The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender) in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages a facility unused fee calculated at the rate per annum as set forth below on the actual daily amount by which the Total Commitment exceeds the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Loans and the face amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding during each calendar quarter or portion thereof commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The facility unused fee shall be calculated for each quarter based on the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (a) the actual daily amount of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans and the face amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding during such quarter to (b) the Total Commitment, and if such ratio is equal to or less than fifty percent (50%), the facility unused fee shall be payable

at the rate of 0.30% per annum, and if such ratio is greater than fifty percent (50%), the facility unused fee shall be payable at the rate of 0.20% per annum. The facility unused fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the fifth (5^th) day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof, and on any earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be reduced or shall terminate as provided in §2.4, with a final payment on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

§2.4 Reduction and Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent to reduce by $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (provided that in no event shall the Total Commitment be reduced in such manner to an amount less than $25,000,000) or to terminate entirely the Revolving Credit Commitments, whereupon the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of the amount specified in such notice or, as the case may be, terminated, any such termination or reduction to be without penalty except as otherwise set forth in §4.8; provided, however, that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto, the sum of Outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, the Outstanding Swing Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders as so terminated or reduced. Promptly after receiving any notice from the Borrower delivered pursuant to this §2.4, the Agent will notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of the substance thereof. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall also result in a proportionate reduction (rounded to the next lowest integral multiple of $100,000) in the maximum amount of Swing Loans and Letters of Credit. Upon the effective date of any such reduction or termination, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders the full amount of any unused facility unused fee under §2.3 then accrued on the amount of the reduction. No reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments may be reinstated.

§2.5 Swing Loan Commitment.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Swing Loan Lender agrees to lend to the Borrower (the “Swing Loans”), and the Borrower may borrow (and repay and reborrow) from time to time between the Effective Date and the date which is ten (10) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrower to the Swing Loan Lender given in accordance with this §2.5, such sums as are requested by the Borrower for the purposes set forth in §2.9 in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not exceeding the Swing Loan Commitment; provided that in all events (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (ii) if a Revolving Credit Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender, the requested amount of the Swing Line Advance shall be reduced by the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s participation interest in the Swing Line Advance; (iii) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) plus Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not at any time exceed the Total Commitment; and (iv) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested), plus Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (A) the Total Commitment or (B) the Borrowing Base Availability. Swing Loans shall constitute

“Revolving Credit Loans” for all purposes hereunder. The funding of a Swing Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that all of the conditions set forth in §10 and §11 have been satisfied on the date of such funding (or if such condition is required to have been satisfied only as of the Effective Date, that such condition was satisfied as of the Effective Date). The Swing Loan Lender may assume that the conditions in §10 and §11 have been satisfied unless Swing Loan Lender has received written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. Each Swing Loan shall be due and payable upon the earlier of demand by the Agent or within three (3) Business Days of the date such Swing Loan was provided and Borrower hereby agrees to the extent not repaid as contemplated by §2.5(d) below) to repay each Swing Loan on or before the earlier of the date that is three (3) Business Days from the date such Swing Loan was provided or demand for such repayment by the Agent.

(b) The Swing Loans shall be evidenced by a separate promissory note of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (the “Swing Note”), dated the date of this Agreement and completed with appropriate insertions. The Swing Loan Note shall be payable to the order of the Swing Loan Lender in the principal face amount equal to the Swing Loan Commitment and shall be payable as set forth below.

(c) Borrower shall request a Swing Loan by delivering to the Swing Loan Lender a Loan Request executed by an Authorized Officer no later than 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the requested Drawdown Date specifying the amount of the requested Swing Loan (which shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000) and providing the wire instructions for the delivery of the Swing Loan proceeds. Each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept such Swing Loan on the Drawdown Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Swing Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans. The proceeds of the Swing Loan will be disbursed by wire by the Swing Loan Lender to the Borrower no later than 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the requested Drawdown Date.

(d) The Swing Loan Lender shall, within two (2) Business Days after the Drawdown Date with respect to such Swing Loan, request each Revolving Credit Lender, including the Swing Loan Lender, to make a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.1 in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of the Swing Loan outstanding on the date such notice is given. In the event that the Borrower does not notify the Agent in writing otherwise on or before noon (Eastern time) of the Drawdown Date with respect to such Swing Loan, Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders that such Revolving Credit Loan shall be a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one (1) month, provided that the making of such Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan will not be in contravention of any other provision of this Agreement, or if the making of a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan would be in contravention of this Agreement, then such notice shall indicate that such loan shall be a Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Swing Loan Lender to so act on its behalf, and agrees that any amount advanced to the Agent for the benefit of the Swing Loan Lender pursuant to this §2.5(d) shall be considered a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.1. Unless any of the events described in paragraph (h), (i) or (j) of §12.1 shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of §2.5(e) shall apply), each Revolving Credit Lender shall

make the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan available to the Swing Loan Lender for the account of the Swing Loan Lender at the Agent’s Head Office prior to 12:00 noon (Eastern time) in funds immediately available no later than the third (3rd) Business Day after the date such notice is given just as if the Revolving Credit Lenders were funding directly to the Borrower, so that thereafter such Obligations shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loan shall be immediately applied to repay the Swing Loans.

(e) If for any reason a Swing Loan cannot be refinanced by a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.5(d) (including due to a Defaulting Lender’s failure to fund), each Revolving Credit Lender will, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.5(d) was to have been made, purchase an undivided participation interest in the Swing Loan in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Swing Loan (or portion thereof). Each Revolving Credit Lender will immediately transfer to the Swing Loan Lender in immediately available funds the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swing Loan Lender will deliver to such Revolving Credit Lender a Swing Loan participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.

(f) Whenever at any time after the Swing Loan Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation interest in a Swing Loan, or the Swing Loan Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swing Loan Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its participation interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted in the case of interest payments to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Loan Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Swing Loan Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swing Loan Lender to it.

(g) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to fund a Revolving Credit Loan as provided in §2.5(d) or to purchase participation interests pursuant to §2.5(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swing Loan Lender, the Borrower or anyone else for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by the Borrower or any Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. Any portions of a Swing Loan not so purchased or converted may be treated by the Agent and Swing Loan Lender as against such Revolving Credit Lender as a Revolving Credit Loan which was not funded by the non-purchasing Revolving Credit Lender as contemplated by §2.8 and §12.5, and shall have such rights and remedies against such Revolving Credit Lender as are set forth in §§2.8, 12.5 and 14.5. Each Swing Loan, once so sold or converted, shall cease to be a Swing Loan for the purposes of this Agreement, but shall be a Revolving Credit Loan made by each Revolving Credit Lender under its Revolving Credit Commitment.

§2.6 Interest on Loans.

(a) Each Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the date on which such Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan is repaid or converted to a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan at the rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans.

(b) Each Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of each Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the sum of LIBOR determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loans.

(d) Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans may be converted to Loans of the other Type as provided in §4.1.

(e) The parties understand that the applicable interest rate for the Loans and certain fees set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to the Lenders by Borrower (the “Borrower Information”). If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including without limitation because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by the Borrower) at the time it was delivered to the Agent, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period were different than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information. The Agent shall promptly notify Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to the Agent, for the account of each Lender, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such written notice. Borrower shall receive a credit or refund of any overpayment promptly after such determination. Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of 180 days, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of the Agent’s, the Issuing Lender’s, or any Lender’s other rights under this Agreement.

§2.7 Requests for Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrower shall give to the Agent written notice executed by an Authorized Officer in the form of Exhibit D hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing in the form of Exhibit D hereto) of each Revolving Credit Loan requested hereunder (a “Loan Request”) by 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans and two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loans, together with an executed Borrowing Base Availability Certificate in the form of Exhibit F. Each such notice shall specify with respect to the requested Revolving Credit Loan the proposed principal amount of such Revolving Credit Loan, the Type of Revolving Credit Loan, the initial Interest Period (if applicable) for such Revolving Credit Loan and the Drawdown Date. Promptly upon

receipt of any such notice, the Agent shall notify each of the Revolving Credit Lenders thereof. Each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Revolving Credit Loan requested from the Revolving Credit Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. Nothing herein shall prevent the Borrower from seeking recourse against any Revolving Credit Lender that fails to advance its proportionate share of a requested Revolving Credit Loan as required by this Agreement. Each Loan Request shall be (a) for a Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $100,000; or (b) for a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $500,000; provided, however, that there shall be no more than six (6) Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time.

§2.8 Funds for Loans.

(a) Not later than noon (Eastern time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loans, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders will make available to the Agent, at the Agent’s Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of the requested Loans which may be disbursed pursuant to §2.1 or §2.2. Upon receipt from each such Revolving Credit Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by §10 and §11 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein to the extent applicable, the Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Loans made available to the Agent by the Revolving Credit Lenders by crediting such amount to the account of the Borrower maintained at the Agent’s Head Office or wiring such funds in accordance with Borrower’s written instructions. The failure or refusal of any Revolving Credit Lender to make available to the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the requested Loans shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent the amount of such other Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any requested Loans, including any additional Revolving Credit Loans that may be requested subject to the terms and conditions hereof to provide funds to replace those not advanced by the Lender so failing or refusing. In the event of any such failure or refusal, the Lenders not so failing or refusing shall be entitled to a priority secured position as against the Lender or Lenders so failing or refusing to make available to the Borrower the amount of its or their Commitment Percentage for such Loans as provided in §12.5.

(b) Unless the Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Drawdown Date that such Lender will not make available to Agent such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of a proposed Loan, Agent may in its discretion assume that such Lender has made such Loan available to Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Agent may, if it chooses, in reliance upon such assumption make such Loan available to the Borrower, and such Lender shall be liable to the Agent for the amount of such advance. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount upon the Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to the Agent. The Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Lender or the Borrower (without duplication), as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Agent to the Borrower to the date

such corresponding amount is recovered by the Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for such Loan or (ii) from a Lender at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

§2.9 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans and the Letters of Credit solely to (a) pay closing costs in connection with this Agreement; (b) repay then existing loans, (c) fund redevelopment and/or development projects, (d) fund capital and construction expenditures, tenant improvements, leasing commissions and property and equipment acquisitions; and (e) for general working capital purposes (including without limitation to finance direct and indirect acquisitions (including deposits made in connection with acquisitions) and other investments in real estate, interest shortfalls, general operating expenses, including without limitation taxes, insurance and other expenses); notwithstanding the foregoing, the proceeds of the Loans and the Letters of Credit may not be used to refinance any commercial paper issued by the REIT or any of its Subsidiaries.

