Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this report on Form 10-Q of Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (“Wells REIT”) other than historical facts may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We intend for all such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements include statements about our future plans, strategies and prospects including, but not limited to, our ability to generate sufficient cash from operating activities to enable us to pay dividends to stockholders; our ability to refinance maturing debt on favorable terms; our ability to maintain compliance with covenants on term debt; the level of capital requirements at our properties; our ability to qualify as a REIT in future periods; and the expected outcome of pending litigation. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as well as known and unknown risks, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of our performance in future periods. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue” or other similar words. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date this report is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We make no representation or warranty (express or implied) about the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements contained in this report on Form 10-Q, and we do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Any such forward-looking statements are subject to unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and are based on a number of assumptions involving judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately. To the extent that our assumptions differ from actual results, our ability to meet such forward-looking statements, including our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations, provide dividends to stockholders and maintain the value of our real estate properties, may be significantly hindered. Following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented in certain forward-looking statements:

General economic risks

•

Adverse changes in general economic conditions or local conditions;

•

Adverse economic conditions affecting the particular industry of one or more of our tenants;

Real estate risks

•

Our ability to achieve appropriate occupancy levels resulting in sufficient rental amounts;

•

Supply of or demand for similar or competing rentable space which may impact our ability to retain or obtain new tenants at lease expiration at acceptable rental amounts;

•

Tenant ability or willingness to satisfy obligations relating to our existing lease agreements;

•

Our potential need to fund tenant improvements, lease-up costs or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flow;

•

Actual property operating expenses, including property taxes, insurance and other costs at our properties may differ from anticipated costs;

•

Our ability to secure adequate insurance at reasonable and appropriate rates to avoid uninsured losses or losses in excess of insured amounts;

•

Discovery of previously undetected environmentally hazardous or other undetected adverse conditions at our properties;

•

Our ability to invest dividend reinvestment plan proceeds to acquire properties at appropriate amounts that provide acceptable returns;

•

Unexpected costs of capital expenditures related to tenant build-out projects or other unforeseen capital expenditures;

•

Our ability to sell a property when desirable at an acceptable return, including the ability of the purchaser to satisfy any continuing obligations to us;

Financing and equity risks

•

Our continued access to adequate credit facilities or other debt financing and refinancing as appropriate;

•

Our ability to pay amounts to our lenders before any distributions to our stockholders;

•

Changes in interest rates related to variable rate debt;

•

Possible requirements by lenders that we enter into restrictive covenants relating to our operations and our ability to satisfy such restrictions;

•

Possible limitations on our ability to borrow funds in the future that may result from our participation in the Section 1031 exchange program sponsored by affiliates of Wells Capital, Inc. (the “Advisor”);

•

Future demand for our equity securities through our dividend reinvestment plan;

•

Potential changes to our share redemption program or dividend reinvestment plan;

•

The amount of redemptions or prices paid for redeemed shares approved by our board of directors in future periods;

Other operational risks

•

Our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT for tax purposes;

•

Our dependency on our Advisor, its key personnel and its affiliates for various administrative services;

•

Our Advisor’s ability to attract and retain high quality personnel who can provide acceptable service levels to us and generate economies of scale for us over time;

•

Administrative operating expenses, including increased expenses associated with operating as a public company, may differ from our estimates;

•

Changes in governmental, tax, real estate, environmental and zoning laws and regulations and the related costs of compliance;

•

Our ability to maintain compliance with any governmental, tax, real estate, environmental and zoning laws and regulations in the event that such position is questioned by the respective authority; and

•

Actions of our joint venture partners, including potential bankruptcy, business interests differing from ours or other actions that may adversely impact the operations of our joint ventures.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2004

(unaudited)

1. Organization

General

Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (“Wells REIT”) is a Maryland corporation that engages in the acquisition and ownership of commercial real estate properties throughout the United States, including properties that are under construction, are newly constructed, or have operating histories for investment purposes. Wells REIT was incorporated in 1997, commenced operations on June 5, 1998, and qualifies as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. Wells REIT conducts business primarily through Wells Operating Partnership, L.P. (“Wells OP”), a Delaware limited partnership, or through Wells OP’s subsidiaries. Wells REIT is the sole general partner of Wells OP and Wells Capital, Inc. (the “Advisor”) is the sole limited partner of Wells OP. See Note 6 included herein for a further discussion of the Advisor. Wells OP owns certain properties directly or through wholly owned subsidiaries and has also entered into certain joint ventures with real estate limited partnerships sponsored by the Advisor, as well as certain joint ventures with parties not otherwise affiliated with Wells REIT or the Advisor. References to Wells REIT herein shall include all subsidiaries of Wells REIT, including Wells OP, its subsidiaries and any consolidated joint ventures.

