ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
On October 1, 2008, Mission West Properties, Inc. and its four operating
partnerships (the "Company") entered into a fixed rate term agreement and
related contracts and instruments for a secured mortgage loan totaling $115
million from Hartford Life Insurance Company, Hartford Life and Accident
Insurance Company and Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company (the "Hartford
Loan"). The Hartford Loan bears a fixed interest rate of 6.21%, with a 20 year
amortization, and matures October 1, 2018, at which time any outstanding
principal and interest will be due. Pursuant to the loan agreement, monthly
principal and interest installment payments of approximately $0.84 million are
due on the first day of each month. The Hartford Loan is secured by twenty
properties consisting of approximately 1.6 million rentable square feet. The
Company has the option to prepay the Hartford Loan, subject to certain yield
maintenance provisions, though generally no prepayment is permitted during the
first 24 months of the loan term.
In general, the properties securing the Hartford Loan cannot be sold or
otherwise transferred without the lender's consent. The loan balance may be
accelerated in full in the event of a prohibited sale or transfer. The Hartford
Loan is nonrecourse to the operating partnerships. Under the terms of a carveout
indemnity agreement and an environmental indemnity agreement, the Company may be
liable for the unpaid balance of the Hartford Loan and other obligations arising
under the circumstances provided in such agreements.
The Company paid approximately $1.0 million in loan fees and financing
costs, which will be amortized over the ten year loan period. The proceeds were
used primarily to repay the remaining balance of an existing mortgage loan with
Prudential Mortgage Capital Company and to provide other working capital needs.
ITEM 2.03. CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT.

Default, without notice or opportunity to cure. If the amounts necessary to
prepay the Loan in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof are received
by Lender after 2:00 p.m. (Hartford, Connecticut time), such prepayment shall be
deemed to have been made on the next occurring Business Day and Lender shall be

made by Borrower or by any Person on behalf of Borrower or otherwise, including
any tender of payment at any time prior to or at foreclosure sale or proceedings
or during any redemption period following foreclosure, or during any federal or
state bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, shall constitute an evasion of the
restrictions on prepayment set forth herein, and shall be deemed a voluntary
prepayment prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date requiring payment of the
Applicable Prepayment Fee, and Lender shall not be required to accept such
prepayment if it does not include payment of the Applicable Prepayment Fee.
(f) If any actual or deemed prepayment is tendered or deemed tendered
during the Lockout Period (other than a prepayment tendered or deemed tendered
pursuant to Sections 3.2(i), 3.3, 7.5, 7.15 or 9.3), Borrower shall be obligated
to pay Lender, and the Obligations shall include, a prepayment fee (the "Lockout
Prepayment Fee") calculated by Lender in its discretion (which may or may not
equal the Standard Yield Maintenance otherwise due in connection with any such
prepayment but for the operation of the Lockout Period), and Lender shall not be
required to accept such payment or credit any deemed payment if it does not
include payment of the Lockout Prepayment Fee as calculated by Lender. Any
prepayment tendered during the Lockout Period in connection with a Partial
Release pursuant to Section 7.15 must include a prepayment fee equal to Lockout
Yield Maintenance.
(g) Lender's acceptance of a prepayment without the Applicable Prepayment
Fee shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver by Lender of its
right to require payment of the Applicable Prepayment Fee in accordance with the
terms hereof or a waiver of any rights and remedies Lender may have under the
Loan Documents, at law or in equity on account of Borrower's failure to timely
pay the Applicable Prepayment Fee as and when required hereunder.
(h) To the extent permitted by law, Lender may bid at any foreclosure sale,
as part of the Obligations, the amount of the Applicable Prepayment Fee
calculated as if prepayment of the Loan occurs on the date of such foreclosure
sale. To the extent the amount of the Obligations must be determined as of a
date certain pursuant to a judicial foreclosure, the Loan will be deemed prepaid
as of the date judgment enters and the Applicable Prepayment Fee due and payable
hereunder (if any) will be calculated as if prepayment of the Obligations
occurred on the date of said judgment.
(i) Borrower and Lender have negotiated the Loan upon the understanding
that if the Loan is paid or prepaid prior to July 1, 2018 for any reason, except
as expressly provided in this Section 2.4 or as otherwise provided in Sections
3.2(i), 3.3, 7.5, 7.15 or 9.3, Lender shall receive the Applicable Prepayment
Fee as compensation for: (i) the cost of reinvesting the prepayment proceeds and
the loss of the contracted rate of return on the Loan; and (ii) the privilege of
early payment of the Loan, which Borrower has expressly bargained for and which
privilege Lender would not have granted to Borrower without Borrower's
obligation to pay the Applicable Prepayment Fee. Borrower agrees that the
Applicable Prepayment Fee provided for herein is reasonable and that Lender
shall not be obligated, as a condition subsequent to its receipt of the
Applicable Prepayment Fee, to actually reinvest all or any part of the amount
prepaid in any United States Treasury instruments or obligations or otherwise.

ARTICLE 3.
INSURANCE, CONDEMNATION, AND IMPOUNDS
SECTION 3.1. INSURANCE.
(a) INSURANCE COVERAGE. Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be
maintained, insurance for each Individual Borrower, Lender, each Property and
the other Collateral (collectively, the "Insurance") providing at a minimum the
following:
(i) Insurance with respect to the Improvements and Personal Property
relating to each Property against any peril currently included within the
classification "All Risk" or "Special Perils," in each case (1) in an
amount equal to 100% of the "Full Replacement Cost," which for purposes of
this Agreement shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of
excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) with losses
adjusted on a replacement cost basis; (2) containing an agreed amount
endorsement (unless waived by Lender in its reasonable discretion) with
respect to the Improvements and Personal Property relating to such Property
waiving all co-insurance provisions; (3) providing for no deductible in
excess of $25,000 and no self-retention (unless disclosed to and approved
by Lender); (4) with an "Ordinance or Law Coverage" or "Enforcement"
endorsement (including demolition costs); and (5) with coverage for "mold"
and related damage with reasonable and customary limits (a sublimit of
$1,000,000 for "mold" coverage being deemed "reasonable"). The Full
Replacement Cost of each Property shall be evaluated from time to time at
the request of Lender (but not more frequently than once in any twelve (12)
calendar months, unless an Event of Default exists, in which case the Full
Replacement Cost may be evaluated from time to time as Lender in its
discretion may deem necessary) by an appraiser or contractor designated and
paid by Borrower and approved by Lender, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld (unless an Event of Default exists, in which case the
appraiser or contractor shall be designated by Lender and paid by
Borrower). No omission on the part of Lender to request any such
ascertainment of the Full Replacement Cost for any Property shall relieve
Borrower of any of its obligations under this Subsection 3.1(a)(i);
(ii) Commercial general liability insurance against all claims for
personal injury or property damage occurring upon, in or about each
Property, including "Dram Shop" or other liquor liability coverage if
alcoholic beverages are sold from or may be consumed at any Property and
garage keepers' liability coverage (if applicable), such insurance (1) to
be on the so-called "occurrence" form with a general aggregate limit of not
less than $2,000,000.00 and a per occurrence limit of not less than
$1,000,000.00; (2) to be continued at not less than the aforesaid limit
until required to be increased by Lender in writing by reason of changed
economic conditions making such protection inadequate (in the reasonable
estimation of Lender); and (3) to cover at least the following hazards: (A)
premises and operations (including Fire Damage Legal Liability); (B)
products and completed operations on an "if any" basis; (C) independent
contractors; (D) blanket contractual liability for advertising and all
written and oral contracts to the extent of tort liability; and (E)
contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in the Loan
Documents to the extent the same is available;
(iii) Business interruption/loss of rents insurance (1) with loss
payable to Lender; (2) covering "All Risks" or "Special Perils" as required
to be covered by the insurance provided for in Subsection 3.1(a)(i) and
(ii); (3) in an amount equal to 100% of the projected gross income from
each Property (on an actual loss sustained basis) for a period of not less
than twelve (12) months following the date of loss (the amount of such
coverage shall be determined prior to the Funding Date and at least once
each year thereafter based on the greater of: (x) reasonable estimate by
Borrower Parties of the gross income from each Property for the succeeding
twelve (12) month period, and (y) the highest gross income received during
the term of the Note for any consecutive twelve (12) month period prior to
the date the amount of such insurance is being determined); (4) with a
deductible of not greater than an amount equal to 48 hours loss; and (5)
containing an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that
after the physical loss to the affected Improvements has been repaired, the
continued loss of income will be insured until the earlier of such income
returning to the same level it was at prior to the loss or the expiration
of one
15
hundred eighty (180) days from the date that normal operations are resumed
at the affected Property (notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior
to the end of such period). All insurance proceeds payable to Lender
pursuant to this Subsection 3.1(a)(iii) shall be held by Lender and shall
be applied to the Obligations from time to time due and payable under the
Note and this Agreement; provided, however, that so long as no Event of
Default exists, Lender shall disburse to the applicable Individual
Borrower, on a monthly basis (consistent with an annual operating budget
delivered to Lender) funds representing business interruption proceeds (to
the extent actually received by Lender) for payment of Operating Expenses
and Debt Service upon receipt by Lender of a written request for
disbursement from the applicable Individual Borrower, summarizing the
Operating Expenses and/or Debt Service to be paid with the subject
disbursement; provided, further, that nothing herein contained shall be
deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligation to pay the Obligations on the
respective dates of payment provided for in the Note and this Agreement
except to the extent such amounts are actually paid to and retained by
Lender out of the proceeds of such business interruption insurance;
(iv) At all times during which structural construction, repairs or
alterations are being made with respect to any Property, applicable
contractors shall provide: (1) owner's and contractor's protective
liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or
provisions of the commercial general liability insurance policy referenced
in Subsection 3.1(a)(ii); and (2) the insurance provided for in Subsections
3.1(a)(i) and (iii), written in a so-called "builder's risk completed value
form" (A) on a non-reporting basis, (B) against "All Risks" or "Special
Perils" as required pursuant to Subsection 3.1(a)(i), (C) including
permission to occupy such Property, and (D) with an agreed amount
endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;
(v) To the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements, workers'
compensation, subject to the statutory limits of the State, and employer's
liability insurance with a limit of at least $1,000,000.00 per accident and
per disease per employee, and $1,000,000.00 for disease aggregate in
respect of any work or operations on or about each Property, or in
connection with each Property or its operation (if applicable);
(vi) Comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance in customary and
reasonable amounts (to the extent Lender, in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment, deems such coverage reasonably necessary based on the equipment
at a particular Property);
(vii) If any portion of any Property is at any time located in an area
identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development or any
successor thereto as an area having special flood hazards pursuant to the
National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of
1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as each may be
amended, or any successor or comparable law (the "Flood Insurance Acts"),
flood hazard insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) 100% of the
"Full Replacement Cost," determined in accordance with the provisions of
Subsection 3.1(a)(i), and (2) the maximum limit of coverage available for
such Property under the Flood Insurance Acts;
(viii) Umbrella liability insurance in an aggregate amount of not less
than $25,000,000.00 per occurrence, and with deductibles (including any
self insurance or retention) and on terms consistent with the commercial
general liability insurance policy required under Subsection 3.1(a)(ii);
and
(ix) Such other insurance (other than terrorism or earthquake
insurance) and in such amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably
require against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly
insured against for properties similar to each Property located in or
around the region in which the Portfolio is located.
(b) POLICIES. All insurance provided for in Subsection 3.1(a) shall be
obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the "Policies" and
individually, a "Policy"), in such forms and, from time to time after the
Funding Date, in such amounts as may be satisfactory to Lender (in the exercise
of its reasonable judgment), issued by financially sound and responsible
insurance companies authorized and admitted to do business in the State, having
a general policy rating of "A" or better and a financial class of "X" or better,
each as determined by AM Best Company, Inc., and otherwise acceptable to Lender
in the exercise of its reasonable judgment (each such insurer satisfying the
foregoing is referred to below as a "Qualified Insurer"). Not less than ten (10)
days
16
prior to the expiration dates of the Policies in force as of the Funding
Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender certificates (in ACORD format 25 and
ACORD format 28 (2003/10 form)) evidencing renewal Policies complying with
the requirements of this Section 3.1, such certificates to be in format
reasonably required by Lender and to be marked "premium paid" (or Borrower
shall provide other evidence satisfactory to Lender (in its reasonable
judgment) of the payment in full of all premiums due under such Policies
(the "Insurance Premiums")).
(c) BLANKET POLICIES. Borrower shall not obtain (i) any blanket liability
or casualty Policy unless, in each case, such Policy is approved in advance by
Lender (Lender acknowledges its approval of the blanket policies in effect as of
the Funding Date, and Lender's approval of Borrower's blanket Policies following
the Funding Date will not be required so long as any replacement blanket Policy
is substantially similar to the blanket Policy approved by Lender on the Funding
Date, confirmed by the ACORD certificates described in Section 3.1(b)), or (ii)
without Lender's prior written consent (issued or withheld in Lender's
reasonable judgment), separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in
the event of loss with that required in Subsection 3.1(a). If a Borrower Party
obtains separate insurance or a blanket Policy, Borrower shall notify Lender of
the same and shall cause certificates with respect to each Policy to be
delivered to Lender as required in Subsection 3.1(b).
(d) LENDER AS INSURED. All Policies, except for the Policies referenced in
Subsection 3.1(a)(v), shall name the applicable Individual Borrower as the named
insured and Lender as an additional insured and loss payee, as their respective
interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery,
builder's risk, and flood insurance, shall contain a so-called "New York
standard non-contributing mortgagee" clause in favor of Lender providing that
any loss thereunder covered by such Policy shall be payable to Lender.
(e) POLICY ENDORSEMENTS. All Policies shall contain clauses or endorsements
to the effect that:
(i) No act or negligence of any Borrower Party, of anyone acting for a
Borrower Party, or of any Tenant, or failure to comply with the provisions
of any Policy that might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance
or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability
of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;
(ii) No Policy may be materially changed (other than to increase the
coverage provided thereby) or cancelled without at least thirty (30) days
prior written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an
insured or additional insured;
(iii) The issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the
Policy has not been thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and
(iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums or
assessments thereon, except that Lender may, but shall have no obligation
to, pay any Insurance Premiums to continue any Policy in full force and
effect in the event Borrower fails to do so (any such amounts so paid by
Lender shall be paid by Borrower to Lender within the Demand Period, and
until paid shall constitute part of the Obligations, shall be secured by
the Loan Documents and shall bear interest at the Default Rate accruing
from the expiration of the Demand Period until Lender receives payment in
full of such amount).
(f) Intentionally Omitted.
(g) LENDER SELF-HELP. If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written
evidence that all Insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect,
Lender shall have the right, upon three (3) Business Days prior notice to
Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest
in the Portfolio, including obtaining such Insurance as Lender, in its
discretion, deems appropriate, and all expenses incurred by Lender in connection
with such action or in obtaining and maintaining such Insurance shall be paid by
Borrower to Lender before the expiration of the Demand Period, and until paid
shall constitute part of the Obligations, shall be secured by the Loan Documents
and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand
Period until Lender receives payment in full of such amount.
17
(h) VESTING IN LENDER. In the event of a foreclosure or other transfer of
title to any Property to Lender or a third party purchaser at foreclosure in
extinguishment in whole or in part of the Obligations, and to the extent
permitted under the Policies, all right, title and interest of Borrower Parties
in and to all proceeds payable pursuant to the Policies as of the effective date
of transfer of title (including proceeds payable under blanket policies) shall
thereupon vest exclusively in Lender or the purchaser at such foreclosure.
(i) SUBROGATION. All Insurance (as applicable) and all renewals thereof
shall contain, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, a standard
"Waiver of Subrogation" endorsement.
SECTION 3.2. USE AND APPLICATION OF INSURANCE PROCEEDS.
(a) RESTORATION. If any portion of any Property (or any material portion of
the other Collateral) shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by
fire or other casualty (a "Casualty"), Borrower shall give prompt written notice
of such damage to Lender. If Net Proceeds are made available to a Borrower Party
for Restoration as provided in Subsections 3.2(c) and 3.2(d), the applicable
Individual Borrower shall, in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.2,
promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the repair and
restoration of the affected Collateral as nearly as possible to the condition
the affected Collateral was in immediately prior to such Casualty (such repair
and restoration, collectively, a "Restoration") and shall pay all costs of such
Restoration (even if Net Proceeds are not sufficient to pay in the full the cost
of Restoration). Regardless of whether Net Proceeds are made available to any
Individual Borrower, Borrower shall, promptly following the occurrence of a
Casualty and diligently thereafter, undertake all actions necessary to keep the
affected Property safe, secure and free from reasonably foreseeable hazards and
otherwise in material compliance with applicable Legal Requirements.
Notwithstanding any Casualty, Borrower shall continue to pay the Obligations at
the time and in the manner provided for its payment in this Agreement.
(b) ADJUSTMENTS BY LENDER. Upon any Casualty covered by any Insurance, then
(i) if an Event of Default exists, Lender is hereby authorized, at its option
(exercisable in its discretion), to settle and adjust any claim without the
consent of Borrower Parties; or (ii) if the Casualty in question is a Major
Damage Event, Lender shall allow the applicable Individual Borrower up to one
hundred eighty (180) days following the occurrence of the Casualty to settle and
adjust such claim with the prior written consent of Lender (such consent not to
be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that if the applicable Individual
Borrower has failed to settle and adjust any claim associated with a Casualty
within one hundred eighty (180) days after the occurrence of such Major Damage
Event, Lender is hereby authorized, at its option (exercisable in its reasonable
discretion), to settle and adjust any claim with the prior written consent of
the applicable Individual Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld); provided, further, that in any case, Lender shall, and is hereby
authorized to, collect and hold (without interest) any and all such insurance
proceeds subject to the terms of this Section 3.2. If a Casualty does not
constitute a Major Damage Event, then the applicable Individual Borrower shall
diligently pursue settlement of all insurance claims, shall hold all Net
Proceeds associated with such non-Major Damage Event in trust to be applied
toward the costs associated with the restoration of the affected Property, and
shall promptly commence and diligently pursue to completion all restoration and
repair work reasonably necessary to return the affected Property to the
condition it was in immediately prior to the non-Major Damage Event. The
applicable Individual Borrower shall provide Lender with reasonable written
updates, at reasonable intervals, in connection with all restoration efforts
associated with non-Major Damage Events. The reasonable third party expenses
incurred by Lender in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall
be reimbursed by Borrower to Lender within the Demand Period and until paid
shall constitute part of the Obligations, shall be secured by the Loan Documents
and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from expiration of the Demand Period
until payment in full is received by Lender, or, to the extent sufficient
insurance proceeds are available, said expenses shall be deducted from said
proceeds by Lender prior to any other application thereof. Each Qualified
Insurer is hereby authorized and directed by Borrower to make payment for all
losses associated with a Major Damage Event to Lender alone, and not to Lender
and any Individual Borrower or any other Person jointly. Borrower agrees to
promptly execute and deliver to Lender all documents and promptly make all
deliveries reasonably requested by Lender in order to permit Lender to adjust
any such claim and to authorize and direct any insurer to pay insurance proceeds
relating to a Major Damage Event to Lender alone and not jointly to Lender and
any Individual Borrower or any other Person. "Net Proceeds" means the net amount
of all insurance proceeds received by Lender under the Policies described in
Subsections 3.1(a) as a result of a Casualty, after deduction of Lender's
reasonable third party costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys'
fees), if any, in collecting same.
18
(c) CONDITIONS TO DISBURSEMENTS FOR RESTORATION. The following provisions
shall apply in connection with any Restoration of a Major Damage Event:
(i) Lender shall make the Net Proceeds associated with a Major Damage
Event available to the applicable Individual Borrower for Restoration,
provided that each of the following conditions are satisfied (satisfaction
to be determined by Lender in the exercise of its reasonable judgment):
(A) As of the date of each distribution of Net Proceeds, no
monetary Potential Default (which solely for the purposes of this
provision means a failure to make a payment of a liquidated sum of
money on the due date thereof but for which the applicable grace
period has yet to expire) then exists and no Event of Default then
exists;
(B) Within ninety (90) days following the occurrence of the
Casualty, the applicable Individual Borrower shall prepare, or shall
cause to be prepared, all required Restoration Documents and
applications for the issuance of all permits required for the
Restoration, with copies thereof delivered to Lender;
(C) Lender and the Casualty Consultant shall have approved the
Restoration Documents in accordance with Subsection 3.2(e);
(D) As of the date of each distribution of Net Proceeds, Lender
shall be satisfied, in the exercise of its reasonable judgment, that
based upon a report issued by the Casualty Consultant and such other
factors as Lender reasonably deems relevant, the costs of Restoration
and ongoing Operating Expenses (including Debt Service) allocated to
the affected Property will be covered out of (1) undisbursed Net
Proceeds (including the proceeds of the coverage referred to in
Subsection 3.1(a)(iii)), (2) Rents that are and shall continue to be
generated by the affected Property despite the Casualty, and/or (3)
other funds of Borrower deposited with Lender pursuant to Subsection
3.2(g);
(E) Prior to the initial disbursement of Net Proceeds, Lender
shall be satisfied that, within six (6) months following completion of
the Restoration, the Net Operating Income associated with the affected
Property will be restored to a level sufficient to generate a Debt
Service Coverage Ratio (based on a fully amortizing 20-year schedule)
for such affected Property of at least 125%;
(F) Prior to the initial disbursement of Net Proceeds, Lender
shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before
the earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity
Date, (2) twelve (12) months after the occurrence of the Casualty, or
(3) such time as may be required under all Legal Requirements in order
to repair and restore the affected Collateral to the condition it was
in immediately prior to such Casualty;
(G) Prior to the initial disbursement of Net Proceeds, Borrower
shall execute and deliver to Lender a completion guaranty in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and its counsel, pursuant
to which Borrower shall guaranty to Lender the lien-free completion of
the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2;
(H) Prior to the initial disbursement of Net Proceeds, Lender
shall be satisfied that the affected Property and the use thereof
after the Restoration will be in compliance (in all material respects)
with and permitted under all Legal Requirements;
(I) Prior to the initial disbursement of Net Proceeds, Lender
shall be satisfied that the Restoration shall be undertaken and
completed such that no Lease (or combination of Leases), which are in
place at the affected Property as of the date of the Casualty and
which cover (singularly or in the aggregate) 25% or more of the gross
rentable area of the affected Property, can be terminated as a result
of the Casualty;
19
(J) Promptly following the issuance of all required permits and
the decision of Lender to make Net Proceeds available for Restoration
in accordance with this Subsection 3.2(c), the applicable Individual
Borrower shall commence the Restoration;
(K) As of the date of each distribution of Net Proceeds, Lender
shall be satisfied (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment) that
the applicable Individual Borrower is diligently pursuing the
Restoration to satisfactory completion; and
(L) As of the date of each distribution of Net Proceeds, Borrower
must be in compliance with the conditions specified in Subsections
3.2(d), (e) and (g) below.
(d) DISBURSEMENT PROCEDURES. The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender
(in a non-interest bearing account) and, unless and until disbursed to the
applicable Individual Borrower in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 3.2, shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.
Subject to satisfaction of the conditions of this Section 3.2, the Net
Proceeds designated for Restoration costs shall be disbursed by Lender to,
or as directed by, the applicable Individual Borrower from time to time
prior to or during the course of the Restoration, but not more than once
per 30-day period, upon receipt of (i) a disbursement request from the
applicable Borrower Party in form and content reasonably required by
Lender, (ii) an inspection report from the Casualty Consultant acceptable
to Lender (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment), (iii) evidence
reasonably satisfactory to Lender that all materials installed and work and
labor performed in connection with the related Restoration item have been
paid for in full (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of
the requested disbursement), including a certification from the applicable
Individual Borrower that there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders,
mechanic's or material supplier's liens or notices of intention to file
same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the
affected Property which have not either been fully bonded to the reasonable
satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or, in the alternative,
fully insured to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender by the Title
Company, and (iv) title insurance "date downs" and endorsements to the
Title Policy without exception as to mechanics' or material supplier's
liens, intervening choate or inchoate liens, judgments, survey matters, or
other material matters of record. Any Net Proceeds received by Lender and
held for application to Operating Expenses and Debt Service shall be
disbursed to the applicable Individual Borrower in accordance with
Subsection 3.1(a)(iii). All Net Proceeds disbursed to a Borrower for
Restoration shall be held in trust by the recipient and used for the sole
purpose of completion of the Restoration in accordance with the provisions
of this Section 3.2.
(e) RESTORATION DOCUMENTS. All plans and specifications and
construction agreements (collectively, "Restoration Documents") necessary
for the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and approval by Lender
and by a qualified independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the
"Casualty Consultant"), all such approvals not to be unreasonably withheld.
In the event Lender does not notify the applicable Individual Borrower of
the approval or disapproval by Lender and the Casualty Consultant of the
Restoration Documents within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a
complete set thereof by Lender and the Casualty Consultant, then Lender and
the Casualty Consultant shall be deemed to have approved the Restoration
Documents. Subject to all necessary approvals and consents (the consent of
Borrower Parties being deemed issued), Lender shall have the use of the
Restoration Documents and all permits, licenses and approvals required or
obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the general
contractor and other significant contractors engaged in the Restoration
shall be subject to prior review and approval by Lender and the Casualty
Consultant (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). All
reasonable third party costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection
with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration or for the
payment of Operating Expenses, including reasonable third party attorneys'
fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant's reasonable fees (which
in no event shall exceed then prevailing market rates), shall be deducted
from the Net Proceeds or if the Net Proceeds are not sufficient, paid by
Borrower to Lender within the Demand Period and until paid shall constitute
part of the Obligations, shall be secured by the Loan Documents and shall
bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand Period
until payment in full is received by Lender.
(f) AMOUNT OF DISBURSEMENTS. In no event shall Lender be obligated to
make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the
costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the
Restoration (including Lender's reasonable third party costs and expenses),
as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Restoration Retainage.
"Restoration Retainage" means an amount equal to the greater of (i) ten
percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of
the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, and (ii) the
amount actually held back by the applicable Individual Borrower from
contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers engaged in the
Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall not be released until the
Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been
substantially completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section
3.2 and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the
affected Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental
Authorities, and Lender receives evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender
that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in
full out of the Restoration Retainage, provided, however, that Lender will
release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being held with respect to
any contractor, subcontractor or material supplier engaged in the
Restoration as of the date upon which either (i) the Casualty Consultant
certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or material supplier
has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in
accordance with the provisions of that contractor's, subcontractor's or
material supplier's contract, or (ii) the applicable contractor,
subcontractor or material supplier delivers to Lender lien waivers and
evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor,
subcontractor or material supplier as may be reasonably requested by Lender
or by the Title Company. If required by Lender, the release of any such
portion of the Restoration Retainage shall be approved by the surety
company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with
respect to the contractor, subcontractor or material supplier.
20
(g) RESTORATION DEFICIENCY. If at any time the Net Proceeds or the
undisbursed balance thereof, together with Rents that will continue to be
generated by the affected Property despite the Casualty, shall not, in the
reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant,
be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs estimated by the
Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the
Restoration and ongoing Operating Expenses (including Debt Service)
associated with the affected Property, Borrower shall deposit the
deficiency (the "Net Proceeds Deficiency") with Lender before any further
disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made (but in all events Borrower
shall make such deposit within sixty (60) days following demand). The Net
Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall
be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration
and/or for ongoing Operating Expenses (including Debt Service) associated
with the affected Property on the same conditions applicable to the
disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed shall constitute
additional security for the Obligations.
(h) RELEASE OF REMAINING PROCEEDS. Provided (i) no monetary Potential
Default (which solely for the purpose of this provision means a failure to
make a payment of a liquidated sum of money on the due date thereof but for
which the applicable grace period has yet to expire) then exists and no
Event of Default then exists, (ii) Lender shall re-confirm that within six
(6) months following completion of the Restoration the Net Operating Income
for the affected Property will be restored to a level sufficient to
generate a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (based on a fully amortizing 20-year
schedule) for such affected Property of at least 125%, (iii) the Casualty
Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been substantially
completed in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2, and (iv) Lender
receives evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred
in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full (except to the
extent said costs shall be paid out of the final disbursement), Lender
shall promptly remit to the applicable Individual Borrower the excess, if
any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net
Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender.
(i) APPLICATION OF REMAINING PROCEEDS. If Lender makes a determination
(in the exercise of its reasonable judgment) pursuant to this Section 3.2
that one or more of the conditions to disbursement of Net Proceeds set
forth in Subsection 3.2(c)(i) has not or will not be satisfied, then all
Net Proceeds then held by Lender shall be retained and applied by Lender
toward the payment of the Obligations, whether or not then due and payable
in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its reasonable
discretion shall deem proper. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing as of the date Lender applies the Net Proceeds to the
Obligations, no Applicable Prepayment Fee shall be payable in connection
with any such prepayment. If an Event of Default exists while Lender is
holding Net Proceeds, Lender may at its option apply the Net Proceeds
toward the payment of the Obligations, whether or not then due and payable
in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall
deem proper (including toward payment of any Applicable Prepayment Fee
applicable to such prepayment). If Lender applies Net Proceeds to the
Obligations, the lien of the Loan Documents shall be reduced only by the
amount of Net Proceeds actually applied by Lender in reduction of the
Obligations, but if the Net Proceeds do not discharge the Allocated Loan
Amount relating only to the affected Property in full, then Lender may
elect to accelerate repayment of, or Borrower may elect to prepay, the
entire remaining outstanding balance of the Allocated Loan Amount relating
only to the affected Property, such prepayment to be made in either case
within one hundred twenty
21
(120) days following notice from the electing party to the other party (or
such longer period as may be reasonably necessary for Borrower to secure
replacement financing as long as Borrower Parties are diligently pursuing
said refinancing in good faith), without any Applicable Prepayment Fee due
thereon so long as no Event of Default exists as of either the date Lender
so accelerates or Borrower elects prepayment of said Allocated Loan Amount
and the date said Allocated Loan Amount is fully and finally repaid.
SECTION 3.3. CONDEMNATION AWARDS. Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of
the receipt by a Borrower Party of notice of the institution of any proceeding
for the condemnation or other taking of any Property or any portion thereof.
Lender may participate in any such proceeding relating to a Major Damage Event
and the applicable Individual Borrower shall deliver to Lender all instruments
necessary or required by Lender to permit such participation. Without Lender's
prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), no
Borrower Party, in connection with any Major Damage Event, shall agree to any
compensation or award and/or take any action or fail to take any action which
would cause the compensation to be determined. All awards and compensation for
the taking or purchase in lieu of condemnation of any Property or any part
thereof are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Lender for application to
the Obligations (except as expressly provided below). Borrower Parties authorize
Lender to collect and receive such awards and compensation, to give proper
receipts and acquittances therefor, and to apply the same toward the payment of
the Obligations in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its
reasonable discretion shall deem proper (and provided no Event of Default exists
as of the date Lender applies such condemnation proceeds to the Obligations, no
Applicable Prepayment Fee shall be payable in connection with any such
prepayment), notwithstanding that the Obligations may not then be due and
payable; provided, however, that if the condemnation in question does not
constitute a Major Damage Event and the applicable Individual Borrower requests
that such proceeds be used for non-structural site improvements (such as
landscape, driveway, walkway and parking area repairs) to the affected Property
which are required to be made as a result of such condemnation, Lender will
apply the award to such restoration in accordance with disbursement procedures
applicable to Net Proceeds. Borrower Parties, upon request by Lender, shall
execute all instruments reasonably requested by Lender to confirm the assignment
of the awards and compensation to Lender, free and clear of all Liens, charges
(except as expressly set forth above) or encumbrances. If Lender applies
condemnation proceeds to the Allocated Loan Amount relating only to the affected
Property, the lien of the Loan Documents shall be reduced only by the amount of
such proceeds actually applied by Lender in reduction of the Obligations, but if
such proceeds do not discharge the Obligations in full, then Lender may elect to
accelerate repayment of, or Borrower may elect to repay, the entire remaining
outstanding balance of the Allocated Loan Amount relating only to the affected
Property, such prepayment to be made in either case within one hundred twenty
(120) days following notice from the electing party to the other party (or such
longer period as may be reasonably necessary for Borrower Parties to secure
replacement financing as long as Borrower Parties are diligently pursuing said
refinancing in good faith), without any Applicable Prepayment Fee due thereon so
long as no Event of Default exists as of both the date Lender so accelerates or
Borrower elects repayment of said Allocated Loan Amount and the date said
Allocated Loan Amount is fully and finally repaid.
SECTION 3.4. IMPOUNDS.
(a) In connection with a permitted assumption or transfer of the Loan
pursuant to Subsection 7.1(c), and in order to assure compliance with
Borrower's obligations pursuant to Section 7.2, but not in lieu of such
obligations, Borrower (or its permitted successor) shall deposit with
Lender, monthly on each Payment Date (commencing on the first Payment Date
following Lender's written request), one-twelfth (1/12th) of the annual
charges for Taxes (collectively, "Impounds"). Each deposit shall be in an
amount reasonably determined by Lender that will be sufficient (when
combined with other monthly installments) to make full payment of all
Impounds thirty (30) days prior to the date any delinquency or penalty
becomes due with respect to such Impounds. Deposits shall be made on the
basis of the Impounds which have been fixed for the then current year;
provided, however, that prior to the date that such Impounds have been so
fixed, deposits shall be made on the basis of Lender's reasonable estimate
from time to time of the amount of Impounds for the then current year
(after giving effect to any recalculation or reassessment or, at Lender's
election, on the basis of the Impounds for the prior year). All funds so
deposited shall not be construed as trust funds, may be held by Lender,
without interest, and may be commingled with Lender's general funds.
Borrower Parties (including any permitted successor to Borrower Parties)
hereby grants to Lender a security interest in all Impounds so deposited
with Lender for the purpose of securing the Obligations. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, all Impounds deposited with Lender may
be applied in payment of the Impounds for which such funds have been
deposited, or to the payment of the Obligations, as Lender
22
may elect, but no such application shall be deemed to have been made by
operation of law or otherwise until actually made by Lender. Borrower's
permitted successor shall furnish Lender with bills for the Impounds at
least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Impounds first
become payable. If at any time Lender determines that the amount on deposit
with Lender, together with the monthly installments to be deposited by
Borrower's permitted successor before the Impounds are payable, are
insufficient to pay the Impounds, Borrower's permitted successor shall
deposit any deficiency with Lender within the Demand Period. Provided no
Event of Default has occurred, Lender shall pay the Impounds when the
amount on deposit with Lender is sufficient to pay such Impounds and Lender
has received a bill for such Impounds.
(b) Borrower Parties acknowledges that Lender may, at any time
Impounds are not being collected by Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) and
at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, engage the services of a tax
service company to verify the status of taxes and assessments on the
Portfolio. Lender shall be entitled to rely upon (regardless of whether or
not Lender engages a tax service company) any certificate, advice or bill
from any authority (or any official thereof) to which such payments are
payable, and Lender shall have no duty to inquire as to the validity or
accuracy of any such certificate, advice or bill or to make any protest in
connection therewith.
(c) Nothing contained in this Section 3.4 shall be deemed to affect
any right, power, privilege or remedy of Lender under any provision of this
Agreement, the Mortgage, any other Loan Document or any statute or rule of
law, to pay any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 7.2, to add
the amount so paid to the Obligations and to require Borrower to reimburse
Lender for such amount, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate
from the expiration of the Demand Period until payment in full is received
by Lender. In the event of any transfer of Borrower's right, title and
interest in or to all or any part of the Portfolio (without implying any
consent of Lender to any such transfer except as expressly set forth in
this Agreement), Lender shall be entitled to treat such transfer as also
effecting an assignment to the transferee of all right, title and interest
of Borrower Parties in and to any and all such deposits relating to the
transferred portion of the Portfolio. After any assignment by Lender of its
interest in the Loan, any such deposits on hand shall, in Lender's
discretion, be turned over to the assignee or returned to Borrower Parties,
and all further responsibility of Lender with respect to such deposits
shall terminate.
ARTICLE 4.
LEASING MATTERS
SECTION 4.1. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Borrower represents and
warrants to Lender that: (a) the rent roll delivered to Lender and attached
hereto as Schedule 4.1 (the "Rent Roll") is true, complete and correct in all
material respects, and all Leases are valid and in and full force and effect;
(b) all of the Leases (including amendments) are in writing, and there are no
oral agreements with respect thereto; (c) the copies of the Leases delivered to
Lender are true, complete and correct and include any and all amendments; (d) to
Borrower's knowledge, no Borrower Party as "landlord" nor any Tenant is in
default in any material respect under any of the Leases; (e) Borrower has no
knowledge of any notice of termination or "landlord" default issued by any
Tenant with respect to any Lease, and Borrower has provided to Lender copies of
all "tenant" default notices issued by or on behalf of an Individual Borrower in
respect of uncured tenant defaults; (f) Borrower has not assigned or pledged any
of the Leases, the Rents or any interests therein except to Lender; (g) except
as set forth in the Rent Roll, no Tenant or other party has an option to
purchase all or any portion of any Property; (h) except as set forth on the Rent
Roll, no Tenant has the right to terminate its Lease prior to expiration of the
stated term of such Lease; (i) no Tenant has prepaid more than one month's Rent
in advance (except for bona fide security deposits as shown on the Rent Roll);
and (j) other than amounts applied or returned in accordance with the Leases,
the amount of all security deposits held by or on behalf of an Individual
Borrower is the entire amount required to be deposited with or on behalf of an
Individual Borrower pursuant to the Leases, and said deposits are held, to the
extent required by applicable Legal Requirements, in separate and/or
interest-bearing accounts. Within ten (10) days after Lender's request, Borrower
shall furnish to Lender a statement of all tenant security deposits held by or
on behalf of an Individual Borrower, certified by an Authorized Representative
of Borrower as being true, complete and correct.
SECTION 4.2. LENDER'S LEASE APPROVAL RIGHTS.
23
(a) Any Leases entered into by or on behalf of any Individual Borrower
following the Funding Date that does not constitute a Major Lease shall be
on a standard form approved by Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld) with no material modifications (except as approved by Lender in
writing, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), prior to execution
by or on behalf of any Individual Borrower.
(b) From and after the Funding Date, no Borrower Party nor any Person
acting on behalf of a Borrower Party shall, without the prior written
consent of Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld): (i) enter
into any Major Lease, (ii) enter into any amendment, modification,
replacement, extension of, or renewal of any Major Lease (whether in
existence as of the Funding Date or entered into after the Funding Date),
other than extensions and/or renewals expressly contemplated by the terms
of any approved Major Lease, (iii) enter into any amendment, modification,
replacement, extension, or renewal of any non-Major Lease in a manner that
would cause such non-Major Lease to become a Major Lease, (iv) consent to
an assignment or subletting associated with any Major Lease, or (v)
terminate or accept or acquiesce to the surrender of any Lease (regardless
of whether said termination relates to a Major Lease or a non-Major Lease),
other than a termination that is expressly provided for in such Lease;
provided that Lender's approval for the termination or surrender of a
non-Major Lease shall not be required if following any such termination or
surrender, the aggregate Portfolio occupancy continues to be at least
eighty percent (80%) ("occupancy" means Tenants in occupancy, paying rent
at the rates stipulated in their respective Leases and without any other
economic or material non-economic default under such Leases). If any
Individual Borrower intends to accept the termination or surrender of a
non-Major Lease based on the immediately preceding exception, then
concurrently with the effectiveness of said termination or surrender, the
applicable Individual Borrower must provide Lender with a current rent roll
and affidavit, in form reasonably required by Lender, confirming compliance
with the conditions of said exception. Lender may condition its consent
(when required) to any Lease termination on the deposit of any termination
or surrender proceeds with Lender for distribution for costs associated
with re-letting the subject space. In connection with any request for
approval relating to a leasing matter, provided no Event of Default exists,
Lender shall notify Borrower whether Lender has approved any such Lease or
amendment, modification, replacement, extension, renewal, assignment,
subletting, termination or surrender within ten (10) Business Days
following Lender's receipt of all information reasonably requested by
Lender to review any such leasing approval request. If Lender does not so
notify Borrower within ten (10) Business Days following Lender's receipt of
all such information and if no Event of Default exists, Lender's approval
of such leasing matter shall be deemed granted.
SECTION 4.3. COVENANTS. Borrower shall (i) perform, observe, and comply
with each of the covenants and agreements which any Individual Borrower is
required to perform, observe or comply with under the Leases; (ii) use its
commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the obligations to be performed by
the Tenants under the Leases; (iii) promptly furnish to Lender any notice of
default or termination received by a or on behalf of any Individual Borrower
from any Tenant, and any notice of default or termination given by or on behalf
of any Individual Borrower to any Tenant; (iv) not collect any Rents for more
than thirty (30) days in advance of the time when the same shall become due,
except for bona fide security deposits (it being agreed by Borrower that
Borrower shall give prompt written notice to Lender if Borrower collects any
security deposit under any Lease equal to or in excess of an amount equal to
three (3) month's Rent under such Lease; (v) not enter into any ground lease or
master lease of any part of the Portfolio; (vi) not further assign or encumber
any Lease; (vii) hold in trust all payments and other monetary consideration
received by or for the benefit of a Borrower Party in connection with any
surrender or termination of any Lease and shall immediately deposit or cause to
be deposited with Lender all such payments and other monetary consideration; and
(viii) not, except as permitted in Section 4.2, enter into any new Lease or
enter into or accept any extension, modification, termination or renewal of any
existing Lease, and any action in violation of clause (v), (vi), (vii), or
(viii) of this Section 4.3 shall be void (as to all Borrower Parties ) at the
election of Lender.
SECTION 4.4. TENANT ESTOPPELS. Following the Funding Date, and within
thirty (30) days following Lender's reasonable request, Borrower shall obtain
and furnish to Lender written estoppels in form and substance satisfactory to
Lender, executed by the Tenants under all Leases and confirming the term, rent
or daily rate, and other provisions and matters relating to the applicable Lease
(provided that unless an Event of Default has occurred, Lender shall not make a
request under this Section 4.4 with respect to any Lease not more than once
during the term of the Loan).
24
SECTION 4.5. CONFLICT WITH ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS. Any
inconsistency between the terms of this Article 4 and the terms of the
Assignment of Leases and Rents shall be controlled by the terms of the
Assignment of Leases and Rents.
ARTICLE 5.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
As of the Funding Date, Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that:
SECTION 5.1. ORGANIZATION AND POWER. Each Borrower Party is duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its
formation or existence, and is in compliance with all Legal Requirements
applicable to doing business in the State. No Borrower Party is a "foreign
person" within the meaning of ss. 1445(f)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
SECTION 5.2. VALIDITY OF LOAN DOCUMENTS. The execution, delivery and
performance by each Borrower Party (as applicable) of the Loan Documents (i) are
duly authorized and do not require the consent or approval of any other party or
Governmental Authority which has not been obtained (and copies of which have
been provided to Lender); and (ii) will not violate any Legal Requirement or
result in the imposition of any Lien upon the assets of any such party, except
as contemplated by the Loan Documents. The Loan Documents constitute the legal,
valid and binding obligations of each Borrower Party (as applicable),
enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws generally affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights.
SECTION 5.3. LIABILITIES; LITIGATION.
(a) The general financial and operating information relating to each
Borrower Party and/or the Portfolio, submitted to Lender by or on behalf of any
Borrower Party concurrently with or prior to the date of the Application, is
true, complete and correct in all material respects with no significant change
since the date of submission.
(b) No Borrower Party is contemplating either the filing of a petition by
it under state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of
all or a major portion of its assets or property, and no Borrower Party has
knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against
any Borrower Party or any Property.
SECTION 5.4. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS. Except for any Property that includes
Excess Collateral as of the Funding Date, each Property constitutes a separate
tax parcel, and no parcel forming part of the Portfolio is included within a tax
parcel, for ad valorem or local real estate tax purposes, that also includes
real property not encumbered by the Mortgage. There are no pending or, to the
knowledge of Borrower Parties, any proposed special or other assessments for
public improvements or otherwise affecting any Property, nor are there any
contemplated improvements to any Property that may result in such special or
other assessments.
SECTION 5.5. OTHER AGREEMENTS; DEFAULTS. No Borrower Party is a party to
any agreement or instrument or subject to any court order, injunction, permit,
or restriction which might adversely affect any Property or the business,
operations, or condition (financial or otherwise) of any Borrower Party. No
Borrower Party is in violation of any agreement which violation would have an
adverse effect on any Property or any Borrower Party or the business,
properties, or assets, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of any
Borrower Party.
SECTION 5.6. COMPLIANCE WITH LEGAL REQUIREMENTS.
(a) Each Borrower Party has all requisite licenses, permits, franchises,
qualifications, certificates of occupancy or other governmental authorizations
to own, lease and operate each Property and carry on its business. The use being
made of each Property is in conformity with the certificate of occupancy and/or
applicable permits or governmental authorizations and any other restrictions,
covenants or conditions affecting such Property.
25
(b) Each Property is in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements
(including building, parking, subdivision, land use, health, fire, safety and
zoning ordinances and codes).
(c) No Property constitutes, in whole or in part, a legally non-conforming
use under any Legal Requirements.
(d) No condemnation has been commenced or, to Borrower's knowledge, is
contemplated with respect to all or any portion of any Property or for the
relocation of roadways providing access to any Property.
(e) Each Property has adequate rights of access to public ways, and all
roads necessary for the full utilization of each Property for its current
purpose have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by
applicable Governmental Authorities.
(f) Except to the extent that any Property is adequately served by private
systems and facilities located on such Property (and disclosed on the survey
delivered to Lender on the Funding Date), each Property is served by adequate
water, sewer, sanitary sewer and storm drain facilities, all public utilities
necessary or convenient to the full use and enjoyment of such Property are
located in the public right-of-way abutting such Property, and all such
utilities are connected so as to serve such Property without passing over other
property, except to the extent such other property is subject to a perpetual
easement for such utility benefiting such Property.
(g) Borrower and, to the knowledge of Borrower, each other party bound
under any declaration, reciprocal easement agreement, or other instrument of
covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting any of the Properties are
current in the payment of all sums that may be due thereunder and are otherwise
in compliance in all material respects with the other provisions thereof.
SECTION 5.7. LOCATION OF BORROWER. The principal place of business and
chief executive offices of each Borrower Party are located at the addresses
stated in Section 9.1.
SECTION 5.8. ERISA. No Borrower Party has established any pension plan for
employees that would cause a Borrower Party to be subject to ERISA.
SECTION 5.9. MARGIN STOCK. No part of proceeds of the Loan will be used for
purchasing or acquiring any "margin stock" within the meaning of Regulations T,
U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
SECTION 5.10. TAX FILINGS. Each Borrower Party has filed (or have obtained
effective extensions for filing) all federal, state and local tax returns
required to be filed and have paid or made adequate provision for the payment of
all federal, state and local taxes, charges and assessments payable by such
Borrower Party, respectively.
SECTION 5.11. SOLVENCY. The fair saleable value of each Borrower Parties'
assets exceeds and will, immediately following the funding of the Loan, exceed
such Borrower Party's total liabilities, including subordinated, unliquidated,
disputed and contingent liabilities. The fair saleable value of each Borrower
Parties' assets are and will, immediately following the funding of the Loan, be
greater than such Borrower Party's probable liabilities, including the maximum
amount of its contingent liabilities on its Debts as such Debts become absolute
and matured. Each Borrower Parties' assets do not and, immediately following the
funding of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out
its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. No Borrower Party
intends to, and does not believe that it will, incur Debts and liabilities
(including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to
pay such Debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of
cash to be received by such Borrower Party and the amounts to be payable on or
in respect of obligations of such Borrower Party).
SECTION 5.12. FULL AND ACCURATE DISCLOSURE. No statement of fact made by or
on behalf of any Borrower Party in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan
Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact. There is no fact
presently known to any Borrower Party which has not been disclosed to Lender
that materially and adversely affects, or as far as any Borrower Party can
reasonably predict, might materially and
26
adversely affect, any Property or the business, operations or condition
(financial or otherwise) of any Borrower Party.
SECTION 5.13. PROPERTY CONDITIONS. Each Property is free of material
structural defects, and all building systems contained therein are in good
working order in all material respects, subject to ordinary wear and tear.
SECTION 5.14. TERRORISM AND ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING.
(a) As of the Funding Date, no direct or indirect holder of a beneficial
interest in Borrower is an OFAC Prohibited Person.
(b) To comply with the Anti-Money Laundering Laws, all payments by a
Borrower Party to Lender or from Lender to a Borrower Party shall only be made
in the name of a Borrower Party and to and from a bank account of a bank based
or incorporated in or formed under the laws of the United States or a bank that
is not a "foreign shell bank" within the meaning of the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act
(31 U.S.C. ss. 5311 et seq.), as amended, and the regulations promulgated
thereunder by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, as such regulations may be
amended from time to time.
(c) Each Borrower Party agrees to provide to Lender, or to cause any other
Person having a beneficial interest in a Borrower Party, to provide, at any time
and from time to time during the term of the Loan, such information as Lender
determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with the Anti-Money
Laundering Laws of any applicable jurisdiction, or to respond to requests for
information concerning the identity of any Borrower Party or any Person having a
direct or indirect beneficial interest in any Borrower Party, from any
Governmental Authority, self-regulatory organization or financial institution in
connection with its anti-money laundering compliance procedures, or to update
such information.
(d) The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 5.14 shall
be deemed repeated and reaffirmed by each Borrower Party as of each Payment Date
and as of each date on which any Borrower Party receives any funds from Lender.
Each Borrower Party agrees to promptly notify Lender in writing should it become
aware of any change in the information set forth in this Section 5.14. Section
5.15. Financing Transaction. The Loan is (or shall be) evidenced by debt
instruments that are intended to be accounted for as "debt" on the balance sheet
of each Borrower Party, and each Borrower Party shall account for the Loan as
"debt" in all financial statements prepared by or on behalf of each Borrower
party.
SECTION 5.16. PERSONAL PROPERTY. Except for the Personal Property listed on
Schedule 5.16 attached hereto, no material tangible Personal Property is located
within or outside any Property or used or proposed to be used in any Property. A
Borrower Party has good title to all Personal Property free and clear of all
Liens, except as disclosed on Schedule 5.16.
SECTION 5.17. ADDITIONAL REAL PROPERTY. Except for the Land (as defined in
the Mortgage) and Improvements and any contiguous public streets and sidewalks,
no Borrower Party nor any Property Manager uses or occupies any other material
real property in connection with the operation, occupancy and management of any
Property.
SECTION 5.18. MATERIAL AGREEMENTS.
(a) As of the Funding Date, each Property owned by an Individual Borrower
is managed by Carveout Indemnitor in accordance with the partnership agreement
for such Individual Borrower, and no separate management or leasing agreements
currently exist. Management fees payable to Carveout Indemnitor shall not be
modified to the extent that such modification would cause the management fees to
exceed market rates payable to unrelated and qualified third party property
managers and/or leasing agents.
27
(b) No Borrower Party other than Carveout Indemnitor has any right or claim
to, or obligation to pay, any fees, commissions, royalties, compensation or
other remuneration in connection with or arising out of the use, occupancy,
management, and operation of any Property. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.18,
there are no Material Agreements affecting any Property.
ARTICLE 6.
FINANCIAL REPORTING; AUDITS
SECTION 6.1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. While any of the Obligations remain
outstanding, Borrower shall furnish to Lender, or in the case of the reporting