§2.10 Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, at any time and from time to time from the Effective Date through the day that is thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the Issuing Lender shall issue such Letters of Credit as the Borrower may request upon the delivery of a written request in the form of Exhibit E hereto (a “Letter of Credit Request”) to the Issuing Lender, provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) upon issuance of such Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) but shall be automatically increased on a pro rata basis with increases in the Total Commitment, (iii) in no event shall the sum of (A) the Revolving Credit Loans Outstanding, (B) the Swing Loans Outstanding and (C) the amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities (after giving effect to all Letters of Credit requested) exceed the Total Commitment, (iv) in no event shall the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Loans and Letters of Credit Liabilities (after giving effect to any requested Letters of Credit) exceed the Total Commitment or the Borrowing Base Availability or cause a violation of the covenant set forth in §9.1, (v) the conditions set forth in §10 and §11 shall have been satisfied (or if such condition is required to have been satisfied only as of the Effective Date, that such condition was satisfied as of the Effective Date), (vi) no Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender (provided Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, be entitled to waive this condition), unless the Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of cash collateral, satisfactory to the Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other Letter of Credit Liabilities as to which the Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion, and (vii) in no event shall any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit be available for reinstatement or a subsequent drawing under such Letter of Credit. The Issuing Lender may assume that the conditions in §10 and §11 have been satisfied unless it receives written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. Each Letter of Credit Request shall be executed by an Authorized Officer of Borrower. The Issuing Lender shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Person’s authority to request a Letter of Credit on

behalf of Borrower. The Issuing Lender shall have no duty to verify the authenticity of any signature appearing on a Letter of Credit Request. The Borrower assumes all risks with respect to the use of the Letters of Credit. Unless the Issuing Lender and the Required Lenders otherwise consent, the term of any Letter of Credit shall not exceed a period of time commencing on the issuance of the Letter of Credit and ending one year after the date of issuance thereof, subject to extension pursuant to an “evergreen” clause reasonably acceptable to Agent and Issuing Lender (but in any event the term shall not extend beyond thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date) unless the Borrower has provided to Agent cash collateral reasonably acceptable to the Agent in an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Liability with respect to any Letter of Credit which extends beyond thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date). The amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit shall reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis the amount available to be drawn under the Total Commitment as a Revolving Credit Loan.

(b) Each Letter of Credit Request shall be submitted to the Issuing Lender at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as the Issuing Lender may approve) prior to the date upon which the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued. Each such Letter of Credit Request shall contain (i) a statement as to the purpose for which such Letter of Credit shall be used (which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), and (ii) a certification by an Authorized Officer or the chief financial or chief accounting officer of Borrower that the Borrower is and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after giving effect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall further deliver to the Issuing Lender such additional applications (which application as of the date hereof is in the form of Exhibit I attached hereto) and documents as the Issuing Lender may reasonably require, in conformity with the then standard practices of its letter of credit department in connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit; provided that in the event of any conflict, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

(c) The Issuing Lender shall, subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, issue the Letter of Credit on or before five (5) Business Days following receipt of the documents last due pursuant to §2.10(b). Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its reasonable discretion.

(d) Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have purchased a participation therein from Issuing Lender in an amount equal to its respective Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Letter of Credit. No Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to participate in a Letter of Credit shall be affected by any other Revolving Credit Lender’s failure to perform as required herein with respect to such Letter of Credit or any other Letter of Credit.

(e) Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Lender (i) for its own account, a Letter of Credit fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit, at a rate equal to the greater of (a) a one time fee of 0.125%, computed on the face amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, or (b) $1500.00, and (ii) for the accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders (including the Issuing Lender) in accordance with their respective percentage shares of participation in such Letter of Credit, a Letter of Credit fee calculated at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin then applicable to Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate

Loans on the amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Such fees shall be payable in quarterly installments in arrears with respect to each Letter of Credit on the fifth day of each calendar quarter following the date of issuance and continuing on each quarter or portion thereof thereafter, as applicable, or on any earlier date on which the Commitments shall terminate and on the expiration or return of any Letter of Credit (if such letter of credit is outstanding less than a full quarter, such fee shall be pro rated for the period of time outstanding). In addition, the Borrower shall pay to Issuing Lender for its own account within ten (10) Business Days of demand of Issuing Lender the standard issuance, documentation and service charges applicable to Letters of Credit issued from time to time by Issuing Lender in amount not less than $250.00.

(f) In the event that any amount is drawn under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Lender by having such amount drawn treated as an outstanding Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan under this Agreement (Borrower being deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan on such date in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and such amount drawn shall be treated as an outstanding Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan under this Agreement) and the Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender by telex, telecopy, telegram, telephone (confirmed in writing) or other similar means of transmission, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Agent, for the Issuing Lender’s own account, an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit (to the extent of the amount drawn). Borrower further hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Agent to notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of Borrower’s intent to convert such Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan to a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one (1) month on the third (3^rd) Business Day following the funding by the Revolving Credit Lenders of their advance under this §2.10(f), provided that the making of such Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan shall not be a contravention of any provision of this Agreement. If and to the extent any Revolving Credit Lender shall not make such amount available on the Business Day on which such draw is funded, such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay such amount to the Agent forthwith on demand, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date on which such draw was funded until the date on which such amount is paid to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate until three (3) days after the date on which the Agent gives notice of such draw and at the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus one percent (1.0%) for each day thereafter. Further, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Credit Loans, amounts due with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit and any other amounts due to it hereunder to the Agent to fund the amount of any drawn Letter of Credit which such Revolving Credit Lender was required to fund pursuant to this §2.10(f) until such amount has been funded (as a result of such assignment or otherwise). In the event of any such failure or refusal, the Revolving Credit Lenders not so failing or refusing shall be entitled to a priority secured position for such amounts as provided in §12.5. The failure of any Revolving Credit Lender to make funds available to the Agent in such amount shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation hereunder to make funds available to the Agent pursuant to this §2.10(f). Nothing herein shall limit the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any draws and disbursements made in respect of any Letter of Credit on the same Business Day when any such draw or disbursement is made. If a draw or disbursement with respect to a Letter of Credit is reimbursed by the making of

Loans hereunder, the Borrower’s obligation to pay the amount of such draw or disbursement to the Issuing Lender shall be automatically converted into an obligation to pay the resulting Loans.

(g) If after the issuance of a Letter of Credit pursuant to §2.10(c) by the Issuing Lender, but prior to the funding of any portion thereof by a Revolving Credit Lender, for any reason a drawing under a Letter of Credit cannot be refinanced as a Revolving Credit Loan, each Revolving Credit Lender will, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.10(f) was to have been made, purchase an undivided participation interest in the Letter of Credit in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Letter of Credit. Each Revolving Credit Lender will immediately transfer to the Issuing Lender in immediately available funds the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Issuing Lender will deliver to such Revolving Credit Lender a Letter of Credit participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.

(h) Whenever at any time after the Issuing Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender any such Revolving Credit Lender’s payment of funds under a Letter of Credit and thereafter the Issuing Lender receives any payment on account thereof, then the Issuing Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its participation interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted in the case of interest payments to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Issuing Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Issuing Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.

(i) The issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment, renewal or extension to or of any Letter of Credit shall be treated in all respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit.

(j) Borrower assumes all risks of the acts, omissions, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. Neither Agent, Issuing Lender nor any Lender will be responsible for (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with the conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required by or from a beneficiary in order to make a disbursement under a Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; and (viii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Agent or any Lender, none of the foregoing will affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted

to Agent, Issuing Lender or the Lenders hereunder. In furtherance and extension and not in limitation or derogation of any of the foregoing, any act taken or omitted to be taken by Agent, Issuing Lender or the other Lenders in good faith will be binding on Borrower and will not put Agent, Issuing Lender or the other Lenders under any resulting liability to Borrower; provided nothing contained herein shall relieve Issuing Lender, Agent or any Lender for liability to Borrower arising as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Issuing Lender, Agent or any Lender as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods.

§2.11 Increase in Total Commitment.

(a) Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this §2.11, the Borrower shall have the option at any time and from time to time to request an increase in the Total Commitment to not more than $150,000,000 by giving written notice to the Agent (an “Increase Notice”; and the amount of such requested increase is the “Commitment Increase”), provided that any such individual increase must be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000. Upon receipt of any Increase Notice, the Agent shall consult with Arrangers and shall notify the Borrower of the amount of facility fees to be paid to any Revolving Credit Lenders who provide an additional Revolving Credit Commitment in connection with such increase in the Total Commitment (which shall be in addition to the fees to be paid to Agent or Arrangers pursuant to the Agreement Regarding Fees). If the Borrower agrees to pay the facility fees so determined, then the Agent shall send a notice to all Revolving Credit Lenders (the “Additional Commitment Request Notice”) informing them of the Borrower’s request to increase the Total Commitment and of the facility fees to be paid with respect thereto. Each Revolving Credit Lender who desires to provide an additional Revolving Credit Commitment upon such terms shall provide Agent with a written commitment letter specifying the amount of the additional Revolving Credit Commitment by which it is willing to provide prior to such deadline as may be specified in the Additional Commitment Request Notice. If the requested increase is oversubscribed then the Agent and the Arrangers shall allocate the Commitment Increase among the Revolving Credit Lenders who provide such commitment letters on such basis mutually acceptable to the Borrower, Agent and Arrangers. If the additional Revolving Credit Commitments so provided are not sufficient to provide the full amount of the Commitment Increase requested by the Borrower, then the Agent, Arrangers or Borrower may, but shall not be obligated to, invite, and the Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, will use its reasonable efforts to arrange for, one or more banks or lending institutions (which banks or lending institutions shall be reasonably acceptable to Agent, Arrangers and Borrower) to become a Revolving Credit Lender and provide an additional Revolving Credit Commitment. The Agent shall provide all Revolving Credit Lenders with a notice setting forth the amount, if any, of the additional Revolving Credit Commitment to be provided by each Revolving Credit Lender and the revised Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages which shall be applicable after the effective date of the Commitment Increase specified therein (the “Commitment Increase Date”). In no event shall any Revolving Credit Lender be obligated to provide an additional Revolving Credit Commitment.

(b) On any Commitment Increase Date the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be reallocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders such that after the applicable Commitment Increase Date the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit

Loans owed to each Revolving Credit Lender shall be equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage (as in effect after the applicable Commitment Increase Date) of the outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans. The participation interests of the Revolving Credit Lenders in Swing Loans and Letters of Credit shall be similarly adjusted. On any Commitment Increase Date those Revolving Credit Lenders whose Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage is increasing shall advance the funds to the Agent and the funds so advanced shall be distributed among the Revolving Credit Lenders whose Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage is decreasing as necessary to accomplish the required reallocation of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans. The funds so advanced shall be Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans until converted to Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loans which are allocated among all Revolving Credit Lenders based on their Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages.

