ARTICLE II

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT

     Section 2.1. General Terms. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from the Closing Date and until the Maturity Date, Lender agrees to make available to Borrower the credit facility or facilities hereinafter provided for (collectively, the “Credit Facilities” or individually a “Credit Facility”; if there is only one credit facility provided for hereunder, then all references herein to “Credit Facilities” shall be interpreted to refer to such sole credit facility). At Closing, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender the Notes evidencing Borrower’s unconditional obligation to repay Lender for all advances and other extensions of credit made under or in respect of the Credit Facilities, payable to the order of Lender in accordance with the terms in this Agreement and the Notes. The Notes shall bear interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Notes from the date of the Notes until repaid, at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) equal to the Applicable Base Rate, provided that after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default such rate may, in Lender’s discretion, be increased to the Default Rate. Each determination by Lender of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. In the event that Lender has the right to declare an Event of Default hereunder, but elects not to do so, Lender will be entitled, in addition to exercising any other rights and remedies available to it hereunder, to assess a non-compliance fee which shall operate to increase the Applicable Base Rate by two percent (2%) per annum during the continuance of such Event of Default. The non-compliance fee will not be assessed if the Default Rate is being charged hereunder. Each advance and other extension of credit hereunder shall be deemed evidenced by the Notes, which are deemed incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement by this reference.

     Section 2.2. Reserved.

     Section 2.3 Term Facility.

          (a) The term “Maximum Term A Facility Amount” means an amount equal to Twenty-Nine Million Six Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($29,600,000.00). The term “Maximum Term B Facility Amount” means an amount equal to Two Million Two Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,200,000.00). The Maximum Term A Facility Amount together with the Maximum Term B Facility Amount are referred to collectively and in the aggregate as the “Maximum Term Facility Amount”.

          (b) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender hereby agrees to make the following term loans (the “Term Facility”) in the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Maximum Term Facility Amount to Borrower on the Closing Date:

               (i) a term loan in an original principal amount equal to the Maximum Term A Facility Amount (“Term Loan A Facility”); and

               (ii) a term loan in an original principal amount equal to Maximum Term B Facility Amount (“Term Loan B Facility”).

          (c) Until an Event of Default shall have occurred, for all advances made in respect of Term Loan A Facility and all amounts outstanding thereunder, the Applicable Margin is a rate of interest equal to Three and 75/100 Percent (3.75%) per annum (provided, however, that in no event shall the Applicable Base Rate for the Term Loan A Facility fall below six percent (6%) per annum at any time). Until an Event of Default shall have occurred, for all advances made in respect of Term Loan B Facility and all amounts outstanding thereunder, the Applicable Margin is a rate of interest equal to Six and No/100 Percent (6.00%) per annum (provided, however, that in no event shall the Applicable Base Rate for the Term Loan B Facility fall below eight and 50/100 percent (8.50%) per annum at any time).

          (d) The Term Facility shall not be in the nature of a revolving line of credit, but shall include sums advanced and other credit extended by Agent and Lender to or for the benefit of Borrower from time to time under this Section. All such advances and extensions of credit in respect of the Term Facility shall be made or declined in Agent’s discretion. To the extent any Term Facility proceeds are repaid for any reason, whether voluntarily or involuntarily (including repayments from insurance or condemnation proceeds), Lenders shall have no obligation to re-advance such sums to Borrower.

          (e) Principal payable on account of the Term Facility shall be payable by Borrower to Lender in the amounts and at the times set forth in the amortization schedule attached as or described in Schedule B hereto (or sooner upon the acceleration of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement). Interest accrued on the Term Facility shall be due on the earliest of (x) the first day of each month (for the immediately preceding month), computed on the last calendar day of the preceding month, (y) during the continuance of an Event of Default, the day such interest accrues, or (z) the Maturity Date; provided, however, that if any portion of the Term Facility is funded on a date other than the first day of a calendar month, then Borrower shall pay to Lender, on the date of such funding, interest which will accrue on the entire Term Facility (or such lesser portion as shall be funded on such date) during the calendar month of such funding.

          (f) As an inducement to Lender to make the Term Facility available to Borrower, Borrower hereby agrees to pay to Lender a commitment fee equal to the sum of (i) one percent (1.0%) of the Maximum Term A Facility Amount, plus (ii) one percent (1.0%) of the Maximum Term B Facility Amount (such sum, the “Term Facility Commitment Fee”). The Term Facility Commitment Fee shall be due and payable upon Borrower’s execution of this Agreement. In lieu of a higher Term Facility Commitment Fee payable upon execution of this Agreement, on the earliest to occur of (i) the Maturity Date (as the same may be accelerated pursuant to this Agreement), (ii) any prepayment of the Term Facility, or (iii) any Event of Default, Borrower shall pay Lender a deferred commitment fee (such amount, together with any other deferred commitment fee payable under Section 2.2 above, is herein referred to as the “Deferred Commitment Fee”) in the amount of $318,000, provided however, that, provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred, such Deferred Commitment Fee shall be waived in the event the Term Facility is refinanced with the Lender.

          (g) [Intentionally Deleted]

          (h) The Term Facility may not be voluntarily prepaid in full or in part prior to February    , 2005 (the “Lockout Expiration Date”). Thereafter, Borrower shall have the right to make prepayments of the Term Facility, in whole only, and not in part, on any regularly scheduled payment date; provided, however, that Borrower (i) gives Lender at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, (ii) pays all fees and costs due from Borrower to Lender including, without limitation, any attorneys’ fees and disbursements incurred by Lender as a result of the prepayment and all Deferred Commitment Fees or any other fees payable upon any termination of this Agreement, and (iii) pays and performs in full all other Obligations under this Agreement; and provided further, however, that the borrowers under the Affiliated Loan Documents (i) give Lender at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of the termination of such borrowers’ right to request Revolving Credit Loans (as defined in the Affiliated Loan Documents) under the Affiliated Loan Documents, (ii) pays all fees and costs due from the borrowers under the

Affiliated Loan Documents to Lender including, without limitation, any attorneys’ fees and disbursements incurred by Lender as a result of the prepayment and all deferred commitment fees or any other fees payable upon any termination of the Affiliated Loan Documents, and (iii) pays and performs in full all other Obligations (as defined in the Affiliated Loan Documents) under the Affiliated Loan Documents. No prepayment fee or premium (other than the Deferred Commitment Fee) shall be due or payable in connection with any prepayment of the Term Facility made after the Lockout Expiration Date designated in this Section.

          (i) Partial prepayments of the Term Facility shall not be permitted, except partial prepayments resulting from Lender applying insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Term Facility as provided in the Loan Documents, in which event no prepayment fee or premium shall be due. No notice of prepayment shall be required under the circumstance specified in the preceding sentence. No principal amount repaid on the Term Facility may be reborrowed. In the case of prepayments arising from the application of condemnation awards or insurance proceeds, partial payments of principal shall be applied to the unpaid principal balance evidenced hereby on the next succeeding scheduled payment date following Lender’s determination to apply insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the partial prepayment of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Facility, and no notice of such prepayment shall be required.

          (j) For purposes of Section 2.10(b), the Applicable Termination Amount for the Term Facility is one percent (1.0%) of the outstanding balance of the Term Facility on the date of prepayment.

     Section 2.4. Intentionally Blank.

     Section 2.5. Loan Administration.

          (a) All advances and other extensions of credit to or for the benefit of Borrower shall constitute one general obligation of Borrower, and shall be secured by Lender’s Lien upon all of the Collateral.

          (b) Lender shall enter all advances of proceeds under a Credit Facility as debits to a loan account in the name of Borrower and shall also record in said loan account all payments made by Borrower on any Obligations which are indefeasibly paid to Lender, and may record therein, in accordance with customary accounting practice, other debits and credits, including interest and all charges and expenses properly chargeable to Borrower.

          (c) All sums received by Lender for the account of Borrower shall be applied first to fees, costs and expenses due and owing under the Loan Documents, then to interest due and owing under the Loan Documents, and then to principal outstanding with respect to Credit Facilities in such order of application as Lender shall elect in its discretion. During the continuance of any Event of Default hereunder, or following the maturity of the Obligations, all sums received by Lender for the account of Borrower shall be applied to the Obligations in such order as Lender shall elect in its discretion.

          (d) Lender will account to Borrower monthly with a statement of loans, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement, and such accounting rendered by Lender shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower, absent manifest error, unless Lender is notified by Borrower in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) days of the date each accounting is mailed to Borrower. Such notice shall be deemed an objection only to those items specifically objected to in the notice.

     Section 2.6. Additional Fees and General Terms Relating to Fees.

          (a) Borrower shall pay to Lender all fees and expenses in connection with audits of Borrower’s books and records and appraisals of the Collateral and such other matters as Lender shall deem appropriate, which shall be due and payable on the first Business Day of the month following the date of issuance by Lender of a request for payment thereof to Borrower.

          (b) Borrower shall pay to Lender, on demand, any and all fees, costs or expenses which Lender or any participant pays to a bank or other similar institution (including, without limitation, any fees paid by Lender to any participant) arising out of or in connection with (i) the forwarding to Borrower or any other Person on

behalf of Borrower, by Lender, of proceeds of the Credit Facilities made by Lender to Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) the depositing for collection, by Lender or any participant, of any check or item of payment received or delivered to Lender or any participant on account of Obligations.

          (c) For so long as any of the Collateral consists of Real Property, Borrower unconditionally shall pay to Lender an annual Real Property collateral inspection fee (the “Real Property Collateral Fee”) equal to $2,500 for each Location representing costs incurred or to be incurred by Lender for annual inspections of the Real Property. The Real Property Collateral Fee for each Location shall be due and payable upon completion of each inspection and upon submission of proof of such inspection to Borrower.

          (d) All fees due under this Agreement shall be fully earned when due and shall be non-refundable. All fees due under this Agreement shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days unless otherwise expressly provided.

     Section 2.7. Payments.

          (a) Except to the extent otherwise set forth in this Agreement, all payments of principal and of interest on the Credit Facilities, all other charges and any other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, shall be made to Lender to the Concentration Account, in immediately available funds. All payments shall be made without deduction for any set-off, recoupment, counterclaim or defense that Borrower now has or may have in the future.

          (b) In the event that any payment required hereunder is not actually received by the Lender within five (5) calendar days of the date such payment is due, Borrower agrees to pay a late charge equal to three percent (3%) of the total amount of any delinquent payment as liquidated damages in order to defray the increased cost of collection occasioned by such late payment and the lost investment opportunity. Such charges shall be imposed automatically, without any notice to the Borrower or any other person, but not more often than once a month.

     Section 2.8. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of Lender’s advances under the Loan shall be used solely for the Approved Use of Proceeds.