At June 30, 2004, Wells REIT owned interests in 112 properties either directly or through joint ventures comprising approximately 24.9 million square feet of commercial office and industrial space located in 26 states and the District of Columbia. At June 30, 2004, these properties were approximately 97% leased.

Since its inception, Wells REIT has completed four public offerings of common stock at $10 per share providing approximately $4.8 billion in offering proceeds. Out of these proceeds, Wells REIT paid costs associated with the offerings of (1) approximately $163.2 million in acquisition and advisory fees and acquisition expenses, (2) approximately $453.7 million in selling commissions and dealer manager fees, and (3) approximately $62.1 million in organization and other offering costs. In addition, Wells REIT used approximately $152.1 million to redeem shares pursuant to Wells REIT’s share redemption program. The remaining offering proceeds of approximately $4.0 billion were primarily used to fund the purchase of real estate assets. As of June 30, 2004, no additional shares will be offered under these four prior public offerings.

Wells REIT registered an additional 100 million shares of common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for future issuances to our stockholders under our dividend reinvestment plan pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Commission File No. 333-114212), which was filed and became effective with the SEC on April 5, 2004.

Wells REIT’s stock is not listed on a national exchange. However, Wells REIT’s Articles of Incorporation currently require Wells REIT to begin the process of liquidating its investments and distributing the resulting proceeds to the stockholders if its shares are not listed on a national exchange by January 30, 2008. Wells REIT’s Articles of Incorporation can only be amended by a proxy vote of Wells REIT’s stockholders.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of Wells REIT have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. Results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of full year results. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in Wells REIT’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Income Taxes

Wells REIT has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and has operated as such beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 1998. To qualify as a REIT, Wells REIT must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of Wells REIT’s annual REIT taxable income (excluding capital gains) to stockholders. As a REIT, Wells REIT is generally not subject to federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Wells REIT is subject to certain state and local taxes related to the operations of properties in certain locations, which has been provided for in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Stockholders’ Equity

The par value of investor proceeds raised is classified as common stock, with the remainder allocated to additional paid-in capital.

Wells REIT maintains a share redemption program that allows stockholders to redeem shares held at a specified price within certain limitations. Under Accounting Series Release No. 268, “Presentation in Financial Statements of Redeemable Preferred Stock,” if the redemption of shares is outside the control of the issuer, such shares are required to be classified as mezzanine, or temporary, equity. Wells REIT’s share redemption program was amended for redemptions made beginning in January 2004. The amended plan modified the share redemption program by, among other things, removing the discretionary feature of approving redemption requests. Redemptions are limited to the aggregate proceeds received from the dividend reinvestment plan. Since cumulative funds received under the dividend reinvestment plan totaled approximately $297.2 million and aggregate redemptions to date totaled approximately $152.1 million at June 30, 2004, the difference of approximately $145.1 million has been recorded as redeemable common shares on the consolidated balance sheet and statement of stockholders’ equity.

Change in Accounting Estimate

In the first quarter of 2004, Wells REIT completed a review of its real estate related depreciation by performing an analysis of the components of each property type in an effort to determine weighted average composite useful lives of its real estate assets. As a result of this review, Wells REIT changed its estimate of the weighted average composite useful lives for building assets. Effective January 1, 2004, for all building assets, Wells REIT extended the weighted average composite useful life to 40 years from 25 years. This change resulted in an increase to net income of approximately $13.7 million or $0.03 per share and $27.7 million or $0.06 per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. Wells REIT believes the change reflects the estimated useful lives of the assets and is consistent with prevailing industry practice.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts, as reported, have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation, including but not limited to the reclassification noted in the following paragraph.

Through the first quarter 2004, Wells REIT and its unconsolidated joint ventures have reported the amortization of the fair values of in-place leases, including opportunity costs associated with lost rentals that are avoided by acquiring in-place leases and tenant relationships, as an adjustment to rental income in the consolidated statements of income. Beginning with the second quarter 2004, Wells REIT and its unconsolidated joint ventures are presenting this amortization as amortization expense in the consolidated statements of income, and have reclassified such amortization from rental income to amortization expense for all periods previously presented. The period of amortization continues to be the term of the respective lease and results in no change in previously reported net income. Additionally, in the consolidated balance sheets, the intangible lease liabilities have historically been netted with the intangible lease assets. Beginning in the second quarter 2004, Wells REIT is presenting below-market leases separately in the consolidated balance sheets as intangible lease liabilities. As such, these amounts included in the December 31, 2003 consolidated balance sheet have been reclassified to intangible lease liabilities to conform to the presentation in the current period.