and (iii) a capital expenditure summary for each Property for the preceding
calendar year, certified by an Authorized Representative of Borrower as true,
accurate and complete;

with the conditions and requirements set forth in said clause (a)(iii); and
(i) Promptly following Lender's request, such other reasonable financial
information relating to any Property or any Borrower Party as Lender may request
in writing from time to time.
SECTION 6.2. ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES. All financial statements for the
Carveout Indemnitor set forth above shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP,
consistently applied, except for certain reclassifications allowed by GAAP or to
comply with new GAAP accounting pronouncements. All operating statements for a
Property shall
28
be prepared in accordance with GAAP, except rental income shall be prepared on
an accrual basis, and not straight-lined.
ARTICLE 7.
COVENANTS
Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender as follows:
SECTION 7.1. DUE ON SALE AND ENCUMBRANCE; TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS.
(a) Without the prior written consent of Lender and except as expressly
provided below:
(i) No Borrower Party nor any Person having an ownership or beneficial
interest in a Borrower Party shall (A) consummate a Transfer, or (B) enter
into any easement or other agreement granting rights in or restricting the
use or development of the Collateral; and
(ii) No new partners shall be admitted to or created in a Borrower
Party (nor shall any existing partner withdraw from a Borrower Party); and
(iii) No change in the day-to-day control and management of a Borrower
Party, any Property or the Portfolio shall be implemented.
Lender shall not be required to demonstrate any actual impairment of its
security or any increased risk of default in order to declare the Obligations to
be immediately due and payable upon a Transfer in violation of this Agreement.
This provision shall apply to every Transfer in violation of this Agreement
regardless of whether such Transfer was voluntary or not, or whether or not
Lender has previously consented to any Transfer.
(b) Notwithstanding the restrictions in Subsection 7.1(a), Permitted
Transfers will be permitted without Lender's prior consent. Carveout Indemnitor
(or any successor permitted under clause (a)(iii) of the definition of
"Permitted Transfer" in Section 1.1) shall at all times, whether prior to or
following the occurrence of any Permitted Transfer, be the sole general partner
of each Individual Borrower.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement,
Lender shall consent to a one-time transfer of title to the Portfolio and
assumption of 100% of the Loan and the duties and obligations of Borrower and
Carveout Indemnitor under the Loan Documents, subject to satisfaction of each
and every one of the following conditions:
(i) At least thirty (30) days prior to such assumption, Borrower
Parties shall provide to Lender: (A) written notice (a "Assumption
Request") of the proposed transfer, (B) a work fee in the amount of
$25,000.00 (the "Assumption Work Fee"), (C) the name(s), address(es) and
organizational documents of the proposed purchaser and of the principals,
affiliates and parent or other majority owners, as applicable, of the
proposed purchaser, (D) detailed and complete financial statements of the
proposed purchaser and of the principals, affiliates and parent or other
majority owners, as applicable, of the proposed purchaser, (E) information

purchaser and its principals, affiliates and parent or other majority
owners, as applicable, and their experience in the ownership and operation
of properties similar to the Portfolio and other commercial real estate,
(F) information on the proposed property management company and a copy of
the proposed property management agreement, (G) the terms and conditions of
the proposed sale and a copy of the executed purchase and sale agreement,
(H) a description of the ownership structure of the proposed purchaser and
each of its principals, affiliates and parent or other majority owners, as
applicable, (I) the purchaser's pro-forma operating and management plan for
the Portfolio, and (J) promptly following Lender's request, such other
information as Lender may reasonably request to permit it to determine the
creditworthiness and management abilities of the proposed purchaser and its
principals, affiliates and parent or other majority owners, as applicable;
29
(ii) Lender must approve, in the exercise of its discretion, the
identity, creditworthiness, management abilities and all other attributes
of the proposed purchaser and the proposed replacement Carveout
Indemnitor(s), and their respective principals, affiliates and parent or
other majority owners, as applicable;
(iii) No Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
either as of the date of the Assumption Request or thereafter through the
date of transfer of title to the Portfolio and assumption of the Loan;
(iv) The Portfolio, as of the date of transfer and assumption and
thereafter, must be managed by a management company approved by Lender (in
the exercise of its reasonable judgment) under a management agreement
satisfactory to Lender (in the exercise of its reasonable judgment) and
otherwise satisfying the requirements of Section 7.10;
(v) At the closing of any approved transfer and assumption, the
proposed purchaser shall assume the duties and obligations of Borrower
Parties under the Loan Documents (subject to the limitations on liability
set forth in Article 10) pursuant to assumption documents in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender (in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment). Additionally, at the time of the approved transfer and
assumption, the proposed purchaser shall provide to Lender an environmental
indemnity agreement from said purchaser and from another financially
responsible Person acceptable to Lender (in its discretion) in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender (which form may be different
from the form executed by Borrower Parties as a result of Lender's updating
its standard form of environmental indemnity agreement or as a result of
specific environmental conditions at any Property) and a recourse carveout
indemnity in substantially the same form as the Carveout Indemnity, also
from a financially responsible Person acceptable to Lender (in its
discretion). Borrower Parties and the proposed purchaser and such other
Persons as Lender shall require shall also deliver and, if applicable,
execute (A) evidence of authority and entity existence, (B) Uniform
Commercial Code, judgment and bankruptcy searches, (C) Uniform Commercial
Code financing statements, (D) an endorsement to the Title Policy updating
the effective date to the date of the transfer, showing the purchaser as
the owner of each Property, showing no additional title exceptions, except
as shall be approved by Lender (in its discretion) and otherwise in form
and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender, (E) opinions of counsel
reasonably acceptable to Lender on such matters as Lender shall reasonably
require, (F) evidence of insurance as required by Section 3.1, and (G) such
other documents as Lender shall reasonably require in order to effectuate
the transaction as contemplated by this Subsection (c);
(vi) At the closing of any approved transfer and assumption, the
proposed purchaser shall, in accordance with the terms and conditions of
Sections 3.4, deposit with Lender sufficient funds to pay when due all
Impounds in accordance with the terms of Section 3.4. To the extent the
Loan Documents require any other reserves or deposits the same shall be
established by the proposed purchaser prior to the date of closing of the
approved transfer and assumption. The foregoing requirement for deposits
and reserves shall be enforced notwithstanding that any of the foregoing
may have been waived by Lender with respect to Borrower Parties either in
this Agreement, or in any side letter or agreement executed by Lender;
(vii) At the closing of any approved transfer and assumption, Borrower
shall pay to Lender a fee in the amount of one percent (1%) of the then
outstanding balance of the Loan in immediately available funds (the
"Assumption Fee"). The obligation to pay the Assumption Fee is
consideration to induce Lender to allow the proposed purchaser to assume
the obligations of Borrower Parties' under the Loan Documents and to
release Borrower Parties from liability thereunder for all periods of time
from and after the date of transfer in accordance with this Subsection (c);
provided that in no event shall any Borrower Party be released from any
liability accruing prior to the date of the transfer of the Portfolio
pursuant to this Subsection (c), including acts or omissions leading to a
violation of Environmental Laws (as defined in the Environmental Indemnity
Agreement), whether known or unknown as of the closing of the approved
transfer;
30
(viii) The proposed transfer and assumption shall not cause a
violation of any Legal Requirements governing any Property, the Loan,
Borrower Parties, the proposed purchaser, any proposed replacement carveout
indemnitor or any of their respective principals;
(ix) Lender must confirm, in the exercise of its reasonable judgment,
that as of the date of the proposed transfer of the Portfolio and
assumption of the Loan, the Portfolio will generate (A) the lesser of (1) a
Loan to Value Ratio of not more than sixty-five percent (65%), and (2) a
Loan to Cost Ratio of not more than sixty-five percent (65%); and (B) a
Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 125%, calculated for the 12-month
period immediately following the proposed transfer of the Portfolio and
assumption of the Loan (based on a fully amortizing 20-year schedule). As
used herein, "Loan to Value Ratio" means the ratio of (A) the outstanding
balance of the Loan, compared to (B) the aggregate of the then "as is"
value of the Portfolio, all as determined by Lender in the exercise of its
reasonable judgment. As used herein, "Loan to Cost Ratio" means the ratio
of (A) the outstanding balance of the Loan, compared to (B) the aggregate
of the purchase price and other reasonable and customary closing costs, as
approved by Lender in its discretion, paid by the proposed purchaser to
acquire the Portfolio;
(x) On the earlier of ten (10) days following demand by Lender or the
closing of the approved transfer and assumption, Borrower Parties shall pay
all of Lender's reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with
the proposed transfer of the Portfolio whether or not the transfer actually
occurs, including attorneys' fees, recording and filing charges, title
company charges and the cost of the endorsement to the Title Policy. The
Assumption Work Fee shall be applied to reimburse Lender for its costs and
expenses (with any excess after full payment of all of Lender's costs and
expenses being applied to the Assumption Fee or returned to Borrower
Parties), but the Assumption Work Fee shall not be deemed to be a cap or
limitation on the obligation of Borrower to reimburse Lender for all costs
and expenses incurred by Lender under this Subsection (c), regardless of
whether such amounts exceed the Assumption Work Fee and/or Lender, in the
exercise of its judgment, does not approve the proposed purchaser, any
proposed replacement guarantor or any other aspect of the proposed
transfer; and
(xi) Lender shall have no obligation to review or process the request
of Borrower Parties for approval of a proposed transfer of the Portfolio
and assumption of the Loan until such time as Lender has received all of
the items, including the Assumption Work Fee, required to be delivered to
Lender pursuant to this Subsection (c).
(d) Notwithstanding the restrictions in Subsection 7.1(a), Lender shall not
withhold its consent to any pledge by Carveout Indemnitor of the general
partnership interests in Borrower in order to secure so-called "mezzanine"
financing subject to satisfaction (to be determined by Lender in the exercise of
its reasonable judgment) of each and every one of the following conditions:
(i) No Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, either
as of the date of the request for Lender's consent or thereafter through
the date of the closing of such pledge and the proposed mezzanine
financing;
(ii) Lender must confirm (in the exercise of its reasonable
discretion) that following the closing of such pledge and the proposed
mezzanine financing, Carveout Indemnitor shall have a Tangible Net Worth of
not less than $100,000,000;
(iii) Each Borrower Party must deliver all information reasonably
requested by Lender with respect to such pledge and the proposed mezzanine
financing;
(iv) Prior to Lender's consent under this Subsection 7.1(d) becoming
effective, Borrower must reimburse Lender for all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the mezzanine financing,
including legal fees and expenses; and
(v) At all times following the closing of such pledge and the proposed
mezzanine financing, Carveout Indemnitor shall remain the sole general
partner of each Individual Borrower and shall continue
31
to control the exercise of all rights, powers and privileges afforded to
Carveout Indemnitor in its capacity as general partner under the applicable
partnership agreements and other organizational documents and applicable
laws, and no pledgee of Carveout Indemnitor's general partnership interests
in any Individual Borrower may take title to such general partnership
interests or exercise any of the rights, powers and privileges afforded to
Carveout Indemnitor in its capacity as general partner.
(e) The prohibitions and restrictions set forth in this Article 7 shall not
preclude: (i) any Borrower Party from granting liens that encumber real property
other than the Collateral, or (ii) Carveout Indemnitor from providing
indemnities or guaranties in favor of creditors other than Lender; it being
agreed such actions may be effected without Lender's consent.
SECTION 7.2. TAXES; CHARGES.
(a) Subject to the terms of Section 3.4, Borrower shall pay before any
fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto, and shall not enter into
any agreement to defer, any Taxes. Borrower shall not suffer or permit the joint
assessment of any Property with any other real or personal property not
encumbered by the Mortgage.
(b) Borrower shall pay when due all claims and demands of mechanics,
material suppliers, laborers and others which, if unpaid, might result in a Lien
on any Property; provided, however, that Borrower Parties may contest the
validity of such claims and demands so long as (i) the applicable Individual
Borrower notifies Lender that it intends to contest such claim or demand, (ii)
Borrower Parties provide Lender with an indemnity, bond or other security
satisfactory to Lender (including an endorsement to the Title Policy insuring
against such claim or demand) assuring the discharge of the obligations of the
applicable Individual Borrower for such claims and demands, including interest
and penalties, and (iii) the applicable Individual Borrower is diligently
contesting the same by appropriate legal proceedings in good faith and at its
own expense and concludes such contest prior to the tenth (10th) day preceding
the earlier to occur of the Scheduled Maturity Date or the date on which such
Property is scheduled to be sold for non-payment.
SECTION 7.3. ALTERATIONS AND RENOVATIONS. Borrower Parties shall obtain
Lender's prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) to
any alterations or renovations to any of the Improvements; provided, however,
that Lender's consent shall not be required in connection with any alterations
or renovations that (i) are contemplated in connection with any Restoration,
(ii) are permitted to be made by any Tenant under its Lease without the consent
or approval of any Borrower Party, or (iii) will not have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition of any Borrower Party, the value of the
affected Property or the Net Operating Income of the affected Property, provided
further that such alterations permitted under subsection (iii) do not adversely
affect any structural component of any Improvements relating to the affected
Property, any utility or HVAC system contained in any Improvements relating to
the affected Property, or the exterior of any building constituting a part of
any Improvements of the affected Property, and the aggregate cost thereof does
not exceed the lesser of either: (A) ten percent (10%) of the Allocated Loan
Amount of the affected Property, or (B) One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00). In
connection with any request for approval relating to any alterations or
renovations to any of the Improvements, provided no Event of Default exists,
Lender shall notify Borrower whether Lender has approved any such request within
ten (10) Business Days following Lender's receipt of all information reasonably
requested by Lender to review any such request. If Lender does not so notify
Borrower within ten (10) Business Days following Lender's receipt of all such
information and if no Event of Default exists, Lender's approval of such request
shall be deemed granted.
SECTION 7.4. OPERATION; MAINTENANCE.
(a) Borrower shall not cause or permit any waste of any material portion of
any Property.
(b) Borrower shall observe and comply with all Legal Requirements
applicable to the ownership, use and operation of each Property and shall
promptly commence a reasonable and good faith cure of any alleged violation of
any Legal Requirements; provided that the applicable Individual Borrower may,
upon providing Lender with security satisfactory to Lender (in the exercise of
Lender's reasonable judgment) and so long as during any contest the Collateral
shall not be subject to any lien, charge, fine or other liability and shall not
be in danger of
32
being forfeited, lost or closed, proceed diligently and in good faith to contest
the validity or applicability of any such alleged violation of Legal
Requirement.
(c) Borrower shall maintain each Property in good condition and promptly
repair any damage or casualty (subject to the terms of this Agreement).
(d) Upon reasonable prior notice (except during the existence of an Event
of Default, when no prior notice shall be required), Borrower Parties and any
Property Manager (if any) shall provide Lender and its agents, representatives
and contractors with access to each Property from time to time (subject to the
rights of Tenants) for the purposes of conducting appraisals, engineering
inspections and environmental assessments of such Property (provided that Lender
must have a good faith belief that an Individual Borrower is not in material
compliance with its warranties, covenants and agreements relating to physical
condition of the subject Property and/or compliance with Legal Requirements
(including Environmental Laws, as defined in the Environmental Indemnity
Agreement) prior to the commencement of any post-Funding Date engineering
inspection or environmental assessment or investigation with respect to that
Property) and with access to Borrower's home office for purposes of examining
and copying the books and records relating to the Portfolio. The costs relating
to such activities shall be paid by Lender unless (i) Lender has a good faith
basis for suspecting that an Individual Borrower is not in material compliance
with its warranties, covenants and agreements relating to the physical condition
of the subject Property and/or compliance with laws (including environmental
laws), (ii) the examination of such books and records reveals that financial
information submitted to Lender by Borrower Parties, Property Manager or anyone
on behalf of Borrower Parties is materially inaccurate, or (iii) an Event of
Default exists (or is discovered as a result of any such inspection or review),
in which case the reasonable third party fees and expenses relating to such
activities shall be paid by Borrower within the Demand Period.
(e) All Operating Revenues shall be applied to Operating Expenses, Debt
Service and reasonable and necessary capital expenditures or costs, and then,
provided no Event of Default exists, to general operating purposes of Borrower,
including distributions to members and/or partners of Borrower.
SECTION 7.5. TAXES ON SECURITY. Borrower shall pay all taxes, charges,
filing, registration and recording fees, excises and levies payable with respect
to the Note or the Liens created or secured by the Loan Documents, other than
income, franchise and doing business taxes imposed on Lender. If there shall be
enacted any law (a) deducting the Loan from the value of the Collateral for the
purpose of taxation, (b) affecting any Lien on any Property, or (c) changing
existing laws of taxation of mortgages, deeds of trust, security deeds, or debts
secured by real property, or changing the manner of collecting any such taxes,
Borrower shall promptly pay to Lender, within thirty (30) days following demand,
all taxes, costs and charges for which Lender is or may be liable as a result
thereof; provided, however, that if any such payment would be prohibited by law
or would render the Loan usurious, then instead of collecting such payment,
Lender may declare all amounts owing under the Loan Documents to be immediately
due and payable (provided that Borrower shall have no obligation to make payment
of any Applicable Prepayment Fee otherwise applicable to prepayment tendered as
a result of Lender's exercise of its rights under this Section 7.5).
SECTION 7.6. COMPLIANCE WITH LOAN DOCUMENTS; FURTHER ASSURANCES.
(a) Each Borrower Party shall observe, perform and satisfy in a timely
manner all the terms, provisions, covenants, conditions, duties and obligations
required to be observed, performed or satisfied by them, and shall pay when due