     Section 2.9. Interest Rate Limitation. The parties intend to conform strictly to the applicable usury laws in effect from time to time during the term of the Credit Facilities. Accordingly, if any transaction contemplated by this Agreement would be usurious under such laws, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement: (a) the aggregate of all interest that is contracted for, charged, or received under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document shall not exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law (the “Highest Lawful Rate”), and any excess shall be promptly credited to Borrower by Lender (or, to the extent that such consideration shall have been paid, such excess shall be promptly refunded to Borrower by Lender); (b) neither Borrower nor any other Person now or hereafter liable under this Agreement shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate; and (c) the effective rate of interest for the portion of the Credit Facilities that would otherwise be usurious under applicable laws shall be reduced to the Highest Lawful Rate. All sums paid, or agreed to be paid, to Lender for the use, forbearance, and detention of the debt of Borrower to Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be allocated throughout the full term of the applicable Note until payment is made in full so that the actual rate of interest does not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate in effect at any particular time during the full term thereof. If at any time the rate of interest under the applicable portion of the Credit Facilities exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the rate of interest to accrue pursuant to this Agreement under such portion of the Credit Facilities shall be limited, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the Highest Lawful Rate, but any subsequent reductions in the applicable interest accrual rate shall not reduce the interest to accrue pursuant to this Agreement below the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest accrued equals the amount of interest that would have accrued if the Applicable Base Rate had at all times been in effect. If the total amount of interest paid or accrued pursuant to this Agreement under the foregoing provisions is less than the total amount of interest that would have accrued if the Applicable Base Rate had at all times been in effect, then Borrower agrees to pay to Lender an amount equal to the difference between (x) the lesser of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in

effect, or (B) the amount of interest that would have accrued if the Applicable Base Rate had at all times been in effect, and (y) the amount of interest accrued in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.

     Section 2.10. Term; Prepayment Fees.

     (a) Unless due and payable sooner pursuant to this Agreement, all principal, interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and all other Obligations, shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. Unless sooner terminated pursuant to this Agreement, all obligations of Lender to make any advances in respect of Credit Facilities shall terminate ten (10) days prior to the Maturity Date.

     (b) (i) If prior to any Lockout Expiration Date defined in Sections 2.3 Borrower shall tender payment of an amount sufficient to satisfy all (or any portion) of any Credit Facility described in Section 2.3, if there shall occur any default beyond any applicable notice and/or grace period hereunder prior to any Lockout Expiration Date, then Borrower shall pay, in addition to the amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, a prepayment fee in an amount equal to one percent (1.0%) of the amount prepaid plus the greater of (A) the sum of the Required Yield Maintenance Amounts for each Credit Facility or (B) the sum of the Applicable Termination Amounts for each Credit Facility. For purposes hereof, “Required Yield Maintenance Amount” shall mean an amount (in any event not less than zero) equal to the present value as of the date of prepayment of the remaining scheduled (or estimated as set forth below for revolving credit facilities) payments of principal and interest (assuming a constant Applicable Base Rate equal to the Applicable Base Rate in effect on the date of prepayment) from the date of prepayment through the Maturity Date (including an amount equal to the outstanding principal balance of the Obligations on the Maturity Date) determined by discounting such payments at the Discount Rate (as hereinafter defined) less the amount of principal being prepaid. For purposes of calculating, pursuant to the preceding sentence, scheduled payments of principal and interest and the final principal amount prepaid under any Credit Facility which is a revolving credit facility, Lender shall calculate the average principal amount outstanding under such Credit Facility during the six (6) months preceding prepayment, and shall assume that such amount shall have remained outstanding as principal through the Maturity Date, with no principal payments, that interest shall have accrued thereon at the applicable rate hereunder and that such amount is the principal amount prepaid. The “Discount Rate” is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate (as hereinafter defined), when compounded semi-annually. The “Treasury Rate” is the yield calculated by the linear interpolation of the yields, as reported in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 Selected Interest Rates (the “Release”) under the heading “U.S. Government Securities” and the subheading “Treasury constant maturities” for the week ending prior to the date of prepayment, of U.S. Treasury constant maturities with maturity dates (one longer and one shorter) most nearly approximating the Maturity Date. In the event the Release is no longer published, Lender shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate in its reasonable discretion. Lender shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of the Term Facility unless it is accompanied by the prepayment consideration due in connection therewith.

          (ii) Lender shall deliver to Borrower a statement setting forth the amount and determination of the prepayment fee, and, provided that Lender shall have in good faith applied the formula described above, Borrower shall not have the right to challenge the calculation or the method of calculation set forth in any such statement in the absence of manifest error, which calculation may be made by Lender on any day during the thirty (30) day period preceding the date of such prepayment. Lender shall not be obligated or required to have actually reinvested the prepaid principal balance at the treasury constant maturity yield or otherwise as a condition to receiving the prepayment fee. With regard to any prepayment made hereunder (except for a prepayment resulting from the application of condemnation awards or insurance proceeds by Lender), Borrower shall be required to give Lender at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such prepayment and if such notice has not been received by Lender within such time period, then, the prepayment amount shall be increased by an amount equal to the lesser of (x) thirty (30) days’ unearned interest computed on the outstanding principal balance of the Credit Facilities so prepaid and (y) unearned interest computed on the outstanding principal balance of the Credit Facilities so prepaid for the period from, and including, the date of prepayment through the Maturity Date.

     (c) Except (i) as otherwise expressly provided in the preceding subsection and (ii) for prepayments made by the Borrower after the applicable Lockout Expiration Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the prepayment fees provided above shall be due, to the extent permitted by applicable law, under any and all circumstances where all or any portion of any Credit Facility which is a term loan facility is paid prior to the

Lockout Expiration Date, whether such prepayment is voluntary or involuntary, even if such prepayment results from Lender’s exercise of its rights upon Borrower’s default and acceleration of the Maturity Date of the Credit Facilities (irrespective of whether foreclosure or other enforcement proceedings have been commenced), and shall be in addition to any other sums due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. No tender of a prepayment of a Credit Facility with respect to which a prepayment fee is due shall be effective unless such prepayment is accompanied by the prepayment fee.

          BY INITIALING BELOW, BORROWER WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO PREPAY OR TERMINATE THE CREDIT FACILITIES EXCEPT UNDER THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS AS SET FORTH IN SECTIONS 2.2, 2.3 AND 2.10 AND ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IF ANY CREDIT FACILITY IS PREPAID OR TERMINATED IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BORROWER WILL PAY THE PREPAYMENT CHARGES SET FORTH HEREIN (EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO A PREPAYMENT MADE AFTER THE LOCKOUT EXPIRATION DATE OR A PREPAYMENT RESULTING FROM THE APPLICATION OF CONDEMNATION OR INSURANCE PROCEEDS BY LENDER) AND ALL COSTS AND EXPENSES INCURRED BY LENDER AS A RESULT OF SUCH PREPAYMENT (BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SUCH PREPAYMENT CHARGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE REQUIRED YIELD MAINTENANCE AMOUNT) ARE REASONABLE AND WILL FAIRLY COMPENSATE THE LENDER FOR ANY COSTS AND CHARGES INCURRED BY LENDER AS A RESULT OF THE PREPAYMENT OR TERMINATION OF THE CREDIT FACILITIES). FURTHERMORE, BY INITIALING BELOW, BORROWER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE INCLUSION OF THIS WAIVER OF PREPAYMENT RIGHTS AND AGREEMENT TO PAY THE PREPAYMENT CHARGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE REQUIRED YIELD MAINTENANCE AMOUNT) FOR THE RIGHT TO PREPAY OR TERMINATE THE CREDIT FACILITIES WAS SEPARATELY NEGOTIATED WITH LENDER, THAT THE ECONOMIC VALUE OF THE VARIOUS ELEMENTS OF THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT WAS DISCUSSED, THAT THE CONSIDERATION GIVEN BY BORROWER FOR THE CREDIT FACILITIES WAS ADJUSTED TO REFLECT THE SPECIFIC WAIVER AND AGREEMENT NEGOTIATED BETWEEN BORROWER AND LENDER AND CONTAINED HEREIN, AND THAT THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS IN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. BORROWER FURTHER SPECIFICALLY COVENANTS AND AGREES THAT NO CREDIT FACILITY HEREUNDER MAY BE TERMINATED WITHOUT PAYMENT IN FULL OF ALL OBLIGATIONS UNDER ALL CREDIT FACILITIES UNDER THE AFFILIATED LOAN DOCUMENTS, IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER BORROWER HAS PAID THE APPLICABLE PREPAYMENT FEES ASSOCIATED WITH TERMINATION OF THE SUCH CREDIT FACILITIES, IT BEING THE INTENTION OF BORROWER AND LENDER THAT LENDER SHALL HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO RELEASE ANY LIENS OR COLLATERAL SECURING ANY CREDIT FACILITY HEREUNDER UNTIL SUCH TIME AS ALL OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER (INCLUDING ALL OBLIGATIONS ARISING IN RESPECT OF ALL CREDIT FACILITIES) AND ALL OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE AFFILIATED LOAN DOCUMENTS (INCLUDING ALL OBLIGATIONS ARISING IN RESPECT OF ALL CREDIT FACILITIES UNDER THE AFFILIATED LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL HAVE BEEN PAID AND PERFORMED IN FULL.

     (d) All undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties, and representations of Borrower contained in the Loan Documents shall survive any termination of the Lender’s obligation to make any advances in respect of Credit Facilities hereunder and Lender shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents notwithstanding such termination until Borrower has paid the Obligations to Lender, in full, in immediately available funds.

     (e) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement which makes reference to the continuance of an

     Section 5.6. Taxes and Charges. Borrower will timely file all tax reports and pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon Borrower, or its income or profits or upon its properties or any part thereof (collectively, “Charges”), before the same shall be in default and before the date on which penalties attach thereto, as well as all lawful claims for labor, material, supplies or otherwise (collectively, “Mechanics Claims”) which, if unpaid, might become a Lien or charge upon the properties or any part thereof of Borrower. Borrower shall have the right to contest, in good faith by appropriate proceedings, the amount or validity of any such Charges or Mechanics Claims so long as: (i) Borrower shall have set aside on its books adequate reserve therefor in accordance with GAAP; (ii) Borrower’s title to, and its right to use, the Collateral is not adversely affected thereby and Lender’s Lien and priority on the Collateral are not adversely affected, altered or impaired thereby; (iii) Borrower has given prior written notice to Lender of Borrower’s intent to so contest or object to any such Charges or Mechanics Claims; (iv) such contest stays the enforcement or collection of the Charges and Mechanics Claims or any Lien created; and (v) in the case of real estate taxes or assessments or Mechanics Claims, Borrower has obtained an endorsement, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, to the loan policy of title insurance issued to Lender insuring over any Lien created by such Charges or Mechanics Claims, or Borrower has deposited with Lender a bond or other security satisfactory to Lender in an amount sufficient to entirely eliminate any Lien for such Charges or Mechanics Claims as a Lien against the Real Property. Should any stamp tax, intangible tax, intangible recording tax or other tax (excluding income, franchise, gross receipts or similar taxes with respect to Lender), now or hereafter become payable with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Borrower will pay the tax before its due date and hold Lender harmless from the cost of the tax. If Borrower fails to commence any contest permitted under this Section or, having commenced to contest the same,

and having deposited such security required by Lender for its full amount, shall thereafter fail to prosecute such contest in good faith or with due diligence, or, upon adverse conclusion of any such contest, shall fail to pay such tax, assessment or charge, Lender may, at its election (but shall not be required to), pay and discharge any such tax, assessment or charge, and any interest or penalty thereon, and any amounts so expended by Lender shall be deemed to constitute disbursements of the proceeds of the Credit Facilities hereunder (or such Credit Facility as Lender shall elect), even if the total amount of disbursements would exceed the face amount of the Notes.