(c) Upon the effective date of each increase in the Total Commitment pursuant to this §2.11 the Agent may unilaterally revise Schedule 1.1 and the Borrower shall, if requested by such Lender, execute and deliver to the Agent new Revolving Credit Notes for each Revolving Credit Lender whose Revolving Credit Commitment has changed so that the principal amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Note shall equal its Revolving Credit Commitment. The Agent shall deliver such replacement Revolving Credit Notes to the respective Revolving Credit Lenders in exchange for the Revolving Credit Notes replaced thereby which shall be surrendered by such Revolving Credit Lenders. Such new Revolving Credit Notes shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Revolving Credit Notes and that they do not constitute a novation, shall be dated as of the Commitment Increase Date and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the replaced Revolving Credit Notes.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the obligation of the Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders to increase the Total Commitment pursuant to this §2.11 shall be conditioned upon satisfaction or waiver of the following conditions precedent which must be satisfied or waived prior to the effectiveness of any increase of the Total Commitment:

(i) Payment of Activation Fee. The Borrower shall pay (A) to the Agent those fees described in and contemplated by the Agreement Regarding Fees with respect to the applicable Commitment Increase, and (B) to the Arranger such facility fees as the Revolving Credit Lenders who are providing an additional Revolving Credit Commitment may require to increase the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment, which fees shall, when paid, be fully earned and non-refundable under any circumstances. The Arranger shall pay to the Revolving Credit Lenders acquiring the increased Revolving Credit Commitment certain fees pursuant to their separate agreement; and

(ii) No Default. On the date any Increase Notice is given and on the date such increase becomes effective, both immediately before and after the Total Commitment is increased, there shall exist no Default or Event of Default; and

(iii) Representations True. The representations and warranties made by the Borrower in the Loan Documents or otherwise made by or on behalf of the Loan Parties in connection therewith or after the date thereof shall have been true and correct in all material respects when made and shall also be true and correct in all material respects on the date of such Increase

Notice and on the date the Total Commitment is increased (unless such representations are limited by their terms to a specific date), both immediately before and after the Total Commitment is increased, other than for changes in the ordinary course of business permitted by this Agreement; and

(iv) Additional Documents and Expenses. The Loan Parties shall execute and deliver to Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders such additional documents (including, without limitation, amendments to the Security Documents), instruments, certifications and opinions as the Agent may reasonably require, including, without limitation, a Compliance Certificate, demonstrating compliance with all covenants set forth in the Loan Documents after giving effect to the increase, and the Borrower shall pay the cost of any mortgagee’s title insurance policy or any endorsement or update thereto or any updated UCC searches, all recording costs and fees, and any and all intangible taxes or other documentary or mortgage taxes, assessments or charges or any similar reasonable fees, taxes or expenses which are reasonably requested in connection with such increase.

§3. REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS.

§3.1 Stated Maturity. The Borrower promises to pay on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and there shall become absolutely due and payable on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date all of the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Loans and other Letter of Credit Liabilities outstanding on such date (other than Letters of Credit whose expiration date is beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date as set forth in §2.10(a)), together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

§3.2 Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, the Swing Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities exceeds the lesser of (a) the Total Commitment or (b) the Borrowing Base Availability, then the Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice from Agent of such occurrence, pay the amount of such excess to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, for application to the Revolving Credit Loans as provided in §3.4, together with any additional amounts payable pursuant to §4.8, except that the amount of any Swing Loans shall be paid solely to the Swing Loan Lender.

In the event there shall have occurred a casualty with respect to any Collateral Property and the Borrower is required to repay the Loans pursuant to §7.7 or a Taking and the Borrower is required to repay the Loans pursuant to a Mortgage or §7.7, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans concurrently with the date of receipt by such Loan Party or the Agent of all of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds to be received in respect of such casualty or Taking, as applicable, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, in the amount required pursuant to the relevant provisions of §7.7 or such Mortgage.

§3.3 Optional Prepayments.

(a) Borrower shall have the right, at its election, to prepay the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans, as a whole or in part, at any time without penalty

or premium; provided, that if any prepayment of the outstanding amount of any Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loans pursuant to this §3.3 is made on a date that is not the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, such prepayment shall be accompanied by the payment of any amounts due pursuant to §4.8.

(b) The Borrower shall give the Agent, no later than 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) at least three (3) days prior written notice of any prepayment pursuant to this §3.3, in each case specifying the proposed date of prepayment of the Loans and the principal amount to be prepaid (provided that (i) any such notice may be revoked or modified upon one (1) day’s prior notice to the Agent) and/or (ii) any such notice or repayment may be conditioned upon the consummation of a transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no prior notice shall be required for the prepayment of any Swing Loan.

§3.4 Partial Prepayments. Each partial prepayment of the Loans under §3.3 shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000, shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest on the principal prepaid to the date of payment. Each partial payment under §3.2 and §3.3 shall be applied first to the principal of any Outstanding Swing Loans, then, in the absence of instruction by the Borrower, to the principal of Loans (and with respect to each category of Revolving Credit Loans, first to the principal of Base Rate Loans, and then to the principal of LIBOR Rate Loans).

§3.5 Effect of Prepayments. Amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans prepaid under §3.2 and §3.3 prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date may be reborrowed as provided in §2.

§3.6 Extension. The Borrower shall have the right and option on a single occasion to extend the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (the “Revolving Extension Option”) for a one year period to December 21, 2020, upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

(a) Extension Request. The Borrower shall deliver written notice of such request to exercise the Revolving Extension Option (the “Revolving Extension Request”) to the Agent not earlier than the date which is one hundred twenty (120) days, and not later than the date which is sixty (60) days prior to the then applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension).

(b) Payment of Extension Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the pro rata accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments an extension fee in an amount equal to twenty five (25) basis points of the Total Commitment on the applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension). Each such fee shall be due prior to the then applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension) and when paid, be fully earned and non-refundable under any circumstances.

(c) No Default. On the date each Revolving Extension Request is given and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension) there shall exist no Default or Event of Default, and, without limiting the generality of the forgoing, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension) the Borrower

shall be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in §9 determined as of the then Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension).

(d) Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent any such representations or warranty is qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect, in which case such representations or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on the applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension) (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct only as of such specified date).

§4. CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS.

§4.1 Conversion Options.

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any of its outstanding Revolving Credit Loans to a Revolving Credit Loan of another Type and such Revolving Credit Loans shall thereafter bear interest as a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan, as applicable; provided that (i) with respect to any such conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice of such election, and such conversion shall only be made on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such LIBOR Rate Loan unless the Borrower pays Breakage Costs as required under this Agreement; (ii) with respect to any such conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three (3) LIBOR Business Days’ prior written notice of such election and the Interest Period requested for such Loan, the principal amount of the Loan so converted shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 and, after giving effect to the making of such Loan, there shall be no more than six (6) Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time; and (iii) no Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. All or any part of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of any Type may be converted as provided herein, provided that no partial conversion shall result in a Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan in a principal amount of less than $100,000 or a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan in a principal amount of less than $100,000. On the date on which such conversion is being made, each Lender shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage of such Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be. Each Conversion/Continuation Request relating to the conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be irrevocable by the Borrower.

(b) Any LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such Type upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the Borrower with the terms of §4.1; provided that no LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default.

(c) In the event that the Borrower does not notify the Agent of their election hereunder with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, such Loan shall be automatically continued at

the end of the applicable Interest Period as a LIBOR Rate Loan for an Interest Period of one month unless such Interest Period shall be greater than the time remaining until the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, in which case such Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period.

§4.2 Fees. In addition to all fees specified herein, the Borrower agrees to pay to KeyBank and the Arranger for their own account certain fees for services rendered or to be rendered in connection with the Loans as provided pursuant to a fee letter dated November 8, 2017 between the Borrower, KeyBank and the Arranger (the “Agreement Regarding Fees”).

§4.3 [Intentionally Omitted.]

§4.4 Funds for Payments.

(a) All payments of principal, interest, facility fees, closing fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made to the Agent, for the respective accounts of the Lenders and the Agent, as the case may be, at the Agent’s Head Office, not later than 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the day when due (or such later time as is acceptable to the Agent in the event of a payment in full of all Loans and a termination of Commitments hereunder), in each case in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds. To the extent not already paid pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Agent is hereby authorized to charge the accounts of the Loan Parties with KeyBank, on the dates when the amount thereof shall become due and payable, with the amounts of the principal of and interest on the Loans and all fees, charges, expenses and other amounts owing to the Agent and/or the Lenders (including the Swing Loan Lender) under the Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, all payments made to Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and actually received by Agent, shall be deemed received by the Lenders on the date actually received by Agent.

(b) All payments by the Borrower or Guarantors hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim, and free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Legal Requirements. If any Legal Requirement (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Legal Requirements and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or other applicable Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this §4.4) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) The Borrower and the Guarantors shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Legal Requirements, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) The Borrower and the Guarantors shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this §4.4) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that the determinations in such statement are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

(e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower or a Guarantor has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower and the Guarantors to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of §18.4 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this subsection.

(f) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or any Guarantor to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this §4.4, such Borrower or such Guarantor shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(g) (%3) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Legal Requirements or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in the immediately following clauses (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material

unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person:

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(I) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(II) an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;

(III) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

(IV) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-2 or Exhibit J-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Agent) of any other form prescribed by Legal Requirements as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Legal Requirements to permit the Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by Legal Requirements and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by Legal Requirements (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this §4.4 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this §4.4), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this §4.4 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable third party out-of-pocket

expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party actually incurred and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund has not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it reasonably deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) Each party’s obligations under this §4.4 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(j) The obligations of the Borrower to the Lenders under this Agreement (and of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make payments to the Issuing Lender with respect to Letters of Credit and to the Swing Loan Lender with respect to Swing Loans) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit; (ii) any improper use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any improper acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit in connection therewith; (iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or any right which the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting) or the Lenders (other than the defense of payment to the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or any other person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any unrelated transaction; (iv) any draft, demand, certificate, statement or any other documents presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be insufficient, forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (v) any breach of any agreement between Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit; (vi) any irregularity in the transaction with respect to which any Letter of Credit is issued, including any fraud by the beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit; (vii) payment by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a sight draft, demand, certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, provided that such payment shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Lender as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods; (viii) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of such Letter of Credit; (ix) the legality,

validity, form, regularity or enforceability of the Letter of Credit; (x) the failure of any payment by Issuing Lender to conform to the terms of a Letter of Credit (if, in Issuing Lender’s good faith judgment, such payment is determined to be appropriate); (xi) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (xii) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; and (xiii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, provided that nothing contained herein shall relieve Issuing Lender, Agent or any Lender for liability to Borrower arising as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Lender, Agent, any Lender or the Swing Loan Lender, as applicable as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods.