this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents.
(b) Each Borrower Party shall promptly (i) cure, or cause to be cured, any
defects in the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, and (ii) execute
and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such other documents,
agreements and instruments as Lender may reasonably request to further evidence
and more fully describe the collateral for the Obligations, to correct any
omissions or errors in the Loan Documents, to perfect, protect or preserve any
Liens created under any of the Loan Documents, or to make any recordings, file
any notices, or obtain any consents, as may be necessary or appropriate in
connection therewith.
33
(c) No Borrower Party shall (i) change the location of its chief executive
office/chief place of business from that specified in Section 9.1, or (ii)
change its name, or (iii) change the location where it maintains its records
with respect to the Portfolio, unless in each instance Borrower Parties shall
have given Lender at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any such
change and shall have delivered to Lender all UCC financing statements and
amendments thereto as Lender shall request and taken all other actions deemed
necessary by Lender to continue its perfected first priority lien status in the
Collateral. Section
7.7. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Borrower Parties, within twenty (20) days after
request, shall furnish to Lender a written statement, duly acknowledged by an
Authorized Representative of Borrower Parties, setting forth the amount due on
the Loan, the terms of repayment of the Loan, the date to which interest has
been paid, whether any offsets or defenses exist against the Loan and, if any
are alleged to exist, the nature thereof in detail, and such other reasonable
matters as Lender may request.
SECTION 7.8. NOTICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS. Borrower Parties shall, within three
(3) Business Days after gaining knowledge, notify Lender of (i) any Event of
Default, together with a detailed statement of the steps being taken to cure
such Event of Default (Lender having no obligation to accept any such cure of an
Event of Default unless acceptance of a cure and reinstatement is mandatory
under applicable law); (ii) any notice of any material default received by
Borrower Parties under other obligations relating to any Property or otherwise
material to Borrower's business; and (iii) any threatened or pending legal,
judicial or regulatory proceedings, including any dispute between a Borrower
Party and any Governmental Authority, affecting a Borrower Party or any
Property.
SECTION 7.9. INDEMNIFICATION. Borrower shall jointly and severally
indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all losses,
liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever,
including the reasonable fees and actual expenses of Lender's attorneys, in
connection with (i) any inspection, review or testing of or with respect to any
Property, (ii) any investigative, administrative, mediation, arbitration, or
judicial proceeding, whether or not Lender is designated a party thereto,
commenced or threatened at any time (including after the repayment of the Loan)
in any way related to the execution, delivery or performance of any Loan
Document or to any Property, (iii) any proceeding instituted by any Person
claiming a Lien, and (iv) any brokerage commissions or finder's fees claimed by
any broker or other party in connection with the Loan, any Property, or any of
the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents, including those arising
from the joint, concurrent, or comparative negligence of Lender, except to the
extent any of the foregoing is caused by Lender's gross negligence or willful
misconduct.
SECTION 7.10. PROPERTY MANAGEMENT.
(a) Each Property has been, and as of the Funding Date will be, managed by
Carveout Indemnitor. If at any time any Individual Borrower wishes to engage a
third-party property manager (including any Affiliate of Borrower) to manage the
applicable Property, Borrower must request and receive Lender's approval of such
proposed property manager and the proposed management agreement (Lender's
approval not to be unreasonably withheld) prior to engaging such proposed
property manager. Lender may condition its approval of a proposed property
manager and management agreement on such Individual Borrower's and such proposed
property manager's execution and delivery of an assignment of management
agreement and subordination of management fees in form and substance acceptable
to Lender whereby, among other things, the proposed property manager agrees to
subordinate payment of its management fees to the full and timely payment of the
Obligations, and such Individual Borrower assigns to Lender all of Borrower's
rights under the proposed management agreement.
(b) Borrower Parties shall (i) diligently perform and observe all of the
terms, covenants and conditions of any Management Agreement on the part of
Borrower Parties to be performed and observed and do all things necessary to
preserve and to keep unimpaired its rights thereunder, and (ii) within three (3)
Business Days following receipt, notify Lender of the giving of any notice by
any Property Manager to Borrower Parties of any default by a Borrower Party in
the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of
any Management Agreement on the part of a Borrower Party to be performed and
observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice.
(c) Without the prior written consent of Lender (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld if no Event of Default exists), no Borrower Party shall
(i) surrender any Management Agreement, (ii) consent to the
34
assignment by the Property Manager of its rights, duties or obligations under
any Management Agreement, (iii) terminate or cancel any Management Agreement, or
(iv) modify, change, supplement, alter or amend any Management Agreement, either
orally or in writing.
(d) Any change in ownership or control of any Property Manager shall be
cause for Lender to re-approve such Property Manager and the applicable
Management Agreement (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld if no Event
of Default exists).
(e) Borrower hereby assigns to Lender all the rights, privileges and
prerogatives of Borrower in and under any Management Agreement (including the
right to surrender any Management Agreement or to terminate, cancel, modify,
change, supplement, alter or amend any Management Agreement in any respect, and
any such surrender of any Management Agreement or termination, cancellation,
modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of any Management
Agreement without the prior consent of Lender shall be void and of no force and
effect).
(f) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may require, upon
ten (10) Business Days prior written notice to Borrower, that Borrower select a
Property Manager not affiliated with Borrower to manage each Property. If a
Property Manager is so required by Lender, Borrower shall immediately seek to
appoint a Property Manager acceptable to Lender (in the exercise of its
reasonable discretion), which Property Manager shall (i) be a reputable
management company having at least ten (10) years' experience in the management
of properties substantially similar to each Property and in the jurisdiction in
which each Property is located, (ii) not be paid management fees in excess of
market fees, (iii) enter into a property management agreement in form and
content acceptable to Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld),
and (iv) enter into a subordination agreement with Lender in form and content
reasonably required by Lender.
SECTION 7.11. MATERIAL AGREEMENTS. Borrower shall not enter into or become
obligated under, or permit Property Manager to enter into or become obligated
under, any Material Agreement pertaining to any Property, without the prior
written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
SECTION 7.12. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
SECTION 7.13. ERISA.
(a) No Borrower Party shall engage in any transaction that would cause any
obligation, or action taken or to be taken, hereunder (or the exercise by Lender
of any of its rights under the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents)
to be a non-exempt (under a statutory or administrative class exemption)
prohibited transaction under ERISA.
(b) Borrower Parties shall deliver to Lender such certifications or other
evidence from time to time throughout the term of the Loan, as requested by
Lender, that (i) no Borrower Party is an "employee benefit plan" as defined in
Section 3(3) of ERISA, which is subject to Title I of ERISA, or a "governmental
plan" within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA; (ii) no Borrower Party is
subject to any state statute regulating investments of, or fiduciary obligations
with respect to, governmental plans; and (iii) one or more of the following
circumstances is true:
(i) Equity interests in each Borrower Party are publicly offered
securities, within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. ss.2510.3-101(b)(2);
(ii) Less than twenty-five percent (25%) of each outstanding class of
equity interests in each Borrower Party is held by "benefit plan investors"
within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. ss.2510.3-101(f)(2); or
(iii) Each Borrower Party qualifies as an "operating company" or a
"real estate operating company" within the meaning of 29 C.F.R.
ss.2510.3-101(c) or (e).
35
SECTION 7.14. APPRAISAL. Borrower Parties shall cooperate with Lender's
request for reasonable information necessary to complete a new or updated
appraisal of each Property, and Borrower Parties shall reimburse Lender for all
costs associated with a new or updated appraisal of such Property; provided that
so long as no Event of Default has occurred, Borrower Parties shall only be
obligated to reimburse Lender for one (1) new or updated appraisal for each
Property after the Funding Date (the reimbursement obligations of Borrower
Parties being unlimited following the occurrence of an Event of Default).
SECTION 7.15. RELEASE OF COLLATERAL.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 7.15, Lender agrees
to execute and deliver to Borrower in connection with the sale or transfer by
any Individual Borrower of any Property a partial release instrument (in
recordable form) of the lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents as to
such Property (each, a "Partial Release"), provided that in connection with each
such Partial Release, each and every one of the following conditions are
satisfied (to be determined by Lender in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment):
(i) As of the date Lender issues such Partial Release, no monetary
Potential Default (which solely for the purposes of this provisions means a
failure to make a payment of a liquidated sum of money on the due date
thereof but for which the applicable grace period has yet to expire) then
exists, and no Event of Default shall exist;
(ii) Borrower shall have submitted a written request for such Partial
Release no less than thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated issuance
thereof, such request identifying the Property subject to such requested
Partial Release and containing all other information required hereunder;
(iii) Borrower shall not be entitled to request, and Lender shall have
no obligation to issue: (A) a Partial Release prior to October 1, 2009, and
(B) Partial Releases for more than two (2) Properties in any 12-month
period;
(iv) Borrower shall not be entitled to request, and Lender shall have
no obligation to issue a Partial Release for any Property, if such
Property, together with all Properties previously released pursuant to this
Section 7.15, contains, in the aggregate, more than: (A) 807,000 square
feet, if the San Ignacio Properties shall have been previously released
pursuant to this Section 7.15 or substituted pursuant to Section 7.16; or
(B) 600,000, if the San Ignacio Properties shall remain in the Portfolio;
(v) Concurrently with its delivery of a Partial Release, Lender shall
receive a partial release prepayment (each a "Partial Release Prepayment")
in an amount equal to: (A) one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the
Allocated Loan Amount for the applicable Property and (B) the Applicable
Prepayment Fee (if any) relating to such Partial Release Prepayment, such
amount to be applied by Lender in satisfaction of the Obligations
(including any such Applicable Prepayment Fee);
(vi) Lender shall have confirmed, in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment, that the remaining Properties within the Portfolio shall,
following the issuance of such Partial Release, generate a Debt Service
Coverage Ratio, calculated for the 12-month period immediately following
the issuance of the requested Partial Release (based on a fully amortizing
20-year schedule), equal to or in excess of the greater of: (A) 125%, or
(B) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for all Properties (inclusive of the
Property subject to the requested Partial Release and without giving effect
to the Partial Release Prepayment to be made for the requested Partial
Release) calculated for the 12-month period immediately preceding the
issuance of the requested Partial Release;
(vii) Lender shall have confirmed in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment, that the Loan to Value Ratio, calculated after giving effect to
the issuance of the requested Partial Release and application of the
Partial Release Prepayment to be made for such requested Partial Release,
shall not exceed the lesser of (1) 65%, or (2) the Loan to Value Ratio
calculated immediately prior to giving effect to the issuance of such
Partial Release and application of the Partial Release Prepayment to be
made for such Partial Release. As used herein, "Loan to Value Ratio" means
the ratio of (A) the then outstanding balance of the Loan,
36
compared to (B) the aggregate of the then "as is" value of the Portfolio,
all as determined by Lender in the exercise of its reasonable judgment;
(viii) Concurrently with Lender's execution and delivery of each
Partial Release, Lender must receive a partial release fee of $2,500.00
together with payment of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by
Lender in connection with such Partial Release, including reasonable
outside counsel attorneys' fees and expenses; and
(ix) Lender shall have confirmed in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment, that no Property remaining within the Portfolio will, following
the issuance of the requested Partial Release, be adversely affected by
such partial release because such remaining Property relied on the Property
to be released for compliance with all Legal Requirements (including
zoning, subdivision, shared parking, utilities, and/or access).
(b) Upon approval of a requested Partial Release and satisfaction of the
terms and conditions specified in this Section 7.15, Lender shall execute and
deliver to Borrower Parties the Partial Release.
SECTION 7.16. SUBSTITUTION OF COLLATERAL.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 7.16, Lender agrees
to accept the substitution of collateral for a Property (each, a "Collateral
Substitution"), provided that in connection with each Collateral Substitution,
each and every one of the following conditions are satisfied (to be determined
by Lender in the exercise of its reasonable judgment):
(i) As of the date Lender consents to the Collateral Substitution and
as of the date the Collateral Substitution is deemed effective, no monetary
Potential Default (which solely for the purposes of this provisions means a
failure to make a payment of a liquidated sum of money on the due date
thereof but for which the applicable grace period has yet to expire) then
exists, and no Event of Default shall exist;
(ii) Borrower shall not be entitled to request, and Lender shall have
no obligation to approve: (A) a Collateral Substitution prior to October 1,
2009 or after October 1, 2017, and (B) Collateral Substitutions for more
than two (2) Properties in any 12-month period;
(iii) Only Borrower, and not a permitted successor under Section
7.1(c), shall have the right to request a Collateral Substitution;
(iv) Borrower shall not be entitled to request, and Lender shall have
no obligation to approve a Collateral Substitution for any Property, if
such Property, together with all Properties previously substituted pursuant
to this Section 7.16, contains, in the aggregate, more than: (A) 807,000
square feet, if the San Ignacio Properties shall have been previously
released pursuant to Section 7.15 or substituted pursuant to this Section
7.16; or (B) 600,000, if the San Ignacio Properties shall remain a portion
of the Portfolio;
(v) Lender shall have confirmed, in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment, that the Portfolio will, following the closing of such Collateral
Substitution, generate a Debt Service Coverage Ratio, calculated for the
12-month period immediately following the closing of the requested
Collateral Substitution (based on a fully amortizing 20-year schedule),
equal to or in excess of the greater of: (A) 125%, or (B) the Debt Service
Coverage Ratio (inclusive of the Property to be released from the Portfolio
and exclusive of the Substitute Property to be added to the Portfolio in
connection with the requested Collateral Substitution) calculated for the
12-month period immediately preceding the closing of the requested
Collateral Substitution;
(vi) Lender shall have confirmed in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment, that the Loan to Value Ratio, calculated after giving effect to
the closing of the Collateral Substitution, will not exceed the lesser of
(1) 65%, or (2) the Loan to Value Ratio calculated immediately prior to
giving effect to the
37
closing of the Collateral Substitution. As used herein, "Loan to Value
Ratio" means the ratio of (A) the then outstanding balance of the Loan,
compared to (B) the aggregate of the then "as is" value of the Portfolio,
all as determined by Lender in the exercise of its reasonable judgment;
(vii) Borrower Parties shall have submitted a written request for the
Collateral Substitution no less than sixty (60) days prior to the
anticipated consummation thereof, such request identifying the Property
subject to the requested Collateral Substitution and the proposed
substitute collateral therefor, and containing all other information
reasonably requested by Lender in connection with its consideration of the
request for the Collateral Substitution (said sixty (60) day review period
commencing when Lender receives all information reasonably requested by
Lender). At the time of submission of such written request, Borrower
Parties shall provide to Lender a work fee in the amount of $25,000.00 (the
"Substitution Work Fee");
(viii) Borrower Parties must provide the same scope and quality of due
diligence materials in connection with Lender's consideration of the
proposed Substitute Property as provided in connection with Lender's
underwriting and due diligence associated with the applicable Property for
which substitute collateral is being provided (including title, survey,
property condition, environmental and seismic reports, evidence of zoning
compliance, evidence of insurance and tenant estoppels) and any additional
materials then required as a result of changes to Lender's standard
underwriting or due diligence processes;
(ix) Lender must approve, in the exercise of its reasonable
discretion, all aspects of the proposed substitute collateral (the
"Substitute Property"), including such factors as value, age, cash flow,
quality, property condition, location, tenancy and other factors then
included in Lender's underwriting criteria;
(x) If requested by Lender in its reasonable discretion as a condition
to its approval of any Substitute Property, Lender and Borrower shall have
amended and restated the Allocated Loan Amounts for the Substitute Property
and each remaining Property within the Portfolio;
(xi) If approved, Lender shall receive a collateral substitution fee
in an amount equal to $25,000.00, payable concurrently with the
consummation of the Collateral Substitution; and
(xii) Lender shall have confirmed in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment, that no Property remaining within the Portfolio will, following
the consummation of the Collateral Substitution, be adversely affected by
such Collateral Substitution because such remaining Property relied on the
Property to be released for compliance with all Legal Requirements
(including zoning, subdivision, shared parking, utilities, and/or access).
(b) Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse Lender for all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the proposed Collateral
Substitution, including reasonable outside counsel fees and expenses, regardless
of whether the Collateral Substitution is approved by Lender. Payment of costs
and expenses must be tendered upon the earlier of consummation of the Collateral
Substitution or within the Demand Period. The Substitution Work Fee shall be
applied to reimburse Lender for its costs and expenses (with any excess after
full payment of all of Lender's costs and expenses being applied to the
collateral substitution fee of $25,000 or returned to Borrower Parties), but the
Substitution Work Fee shall not be deemed to be a cap or limitation on the
obligation of Borrower to reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses incurred
by Lender under this Section 7.16, regardless of whether such amounts exceed the
Substitution Work Fee and/or Lender, in the exercise of its judgment, does not
approve the requested Collateral Substitution.
(c) If a proposed Collateral Substitution is approved by Lender, Borrower
Parties shall, at their sole cost, execute and/or deliver: (i) all documents
reasonably required by Lender, which documentation shall be in form comparable
to the Loan Documents executed as of the date hereof and which shall include a
modification and/or reaffirmation agreement covering the existing Loan
Documents, a mortgage, deed of trust or other customary security instrument, an
assignment of leases and rents, an assignment of property documents, an
assignment of management agreement and subordination of management fees, an
environmental indemnity agreement, a closing affidavit and Uniform Commercial
Code financing statements; (ii) an ALTA (or equivalent) mortgagee title policy
38
for the Substitute Property, such title policy to be in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable discretion; (iii) evidence of authority
and entity existence; (iv) Uniform Commercial Code, judgment and bankruptcy
searches; (v) opinions of counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender on such
matters as Lender shall reasonably require; (vi) evidence of insurance as
required by Section 3.1 for the Substitute Property; and (vii) such other
documents or items as Lender shall reasonably require in order to effectuate the
Collateral Substitution.
(d) Upon approval of the proposed Collateral Substitution and satisfaction
of the terms and conditions specified in this Section 7.16, Lender shall execute
and deliver to Borrower Parties a partial release (in recordable form) of the
lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents with respect to the Property
for which substitute collateral is being provided. Following the consummation of
the Collateral Substitution, the Substitute Property shall be considered and
deemed to be a "Property" and included within the "Portfolio" for all purposes
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 7.17. EXCESS COLLATERAL.
(a) Lender acknowledges that, as a result of Borrower's inability to
complete certain parcel splits in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements
prior to the Funding Date, certain portions of certain Properties (as more
particularly described on Schedule 2, collectively, the "Excess Collateral")
include Land and Improvements and other Collateral which is encumbered by the
lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents solely because such Excess
Collateral is included within the same tax parcel or lot of record as the
portions of such Properties that are intended to constitute Collateral
hereunder. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 7.17, Lender
agrees to execute and deliver to Borrower a partial release instrument (in
recordable form) of the lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents as to
any portion of such Excess Collateral (each, an "Excess Collateral Release"),
provided that in connection with each such Excess Collateral Release, each and
every one of the following conditions are satisfied (to be determined by Lender
in the exercise of its reasonable judgment):
(i) As of the date Lender issues such Excess Collateral Release, no
monetary Potential Default (which solely for the purposes of this
provisions means a failure to make a payment of a liquidated sum of money
on the due date thereof but for which the applicable grace period has yet
to expire) then exists, and no Event of Default shall exist;
(ii) Borrower shall have submitted a written request for such Excess
Collateral Release no less than thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated
issuance thereof, such request (A) identifying the portion of the Property
subject to such requested Excess Collateral Release, (B) to include an
approved site or subdivision plan delineating the portion of the Property
subject to such requested Excess Collateral Release and the portion of the
Property to remain within the Portfolio, (C) all necessary easements and
other agreements preserving all necessary rights associated with the
Property to remain within the Portfolio, and (D) containing all other
information required hereunder. Such written request shall also include a
certificate in form reasonably acceptable to Lender from an Authorized
Representative of Borrower certifying that: (1) in connection with any
subdivision of the applicable Property necessary to accommodate the subject
Excess Collateral Release, Borrower Parties have complied with all Legal
Requirements and obtained all approvals required under any Leases,
Permitted Encumbrances, or other contracts or agreements applicable to such
Property (said certification to include copies of all such approvals
required pursuant to Legal Requirements, Leases, Permitted Encumbrances or
other contracts or agreements applicable to such Property); (2) that the
requested Excess Collateral Release does not violate any of the provisions
of Leases, Permitted Encumbrances, or other contracts or agreements and
that the purchaser or transferee has assumed all of Borrower Parties'
obligations, if any, relating to the portion of such Property subject to
the Excess Collateral Release under such Leases, Permitted Encumbrances, or
other contracts or agreements and Borrower Parties have been released from
the payment or performance of any obligations thereunder thereafter
arising; (3) that any subdivision necessary for the requested Excess
Collateral Release shall not materially and adversely affect the utility,
access, driveways, parking, drainage flows, operation or any other use of
the remaining portion of the affected Property and the Improvements thereon
in conformance with all Legal Requirements; and (4) no Tenants at the
remaining portion of the affected Property will be relocated to the portion
of such Property subject to the Excess Collateral Release (but the
foregoing prohibition on the relocation of any Tenant shall not prohibit
any Tenant from expanding into all or any portion of such Property subject
to the Excess Collateral Release);
39
(iii) Concurrently with Lender's execution and delivery of each Excess
Collateral Release, Lender must receive payment of all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such Excess Collateral
Release, including reasonable outside counsel attorneys' fees and expenses;
and
(iv) Lender shall have confirmed in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment, that no Property remaining within the Portfolio will, following
the issuance of the requested Excess Collateral Release, be adversely
affected by such partial release because such remaining Property relied on
the Property to be released for compliance with all Legal Requirements
(including zoning, subdivision, shared parking, utilities and/or access).
(b) Upon approval of a requested Excess Collateral Release and satisfaction
of the terms and conditions specified in this Section 7.17, Lender shall execute
and deliver to Borrower Parties the Excess Collateral Release.

any Borrower Party or any Property which seeks liquidation, reorganization

of the applicable cure period will not, in the reasonable estimation of
Lender, cause a material impairment to the value, use, utility, or

cure period will not, in the reasonable estimation of Lender, expose Lender
to any fines or penalties (whether civil or criminal), (D) any such failure
cannot reasonably be cured within the thirty (30) day cure period, and (E)
the applicable Borrower Party shall have commenced a reasonable cure for
such Potential Default within the thirty (30) day cure period and
thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, then the
thirty (30) day cure period shall be extended for so long as it shall be
reasonably necessary for the applicable Borrower Party, in the exercise of
due diligence, to cure such Potential Default (Borrower Parties agreeing
that they shall bear the burden of proof before any court, arbitrator or
other trier of fact in connection with establishing the reasonableness of
any cure or extended cure period and/or that Lender is acting in a
commercially unreasonable manner if Lender makes a determination adverse to
such Borrower Party under subsections (B) or (C) of this subparagraph (u));
provided, further, that in no event shall the cure period available under
this subparagraph (u) exceed ninety (90) days in the aggregate.
SECTION 8.2. REMEDIES.
(a) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, interest shall
automatically begin to accrue at the Default Rate, and at the option of Lender
(except in connection with any of the Events of Default described in Section
8.1(k) through (o), when acceleration is automatic), all Obligations shall
become immediately due and payable, and Lender may exercise all rights and
remedies under the Loan Documents and at law or in equity, all without written
notice and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor,
notice of intent to accelerate the maturity thereof, notice of acceleration of
the maturity thereof, or any other notice of default of any kind, all of which
are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower Party for itself and all other
Borrower Parties.
(b) Upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 8.1(k)
through (o), interest shall automatically begin to accrue at the Default Rate,
all Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable, and
Lender may exercise all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and at law
or in equity, all without written notice and without presentment, demand,
protest, notice of protest or dishonor, notice of intent to
42
accelerate the maturity thereof, notice of acceleration of the maturity thereof,
or any other notice of default of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly
waived by each Borrower Party for itself and all other Borrower Parties.
SECTION 8.3. LENDER'S RIGHT TO PERFORM THE OBLIGATIONS.
(a) If a Borrower Party shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment
or perform any act required by the Loan Documents and such failure constitutes
an Event of Default, then without notice to or demand upon any Borrower Party or
any other Person, and without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or
recourse Lender may have because of such Event of Default, Lender may (but shall
not be obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of
and at the expense of Borrower Parties, and shall have the right to enter upon
any Property for such purpose and to take all such action thereon and with
respect to such Property as it may deem necessary or appropriate.
(b) If Lender shall elect to pay any sum due with reference to any
Property, Lender may do so in reliance on any bill, statement or assessment
procured from the appropriate Governmental Authority or other issuer thereof
without inquiring into the accuracy or validity thereof. Similarly, in making
any payments to protect the security intended to be created by the Loan
Documents, Lender shall not be bound to inquire into the validity of any
apparent or threatened adverse title claim, Lien, encumbrance, claim or charge
before making an advance for the purpose of preventing or removing the same.
(c) Each Individual Borrower shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend
and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities,
claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, incurred or accruing by reason of any acts performed by Lender
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.3, including those arising from the
joint, concurrent, or comparative negligence of Lender, except as a result of
Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct. All sums paid by Lender
pursuant to this Section 8.3, and all other sums expended by Lender to which it
shall be entitled to be indemnified, shall be paid by Borrower to Lender prior
to expiration of the Demand Period. Any costs and expenses due and payable to
Lender pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall bear interest at the Default Rate from
the expiration of the Demand Period until payment in full is received by Lender,
and if Borrower fails to reimburse Lender within the Demand Period, then Lender
may, in its discretion, either (i) without additional notice to Borrower, add
such amounts to the principal balance of the Obligations to accrue interest at
the Contract Rate and be secured by the Loan Documents, or (ii) deem the failure
by Borrower to make timely reimbursement as an Event of Default and continue to
accrue interest at the Default Rate in connection with such unpaid amounts until
repayment in full.