     Section 5.7. Insurance. Borrower shall carry adequate casualty, theft (including burglary, pilferage and loss in transit), business interruption, public liability, professional liability, automobile, employee dishonesty and workmens compensation insurance with responsible companies reasonably satisfactory to Lender in such amounts and against such risks as is customarily maintained by similar businesses and by owners of similar property in the same general area; provided, however, that Borrower shall, at a minimum, carry insurance of the kind and in the amounts shown in Schedule C. Borrower shall deliver to Lender endorsements to all of its (a) casualty and business interruption insurance policies naming Lender as sole loss payee (and mortgagee to the extent the insurance pertains to Real Property), and (b) general liability and other liability policies naming Lender as an additional insured. Borrower shall direct all present and future insurers under its casualty policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder (to the extent applicable to the Collateral) directly to Lender unless otherwise permitted hereunder

If any insurance proceeds are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to Borrower and Lender jointly, Lender may endorse Borrower’s name thereon and do such other things as Lender may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash. Lender reserves the right at any time, upon review of Borrower’s risk profile, to require additional Forms and limits of insurance to adequately protect Lender’s interests in accordance with Lender’s normal practice for similarly situated borrowers. Borrower shall, on each anniversary of the Closing Date and from time to time at Lender’s request, cooperate with Lender in obtaining a report by a reputable insurance broker, satisfactory to Lender, with respect to Borrower’s insurance policies. Borrower shall not carry separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained under this Section. Borrower shall timely pay all insurance premiums, and in any event prior to the expiration of any policy of insurance. Borrower shall, at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of any policies of insurance, furnish to Lender, premiums prepaid, additional and renewal insurance policies with companies, coverage and in amounts required hereunder. The Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of any loss, damage, or destruction to the Collateral, whether or not covered by insurance. Lender is hereby authorized to collect all insurance proceeds in respect of the Collateral directly and to apply the same to the Obligations whether or not then due and payable unless otherwise set forth to the contrary herein. Lender is authorized and empowered, and Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact (such appointment is coupled with an interest), at its option, to make or file proofs of loss or damage and to settle and adjust any claim under insurance policies which insure against such risks, or to direct Borrower, in writing, to agree with the insurance carrier(s) on the amount to be paid in regard to such loss in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 8.6. Borrower shall not bring or keep any article on any Location or Real Property or cause or allow any condition to exist on it, if that could invalidate or would be prohibited by any insurance coverage required to be maintained by Borrower on the Locations or Real Property. Unless Borrower provides Lender with appropriate evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration thereof, Lender may purchase insurance at Borrower’s expense to protect Lender’s interests in the Locations and Collateral and to maintain the insurance required by this Agreement and any sums so expended by Lender shall be deemed advances to Borrower under the Credit Facilities (such Credit Facility as Lender may elect) and shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower. This insurance may, but need not, protect Borrower’s interests. The coverage purchased by Lender may not pay any claim made by Borrower or any claim that is made against Borrower in connection with any Collateral or Location or any required insurance policy. The effective date of coverage may be the date the prior coverage lapsed or the date on which Borrower failed to provide Lender proof of coverage. Borrower may later, but only with Lender’s prior written consent, cancel any insurance purchased by Lender, but only after providing Lender with appropriate evidence, as determined by Lender, that Borrower has obtained insurance as required by this Agreement.

     Section 5.8. Information; Visits and Inspections. Borrower shall furnish to Lender such information as Lender may, from time to time, reasonably request with respect to the business or financial affairs of Borrower.

Lender has no duty, however, to visit or observe the Borrower or its properties or to conduct tests, and no site visit, observation or testing by Lender, its officers, employees, agents or representatives shall impose any liability on any of Lender, its officers, employees, agents or representatives. Neither Borrower nor any other party is entitled to rely on any site visit, observation or testing by any of Lender, its officers, employees, agents or representatives. Neither Lender, its officers, employees, agents nor representatives owe any duty of care to protect Borrower or any other party against, or to inform Borrower or any other party of any other adverse condition affecting the Borrower or its properties.

     Section 8.2. Reserves and Escrows.

          (a). Requirements. Borrower agrees to establish and maintain all of the reserves and escrows required in this Section. Interest shall be payable on any funds reserved or escrowed hereunder. All sums so reserved or escrowed may be commingled with the general funds of Lender and no such sums shall be deemed to be held in trust for the benefit of Borrower. All sums so reserved or escrowed shall be part of the Collateral and shall stand as additional security for all of the Obligations. Borrower hereby grants Lender a first priority lien on and perfected security interest in such funds, including all interest accruing thereon, and Borrower shall execute any other documents and take any other actions necessary to provide Lender with such a perfected security interest in such funds. If Lender at any time determines that the amount on deposit in any reserve or escrow is insufficient for its intended purposes, Borrower shall, within ten (10) days following notice from Lender, deposit such additional sums as may be required by Lender. If an Event of Default exists, Lender may, at its discretion, apply amounts on hand in the reserves or escrows to cure such Event of Default. Upon demand of Lender, Borrower shall replenish the applicable reserve or escrow to restore any sums so applied by Lender. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and/or the maturity of any portion of the Obligations, the moneys then remaining on deposit with Lender or its agent shall, at Lender’s option, be applied against the Obligations.

          (b) Real Property Taxes. At the time of and in addition to the monthly installments of principal and/or interest due under the Notes, Borrower shall pay to Lender a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the amount estimated by Lender to be sufficient (when aggregated with an initial deposit to be designated by Lender and paid by Borrower to Lender at Closing or otherwise upon demand of Lender) to pay at least sixty (60) days before they become due and payable, all taxes, assessments and other similar charges levied against the Real Property (collectively, the “Taxes”). In the event the Real Property or any portion thereof is part of a larger tract for purposes of taxation and assessments, Lender may require the Borrower to have the Real Property taxed and assessed as a separate parcel or separate parcels, or, in the alternative, to make the deposits required under this section based upon the taxation and assessment of the larger tract. So long as no Event of Default exists hereunder, Lender shall apply the escrows sums to pay the Taxes. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, the obligation of Borrower to pay the Taxes is not affected or modified by the provisions of this paragraph.

          (c) Reserved.

          (d) Replacement Reserve. Except as provided below in this subsection (d), at the time of and in addition to the monthly installments of interest, and if applicable, principal and other payments due under the Notes and this Agreement, Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to the product of Twenty Five and 00/100 Dollars ($25.00) multiplied by the aggregate number of beds in the Real Property (the “Replacement Reserve”). So long as there is no continuing Event of Default, Borrower may request Lender to disburse funds from the Replacement Reserve (which request will include a reasonably detailed description of the capital expenditures at the Real Property which Borrower intends to pay for with such funds), which request shall not be unreasonably denied by Lender. If requested by Lender, each disbursement request will be accompanied by copies of invoices, lien waivers and other evidence reasonably required by Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender hereby suspends Borrower’s obligation to fund the Replacement Reserve so long as, commencing no later than forty-five (45) days after the beginning of the second Loan Year and continuing on the 45th day after each Loan Year thereafter, Borrower demonstrates to the Lender’s sole satisfaction that capital expenditures for the Real Property equal to or in excess of $300 per bed for such preceding Loan Year have been made.

          (e) Debt Service Reserve. A portion of the proceeds of the Term Facility in the amount of Two Hundred Ten Thousand Six Hundred Eighty Two and 43/100 DOLLARS ($210,682.43) shall be advanced by Lender on the Closing Date into a reserve to pay interest and principal coming due under the Term Facility (the “Debt Service Reserve”). All amounts on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve shall be held by Lender as additional collateral for the Credit Facilities. Borrower shall have no right to require (or expect) Lender to disburse funds therefrom to pay debt service and, to the extent Lender elects, in its sole discretion, to disburse funds from the Debt Service Reserve to pay Borrower’s debt service under the Term Facility or any other portion of the Obligations, Borrower shall be obligated to promptly re-deposit all such funds into the Debt Service Reserve upon demand by

Lender, Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligation to timely pay all interest and principal as it comes due. All sums reserved by Lender in the Debt Service Reserve may be commingled with the genera! funds of Lender and no such sums shall be deemed to be held in trust for the benefit of Borrower. Lender shall hold the funds in the Debt Service Reserve in an interest-bearing account. Borrower hereby grants Lender a first priority lien on and security interest in any interest Borrower may have in such funds, including all interest accruing thereon, and all such funds are pledged as additional collateral for the Loan and Borrower shall execute any other documents and take any other actions necessary to provide Lender with such a perfected security interest in such funds. Upon the Maturity Date or at any time following an Event of Default, the moneys then remaining on deposit with Lender or its agent shall, at Lender’s option, be applied against the Obligations.

          (i) Use of Real Property. Unless required by applicable Law, Borrower shall not permit changes in the use of any Real Property from the use at the time this Agreement was executed. Borrower shall neither initiate nor acquiesce in a change in the plat of subdivision, or zoning classification or use of any Real Property without Lender’s prior written consent nor shall it grant any encumbrances or easements burdening any Real Property (other than utility easements in the ordinary course of business).

          (j) No Commingling of Funds. Each Borrower shall not commingle (or permit the commingling of) the funds related to the Real Property with funds from any other property which is not subject to a Lien of the Loan Documents.

          (k) Maintenance and Preservation of the Real Property. Borrower shall keep the Real Property in good condition and repair and if all or part of any the Real Property becomes damaged or destroyed, Borrower shall promptly and completely repair and/or restore such Real Property in a good and workmanlike manner in accordance with sound building practices, subject to Lender disbursing Insurance Proceeds or other sums to pay costs of the work of repair or reconstruction under this Agreement.

Borrower shall not (nor shall it permit any tenant to), without the prior written consent of Lender, sell, assign, transfer, encumber, remove or permit to be removed from any Real Property any of the Personal Property. So long as no Event of Default exists, Borrower may sell or otherwise dispose of the Personal Property when obsolete, worn out, inadequate, unserviceable or unnecessary for use in the operation of the Real Property, but only upon replacing the same with other Personal Property at least equal in value and utility to the Personal Property that is disposed (to the extent such replacement property is necessary).

          (b) Appraisals. Lender shall have the right to obtain a new or updated Appraisal of any Real Property from time to time. Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in this regard.

          (c) Single Purpose Entity. Borrower is, and at all times shall remain, a Single Purpose Entity and shall comply with the requirements set forth on Schedule 1-SPE attached hereto until after the Obligations have been repaid in full.