§4.5 Computations. All computations of interest on the Loans and of other fees to the extent applicable shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Except as otherwise provided in the definition of the term “Interest Period” with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension. The Outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities as reflected on the records of the Agent from time to time shall be considered prima facie evidence of such amount.

§4.6 Suspension of LIBOR Rate Loans. In the event that, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Agent shall determine that adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period, or the Agent shall reasonably determine that LIBOR will not accurately and fairly reflect the cost of the Lenders making or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders absent manifest error) to the Borrower and the Lenders. In such event (a) any Loan Request with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate Loan and (b) each LIBOR Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, become a Base Rate Loan, and the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent determines that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Agent shall so notify the Borrower and the Lenders.

§4.7 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority having jurisdiction over a Lender or its LIBOR Lending Office shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, such Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Agent and the Borrower thereupon (a) the commitment of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) the LIBOR Rate Loans then outstanding shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, before giving such notice, the applicable Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation will void the need for giving such notice and will not, in the reasonable judgment of

such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender or increase any costs payable by Borrower hereunder.

§4.8 Additional Interest. If any LIBOR Rate Loan or any portion thereof is repaid or is converted to a Base Rate Loan for any reason on a date which is prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan, or if repayment of the Loans has been accelerated as provided in §12.1, the Borrower will pay to the Agent upon demand for the account of the applicable Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (or to the Swing Loan Lender with respect to a Swing Loan), in addition to any amounts of interest otherwise payable hereunder, the Breakage Costs. Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges the following: (i) no Lender has any obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the use of LIBOR as a basis for calculating the rate of interest on a LIBOR Rate Loan; (ii) LIBOR is used merely as a reference in determining such rate; and (iii) Borrower has accepted LIBOR as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating such rate and any Breakage Costs. Borrower further agrees to pay the Breakage Costs, if any, whether or not a Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds.

§4.9 Additional Costs, Etc. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Change in Law, shall:

(a) subject any Lender or the Agent to any Taxes or withholding of any nature with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such Lender’s Commitment, a Letter of Credit or the Loans (other than for Indemnified Taxes, Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and Connection Income Taxes), or

(b) materially change the basis of taxation (except for changes in taxes on gross receipts, income or profits or its franchise tax) of payments to any Lender of the principal of or the interest on any Loans or any other amounts payable to any Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or

(c) impose or increase or render applicable any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law and which are not already reflected in any amounts payable by Borrower hereunder) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or commitments of an office of any Lender, or

(d) impose on any Lender or the Agent any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Loans, such Lender’s Commitment, a Letter of Credit or any class of loans or commitments of which any of the Loans or such Lender’s Commitment forms a part; and the result of any of the foregoing is:

(i) to increase the cost to any Lender of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the Loans, the Letters of Credit or such Lender’s Commitment, or

(ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest or other amount payable to any Lender or the Agent hereunder on account of such Lender’s Commitment or any of the Loans or the Letters of Credit, or

(iii) to require any Lender or the Agent to make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Lender or the Agent from the Borrower hereunder, then, and in each such case, the Borrower will (and as to clauses (a) and (b) above, subject to the provisions of §4.4), within thirty (30) days of demand made by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Lender or the Agent such additional amounts as such Lender or the Agent shall reasonably determine in good faith to be sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum.

§4.10 Capital Adequacy. If after the date hereof any Lender determines that (a) as a result of a Change in Law, or (b) compliance by such Lender or its parent bank holding company with any directive of any such entity regarding liquidity or capital adequacy (which is generally applicable to all lenders and not primarily or solely applicable to Lender), has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s commitment to make Loans or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such holding company’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then such Lender may notify the Borrower thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender the amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such reduction is reasonably determined, upon presentation by such Lender of a statement of the amount setting forth the Lender’s calculation thereof. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally applied by such Lender.

Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and regardless of whether or not the Agent or the Lenders shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans, all Loans shall bear interest payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to four percent (4.0%) above the interest rate that would otherwise be in effect hereunder (the “Default Rate”), until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well as before judgment). In addition, the Borrower shall pay a late charge equal to four percent (4.0%) of any amount of interest and/or principal payable on the Loans (other than amounts due on the Maturity Date or as a result of acceleration), which is not paid by the Borrower within ten (10) days of the date when due.

§4.13 Certificate. A certificate setting forth any amounts payable pursuant to §4.8, §4.9, §4.10, §4.11 or §4.12 and a reasonably detailed explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by any Lender or the Agent to the Borrower, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due. A Lender shall be entitled to reimbursement under §4.9, or §4.10 from and after notice to Borrower that such amounts are due given in accordance with §4.9 or §4.10 and for a period of ninety (90) days prior to receipt of such notice.

§4.14 Limitation on Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, all agreements between or among the Borrower, the Lenders and the Agent, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of any of the Obligations or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Lenders exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be payable to the Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to the Lenders shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under applicable law; and if from any circumstance the Lenders shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and to the payment of interest or, if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Obligations, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrower. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal of the Obligations (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest thereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. This Section shall control all agreements between or among the Borrower, the Lenders and the Agent.

§4.15 Certain Provisions Relating to Increased Costs and Non-Funding Lenders. If a Lender gives notice of the existence of the circumstances set forth in §4.7 or any Lender requests compensation for any losses or costs to be reimbursed pursuant to any one or more of the provisions of §4.4(b) (as a result of the imposition of U.S. withholding taxes on amounts paid to such Lender under this Agreement), §4.9 or §4.10, then, upon the request of the Borrower, such Lender, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts in a manner consistent with such institution’s practice in connection with loans like the Loan of such Lender to eliminate, mitigate or reduce amounts that would otherwise be payable by Borrower under the foregoing provisions, provided that such action would not be otherwise prejudicial to such Lender, including, without limitation, by designating another of such Lender’s offices, branches or affiliates; the Borrower agreeing to pay all reasonable and necessary costs and expenses incurred by such Lender in connection with any such action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and if any Lender (a) has given notice of the existence of the circumstances set forth in §4.7 or has requested payment or compensation for any losses or costs to be reimbursed pursuant to any one or more of the provisions of §4.4(b) (as a result of the imposition of U.S. withholding taxes on amounts paid to such Lender under this Agreement), §4.9 or §4.10 and following the request of Borrower has been unable to take the steps described above to mitigate such amounts (each, an “Affected Lender”) or (b) has failed to make available to Agent its pro rata share of any Loan or participation in a Letter of Credit or Swing Loan and such failure

has not been cured (a “Non-Funding Lender”), then, within ninety (90) days after such notice or request for payment or compensation or failure to fund, as applicable, Borrower shall have the right as to such Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, to be exercised by delivery of written notice delivered to the Agent and the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, within ninety (90) days of receipt of such notice or failure to fund, as applicable, to elect to cause the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, to transfer its Commitment. The Agent shall promptly notify the remaining Lenders that each of such Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire a portion of the Commitment, pro rata based upon their relevant Commitment Percentages, of the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable (or if any of such Lenders does not elect to purchase its pro rata share, then to such remaining Lenders in such proportion as approved by the Agent). In the event that the Lenders do not elect to acquire all of the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment, then the Agent shall endeavor to obtain a new Lender to acquire such remaining Commitment. Upon any such purchase of the Commitment of the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s interest in the Obligations and its rights hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall terminate at the date of purchase, and the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest. The purchase price for the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment shall equal any and all amounts outstanding and owed by Borrower to the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, including principal, prepayment premium or fee, and all accrued and unpaid interest or fees.

(b) The Agent may obtain additional Appraisals of the Collateral Properties at the Lenders’ expense.

(c) The Borrower acknowledges that the Agent has the right to reasonably approve any Appraisal performed pursuant to this Agreement.

statements contained in such Appraisal, including without limitation, the accuracy and completeness of information, estimates, conclusions and opinions contained in such Appraisal, or variance of such Appraisal from the fair value of such property that is the subject of such Appraisal given by the local tax assessor’s office, or the Borrower’s idea of the value of such property.

§6.21 Subsidiaries; Organizational Structure. Schedule 6.21(a) sets forth, as of the Effective Date, all of the Subsidiary Guarantors, the form and jurisdiction of organization of each of their Subsidiaries, and the owners of the direct ownership interests therein. On the Effective Date, no Person owns any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in any of the Subsidiary Guarantors except as set forth on such Schedules. As of the Effective Date, the REIT owns 84.47% of the Equity Interests in the Borrower.

§6.22 Leases. The Loan Parties have delivered to the Agent true and complete copies of the Leases and any amendments thereto relating to each Collateral Property required to be delivered

as a part of the Eligible Real Estate Qualification Documents as of the date hereof. An accurate and complete Rent Roll in all material respects as of the date of inclusion of each Collateral Property in the Collateral with respect to all Leases of any portion of the Collateral Property has been provided to the Agent. The Leases previously delivered to Agent as described in the preceding sentence constitute as of the date thereof the sole material agreements relating to leasing or licensing of space at such Collateral Property and in the Building relating thereto. No tenant under any Lease is entitled to any free rent, partial rent, rebate of rent payments, credit, offset or deduction in rent, including, without limitation, lease support payments or lease buy-outs, except as reflected in such Leases or such Rent Roll. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.22, the Leases reflected therein are, as of the date of inclusion of the applicable Collateral Property in the Collateral, in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms, without any payment default or any other material default thereunder, nor are there any material defenses, counterclaims, offsets, concessions or rebates available to any tenant thereunder, and except as reflected in Schedule 6.22, no Borrower has given or made, any notice of any payment or other material default, or any claim, which remains uncured or unsatisfied, with respect to any of the Leases, and to the best of the knowledge and belief of the Loan Parties, there is no basis for any such claim or notice of default by any tenant except in the case of any of the foregoing, those matters which would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Borrower knows of any condition which with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would constitute a default on the part of any tenant with respect to the material terms under a Lease or of the respective Borrower as landlord under the Lease, which would result in a Material Adverse Effect. No security deposit or advance rental or fee payment (more than 2 months in advance) has been made by any lessee or licensor under the Leases except as may be specifically designated in the copies of the Leases furnished to the Agent or as otherwise disclosed to Agent in writing. No property other than the Collateral Property which is the subject of the applicable Lease is necessary to comply with the requirements (including, without limitation, parking requirements) contained in such Lease.