SECTION 9.3. LIMITATION ON INTEREST. Under no circumstances shall the
aggregate amount paid or agreed to be paid as interest under the Loan Documents
exceed the highest lawful rate permitted under applicable usury law of the State
or of any state in which any Property is located, and the payment obligations of

under any circumstances, whether by reason of advancement or acceleration of the
unpaid principal balance of the Loan or otherwise, the aggregate amounts paid on
the Loan shall include amounts which by law are deemed interest and which would
exceed such highest lawful rate, Borrower Parties hereby stipulate that payment
and collection of such excess amounts shall have been and will be deemed to have
been the result of a mistake on the part of both Borrower Parties and Lender,
and Lender shall, at its option, either return such excess to Borrower Parties
or credit such excess against the principal balance of the Obligations then
outstanding (without application of any Applicable Prepayment Fee), in which
event any and all penalties of any kind under applicable law as a result of such
excess interest shall be inapplicable.
SECTION 9.4. INVALID PROVISIONS. If any provision of any Loan Document is
held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, then (i) such provision shall
automatically be deemed fully severable; (ii) the Loan Documents shall be
construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision
had never comprised a part thereof; (iii) the remaining provisions of the Loan
Documents shall remain in full effect and shall not be affected by the illegal,
invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom; and (iv) in
lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added
automatically as a part of such Loan Document a provision as similar in terms to
such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible so that said
substitute provision is legal, valid and enforceable.
SECTION 9.5. PAYMENT AND REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES.
(a) In addition to its reimbursement or payment obligations set forth
elsewhere in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, and prior to the
expiration of any Demand Period, Borrower Parties shall pay to Lender or, at
Lender's option, shall reimburse Lender, for all reasonable costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements and fees and expenses of
appraisers and environmental professionals) incurred by Lender in connection
with (i) intentionally omitted; (ii) intentionally omitted; (iii) the
negotiation, preparation,
44
execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or
other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other
documents or matters (including leasing matters) requested by Borrower Parties;
(iv) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable
fees and expenses of attorneys for providing to Lender all required legal
opinions, and other similar expenses incurred, in creating and perfecting the
Liens and security interest in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents; (v) enforcing or preserving any rights, in response to
third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any action or proceeding
or other litigation, in each case against, under or affecting a Borrower Party,
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Portfolio, or any other security
given for the Obligations; and (vi) enforcing any obligations of or collecting
any payments due from Borrower Parties under this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents or with respect to the Portfolio or in connection with any refinancing
or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the
nature of a "work-out" or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings.
(b) Any costs and expenses due and payable to Lender pursuant to this
Section 9.5 shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the
applicable Demand Period until Lender receives payment in full. If Borrower
Parties fail to reimburse Lender prior to the expiration of the applicable
Demand Period, then Lender may, in its discretion, either (i) without additional
notice to Borrower Parties, add such amounts to the principal balance of the
Obligations to accrue interest at the Contract Rate and be secured by the Loan
Documents, or (ii) deem the failure of Borrower Parties to make timely
reimbursement to be an Event of Default and continue to accrue interest at the
Default Rate in connection with such unpaid amounts until repayment in full.
SECTION 9.6. APPROVALS; THIRD PARTIES; CONDITIONS. All approval rights
retained or exercised by Lender with respect to Leases, contracts, plans,
studies and other matters shall not be deemed or construed as a determination
that Lender has passed on the adequacy thereof for any other purpose and may not
be relied upon by Borrower Parties or any other Person. This Agreement is for
the sole and exclusive use of Borrower Parties and Lender and may not be
enforced, nor relied upon, by any Person other than Borrower Parties and Lender.
All conditions of the obligations of Lender hereunder, including Lender's
discretionary right to make protective advances pursuant to Sections 8.3 or 9.5,
are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender, its successors and
assigns, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such
conditions or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make advances (if
any) in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of such conditions, and
no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of
such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part
by Lender at any time in Lender's discretion.
SECTION 9.7. LENDER NOT IN CONTROL; NO PARTNERSHIP. None of the covenants
or other provisions contained in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to,
give Lender the right or power to exercise control over the affairs or
management of a Borrower Party, the power of Lender being limited to the rights
to exercise the remedies referred to in the Loan Documents, at law or in equity.
The relationship between Borrower Parties and Lender is, and at all times shall
remain, solely that of debtor and creditor. No covenant or provision of the Loan
Documents is intended, nor shall it be deemed or construed, to create a
partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income
between Lender and Borrower Parties or to create any equity in the Portfolio in
Lender. Lender neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to
Borrower Parties or to any other Person with respect to the Portfolio or the
Loan, except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents, and notwithstanding
any other provision of the Loan Documents: (i) Lender is not, and shall not be
construed as, a partner, joint venturer, alter ego, manager, controlling person
or other business associate or participant of any kind of a Borrower Party or
its stockholders, members, or partners (as the case may be) and Lender does not
intend to ever assume such status; (ii) Lender shall in no event be liable for
any Debts, expenses or losses incurred or sustained by a Borrower Party; and
(iii) Lender shall not be deemed responsible for or a participant in any acts,
omissions or decisions of a Borrower Party or its stockholders, members, or
partners (as the case may be). Lender and Borrower Parties each disclaim any
intention to create any partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in
profits or income between Lender and a Borrower Party, or to create equity in
the Portfolio in Lender, or any sharing of liabilities, losses, costs or
expenses.
SECTION 9.8. TIME OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence with respect
to the performance of each Borrower Parties' obligations under the Loan
Documents.
45
SECTION 9.9. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of Lender, Borrower Parties and their respective
successors and assigns, provided that no Borrower Party shall, without the prior
written consent of Lender (which may be granted or withheld in Lender's
discretion) or except as expressly permitted pursuant to Section 7.1, assign any
rights, duties or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.
SECTION 9.10. SERVICING, TRANSFERS, ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS.
(a) At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer (the
"Servicer") selected by Lender from time to time and Lender may delegate all or
any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to the Servicer pursuant to a servicing agreement between Lender and
Servicer. Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of costs and expenses as
and to the same extent (but without duplication) as Lender is entitled thereto
under the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
provided that Borrower Parties shall not be obligated to pay any servicing fee
payable to the Servicer by Lender. Upon notice thereof from Lender, Servicer
shall have the right to exercise all rights of Lender and enforce all
obligations of Borrower Parties pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement,
the Note and the other Loan Documents. Provided Borrower Parties shall have been
given notice of Servicer's address by Lender, Borrower Parties shall deliver to
Servicer duplicate originals of all notices and other instruments which Borrower
Parties may or shall be required to deliver to Lender pursuant to this
Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents (and no delivery of such
notices or other instruments by Borrower Parties shall be of any force or effect
unless delivered to Lender and Servicer as provided above).
(b) Lender may at any time sell, transfer or assign the Note, this
Agreement, the Mortgage, and the other Loan Documents, and any or all servicing
rights with respect thereto or grant participations therein or issue mortgage
pass-through certificates, provided that Lender shall remain as the "lead"
lender and primary contact for all required consents and approvals under the
Loan Documents. Lender may forward to any present, future or prospective
purchaser, assignee, servicer, participant or investor (each, a "Transferee"),
all documents and information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire
relating to any Borrower Party or the Portfolio, whether furnished by a Borrower
Party, any Property Manager or any other Person, as Lender determines necessary
or desirable; provided that Lender receives a reasonable undertaking from the
applicable Transferee to maintain the confidential nature (if any) of such
information. Each Borrower Party shall cooperate with Lender in connection with
any transfer made pursuant to this Section 9.10, including the delivery of an
estoppel certificate and such other documents as may be reasonably requested by
Lender. Each Borrower Party shall also furnish, and hereby consents to Lender
furnishing to such Transferee, any and all current or updated information
concerning its financial condition and any and all information concerning the
Portfolio as may be requested by Lender or any Transferee; provided that Lender
receives a reasonable undertaking from the applicable Transferee to maintain the
confidential nature (if any) of such information. No exercise by Lender of any
transfer rights pursuant hereto shall operate to release or diminish the duties,
obligations or liabilities of any Borrower Party under this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents.
(c) Without in any way limiting Lender's other rights hereunder, Lender
shall have the right, in its discretion at any time after the Funding Date, to
require Borrower Parties to split the Loan into one or more loans secured by the
Portfolio (individually, a "Split Loan" and collectively, the "Split Loans"),
provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of all notes evidencing the
Split Loans shall equal the outstanding principal balance of the Loan
immediately prior to the creation of such split notes, (ii) the aggregate debt
service payments on the Split Loans shall on the date created equal the debt
service payment which was due under the Loan immediately prior to the creation
of such Split Loans, and (iii) the other terms and provisions of the documents
evidencing and/or securing the Split Loans shall be substantially similar in
form and substance to the Loan Documents. Borrower Parties, at no cost or
expense to it, shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order
to establish the Split Loans and shall execute and deliver such documents as
shall be reasonably required by Lender in connection therewith, all in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, including modified and severed
notes, mortgages and other security documents in such denominations as Lender
shall determine in its discretion, release documents and any and all documents
necessary to assign the Split Loans.
SECTION 9.11. REPLACEMENT DOCUMENTS. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an
officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note
or any other document(s) which is not of public record and, in the
46
case of any such destruction or mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of
the Note or other document(s), Borrower Parties shall issue, in lieu thereof, a
replacement Note or other document(s) in the same principal amount thereof and
otherwise of like tenor.
SECTION 9.12. RENEWAL, EXTENSION OR REARRANGEMENT. All provisions of the
Loan Documents shall apply with equal effect to each and all promissory notes
and amendments thereof hereinafter executed which in whole or in part represent
a renewal, extension, increase or rearrangement of the Loan.
SECTION 9.13. WAIVERS. No course of dealing on the part of Lender, its
officers, employees, attorneys, consultants or agents, nor any failure or delay
by Lender with respect to exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy of
Lender under any of the Loan Documents, shall operate as a waiver thereof.
SECTION 9.14. CUMULATIVE RIGHTS. All rights and remedies of Lender under
the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall be cumulative, and the exercise or
partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of
any other right or remedy.
SECTION 9.15. EXHIBITS AND SCHEDULES. The exhibits and schedules attached
to this Agreement are incorporated herein and shall be considered a part of this
Agreement for the purposes stated herein.
SECTION 9.16. TITLES OF ARTICLES, SECTIONS AND SUBSECTIONS. All titles or
headings to articles, sections, subsections or other divisions of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents or the exhibits hereto and thereto, are only for
the convenience of the parties and shall not be construed to have any effect or
meaning with respect to the other content of such articles, sections,
subsections or other divisions, such other content being controlling as to the
agreement between the parties hereto.
SECTION 9.17. PROMOTIONAL MATERIAL. Borrower Parties authorizes Lender to
issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials in
connection with Lender's own promotional and marketing activities, and
describing the Loan in general terms or in detail and Lender's participation in
the Loan. All references to Lender contained in any press release, advertisement
or promotional material issued by any Borrower Party must be approved in writing
by Lender in advance of issuance.
SECTION 9.18. SURVIVAL. All of the representations, warranties, covenants,
and indemnities made in this Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or
any other Loan Document shall survive the repayment in full of the Obligations
and the release of the Liens evidencing or securing the Loan, and shall survive
the transfer (by sale, foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or
otherwise) of any or all right, title and interest in and to all or any portion
of the Collateral to any party.
SECTION 9.19. GOVERNING LAW. The Loan Documents are being executed and
delivered, and are intended to be performed, in the State and the laws of the
State and of the United States of America shall govern the rights and duties of
the parties hereto and the validity, construction, enforcement and
interpretation of the Loan Documents, except to the extent otherwise specified
in any of the Loan Documents.
SECTION 9.20. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
embody the entire agreement and understanding between Lender and Borrower and
supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating
to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Accordingly, the Loan Documents may
not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral
agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the
parties.
SECTION 9.21. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in multiple
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which shall
constitute one document.
SECTION 9.22. OBLIGATIONS OF BORROWER, JOINT AND SEVERAL. If more than one
Person has executed this Agreement or any other Loan Document as "Borrower",
"Grantor" or "Assignor", the obligations of all such Persons hereunder or
thereunder shall be joint and several.
47
SECTION 9.23. WAIVER OF PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. NEITHER LENDER
NOR BORROWER PARTIES SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO THE OTHERS OR TO ANY
OTHER PERSON FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE
ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF THE LOAN OR THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY,
INCLUDING ANY BREACH OR OTHER DEFAULT BY ANY PARTY HERETO.
SECTION 9.24. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW,
EACH BORROWER PARTY AND LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY
WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON THE
TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF
CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTION OF
ANY PARTY OR ANY EXERCISE BY ANY PARTY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS UNDER THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THE LOAN OR THE COLLATERAL (INCLUDING ANY
ACTION TO RESCIND OR CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT, AND ANY CLAIM OR DEFENSE ASSERTING
THAT THIS AGREEMENT WAS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED OR IS OTHERWISE VOID OR VOIDABLE).
THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER TO ENTER THIS AGREEMENT.
ARTICLE 10.
LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY
SECTION 10.1. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY.
(a) Subject to the qualifications and exceptions set forth below, Lender
shall not enforce the liability and obligations of Borrower to perform and
observe its duties and obligations contained in the Note, this Agreement, the
Mortgage or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money
judgment shall be sought against any Borrower Party, provided that Lender may
bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other
appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon
its interest under the Note, any Guaranty, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the
other Loan Documents, or in the Collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan
Documents; provided, further, that, subject to the qualifications and exceptions
set forth below, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of its interest in the
Collateral, and Lender, by accepting the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage and
the other Loan Documents, agrees that subject to the qualifications and
exceptions set forth below, it shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency
judgment against Borrower, any other Borrower Party or any officer, director,
manager, member or partner of Borrower in any such action or proceeding under or
by reason of or under or in connection with the Note, this Agreement, the
Mortgage or the other Loan Documents.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents:
(i) the provisions of Section 10.1(a) shall not:

evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents;
(B) Impair the right of Lender to name any Borrower Party as a
party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under

judgment against any Borrower Party solely in order to satisfy
procedural requirements necessary to fully realize the security
granted by the Mortgage or under any other Loan Documents, or to
commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for
Lender to exercise its remedies against the Collateral; (and in no
event shall any such deficiency judgment issued solely in order to
satisfy procedural requirements be enforced against assets of any
Borrower Party other than the Collateral) and
(ii) Each Individual Borrower, jointly and severally, and jointly and
severally with Carveout Indemnitor pursuant to the Carveout Indemnity,
hereby agrees to indemnify and reimburse Lender, within the Demand Period
(and nothing set forth in this Section 10.1 shall constitute a waiver of
the right of Lender to enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower
Parties, by money judgment or otherwise), to the extent of any and all
liabilities, costs, losses (including any reduction in value of any
Property or any other Collateral or the loss of Lender's security interest
therein), damages, expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements, and court costs, if any), or claims suffered or incurred by
Lender by reason of or in connection with any of the following:

the Loan;
(B) Any material misrepresentation contained in any of the Loan
Documents or any report furnished pursuant to any of the Loan
Documents by any Borrower Party;

Operating Expenses (including in fulfilling the obligations of any
Individual Borrower as "landlord" under any Lease) and reasonable and
necessary capital expenditures or costs during the 12-month period
immediately preceding the occurrence of the Event of Default
triggering Lender's exercise of remedies; provided, however, that
Borrower shall not have liability under this subparagraph (D) to the
extent Operating Revenues generated during the 12-month period
immediately preceding the occurrence of the Event of Default
triggering Lender's exercise of remedies were not sufficient to pay in
full all such amounts and all Operating Revenues so received by any
Borrower Party were applied to pay such amounts to the full extent of
Operating Revenues so received;
(E) The misappropriation of any Net Proceeds or condemnation
awards by any Borrower Party;
(F) The failure of any Borrower Party to (x) properly apply any
and all security deposits held by any Borrower Party, (y) properly

Lender, any receiver or any Person purchasing any Property or any part
thereof at a foreclosure sale or upon the taking of possession of such
Property or any part thereof by Lender, such receiver or such other
Person; provided, however, that Borrower shall not have the liability

is limited or prohibited by applicable Legal Requirements or if
Borrower is operating under the express written direction of Lender;
49
(G) Intentional removal or destruction of property (without the
concurrent replacement thereof with property of at least equivalent
value and utility) constituting any material portion of the
Collateral, or any other intentional and material waste of any portion
of the Collateral, by any Borrower Party;
(H) Any Borrower Party contesting or in any way interfering with,
directly or indirectly, any foreclosure action, Uniform Commercial
Code sale and/or deed in lieu of foreclosure transaction commenced by
Lender or with any other enforcement of Lender's rights, power or
remedies under any of the Loan Documents (whether by making any
motion, bringing any counterclaim, claiming any defense, seeking any
injunction or other restraint, commencing any action or otherwise) in
connection with Lender's rights arising from an Event of Default;
provided, however, that if any Borrower Party obtains a final,
non-appealable order successfully contesting the exercise by Lender of
a right or remedy, then Borrower shall not have liability under this
subparagraph (H);
(I) Any Borrower Party (i) filing a voluntary petition under the
Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency
law, or (ii) making an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or
(J) Any Borrower Party (i) filing, or joining in the filing of,
an involuntary petition against any other Borrower Party under the
Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency
law, or (ii) soliciting or causing to be solicited petitioning
creditors for any involuntary petition against any other Borrower
Party, or (iii) filing an answer consenting to or otherwise
acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against
any other Borrower Party by any other Person under the Bankruptcy Code
or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law, or (iv)
voting adversely to Lender's interest in any proceeding under the
Bankruptcy Code or any other state or Federal bankruptcy or insolvency
law which involves any Borrower Party or any portion of the
Collateral, or (v) consenting to or acquiescing or joining in an
application for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee or
examiner for any Borrower Party or any portion of the Collateral
(unless such action is at the written request of Lender).

Parties consent, pursuant to a stipulation in form reasonably required by Lender
(to be executed by Borrower and any necessary Borrower Parties and delivered to
Lender within five (5) Business Days following Lender's request), to the
appointment of a receiver for any Property identified by Lender (the identity of
such receiver to be designated by Lender and approved by Borrower Parties, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld), and no Borrower Party seeks or
participates in the removal of said receiver (absent a material violation by
said receiver of the order appointing the receiver, in which case a substitute
receiver designated by Lender and approved by Borrower Parties, such approval
not to be unreasonably withheld, will be appointed) then Borrower shall not have
liability under this Subsection (b)(ii) solely as a result of any reduction in
value of such Property or any other Collateral during the period that Lender is
pursuing its rights and remedies as a result of an Event of Default.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents: (i) Lender shall not be deemed to have waived
any right which Lender may have under Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any
other provisions of the Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of
the Obligations or to require that all Collateral shall continue to secure all
of the Obligations owing to Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents; and
(ii) the Obligations shall be fully recourse to Borrower in the event any
Transfer occurs in violation of Section 7.1 (including the voluntary placement
of a Lien on all or any portion of the Collateral in violation of the Loan
Documents).

WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS

SECTION 3.1. TITLE TO COLLATERAL AND LIEN OF THIS INSTRUMENT. Grantor owns

Permitted Encumbrances. This Deed of Trust creates valid, enforceable first
priority liens and security interests against the Collateral.
SECTION 3.2. FIRST LIEN STATUS. Grantor shall preserve and protect the
first priority lien and security interest status of this Deed of Trust and the
other Loan Documents. If any lien or security interest other than the Permitted
Encumbrances is asserted against the Collateral, Grantor shall promptly, and at

other action so as to cause it to be released, or (ii) contest the same in
compliance with the requirements of the Loan Agreement (including the
requirement of providing a bond or other security satisfactory to Beneficiary).
3
SECTION 3.3. PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. Grantor shall pay and perform the
Obligations in full when they are required to be performed. Grantor hereby
irrevocably authorizes Beneficiary to apply any and all amounts received by
Beneficiary in repayment of amounts due under the Loan Documents first to
amounts which are not guaranteed pursuant to the terms of any guaranty and then
to amounts which are guaranteed pursuant to the terms of any guaranty. Grantor
hereby waives any and all rights it has or may have under Section 2822 of the
California Civil Code which provides that if a guarantor is "liable upon only a
portion of an obligation and the principal provides partial satisfaction of the
obligation, the principal may designate the portion of the obligation that is to
be satisfied."
SECTION 3.4. REPLACEMENT OF FIXTURES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY. Grantor shall
not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary (which may be granted or
withheld in Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), permit any of the
Fixtures or Personal Property to be removed at any time from the Land or
Improvements, unless the removed item is removed temporarily for maintenance and
repair or, if removed permanently, is obsolete and is replaced by an article of
equal or better suitability and value, owned by Grantor subject to the liens and
security interests of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, and free
and clear of any other lien or security interest except such as may be first
approved in writing by Beneficiary prior to acquisition by Grantor.
SECTION 3.5. MAINTENANCE OF RIGHTS OF WAY, EASEMENTS AND LICENSES. Grantor
shall maintain all rights of way, easements, grants, privileges, licenses,
certificates, permits, entitlements, and franchises necessary for the use of the
Collateral and will not, without the prior consent of Beneficiary (which may be
granted or withheld in Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), consent to
any public restriction (including any zoning ordinance) or private restriction
as to the use of the Collateral. Grantor shall comply with all restrictive
covenants affecting the Collateral, and all Legal Requirements, including zoning
ordinances, environmental laws and other public or private restrictions as to
the use of the Collateral.
SECTION 3.6. INSPECTION. Grantor shall permit Beneficiary and/or Trustee,
and their agents, representatives and employees, upon reasonable prior notice to
Grantor, to inspect the Collateral and conduct such environmental and
engineering studies as Beneficiary may require, provided that such inspections
and studies shall not materially interfere with the use and operation of the
Collateral. The costs relating to such activities shall be paid by Beneficiary
unless (i) Beneficiary has a good faith basis for suspecting that Grantor is not
in material compliance with its warranties, covenants and agreements relating to
the physical condition of the Collateral and/or compliance with laws (including
environmental laws), (ii) the examination of such books and records reveals that
financial information submitted to Beneficiary by Grantor or anyone on behalf of
Grantor is materially inaccurate, or (iii) an Event of Default exists (or is
discovered as a result of any such inspection or review), in which case the
reasonable third party fees and expenses relating to such activities shall be
paid by Grantor within the Demand Period.
SECTION 3.7. OTHER COVENANTS. All of the covenants in the Loan Agreement
are incorporated herein by reference and, together with covenants in this
Article 3 shall be covenants running with the Property. The covenants set forth
in the Loan Agreement include, among other provisions: (a) the prohibition
against the further sale, transfer or encumbering of any of the Collateral, (b)
the obligation to pay when due all taxes on the Collateral or assessed against
Beneficiary with respect to the Loan, (c) the right of Beneficiary to inspect

requirements (including environmental laws), (f) the obligation to maintain the
Collateral in good condition, and promptly repair any damage or casualty, and
(g) except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Agreement, the obligation of
Grantor to obtain Beneficiary's written consent prior to entering into,
modifying or taking other actions with respect to Leases.
SECTION 3.8. CONDEMNATION AWARDS AND INSURANCE PROCEEDS.
(a) CONDEMNATION AWARDS. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all awards and
compensation for any condemnation or other taking, or any purchase in lieu
thereof, and authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such awards and
compensation and to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, subject to
the terms of the Loan Agreement.
4
(b) INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all proceeds of any
insurance policies insuring against loss or damage to the Collateral. Grantor
authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such proceeds, to give proper
receipts and acquittances therefor, and authorizes and directs the issuer of
each of such insurance policies to make payment for all such losses directly to
Beneficiary, instead of to Grantor and Beneficiary jointly, subject to the terms
of the Loan Agreement.
ARTICLE 4.
DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE
SECTION 4.1. REMEDIES. If an Event of Default exists, Beneficiary may, at
Beneficiary's election and by or through Trustee or otherwise, exercise any or
all of the following rights, remedies and recourses:
(a) ACCELERATION. Declare the Obligations to be immediately due and
payable, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to
accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever
(each of which hereby is expressly waived by Grantor), whereupon the same shall
become immediately due and payable and, immediately upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of
the Note at the Default Rate.
(b) ENTRY ON COLLATERAL. Enter the Collateral and take exclusive possession
thereof and of all books, records and accounts relating thereto. If Grantor
remains in possession of the Collateral after an Event of Default and without
Beneficiary's written consent (to be issued or withheld in Beneficiary's sole
and absolute discretion), Beneficiary may invoke any legal remedies to
dispossess Grantor.
(c) OPERATION OF COLLATERAL. Hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or
otherwise use the Collateral upon such terms and conditions as Beneficiary may
deem reasonable under the circumstances (including making such repairs,
alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to
time, as Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable), and apply all Rents and
other amounts collected by Beneficiary or, as applicable, Trustee in connection
therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7.
(d) FORECLOSURE AND SALE. To the greatest extent permitted by law, sell or
offer for sale the Collateral in such portions, order and parcels as Beneficiary
may determine, with or without having first taken possession of same, to the
highest bidder for cash at public auction. Such sale shall be made in accordance
with the laws of the State of California relating to the sale of real estate or
by Article 9 of the UCC relating to the sale of collateral after default by a
debtor (as such laws now exist or may be hereafter amended or succeeded), or by
any other present or subsequent articles or enactments relating to same. With
respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Grantor agrees that
five (5) days' prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. At
any such sale (i) whether made under the power herein contained, the UCC, any
other legal requirement or by virtue of any judicial proceedings or any other
legal right, remedy or recourse, it shall not be necessary for Trustee to be
physically present at or to have constructive possession of the Collateral
(Grantor shall deliver to Trustee any portion of the Collateral not actually or
constructively possessed by Trustee immediately upon demand by Trustee), and the
title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the
purchaser thereof as completely as if Trustee had been actually present and
delivered to purchaser at such sale, (ii) each instrument of conveyance executed
by Trustee shall contain a general warranty of title binding upon Grantor, (iii)
each recital contained in any instrument of conveyance made by Trustee shall
conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters recited therein,
including nonpayment of the Obligations, advertisement and conduct of such sale
in the manner provided herein and otherwise by law, and appointment of any
successor Trustee hereunder, (iv) any prerequisites to the validity of such sale
shall be conclusively presumed to have been performed, (v) the receipt of
Trustee or other party making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the
purchaser or purchasers for its or their purchase money and no such purchaser or
purchasers, or its or their assigns or personal representatives, shall
thereafter be obligated to see to the application of such purchase money or be
in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication thereof,
and (vi) to the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor shall be completely and
irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity
of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the
property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity
against Grantor, and against all other persons claiming or to claim the property
sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Grantor. Beneficiary
5
may be a purchaser at such sale and if Beneficiary is the highest bidder, may
credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to
Beneficiary against the Obligations in lieu of paying cash. Any proceeds of any
such sale or disposition shall not cure any Event of Default or reinstate any
Obligation for purposes of 2924c of the California Civil Code.
(e) RECEIVER. Make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for,
and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to
Grantor or regard to the adequacy of the Collateral for the repayment of the
Obligations, the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral, and Grantor
irrevocably consents to such appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the
usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power
to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Collateral upon such terms as may be
approved by the court, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the
provisions of Section 4.7.
(f) OTHER. Exercise all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under
the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity (including an
action for specific performance of any covenant contained in the Loan Documents,
or a judgment on the Note either before, during or after any proceeding to
enforce this Deed of Trust).
SECTION 4.2. SEPARATE SALES. The Collateral may be sold in one or more
parcels and in such manner and order as Trustee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may elect; and the right of sale arising out of any Event of Default
shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.
SECTION 4.3. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE, CONCURRENT AND NONEXCLUSIVE. Beneficiary
shall have all rights, remedies and recourses granted hereunder and in the Loan
Documents and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights (a)
shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively
or concurrently against Grantor or others obligated under the Note and the other
Loan Documents, or against the Collateral, or against any one or more of them,
at the sole discretion of Beneficiary, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion
therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall
not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy or
recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No action by
Beneficiary or Trustee in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses
hereunder, under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be
deemed to cure any Event of Default. To the extent permitted by law, Grantor
hereby waives and releases all procedural errors, defects and imperfections in
any proceedings instituted by Trustee or Beneficiary under the terms of this
Deed of Trust, the Note and the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 4.4. RELEASE OF AND RESORT TO COLLATERAL. Beneficiary may release,
regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or
consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Collateral, any part of the
Collateral without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting,
subordinating or releasing the lien or security interests created in or
evidenced by the Loan Documents or their stature as a first and prior lien and
security interest in and to the Collateral. For payment of the Obligations,
Beneficiary may resort to any other security in such order and manner as
Beneficiary may elect.
SECTION 4.5. WAIVER OF REDEMPTION, NOTICE AND MARSHALLING OF ASSETS. To the
fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Grantor by virtue of
any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial decision
exempting the Collateral from attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing
for any appraisement, valuation, stay of execution, exemption from civil
process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of any
Event of Default or of Beneficiary's or, as applicable, Trustee's election to
exercise or its actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for
under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity, and (c) any right to a
marshalling of assets (including any rights provided by California Civil Code
Sections 2899 and 3433) or a sale in inverse order of alienation.
SECTION 4.6. DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDINGS. If Beneficiary shall have
proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan
Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any
reason, Beneficiary shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an
event, Grantor and Beneficiary shall be restored to their former positions with
respect to the Obligations, the Loan Documents, the Collateral and otherwise,
and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Beneficiary shall continue as
if the right,
6
remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or
abandonment shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right
of Beneficiary thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the
Loan Documents for such Event of Default.
SECTION 4.7. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of any sale of, and the
Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, operating, insuring, leasing,
management, operation or other use of the Collateral, shall be applied by
Beneficiary or Trustee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following
order unless otherwise required by applicable law:
(a) to the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the
Collateral and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the
same, including (1) trustee's and receiver's fees and expenses, (2) court costs,
(3) attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses, (4) costs of advertisement,
and (5) the payment of all ground rent, real estate taxes and assessments,
except any taxes, assessments, or other charges subject to which the Collateral
shall have been sold;
(b) to the payment of all amounts (including interest at the Default Rate),
other than the unpaid principal balance of the Note and accrued but unpaid
interest, which may be due to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents;
(c) to the payment and performance of the remainder of the Obligations in
such manner and order of preference as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may
determine; and
(d) the balance, if any, to the payment of the persons legally entitled
thereto.
SECTION 4.8. OCCUPANCY AFTER FORECLOSURE. The purchaser at any sale
pursuant to Section 4.1(d) shall become the legal owner of the Collateral. All
occupants of the Collateral shall, at the option of such purchaser, become
tenants of the purchaser at the sale and shall deliver possession thereof
immediately to the purchaser upon demand. It shall not be necessary for the
purchaser at said sale to bring any action for possession of the Collateral
other than the statutory action of forcible detainer in any court having
jurisdiction over the Collateral.
SECTION 4.9. ADDITIONAL ADVANCES AND DISBURSEMENTS; COSTS OF ENFORCEMENT.
(a) If Grantor shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform
any act required by the Loan Documents and such failure constitutes an Event of
Default, then without notice to or demand upon Grantor or any other Person, and
without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse Beneficiary may
have because of such Event of Default, Beneficiary may (but shall not be
obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at
the expense of Grantor, provided that any such action by or on behalf of
Beneficiary of such non-performance or breach shall not be deemed to cure any
such Event of Default. All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by
Beneficiary under this Section 4.9, or otherwise under this Deed of Trust or any
of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, shall be payable within the
Demand Period, and shall bear interest from the expiration of the Demand Period
to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the Default Rate, and
all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.
(b) Prior to the expiration of the applicable Demand Period, Grantor shall
pay, or at Beneficiary's option, reimburse Beneficiary and Trustee for, all
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of or incidental to
the perfection and enforcement of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan
Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Obligations or
any claim under this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, or for
defending or asserting the rights and claims of Beneficiary in respect thereof,
by litigation or otherwise. Such expenses shall include reasonable expenses
(including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel for Beneficiary)
incurred in connection with (i) the preservation and enforcement of
Beneficiary's liens and security interests under this Deed of Trust, (ii) the
protection, exercise or enforcement of Beneficiary's rights with respect to the
Property including Beneficiary's rights to (1) collect or take possession of the
Property and the proceeds thereof, (2) hold the Property, (3) prepare the
Property for sale or other disposition and (4) sell or otherwise dispose of the
Property, and (iii) the assertion, protection, exercise or enforcement of
Beneficiary's rights in any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code,
including the preparation, filing and prosecution of (1) proofs
7
of claim, (2) motions for relief from the automatic stay, (3) motions for
adequate protection, and (4) complaints, answers and other pleadings in
adversary proceedings by or against Beneficiary or relating in any way to the
Property. The duties and obligations of Beneficiary under this Section 4.9(b)
are in addition to, and not in lieu of, Beneficiary's duties and obligations
under Section 9.5 of the Loan Agreement.
SECTION 4.10. NO MORTGAGEE-IN-POSSESSION. Neither the enforcement of any of
the remedies under this Article 4, the assignment of the Leases and Rents under
Article 5, the security interests under Article 6, nor any other remedies
afforded to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall
cause Beneficiary or Trustee to be deemed or construed to be a
mortgagee-in-possession of the Collateral, to obligate Beneficiary or Trustee to
lease the Collateral or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any
expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever
under any of the Leases or otherwise.
ARTICLE 5.
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
SECTION 5.1. ASSIGNMENT. Grantor acknowledges and confirms that it has
executed and delivered to Beneficiary an Assignment of Leases and Rents of even
date (the "Assignment of Leases and Rents"), intending that such instrument
create a present, absolute assignment to Beneficiary of, among other things, the
Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents. Without limiting the intended benefits or
the remedies provided under the Assignment of Leases and Rents, Grantor hereby
assigns to Beneficiary, as further security for the Obligations, the Leases,
Lease Guaranties and Rents. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,
Beneficiary shall be entitled to exercise any or all of the remedies provided in
the Assignment of Leases and Rents and in Article 4 hereof, including the right
to have a receiver appointed. If any conflict or inconsistency exists between
the assignment of Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents in this Deed of Trust and
the absolute assignment of Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents in the Assignment
of Leases and Rents, the terms of the Assignment of Leases and Rents shall
control.
SECTION 5.2. NO MERGER OF ESTATES. So long as any part of the Obligations
remain unpaid and undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Collateral
shall not merge, but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the
union of such estates either in Grantor, Beneficiary, any lessee or any third
party by purchase or otherwise.
ARTICLE 6.
SECURITY AGREEMENT
SECTION 6.1. SECURITY AGREEMENT. This Deed of Trust shall constitute a
security agreement under Article 9 of the UCC in each applicable jurisdiction
with respect to the Personal Property, which shall be deemed to include any and
all fixtures and personal property included in the description of the Personal
Property, now owned or hereafter acquired by Grantor, which might otherwise be
deemed "personal property" and all accessions thereto and the proceeds thereof.
Grantor has granted and does hereby grant Beneficiary a security interest in the
Personal Property and in all additions and accessions thereto, renewals and
replacements thereof and all substitutions therefor and proceeds thereof for the
purpose of securing all Obligations now or hereafter secured by this Deed of
Trust. The following provisions relate to such security interest:
(a) The Personal Property includes all now existing or hereafter acquired
or arising equipment, inventory, accounts, chattel paper, instruments,
documents, deposit accounts, investment property, letter-of-credit rights,
commercial tort claims, supporting obligations and general intangibles now or
hereafter used or procured for use in the Collateral or otherwise relating to
the Collateral. If Grantor shall at any time acquire a commercial tort claim
relating to the Collateral, Grantor shall promptly notify Beneficiary in a
writing signed by Grantor of the brief details thereof and grant to Beneficiary
a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof.
(b) Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes Beneficiary at any time and from
time to time to file in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any initial
financing statements and amendments thereto that (a)
8
indicate the collateral as "all assets used or procured for use or otherwise
relating to" the Collateral or words of similar effect, or as being of equal or
lesser scope or in greater detail, and to indicate the Collateral as defined, or
in a manner consistent with the term as defined, in this Deed of Trust and (b)
contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC of any
such filing office for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any
initial financing statement or amendment, including whether Grantor is an
organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification
number issued to Grantor. Grantor agrees to provide any such information to
Beneficiary promptly upon request. Grantor also ratifies its authorization for
Beneficiary to have filed in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any like
initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date
hereof. Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary, from time to time, within the Demand
Period, any and all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection
with the filing of any such initial financing statements and amendments,
including attorneys' fees and all disbursements. Such costs and expenses shall
bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand Period until
the date repaid by Grantor, and such costs and expenses, together with such
interest, shall be part of the Obligations and shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.
(c) Grantor shall any time and from time to time take such steps as
Beneficiary may reasonably request for Beneficiary to obtain "control" of any
Personal Property for which control is a permitted or required method to
perfect, or to insure priority of, the security interest in such Personal
Property granted herein.
(d) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Beneficiary shall have the
rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC as well as all other rights
and remedies available at law or in equity or under this Deed of Trust.
(e) It is intended by Grantor and Beneficiary that this Deed of Trust be
effective as a financing statement filed with the applicable real estate records
as a fixture filing covering the Collateral. A description of the Land which
relates to the Personal Property is set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.
Grantor is the record owner of the Land. Grantor is a Delaware limited
partnership with an organizational identification number, issued by the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, of 2500587.
(f) Terms defined in the UCC and not otherwise defined in this Deed of
Trust shall have the same meanings in this Article as are set forth in the UCC.
In the event that a term is used in Article 9 of the UCC and also in another
Article of the UCC, the term used in this Article is that used in Article 9. The
term "control," as used in this Article, has the meaning given in Sections
9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of Article 9, as applicable.
ARTICLE 7.
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