          (d) Reserved.

          (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 8.6(b) below, Lender may elect to collect, retain and apply upon the Obligations of Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents all proceeds of insurance resulting from any loss at any Real Property or condemnation awards awarded in connection with a condemnation or other taking of any Real Property or a portion thereof (individually and collectively referred to as “Insurance Proceeds”) after deduction of all expenses of collection and settlement, including attorneys’ and adjusters’ fees and charges. Any Insurance Proceeds remaining after repayment of the Obligations shall be paid by Lender to Borrower.

          (b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 8.6(a) to the contrary, in the event of any casualty to any Improvements or any condemnation of part of any Real Property, Lender agrees to make available the Insurance Proceeds to restoration of such Improvements if (i) no Event of Default exists, (ii) all Insurance Proceeds are deposited with Lender, (iii) in Lender’s reasonable judgment, the amount of Insurance Proceeds available for restoration of such Improvements is sufficient to pay the full and complete costs of such restoration, (iv) in the event the cost of restoration exceeds ten percent (10%) of the Term Facility, then only if in Lender’s sole determination the Term Facility will not exceed seventy five percent (75%) of the fair market value of the Real Property after completion of restoration, (v) in Lender’s reasonable determination, such Real Property can be restored to an architecturally and economically viable project in compliance with applicable Laws, (vi) each Guarantor reaffirms any Guaranty and any other Loan Document to which it is a party, in writing, (vii) in Lender’s reasonable determination, such restoration is likely to be completed not later than six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, and (viii) the cost of restoration of the Improvements at such Real Property does not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the Term Facility attributed by Lender to such Real Property as identified on Schedule 8.6(b) of the Information Certificate.

          (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 8.5(a) and 8.5(b) above, if as a result of any casualty to or condemnation of any Improvements the cost to repair and restore does not exceed $250,000.00, and so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, then Borrower shall be entitled to receive the Insurance Proceeds attributable thereto, provided, however, that Borrower shall use the Insurance Proceeds to restore or rebuild such Improvements to their condition prior to such casualty or condemnation.

     Section 8.7 Borrower’s Obligation to Rebuild and Use of Insurance Proceeds Therefor.

          (a) In case Lender does not elect to apply or does not have the right to apply the Insurance Proceeds to the Obligations, as provided in Section 8.6 above, Borrower shall:

               (i) Proceed with diligence to make settlement with insurers or the appropriate governmental authorities and cause the Insurance Proceeds to be deposited with Lender;

               (ii) Reserved;

               (iii) In the event the Insurance Proceeds and the available proceeds of the Loans are insufficient to assure Lender that the all contemplated repairs or construction will be completed, promptly deposit with Lender any amount necessary to assure that such contemplated repairs or construction will be completed; and

               (iv) Promptly proceed with the assumption of construction of the Improvements, including the repair of all damage resulting from such fire, condemnation or other cause and restoration to its former condition.

          (b) Any request by Borrower for a disbursement by Lender of Insurance Proceeds and funds deposited by Borrower shall be treated by Lender as if such request were for an advance of the Loans hereunder, and the disbursement thereof shall be conditioned upon Borrower’s compliance with and satisfaction of the same conditions precedent as would be applicable under this Agreement for an advance of the Loans.

          (c) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the damage to the Real Property does not exceed $250,000.00 and so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may settle and adjust any claim without the consent of Lender and agree with the insurance company or companies on the amount of Insurance Proceeds to be paid upon the loss, provided that such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner. Any monies collected under this subsection (c)(i) shall be applied in accordance with Section 8.6 above.

               (ii) If the damage to the Real Property exceeds §250,000.00, and so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may settle and adjust any claim with the consent of Lender and agree with the insurance company or companies on the amount of Insurance Proceeds to be paid upon the loss, provided that such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner. Any monies collected under this subsection (c)(ii) shall be applied in accordance with Section 8.6 above.

               (iii) If a Default has occurred and is continuing, then Lender may elect to file the respective proof of loss, settle and adjust any claim with respect to any damage to the Real Property without the consent of Borrower and agree with the insurance company on the amount of the Insurance Proceeds in the place and stead of Borrower and without the consent of Borrower. In addition, Lender shall act in a commercially reasonable manner if Lender elects to settle or adjust any claim under the provisions of this subparagraph (iii); provided, however, that so long as Lender retains a third party to settle or adjust such claim on behalf of Lender, Lender shall be deemed to have acted in a commercially reasonable manner. Borrower hereby releases Lender from any and all liability with respect to the settlement and adjustment by Lender of any claims in respect of any casualty.

ARTICLE IX

HEALTHCARE MATTERS

     Section 9.1 Healthcare Matters. Without limiting the generality of any representation or warranty made in Article IV or any covenant made in Articles V or VI, each Borrower represents and warrants to and covenants with Lender, and shall be deemed to represent, warrant and covenant on each day on which any advance or accommodation in respect of a Credit Facility is requested or made or any Obligations shall be outstanding under this Agreement, that:

          (a) Funds from Restricted_Grants. Except as described on Schedule 9.1(a) of the Information Certificate, none of the Real Property or the Collateral is subject to, and Borrower shall indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and against, any liability in respect of amounts received by Borrower or others for the purchase or improvement of the Real Property or Collateral or any part thereof under restricted or conditioned grants or donations, including, without limitation, monies received under the Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 291 et seq.

          (b) Certificate of Need. If required under applicable Law, each Borrower has and shall maintain in full force and effect a valid certificate of need (“CON”) or similar certificate, license, or approval issued by the State Regulator for the requisite number of beds in each Real Property. All material required Government Approvals held in Borrower’s name and necessary for the operation of the Location or the Real Property are listed on Schedule 9.1(b) of the Information Certificate (collectively, together with any CON, the “Licenses”). Borrower shall cause to be operated the Location and the Real Property in a manner such that the Licenses shall remain in full force and effect at all times. True and complete copies of the Licenses have been delivered to Lender.

          (c) Licenses. The Licenses: (i) are and shall continue in full force and effect at all times throughout the term of the Credit Facilities and are and shall be free from restrictions or known conflicts which would materially impair the use or operation of any Real Property for its current use, and are not and shall not be provisional, probationary, conditional or restricted in any way; (ii) may not be, and have not been, and will not be transferred to any location other than the Real Property; and (iii) have not been and will not be pledged as collateral security for any other loan or indebtedness. No Borrower shall do (or suffer to be done) any of the following:

               (i) Rescind, withdraw, revoke, amend, modify, supplement, or otherwise alter the nature, tenor or scope of the Licenses for any Real Property without Lender’s prior written consent;

               (ii) Amend or otherwise change any Real Property’s authorized beds capacity and/or the number of beds approved by the State Regulator without Lender’s prior written consent; or

               (iii) Replace or transfer all or any part of any Real Property’s beds to another site or location (other than to any other Real Property) without Lender’s prior written consent.

          (d) Further Assurances. From time to time, upon the reasonable request of Lender, upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall, and shall cause each Borrower to complete, execute and deliver to Lender any appropriate and applicable applications, notices, documentation, and other information necessary, in Lender’s reasonable judgment, to permit Lender or its designee (including a receiver) to obtain, maintain or renew any one or more of the Licenses for any Borrower or Location or to become the owner of the existing Licenses for any Borrower or Location and, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, to obtain any other provider agreements or Governmental Approvals then necessary or desirable for the operation of any Location by Lender or its designee for their current use (including, without limitation, any applications for change of ownership of the existing Licenses or change of control of the owner of the existing Licenses). To the extent permitted by applicable Laws, and only upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) Lender is hereby authorized (without the consent of Borrower) to submit any such applications, notices, documentation or other information which Borrower caused to be delivered to Lender in accordance with the above provisions to the applicable Governmental Authorities, or to take such other steps as Lender may deem advisable to obtain, maintain or renew any License or other Governmental Approvals in connection with the operation of the Locations for their current use, and Borrower agrees to cooperate with Lender in connection with the same and (ii) Borrower, upon demand by Lender, shall take (or cause to be taken) any action necessary or desirable, in Lender’s sole judgment (acting in accordance with applicable law), to permit Lender or its designee (including a receiver) to use, operate and maintain

any Location for its current use. If Borrower fails to comply with the provisions of this subsection (d) for any reason whatsoever, Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender and its designee as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to take any action and execute any documents and instruments necessary or desirable in Lender’s sole judgment to permit Lender or its designee to undertake Borrower’s obligations under this subsection (d), including obtaining any Licenses or Governmental Approvals then required for the operation of any Location by Lender or its designee for its current use. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable and Lender may exercise its rights thereunder in addition to any other remedies which Lender may have against Borrower or Guarantor as a result of a Borrower’s breach of the obligations contained in this Section.

          (v) Transfer of Licenses. To the Borrower’s knowledge, in the event any Operating Lease is terminated or in the event of foreclosure or other acquisition of any Real Property by Lender or its designee or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale, Borrower, Lender, or any subsequent purchaser need not obtain a CON from any applicable state healthcare regulatory authority or agency (other than giving such notice required under the applicable state law or regulation) prior to applying for and receiving a license to operate the Real Property and certification to receive Medicare and Medicaid payments (and any successor program) for patients having coverage thereunder, provided that neither the services offered at the Real Property nor the number of beds operated would be changed. Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in all respects to cause all Licenses to be reissued or transferred to Lender or Lender’s designee, including, without limitation, any subsequent manager or any subsequent purchaser.

          (a) Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender, in addition to all other rights, options, and remedies granted to Lender under this Agreement or at law or in equity, may take any of the following steps (which list is given by way of example and is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all such rights and remedies):

               (i) Terminate the Credit Facilities, whereupon all outstanding Obligations (including, without limitation any Deferred Commitment Fees or any other fees due upon any termination of this Agreement) shall be immediately due and payable;

               (ii) Exercise all other rights granted to it under this Agreement and all rights under the UCC in effect in the applicable jurisdiction(s) and under any other applicable law; and

               (iii) Exercise all rights and remedies under all Loan Documents now or hereafter in effect, including but not limited to:

                    (A) The right to take possession of, send notices regarding, and collect directly the Collateral, with or without judicial process;

                    (B) The right to (by its own means or with judicial assistance) enter any of Borrower’s premises and take possession of the Collateral, or render it unusable, or dispose of the Collateral on such premises in compliance with subsection (C) below, without any liability for rent, storage, utilities, or other sums, and Borrower shall not resist or interfere with such action;

                    (C) The right to require Borrower at Borrower’s expense to assemble all or any part of the Collateral and make it available to Lender at any place designated by Lender;

                    (D) The right to reduce the Maximum Term Facility Amount or to use the Collateral and/or funds in the Concentration Account in amounts up to the Maximum Term Facility Amount for any reason; and

                    (E) The right to enforce Borrower’s rights against Account Debtors and other obligors, including, but not limited to, the right to collect Accounts directly in Lender’s own name and to charge the collection costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to Borrower.