§6.23 Property. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.23 or as set forth in the written engineer reports provided to Agent on or before the date hereof or in connection with the inclusion of any applicable Collateral Property, all of the Collateral Properties, and all major building systems located thereon, are structurally sound, in good condition and working order and free from material defects, subject to ordinary wear and tear, except for such portion of such Real Estate which is not occupied by any tenant and which may not be in final working order pending final build-out of such space except where such defects have not had and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Collateral Properties, and the use and operation thereof, is in material compliance with all applicable federal and state law and governmental regulations and any local ordinances, orders or regulations, including without limitation, laws, regulations and ordinances relating to zoning, building codes, subdivision, fire protection, health, safety, handicapped access, historic preservation and protection, wetlands, tidelands, and Environmental Laws except in cases that would not reasonably cause a Material Adverse Effect. All water, sewer, electric, gas, telephone and other utilities necessary for the use and operation of the Collateral Property are installed to the property lines of the Collateral Property through dedicated public rights of way or through perpetual private easements with respect to which the applicable Mortgage creates a valid and enforceable first lien subject to Permitted Liens and, except in the case of drainage facilities, are connected to the Building located thereon with valid permits and are adequate

to service the Building in compliance with applicable law, and except where the failure of any of the foregoing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no material unpaid or outstanding real estate or other taxes or assessments on or against any of the Collateral Properties which are payable by any Loan Party (except only real estate or other taxes or assessments, that are not yet delinquent or are being protested as permitted by this Agreement). Except as otherwise disclosed to Agent in writing, there are no pending, or to the knowledge of Loan Parties threatened or contemplated, eminent domain proceedings against any of the Collateral Properties. Except as otherwise disclosed to Agent in writing, none of the Collateral Properties is now damaged as a result of any fire, explosion, accident, flood or other casualty. Except as otherwise disclosed to Agent in writing, none of the Loan Parties has received any outstanding notice from any insurer or its agent requiring performance of any work with respect to any of the Collateral Properties or canceling or threatening to cancel any policy of insurance, and each of the Collateral Properties complies with the material requirements of all of the Borrower’s insurance carriers, except where any of the foregoing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as otherwise disclosed to Agent, the Loan Parties have no Management Agreements for any of the Collateral Properties. To the best knowledge of the Loan Parties, there are no materials claims or any bases for material claims in respect of any Collateral Property or its operation by any party to any service agreement or Management Agreement, that would have a Material Adverse Effect. No person or entity has any right or option to acquire any Collateral Property or any Building thereon or any portion thereof or interest therein, except for certain tenants pursuant to the terms of their Leases with Subsidiary Guarantors.

§6.24 Brokers. None of the Loan Parties nor any of their respective Subsidiaries has engaged or otherwise dealt with any broker, finder or similar entity in connection with this Agreement or the Loans contemplated hereunder.

§6.25 Other Debt. None of the Loan Parties is a party to or bound by any agreement, instrument or indenture that requires the subordination in right or time or payment of any of the Obligations to any other indebtedness or obligation of any Loan Party. Schedule 6.25 hereto sets forth all agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust, financing agreements or other material agreements binding upon the Borrower or their respective properties and entered into by the Loan Parties as of the date of this Agreement with respect to any Indebtedness of the Loan Parties, excluding, as to the Borrower and REIT, any customary non-recourse carve out guaranties or environmental indemnification agreements.

§6.26 Solvency.

§6.27 No Bankruptcy Filing. As of the Effective Date, no Loan Party is contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the

liquidation of its assets or property, and the Loan Parties have no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it.

§6.28 No Fraudulent Intent. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents nor the performance of any actions required hereunder or thereunder is being undertaken by any Loan Party with or as a result of any actual intent by any of such Persons to hinder, delay or defraud any entity to which any of such Persons is now or will hereafter become indebted.

§6.29 Transaction in Best Interests of Loan Parties; Consideration. The transaction evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents is in the best interests of each Loan Party. The direct and indirect benefits to inure to the Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute substantially more than “reasonably equivalent value” (as such term is used in §548 of the Bankruptcy Code) and “valuable consideration,” “fair value,” and “fair consideration,” (as such terms are used in any applicable state fraudulent conveyance law), in exchange for the benefits to be provided by the Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and but for the willingness of each Guarantor to be a guarantor of the Loan, the Borrower would be unable to obtain the financing contemplated hereunder which financing will enable the Borrower to have available financing to conduct and expand its business. The Loan Parties further acknowledge and agree that the Loan Parties constitute a single integrated and common enterprise and that each receives a benefit from the availability of credit under this Agreement.

(e) No Borrower shall carry separate insurance, concurrent in kind or form or contributing in the event of loss, with any insurance required under this Agreement unless such insurance complies with the terms and provisions of this §7.7.

(f) In the event of any loss or damage to the Collateral Property in excess of $1,000,000, the Borrower shall give prompt written notice to the insurance carrier and the Agent. Subject to the provisions of (g) below, each Loan Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Agent, at the Agent’s option and in the Agent’s sole discretion or at the request of the Required Lenders in their sole discretion, as its attorney in fact, to make proof of such loss, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from such insurance policies, to collect and receive Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds, and to deduct therefrom the Agent’s reasonable expenses incurred in the collection of such Insurance Proceeds; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and so long as the applicable Borrower shall in good faith diligently pursue such claim, (i) Agent agrees not to exercise (and the Required Lenders shall not request Agent to exercise) the above-referenced authorization and empowerment as attorney in fact for the applicable Borrower, and (ii) the applicable Borrower may make proof of loss and appear in any proceedings or negotiations with respect to the adjustment of such claim, except that the applicable Borrower may not settle, adjust or compromise any such claim without the prior written consent of the Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, further, that the applicable Borrower may, without the consent of Agent, make proof of loss and adjust and compromise any claim under casualty insurance policies which is in an amount less than $500,000 so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and so long as the applicable Borrower shall in good faith diligently pursue such claim. Subject to the provisions of (g) below, the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor further authorizes the Agent, at the Agent’s option, to (i) apply the balance of such Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds to the payment of the Obligations whether or not then due, or (ii) if the Agent shall require the reconstruction or repair of the Collateral Property, to hold the balance of such proceeds as trustee to be used to pay taxes, charges, sewer use fees, water rates and assessments which may be imposed on the Collateral Property which are then due and payable and the Obligations as they become due during the course of reconstruction or repair of the Collateral Property and to pay, in accordance with such terms and conditions as the Agent or other lenders of construction projects may prescribe, for the costs of reconstruction or repair of the Collateral Property, and upon completion of such reconstruction or repair to pay the excess to Borrower.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in the Mortgages, the Agent shall make Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds available to the Borrower to reconstruct and repair the Collateral Property, in accordance with such customary terms and conditions as the Agent may reasonably prescribe in the Agent’s discretion for the disbursement of the proceeds, provided that (i) the cost of such reconstruction or repair is not estimated by the Agent to exceed twenty percent (20%) of the replacement cost of the damaged Building (as reasonably estimated by the Agent) or the applicable Borrower is required under any applicable lease to restore the property and the failure to do so would constitute a default under such lease, (ii)

no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (other than any Event of Default occurring solely as a result of such casualty or condemnation), (iii) the Borrower shall have provided to the Agent additional cash security in an amount equal to the amount reasonably estimated by the Agent to be the amount in excess of such proceeds which will be required to complete such repair or restoration, (iv) the Agent shall have approved the plans and specifications, construction budget, construction contracts, and construction schedule for such repair or restoration and reasonably determined that the repaired or restored Collateral Property will provide the Agent with adequate security for the Obligations (which security should be deemed adequate if such security is substantially comparable to the security in place prior to such casualty or condemnation) (provided that the Agent shall not disapprove such plans and specifications if the Building is to be restored to substantially its condition immediately prior to such damage), (v) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Agent written agreements binding upon not less than fifty percent (50%) of the tenants or other parties having present or future rights to possession of any portion of the affected Collateral Property or having any right to require repair, restoration or completion of the Collateral Property or any portion thereof (determined by reference to those tenants in the aggregate occupying or having rights to occupy not less than fifty percent (50%) of the Net Rentable Area of the Building so damaged), agreeing upon a date for delivery of possession of the Collateral Property or their respective portions thereof, to permit time which is sufficient in the judgment of the Agent for such repair or restoration and approving the plans and specifications for such repair or restoration, or other evidence satisfactory to the Agent that none of such tenants or other parties may terminate their Leases as a result of such casualty or as a result of having a right to approve the plans and specifications for such repair or restoration, (vi) the Agent shall reasonably determine that such repair or reconstruction can be completed prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, (vii) the Agent shall receive evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that any such restoration, repair or rebuilding complies in all respects with any and all applicable state, federal and local laws, ordinances and regulations, including without limitation, zoning laws, ordinances and regulations, and that all required permits, licenses and approvals relative thereto have been or will be issued in a manner so as not to materially impede the progress of restoration, (viii) the Agent shall receive customary evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that the insurer under such policies of fire or other casualty insurance does not assert any defense to payment under such policies against any Loan Party or the Agent (or the Loan Parties shall have provided security for any amounts with respect to which the insurance carrier is asserting any defense to payment), and (ix) with respect to any Taking, Agent shall determine that following such repair or restoration there shall be no more than the lesser of (i) a twenty-five percent (25%) reduction in occupancy or rental income from the Collateral Property so affected by such specific condemnation or taking (excluding any proceeds from rental loss insurance or proceeds from such award allocable to rent) or (ii) a fifteen percent (15%) reduction in occupancy or in rental income from all of the Collateral Properties (excluding any proceeds from rental loss insurance or proceeds of such award allocable to rent), after giving effect to the current condemnation or taking and any previous condemnations or takings which may have occurred. Any excess Insurance Proceeds shall be paid to the Borrower, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (other than any Event of Default occurring solely as a result of such casualty or condemnation), such proceeds shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations, unless in either case by the terms of the applicable insurance policy the excess proceeds are required to be returned to such insurer. Any excess Condemnation Proceeds shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations. In no event shall the provisions of this section be construed to extend the

Revolving Credit Maturity Date or to limit in any way any right or remedy of the Agent upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder. If the Collateral Property is sold or the Collateral Property is acquired by the Agent, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in and to any insurance policies and unearned premiums thereon (other than in connection with any blanket policy) and in and to the proceeds thereof resulting from loss or damage to the Collateral Property prior to the sale or acquisition shall pass to the Agent or any other successor in interest to the Loan Parties or purchaser of the Collateral Property.