the performance of Trustee's duties. Grantor shall, from time to time, pay the
compensation due to Trustee hereunder and reimburse Trustee for, and indemnify,
defend and save Trustee harmless against, all liability and reasonable expenses
which may be incurred by Trustee in the performance of Trustee's duties,
including those arising from the joint, concurrent, or comparative negligence of
Trustee; however, Grantor shall not be liable under such indemnification to the

or willful misconduct hereunder. Grantor's obligations under this Section 7.1
shall not be reduced or impaired by principles of comparative or contributory
negligence.
SECTION 7.2. RETENTION OF MONEY. All moneys received by Trustee shall,
until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for

other moneys (except to the extent required by law), and Trustee shall be under
no liability for interest on any moneys received by Trustee hereunder.
9
SECTION 7.3. SUCCESSOR TRUSTEES. If Trustee or any successor Trustee shall
die, resign or become disqualified from acting in the execution of this trust,
or Beneficiary shall desire to appoint a substitute Trustee, Beneficiary shall
have full power to appoint one or more substitute Trustees and, if preferred,
several substitute Trustees in succession who shall succeed to all the estates,
rights, powers and duties of Trustee. Such appointment may be executed by any
authorized agent of Beneficiary, and as so executed, such appointment shall be
conclusively presumed to be executed with authority, valid and sufficient,
without further proof of any action.
SECTION 7.4. PERFECTION OF APPOINTMENT. Should any deed, conveyance or
instrument of any nature be required from Grantor by any successor Trustee to
more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to such successor Trustee such
estates, rights, powers and duties, then, upon request by such Trustee, all such
deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made, executed, acknowledged and
delivered and shall be caused to be recorded and/or filed by Grantor.
SECTION 7.5. TRUSTEE LIABILITY. In no event or circumstance shall Trustee
or any substitute Trustee hereunder be personally liable under or as a result of

interest in the Property shall be deemed to have notice of, and be bound by, the

prior written consent of Beneficiary (which may be granted or withheld in
Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), assign any rights, duties or
obligations hereunder.
SECTION 8.5. NO WAIVER. Any failure by Trustee or Beneficiary to insist

to extinguish, extend or renew any indebtedness against the Collateral, then

such former rights, liens and interests, if any, are not waived, but are

reconvey the Collateral to Grantor.

to the full extent that it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any time
insist upon or plead or in any way take advantage of any appraisement,
valuation, stay, marshalling of assets, extension, redemption or moratorium law

successors and assigns to WARRANT AND FOREVER DEFEND the title to the Collateral
unto Trustee.
ARTICLE 11.
WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS
Grantor warrants, represents and covenants to Beneficiary as follows:
SECTION 11.1. TITLE TO COLLATERAL AND LIEN OF THIS INSTRUMENT. Grantor owns
the Collateral free and clear of any liens, claims or interests, except the
Permitted Encumbrances. This Deed of Trust creates valid, enforceable first
priority liens and security interests against the Collateral.
SECTION 11.2. FIRST LIEN STATUS. Grantor shall preserve and protect the
first priority lien and security interest status of this Deed of Trust and the
other Loan Documents. If any lien or security interest other than the Permitted
Encumbrances is asserted against the Collateral, Grantor shall promptly, and at
its expense, give Beneficiary a detailed written notice of such lien or security
interest (including origin, amount and such other information as Beneficiary may
request), and shall either (i) pay the underlying claim in full or take such
other action so as to cause it to be released, or (ii) contest the same in
compliance with the requirements of the Loan Agreement (including the
requirement of providing a bond or other security satisfactory to Beneficiary).
3
SECTION 11.3. PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. Grantor shall pay and perform the
Obligations in full when they are required to be performed. Grantor hereby
irrevocably authorizes Beneficiary to apply any and all amounts received by
Beneficiary in repayment of amounts due under the Loan Documents first to
amounts which are not guaranteed pursuant to the terms of any guaranty and then
to amounts which are guaranteed pursuant to the terms of any guaranty. Grantor
hereby waives any and all rights it has or may have under Section 2822 of the
California Civil Code which provides that if a guarantor is "liable upon only a
portion of an obligation and the principal provides partial satisfaction of the
obligation, the principal may designate the portion of the obligation that is to
be satisfied."
SECTION 11.4. REPLACEMENT OF FIXTURES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY. Grantor shall
not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary (which may be granted or
withheld in Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), permit any of the
Fixtures or Personal Property to be removed at any time from the Land or
Improvements, unless the removed item is removed temporarily for maintenance and
repair or, if removed permanently, is obsolete and is replaced by an article of
equal or better suitability and value, owned by Grantor subject to the liens and
security interests of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, and free
and clear of any other lien or security interest except such as may be first
approved in writing by Beneficiary prior to acquisition by Grantor.
SECTION 11.5. MAINTENANCE OF RIGHTS OF WAY, EASEMENTS AND LICENSES. Grantor
shall maintain all rights of way, easements, grants, privileges, licenses,
certificates, permits, entitlements, and franchises necessary for the use of the
Collateral and will not, without the prior consent of Beneficiary (which may be
granted or withheld in Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), consent to
any public restriction (including any zoning ordinance) or private restriction
as to the use of the Collateral. Grantor shall comply with all restrictive
covenants affecting the Collateral, and all Legal Requirements, including zoning
ordinances, environmental laws and other public or private restrictions as to
the use of the Collateral.
SECTION 11.6. INSPECTION. Grantor shall permit Beneficiary and/or Trustee,
and their agents, representatives and employees, upon reasonable prior notice to
Grantor, to inspect the Collateral and conduct such environmental and
engineering studies as Beneficiary may require, provided that such inspections
and studies shall not materially interfere with the use and operation of the
Collateral. The costs relating to such activities shall be paid by Beneficiary
unless (i) Beneficiary has a good faith basis for suspecting that Grantor is not
in material compliance with its warranties, covenants and agreements relating to
the physical condition of the Collateral and/or compliance with laws (including
environmental laws), (ii) the examination of such books and records reveals that
financial information submitted to Beneficiary by Grantor or anyone on behalf of
Grantor is materially inaccurate, or (iii) an Event of Default exists (or is
discovered as a result of any such inspection or review), in which case the
reasonable third party fees and expenses relating to such activities shall be
paid by Grantor within the Demand Period.
SECTION 11.7. OTHER COVENANTS. All of the covenants in the Loan Agreement
are incorporated herein by reference and, together with covenants in this
Article 3 shall be covenants running with the Property. The covenants set forth
in the Loan Agreement include, among other provisions: (a) the prohibition
against the further sale, transfer or encumbering of any of the Collateral, (b)
the obligation to pay when due all taxes on the Collateral or assessed against
Beneficiary with respect to the Loan, (c) the right of Beneficiary to inspect
the Collateral, (d) the obligation to keep the Collateral insured in accordance

requirements (including environmental laws), (f) the obligation to maintain the
Collateral in good condition, and promptly repair any damage or casualty, and
(g) except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Agreement, the obligation of
Grantor to obtain Beneficiary's written consent prior to entering into,
modifying or taking other actions with respect to Leases.
SECTION 11.8. CONDEMNATION AWARDS AND INSURANCE PROCEEDS.
(a) CONDEMNATION AWARDS. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all awards and
compensation for any condemnation or other taking, or any purchase in lieu
thereof, and authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such awards and
compensation and to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, subject to
the terms of the Loan Agreement.
4
(b) INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all proceeds of any
insurance policies insuring against loss or damage to the Collateral. Grantor
authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such proceeds, to give proper
receipts and acquittances therefor, and authorizes and directs the issuer of
each of such insurance policies to make payment for all such losses directly to
Beneficiary, instead of to Grantor and Beneficiary jointly, subject to the terms
of the Loan Agreement.
ARTICLE 12.
DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE
SECTION 12.1. REMEDIES. If an Event of Default exists, Beneficiary may, at
Beneficiary's election and by or through Trustee or otherwise, exercise any or
all of the following rights, remedies and recourses:
(a) ACCELERATION. Declare the Obligations to be immediately due and
payable, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to
accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever
(each of which hereby is expressly waived by Grantor), whereupon the same shall
become immediately due and payable and, immediately upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of
the Note at the Default Rate.
(b) ENTRY ON COLLATERAL. Enter the Collateral and take exclusive possession
thereof and of all books, records and accounts relating thereto. If Grantor
remains in possession of the Collateral after an Event of Default and without
Beneficiary's written consent (to be issued or withheld in Beneficiary's sole
and absolute discretion), Beneficiary may invoke any legal remedies to
dispossess Grantor.
(c) OPERATION OF COLLATERAL. Hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or
otherwise use the Collateral upon such terms and conditions as Beneficiary may
deem reasonable under the circumstances (including making such repairs,
alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to
time, as Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable), and apply all Rents and
other amounts collected by Beneficiary or, as applicable, Trustee in connection
therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7.
(d) FORECLOSURE AND SALE. To the greatest extent permitted by law, sell or
offer for sale the Collateral in such portions, order and parcels as Beneficiary
may determine, with or without having first taken possession of same, to the
highest bidder for cash at public auction. Such sale shall be made in accordance
with the laws of the State of California relating to the sale of real estate or
by Article 9 of the UCC relating to the sale of collateral after default by a
debtor (as such laws now exist or may be hereafter amended or succeeded), or by
any other present or subsequent articles or enactments relating to same. With
respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Grantor agrees that
five (5) days' prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. At
any such sale (i) whether made under the power herein contained, the UCC, any
other legal requirement or by virtue of any judicial proceedings or any other
legal right, remedy or recourse, it shall not be necessary for Trustee to be
physically present at or to have constructive possession of the Collateral
(Grantor shall deliver to Trustee any portion of the Collateral not actually or
constructively possessed by Trustee immediately upon demand by Trustee), and the
title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the
purchaser thereof as completely as if Trustee had been actually present and
delivered to purchaser at such sale, (ii) each instrument of conveyance executed
by Trustee shall contain a general warranty of title binding upon Grantor, (iii)
each recital contained in any instrument of conveyance made by Trustee shall
conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters recited therein,
including nonpayment of the Obligations, advertisement and conduct of such sale
in the manner provided herein and otherwise by law, and appointment of any
successor Trustee hereunder, (iv) any prerequisites to the validity of such sale
shall be conclusively presumed to have been performed, (v) the receipt of
Trustee or other party making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the
purchaser or purchasers for its or their purchase money and no such purchaser or
purchasers, or its or their assigns or personal representatives, shall
thereafter be obligated to see to the application of such purchase money or be
in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication thereof,
and (vi) to the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor shall be completely and
irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity
of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the
property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity
against Grantor, and against all other persons claiming or to claim the property
sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Grantor. Beneficiary
5
may be a purchaser at such sale and if Beneficiary is the highest bidder, may
credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to
Beneficiary against the Obligations in lieu of paying cash. Any proceeds of any
such sale or disposition shall not cure any Event of Default or reinstate any
Obligation for purposes of 2924c of the California Civil Code.
(e) RECEIVER. Make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for,
and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to
Grantor or regard to the adequacy of the Collateral for the repayment of the
Obligations, the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral, and Grantor
irrevocably consents to such appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the
usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power
to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Collateral upon such terms as may be
approved by the court, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the
provisions of Section 4.7.
(f) OTHER. Exercise all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under
the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity (including an
action for specific performance of any covenant contained in the Loan Documents,
or a judgment on the Note either before, during or after any proceeding to
enforce this Deed of Trust).
SECTION 12.2. SEPARATE SALES. The Collateral may be sold in one or more
parcels and in such manner and order as Trustee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may elect; and the right of sale arising out of any Event of Default
shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.
SECTION 12.3. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE, CONCURRENT AND NONEXCLUSIVE. Beneficiary
shall have all rights, remedies and recourses granted hereunder and in the Loan
Documents and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights (a)
shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively
or concurrently against Grantor or others obligated under the Note and the other
Loan Documents, or against the Collateral, or against any one or more of them,
at the sole discretion of Beneficiary, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion
therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall
not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy or
recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No action by
Beneficiary or Trustee in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses
hereunder, under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be
deemed to cure any Event of Default. To the extent permitted by law, Grantor
hereby waives and releases all procedural errors, defects and imperfections in
any proceedings instituted by Trustee or Beneficiary under the terms of this
Deed of Trust, the Note and the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 12.4. RELEASE OF AND RESORT TO COLLATERAL. Beneficiary may release,
regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or
consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Collateral, any part of the
Collateral without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting,
subordinating or releasing the lien or security interests created in or
evidenced by the Loan Documents or their stature as a first and prior lien and
security interest in and to the Collateral. For payment of the Obligations,
Beneficiary may resort to any other security in such order and manner as
Beneficiary may elect.
SECTION 12.5. WAIVER OF REDEMPTION, NOTICE AND MARSHALLING OF ASSETS. To
the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Grantor
by virtue of any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial
decision exempting the Collateral from attachment, levy or sale on execution or
providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay of execution, exemption from
civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of
any Event of Default or of Beneficiary's or, as applicable, Trustee's election
to exercise or its actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for
under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity, and (c) any right to a
marshalling of assets (including any rights provided by California Civil Code
Sections 2899 and 3433) or a sale in inverse order of alienation.
SECTION 12.6. DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDINGS. If Beneficiary shall have
proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan
Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any
reason, Beneficiary shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an
event, Grantor and Beneficiary shall be restored to their former positions with
respect to the Obligations, the Loan Documents, the Collateral and otherwise,
and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Beneficiary shall continue as
if the right,
6
remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or
abandonment shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right
of Beneficiary thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the
Loan Documents for such Event of Default.
SECTION 12.7. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of any sale of, and the
Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, operating, insuring, leasing,
management, operation or other use of the Collateral, shall be applied by
Beneficiary or Trustee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following
order unless otherwise required by applicable law:
(a) to the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the
Collateral and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the
same, including (1) trustee's and receiver's fees and expenses, (2) court costs,
(3) attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses, (4) costs of advertisement,
and (5) the payment of all ground rent, real estate taxes and assessments,
except any taxes, assessments, or other charges subject to which the Collateral
shall have been sold;
(b) to the payment of all amounts (including interest at the Default Rate),
other than the unpaid principal balance of the Note and accrued but unpaid
interest, which may be due to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents;
(c) to the payment and performance of the remainder of the Obligations in
such manner and order of preference as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may
determine; and
(d) the balance, if any, to the payment of the persons legally entitled
thereto.
SECTION 12.8. OCCUPANCY AFTER FORECLOSURE. The purchaser at any sale
pursuant to Section 4.1(d) shall become the legal owner of the Collateral. All
occupants of the Collateral shall, at the option of such purchaser, become
tenants of the purchaser at the sale and shall deliver possession thereof
immediately to the purchaser upon demand. It shall not be necessary for the
purchaser at said sale to bring any action for possession of the Collateral
other than the statutory action of forcible detainer in any court having
jurisdiction over the Collateral.
SECTION 12.9. ADDITIONAL ADVANCES AND DISBURSEMENTS; COSTS OF ENFORCEMENT.
(a) If Grantor shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform
any act required by the Loan Documents and such failure constitutes an Event of
Default, then without notice to or demand upon Grantor or any other Person, and
without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse Beneficiary may
have because of such Event of Default, Beneficiary may (but shall not be
obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at
the expense of Grantor, provided that any such action by or on behalf of
Beneficiary of such non-performance or breach shall not be deemed to cure any
such Event of Default. All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by
Beneficiary under this Section 4.9, or otherwise under this Deed of Trust or any
of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, shall be payable within the
Demand Period, and shall bear interest from the expiration of the Demand Period
to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the Default Rate, and
all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.
(b) Prior to the expiration of the applicable Demand Period, Grantor shall
pay, or at Beneficiary's option, reimburse Beneficiary and Trustee for, all
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of or incidental to
the perfection and enforcement of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan
Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Obligations or
any claim under this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, or for
defending or asserting the rights and claims of Beneficiary in respect thereof,
by litigation or otherwise. Such expenses shall include reasonable expenses
(including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel for Beneficiary)
incurred in connection with (i) the preservation and enforcement of
Beneficiary's liens and security interests under this Deed of Trust, (ii) the
protection, exercise or enforcement of Beneficiary's rights with respect to the
Property including Beneficiary's rights to (1) collect or take possession of the
Property and the proceeds thereof, (2) hold the Property, (3) prepare the
Property for sale or other disposition and (4) sell or otherwise dispose of the
Property, and (iii) the assertion, protection, exercise or enforcement of
Beneficiary's rights in any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code,
including the preparation, filing and prosecution of (1) proofs
7
of claim, (2) motions for relief from the automatic stay, (3) motions for
adequate protection, and (4) complaints, answers and other pleadings in
adversary proceedings by or against Beneficiary or relating in any way to the
Property. The duties and obligations of Beneficiary under this Section 4.9(b)
are in addition to, and not in lieu of, Beneficiary's duties and obligations
under Section 9.5 of the Loan Agreement.
SECTION 12.10. NO MORTGAGEE-IN-POSSESSION. Neither the enforcement of any
of the remedies under this Article 4, the assignment of the Leases and Rents
under Article 5, the security interests under Article 6, nor any other remedies
afforded to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall
cause Beneficiary or Trustee to be deemed or construed to be a
mortgagee-in-possession of the Collateral, to obligate Beneficiary or Trustee to
lease the Collateral or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any
expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever
under any of the Leases or otherwise.
ARTICLE 13.
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
SECTION 13.1. ASSIGNMENT. Grantor acknowledges and confirms that it has
executed and delivered to Beneficiary an Assignment of Leases and Rents of even
date (the "Assignment of Leases and Rents"), intending that such instrument
create a present, absolute assignment to Beneficiary of, among other things, the
Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents. Without limiting the intended benefits or
the remedies provided under the Assignment of Leases and Rents, Grantor hereby
assigns to Beneficiary, as further security for the Obligations, the Leases,
Lease Guaranties and Rents. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,
Beneficiary shall be entitled to exercise any or all of the remedies provided in
the Assignment of Leases and Rents and in Article 4 hereof, including the right
to have a receiver appointed. If any conflict or inconsistency exists between
the assignment of Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents in this Deed of Trust and
the absolute assignment of Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents in the Assignment
of Leases and Rents, the terms of the Assignment of Leases and Rents shall
control.
SECTION 13.2. NO MERGER OF ESTATES. So long as any part of the Obligations
remain unpaid and undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Collateral
shall not merge, but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the
union of such estates either in Grantor, Beneficiary, any lessee or any third
party by purchase or otherwise.
ARTICLE 14.
SECURITY AGREEMENT
SECTION 14.1. SECURITY AGREEMENT. This Deed of Trust shall constitute a
security agreement under Article 9 of the UCC in each applicable jurisdiction
with respect to the Personal Property, which shall be deemed to include any and
all fixtures and personal property included in the description of the Personal
Property, now owned or hereafter acquired by Grantor, which might otherwise be
deemed "personal property" and all accessions thereto and the proceeds thereof.
Grantor has granted and does hereby grant Beneficiary a security interest in the
Personal Property and in all additions and accessions thereto, renewals and
replacements thereof and all substitutions therefor and proceeds thereof for the
purpose of securing all Obligations now or hereafter secured by this Deed of
Trust. The following provisions relate to such security interest:
(a) The Personal Property includes all now existing or hereafter acquired
or arising equipment, inventory, accounts, chattel paper, instruments,
documents, deposit accounts, investment property, letter-of-credit rights,
commercial tort claims, supporting obligations and general intangibles now or
hereafter used or procured for use in the Collateral or otherwise relating to
the Collateral. If Grantor shall at any time acquire a commercial tort claim
relating to the Collateral, Grantor shall promptly notify Beneficiary in a
writing signed by Grantor of the brief details thereof and grant to Beneficiary
a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof.
(b) Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes Beneficiary at any time and from
time to time to file in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any initial
financing statements and amendments thereto that (a)
8
indicate the collateral as "all assets used or procured for use or otherwise
relating to" the Collateral or words of similar effect, or as being of equal or
lesser scope or in greater detail, and to indicate the Collateral as defined, or
in a manner consistent with the term as defined, in this Deed of Trust and (b)
contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC of any
such filing office for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any
initial financing statement or amendment, including whether Grantor is an
organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification
number issued to Grantor. Grantor agrees to provide any such information to
Beneficiary promptly upon request. Grantor also ratifies its authorization for
Beneficiary to have filed in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any like
initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date
hereof. Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary, from time to time, within the Demand
Period, any and all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection
with the filing of any such initial financing statements and amendments,
including attorneys' fees and all disbursements. Such costs and expenses shall
bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand Period until
the date repaid by Grantor, and such costs and expenses, together with such
interest, shall be part of the Obligations and shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.
(c) Grantor shall any time and from time to time take such steps as
Beneficiary may reasonably request for Beneficiary to obtain "control" of any
Personal Property for which control is a permitted or required method to
perfect, or to insure priority of, the security interest in such Personal
Property granted herein.
(d) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Beneficiary shall have the
rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC as well as all other rights
and remedies available at law or in equity or under this Deed of Trust.
(e) It is intended by Grantor and Beneficiary that this Deed of Trust be
effective as a financing statement filed with the applicable real estate records
as a fixture filing covering the Collateral. A description of the Land which
relates to the Personal Property is set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.
Grantor is the record owner of the Land. Grantor is a Delaware limited
partnership with an organizational identification number, issued by the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, of 2500587.
(f) Terms defined in the UCC and not otherwise defined in this Deed of
Trust shall have the same meanings in this Article as are set forth in the UCC.
In the event that a term is used in Article 9 of the UCC and also in another
Article of the UCC, the term used in this Article is that used in Article 9. The
term "control," as used in this Article, has the meaning given in Sections
9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of Article 9, as applicable.
ARTICLE 15.
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
SECTION 15.1. CERTAIN RIGHTS. With the approval of Beneficiary, Trustee
shall have the right to select, employ and consult with legal counsel. Trustee
shall have the right to rely on any instrument, document or signature
authorizing or supporting any action taken or proposed to be taken by Trustee
hereunder, believed by Trustee in good faith to be genuine. Trustee shall be
entitled to reimbursement for actual, reasonable expenses incurred by Trustee in
the performance of Trustee's duties. Grantor shall, from time to time, pay the

defend and save Trustee harmless against, all liability and reasonable expenses
which may be incurred by Trustee in the performance of Trustee's duties,
including those arising from the joint, concurrent, or comparative negligence of
Trustee; however, Grantor shall not be liable under such indemnification to the

shall not be reduced or impaired by principles of comparative or contributory
negligence.
SECTION 15.2. RETENTION OF MONEY. All moneys received by Trustee shall,

no liability for interest on any moneys received by Trustee hereunder.
9
SECTION 15.3. SUCCESSOR TRUSTEES. If Trustee or any successor Trustee shall
die, resign or become disqualified from acting in the execution of this trust,
or Beneficiary shall desire to appoint a substitute Trustee, Beneficiary shall
have full power to appoint one or more substitute Trustees and, if preferred,
several substitute Trustees in succession who shall succeed to all the estates,
rights, powers and duties of Trustee. Such appointment may be executed by any
authorized agent of Beneficiary, and as so executed, such appointment shall be
conclusively presumed to be executed with authority, valid and sufficient,
without further proof of any action.
SECTION 15.4. PERFECTION OF APPOINTMENT. Should any deed, conveyance or
instrument of any nature be required from Grantor by any successor Trustee to
more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to such successor Trustee such
estates, rights, powers and duties, then, upon request by such Trustee, all such
deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made, executed, acknowledged and
delivered and shall be caused to be recorded and/or filed by Grantor.
SECTION 15.5. TRUSTEE LIABILITY. In no event or circumstance shall Trustee
or any substitute Trustee hereunder be personally liable under or as a result of

of the Obligations, Grantor GRANTS, BARGAINS, SELLS, and CONVEYS the Collateral
to Trustee (subject, however, to the Permitted Encumbrances), TO HAVE AND TO

successors and assigns to WARRANT AND FOREVER DEFEND the title to the Collateral
unto Trustee.
ARTICLE 19.
WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS
Grantor warrants, represents and covenants to Beneficiary as follows:
SECTION 19.1. TITLE TO COLLATERAL AND LIEN OF THIS INSTRUMENT. Grantor owns
the Collateral free and clear of any liens, claims or interests, except the
Permitted Encumbrances. This Deed of Trust creates valid, enforceable first
priority liens and security interests against the Collateral.
SECTION 19.2. FIRST LIEN STATUS. Grantor shall preserve and protect the
first priority lien and security interest status of this Deed of Trust and the
other Loan Documents. If any lien or security interest other than the Permitted
Encumbrances is asserted against the Collateral, Grantor shall promptly, and at

interest (including origin, amount and such other information as Beneficiary may
request), and shall either (i) pay the underlying claim in full or take such
other action so as to cause it to be released, or (ii) contest the same in
compliance with the requirements of the Loan Agreement (including the
requirement of providing a bond or other security satisfactory to Beneficiary).
3
SECTION 19.3. PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. Grantor shall pay and perform the
Obligations in full when they are required to be performed. Grantor hereby
irrevocably authorizes Beneficiary to apply any and all amounts received by
Beneficiary in repayment of amounts due under the Loan Documents first to
amounts which are not guaranteed pursuant to the terms of any guaranty and then
to amounts which are guaranteed pursuant to the terms of any guaranty. Grantor
hereby waives any and all rights it has or may have under Section 2822 of the
California Civil Code which provides that if a guarantor is "liable upon only a
portion of an obligation and the principal provides partial satisfaction of the
obligation, the principal may designate the portion of the obligation that is to
be satisfied."
SECTION 19.4. REPLACEMENT OF FIXTURES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY. Grantor shall
not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary (which may be granted or
withheld in Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), permit any of the
Fixtures or Personal Property to be removed at any time from the Land or
Improvements, unless the removed item is removed temporarily for maintenance and
repair or, if removed permanently, is obsolete and is replaced by an article of
equal or better suitability and value, owned by Grantor subject to the liens and
security interests of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, and free
and clear of any other lien or security interest except such as may be first
approved in writing by Beneficiary prior to acquisition by Grantor.
SECTION 19.5. MAINTENANCE OF RIGHTS OF WAY, EASEMENTS AND LICENSES. Grantor
shall maintain all rights of way, easements, grants, privileges, licenses,
certificates, permits, entitlements, and franchises necessary for the use of the
Collateral and will not, without the prior consent of Beneficiary (which may be
granted or withheld in Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), consent to
any public restriction (including any zoning ordinance) or private restriction
as to the use of the Collateral. Grantor shall comply with all restrictive
covenants affecting the Collateral, and all Legal Requirements, including zoning
ordinances, environmental laws and other public or private restrictions as to
the use of the Collateral.
SECTION 19.6. INSPECTION. Grantor shall permit Beneficiary and/or Trustee,
and their agents, representatives and employees, upon reasonable prior notice to
Grantor, to inspect the Collateral and conduct such environmental and
engineering studies as Beneficiary may require, provided that such inspections
and studies shall not materially interfere with the use and operation of the
Collateral. The costs relating to such activities shall be paid by Beneficiary
unless (i) Beneficiary has a good faith basis for suspecting that Grantor is not
in material compliance with its warranties, covenants and agreements relating to
the physical condition of the Collateral and/or compliance with laws (including
environmental laws), (ii) the examination of such books and records reveals that
financial information submitted to Beneficiary by Grantor or anyone on behalf of
Grantor is materially inaccurate, or (iii) an Event of Default exists (or is
discovered as a result of any such inspection or review), in which case the
reasonable third party fees and expenses relating to such activities shall be
paid by Grantor within the Demand Period.
SECTION 19.7. OTHER COVENANTS. All of the covenants in the Loan Agreement
are incorporated herein by reference and, together with covenants in this
Article 3 shall be covenants running with the Property. The covenants set forth
in the Loan Agreement include, among other provisions: (a) the prohibition
against the further sale, transfer or encumbering of any of the Collateral, (b)