          (b) Borrower agrees that a notice received by it at least ten (10) days before the time of any intended public sale, or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of the Personal Property is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition. If permitted by applicable law, any perishable Personal Property which threatens to speedily decline in value or which is sold on a recognized market may be sold immediately by Lender without prior notice to Borrower. At any sale or disposition of Personal Property, Lender may (to the extent permitted by applicable law) purchase all or any part of the Personal Property, free from any right of redemption by Borrower, which right is hereby waived and released. Borrower covenants and agrees not to interfere with or impose any obstacle to Lender’s exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral. Lender shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. Lender may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. Lender may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. Lender may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If Lender sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Borrower will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Lender and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Lender may resell the Collateral and Borrower shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale. Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations.

          (c) Without restricting the generality of the foregoing and for the purposes aforesaid, Borrower hereby appoints and constitutes Lender its lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution in the Property to use unadvanced funds remaining under the Notes or which may be reserved, escrowed or set aside for any purposes hereunder at any time, or to advance funds in excess of the face amount of the Notes, to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims, which may be liens or security interests, or to avoid such bills and claims becoming liens against the Collateral; to execute all applications and certificates in the name of Borrower prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the Collateral (including any Leases pertaining to Real Property); and to do any and every act which the Borrower might do in its own behalf; it being understood and agreed that this power of attorney shall be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked.

     Section 10.4. Nature of Remedies. Lender shall have the right to proceed against all or any portion of the Collateral to satisfy in any order (a) the liabilities and Obligations of Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates to Lender or any Affiliate of Lender under this Agreement or any other loan documents evidencing financings provided to Borrower or (b) the liabilities and obligations of Borrower, Guarantor and their respective Affiliates to Lender under the Affiliated Loan Documents. All rights and remedies granted Lender under this Agreement and under any agreement referred to in this Agreement, or otherwise available at law or in equity, shall be deemed concurrent and cumulative, and not alternative remedies, and Lender may proceed with any number of remedies at the same time until the Loan, and all other existing and future liabilities and obligations of Borrower to

Lender, are satisfied in full. The exercise of any one right or remedy shall not be deemed a waiver or release of any other right or remedy, and Lender, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, may proceed against Borrower, and/or the Collateral, at any time, under any agreement, with any available remedy and in any order. All sums received from Borrower and/or the Collateral in respect of the Loan may be applied by Lender to the any other liabilities and obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents and the Affiliated Loan Documents in such order of application and in such amounts as Lender shall deem appropriate in its discretion. Borrower waives any right it may have to require Lender to pursue any Person for any of the Obligations.

     Section 10.5. Waivers by Borrower.

          (a) Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower waives: (a) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of presentment, dishonor, intent to accelerate, acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all Loan Documents, the Notes or any other notes, commercial paper, Accounts, contracts, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Lender on which Borrower may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Lender may do in this regard; (b) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Lender’s taking possession or control of, or to Lender’s replevy, attachment or levy upon, any Collateral or any bond or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Lender to exercise any of its remedies; and (c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and exemption Laws. Borrower acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel of its choices and decisions with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the transactions evidenced hereby and thereby.

          (b) Borrower for itself and all endorsers, guarantors and sureties and their heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns, (i) agrees that its liability shall not be in any manner affected by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver, or modification granted or consented to by Lender; (ii) consents to any indulgences and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that may be granted by Lender with respect to the payment or other provisions of this Loan Agreement, the Note, and to any substitution, exchange or release of the collateral, or any part thereof, with or without substitution, and agrees to the addition or release of any Borrower, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties, or whether primarily or secondarily liable, without notice to Borrower and without affecting its liability hereunder; (iii) agrees that its liability shall be unconditional and without regard to the liability of any other tax; and (iv) expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law or equity now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing.

          (c) Each and every covenant and condition for the benefit of Lender contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be waived by Lender; provided, however, that to the extent that Lender may have acquiesced in any noncompliance with any requirements or conditions precedent to the Closing of the Credit Facilities or to any subsequent disbursement of Credit Facility proceeds, such acquiescence shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by Lender of such requirements with respect to any future disbursements of Loan proceeds and Lender may at any time after such acquiescence require Borrower to comply with all such requirements. Any forbearance by Lender in exercising any right or remedy under any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise afforded by applicable law, including any failure to accelerate the Maturity Date shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy nor shall it serve as a novation of the Note or as a reinstatement of the Loan or a waiver of such right of acceleration or the right to insist upon strict compliance of the terms of the Loan Documents. Lender’s acceptance of payment of any sum secured by any of the Loan Documents after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver of Lender’s right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment. The procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes or other liens or charges by Lender shall not be a waiver of Lender’s right to accelerate the maturity of the Loan, nor shall Lender’s receipt of any condemnation awards, insurance proceeds, or damages under this Agreement of this Agreement operate to cure or waive Borrower’s or Guarantor’s default in payment of sums secured by any of the Loan Documents.

          (d) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Collateral and any other

properties owned by Borrower and the Loan Documents and other security instruments or agreements securing the Loans has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of Borrower’s obligations under the Notes.

          (e) Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any part of the Collateral for the satisfaction of any of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents in preference or priority to any other Collateral, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of all of the Collateral or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose upon any Collateral in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Loan Documents then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose upon all or any part of the Collateral to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Notes, Lender may foreclose all or any part of the Collateral to recover so much of the principal balance of the Notes as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by one or more of the Security Instrument as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, any unforeclosed Collateral shall remain subject to the Loan Documents to secure payment of sums secured by the Loan Documents and not previously recovered.

          (f) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Collateral any equitable right otherwise available to Borrower which would require the separate sale of the any of the Collateral or require Lender to exhaust its remedies against any part of the Collateral before proceeding against any other part of the Collateral; and further in the event of such foreclosure Borrower does hereby expressly consents to and authorizes, at the option of Lender, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of each part of the Collateral.

     Section 10.6 Injunctive Relief.

     The parties acknowledge and agree that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any Credit Party’s obligations under any Loan Documents, Lender may have no adequate remedy in money damages and, accordingly, shall be entitled to an injunction (including without limitation, a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, writ of attachment, or order compelling an audit) against such breach or threatened breach, including without limitation, maintaining the cash management and collection procedure described herein. However, no specification in this Agreement of a specific legal or equitable remedy shall be construed as a waiver or prohibition against any other legal or equitable remedies in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement. Each Credit Party waives the requirement of the posting of any bond in connection with such injunctive relief.

     Section 10.7. Marshalling.

     Lender shall have no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party, or against or in payment of any of the other Obligations or any other obligation owed to Lender by any Credit Party.

     Section 10.8. Recourse to Borrower.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Credit Facilities shall be fully recourse to Borrower, and Lender shall be authorized, in its sole and absolute discretion, to enforce any or all of its remedies hereunder against Borrower, including all present and future revenue and assets of Borrower, whether or not such assets have been pledged as collateral for the Credit Facilities.

ARTICLE XI

SECURITIZATION PROVISIONS

     Section 11.1 Sale of Mortgages and Securitization.

          (a) Lender shall have the right (i) to sell or otherwise transfer the Loans or any portion thereof as a whole loan, (ii) to sell participation interests in the Loans, or (iii) to securitize the Loans or any portion thereof in a single asset securitization or a pooled loan securitization. (The transactions referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) shall hereinafter be referred to collectively as “Secondary Market Transactions” and the transactions referred to in clause (iii) shall hereinafter be referred to as a “Securitization”. Any certificates, notes or other securities issued in connection with a Securitization are hereinafter referred to as “Securities”.)

          (b) If requested by Lender, Borrower shall assist Lender, at Borrower’s reasonable expense not to exceed $25,000 in the aggregate, in satisfying the market standards to which Lender customarily adheres or which may be required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with any Secondary Market Transactions, including to:

               (i) (A) provide updated (and, if so required by the Rating Agencies, additional) financial and other information with respect to the Land, the business operated at the Land, the Real Property, Borrower, Guarantor, and Managers, (B) provide updated budgets relating to the Location, and (C) provide updated appraisals, market studies, environmental reviews (Phase I’s and, if appropriate, Phase II’s), property condition reports and other due diligence investigations of the Location (the “Updated Information”), together, if customary, with appropriate verification of the Updated Information through letters of auditors or opinions of counsel acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies;

               (ii) provide opinions of counsel, which may be relied upon by Lender, the Rating Agencies and their respective counsel, agents and representatives, as to non-consolidation, fraudulent conveyance and true sale or any other opinion customary in Secondary Market Transactions or required by the Rating Agencies with respect to the Property and Borrower and its Affiliates, including, without limitation, reissuing opinions delivered on the Closing Date addressed to Lender’s successors in the Loan, which counsel and opinions shall be satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies; and

               (iii) provide updated, as of the closing date of the Secondary Market Transaction, representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents; and

               (iv) execute amendments to the Loan Documents requested by Lender; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to modify or amend any Loan Document if such modification or amendment would have the effect of changing any material term of this Agreement.

     Section 11.2 Securitization Indemnification.

          (a) Borrower understands that information provided to Lender by Borrower, Guarantor and their respective agents, counsel and representatives may be included in disclosure documents in connection with the Securitization, including an offering circular, a prospectus, prospectus supplement, private placement memorandum or other offering document (each, a “Disclosure Document”) and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and may be made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies and service providers relating to the Securitization.

          (b) Borrower shall provide in connection with each of (i) a preliminary and a final private placement memorandum or (ii) a preliminary and final prospectus or prospectus supplement, as applicable, an agreement (A) certifying that Borrower has examined such Disclosure Documents specified by Lender and that each such Disclosure Document, as it relates to Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable (and each of their respective Affiliates), the Land, the Real Property, Manager, and all other aspects of the Loans, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (B) indemnifying Lender (and for purposes of this section, Lender hereunder shall include its officers and directors), the Affiliate of Lender that has filed the registration statement relating to the Securitization (the “Registration Statement”), each of its directors, each of its

officers who have signed the Registration Statement and each person (or entity) that controls such Affiliate of Lender within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Lender Group”), and any other placement agent or underwriter with respect to the Securitization, each of their respective directors and each Person who controls Lender or any other placement agent or underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Group”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which Lender, the Lender Group or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement of any material fact contained in such sections or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such sections or necessary in order to make the statements in such sections, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (C) agreeing to reimburse Lender, the Lender Group and/or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Lender Group and/or the Underwriter Group in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (B) or (C) above only to the extent that any such Liability arises out of, or is based upon, any such untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower or Guarantor in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Document or in connection with the underwriting or Closing of the Loans, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower or Guarantor, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have.

          (c) In connection with any Exchange Act Filing, Borrower shall (i) indemnify Lender, the Lender Group and the Underwriter Group for Liabilities to which Lender, the Lender Group and/or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, the omission to state in the Disclosure Document a material fact required to be stated in the Disclosure Document in order to make the statements in the Disclosure Document, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (ii) reimburse Lender, the Lender Group and/or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Lender Group and/or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities.