With respect to all other Real Estate of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the Borrower or such Subsidiary shall pay and discharge as the same shall become due and payable all tax liabilities, assessments and governmental charges or levies upon it or its properties or assets, unless (a) the same are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP are being maintained by the Borrower or such Subsidiary or (b) the failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

§7.9 Inspection of Collateral Properties and Books. The Loan Parties will, and will cause their respective Subsidiaries to, permit the Agent and the Lenders, at the Borrower’s expense (subject to the limitation set forth below) and upon reasonable prior notice, to visit and inspect any of the Collateral Properties during normal business hours, to examine the books of account of the Loan Parties (and to make copies thereof and extracts therefrom) and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Loan Parties with, and to be advised as to the same by, their respective officers, partners or members, all at such reasonable times and intervals as the Agent or any Lender may reasonably request, provided that so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall not be required to pay for such visits and inspections more often than once in any twelve (12) month period.

If any authorization, consent, approval, permit or license from any officer, agency or instrumentality of any government shall become necessary or required in order that the Loan Parties or their respective Subsidiaries may fulfill any of its obligations hereunder, the Loan Parties or such Subsidiary will immediately take or cause to be taken all steps necessary to obtain such authorization, consent, approval, permit or license and furnish the Agent and the Lenders with evidence thereof, except where the failure to obtain the foregoing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Agent may condition any approval of a new manager upon the execution and delivery to Agent of collateral assignment of such Management Agreement to Agent and a subordination of the manager’s rights thereunder to the rights of the Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents. The Management Agreements described on Schedule 6.23 hereto relating to the existing Collateral Properties are approved by Agent.

If the Borrower submits to Agent a written request for approval with respect to a proposed Lease and/or any such action with respect to a Lease and Agent fails to approve or disapprove any such proposed Lease and/or any such action within ten (10) days after Agent receives from the Borrower such request together with a copy of the final version of such proposed Lease, as applicable, then the Borrower may provide to the Agent a second written request for approval with respect to a proposed Lease which includes the following in all capital, bolded, block letters on the first page thereof:

“THE FOLLOWING REQUEST REQUIRES A RESPONSE WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS OF RECEIPT. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL BE DEEMED AN APPROVAL OF THE REQUEST.”

and if the foregoing legend is included by the Borrower in its communication, the Agent shall be deemed to have approved or consented to such proposed Lease and/or such action if the Agent fails to object to such proposed Lease and/or such action within ten (10) days (without counting the day of receipt) of Agent’s receipt of such second notice.

Borrower shall cause each Major Tenant, to enter into a non-disturbance agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Agent and such Major Tenant with respect to each Major Lease, and Agent agrees, upon request, to enter into a non-disturbance agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Agent and any tenant and/or licensee, and the Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Agent.

The Subsidiary Guarantors shall:

(i) in the event of any change in applicable Environmental Laws governing the assessment, release or removal of Hazardous Substances with respect to any Collateral Property, take all reasonable action as required by such Laws, and

(ii) if any Release or disposal of Hazardous Substances which Subsidiary Guarantors are legally obligated to contain, correct or otherwise remediate shall occur or shall have occurred on any Collateral Property (including without limitation any such Release or disposal occurring prior to the acquisition or leasing of such Collateral Property by the Subsidiary Guarantor), the relevant Borrower shall, after obtaining knowledge thereof, cause the performance of actions required by applicable Environmental Laws at the Collateral Property in material compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws; provided, that each of the Loan Parties shall be deemed to be in compliance with Environmental Laws for the purpose of this clause (ii) so long as it or a responsible third party with sufficient financial resources is taking reasonable action to remediate or manage

such event to the reasonable satisfaction of the Agent or has taken and is diligently pursuing a challenge to any such alleged legal obligation through appropriate administrative or judicial proceedings. The Agent may engage its own Environmental Engineer to review the environmental assessments and the compliance with the covenants contained herein.

At any time after an Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder, the Agent may at its election (and will at the request of the Required Lenders) obtain such environmental assessments of any or all of the Collateral Properties prepared by an Environmental Engineer as may be reasonably necessary or advisable for the purpose of evaluating or confirming (i) whether any Hazardous Substances are present in the soil or water at any such Collateral Property in a quantity or condition that is required to be contained, corrected or otherwise remediated by the owner or operator of the Collateral Property pursuant to applicable Environmental Laws and (ii) whether the use and operation of any such Collateral Property complies with all Environmental Laws to the extent required by the Loan Documents. Additionally, at any time that the Agent or the Required Lenders shall have reasonable and objective grounds to believe that a Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Substances may have occurred at or from any Collateral Property which the owner or operator of such property would be obligated to contain, correct or otherwise remediate pursuant to applicable Environmental Laws, or that any of the Collateral Property is not in compliance with Environmental Laws to the extent required by the Loan Documents, Borrower shall promptly upon the request of Agent obtain and deliver to Agent such environmental assessments of such Collateral Property prepared by an Environmental Engineer as may be reasonably necessary or advisable for the purpose of evaluating or confirming (i) whether any Hazardous Substances are present in the soil or water at such Collateral Property and (ii) whether the use and operation of such Collateral Property complies with all Environmental Laws to the extent required by the Loan Documents. Environmental assessments may include detailed visual inspections of such Collateral Property including, without limitation, any and all storage areas, storage tanks, drains, dry wells and leaching areas, and the taking of soil samples, as well as such other investigations or analyses as are reasonably necessary or appropriate for a complete determination of the compliance of such Collateral Property and the use and operation thereof with all applicable Environmental Laws. All reasonable expenses of environmental assessments contemplated by this §8.6 shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Loan Party shall permit the REIT to make directly or indirectly any Distributions if a Default or an Event of Default is in existence, other than Distributions of such amounts as are necessary for the REIT to maintain its status as a real estate investment trust.

No remedy herein conferred upon the Agent or the holder of any Note is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement providing that the Loans may be evidenced by multiple Notes in favor of the Lenders, the Lenders acknowledge and agree that only the Agent may exercise any remedies arising by reason of a Default or Event of Default. If the Borrower fails to perform any agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents beyond any applicable period for notice and cure, Agent may itself perform, or cause to be performed, any agreement or covenant of such Person contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which such Person shall fail to perform, and the out-of-pocket costs of such performance, together with any reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred (including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in any appeal) by Agent in connection therewith, shall be payable by Borrower upon demand and shall constitute a part of the Obligations and shall if not paid within five (5) days after demand bear interest at the rate for overdue amounts as set forth in this Agreement.

(a) First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the reimbursement of the Agent for or in respect of, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses, disbursements and losses which shall have been paid, incurred or sustained by the Agent in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents to protect or preserve the Collateral or in connection with the collection of such monies by the Agent, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Agent of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in respect of the Collateral or in support of any provision of adequate indemnity to the Agent against any taxes or liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the rights of the Agent or the Lenders to such monies;

(b) Second, to all other Obligations and Hedge Obligations (including any Letter of Credit Liabilities, interest, expenses or other obligations incurred after the commencement of a bankruptcy) in such order or preference as the Required Lenders shall determine; provided, that (i) Swing Loans shall be repaid first, (ii) distributions in respect of such other Obligations shall include, on a pari passu basis, any Agent’s fee payable pursuant to §4.2; (iii) in the event that any Lender shall have wrongfully failed or refused to make an advance under §2.5(d), §2.7 or §2.10(f) and such failure or refusal shall be continuing, advances made by other Lenders during the pendency of such failure or refusal shall be entitled to be repaid as to principal and accrued interest in priority to the other Obligations and Hedge Obligations described in this subsection (b); and (iv) Obligations owing to the Lenders with respect to each type of Obligation such as interest, principal, fees and expenses and Hedge Obligations shall be made among the Lenders, pro rata, and among the Lender Hedge Providers pro rata; and provided, further that the Required Lenders may in their discretion make proper allowance to take into account any Obligations and Hedge Obligations not then due and payable;

§12.6 Remedies in Respect of Hedge Obligations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or other Loan Document, each Lender Hedge Provider shall have the right, with prompt notice to the Agent, but without the approval or consent of or other action by the Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Lenders, and without limitation of other remedies available to such Lender Hedge Provider under contract or other Legal Requirements, to undertake any of the following: (a) to declare an event of default, termination event or other similar event under any Hedge Obligation and to create an “Early Termination Date” (as defined therein) in respect thereof, (b) to determine net termination amounts in respect of any and all Derivatives Contracts to which it is a party in accordance with the terms thereof, and to set off amounts among such contracts, (c) to set off or proceed against deposit account balances, securities account balances and other property and amounts held by such Lender Hedge Provider and (d) to prosecute any legal action against

the Borrower, any Loan Party or other Subsidiary to enforce or collect net amounts owing to such Lender Hedge Provider pursuant to any Derivatives Contract.

No Lender Hedge Provider that obtains the benefits of §12.5 by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Loan Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of any Loan Document other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article to the contrary, the Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Derivative Contracts with respect to Hedge Obligations unless the Agent has received written notice of such Derivatives Contracts, together with such supporting documentation as the Agent may request, from the applicable Lender Hedge Provider.

§13. SETOFF.

Regardless of the adequacy of any Collateral, during the continuance of any Event of Default, any deposits (general or specific, time or demand, provisional or final, regardless of currency, maturity, or the branch where such deposits are held) or other sums credited by or due from any Lender or any Affiliate thereof to the Loan Parties and any securities or other property of the Loan Parties in the possession of such Lender or any Affiliate may, without notice to any Loan Party (any such notice being expressly waived by Loan Parties) but with the prior written approval of Agent, be applied to or set off against the payment of Obligations and any and all other liabilities, direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, of the Loan Parties to such Lender. Each of the Lenders agrees with each other Lender that if such Lender shall receive from the Borrower, whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the right of setoff, or otherwise, and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Note or Notes held by such Lender (but excluding the Swing Loan Note) any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by all of the Lenders with respect to the Notes held by all of the Lenders, such Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Lenders with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Lender receiving in respect of the Notes held by it its proportionate payment as contemplated by this Agreement; provided that if all or any part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. In the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

§14. THE AGENT.

§14.1 Authorization. The Agent is authorized to take such action on behalf of each of the Lenders and to exercise all such powers as are hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents

and any related documents delegated to the Agent and all other powers not specifically reserved to the Lenders, together with such powers as are reasonably incident thereto, provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Agent.

§14.3 No Liability. Neither the Agent nor any of its shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent, or employee thereof, shall be liable to the Lenders for (a) any waiver, consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that the Agent or such other Person, as the case may be, shall be liable for losses due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods or (b) any action taken or not taken by Agent with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders as may be required hereunder. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to the Loan Documents and describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.