Grantor to obtain Beneficiary's written consent prior to entering into,
modifying or taking other actions with respect to Leases.
SECTION 19.8. CONDEMNATION AWARDS AND INSURANCE PROCEEDS.
(a) CONDEMNATION AWARDS. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all awards and
compensation for any condemnation or other taking, or any purchase in lieu
thereof, and authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such awards and
compensation and to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, subject to
the terms of the Loan Agreement.
4
(b) INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all proceeds of any
insurance policies insuring against loss or damage to the Collateral. Grantor
authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such proceeds, to give proper
receipts and acquittances therefor, and authorizes and directs the issuer of
each of such insurance policies to make payment for all such losses directly to
Beneficiary, instead of to Grantor and Beneficiary jointly, subject to the terms
of the Loan Agreement.
ARTICLE 20.
DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE
SECTION 20.1. REMEDIES. If an Event of Default exists, Beneficiary may, at
Beneficiary's election and by or through Trustee or otherwise, exercise any or
all of the following rights, remedies and recourses:
(a) ACCELERATION. Declare the Obligations to be immediately due and
payable, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to
accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever
(each of which hereby is expressly waived by Grantor), whereupon the same shall
become immediately due and payable and, immediately upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of
the Note at the Default Rate.
(b) ENTRY ON COLLATERAL. Enter the Collateral and take exclusive possession
thereof and of all books, records and accounts relating thereto. If Grantor
remains in possession of the Collateral after an Event of Default and without
Beneficiary's written consent (to be issued or withheld in Beneficiary's sole
and absolute discretion), Beneficiary may invoke any legal remedies to
dispossess Grantor.
(c) OPERATION OF COLLATERAL. Hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or
otherwise use the Collateral upon such terms and conditions as Beneficiary may
deem reasonable under the circumstances (including making such repairs,
alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to
time, as Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable), and apply all Rents and
other amounts collected by Beneficiary or, as applicable, Trustee in connection
therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7.
(d) FORECLOSURE AND SALE. To the greatest extent permitted by law, sell or
offer for sale the Collateral in such portions, order and parcels as Beneficiary
may determine, with or without having first taken possession of same, to the
highest bidder for cash at public auction. Such sale shall be made in accordance
with the laws of the State of California relating to the sale of real estate or
by Article 9 of the UCC relating to the sale of collateral after default by a
debtor (as such laws now exist or may be hereafter amended or succeeded), or by
any other present or subsequent articles or enactments relating to same. With
respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Grantor agrees that
five (5) days' prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. At
any such sale (i) whether made under the power herein contained, the UCC, any
other legal requirement or by virtue of any judicial proceedings or any other
legal right, remedy or recourse, it shall not be necessary for Trustee to be
physically present at or to have constructive possession of the Collateral
(Grantor shall deliver to Trustee any portion of the Collateral not actually or
constructively possessed by Trustee immediately upon demand by Trustee), and the
title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the
purchaser thereof as completely as if Trustee had been actually present and
delivered to purchaser at such sale, (ii) each instrument of conveyance executed
by Trustee shall contain a general warranty of title binding upon Grantor, (iii)
each recital contained in any instrument of conveyance made by Trustee shall
conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters recited therein,
including nonpayment of the Obligations, advertisement and conduct of such sale
in the manner provided herein and otherwise by law, and appointment of any
successor Trustee hereunder, (iv) any prerequisites to the validity of such sale
shall be conclusively presumed to have been performed, (v) the receipt of
Trustee or other party making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the
purchaser or purchasers for its or their purchase money and no such purchaser or
purchasers, or its or their assigns or personal representatives, shall
thereafter be obligated to see to the application of such purchase money or be
in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication thereof,
and (vi) to the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor shall be completely and
irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity
of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the
property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity
against Grantor, and against all other persons claiming or to claim the property
sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Grantor. Beneficiary
5
may be a purchaser at such sale and if Beneficiary is the highest bidder, may
credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to
Beneficiary against the Obligations in lieu of paying cash. Any proceeds of any
such sale or disposition shall not cure any Event of Default or reinstate any
Obligation for purposes of 2924c of the California Civil Code.
(e) RECEIVER. Make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for,
and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to
Grantor or regard to the adequacy of the Collateral for the repayment of the
Obligations, the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral, and Grantor
irrevocably consents to such appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the
usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power
to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Collateral upon such terms as may be
approved by the court, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the
provisions of Section 4.7.
(f) OTHER. Exercise all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under
the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity (including an
action for specific performance of any covenant contained in the Loan Documents,
or a judgment on the Note either before, during or after any proceeding to
enforce this Deed of Trust).
SECTION 20.2. SEPARATE SALES. The Collateral may be sold in one or more
parcels and in such manner and order as Trustee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may elect; and the right of sale arising out of any Event of Default
shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.
SECTION 20.3. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE, CONCURRENT AND NONEXCLUSIVE. Beneficiary
shall have all rights, remedies and recourses granted hereunder and in the Loan
Documents and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights (a)
shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively
or concurrently against Grantor or others obligated under the Note and the other
Loan Documents, or against the Collateral, or against any one or more of them,
at the sole discretion of Beneficiary, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion
therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall
not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy or
recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No action by
Beneficiary or Trustee in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses
hereunder, under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be
deemed to cure any Event of Default. To the extent permitted by law, Grantor
hereby waives and releases all procedural errors, defects and imperfections in
any proceedings instituted by Trustee or Beneficiary under the terms of this
Deed of Trust, the Note and the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 20.4. RELEASE OF AND RESORT TO COLLATERAL. Beneficiary may release,
regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or
consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Collateral, any part of the
Collateral without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting,
subordinating or releasing the lien or security interests created in or
evidenced by the Loan Documents or their stature as a first and prior lien and
security interest in and to the Collateral. For payment of the Obligations,
Beneficiary may resort to any other security in such order and manner as
Beneficiary may elect.
SECTION 20.5. WAIVER OF REDEMPTION, NOTICE AND MARSHALLING OF ASSETS. To
the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Grantor
by virtue of any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial
decision exempting the Collateral from attachment, levy or sale on execution or
providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay of execution, exemption from
civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of
any Event of Default or of Beneficiary's or, as applicable, Trustee's election
to exercise or its actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for
under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity, and (c) any right to a
marshalling of assets (including any rights provided by California Civil Code
Sections 2899 and 3433) or a sale in inverse order of alienation.
SECTION 20.6. DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDINGS. If Beneficiary shall have
proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan
Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any
reason, Beneficiary shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an
event, Grantor and Beneficiary shall be restored to their former positions with
respect to the Obligations, the Loan Documents, the Collateral and otherwise,
and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Beneficiary shall continue as
if the right,
6
remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or
abandonment shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right
of Beneficiary thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the
Loan Documents for such Event of Default.
SECTION 20.7. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of any sale of, and the
Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, operating, insuring, leasing,
management, operation or other use of the Collateral, shall be applied by
Beneficiary or Trustee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following
order unless otherwise required by applicable law:
(a) to the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the
Collateral and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the
same, including (1) trustee's and receiver's fees and expenses, (2) court costs,
(3) attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses, (4) costs of advertisement,
and (5) the payment of all ground rent, real estate taxes and assessments,
except any taxes, assessments, or other charges subject to which the Collateral
shall have been sold;
(b) to the payment of all amounts (including interest at the Default Rate),
other than the unpaid principal balance of the Note and accrued but unpaid
interest, which may be due to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents;
(c) to the payment and performance of the remainder of the Obligations in
such manner and order of preference as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may
determine; and
(d) the balance, if any, to the payment of the persons legally entitled
thereto.
SECTION 20.8. OCCUPANCY AFTER FORECLOSURE. The purchaser at any sale
pursuant to Section 4.1(d) shall become the legal owner of the Collateral. All
occupants of the Collateral shall, at the option of such purchaser, become
tenants of the purchaser at the sale and shall deliver possession thereof
immediately to the purchaser upon demand. It shall not be necessary for the
purchaser at said sale to bring any action for possession of the Collateral
other than the statutory action of forcible detainer in any court having
jurisdiction over the Collateral.
SECTION 20.9. ADDITIONAL ADVANCES AND DISBURSEMENTS; COSTS OF ENFORCEMENT.
(a) If Grantor shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform
any act required by the Loan Documents and such failure constitutes an Event of
Default, then without notice to or demand upon Grantor or any other Person, and
without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse Beneficiary may
have because of such Event of Default, Beneficiary may (but shall not be
obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at
the expense of Grantor, provided that any such action by or on behalf of
Beneficiary of such non-performance or breach shall not be deemed to cure any
such Event of Default. All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by
Beneficiary under this Section 4.9, or otherwise under this Deed of Trust or any
of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, shall be payable within the
Demand Period, and shall bear interest from the expiration of the Demand Period
to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the Default Rate, and
all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.
(b) Prior to the expiration of the applicable Demand Period, Grantor shall
pay, or at Beneficiary's option, reimburse Beneficiary and Trustee for, all
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of or incidental to
the perfection and enforcement of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan
Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Obligations or
any claim under this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, or for
defending or asserting the rights and claims of Beneficiary in respect thereof,
by litigation or otherwise. Such expenses shall include reasonable expenses
(including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel for Beneficiary)
incurred in connection with (i) the preservation and enforcement of
Beneficiary's liens and security interests under this Deed of Trust, (ii) the
protection, exercise or enforcement of Beneficiary's rights with respect to the
Property including Beneficiary's rights to (1) collect or take possession of the
Property and the proceeds thereof, (2) hold the Property, (3) prepare the
Property for sale or other disposition and (4) sell or otherwise dispose of the
Property, and (iii) the assertion, protection, exercise or enforcement of
Beneficiary's rights in any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code,
including the preparation, filing and prosecution of (1) proofs
7
of claim, (2) motions for relief from the automatic stay, (3) motions for
adequate protection, and (4) complaints, answers and other pleadings in
adversary proceedings by or against Beneficiary or relating in any way to the
Property. The duties and obligations of Beneficiary under this Section 4.9(b)
are in addition to, and not in lieu of, Beneficiary's duties and obligations
under Section 9.5 of the Loan Agreement.
SECTION 20.10. NO MORTGAGEE-IN-POSSESSION. Neither the enforcement of any
of the remedies under this Article 4, the assignment of the Leases and Rents
under Article 5, the security interests under Article 6, nor any other remedies
afforded to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall
cause Beneficiary or Trustee to be deemed or construed to be a
mortgagee-in-possession of the Collateral, to obligate Beneficiary or Trustee to
lease the Collateral or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any
expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever
under any of the Leases or otherwise.
ARTICLE 21.
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
SECTION 21.1. ASSIGNMENT. Grantor acknowledges and confirms that it has
executed and delivered to Beneficiary an Assignment of Leases and Rents of even
date (the "Assignment of Leases and Rents"), intending that such instrument
create a present, absolute assignment to Beneficiary of, among other things, the
Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents. Without limiting the intended benefits or
the remedies provided under the Assignment of Leases and Rents, Grantor hereby
assigns to Beneficiary, as further security for the Obligations, the Leases,
Lease Guaranties and Rents. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,
Beneficiary shall be entitled to exercise any or all of the remedies provided in
the Assignment of Leases and Rents and in Article 4 hereof, including the right
to have a receiver appointed. If any conflict or inconsistency exists between
the assignment of Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents in this Deed of Trust and
the absolute assignment of Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents in the Assignment
of Leases and Rents, the terms of the Assignment of Leases and Rents shall
control.
SECTION 21.2. NO MERGER OF ESTATES. So long as any part of the Obligations
remain unpaid and undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Collateral
shall not merge, but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the
union of such estates either in Grantor, Beneficiary, any lessee or any third
party by purchase or otherwise.
ARTICLE 22.
SECURITY AGREEMENT
SECTION 22.1. SECURITY AGREEMENT. This Deed of Trust shall constitute a
security agreement under Article 9 of the UCC in each applicable jurisdiction
with respect to the Personal Property, which shall be deemed to include any and
all fixtures and personal property included in the description of the Personal
Property, now owned or hereafter acquired by Grantor, which might otherwise be
deemed "personal property" and all accessions thereto and the proceeds thereof.
Grantor has granted and does hereby grant Beneficiary a security interest in the
Personal Property and in all additions and accessions thereto, renewals and
replacements thereof and all substitutions therefor and proceeds thereof for the

a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof.
(b) Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes Beneficiary at any time and from
time to time to file in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any initial
financing statements and amendments thereto that (a)
8
indicate the collateral as "all assets used or procured for use or otherwise

lesser scope or in greater detail, and to indicate the Collateral as defined, or
in a manner consistent with the term as defined, in this Deed of Trust and (b)
contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC of any
such filing office for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any
initial financing statement or amendment, including whether Grantor is an

Beneficiary promptly upon request. Grantor also ratifies its authorization for
Beneficiary to have filed in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any like
initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date
hereof. Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary, from time to time, within the Demand
Period, any and all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection
with the filing of any such initial financing statements and amendments,
including attorneys' fees and all disbursements. Such costs and expenses shall
bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand Period until
the date repaid by Grantor, and such costs and expenses, together with such
interest, shall be part of the Obligations and shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.
(c) Grantor shall any time and from time to time take such steps as
Beneficiary may reasonably request for Beneficiary to obtain "control" of any
Personal Property for which control is a permitted or required method to
perfect, or to insure priority of, the security interest in such Personal
Property granted herein.
(d) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Beneficiary shall have the
rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC as well as all other rights
and remedies available at law or in equity or under this Deed of Trust.
(e) It is intended by Grantor and Beneficiary that this Deed of Trust be
effective as a financing statement filed with the applicable real estate records
as a fixture filing covering the Collateral. A description of the Land which

partnership with an organizational identification number, issued by the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, of 2837170.
(f) Terms defined in the UCC and not otherwise defined in this Deed of
Trust shall have the same meanings in this Article as are set forth in the UCC.
In the event that a term is used in Article 9 of the UCC and also in another
Article of the UCC, the term used in this Article is that used in Article 9. The
term "control," as used in this Article, has the meaning given in Sections
9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of Article 9, as applicable.

negligence.

die, resign or become disqualified from acting in the execution of this trust,
or Beneficiary shall desire to appoint a substitute Trustee, Beneficiary shall
have full power to appoint one or more substitute Trustees and, if preferred,
several substitute Trustees in succession who shall succeed to all the estates,
rights, powers and duties of Trustee. Such appointment may be executed by any
authorized agent of Beneficiary, and as so executed, such appointment shall be
conclusively presumed to be executed with authority, valid and sufficient,
without further proof of any action.
SECTION 23.4. PERFECTION OF APPOINTMENT. Should any deed, conveyance or
instrument of any nature be required from Grantor by any successor Trustee to

obligations hereunder.

such former rights, liens and interests, if any, are not waived, but are
continued in full force and effect in favor of Beneficiary.

between this Deed of Trust and the Loan Agreement, the Loan Agreement shall

Grantor's expense, shall release the liens and security interests created by
this Deed of Trust or reconvey the Collateral to Grantor.
SECTION 24.9. WAIVER OF STAY, MORATORIUM AND SIMILAR RIGHTS. Grantor
agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any
time insist upon or plead or in any way take advantage of any appraisement,
valuation, stay, marshalling of assets, extension, redemption or moratorium law
now or hereafter in force and effect so as to prevent or hinder the enforcement

successors and assigns to WARRANT AND FOREVER DEFEND the title to the Collateral
unto Trustee.
ARTICLE 27.
WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS
Grantor warrants, represents and covenants to Beneficiary as follows:
SECTION 27.1. TITLE TO COLLATERAL AND LIEN OF THIS INSTRUMENT. Grantor owns
the Collateral free and clear of any liens, claims or interests, except the
Permitted Encumbrances. This Deed of Trust creates valid, enforceable first
priority liens and security interests against the Collateral.
SECTION 27.2. FIRST LIEN STATUS. Grantor shall preserve and protect the
first priority lien and security interest status of this Deed of Trust and the
other Loan Documents. If any lien or security interest other than the Permitted
Encumbrances is asserted against the Collateral, Grantor shall promptly, and at
its expense, give Beneficiary a detailed written notice of such lien or security
interest (including origin, amount and such other information as Beneficiary may
request), and shall either (i) pay the underlying claim in full or take such
other action so as to cause it to be released, or (ii) contest the same in
compliance with the requirements of the Loan Agreement (including the
requirement of providing a bond or other security satisfactory to Beneficiary).
3
SECTION 27.3. PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. Grantor shall pay and perform the
Obligations in full when they are required to be performed. Grantor hereby
irrevocably authorizes Beneficiary to apply any and all amounts received by
Beneficiary in repayment of amounts due under the Loan Documents first to
amounts which are not guaranteed pursuant to the terms of any guaranty and then
to amounts which are guaranteed pursuant to the terms of any guaranty. Grantor
hereby waives any and all rights it has or may have under Section 2822 of the
California Civil Code which provides that if a guarantor is "liable upon only a
portion of an obligation and the principal provides partial satisfaction of the
obligation, the principal may designate the portion of the obligation that is to
be satisfied."
SECTION 27.4. REPLACEMENT OF FIXTURES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY. Grantor shall
not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary (which may be granted or
withheld in Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), permit any of the
Fixtures or Personal Property to be removed at any time from the Land or
Improvements, unless the removed item is removed temporarily for maintenance and
repair or, if removed permanently, is obsolete and is replaced by an article of
equal or better suitability and value, owned by Grantor subject to the liens and
security interests of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, and free
and clear of any other lien or security interest except such as may be first
approved in writing by Beneficiary prior to acquisition by Grantor.
SECTION 27.5. MAINTENANCE OF RIGHTS OF WAY, EASEMENTS AND LICENSES. Grantor
shall maintain all rights of way, easements, grants, privileges, licenses,
certificates, permits, entitlements, and franchises necessary for the use of the
Collateral and will not, without the prior consent of Beneficiary (which may be
granted or withheld in Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), consent to
any public restriction (including any zoning ordinance) or private restriction
as to the use of the Collateral. Grantor shall comply with all restrictive
covenants affecting the Collateral, and all Legal Requirements, including zoning
ordinances, environmental laws and other public or private restrictions as to
the use of the Collateral.
SECTION 27.6. INSPECTION. Grantor shall permit Beneficiary and/or Trustee,
and their agents, representatives and employees, upon reasonable prior notice to
Grantor, to inspect the Collateral and conduct such environmental and
engineering studies as Beneficiary may require, provided that such inspections
and studies shall not materially interfere with the use and operation of the
Collateral. The costs relating to such activities shall be paid by Beneficiary
unless (i) Beneficiary has a good faith basis for suspecting that Grantor is not
in material compliance with its warranties, covenants and agreements relating to
the physical condition of the Collateral and/or compliance with laws (including
environmental laws), (ii) the examination of such books and records reveals that
financial information submitted to Beneficiary by Grantor or anyone on behalf of
Grantor is materially inaccurate, or (iii) an Event of Default exists (or is
discovered as a result of any such inspection or review), in which case the
reasonable third party fees and expenses relating to such activities shall be
paid by Grantor within the Demand Period.
SECTION 27.7. OTHER COVENANTS. All of the covenants in the Loan Agreement
are incorporated herein by reference and, together with covenants in this
Article 3 shall be covenants running with the Property. The covenants set forth
in the Loan Agreement include, among other provisions: (a) the prohibition
against the further sale, transfer or encumbering of any of the Collateral, (b)
the obligation to pay when due all taxes on the Collateral or assessed against
Beneficiary with respect to the Loan, (c) the right of Beneficiary to inspect
the Collateral, (d) the obligation to keep the Collateral insured in accordance
with the Loan Agreement, (e) the obligation to comply with all legal
requirements (including environmental laws), (f) the obligation to maintain the
Collateral in good condition, and promptly repair any damage or casualty, and
(g) except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Agreement, the obligation of
Grantor to obtain Beneficiary's written consent prior to entering into,
modifying or taking other actions with respect to Leases.
SECTION 27.8. CONDEMNATION AWARDS AND INSURANCE PROCEEDS.
(a) CONDEMNATION AWARDS. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all awards and
compensation for any condemnation or other taking, or any purchase in lieu
thereof, and authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such awards and
compensation and to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, subject to
the terms of the Loan Agreement.
4
(b) INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all proceeds of any
insurance policies insuring against loss or damage to the Collateral. Grantor
authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such proceeds, to give proper
receipts and acquittances therefor, and authorizes and directs the issuer of
each of such insurance policies to make payment for all such losses directly to
Beneficiary, instead of to Grantor and Beneficiary jointly, subject to the terms
of the Loan Agreement.
ARTICLE 28.
DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE
SECTION 28.1. REMEDIES. If an Event of Default exists, Beneficiary may, at
Beneficiary's election and by or through Trustee or otherwise, exercise any or
all of the following rights, remedies and recourses:
(a) ACCELERATION. Declare the Obligations to be immediately due and
payable, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to
accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever
(each of which hereby is expressly waived by Grantor), whereupon the same shall
become immediately due and payable and, immediately upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of
the Note at the Default Rate.
(b) ENTRY ON COLLATERAL. Enter the Collateral and take exclusive possession
thereof and of all books, records and accounts relating thereto. If Grantor
remains in possession of the Collateral after an Event of Default and without
Beneficiary's written consent (to be issued or withheld in Beneficiary's sole
and absolute discretion), Beneficiary may invoke any legal remedies to
dispossess Grantor.
(c) OPERATION OF COLLATERAL. Hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or
otherwise use the Collateral upon such terms and conditions as Beneficiary may
deem reasonable under the circumstances (including making such repairs,
alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to
time, as Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable), and apply all Rents and
other amounts collected by Beneficiary or, as applicable, Trustee in connection
therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7.
(d) FORECLOSURE AND SALE. To the greatest extent permitted by law, sell or
offer for sale the Collateral in such portions, order and parcels as Beneficiary
may determine, with or without having first taken possession of same, to the
highest bidder for cash at public auction. Such sale shall be made in accordance
with the laws of the State of California relating to the sale of real estate or
by Article 9 of the UCC relating to the sale of collateral after default by a
debtor (as such laws now exist or may be hereafter amended or succeeded), or by
any other present or subsequent articles or enactments relating to same. With
respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Grantor agrees that
five (5) days' prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. At
any such sale (i) whether made under the power herein contained, the UCC, any
other legal requirement or by virtue of any judicial proceedings or any other
legal right, remedy or recourse, it shall not be necessary for Trustee to be
physically present at or to have constructive possession of the Collateral
(Grantor shall deliver to Trustee any portion of the Collateral not actually or
constructively possessed by Trustee immediately upon demand by Trustee), and the
title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the
purchaser thereof as completely as if Trustee had been actually present and
delivered to purchaser at such sale, (ii) each instrument of conveyance executed
by Trustee shall contain a general warranty of title binding upon Grantor, (iii)
each recital contained in any instrument of conveyance made by Trustee shall
conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters recited therein,
including nonpayment of the Obligations, advertisement and conduct of such sale
in the manner provided herein and otherwise by law, and appointment of any
successor Trustee hereunder, (iv) any prerequisites to the validity of such sale
shall be conclusively presumed to have been performed, (v) the receipt of
Trustee or other party making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the
purchaser or purchasers for its or their purchase money and no such purchaser or
purchasers, or its or their assigns or personal representatives, shall
thereafter be obligated to see to the application of such purchase money or be
in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication thereof,
and (vi) to the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor shall be completely and
irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity
of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the
property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity
against Grantor, and against all other persons claiming or to claim the property
sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Grantor. Beneficiary
5
may be a purchaser at such sale and if Beneficiary is the highest bidder, may
credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to
Beneficiary against the Obligations in lieu of paying cash. Any proceeds of any
such sale or disposition shall not cure any Event of Default or reinstate any
Obligation for purposes of 2924c of the California Civil Code.
(e) RECEIVER. Make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for,
and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to
Grantor or regard to the adequacy of the Collateral for the repayment of the
Obligations, the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral, and Grantor
irrevocably consents to such appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the
usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power
to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Collateral upon such terms as may be
approved by the court, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the
provisions of Section 4.7.
(f) OTHER. Exercise all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under
the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity (including an
action for specific performance of any covenant contained in the Loan Documents,
or a judgment on the Note either before, during or after any proceeding to
enforce this Deed of Trust).
SECTION 28.2. SEPARATE SALES. The Collateral may be sold in one or more
parcels and in such manner and order as Trustee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may elect; and the right of sale arising out of any Event of Default
shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.
SECTION 28.3. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE, CONCURRENT AND NONEXCLUSIVE. Beneficiary
shall have all rights, remedies and recourses granted hereunder and in the Loan
Documents and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights (a)
shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively
or concurrently against Grantor or others obligated under the Note and the other
Loan Documents, or against the Collateral, or against any one or more of them,
at the sole discretion of Beneficiary, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion
therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall
not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy or
recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No action by
Beneficiary or Trustee in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses
hereunder, under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be
deemed to cure any Event of Default. To the extent permitted by law, Grantor
hereby waives and releases all procedural errors, defects and imperfections in
any proceedings instituted by Trustee or Beneficiary under the terms of this
Deed of Trust, the Note and the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 28.4. RELEASE OF AND RESORT TO COLLATERAL. Beneficiary may release,
regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or
consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Collateral, any part of the
Collateral without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting,
subordinating or releasing the lien or security interests created in or
evidenced by the Loan Documents or their stature as a first and prior lien and
security interest in and to the Collateral. For payment of the Obligations,
Beneficiary may resort to any other security in such order and manner as
Beneficiary may elect.
SECTION 28.5. WAIVER OF REDEMPTION, NOTICE AND MARSHALLING OF ASSETS. To
the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Grantor
by virtue of any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial
decision exempting the Collateral from attachment, levy or sale on execution or
providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay of execution, exemption from
civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of
any Event of Default or of Beneficiary's or, as applicable, Trustee's election
to exercise or its actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for
under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity, and (c) any right to a
marshalling of assets (including any rights provided by California Civil Code
Sections 2899 and 3433) or a sale in inverse order of alienation.
SECTION 28.6. DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDINGS. If Beneficiary shall have
proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan
Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any
reason, Beneficiary shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an
event, Grantor and Beneficiary shall be restored to their former positions with
respect to the Obligations, the Loan Documents, the Collateral and otherwise,
and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Beneficiary shall continue as
if the right,
6
remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or
abandonment shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right
of Beneficiary thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the
Loan Documents for such Event of Default.
SECTION 28.7. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of any sale of, and the
Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, operating, insuring, leasing,
management, operation or other use of the Collateral, shall be applied by
Beneficiary or Trustee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following
order unless otherwise required by applicable law:
(a) to the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the
Collateral and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the
same, including (1) trustee's and receiver's fees and expenses, (2) court costs,
(3) attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses, (4) costs of advertisement,
and (5) the payment of all ground rent, real estate taxes and assessments,
except any taxes, assessments, or other charges subject to which the Collateral
shall have been sold;
(b) to the payment of all amounts (including interest at the Default Rate),
other than the unpaid principal balance of the Note and accrued but unpaid
interest, which may be due to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents;
(c) to the payment and performance of the remainder of the Obligations in
such manner and order of preference as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may
determine; and
(d) the balance, if any, to the payment of the persons legally entitled
thereto.
SECTION 28.8. OCCUPANCY AFTER FORECLOSURE. The purchaser at any sale
pursuant to Section 4.1(d) shall become the legal owner of the Collateral. All
occupants of the Collateral shall, at the option of such purchaser, become
tenants of the purchaser at the sale and shall deliver possession thereof
immediately to the purchaser upon demand. It shall not be necessary for the
purchaser at said sale to bring any action for possession of the Collateral
other than the statutory action of forcible detainer in any court having
jurisdiction over the Collateral.
SECTION 28.9. ADDITIONAL ADVANCES AND DISBURSEMENTS; COSTS OF ENFORCEMENT.
(a) If Grantor shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform
any act required by the Loan Documents and such failure constitutes an Event of
Default, then without notice to or demand upon Grantor or any other Person, and
without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse Beneficiary may
have because of such Event of Default, Beneficiary may (but shall not be
obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at
the expense of Grantor, provided that any such action by or on behalf of
Beneficiary of such non-performance or breach shall not be deemed to cure any
such Event of Default. All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by
Beneficiary under this Section 4.9, or otherwise under this Deed of Trust or any
of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, shall be payable within the
Demand Period, and shall bear interest from the expiration of the Demand Period
to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the Default Rate, and
all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.
(b) Prior to the expiration of the applicable Demand Period, Grantor shall
pay, or at Beneficiary's option, reimburse Beneficiary and Trustee for, all
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of or incidental to
the perfection and enforcement of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan
Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Obligations or
any claim under this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, or for
defending or asserting the rights and claims of Beneficiary in respect thereof,
by litigation or otherwise. Such expenses shall include reasonable expenses
(including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel for Beneficiary)
incurred in connection with (i) the preservation and enforcement of
Beneficiary's liens and security interests under this Deed of Trust, (ii) the
protection, exercise or enforcement of Beneficiary's rights with respect to the
Property including Beneficiary's rights to (1) collect or take possession of the
Property and the proceeds thereof, (2) hold the Property, (3) prepare the
Property for sale or other disposition and (4) sell or otherwise dispose of the
Property, and (iii) the assertion, protection, exercise or enforcement of
Beneficiary's rights in any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code,
including the preparation, filing and prosecution of (1) proofs
7
of claim, (2) motions for relief from the automatic stay, (3) motions for
adequate protection, and (4) complaints, answers and other pleadings in
adversary proceedings by or against Beneficiary or relating in any way to the
Property. The duties and obligations of Beneficiary under this Section 4.9(b)
are in addition to, and not in lieu of, Beneficiary's duties and obligations
under Section 9.5 of the Loan Agreement.
SECTION 28.10. NO MORTGAGEE-IN-POSSESSION. Neither the enforcement of any
of the remedies under this Article 4, the assignment of the Leases and Rents
under Article 5, the security interests under Article 6, nor any other remedies
afforded to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall
cause Beneficiary or Trustee to be deemed or construed to be a
mortgagee-in-possession of the Collateral, to obligate Beneficiary or Trustee to
lease the Collateral or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any
expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever
under any of the Leases or otherwise.
ARTICLE 29.
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
SECTION 29.1. ASSIGNMENT. Grantor acknowledges and confirms that it has
executed and delivered to Beneficiary an Assignment of Leases and Rents of even
date (the "Assignment of Leases and Rents"), intending that such instrument
create a present, absolute assignment to Beneficiary of, among other things, the
Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents. Without limiting the intended benefits or
the remedies provided under the Assignment of Leases and Rents, Grantor hereby
assigns to Beneficiary, as further security for the Obligations, the Leases,
Lease Guaranties and Rents. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,
Beneficiary shall be entitled to exercise any or all of the remedies provided in
the Assignment of Leases and Rents and in Article 4 hereof, including the right
to have a receiver appointed. If any conflict or inconsistency exists between
the assignment of Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents in this Deed of Trust and
the absolute assignment of Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents in the Assignment
of Leases and Rents, the terms of the Assignment of Leases and Rents shall
control.
SECTION 29.2. NO MERGER OF ESTATES. So long as any part of the Obligations
remain unpaid and undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Collateral
shall not merge, but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the
union of such estates either in Grantor, Beneficiary, any lessee or any third
party by purchase or otherwise.
ARTICLE 30.
SECURITY AGREEMENT
SECTION 30.1. SECURITY AGREEMENT. This Deed of Trust shall constitute a
security agreement under Article 9 of the UCC in each applicable jurisdiction
with respect to the Personal Property, which shall be deemed to include any and
all fixtures and personal property included in the description of the Personal
Property, now owned or hereafter acquired by Grantor, which might otherwise be
deemed "personal property" and all accessions thereto and the proceeds thereof.
Grantor has granted and does hereby grant Beneficiary a security interest in the
Personal Property and in all additions and accessions thereto, renewals and
replacements thereof and all substitutions therefor and proceeds thereof for the
purpose of securing all Obligations now or hereafter secured by this Deed of
Trust. The following provisions relate to such security interest:
(a) The Personal Property includes all now existing or hereafter acquired
or arising equipment, inventory, accounts, chattel paper, instruments,
documents, deposit accounts, investment property, letter-of-credit rights,
commercial tort claims, supporting obligations and general intangibles now or
hereafter used or procured for use in the Collateral or otherwise relating to
the Collateral. If Grantor shall at any time acquire a commercial tort claim
relating to the Collateral, Grantor shall promptly notify Beneficiary in a
writing signed by Grantor of the brief details thereof and grant to Beneficiary
a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof.
(b) Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes Beneficiary at any time and from
time to time to file in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any initial
financing statements and amendments thereto that (a)
8
indicate the collateral as "all assets used or procured for use or otherwise
relating to" the Collateral or words of similar effect, or as being of equal or
lesser scope or in greater detail, and to indicate the Collateral as defined, or
in a manner consistent with the term as defined, in this Deed of Trust and (b)
contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC of any
such filing office for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any
initial financing statement or amendment, including whether Grantor is an
organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification
number issued to Grantor. Grantor agrees to provide any such information to
Beneficiary promptly upon request. Grantor also ratifies its authorization for
Beneficiary to have filed in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any like
initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date
hereof. Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary, from time to time, within the Demand
Period, any and all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection
with the filing of any such initial financing statements and amendments,
including attorneys' fees and all disbursements. Such costs and expenses shall
bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand Period until
the date repaid by Grantor, and such costs and expenses, together with such
interest, shall be part of the Obligations and shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.
(c) Grantor shall any time and from time to time take such steps as
Beneficiary may reasonably request for Beneficiary to obtain "control" of any
Personal Property for which control is a permitted or required method to
perfect, or to insure priority of, the security interest in such Personal
Property granted herein.
(d) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Beneficiary shall have the
rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC as well as all other rights
and remedies available at law or in equity or under this Deed of Trust.
(e) It is intended by Grantor and Beneficiary that this Deed of Trust be
effective as a financing statement filed with the applicable real estate records
as a fixture filing covering the Collateral. A description of the Land which
relates to the Personal Property is set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.
Grantor is the record owner of the Land. Grantor is a Delaware limited
partnership with an organizational identification number, issued by the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, of 2837173.
(f) Terms defined in the UCC and not otherwise defined in this Deed of
Trust shall have the same meanings in this Article as are set forth in the UCC.
In the event that a term is used in Article 9 of the UCC and also in another
Article of the UCC, the term used in this Article is that used in Article 9. The
term "control," as used in this Article, has the meaning given in Sections
9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of Article 9, as applicable.
ARTICLE 31.