          (d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 11.2 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 11.2, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 11.2, such indemnified party shall pay for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party at the cost of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party.

          (e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in Section 11.2 is for any reason held to be unenforceable as to an indemnified party in respect of any Liabilities (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under Section 11.2, the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 1l(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to

contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) Lender’s and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.

          (f) The liabilities and obligations of both Borrower and Lender under this Article 11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Obligations.

     Section 11.3 Rating Surveillance.

     Lender will retain the Rating Agencies to provide rating surveillance services on any certificates issued in a Securitization. Such rating surveillance will be at the expense of Borrower, but such expenses shall be included under the expenses which are capped in Section 11.l(b) hereof in the aggregate.

     Section 11.4 Severance Documentation.

     Lender shall have the right, at any time (whether prior to or after any sale, participation or Securitization of all or any portion of the Loans), to modify the Loans in order to create one or more senior and subordinate notes (i.e., an A/B or A/B/C structure) and/or one or more additional components of any Note or Notes, reduce the number of components of any Note or Notes, revise the interest rate for each component, reallocate the principal balances of the Notes and/or the components, increase or decrease the monthly debt service payments for each component or eliminate the component structure and/or the multiple note structure of the Loan (including the elimination of the related allocations of principal and interest payments); provided, however, that the outstanding principal balance of all components immediately after the effective date of such modification equals the outstanding principal balance immediately prior to such modification and the weighted average of the interest rates for all components immediately after the effective date of such modification equals the interest rate of the original Note immediately prior to such modification. At Lender’s election, each Note comprising the Loans may be subject to one or more Securitizations. Subject to the expense limitation in Section 1l.l(b) hereof, Lender shall have the right to modify any Note and/or Notes and any components in accordance with this Section 11 and, provided that such modification shall comply with the terms of this Section 11, it shall become immediately effective. If requested by Lender, Borrower shall promptly execute one or more amendments to the Loan Documents to evidence any such modification.

ARTICLE XII

MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 12.1. Expenses and Taxes.

          (a) Borrower agrees to pay, whether or not the Closing occurs, a reasonable documentation preparation fee, together with actual legal, audit and appraisal fees and all other out-of-pocket charges and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the negotiation, preparation, legal review and execution of each of the Loan Documents, including but not limited to UCC and judgment lien searches, title, litigation, tax and bankruptcy searches, title insurance policies, environmental insurance policies and UCC filings and fees for post-Closing UCC, title and other lien searches. In addition, subject to the limits set forth in Section 5.25 hereof, Borrower shall pay all such fees and expenses associated with any amendments, modifications and terminations to the Loan Documents following Closing. If Lender uses in-house counsel for any of these purposes, Borrower further agrees that its Obligations under the Loan Documents include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the fees that would otherwise be charged by outside legal counsel selected by Lender for the work performed.

          (b) Borrower also agrees to pay all out-of-pocket charges and expenses incurred by Lender (including the court costs and fees and expenses of Lender’s counsel, advisers and consultants) in connection with (1) the administration, enforcement, protection or preservation of any right or claim of Lender (including any

foreclosure sale, deed in lieu transaction or costs incurred in connection with any litigation or bankruptcy or administrative hearing and any appeals therefrom and any post-judgment enforcement action including, without limitation, supplementary proceedings in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement), (2) the syndication of any Credit Facility (subject to the limits set forth in Section 5.25 hereof), (3) recording, filing and registration fees and charges, mortgage or documentary taxes, UCC searches, title and survey charges, (4) all fees and disbursements of Lender’s consultants as provided herein, (5) the termination of this Agreement, (6) the creation, preservation, perfection, maintenance, amendment and termination of any Liens of Lender on the Collateral, (7) the determination of whether or not Borrower has performed the obligations undertaken by Borrower hereunder or has satisfied any conditions precedent to the obligations of Lender hereunder and (8) the collection of any amounts due under the Loan Documents. If Lender uses in-house counsel for any of these purposes (i.e., for any task in connection with the enforcement, protection or preservation of any right or claim of Lender and the collection of any amounts due under its Loan Documents), Borrower further agrees that its Obligations under the Loan Documents include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the fees that would otherwise be charged by outside legal counsel selected by Lender for the work performed.

          (c) Borrower shall pay all taxes (other than taxes based upon or measured by Lender’s income or revenues or any personal property tax), if any, in connection with the issuance of the Notes and the recording of any Loan Documents. The obligations of Borrower under this clause (c) shall survive the payment of Borrower’s indebtedness under this Agreement and the termination of this Agreement.

     Section 12.2. Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with regard to their subject matter and supersede all prior written or oral agreements, understandings, representations and warranties made with respect thereto. No amendment, supplement or modification of this Agreement nor any waiver of any provision thereof shall be made except in writing executed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

     Section 12.3. No Waiver; Cumulative Rights. No waiver by any party to this Agreement of any one or more defaults by the other party in the performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver of any future default or defaults, whether of a like or different nature. No failure or delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Agreement, nor acceptance of partial performance or partial payment, shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or remedy nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or remedy or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies that may be available to any party to this Agreement at law, in equity or otherwise.

     Section 12.4. Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and personally delivered, mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested and postage prepaid), sent by telecopier (with a confirming copy sent by regular mail), or sent by prepaid overnight courier service, and addressed to the relevant party at its address set forth below, or at such other address as such party may, by written notice, designate as its address for purposes of notice under this Agreement:

     Section 12.5. Severability. If any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement, or the application of such term, covenant or condition to any party or circumstance shall be found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be, to any extent, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such term, covenant, or condition to parties or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term, covenant or condition shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. Upon determination that any such term is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, Lender may, but is not obligated to, advance funds to Borrower under this Agreement until the parties to this Agreement amend this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a valid and enforceable manner.

     Section 12.6. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns and shall bind all Persons who become bound as a debtor to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender, which may be withheld in Lender’s discretion. Lender may, from time to time, without the consent of Borrower, sell, transfer, pledge, assign and convey the Credit Facilities and the Loan Documents (or any interest therein) and may grant participations in the Credit Facilities (it being acknowledged that any successor in interest to all or any interest in the Credit Facilities and the Loan Documents shall have all the rights of Lender hereunder). Borrower agrees to cooperate with Lender’s efforts to do any of the foregoing.

     Section 12.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute but one instrument.

     Section 12.8. Interpretation. No provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be interpreted or construed against any party because that party or its legal representative drafted that provision. The titles of the paragraphs of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in

construing this Agreement. Any pronoun used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include singular and plural and masculine, feminine and neuter gender as the case may be. The words “herein,” “hereof,” and “hereunder” shall be deemed to refer to this entire Agreement, except as the context otherwise requires.

     Section 12.9. Survival of Terms. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, and in any certificates and other instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by Lender and shall survive the making by Lender of the Credit Facilities contemplated by this Agreement and the execution and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect until all liabilities and obligations of Borrower to Lender are satisfied in full. All indemnity obligations of Borrower under any of the Loan Documents shall survive the termination of such Loan Document. Borrower’s Obligations under this Agreement shall continue to be effective, and Borrower’s Obligations shall be reinstated, if at any time payment of all or any part of the of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned or restored by the Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower, a Guarantor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

     Section 12.10. Release of Lender. For and in consideration of the Loan and each advance or other financial accommodation hereunder, each Borrower, voluntarily, knowingly, unconditionally, and irrevocably, with specific and express intent, for and on behalf of itself and its agents, attorneys, heirs, successors, and assigns (collectively the “Releasing Parties”) does hereby fully and completely release, acquit and forever discharge Lender, and its successors, assigns, heirs, affiliates, subsidiaries, parent companies, principals, directors, officers, employees, shareholders and agents (hereinafter called the “Lender Parties”), and any other person, firm, business, corporation, insurer, or association which may be responsible or liable for the acts or omissions of the Lender Parties, or who may be liable for the injury or damage resulting therefrom (collectively the “Released Parties”), of and from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, debts, disputes, damages, claims, obligations, liabilities, costs, expenses and demands of any kind whatsoever, at law or in equity, whether matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, vested or contingent, choate or inchoate, known or unknown that the Releasing Parties (or any of them) have or may have, against the Released Parties or any of them (whether directly or indirectly), other than any claim as to which a final determination is made in a judicial proceeding (in which the Lender or any of the Released Parties have had an opportunity to be heard) which determination includes a specific finding that one of the Released Parties acted in a grossly negligent manner or in actual bad faith. Each Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing release is a material inducement to Lender’s decision to extend to Borrower the financial accommodations hereunder and has been relied upon by Lender in agreeing to make the Loan and in making each advance of Loan proceeds hereunder.

     Section 12.11. Time. Whenever Borrower is required to make any payment or perform any act on a Saturday, Sunday, or a legal holiday under the laws of the State of Illinois (or other jurisdiction where Borrower is required to make the payment or perform the act), the payment may be made or the act performed on the next Business Day. Time is of the essence in Borrower’s performance under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents.

     Section 12.12. Commissions. Except as disclosed in Schedule 12.12 of the Information Certificate, the transaction contemplated by this Agreement was brought about by Lender and Borrower acting as principals and without any brokers, agents, or finders being the effective procuring cause. Borrower represents that it has not committed Lender to the payment of any brokerage fee, commission, or charge in connection with this transaction. If any such claim is made on Lender by any broker, finder, or agent or other person, Borrower will indemnify, defend, and hold Lender harmless from and against the claim and will defend any action to recover on that claim, at Borrower’s cost and expense, including Lender’s counsel fees. Borrower further agrees that until any such claim or demand is adjudicated in Lender’s favor, the amount demanded will be deemed a liability of Borrower under this Agreement, secured by the Collateral.

     Section 12.13. Third Parties. No rights are intended to be created under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document for the benefit of any third party donee, creditor, or incidental beneficiary of Borrower. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as a delegation to Lender of Borrower’s duty of performance, including without limitation Borrower’s duties under any account or contract in which Lender has a security interest. Lender shall not be liable to any contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, architects engineers, tenants or other party for labor or services performed or materials supplied in connection with any Collateral. Lender shall not be liable for any debts or claims accruing in favor of any such parties against Borrower or others or against the

Collateral. Lender neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower to select, review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform Borrower of any matter in connection with the Collateral. Borrower shall rely entirely upon its own judgment with respect to such matters, and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment or supply of information to Borrower by Lender in connection with such matters is for the protection of Lender only, and neither Borrower nor any third party is entitled to rely thereon.

     Section 12.14. Discharge of Borrower’s Obligations. Lender, in its discretion, shall have the right at any time, and from time to time, with 3 days prior notice to Borrower if Borrower fails to do so, to: (a) obtain insurance covering any of the Collateral as required under this Agreement; (b) pay for the performance of any of Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement; (c) discharge taxes, Liens, security interests, or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on any of the Collateral in violation of this Agreement unless Borrower is in good faith with due diligence by appropriate proceedings contesting those items; and (d) pay for the maintenance and preservation of any of the Collateral. Expenses and advances shall be added to the outstanding balance of the Credit Facilities (to such Credit Facility as Lender shall elect) until reimbursed to Lender and shall be secured by the Collateral and payable immediately upon demand of Lender. Any such payments and advances by Lender shall not be construed as a waiver by Lender of an Event of Default.