§14.4 No Representations. The Agent shall not be responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes, any of the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Notes, or for the value of any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or representations made herein, or any agreement, instrument or certificate delivered in connection therewith or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or be bound to ascertain or

inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or in any of the other Loan Documents. The Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by the Borrower or any holder of any of the Notes shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete. The Agent has not made nor does it now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any liability to the Lenders, with respect to the creditworthiness or financial condition of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or the value of the Collateral or any other assets of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, based upon such information and documents as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Agent’s Special Counsel has only represented Agent and KeyBank in connection with the Loan Documents and the only attorney client relationship or duty of care is between Agent’s Special Counsel and Agent or KeyBank. Each Lender has been independently represented by separate counsel on all matters regarding the Loan Documents and the granting and perfecting of liens in the Collateral.

§14.5 Payments.

(a) A payment by the Borrower to the Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for the account of any Lender shall constitute a payment to such Lender. The Agent agrees to distribute to each Lender not later than one Business Day after the Agent’s receipt of good funds, determined in accordance with the Agent’s customary practices, such Lender’s pro rata share of payments received by the Agent for the account of the Lenders except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents. In the event that the Agent fails to distribute such amounts within one Business Day as provided above, the Agent shall pay interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect.

(b) If in the reasonable opinion of the Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making such distribution until its right to make such distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.

§14.6 Holders of Notes. Subject to the terms of §18, the Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or transferee.

§14.7 Indemnity. The Lenders ratably agree hereby to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs, expenses (including any expenses for which the Agent has not been reimbursed by the Borrower as required by §15 and without limiting the Borrower’s obligation to do so), and liabilities of every nature and character arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or the Agent’s actions taken hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods. The agreements in this §14.7 shall survive the payment of all amounts payable under the Loan Documents.

§14.8 Agent as Lender. In its individual capacity, KeyBank shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Notes as it would have were it not also the Agent.

§14.9 Resignation. The Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. The Required Lenders may remove the Agent from its capacity as Agent in the event of the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any such resignation or removal may at Agent’s option also constitute Agent’s resignation as Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender. Upon any such resignation, or removal, the Required Lenders, subject to the terms of §18.1, shall have the right to appoint as a successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, (i) any Lender or (ii) any bank whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than “A” or its equivalent by Moody’s or not less than “A” or its equivalent by S&P and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000. Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. If no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required Lender’s removal of the Agent, then the retiring or removed Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be (ii) any Lender or (ii) any financial institution whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than “A2” or its equivalent by Moody’s or not less than “A” or its equivalent by S&P and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, hereunder by a successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, such successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, and the retiring or removed Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder as Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender. If the resigning or removed Agent shall also resign as the Issuing Lender, such successor Agent shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession

100

or shall make other arrangements satisfactory to the current Issuing Lender, in either case, to assume effectively the obligations of the current Agent with respect to such Letters of Credit. Upon any change in the Agent under this Agreement, the resigning or removed Agent shall execute such assignments of and amendments to the Loan Documents as may be necessary to substitute the successor Agent for the resigning or removed Agent.

§14.10 Duties in the Case of Enforcement. In case one or more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, the Agent may and, if (a) so requested by the Required Lenders and (b) the Lenders have provided to the Agent such additional indemnities and assurances in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages against expenses and liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, shall proceed to exercise all or any legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Agent reasonably determines payment is in the best interest of all the Lenders, Agent may without the approval of the Lenders pay taxes and insurance premiums and spend money for maintenance, repairs or other expenses which may be necessary to be incurred, and Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Lenders of such action. Each Lender shall, within thirty (30) days of request therefor, pay to the Agent its Commitment Percentage of the reasonable costs incurred by the Agent in taking any such actions hereunder to the extent that such costs shall not be promptly reimbursed to the Agent by the Borrower or out of the Collateral within such period with respect to the Collateral Properties. The Required Lenders may direct the Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such exercise, the Lenders hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Agent harmless in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods, provided that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Agent reasonably believes the Agent’s compliance with such direction to be unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction or commercially unreasonable under the UCC as enacted in any applicable jurisdiction.

§14.11 Bankruptcy. In the event a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding is commenced by or against any Loan Party with respect to the Obligations, the Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to file and pursue a joint proof claim on behalf of all Lenders. Any votes with respect to such claims or otherwise with respect to such proceedings shall be subject to the vote of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders as required by this Agreement. Each Lender irrevocably waives its right to file or pursue a separate proof of claim in any such proceedings unless Agent fails to file such claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the Lenders requesting that Agent file such proof of claim.

§14.12 Request for Agent Action. Agent and the Lenders acknowledge that in the ordinary course of business of the Loan Parties, (a) the Loan Parties will enter into leases or rental agreements covering Collateral Properties that may require the execution of a Subordination, Attornment and

101

Non-Disturbance Agreement in favor of the tenant thereunder, (b) a Collateral Property may be subject to a Taking, (c) a Subsidiary Guarantor may desire to enter into easements or other agreements affecting the Collateral Properties, or take other actions or enter into other agreements in the ordinary course of business which similarly require the consent, approval or agreement of the Agent. In connection with the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Agent to (w) execute and deliver to the Borrower Subordination, Attornment and Non-Disturbance Agreements with any tenant under a Lease upon such terms as Agent in its good faith judgment determines are appropriate (Agent in the exercise of its good faith judgment may agree to allow some or all of the casualty, condemnation, restoration or other provisions of the applicable Lease to control over the applicable provisions of the Loan Documents), (x) execute releases of liens in connection with any Taking, (y) execute consents or subordinations in form and substance satisfactory to Agent in connection with any easements or agreements affecting the Collateral Property, or (z) execute consents, approvals, or other agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent in connection with such other actions or agreements as may be necessary in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business.

§14.13 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by an Authorized Officer. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

§14.14 Approvals. If consent is required for some action under this Agreement, or except as otherwise provided herein an approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders is required or permitted under this Agreement, each Lender agrees to give the Agent, within ten (10) days of receipt of the request for action together with all reasonably requested information related thereto (or such lesser period of time required by the terms of the Loan Documents), notice in writing of approval or disapproval (collectively “Directions”) in respect of any action requested or proposed in writing pursuant to the terms hereof. To the extent that any Lender does not approve any recommendation of Agent, such Lender shall in such notice to Agent describe the actions that would be acceptable to such Lender. If consent is required for the requested action, any Lender’s failure to respond to a request for Directions within the required time period shall be deemed to constitute a Direction to take such requested action. In the event that any recommendation is not approved by the requisite number of Lenders and a subsequent approval on the same subject matter is requested by Agent, then for the purposes of this paragraph each Lender shall be required to respond to a request for Directions within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such request. Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to assume that any officer of the other Lenders delivering any

102

notice, consent, certificate or other writing is authorized to give such notice, consent, certificate or other writing unless Agent and such other Lenders have otherwise been notified in writing.

§14.15 Borrower Not Beneficiary. Except for the provisions of §14.9 relating to the appointment of a successor Agent, the provisions of this §14 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, may not be enforced by the Borrower, and except for the provisions of §14.9, may be modified or waived without the approval or consent of the Borrower.

§14.16 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements:

(i) That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in §27.

(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to §13), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender or Swing Loan Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Agent or requested by the Issuing Lender or Swing Loan Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or Swing Loan Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Lender or Swing Loan Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or non-defaulting Lenders have been paid in full all amounts then due, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Letter of Credit Liabilities in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or Letter of Credit Liabilities were made at a time when the conditions set forth in §11 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Letter of Credit Liabilities owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Letter of Credit Liabilities owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to

103

a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this §14.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any facility unused fee pursuant to §2.3 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in §2.10(e).

(iv) During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans pursuant to §2.5 and/or §2.10, the “Commitment Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding of the Loans of and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by that Lender. Subject to §34, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) During any period that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may, by giving written notice thereof to the Agent, such Defaulting Lender, and the other Lenders, demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitment to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of §18.1. No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee. In addition, any Lender who is not a Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be obligated, in its sole discretion, to acquire the face amount of all or a portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment via an assignment subject to and in accordance with the provisions of §18.1. No such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient with any applicable amounts held pursuant to the immediately preceding subsection (f), upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) such Defaulting Lender’s full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become

104

effective under any Legal Requirement without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(b) Within five (5) Business Days of demand by the Issuing Lender from time to time, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Lender cash collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure with respect to the Issuing Lender (after giving effect to §2.10(a) and §14.16(a)(ii) on terms satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its good faith determination (and such cash collateral shall be in Dollars). Any such cash collateral shall be deposited in a cash collateral account as collateral (solely for the benefit of the Issuing Lender) for the payment and performance of each Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages of outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities. Moneys in such cash collateral account deposited pursuant to this section shall be applied by the Agent to reimburse the Issuing Lender immediately for each Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages of any funding obligation with respect to a Letter of Credit which has not otherwise been reimbursed by the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender.

(c) If a Lender is a Defaulting Lender because it has failed to make timely payment to the Agent of any amount required to be paid to the Agent hereunder (without giving effect to any notice or cure periods), in addition to other rights and remedies which the Agent or the Borrower may have under the immediately preceding provisions or otherwise, the Agent shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from the date on which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made at the Federal Funds Effective Rate, (ii) to withhold or setoff and to apply in satisfaction of the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (iii) to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. Any amounts received by the Agent in respect of a Defaulting Lender’s Loans shall be applied as set forth in §14.16(a)(ii).

(d) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Agent, Swing Loan Lender and the Issuing Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to §14.16(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

105

§14.17 Reliance on Hedge Provider. For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with §12.5, the Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each, a “Representative”) or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the holder of the Hedge Obligations for a determination (which each holder of the Hedge Obligations agrees (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Agent) of the outstanding Hedge Obligations owed to the holder thereof. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from such holder) to the contrary, the Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Hedge Obligations are outstanding.

§15. EXPENSES.

Upon execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and all other Loan Documents executed by the Lenders and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, (ii) the assigning Lender shall, upon payment to the Agent of the registration fee referred to in §18.2, be released from its obligations under this Agreement arising after the effective date of such assignment with respect to the assigned portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iii) the Agent may unilaterally amend Schedule 1.1 to reflect such assignment. In connection with each assignment, the assignee shall represent and warrant to the Agent, the assignor and each other Lender as to whether such assignee is controlling, controlled by, under common control with or is not otherwise free from influence or control by, the Borrower or any Guarantor.

The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and the Lenders at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon each such recordation, the assigning Lender agrees to pay to the Agent a registration fee in the sum of $3,500.

§18.3 New Notes. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement executed by the parties to such assignment, together with each Note subject to such assignment, the Agent shall record the information contained therein in the Register. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice of such assignment from Agent, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Agent, in exchange for each surrendered Note, a new Note (if requested by the subject Lender) to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the amount assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and, if the assigning Lender has retained some portion of its obligations hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the amount retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes, shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Notes. The surrendered Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower.