compensation due to Trustee hereunder and reimburse Trustee for, and indemnify,
defend and save Trustee harmless against, all liability and reasonable expenses
which may be incurred by Trustee in the performance of Trustee's duties,

Trustee; however, Grantor shall not be liable under such indemnification to the

shall not be reduced or impaired by principles of comparative or contributory
negligence.
SECTION 31.2. RETENTION OF MONEY. All moneys received by Trustee shall,

no liability for interest on any moneys received by Trustee hereunder.
9
SECTION 31.3. SUCCESSOR TRUSTEES. If Trustee or any successor Trustee shall
die, resign or become disqualified from acting in the execution of this trust,
or Beneficiary shall desire to appoint a substitute Trustee, Beneficiary shall
have full power to appoint one or more substitute Trustees and, if preferred,
several substitute Trustees in succession who shall succeed to all the estates,
rights, powers and duties of Trustee. Such appointment may be executed by any
authorized agent of Beneficiary, and as so executed, such appointment shall be
conclusively presumed to be executed with authority, valid and sufficient,
without further proof of any action.
SECTION 31.4. PERFECTION OF APPOINTMENT. Should any deed, conveyance or
instrument of any nature be required from Grantor by any successor Trustee to
more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to such successor Trustee such
estates, rights, powers and duties, then, upon request by such Trustee, all such
deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made, executed, acknowledged and
delivered and shall be caused to be recorded and/or filed by Grantor.
SECTION 31.5. TRUSTEE LIABILITY. In no event or circumstance shall Trustee

Deed of Trust and to any subsequent owner of all or any portion of the Property

conveyance or transfer of the Property). All persons or entities who may have or
acquire an interest in the Property shall be deemed to have notice of, and be

obligations hereunder.
SECTION 32.5. NO WAIVER. Any failure by Trustee or Beneficiary to insist

used to extinguish, extend or renew any indebtedness against the Collateral,

this Deed of Trust or reconvey the Collateral to Grantor.
SECTION 32.9. WAIVER OF STAY, MORATORIUM AND SIMILAR RIGHTS. Grantor
agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any
time insist upon or plead or in any way take advantage of any appraisement,
valuation, stay, marshalling of assets, extension, redemption or moratorium law
now or hereafter in force and effect so as to prevent or hinder the enforcement

WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS
Grantor warrants, represents and covenants to Beneficiary as follows:
SECTION 35.1. TITLE TO COLLATERAL AND LIEN OF THIS INSTRUMENT. Grantor owns
the Collateral free and clear of any liens, claims or interests, except the
Permitted Encumbrances. This Deed of Trust creates valid, enforceable first
priority liens and security interests against the Collateral.
SECTION 35.2. FIRST LIEN STATUS. Grantor shall preserve and protect the
first priority lien and security interest status of this Deed of Trust and the
other Loan Documents. If any lien or security interest other than the Permitted
Encumbrances is asserted against the Collateral, Grantor shall promptly, and at
its expense, give Beneficiary a detailed written notice of such lien or security
interest (including origin, amount and such other information as Beneficiary may
request), and shall either (i) pay the underlying claim in full or take such
other action so as to cause it to be released, or (ii) contest the same in
compliance with the requirements of the Loan Agreement (including the
requirement of providing a bond or other security satisfactory to Beneficiary).
3
SECTION 35.3. PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. Grantor shall pay and perform the
Obligations in full when they are required to be performed. Grantor hereby
irrevocably authorizes Beneficiary to apply any and all amounts received by
Beneficiary in repayment of amounts due under the Loan Documents first to
amounts which are not guaranteed pursuant to the terms of any guaranty and then
to amounts which are guaranteed pursuant to the terms of any guaranty. Grantor
hereby waives any and all rights it has or may have under Section 2822 of the
California Civil Code which provides that if a guarantor is "liable upon only a
portion of an obligation and the principal provides partial satisfaction of the
obligation, the principal may designate the portion of the obligation that is to
be satisfied."
SECTION 35.4. REPLACEMENT OF FIXTURES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY. Grantor shall
not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary (which may be granted or
withheld in Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), permit any of the
Fixtures or Personal Property to be removed at any time from the Land or
Improvements, unless the removed item is removed temporarily for maintenance and
repair or, if removed permanently, is obsolete and is replaced by an article of
equal or better suitability and value, owned by Grantor subject to the liens and
security interests of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, and free
and clear of any other lien or security interest except such as may be first
approved in writing by Beneficiary prior to acquisition by Grantor.
SECTION 35.5. MAINTENANCE OF RIGHTS OF WAY, EASEMENTS AND LICENSES. Grantor
shall maintain all rights of way, easements, grants, privileges, licenses,
certificates, permits, entitlements, and franchises necessary for the use of the
Collateral and will not, without the prior consent of Beneficiary (which may be
granted or withheld in Beneficiary's sole and absolute discretion), consent to
any public restriction (including any zoning ordinance) or private restriction
as to the use of the Collateral. Grantor shall comply with all restrictive
covenants affecting the Collateral, and all Legal Requirements, including zoning
ordinances, environmental laws and other public or private restrictions as to
the use of the Collateral.
SECTION 35.6. INSPECTION. Grantor shall permit Beneficiary and/or Trustee,
and their agents, representatives and employees, upon reasonable prior notice to
Grantor, to inspect the Collateral and conduct such environmental and
engineering studies as Beneficiary may require, provided that such inspections
and studies shall not materially interfere with the use and operation of the
Collateral. The costs relating to such activities shall be paid by Beneficiary
unless (i) Beneficiary has a good faith basis for suspecting that Grantor is not
in material compliance with its warranties, covenants and agreements relating to
the physical condition of the Collateral and/or compliance with laws (including
environmental laws), (ii) the examination of such books and records reveals that
financial information submitted to Beneficiary by Grantor or anyone on behalf of
Grantor is materially inaccurate, or (iii) an Event of Default exists (or is
discovered as a result of any such inspection or review), in which case the
reasonable third party fees and expenses relating to such activities shall be
paid by Grantor within the Demand Period.
SECTION 35.7. OTHER COVENANTS. All of the covenants in the Loan Agreement
are incorporated herein by reference and, together with covenants in this
Article 3 shall be covenants running with the Property. The covenants set forth
in the Loan Agreement include, among other provisions: (a) the prohibition
against the further sale, transfer or encumbering of any of the Collateral, (b)
the obligation to pay when due all taxes on the Collateral or assessed against
Beneficiary with respect to the Loan, (c) the right of Beneficiary to inspect
the Collateral, (d) the obligation to keep the Collateral insured in accordance

requirements (including environmental laws), (f) the obligation to maintain the
Collateral in good condition, and promptly repair any damage or casualty, and
(g) except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Agreement, the obligation of
Grantor to obtain Beneficiary's written consent prior to entering into,
modifying or taking other actions with respect to Leases.
SECTION 35.8. CONDEMNATION AWARDS AND INSURANCE PROCEEDS.
(a) CONDEMNATION AWARDS. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all awards and
compensation for any condemnation or other taking, or any purchase in lieu
thereof, and authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such awards and
compensation and to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, subject to
the terms of the Loan Agreement.
4
(b) INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all proceeds of any
insurance policies insuring against loss or damage to the Collateral. Grantor
authorizes Beneficiary to collect and receive such proceeds, to give proper
receipts and acquittances therefor, and authorizes and directs the issuer of
each of such insurance policies to make payment for all such losses directly to
Beneficiary, instead of to Grantor and Beneficiary jointly, subject to the terms
of the Loan Agreement.
ARTICLE 36.
DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE
SECTION 36.1. REMEDIES. If an Event of Default exists, Beneficiary may, at
Beneficiary's election and by or through Trustee or otherwise, exercise any or
all of the following rights, remedies and recourses:
(a) ACCELERATION. Declare the Obligations to be immediately due and
payable, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to
accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature whatsoever
(each of which hereby is expressly waived by Grantor), whereupon the same shall
become immediately due and payable and, immediately upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of
the Note at the Default Rate.
(b) ENTRY ON COLLATERAL. Enter the Collateral and take exclusive possession
thereof and of all books, records and accounts relating thereto. If Grantor
remains in possession of the Collateral after an Event of Default and without
Beneficiary's written consent (to be issued or withheld in Beneficiary's sole
and absolute discretion), Beneficiary may invoke any legal remedies to
dispossess Grantor.
(c) OPERATION OF COLLATERAL. Hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or
otherwise use the Collateral upon such terms and conditions as Beneficiary may
deem reasonable under the circumstances (including making such repairs,
alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to
time, as Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable), and apply all Rents and
other amounts collected by Beneficiary or, as applicable, Trustee in connection
therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7.
(d) FORECLOSURE AND SALE. To the greatest extent permitted by law, sell or
offer for sale the Collateral in such portions, order and parcels as Beneficiary
may determine, with or without having first taken possession of same, to the
highest bidder for cash at public auction. Such sale shall be made in accordance
with the laws of the State of California relating to the sale of real estate or
by Article 9 of the UCC relating to the sale of collateral after default by a
debtor (as such laws now exist or may be hereafter amended or succeeded), or by
any other present or subsequent articles or enactments relating to same. With
respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Grantor agrees that
five (5) days' prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. At
any such sale (i) whether made under the power herein contained, the UCC, any
other legal requirement or by virtue of any judicial proceedings or any other
legal right, remedy or recourse, it shall not be necessary for Trustee to be
physically present at or to have constructive possession of the Collateral
(Grantor shall deliver to Trustee any portion of the Collateral not actually or
constructively possessed by Trustee immediately upon demand by Trustee), and the
title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the
purchaser thereof as completely as if Trustee had been actually present and
delivered to purchaser at such sale, (ii) each instrument of conveyance executed
by Trustee shall contain a general warranty of title binding upon Grantor, (iii)
each recital contained in any instrument of conveyance made by Trustee shall
conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters recited therein,
including nonpayment of the Obligations, advertisement and conduct of such sale
in the manner provided herein and otherwise by law, and appointment of any
successor Trustee hereunder, (iv) any prerequisites to the validity of such sale
shall be conclusively presumed to have been performed, (v) the receipt of
Trustee or other party making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the
purchaser or purchasers for its or their purchase money and no such purchaser or
purchasers, or its or their assigns or personal representatives, shall
thereafter be obligated to see to the application of such purchase money or be
in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication thereof,
and (vi) to the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor shall be completely and
irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim, equity, equity
of redemption, and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the
property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity
against Grantor, and against all other persons claiming or to claim the property
sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Grantor. Beneficiary
5
may be a purchaser at such sale and if Beneficiary is the highest bidder, may
credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to
Beneficiary against the Obligations in lieu of paying cash. Any proceeds of any
such sale or disposition shall not cure any Event of Default or reinstate any
Obligation for purposes of 2924c of the California Civil Code.
(e) RECEIVER. Make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for,
and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to
Grantor or regard to the adequacy of the Collateral for the repayment of the
Obligations, the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral, and Grantor
irrevocably consents to such appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the
usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power
to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Collateral upon such terms as may be
approved by the court, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the
provisions of Section 4.7.
(f) OTHER. Exercise all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under
the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity (including an
action for specific performance of any covenant contained in the Loan Documents,
or a judgment on the Note either before, during or after any proceeding to
enforce this Deed of Trust).
SECTION 36.2. SEPARATE SALES. The Collateral may be sold in one or more
parcels and in such manner and order as Trustee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may elect; and the right of sale arising out of any Event of Default
shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.
SECTION 36.3. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE, CONCURRENT AND NONEXCLUSIVE. Beneficiary
shall have all rights, remedies and recourses granted hereunder and in the Loan
Documents and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights (a)
shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively
or concurrently against Grantor or others obligated under the Note and the other
Loan Documents, or against the Collateral, or against any one or more of them,
at the sole discretion of Beneficiary, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion
therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall
not be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy or
recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive. No action by
Beneficiary or Trustee in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses
hereunder, under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be
deemed to cure any Event of Default. To the extent permitted by law, Grantor
hereby waives and releases all procedural errors, defects and imperfections in
any proceedings instituted by Trustee or Beneficiary under the terms of this
Deed of Trust, the Note and the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 36.4. RELEASE OF AND RESORT TO COLLATERAL. Beneficiary may release,
regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or
consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Collateral, any part of the
Collateral without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting,
subordinating or releasing the lien or security interests created in or
evidenced by the Loan Documents or their stature as a first and prior lien and
security interest in and to the Collateral. For payment of the Obligations,
Beneficiary may resort to any other security in such order and manner as
Beneficiary may elect.
SECTION 36.5. WAIVER OF REDEMPTION, NOTICE AND MARSHALLING OF ASSETS. To
the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Grantor
by virtue of any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial
decision exempting the Collateral from attachment, levy or sale on execution or
providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay of execution, exemption from
civil process, redemption or extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of
any Event of Default or of Beneficiary's or, as applicable, Trustee's election
to exercise or its actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for
under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity, and (c) any right to a
marshalling of assets (including any rights provided by California Civil Code
Sections 2899 and 3433) or a sale in inverse order of alienation.
SECTION 36.6. DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDINGS. If Beneficiary shall have
proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan
Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any
reason, Beneficiary shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an
event, Grantor and Beneficiary shall be restored to their former positions with
respect to the Obligations, the Loan Documents, the Collateral and otherwise,
and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Beneficiary shall continue as
if the right,
6
remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or
abandonment shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right
of Beneficiary thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the
Loan Documents for such Event of Default.
SECTION 36.7. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of any sale of, and the
Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, operating, insuring, leasing,
management, operation or other use of the Collateral, shall be applied by
Beneficiary or Trustee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following
order unless otherwise required by applicable law:
(a) to the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the
Collateral and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the
same, including (1) trustee's and receiver's fees and expenses, (2) court costs,
(3) attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses, (4) costs of advertisement,
and (5) the payment of all ground rent, real estate taxes and assessments,
except any taxes, assessments, or other charges subject to which the Collateral
shall have been sold;
(b) to the payment of all amounts (including interest at the Default Rate),
other than the unpaid principal balance of the Note and accrued but unpaid
interest, which may be due to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents;
(c) to the payment and performance of the remainder of the Obligations in
such manner and order of preference as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may
determine; and
(d) the balance, if any, to the payment of the persons legally entitled
thereto.
SECTION 36.8. OCCUPANCY AFTER FORECLOSURE. The purchaser at any sale
pursuant to Section 4.1(d) shall become the legal owner of the Collateral. All
occupants of the Collateral shall, at the option of such purchaser, become
tenants of the purchaser at the sale and shall deliver possession thereof
immediately to the purchaser upon demand. It shall not be necessary for the
purchaser at said sale to bring any action for possession of the Collateral
other than the statutory action of forcible detainer in any court having
jurisdiction over the Collateral.
SECTION 36.9. ADDITIONAL ADVANCES AND DISBURSEMENTS; COSTS OF ENFORCEMENT.
(a) If Grantor shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform
any act required by the Loan Documents and such failure constitutes an Event of
Default, then without notice to or demand upon Grantor or any other Person, and
without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse Beneficiary may
have because of such Event of Default, Beneficiary may (but shall not be
obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at
the expense of Grantor, provided that any such action by or on behalf of
Beneficiary of such non-performance or breach shall not be deemed to cure any
such Event of Default. All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by
Beneficiary under this Section 4.9, or otherwise under this Deed of Trust or any
of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, shall be payable within the
Demand Period, and shall bear interest from the expiration of the Demand Period
to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the Default Rate, and
all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.
(b) Prior to the expiration of the applicable Demand Period, Grantor shall
pay, or at Beneficiary's option, reimburse Beneficiary and Trustee for, all
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of or incidental to
the perfection and enforcement of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan
Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Obligations or
any claim under this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, or for
defending or asserting the rights and claims of Beneficiary in respect thereof,
by litigation or otherwise. Such expenses shall include reasonable expenses
(including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel for Beneficiary)
incurred in connection with (i) the preservation and enforcement of
Beneficiary's liens and security interests under this Deed of Trust, (ii) the
protection, exercise or enforcement of Beneficiary's rights with respect to the
Property including Beneficiary's rights to (1) collect or take possession of the
Property and the proceeds thereof, (2) hold the Property, (3) prepare the
Property for sale or other disposition and (4) sell or otherwise dispose of the
Property, and (iii) the assertion, protection, exercise or enforcement of
Beneficiary's rights in any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code,
including the preparation, filing and prosecution of (1) proofs
7
of claim, (2) motions for relief from the automatic stay, (3) motions for
adequate protection, and (4) complaints, answers and other pleadings in
adversary proceedings by or against Beneficiary or relating in any way to the
Property. The duties and obligations of Beneficiary under this Section 4.9(b)
are in addition to, and not in lieu of, Beneficiary's duties and obligations
under Section 9.5 of the Loan Agreement.
SECTION 36.10. NO MORTGAGEE-IN-POSSESSION. Neither the enforcement of any
of the remedies under this Article 4, the assignment of the Leases and Rents
under Article 5, the security interests under Article 6, nor any other remedies
afforded to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall
cause Beneficiary or Trustee to be deemed or construed to be a
mortgagee-in-possession of the Collateral, to obligate Beneficiary or Trustee to
lease the Collateral or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any
expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever
under any of the Leases or otherwise.
ARTICLE 37.
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
SECTION 37.1. ASSIGNMENT. Grantor acknowledges and confirms that it has
executed and delivered to Beneficiary an Assignment of Leases and Rents of even
date (the "Assignment of Leases and Rents"), intending that such instrument
create a present, absolute assignment to Beneficiary of, among other things, the
Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents. Without limiting the intended benefits or
the remedies provided under the Assignment of Leases and Rents, Grantor hereby
assigns to Beneficiary, as further security for the Obligations, the Leases,
Lease Guaranties and Rents. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,
Beneficiary shall be entitled to exercise any or all of the remedies provided in
the Assignment of Leases and Rents and in Article 4 hereof, including the right
to have a receiver appointed. If any conflict or inconsistency exists between
the assignment of Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents in this Deed of Trust and
the absolute assignment of Leases, Lease Guaranties and Rents in the Assignment
of Leases and Rents, the terms of the Assignment of Leases and Rents shall
control.
SECTION 37.2. NO MERGER OF ESTATES. So long as any part of the Obligations
remain unpaid and undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Collateral
shall not merge, but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the
union of such estates either in Grantor, Beneficiary, any lessee or any third
party by purchase or otherwise.
ARTICLE 38.
SECURITY AGREEMENT
SECTION 38.1. SECURITY AGREEMENT. This Deed of Trust shall constitute a
security agreement under Article 9 of the UCC in each applicable jurisdiction
with respect to the Personal Property, which shall be deemed to include any and
all fixtures and personal property included in the description of the Personal
Property, now owned or hereafter acquired by Grantor, which might otherwise be
deemed "personal property" and all accessions thereto and the proceeds thereof.
Grantor has granted and does hereby grant Beneficiary a security interest in the
Personal Property and in all additions and accessions thereto, renewals and
replacements thereof and all substitutions therefor and proceeds thereof for the
purpose of securing all Obligations now or hereafter secured by this Deed of
Trust. The following provisions relate to such security interest:
(a) The Personal Property includes all now existing or hereafter acquired
or arising equipment, inventory, accounts, chattel paper, instruments,
documents, deposit accounts, investment property, letter-of-credit rights,
commercial tort claims, supporting obligations and general intangibles now or
hereafter used or procured for use in the Collateral or otherwise relating to
the Collateral. If Grantor shall at any time acquire a commercial tort claim
relating to the Collateral, Grantor shall promptly notify Beneficiary in a
writing signed by Grantor of the brief details thereof and grant to Beneficiary
a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof.
(b) Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes Beneficiary at any time and from
time to time to file in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any initial
financing statements and amendments thereto that (a)
8
indicate the collateral as "all assets used or procured for use or otherwise
relating to" the Collateral or words of similar effect, or as being of equal or
lesser scope or in greater detail, and to indicate the Collateral as defined, or
in a manner consistent with the term as defined, in this Deed of Trust and (b)
contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC of any
such filing office for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any
initial financing statement or amendment, including whether Grantor is an
organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification
number issued to Grantor. Grantor agrees to provide any such information to
Beneficiary promptly upon request. Grantor also ratifies its authorization for
Beneficiary to have filed in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction any like
initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date
hereof. Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary, from time to time, within the Demand
Period, any and all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection
with the filing of any such initial financing statements and amendments,
including attorneys' fees and all disbursements. Such costs and expenses shall
bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the Demand Period until
the date repaid by Grantor, and such costs and expenses, together with such
interest, shall be part of the Obligations and shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust.
(c) Grantor shall any time and from time to time take such steps as
Beneficiary may reasonably request for Beneficiary to obtain "control" of any
Personal Property for which control is a permitted or required method to
perfect, or to insure priority of, the security interest in such Personal
Property granted herein.
(d) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Beneficiary shall have the
rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC as well as all other rights
and remedies available at law or in equity or under this Deed of Trust.
(e) It is intended by Grantor and Beneficiary that this Deed of Trust be
effective as a financing statement filed with the applicable real estate records
as a fixture filing covering the Collateral. A description of the Land which
relates to the Personal Property is set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.
Grantor is the record owner of the Land. Grantor is a Delaware limited
partnership with an organizational identification number, issued by the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, of 2927170.
(f) Terms defined in the UCC and not otherwise defined in this Deed of
Trust shall have the same meanings in this Article as are set forth in the UCC.
In the event that a term is used in Article 9 of the UCC and also in another
Article of the UCC, the term used in this Article is that used in Article 9. The
term "control," as used in this Article, has the meaning given in Sections
9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of Article 9, as applicable.
ARTICLE 39.

necessary capital expenditures or costs during the 12-month period
immediately preceding the occurrence of the Event of Default triggering
Lender's exercise of remedies; provided, however, that Carveout Indemnitor
shall not have liability under this subparagraph (D) to the extent
Operating Revenues generated during the 12-month period immediately

exercise of remedies were not sufficient to pay in full all such amounts

to pay such amounts to the full extent of Operating Revenues so received;
(E) The misappropriation of any Net Proceeds or condemnation awards by

(H) Any Borrower Party contesting or in any way interfering with,
directly or indirectly, any foreclosure action, Uniform Commercial Code

counterclaim, claiming any defense, seeking any
injunction or other restraint, commencing any action, or otherwise) in
connection with Lender's rights arising from an Event of Default; provided,
however, that if any Borrower Party obtains a final, non-appealable order

Carveout Indemnitor shall not have liability under this subparagraph (H);
(I) Any Borrower Party (i) filing a voluntary petition under the
Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law,
or (ii) making an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or
(J) Any Borrower Party (i) filing, or joining in the filing of, an

Lender within five (5) Business Days following Lender's request), to the
appointment of a receiver for any Property identified by Lender (the identity of
such receiver to be designated by Lender and approved by Borrower Parties, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld), and no Borrower Party seeks or
participates in the removal of said receiver (absent a material violation by
said receiver of the order appointing the receiver, in which case a substitute
receiver designated by Lender and approved by Borrower Parties, such approval
not to be unreasonably withheld, will be appointed) then Carveout Indemnitor
shall not have any liability under this Section 2 solely as a result of any
reduction in value of any Property or any other Collateral during the period
that Lender is pursuing its rights and remedies as a result of an Event of
Default.
3. GUARANTY.
(a) Carveout Indemnitor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees
to Lender and its successors and assigns the prompt and full payment and
performance of the Obligations, as and when the same shall be due and payable
(whether by lapse of time, by acceleration of maturity or otherwise), in the
event any prohibited Transfer occurs in violation of Section 7.1 of the Loan
Agreement (including the voluntary placement of a Lien on all or any portion of
the Collateral in violation of the Loan Documents).
(b) This guaranty is an irrevocable, absolute, continuing guaranty of
payment and performance and not a guaranty of collection. This guaranty may not
be revoked by Carveout Indemnitor and shall continue to be effective with
respect to any obligations of Carveout Indemnitor arising or created after any
attempted revocation by Carveout Indemnitor and after (if Carveout Indemnitor is
a natural person) Carveout Indemnitor's death (in which event this Agreement
shall be binding upon Carveout Indemnitor's estate and Carveout Indemnitor's
legal representatives and heirs). Carveout Indemnitor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally covenants and agrees that, to the extent that Carveout
Indemnitor has any liability or obligations under this Section 3, Carveout
Indemnitor is liable for the Obligations as a primary obligor.
4. OBLIGATIONS NOT REDUCED BY OFFSET. The liabilities and obligations of
Carveout Indemnitor to Lender hereunder shall not be reduced, discharged or
released because or by reason of any existing or future offset, claim or defense
of Carveout Indemnitor, or any other party, against Lender or against payment of
such liabilities or obligations, whether such offset, claim or defense arises in
connection with the Obligations (or the transactions creating the Obligations)
or otherwise.
5. NO DUTY TO PURSUE OTHERS. It shall not be necessary for Lender (and
Carveout Indemnitor hereby waives any rights which Carveout Indemnitor may have
to require Lender), in order to enforce the obligations of Carveout Indemnitor
hereunder, first to (i) institute suit or exhaust its remedies against Borrower
or
others liable on the Loan or the Obligations or any other person, (ii) enforce
Lender's rights or exhaust any remedies available to Lender against any portion
of any Property, (iii) enforce Lender's rights against any other guarantors,
(iv) join Borrower or any other person liable on the Obligations in any action
seeking to enforce this Agreement, or (v) resort to any other means of obtaining
payment of the Obligations. Lender shall not be required to mitigate damages or
take any other action to reduce, collect or enforce the Obligations.
6. WAIVERS.
(a) Carveout Indemnitor agrees to the provisions of the Loan Documents, and
hereby waives notice of (i) any loans or advances made by Lender to Borrower,
(ii) acceptance of this Agreement, (iii) any amendment or extension of the Loan
Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or of any other Loan Documents, (iv) the
execution and delivery by Borrower and Lender of any other loan or credit
agreement or of Borrower's execution and delivery of any promissory notes or
other documents arising under the Loan Documents or in connection with any
Property, (v) the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Loan Documents,
(vi) Lender's transfer or disposition of the Obligations, or any part thereof,
(vii) sale or foreclosure (or posting or advertising for sale or foreclosure) of
any Property, (viii) protest, proof of non-payment or default by Borrower, (ix)
any other action at any time taken or omitted by Lender, and (x) generally, all
demands and notices of every kind in connection with this Agreement, the Loan
Documents, any documents or agreements evidencing, securing or relating to any
of the Obligations.
(b) Carveout Indemnitor waives all benefits and defenses it may have under
California Civil Code Section 2810 and agrees that Lender's rights under this
Guaranty shall be enforceable even if Borrower had no liability at the time of
execution of the Loan Documents or later ceases to be liable.
(c) Carveout Indemnitor waives all benefits and defenses it may have under
California Civil Code Section 2809 with respect to its obligations under this
Agreement and agrees that Lender's rights under the Loan Documents will remain
enforceable even if the amount secured by the Loan Documents is larger in amount
and more burdensome than that for which Borrower is responsible.
(d) Carveout Indemnitor waives any rights or benefits it may have by reason
of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580a which could limit the amount
which Lender could recover in a foreclosure of any Property to the difference
between the amount owing under the Loan Documents and the fair value of the
property or interests sold at a nonjudicial foreclosure sale or sales of any
other real property held by Lender as security for the obligations under the
Loan Documents.
(e) Carveout Indemnitor waives all rights, defenses and benefits that are
or may become available to the guarantor or other surety by reason of California
Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive.
(f) Upon Borrower's default under the Loan Documents, Lender may elect to
foreclose nonjudicially on real property given by Borrower as security under the
Loan Documents and also to exercise its rights under this Agreement. Carveout
Indemnitor acknowledges that its right to seek reimbursement from Borrower for
any amounts paid by Carveout Indemnitor to Lender under this Agreement will be
eliminated if Lender elects to so foreclose on Borrower's property.
Nevertheless, Carveout Indemnitor waives any such right to reimbursement and
agrees that a nonjudicial foreclosure by Lender against any real property
security owned by Borrower will not affect the enforceability of this Agreement.
In order to further effectuate such waiver, Carveout Indemnitor hereby waives
all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender, even
though that election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect
to the security for the Recourse Obligations, has destroyed its rights of
subrogation and reimbursement against Borrower by the operation of Section 580d
of the Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.
(g) This Agreement is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights
and defenses Carveout Indemnitor may have with respect to this Agreement because
the Recourse Obligations secured by real property. These rights and defenses
include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a,
580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. Carveout Indemnitor
acknowledges having read and understood all of the provisions of Section 2856 of
the California Civil Code and that such provisions are applicable to this
Agreement. Additionally, without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Carveout Indemnitor also waives
to the extent applicable any defense based upon Lender's election to waive its
lien as to all or any security for the Recourse Obligations pursuant to
California Code of Civil Procedures Section 726.5 or otherwise.
7. PAYMENT OF EXPENSES. In the event that Carveout Indemnitor should breach
or fail to timely perform any provisions of this Agreement, Carveout Indemnitor
shall, within the Demand Period, pay Lender all costs and expenses (including
court costs and attorneys' fees) incurred by Lender in the enforcement hereof or
the preservation of Lender's rights hereunder. The covenant contained in this
Section 7 shall survive the payment and performance of any liabilities or
obligations herewith.
8. EFFECT OF BANKRUPTCY. In the event that, pursuant to any insolvency,
bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other debtor relief law, or any
judgment, order or decision thereunder, Lender must rescind or restore any
payment, or any part thereof, received by Lender in full or partial satisfaction
of the Obligations, any prior release or discharge from the terms of this
Agreement given to Carveout Indemnitor by Lender shall be without effect, and
this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. It is the intention of
Carveout Indemnitor that Carveout Indemnitor's obligations hereunder shall not
be discharged except by Carveout Indemnitor's full and final payment and
performance of such obligations and then only to the extent of such full and
final payment and performance.
9. BORROWER PARTY (PARTIES). The term "Borrower" as used herein shall
include any new or successor corporation, association, partnership (general or
limited), limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other organization
formed as a result of any merger, reorganization, sale, transfer, devise, gift
or bequest of Borrower or any interest in Carveout Indemnitor permitted by the
terms of the Loan Documents.
10. NO REDUCTION IN CARVEOUT INDEMNITOR'S OBLIGATIONS. Carveout Indemnitor
hereby consents and agrees to each of the following, and agrees that Carveout
Indemnitor's liabilities and obligations under this Agreement shall not be
released, diminished, impaired, reduced or adversely affected by any of the
following, and Carveout Indemnitor waives any common law, equitable, statutory
or other rights (including rights to notice) which Carveout Indemnitor might
otherwise have as a result of or in connection with any of the following:
(a) any renewal, extension, increase, modification, alteration or
rearrangement of all or any part of the Obligations, the Loan Agreement, the
Note, the Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, or any other document, instrument,
contract or understanding between Borrower and Lender, or any other person,
pertaining to the Obligations, or any failure of Lender to notify Carveout
Indemnitor of any such action;
(b) any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance or compromise that might be
granted or given by Lender to Borrower, Carveout Indemnitor or any other Person
at any time liable for the payment of all or any portion of the Obligations;
(c) the insolvency, bankruptcy, arrangement, adjustment, composition,
liquidation, disability, dissolution or lack of power of Borrower, Carveout