     Section 12.15. Information to Participants. Lender shall have the right (but shall be under no obligation) to make available to any party for the purpose of granting participations in or selling, transferring, assigning or conveying all or any part of the Credit Facilities (including any governmental agency or authority and any prospective bidder at any foreclosure sale of any Collateral) any and all information that Lender may have with respect to the Collateral and Borrower, whether provided by Borrower, Guarantor or any third party or obtained as a result of any environmental assessments, provided that Lender instructs any such party to keep such information confidential. Borrower and Guarantor agree that Lender shall have no liability whatsoever as a result of delivering any such information to any third party, and Borrower and Guarantor, on behalf of themselves and their successors and assigns, hereby release and discharge Lender from any and all liability, claims, damages, or causes of action, arising out of, connected with or incidental to the delivery of any such information to any third party.

     Section 12.16. Indemnity. Borrower hereby indemnifies and agrees to defend (with counsel acceptable to Lender) and hold harmless Lender, its partners, officers, agents and employees (collectively, “Indemnitee”) from and against any liability, loss, cost, expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses for both in-house and outside counsel), claim, damage, suit, action or proceeding ever suffered or incurred by Lender or in which Lender may ever be or become involved (whether as a party, witness or otherwise) (a) arising from Borrower’s failure to observe, perform or discharge any of its covenants, obligations, agreements or duties under this Agreement, (b) arising from the breach of any of the representations or warranties contained in Article IV of this Agreement, (c) by reason of any third party claim or proceeding arising out of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (d) relating to claims of any Person with respect to the Collateral, except to the extent any of the foregoing are the result of Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, the obligation of Borrower under this Section 12.16 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. NO INDEMNITEE PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO THE BORROWER OR TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

     Section 12.17. Reserved

     Section 12.18. Lender Approvals. Unless expressly provided herein to the contrary, any approval, consent, decision, waiver or satisfaction of Lender with respect to any matter that is the subject of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (a “Credit Decision”) may be granted, withheld, determined or exercised by Lender in its “commercial credit judgment”. “Commercial credit judgment” means in its sole and absolute credit judgment

exercised in a manner consistent with Lender’s commercial business practices, as they may be in effect or exercised generally by Lender from time to time for borrowers of this type.

     Section 12.19. Further Assurances. Borrower hereby agrees that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of Borrower, Borrower will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or that Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby, or to enable Lender or any of its agents to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies under this Agreement with respect to any portion of such collateral.

     Section 12.20. Definitions Include Amendments. Definitions contained in this Agreement which identify documents, including, but not limited to, the Loan Documents, shall be deemed to include all amendments and supplements to such documents from the date hereof, and all future amendments, modifications, and supplements thereto entered into from time to time to satisfy the requirements of this Agreement or otherwise with the consent of Lender. Reference to this Agreement contained in any of the foregoing documents shall be deemed to include all amendments and supplements to this Agreement.

     Section 12.21. Claims Against Lender. Lender shall not be in default under this Agreement, or under any other Loan Documents, unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of Borrower shall have been given to Lender within three (3) months after Borrower first had knowledge of the occurrence of the event which Borrower alleges gave rise to such claim and Lender does not remedy or cure the default, if any there be, promptly thereafter. Borrower waives any claim, set-off or defense against Lender arising by reason of any alleged default by Lender as to which Borrower does not give such notice timely as aforesaid. Borrower acknowledges that such waiver is or may be essential to Lender’s ability to enforce its remedies without delay and that such waiver therefore constitutes a substantial part of the bargain between Lender and Borrower with regard to the Loan. No Guarantor or tenant is intended to have any rights as a third-party beneficiary of the provisions of this Section.

     Section 12.22. Set-Offs. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Lender from time to time to charge Borrower’s accounts and deposits with Lender (or its Affiliates), and to pay over to Lender an amount equal to any amounts from time to time due and payable to Lender hereunder, under the Note or under any other Loan Document. Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in and to all such accounts and deposits maintained by Borrower with Lender (or its Affiliates).

     Section 12.23. Relationship. The relationship between Lender and Borrower shall be that of creditor-debtor only. No term in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents and no course of dealing between the parties shall be deemed to create any relationship of agency, partnership or joint venture or any fiduciary duty by Lender to Borrower or any other party.

     Section 12.24. Agents. In exercising any rights under the Loan Documents or taking any actions provided for therein, Lender may act through its employees, agents or independent contractors as authorized by Lender.

     Section 12.25 Joint and Several Liability; Binding Obligations.

     (a) Borrower is defined collectively to include all Persons constituting the Borrower; provided, however, that any references herein to “any Borrower”, “each Borrower” or similar references, shall be construed as a reference to each individual Person comprising the Borrower. Each Person comprising Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Borrowers under the Affiliated Loan Documents (the “Affiliated Borrowers”), regardless of which of the Borrowers or the Affiliated Borrowers actually receives the proceeds of the Loans or the benefit of any other extensions of credit hereunder or the Loans or the benefit of any other extension of credit under the Affiliated Loan Documents, or the manner in which the Borrowers, the Affiliated Borrowers, the Lender or the Lenders account therefor in their respective books and records. In addition, each entity comprising Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that all of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, conditions, agreements and other terms contained in this Agreement shall be applicable to and shall be binding upon and measured and enforceable individually against each Person comprising Borrower as well as all such Persons when taken together. By way of illustration, but without

limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms of Article X of this Agreement are to be applied to each individual Person comprising the Borrower (as well as to all such Persons taken as a whole), such that the occurrence of any of the events described in Article X of this Agreement as to any Person comprising the Borrower shall constitute an Event of Default even if such event has not occurred as to any other Persons comprising the Borrower or as to all such Persons taken as a whole (except as otherwise expressly provided therein).

     (b) Each Borrower acknowledges that it will enjoy significant benefits from the business conducted by the other Borrowers and the Affiliated Borrowers because of, inter alia, their combined ability to bargain with other Persons including without limitation their ability to receive the Credit Facilities under the Affiliated Loan Documents on favorable terms granted by this Agreement and other Loan Documents and the Affiliated Loan Documents which would not have been available to an individual Borrower acting alone. Each Borrower has determined that it is in its best interest to procure the Credit Facilities hereunder, with the credit support of the other Borrowers as contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the credit support of the Affiliated Borrowers as contemplated by the Affiliated Loan Documents.

     (c) The Lender has advised the Borrowers that it is unwilling to enter into this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Affiliated Loan Documents and make available the Credit Facility extended hereby or thereby to any Borrower or Affiliated Borrower unless each Borrower agrees, among other things, to be jointly and severally liable for the due and proper payment of the Obligations of each other Borrower under this Agreement and other Loan Documents and of each Affiliated Borrower under the Affiliated Loan Documents. Each Borrower has determined that it is in its best interest and in pursuit of its purposes that it so induce the Lender to extend credit pursuant to this Agreement and the other documents executed in connection herewith (i) because of the desirability to each Borrower of the Credit Facility and to each Affiliated Borrower of the Credit Facilities under the Affiliated Loan Documents and the interest rates and the modes of borrowing available hereunder and thereunder, (ii) because each Borrower may engage in transactions jointly with other Borrowers or Affiliated Borrowers and (iii) because each Borrower may require, from time to time, access to funds under this Agreement for the purposes herein set forth. Each Borrower, individually, expressly understands, agrees and acknowledges, that the Credit Facilities would not be made available on the terms herein in the absence of the collective credit of all of the Persons constituting the Borrower and the Affiliated Borrowers, the joint and several liability of all such Persons, and the cross-collateralization of the collateral of all such Persons hereunder and under the Affiliated Loan Documents. Accordingly, each Borrower, individually acknowledges that the benefit to each of the Persons comprising the Borrower as a whole constitutes reasonably equivalent value, regardless of the amount of the Credit Facilities actually borrowed by, advanced to, or the amount of collateral provided by, any individual Borrower.

     (d) Each Borrower has determined that it has and, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Affiliated Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the inter-Borrower arrangement set forth in this Section) will have, assets having a fair saleable value in excess of the amount required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts as they fall due for payment and that the sum of its debts is not and will not then be greater than all of its property at a fair valuation, that such Borrower has, and will have, access to adequate capital for the conduct of its business and the ability to pay its debts from time to time incurred in connection therewith as such debts mature and that the value of the benefits to be derived by such Borrower from the access to funds under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the inter-Borrower arrangement set forth in this Section) is reasonably equivalent to the obligations undertaken pursuant hereto.

     (e) The Borrower Agent (on behalf of each Borrower) shall maintain records specifying (a) all Obligations incurred by each Borrower, (b) the date of such incurrence, (c) the date and amount of any payments made in respect of such Obligations and (d) all inter-Borrower obligations pursuant to this Section. The Borrower Agent shall make copies of such records available to the Lender, upon request.

     (f) To the extent that applicable law otherwise would render the full amount of the joint and several obligations of any Borrower hereunder, under the other Loan Documents and under the Affiliated Loan Documents invalid or unenforceable, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and Affiliated Loan Documents shall be limited to the maximum amount which does not result in such invalidity or unenforceability, provided, however, that each Borrower’s obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and Affiliated Loan Documents shall be presumptively valid and enforceable to their fullest extent in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, as if this Section were not a part of this Agreement.

     (g) To the extent that any Borrower shall make a payment under this Section of all or any of the Obligations (other than Loans made to that Borrower for which it is primarily liable) (a “Joint Liability Payment”) which, taking into account all other Joint Liability Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount which such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Joint Liability Payments in the same proportion that such Borrower’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Joint Liability Payments) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Borrowers as determined immediately prior to the making of such Joint Liability Payments, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations and termination of the Commitments, such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Joint Liability Payments. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim which could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

     (h) Lender is hereby authorized, without notice or demand and without affecting the liability of any Borrower hereunder, to, at any time and from time to time, (i) renew, extend or otherwise increase the time for payment of the Obligations; (ii) with the written agreement of any Borrower accelerate or otherwise change the terms relating to the Obligations or otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any promissory note or other agreement, document or instrument now or hereafter executed by any Borrower and delivered to Lender; (iii) accept partial payments of the Obligations; (iv) take and hold security or collateral for the payment of the Obligations or for the payment of any guaranties of the Obligations and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security or collateral; (v) apply such security or collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof Lender, in its sole discretion, may determine; and (vi) settle, release, compromise, collect or otherwise liquidate the Obligations and any security or collateral therefor in any manner, without affecting or impairing the obligations of any Borrower. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or Affiliated Loan Documents, Lender shall have the exclusive right to determine the time and manner of application of any payments or credits, whether received from any Borrower or any other source, and such determination shall be binding on all Borrowers. Ail such payments and credits may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to any of the Obligations Lender shall determine in its sole discretion without affecting the validity or enforceability of the Obligations of any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower.