§18.4 Participations. Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (a) any such sale or participation shall not affect the rights and duties of the selling Lender hereunder to the Borrower, (b) such participation shall not entitle such participant to any rights or privileges under this Agreement or any Loan Documents, including without limitation, the right to approve waivers, amendments or modifications, (c) such participant shall have no direct rights against the Borrower or the Guarantors except the rights granted to the Lenders pursuant to §13, (d) such sale is effected in accordance with all applicable laws, and (e) such participant shall not be a Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by the Borrower or any Guarantor. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that, except as set forth below, no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person, except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or except, upon request of Borrower, the Lender shall provide to Borrower the identity of such participant and the amount of its participation. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for

109

all purposes of this Credit Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

The Borrower agrees that in addition to disclosures made in accordance with standard banking practices any Lender may disclose information obtained by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement to assignees or participants and potential assignees or participants hereunder. Each Lender agrees for itself that it shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with its customary procedures to hold confidential all non-public information obtained from the Loan Parties that has been identified in writing as confidential by any of them, and shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with its customary procedures to not disclose such information to any other Person, it being understood and agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender may make (a) disclosures to its participants (provided such Persons are advised of the provisions of this §18.7 and agrees to be bound thereby), (b) disclosures to its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, accountants, appraisers, legal counsel and other professional advisors of such Lender (provided that such Persons who are not employees of such Lender are advised of the provision of this §18.7 and agrees to be bound thereby), (c) disclosures customarily provided or reasonably required by any potential or actual bona fide assignee, transferee or participant or their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, accountants, appraisers, legal counsel and other professional advisors in connection with a potential or actual assignment or transfer by such Lender of any Loans or any participations therein (provided such Persons are advised of the provisions of this §18.7 and agrees to be bound thereby), (d) disclosures to bank regulatory authorities or self-regulatory bodies with jurisdiction over such Lender, or (e) disclosures required or requested by any other governmental authority or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process; provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender shall notify Borrower of any request by any governmental authority or representative thereof prior to disclosure (other than any such request in connection with any examination of such Lender by such government authority) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information. In addition, each Lender may make disclosure of such information to any contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisors (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisors agree to be bound by

110

the provisions of this §18.7 and agrees to be bound thereby). Non-public information shall not include any information which is or subsequently becomes publicly available other than as a result of a disclosure of such information by a Lender, or prior to the delivery to such Lender is within the possession of such Lender if such information is not known by such Lender to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with or other obligations of secrecy to the Borrower, or is disclosed with the prior approval of Borrower. Nothing herein shall prohibit the disclosure of non-public information to the extent necessary to enforce the Loan Documents.

Rejection or other refusal to accept or the inability to deliver because of changed address for which no notice was given shall be deemed to be receipt of the Notice sent.

§36.4 Subordination. So long as the Loans are outstanding, each of the Loan Parties hereby expressly defers and agrees (a) not to assert any right of contribution from or indemnity against the other, whether at law or in equity, arising from any payments made by such Person pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and (b) not to proceed against the other for reimbursement of any such payments. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Loan Parties expressly defers and agrees not to assert or take advantage of (i) any rights of subrogation to the Lenders or Agent against the other of the Loan Parties, (ii) any rights to enforce any remedy which the Lenders or Agent may have against the other of the Loan Parties and any rights to participate in any Collateral or any other assets of the other Loan Parties. In addition to and without in any way limiting the foregoing, each of the Loan Parties hereby subordinates any and all indebtedness it may now or hereafter owe to such other Loan Parties to all indebtedness of the Loan Parties to the Lenders and Agent, and agrees with the Lenders and Agent that no Loan Party shall claim any offset or other reduction of such Loan Party’s obligations hereunder because of any such indebtedness and shall not take any action to obtain any of the Collateral or any other assets of the other Loan Parties so long as the Loans are outstanding.

§36.5 Waiver of Rights Under Anti-Deficiency Rules. Without limiting any other provision of this §36, each Loan Party understands and acknowledges that, if the Agent forecloses judicially or nonjudicially against any real property Collateral for the Obligations, such foreclosure could impair or destroy any right or ability that such Loan Party may have to seek reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification for any amounts paid by such Loan Party under this Agreement. Each Loan Party further understands and acknowledges that in the absence of this waiver such potential impairment or destruction of such Loan Party’s rights, if any, may entitle such Loan Party to assert a defense to this Agreement based on California Code of Civil Procedure §580d as interpreted in Union Bank v. Gradsky, (1968) 265 CA 2d 40, 71 CR 64, on the grounds, among others, that the Agent or the Lenders should be estopped from pursuing such Loan Party because their election to foreclose may have impaired or destroyed such subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification rights of such Loan Party. By execution of this Agreement, each Loan Party intentionally, freely, irrevocably, and unconditionally: (i) waives and relinquishes that defense and agrees that such Loan Party will be liable under this Agreement even though the Agent has foreclosed judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property Collateral for the Obligations; (ii) agrees that such Loan Party will not assert that defense in any action or proceeding which the Agent or the Lenders may bring to enforce this Agreement; and (iii) acknowledges and agrees that until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, the rights and defenses waived by such Loan Party in this Agreement include any right or defense that such Loan Party may have or be entitled to assert based on or arising out of California Civil Code §2848, to the extent now or hereafter applicable.

§36.6 Further Waivers. Each Loan Party intentionally, freely, irrevocably and unconditionally waives and relinquishes all rights which may be available to it under any provision of California law or under any California judicial decision, including, without limitation, Section 580a and 726(b) of the California Code of Civil Procedure, to limit the amount of any deficiency

120

judgment or other judgment which may be obtained against such Loan Party under this Agreement to not more than the amount by which the unpaid Obligations exceeds the fair market value or fair value of any real or personal property of such Loan Party securing the Obligations, including, without limitation, all rights to an appraisement of, judicial or other hearing on, or other determination of the value of said property. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that, as a result of the foregoing waiver, the Agent or the Lenders may recover from such Loan Party an amount which, when combined with the value of any real or personal property foreclosed upon by the Agent (or the proceeds of the sale of which have been received by the Agent and the Lenders) and any sums collected by the Agent and the Lenders from any other Borrower, the other guarantors or other Persons, might temporarily exceed the amount of the Obligations.

§37. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF BENEFITS; EFFECT OF AVOIDANCE PROVISIONS.

(a) Without limiting any other provision of §36, each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it has received, or will receive, significant financial and other benefits, either directly or indirectly, from the proceeds of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; that the benefits received by such Subsidiary Guarantor are reasonably equivalent consideration for such Subsidiary Guarantor’s execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party; and that such benefits include, without limitation, the access to capital afforded to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement from which the activities of such Subsidiary Guarantor will be supported, the refinancing of certain existing indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor secured by such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Collateral Property from the proceeds of the Loans, and the ability to refinance that indebtedness at a lower interest rate and otherwise on more favorable terms than would be available to it if the Collateral Property owned by such Subsidiary Guarantor were being financed on a stand-alone basis and not as part of a pool of assets comprising the security for the Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor is executing this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in consideration of those benefits received by it and each Subsidiary Guarantor desires to enter into an allocation and contribution agreement with each other Subsidiary Guarantor as set forth in this §37 and agrees to subordinate and subrogate any rights or claims it may have against other Subsidiary Guarantors as and to the extent set forth in §36.

(b) Following an Event of Default, in the event any one or more Subsidiary Guarantors (any such Subsidiary Guarantor, a “Funding Guarantor”) is deemed to have paid an amount in excess of the principal amount attributable to it (such principal amount, the “Allocable Principal Balance”) (any deemed payment in excess of the applicable Allocable Principal Balance, a “Contribution”) as a result of (a) such Funding Guarantor’s payment of and/or performance on the Obligations and/or (b) Agent’s and/or any Lender’s realization on the Collateral owned by such Funding Guarantor (whether by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, private sale or other means), then after payment in full of the Loans and the satisfaction of all of Subsidiary Guarantors’ other obligations under the Loan Documents, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to contribution from each benefited Subsidiary Guarantor for the amount of the Contribution so benefited (any such contribution, a “Reimbursement Contribution”), up to such benefited Subsidiary Guarantor’s then current Allocable Principal Balance. Any Reimbursement Contributions required to be made hereunder shall, subject to §36, be made within ten (10) days after demand therefor.

121

(c) If a Subsidiary Guarantor (a “Defaulting Guarantor”) shall have failed to make a Reimbursement Contribution as hereinabove provided, after the later to occur of (a) payment of the Loan in full and the satisfaction of all of all Subsidiary Guarantors’ other obligations to Lenders or (b) the date which is 366 days after the payment in full of the Loans, the Funding Guarantor to whom such Reimbursement Contribution is owed shall be subrogated to the rights of Lenders against such Defaulting Guarantor, including the right to receive a portion of such Defaulting Guarantor’s Collateral in an amount equal to the Reimbursement Contribution payment required hereunder that such Defaulting Guarantor failed to make; provided, however, if Agent returns any payments in connection with a bankruptcy of a Subsidiary Guarantor, all other Subsidiary Guarantors shall jointly and severally pay to Agent and Lenders all such amounts returned, together with interest at the Default Rate accruing from and after the date on which such amounts were returned.

(d) In the event that at any time there exists more than one Funding Guarantor with respect to any Contribution (in any such case, the “Applicable Contribution”), then Reimbursement Contributions from Defaulting Guarantor pursuant hereto shall be equitably allocated among such Funding Guarantor. In the event that at any time any Subsidiary Guarantor pays an amount hereunder in excess of the amount calculated pursuant to this paragraph, that Subsidiary Guarantor shall be deemed to be a Funding Guarantor to the extent of such excess and shall be entitled to a Reimbursement Contribution from the other Loan Parties in accordance with the provisions of this §37.

(e) It is the intent of each Subsidiary Guarantor, the Agent and the Lenders that in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar debtor relief laws, such Subsidiary Guarantor’s maximum obligation hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Subsidiary Guarantor in such proceeding as a result of applicable Laws, including, without limitation, (i) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such proceeding, whether by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The Laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents) shall be determined in any such proceeding are referred to herein as “Avoidance Provisions”. Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Obligations for which such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to the greater of (A) the amount which, as of the time any of the Obligations are deemed to have been incurred by such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents), to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions or (B) the amount which, as of the time demand is made hereunder upon such Subsidiary Guarantor for payment on account of the Obligations, would not cause the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents), to be subject to

122

avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions. The provisions of this §37(e) are intended solely to preserve the rights of the Agent and the Lenders hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and no Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section as against the Agent and the Lenders that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.