Indemnitor;
(f) the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of all or any part of
the Obligations, or any document or agreement executed in connection with or
evidencing the Obligations, including any Loan Document, for any reason
whatsoever, including the fact that (i) the Obligations, or any part thereof,
exceeds the amount permitted by law, (ii) the act of creating the Obligations or
any part thereof is ultra vires, (iii) the officers or representatives executing
the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents or
otherwise creating the Obligations acted in excess of their authority, (iv) the
Obligations violate applicable usury laws, (v)

agreement) which render the Obligations wholly or partially uncollectible from
Borrower, (vi) the creation, performance or repayment of the Obligations (or the
execution, delivery and performance of any document or instrument representing
part of the Obligations or executed in connection with the Obligations, or given
to secure the repayment of the Obligations) is illegal, uncollectible or
unenforceable, or (vii) the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any of the
other Loan Documents have been forged or otherwise are irregular or not genuine
or authentic, it being agreed that Carveout Indemnitor shall remain liable
hereon regardless of whether Carveout Indemnitor or any other Person is found
not liable on the Obligations or any part thereof for any reason;
(g) any full or partial release of the liability of Borrower with respect
to the Obligations, or any part thereof, or of any co-guarantors, or any other
person or entity now or hereafter liable, whether directly or indirectly,
jointly, severally, or jointly and severally, to pay, perform, guarantee or
assure the payment of the Obligations, or any part thereof, it being recognized,
acknowledged and agreed by Carveout Indemnitor that Carveout Indemnitor may be
required to pay the Obligations in full without assistance or support of any
other party, and Carveout Indemnitor has not been induced to enter into this
Agreement on the basis of a contemplation, belief, understanding or agreement
that other persons will be liable to pay or perform the Obligations, or that
Lender will look to each and every Carveout Indemnitor or any individual
Carveout Indemnitor to pay or perform the Obligations;
(h) the taking or accepting of any other security, collateral or guaranty,
or other assurance of payment, for all or any part of the Obligations;

(j) the alleged failure of Lender or any other party to exercise diligence
or reasonable care in the preservation, protection, enforcement, sale or other
handling or treatment of all or any part of any Property, including any neglect,
delay, omission, failure or refusal of Lender (i) to take or prosecute any
action for the collection of any of the Obligations, or (ii) to foreclose, or
initiate any action to foreclose, or, once commenced, prosecute to completion
any action to foreclose upon any security therefor, or (iii) to take or
prosecute any action in connection with any instrument or agreement evidencing
or securing all or any part of the Obligations;
(k) the fact that any security, security interest or lien contemplated or
intended to be given, created or granted as security for the repayment of the
Obligations, or any part thereof, shall not be properly perfected or created, or
shall prove to be unenforceable or subordinate to any other security interest or
lien, it being recognized and agreed by Carveout Indemnitor that Carveout
Indemnitor is not entering into this Agreement in reliance on, or in
contemplation of the benefits of, the validity, enforceability, collectibility
or value of any of the collateral for the Obligations;
(l) any existing or future right of offset, claim or defense of Borrower
against Lender, or any other person, or against payment of the Obligations,
whether such right of offset, claim or defense arises in connection with the
Obligations (or the transactions creating the Obligations) or otherwise;
(m) the reorganization, merger or consolidation of Borrower into or with
any other corporation or entity;

Documents, the Obligations, or any Property, whether or not such action or
omission prejudices Carveout Indemnitor or increases the likelihood that
Carveout Indemnitor will be required to pay the Obligations pursuant to the
terms hereof, it being the unambiguous and unequivocal intention of Carveout
Indemnitor that Carveout Indemnitor shall be obligated to
pay the Obligations when due as required by this Agreement, notwithstanding any
occurrence, circumstance, event, action, or omission whatsoever, whether
contemplated or unanticipated, and whether or not otherwise or particularly
described herein, which obligation shall be deemed satisfied only upon the full
and final payment and satisfaction of the Obligations.
11. REPRESENTATION, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF CARVEOUT INDEMNITOR. To

Carveout Indemnitor represents and warrants to Lender and covenants as follows:

direct or indirect interest in Borrower, and has received, or will receive,
direct or indirect benefit from the making of this Agreement with respect to the
Obligations;
(b) Carveout Indemnitor is familiar with, and has independently reviewed
books and records regarding the financial condition of Borrower and is familiar
with the value of each Property intended to be serve as security for the payment
of the Note or Obligations; however, Carveout Indemnitor is not relying on such
financial condition or any Property as an inducement to enter into this
Agreement;
(c) Neither Lender nor any other Person has made any representation,
warranty or statement to Carveout Indemnitor in order to induce Carveout
Indemnitor to execute this Agreement;
(d) As of the date hereof, and after giving effect to this Agreement and

satisfy and repay its obligations and liabilities;
(e) As of the date hereof, the execution, delivery and the contemplated
performance by Carveout Indemnitor of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereunder do not contravene or conflict with any law,
statute or regulation to which Carveout Indemnitor is subject or constitute a
default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute
a default) under, or result in the breach of, any indenture, mortgage, deed of
trust, charge, lien, or any contract, agreement or other instrument to which
Carveout Indemnitor is a party or which may be applicable to Carveout Indemnitor
that would have a material adverse effect on the Carveout Indemnitor. This
Agreement and any other Loan Documents to which Carveout Indemnitor is a party
are legal and binding obligations of Carveout Indemnitor and is enforceable in
accordance with its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other
laws of general application relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights and
subject to general principles of equity.
(f) All representations and warranties made by Carveout Indemnitor herein
shall survive the execution hereof.
(g) Any financial statements delivered by Carveout Indemnitor to Lender as
described in Section 5.3 of the Loan Agreement are true, complete and correct in
all material respects, with no material change as of the date hereof. Except as
disclosed in such financial statements, there is (a) no liability (fixed or
contingent) affecting Carveout Indemnitor and (b) no litigation, administrative
proceeding, investigation or other legal action (including any proceeding under
any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency law) pending or, to the knowledge
of Carveout Indemnitor, threatened, against Carveout Indemnitor that would have
a material adverse effect on Carveout Indemnitor. Carveout Indemnitor is not
contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under state or federal
bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of
its assets or property, and Carveout Indemnitor has no knowledge of any Person
contemplating the filing of any such petition against it.
(h) Carveout Indemnitor is not a party to any agreement or instrument or
subject to any court order, injunction, permit, or restriction which would have
a material adverse effect the business, operations, or condition (financial or
otherwise) of Carveout Indemnitor. Carveout Indemnitor is not in violation of
any agreement which violation would have a material adverse effect on Carveout
Indemnitor's business, properties, or assets, operations or condition, financial
or otherwise.
(i) Except as disclosed in the third party reports for each Property

paid or made adequate provision for the payment of all federal, state and local
taxes, charges and assessments payable by Carveout Indemnitor.
(k) There is no material statement of fact as of the date hereof made by or
on behalf of Carveout Indemnitor in any Loan Document to which it is a party

Indemnitor's knowledge, there is no material fact as of the date hereof known to
Carveout Indemnitor which has not been disclosed to Lender that could have a
material adverse effect, or as far as Carveout Indemnitor can reasonably
predict, might have a material adverse effect on the business, operations or
condition (financial or otherwise) of Carveout Indemnitor.
12. SUBORDINATION OF ALL CARVEOUT INDEMNITOR CLAIMS. As used herein, the
term "Carveout Indemnitor Claims" shall mean all debts and liabilities of
Borrower to Carveout Indemnitor, whether such debts and liabilities now exist or
are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligations of Borrower therein
be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or
otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts or liabilities be evidenced by
note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the person in
whose favor such debts or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may
hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be
acquired by Carveout Indemnitor. Carveout Indemnitor Claims shall include
without limitation all rights and claims of Carveout Indemnitor against Borrower
(arising as a result of subrogation or otherwise) as a result of Carveout
Indemnitor's payment of all or a portion of the Obligations. Upon the occurrence
of a Potential Default or an Event of Default, Carveout Indemnitor shall not
receive or collect, directly or indirectly, from Borrower or any other party any
amount of Carveout Indemnitor Claims.
13. CLAIMS IN BANKRUPTCY. In the event of receivership, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, debtor's relief, or other insolvency proceedings
involving Borrower as debtor, Lender shall have the right to prove its claim in
any such proceeding so as to establish its rights hereunder and receive directly
from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian dividends and payments which
would otherwise be payable upon Carveout Indemnitor Claims. Carveout Indemnitor
hereby assigns such dividends and payments to Lender. Should Lender receive, for
application upon the Obligations, any such dividend or payment which is
otherwise payable to Carveout Indemnitor, and which, as between Borrower and
Carveout Indemnitor, shall constitute a credit upon Carveout Indemnitor Claims,
then upon payment to Lender in full of the Obligations, Carveout Indemnitor
shall become subrogated to the rights of Lender to the extent that such payments
to Lender on Carveout Indemnitor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation
of the Obligations, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that amount of
the Obligations which would have been unpaid if Lender had not received
dividends or payments upon Carveout Indemnitor Claims.
14. PAYMENTS HELD IN TRUST. In the event that, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement, Carveout Indemnitor should receive any funds,
payment, claim or distribution which are prohibited by this Agreement, Carveout
Indemnitor agrees to hold in trust for Lender an amount equal to the amount of
all funds, payments, claims or distributions so received, and agrees that it
shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds, payments,
claims or distributions so received except to pay them promptly to Lender, and
Carveout Indemnitor covenants promptly to pay the same to Lender.
15. LIENS SUBORDINATE. Carveout Indemnitor agrees that any liens, security
interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon Borrower's assets
securing payment of Carveout Indemnitor Claims shall be and remain inferior and
subordinate to any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other
encumbrances upon Borrower's assets securing payment of the Obligations,
regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of Carveout Indemnitor or
Lender presently exist or are hereafter created or attach. Without the prior
written consent of Lender (which may be granted or withheld in Lender's sole
discretion), Carveout Indemnitor shall not (i) exercise or enforce any
creditor's right it may have against Borrower, or (ii) foreclose, repossess,
sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings
(judicial or otherwise, including the commencement of, or joinder in, any
liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor's relief or insolvency
proceeding) to enforce any liens, mortgages,
deeds of trust, security interests, collateral rights, judgments or other
encumbrances on assets of Borrower securing payment of the Obligations held by
Carveout Indemnitor.
16. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) WAIVER. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part
of Lender, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights of Lender hereunder shall
be in addition to all other rights provided by law or in equity. No modification
or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor any consent to depart
therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing and no such consent or waiver
shall extend beyond the particular case and purpose involved. No notice or
demand given in any case shall constitute a waiver of the right to take other
action in the same, similar or other instances without such notice or demand.
(b) NOTICES. Any notice, demand, statement, request or consent made
hereunder shall be given and deemed received in accordance with the terms of
Section 9.1 of the Loan Agreement.
(c) GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed in accordance with the
State of California and the applicable law of the United States of America.
(d) INVALID PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during
the term of this Agreement, such provision shall be fully severable and this
Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement, and the
remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and
shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by
its severance from this Agreement, unless such continued effectiveness of this
Agreement, as modified, would be contrary to the basic understandings and
intentions of the parties as expressed herein.
(e) AMENDMENTS. This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in
writing executed by the party or an authorized representative of the party
against whom such amendment is sought to be enforced.
(f) PARTIES BOUND; ASSIGNMENT; JOINT AND SEVERAL. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors, assigns and legal representatives; provided, however, that Carveout
Indemnitor may not, without the prior written consent of Lender (which consent
may be granted or withheld in Lender's sole discretion), assign any of its
rights, powers, duties or obligations hereunder. If Carveout Indemnitor consists
of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such
person or party shall be joint and several.
(g) HEADINGS. Section headings are for convenience of reference only and
shall in no way affect the interpretation of this Agreement.
(h) RECITALS. The recital and introductory paragraphs hereof are a part
hereof, form a basis for this Agreement and shall be considered prima facie
evidence of the facts and documents referred to therein.
(i) COUNTERPARTS. To facilitate execution, this Agreement may be executed
in as many counterparts as may be convenient or required. It shall not be
necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the
signature of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart.
All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single instrument. It shall not
be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more
than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf
of, each of the parties hereto.
(j) RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. If Carveout Indemnitor becomes liable for any
indebtedness owing by Borrower to Lender, by endorsement or otherwise, other
than under this Agreement, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or
affected hereby and the rights of Lender hereunder shall be cumulative of any
and all other rights that Lender may ever have against Carveout Indemnitor. The

with any directive from any Governmental Authority; (f) Indemnitor shall not do,
or allow any Tenant or other user of any Property to do, any act that violates

adversely impairs or may materially and adversely impair the value of any
Property, is contrary to any requirement of any insurer, constitutes a public or
private nuisance, constitutes material waste, violates in any material respect

4. INDEMNIFIED RIGHTS/COOPERATION AND ACCESS. In the event that any Indemnified
Party, based on a good faith determination, has reason to believe that
Indemnitor is not in material compliance with its warranties, covenants and
agreements relating to compliance with any Environmental Laws, then (subject to
the rights of Tenants), any Indemnified Party may cause an engineer or
consultant satisfactory to such Indemnified Party (in the exercise of its
reasonable judgment) to conduct an environmental assessment or audit (the scope
of which shall be determined in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified
Party) including taking samples of soil, groundwater or other water, air, or
building materials or any other testing requested by such Indemnified Party (in
the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party) and may deliver to the other
Indemnified Parties and Indemnitor the results of any such assessment, audit,
sampling or other testing. All costs and expenses incurred by any Indemnified
Party pursuant to this Section 4 shall be paid by the Indemnified Parties unless
(i) the Indemnified Parties have a good faith basis for suspecting that
Indemnitor is not in material compliance with its warranties, covenants and
agreements relating to compliance with Environmental Laws, or (ii) an Event of
Default exists (or is discovered as a result of any such environmental
assessment or audit), in which case the reasonable third party fees and expenses
relating to such environmental assessment or audit shall be paid by Indemnitor
within the Demand Period. Indemnitor shall cooperate with and provide any
Indemnified Party and any such person designated by such Indemnified Party with
access to such Property, subject to the rights of Tenants. Indemnitor covenants
and agrees, at its sole cost and expense, to protect, defend, indemnify, release
and hold Indemnified Parties harmless from and against any and all Losses
imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Parties and
directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way relating to any one or more
of the following: (a) any presence of any Hazardous Substances in, on, above or
under any Property; (b) any past, present or threatened Release in, on, above,
under or from any Property; (c) any actual, proposed or threatened use,
treatment, storage, holding, existence, disposition or other Release,
generation, production, manufacturing, processing, refining, control,
management, abatement, removal, handling, transfer or transportation of any
Hazardous Substances on any Property; (d) any actual or proposed Remediation at
any time in, under, on or above any Property; (e) any past, present or
threatened non-compliance or violations of any Environmental Laws (or permits
issued pursuant to any Environmental Law) in connection with any Property or
operations thereon, including any failure by Indemnitor, any other Borrower
Party, and/or any Tenant or other user of any Property to comply with any order
of any Governmental Authority in connection with any Environmental Laws; (f) the
imposition, recording or filing, or the threatened imposition, recording or
filing, of any Environmental Lien encumbering any Property; (g) any
administrative processes or proceedings or judicial proceedings in any way
connected with any matter addressed in this Agreement concerning Hazardous
Substances; (h) any past, present or threatened injury to, destruction of or
loss of natural resources in any way connected with any Property, including
costs to investigate and assess Losses; (i) any acts of Indemnitor, any other
Borrower Party, and/or any Tenant or other user of any Property in arranging for
disposal or treatment, or arranging with a transporter for transport for
disposal or treatment, of Hazardous Substances directly or indirectly affecting
any Property, at any facility or incineration vessel containing Hazardous
Substances; (j) any acts of Indemnitor, any other Borrower Party, and/or any
Tenant or other user of any Property in accepting any Hazardous Substances
affecting such Property for transport to disposal or treatment facilities,
incineration vessels or sites from which there is a Release, or a threatened
Release of any Hazardous Substance which causes the incurrence of costs for
Remediation; (k) any personal injury, wrongful death, or property or other
damage arising under any statutory or common law or tort law theory, including
damages assessed for private or public nuisance or for the conducting of an
abnormally dangerous activity on or near any Property; and (l) any
misrepresentation set forth in this Agreement or the Loan Agreement or any
breach or failure to perform any warranty, covenant or other obligations
pursuant to this Agreement, the Loan Agreement, the Note or the Mortgage
concerning Hazardous Substances. Nothing contained in this Section 4 shall be
deemed to indemnify the Indemnified Parties for their own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Any Indemnified Party performing any environmental
assessment or audit under this Agreement shall be responsible, at such
Indemnified Party's cost and expense, to promptly restore any applicable
Property to the condition that existed prior to such environmental assessment or
audit as a result of any damage caused by the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnified Party.
5. DUTY TO DEFEND AND ATTORNEYS AND OTHER FEES AND EXPENSES. Upon written
request by any Indemnified Party, Indemnitor shall defend itself and Indemnified
Parties (if requested by any Indemnified Party, in the name of the Indemnified
Party) by attorneys and other professionals approved by the Indemnified Parties
(such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) from and against any action,
suit, claim, demand, dispute or proceeding (collectively, an "Enforcement
Action") arising or in any way connected, whether directly or indirectly, to any
actual or alleged violation of the representations, warranties and covenants in
Sections 2 and 3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) such Enforcement Action
involves the possible imposition of criminal liability on the Indemnified
Parties, (ii) the assumption or control by Indemnitor of the defense of such
Enforcement Action, in the reasonable discretion of the Indemnified Parties,
involves a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor and the Indemnified
Parties with respect to such action or proceeding, or (iii) the Indemnitor or
the attorneys engaged by Indemnitor have, in the reasonable determination of the
Indemnified Parties, taken action or failed to take action which has prejudiced
the defense of the Indemnified Parties or have failed to pursue with reasonable
diligence such defense or the negotiation or settlement of such defense, then
Indemnitor shall be responsible for all of the costs and expenses of the
Indemnified Parties in respect of such defense of the Enforcement Action and
shall pay on demand or, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Indemnified
Parties, reimburse the Indemnified Parties for payments made, for all reasonable
fees and disbursements of attorneys, engineers, environmental consultants,
laboratories and other professionals engaged by and/or on behalf of Indemnified
Parties. Indemnitor may not compromise or settle any such Enforcement Action
without the consent of Indemnitee (which consent may be issued or withheld in
Indemnitee's judgment) unless the claimant agrees as part of the compromise or
settlement that the Indemnified Parties shall have no responsibility or
liability for the payment or discharge of any amount agreed upon or other
obligation to take any other action or any other exposure to liability to such
claimant. Notwithstanding the foregoing and at the option of Indemnified
Parties, if Indemnified Parties engage their own attorneys to defend them from
and against, or assist them in, any Enforcement Action, such Indemnified Parties
and their attorneys shall control the resolution of any Enforcement Action as to
themselves, provided that no compromise or settlement shall be entered without
Indemnitor's consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Within
the Demand Period, Indemnitor shall pay or, in the discretion of the Indemnified
Parties, reimburse the Indemnified Parties for payments made, for all reasonable
fees and disbursements of attorneys, engineers, environmental consultants,
laboratories and other professionals engaged by and/or on behalf of Indemnified
Parties in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.
6. UNIMPAIRED LIABILITY. The liability of Indemnitor under this Agreement
shall in no way be limited or impaired by, and Indemnitor hereby consents to and
agrees to be bound by, any amendment or modification of the provisions of the
Loan Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents. In
addition, the liability of Indemnitor under this Agreement shall in no way be
limited or impaired by (a) any extensions of time for performance required by
the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents,
(b) any sale or transfer of all or part of any Property, whether following
foreclosure of the Mortgage or otherwise, (c) any exculpatory provision in the
Note, the Mortgage, or any of the other Loan Documents otherwise limiting
Indemnitee's recourse to any Property or to any other security for the
Obligations, or limiting Indemnitee's rights to a deficiency judgment against
Indemnitor, (d) the accuracy or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties
made by Indemnitor under the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any of
the other Loan Documents or by Indemnitor herein, (e) the release, waiver or
discharge of any Indemnitor or any other Person from performance or observance
of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or condition contained in any of the
other Loan Documents by operation of law, Indemnitee's voluntary act, or
otherwise, (f) the release or substitution in whole or in part of any security
for the Obligations, (g) Indemnitee's failure to record the Mortgage or file any
UCC financing statements (or Indemnitee's improper recording or filing of any
thereof) or to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security
interest or lien given as security for the Obligations, (h) any exercise or
non-exercise by Indemnitee of any right or privilege under this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents, or (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding
relating to any Indemnitor or any Affiliate of any Indemnitor, or any action by
any trustee or receiver or by any court in any such proceeding; and, in any such
case, whether with or without notice to Indemnitor and with or without
consideration.
7. ENFORCEMENT.
(a) Indemnified Parties may enforce the obligations of Indemnitor under
this Agreement without first resorting to, or exhausting any security or
collateral under, or without first having recourse pursuant to,
the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage, or any of the other Loan Documents
or any Property, through foreclosure proceedings or otherwise, provided,
however, that nothing herein shall inhibit or prevent Indemnitee from suing on
the Note, foreclosing, or exercising any power of sale under, the Mortgage, or
exercising any other rights and remedies thereunder. This Agreement is not
collateral or security for the Obligations, unless Indemnitee expressly elects
in writing to make this Agreement additional collateral or security for the
Obligations, which Indemnitee is entitled to do in its discretion. It is not
necessary for a Potential Default or an Event of Default to have occurred for
Indemnified Parties to exercise their rights pursuant to this Agreement.
Notwithstanding any provision of the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or
any other Loan Document, the obligations pursuant to this Agreement are
exceptions to any non-recourse or exculpation provision of the Loan Documents
(including the terms and conditions set forth in Article 10 of the Loan
Agreement) and Indemnitor is fully and personally liable for such obligations,
and such liability is not limited to the original or amortized principal balance
of the Loan or the value of any Property.
(b) Without limiting any of the remedies provided in the Loan Documents,
Indemnitor acknowledges and agrees that the provisions hereof are environmental
provisions (as defined in Section 736(f)(2) of the California Code of Civil
Procedure) made by Indemnitor relating to the real property security (the
"Environmental Provisions"). Indemnitor's breach of or a failure to comply with
the Environmental Provisions shall constitute a breach of contract entitling
Indemnitee to all remedies provided under Section 736 of the California Code of
Civil Procedure ("Section 736") for the recovery of damages and for the
enforcement of the Environmental Provisions. Pursuant to Section 736,
Indemnitee's action for recovery of damages or enforcement of the Environmental
Provisions shall not constitute an action within the meaning of Section 726(a)
of the California Code of Civil Procedure or constitute a money judgment for a
deficiency or a deficiency judgment within the meaning of Section 580a, 580b,
580d, or 726(b) of the California Code of Civil Procedure. Other than the remedy
provided under Section 736, all remedies provided for by the Loan Documents are
separate and distinct causes of action that are not abrogated, modified, limited
or otherwise affected by the remedies provided under Section 736(a) of the
California Code of Civil Procedure.
8. SURVIVAL. The obligations and liabilities of Indemnitor under this
Agreement shall fully survive indefinitely notwithstanding any termination,
satisfaction, assignment, entry of a judgment of foreclosure, exercise of any
power of sale, or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage.
9. AMOUNTS PAYABLE; INTEREST. Any amounts payable to any Indemnified
Parties under this Agreement shall become due and payable within the Demand
Period, and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the expiration of the
Demand Period until paid in full. Wherever pursuant to this Agreement it is
provided that Indemnitor pay any costs and expenses, such costs and expenses
shall include legal fees and disbursements of Indemnified Parties and shall
include reimbursements for the expenses of the in-house staff.
10. WAIVERS. Indemnitor hereby: (i) waives any right or claim of right to
cause a marshaling of Indemnitor's assets or to cause Indemnitee or other
Indemnified Parties to proceed against any of the security for the Loan before
proceeding under this Agreement against Indemnitor; (ii) relinquishes all rights
and remedies accorded by law to indemnitors or guarantors, except any rights of
subrogation which Indemnitor may have, provided that the indemnity provided for
hereunder shall neither be contingent upon the existence of any such rights of
subrogation nor subject to any claims or defenses whatsoever which may be
asserted in connection with the enforcement or attempted enforcement of such
subrogation rights including any claim that such subrogation rights were
abrogated by any acts of Indemnitee or other Indemnified Parties; (iii) waives
the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a mandatory or compulsory
counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against or by Indemnitee or
other Indemnified Parties; (iv) waives notice of acceptance hereof and of any
action taken or omitted in reliance hereon; (v) waives presentment for payment,
demand of payment, protest or notice of nonpayment or failure to perform or
observe, or other proof, or notice or demand; and (vi) waives all homestead
exemption rights against the obligations hereunder and the benefits of any
statutes of limitations or repose. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Indemnitor hereby agrees to postpone the exercise of any
rights of subrogation with respect to any collateral securing the Obligations
until the Obligations shall have been fully and finally paid.
11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, INDEMNITOR AND
INDEMNITEE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON,
ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL
OR WRITTEN) OR ACTION OR ANY EXERCISE OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THE LOAN OR ANY
PROPERTY (INCLUDING ANY ACTION TO RESCIND OR CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT, AND ANY
CLAIM OR DEFENSE ASSERTING THAT THIS AGREEMENT WAS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED OR IS
OTHERWISE VOID OR VOIDABLE). THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR INDEMNITEE
TO ENTER THIS AGREEMENT.
12. SUBROGATION. Indemnitor shall take any and all reasonable actions,
including institution of legal action against third parties, necessary or
appropriate to obtain reimbursement, payment or compensation from such persons
responsible for the presence of any Hazardous Substances at, in, on, under,
above or near any Property or otherwise obligated by law to bear the cost.
Indemnified Parties shall be and hereby are subrogated to all of Indemnitor's
rights now or hereafter in such claims.
13. INDEMNITOR'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Indemnitor represents
and warrants to and for the benefit of Indemnified Parties that:
(a) it has the full power and authority to execute and deliver this
Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder; and the execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement by Indemnitor has been duly and validly
authorized and all requisite action has been taken by Indemnitor to make this
Agreement valid and binding upon Indemnitor, and enforceable in accordance with
its terms;
(b) its execution of, and compliance with, this Agreement is in the
ordinary course of business of Indemnitor and will not result in the breach of
any term or provision of the charter, by-laws, partnership or trust agreement,
or other governing instrument of Indemnitor or result in the breach of any term
or provision of, or conflict with or constitute a default under, or result in
the acceleration of any obligation under, any agreement, indenture or loan or
credit agreement or other instrument to which Indemnitor or any Property is
subject, or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment or decree to which Indemnitor or any Property is subject;
(c) there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to
Indemnitor's knowledge, threatened against it which, either in any one instance
or in the aggregate, may result in any material adverse change in the business,
operations, financial condition, properties or assets of Indemnitor, or in any
material impairment of the right or ability of Indemnitor to carry on its
business substantially as now conducted, or in any material liability on the
part of Indemnitor, or which would draw into question the validity of this
Agreement or of any action taken or to be taken in connection with the
obligations of Indemnitor contemplated herein, or which would be likely to
impair materially the ability of Indemnitor to perform under the terms of this
Agreement;
(d) it does not believe, nor does it have any reason or cause to believe,
that it cannot perform each and every covenant contained in this Agreement;
(e) no approval, authorization, order, license or consent of, or

approval, authorization or consent of any other party is required in connection
with this Agreement; and
(f) this Agreement constitutes a valid, legal and binding obligation of
Indemnitor, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof, subject
only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting the rights
of creditors generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles
of equity.
14. NO WAIVER. No course of dealing on the part of any Indemnified Party,
nor any failure or delay by any Indemnified Party with respect to exercising any
right, power or privilege of any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents, shall operate as a waiver thereof.
15. NOTICE OF LEGAL ACTIONS. Each party hereto shall, within five (5)
Business Days of receipt thereof, give written notice to the other party hereto
of (a) any notice, advice or other communication from any Governmental Authority
or any source whatsoever with respect to Hazardous Substances on, from or
affecting any Property, and (b) any legal action brought against such party or
related to any Property, with respect to which Indemnitor may have liability
under this Agreement. Such notice shall comply with the provisions of Section
18.
16. TRANSFER OF LOAN. Indemnitee may, at any time, sell, transfer or assign
the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, and any or all servicing rights with respect thereto, or grant
participations therein or issue mortgage pass-through certificates. Indemnitee
may forward to each Investor and each prospective Investor and any servicer, all
documents and information which Indemnitee now has or may hereafter acquire
relating to Indemnitor and any Property, whether furnished by Indemnitor, any
guarantor or otherwise, as Indemnitee determines necessary or desirable.
Indemnitor agrees to cooperate, and agrees to cause any guarantor to cooperate,
with Indemnitee in connection with any transfer made pursuant to this Section
16, including the delivery of an estoppel certificate and such other documents
as may be reasonably requested by Indemnitee. Indemnitor shall also furnish, and
Indemnitor hereby consents to Indemnitee furnishing to such Investors, such
prospective Investors or any servicer, any and all information concerning the
financial condition of Indemnitor and any and all information concerning each
Property and the Leases as may be requested by Indemnitee, any servicer, any
Investor or any prospective Investor in connection with any outsourcing of
servicing, sale, transfer or participation interest. No exercise by Indemnitee
of any transfer rights pursuant to the Loan Documents shall operate to release
or diminish the duties, obligations or liabilities of Indemnitor under this
Agreement unless any such release is expressly granted in writing by Indemnitee.
17. DISCRETION OF INDEMNIFIED PARTIES. Wherever pursuant to this Agreement
(i) Indemnitee (or Indemnified Parties) exercises its judgment, or any right
given to it, to approve or disapprove any item, matter or course of conduct,
(ii) any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Indemnitee (or Indemnified
Parties), or (iii) any other decision or determination is to be made by
Indemnitee (of Indemnified Parties), the decision of Indemnitee to approve or
disapprove, the exercise of its judgment or discretion, all decisions that
arrangements, items, course of conduct or terms are satisfactory or not
satisfactory and all other decisions and determinations made by Indemnitee,
shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of Indemnitee and shall be final
and conclusive, except as may be otherwise expressly and specifically provided
herein.
18. NOTICES. All notices or other written communications hereunder shall be
made in accordance with Section 9.1 of the Loan Agreement.
19. DUPLICATE ORIGINALS; COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of duplicate originals and each duplicate original shall be deemed to
be an original. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of
which counterparts shall be deemed an original instrument and all of which
together shall constitute a single Agreement. The failure of any party hereto to
execute this Agreement, or any counterpart hereof, shall not relieve the other
signatories from their obligations hereunder.
20. NO ORAL CHANGE; ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, and any provisions
hereof, may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or
terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Indemnitor or
any Indemnified Party. Any such modification, amendment, waiver, extension,
change, discharge or termination shall only be effective by an agreement in
writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification,
amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought. This
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof. This Agreement is, and shall be construed to be, in
addition to (and not in lieu of) any and all other duties, responsibilities,
obligations and/or liability which Indemnitor may have to any of Indemnified
Parties pursuant to the other Loan Documents or otherwise. To the extent, if any
that the terms and conditions of this Agreement conflict with the terms and
conditions of any of the other Loan Documents, the terms and conditions imposing
the broader duties, responsibilities, obligations and/or liability on Indemnitor
shall prevail.
21. HEADINGS, ETC. The headings and captions of various paragraphs of this
Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be construed as
defining or limiting, in any way, the scope or intent of the provisions hereof.
22. NUMBER AND GENDER/SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; JOINT AND SEVERAL. All
pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine,
feminine, neuter, singular or plural as the identity of the person or persons
referred to may require. Without limiting the effect of specific references in
any provision of this Agreement, the term "Indemnitor" shall be deemed to refer
to each and every person comprising an Indemnitor from time to time, as the
sense of a particular provision may require, and to include the heirs,
executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of
Indemnitor, all of whom shall be bound by the provisions of this Agreement,
provided that no obligation of Indemnitor may be assigned except with the
written consent of Indemnitee (which may be granted or withheld in Indemnitee's
sole and absolute discretion). Each reference herein to "Indemnitee" shall be
deemed to include its successors and assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of Indemnified Parties and their respective successors and assigns
forever. If Indemnitor consists of more than one person or party, the
obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and
several.
23. RIGHTS CUMULATIVE. The rights and remedies herein provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which Indemnitee has
under the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents or
would otherwise have at law or in equity.
24. INAPPLICABLE PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Agreement is held to
be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable;
the Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provision had never comprised a part thereof; the remaining
provisions thereof shall remain in full effect and shall not be affected by the
illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom; and
in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added
automatically as a part of such Agreement a provision as similar in terms to
such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible to be legal,
valid and enforceable.
25. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed in accordance with the
terms and provisions of the laws of the State of California.