     (i) Each Borrower hereby agrees that, except as hereinafter provided, its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of (i) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from any obligor or other action to enforce the same; (ii) the waiver or consent by Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations, or any part thereof, or any other agreement heretofore, now or hereafter executed by a Borrower or Affiliated Borrower and delivered to Lender; (iii) failure by Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations; (iv) the institution of any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code, or any similar proceeding, by or against a Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or Lender’s election in any such proceeding of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (v) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by a Borrower or Affiliated Borrower as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (vi) the disallowance, under Section 502 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of Lender’s claim(s) for repayment of any of the Obligations; or (vii) any other circumstance other than payment in full of the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or surety.

     (j) Until all Obligations have been paid and satisfied in full, no payment made by or for the account of a Borrower or Affiliated Borrower including, without limitation, (i) a payment made by such Borrower or Affiliated Borrower on behalf of the liabilities of any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or (ii) a payment made by any other person under any guaranty, shall entitle such Borrower or Affiliated Borrower, by subrogation or otherwise, to any payment from any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or from or out of any other Borrower’s or Affiliated Borrower’s property and such Borrower or Affiliated Borrower shall not exercise any right or remedy against any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or any property of any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower by reason of any performance of such Borrower or Affiliated Borrower of its joint and several obligations hereunder.

     (k) Any notice given by one Borrower hereunder shall constitute and be deemed to be notice given by all Borrowers and Affiliated Borrowers, jointly and severally. Notice given by Lender or any Lender to any one Borrower or Affiliated Borrower hereunder or pursuant to any Loan Documents or Affiliated Loan Documents in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof shall constitute notice to each and every Borrower and Affiliated Borrower. The knowledge of one Borrower or Affiliated Borrower shall be imputed to all Borrowers and Affiliated Borrowers and any consent by one Borrower or Affiliated Borrower shall constitute the consent of and shall bind all Borrowers and Affiliated Borrower.

     (1) This Section is intended only to define the relative rights of Borrower and Affiliated Borrowers and nothing set forth in this Section is intended to or shall impair the obligations of Borrower, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents. Nothing contained in this Section shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay the Loans made directly or indirectly to that Borrower and accrued interest, Fees and expenses with respect thereto for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable.

     (m) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of each Borrower to which such contribution and indemnification is owing. The rights of any indemnifying Borrower against the other Borrowers or Affiliated Borrowers under this Section shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Obligations and the termination of the Credit Facilities hereunder and under the Affiliated Loan Documents.

     Section 12.26 Guarantor Provisions.

     (a) Consents. Each Borrower, as joint and several primary obligor of the Obligations directly incurred by any other Borrower or by any Affiliated Borrower, authorizes Lender, without giving notice to such Borrower or to any other Borrower or any Affiliated Borrower (to the extent permitted hereunder or under any Affiliated Loan Document) or obtaining such Borrower’s consent or any other Borrower’s or Affiliated Borrower’s consent (to the extent permitted hereunder or under any Affiliated Loan Document) and without affecting the liability of such Borrower for the Obligations directly incurred by the other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower, from time to time to:

	i.		compromise, settle, renew, extend the time for payment, change the manner or terms of payment, discharge the performance of, decline to enforce, or release all or any of the Obligations; grant other indulgences to any Borrower in respect thereof; or modify in any manner any documents relating to the Obligations;
	ii.		declare all Obligations due and payable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default;
	iii.		take and hold security for the performance of the Obligations of any Borrower and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security;
	iv.		apply and reapply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender, in its sole discretion, may determine;
	v.		release, surrender or exchange any deposits or other property securing the Obligations or on which Lender at any time may have a Lien; release, substitute or add any one or more endorsers or guarantors of the Obligations of any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or such Borrower; or compromise, settle, renew, extend the time for payment, discharge the performance of, decline to enforce, or release all or any obligations of any such endorser or guarantor or other Person who is now or may hereafter be liable on any Obligations or release, surrender or exchange any deposits or other property of any such Person;
	vi.		apply Payments received by Lender from any Borrower or any Affiliated Borrower to any Obligations, in such order as Lender shall determine, in its sole discretion; and

vii.

assign this Agreement in whole or in part.

     (b) Waivers. Each Borrower, as a primary, joint and several obligor with respect to the Obligations directly incurred by any other Borrower or any Affiliated Borrower, waives:

	i.		any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other Borrower or any Affiliated Borrower, or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of any other Borrower or any Affiliated Borrower from any cause (other than full payment of all Obligations), including, but not limited to, failure of consideration, breach of warranty, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction, and usury;
	ii.		any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other guarantor or other Person;
	iii.		any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or any principal of any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or any defect in the formation of any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or any principal of any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower;
	iv.		any defense based upon the application by any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans or the loans under the Affiliated Loan Documents for purposes other than the purposes represented by such other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower to Lender or intended or understood by Lender or such Borrower;
	v.		any defense based on such Borrower’s rights, under statute or otherwise, to require Lender to sue any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or otherwise to exhaust its rights and remedies against any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or any other Person or against any collateral before seeking to enforce its right to require such Borrower to satisfy the Obligations of any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower;
	vi.		any defense based on Lender’s failure at any time to require strict performance by any Borrower of any provision of the Loan Documents or by any Affilated Borrower of any provisions of the Affilated Loan Documents. Such Borrower agrees that no such failure shall waive, alter or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance therewith. Nothing contained herein shall prevent Lender from foreclosing on any Lien, or exercising any rights available to Lender thereunder, and the exercise of any such rights shall not constitute a legal or equitable discharge of such Borrower;
	vii.		any defense arising from any act or omission of Lender which changes the scope of such Borrower’s risks hereunder;
	viii.		any defense based upon Lender’s election of any remedy against such Borrower or any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower or any of them; any defense based on the order in which Lender enforces its remedies;
	ix.		any defense based on (A) Lender’s surrender, release, exchange, substitution, dealing with or taking any additional collateral, (B) Lender’s abstaining from taking advantage of or realizing upon any Lien or other guaranty, and (C) any impairment of collateral securing the Obligations, including, but not limited to, Lender’s failure to perfect or maintain a Lien in such collateral;

	xi.		any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects more burdensome than that of a principal;

	xii.		any defense based upon Lender’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Bankruptcy Code § 1111(b)(2) or any successor statute;
	xiii.		any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Bankruptcy Code §364;
	xiv.		any defense based on Lender’s failure to be diligent or to satisfy any other standard imposed on a secured party, in exercising rights with respect to collateral securing the Obligations;
	xv.		except as otherwise expressly set forth herein: notice of acceptance hereof; notice of the existence, creation or acquisition of any Obligation; notice of any Event of Default; notice of the amount of the Obligations outstanding from time to time; notice of any other fact which might increase such Borrower’s risk; diligence; presentment; demand of payment; protest; filing of claims with a court in the event of any other Borrower’s receivership or bankruptcy and all other notices and demands to which such Borrower might otherwise be entitled (and agrees the same shall not have to be made on the other Borrower as a condition precedent to such Borrower’s obligations hereunder);
	xvi.		any defense based on errors and omissions by Lender in connection with its administration of the Loans or the loans made under the Affiliated Loan Documents;
	xvii.		any defense based on application of fraudulent conveyance or transfer law or shareholder distribution law to any of the Obligations or the security therefor;
	xviii.		any defense based on Lender’s failure to seek relief from stay or adequate protection in any other Borrower’s or Affiliated Borrower’s bankruptcy proceeding or any other act or omission by Lender which impairs such Borrower’s prospective subrogation rights;
	xix.		any defense based on legal prohibition of Lender’s acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations during the occurrence of an Event of Default or any other legal prohibition on enforcement of any other right or remedy of Lender with respect to the Obligations and the security therefor;
	xx.		any defense available to a surety under applicable law; and
	xxi.		the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of such Borrower hereunder or the enforcement hereof.

Each Borrower further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall not be impaired in any manner whatsoever by any bankruptcy, extensions, moratoria or other relief granted to any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower pursuant to any statute presently in force or hereafter enacted.

     (c) Additional Waivers. Each Borrower authorizes Lender to exercise, in its sole discretion, any right, remedy or combination thereof which may then be available to Lender, since it is such Borrower’s intent that the Obligations be absolute, independent and unconditional obligations of such Borrower under all circumstances. Notwithstanding any foreclosure of any Lien with respect to any or all of any property securing the Obligations, whether by the exercise of the power of sale contained therein, by an action for judicial foreclosure or by an acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, each Borrower shall remain bound under such Borrower’s guaranty of the Obligations directly incurred by any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower.

     (d) Primary Obligations. This Agreement is a primary and original obligation of each of the Borrowers and each of the Borrowers shall be liable for all existing and future Obligations of any other Borrower or Affiliated Borrower as fully as if such Obligations were directly incurred by such Borrower.

Section 12.27 Reserved.

     Section 12.28. Choice of Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT (EACH, A “PROCEEDING”), BORROWER IRREVOCABLY (A) SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS HAVING JURISDICTION IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO, COUNTY OF COOK AND STATE OF ILLINOIS, AND (B) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE AT ANY TIME TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT, WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY PROCEEDING HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND FURTHER WAIVES THE RIGHT TO OBJECT, WITH RESPECT TO SUCH PROCEEDING, THAT SUCH COURT DOES NOT HAVE JURISDICTION OVER SUCH PARTY. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL PRECLUDE LENDER FROM BRINGING A PROCEEDING IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION NOR WILL THE BRINGING OF A PROCEEDING IN ANY ONE OR MORE JURISDICTIONS PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF A PROCEEDING IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS AND FURTHER AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT, IN ADDITION TO ANY METHODS OF SERVICE OF PROCESS PROVIDED FOR UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ALL SERVICE OR PROCESS IN ANY PROCEEDING IN ANY ILLINOIS STATE OR UNITED STATES COURT SITTING IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO AND COUNTY OF COOK MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, DIRECTED TO BORROWER AT THE ADDRESS INDICATED HEREIN, AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE COMPLETE UPON RECEIPT; EXCEPT THAT IF BORROWER SHALL REFUSE TO ACCEPT DELIVERY, SERVICE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETE FIVE (5) DAYS AFTER THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN SO MAILED.

THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS SEPARATELY GIVEN, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, BY BORROWER, AND THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. LENDER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED AND REQUESTED TO SUBMIT THIS AGREEMENT TO ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION OVER THE SUBJECT MATTER AND THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, SO AS TO SERVE AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF BORROWER’S WAIVER OF THE RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL. FURTHER, BORROWER HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF LENDER (INCLUDING LENDER’S COUNSEL) HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, TO BORROWER THAT LENDER WILL NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL PROVISION.

     Section 12.31. Reserved

     Section 12.32. Cross Default and Cross Collateralization. As stated under Section 10.1 hereof, an Event of Default under any of the Affiliated Loan Documents shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement.