2. Real Estate Assets

Disposition

On June 3, 2004, Wells REIT sold a four-story office building and 5.2 acres of adjacent land in Tampa, Florida, for gross sales proceeds of approximately $31.2 million. The property, 5104 Eisenhower Boulevard, was acquired in December 1998 for approximately $21.2 million. The transaction resulted in a gain of approximately $11.6 million.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” requires, among other things, that the operating results of real estate assets sold be included in discontinued operations in the statements of income for all periods presented.

(2)	Wells REIT terminated this facility in 2004.

(3)	In accordance with GAAP, a fair value calculation of the loan was performed upon acquisition and resulted in a step-up of approximately $4.0 million. At June 30, 2004, the outstanding principal balance on the note payable is approximately $27.2 million.

(4)	Wells REIT entered into an interest rate swap to hedge the term loan, resulting in Wells REIT paying a fixed rate of 2.75% of the balance outstanding at each payment date. The swap expires in July 2005.

During the three months ended June 30, 2004, Wells REIT entered into two long-term debt facilities for $200.0 million and $350.0 million, respectively. Each facility consists of non-recourse debt and is collateralized by specific properties (mentioned above). The facilities are also subject to covenant compliance, which includes, but is not limited to, maintaining certain operating ratios at the property level that are customary for facilities of this nature.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

Properties Under Construction

As of June 30, 2004, Wells REIT had two executed construction agreements with an unrelated third party for the purpose of constructing one building (“Merck New Jersey”) and one building expansion (“TRW Denver”). The table below details the status of the properties under construction as of June 30, 2004:


Property	Total Projected Cost		Construction Costs to Date		Expected Future Costs		Expected Completion Date
Merck New Jersey	$	21.2 million	$	6.3 million	$	14.9 million	June 2005
TRW Denver	$	15.0 million	$	0.6 million	$	14.4 million	June 2005

Properties Under Contract

As of June 30, 2004, Wells REIT had a contract to acquire one building for a total purchase price of approximately $30.0 million. This property was acquired subsequent to period end as discussed in Note 8. Approximately $0.5 million was held in escrow related to this acquisition at June 30, 2004, which was included in prepaid and other assets in the consolidated balance sheet.

Commitments Under Existing Lease Agreements

Certain lease agreements include provisions that, at the option of the tenant, may obligate Wells REIT to expend certain amounts of capital to expand an existing property, construct on adjacent property or provide other expenditures for the benefit of the tenant, in favor of additional rental revenue. At June 30, 2004, no tenants have exercised such options which have not been fully satisfied as of that date, except as noted above.

Earn-out Agreements

Wells REIT acquired certain properties subject to purchase agreements that require Wells REIT to pay additional consideration to the seller provided certain unleased space is leased within a specified period after closing based on a pre-determined formula. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, no payments were made under these agreements. Subsequent to period end, approximately $1.2 million was incurred under the earn-out agreement in place at the GMAC building.

Leasehold Property Obligations

Certain properties are subject to ground leases with various expiration dates as disclosed in the Wells REIT’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Take-out Purchase and Escrow Agreement

During the second quarter of 2004, Wells REIT entered into two Take-out Purchase and Escrow Agreements (the “Take-out Agreements”) with programs sponsored by an affiliate of the Advisor. Under the terms of the Take-out Agreements, Wells REIT has committed to purchase any un-sold co-tenancy interests in properties acquired by subsidiaries of Wells Management Company, Inc. (“Wells Management”), an affiliate of the Advisor (see Note 6 below), by the Offering Period End Date, as defined (see table below). Wells Management acquired these properties with the intent of selling co-tenancy interests in each property to persons seeking qualified replacement property pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code. In consideration for these commitments, Wells REIT received fees aggregating approximately $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004.

Litigation

On October 9, 2003, Stephen L. Flood, the Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, Controller, and the Luzerne County Retirement Board (“Luzerne Board”) on behalf of the Luzerne County Employee Retirement System (“Plan”) filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court, Middle District of Pennsylvania against 26 separate defendants including Wells REIT, Wells Investment Securities, Inc. (“WIS”), the dealer manager, and Wells Real Estate Funds, Inc., the parent company of both the Advisor and WIS (“Wells Defendants”). The complaint alleges, among other things, (1) that certain former members of the Luzerne Board named as defendants invested $10 million in Wells REIT common stock on behalf of the Plan, (2) that certain former board members of the Luzerne Board named as defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the Plan by, among other things, permitting the investment of the Plan’s funds in investments not suitable for the Plan because they were long-term illiquid investments, permitting the Plan to pay excessive fees and commissions to co-defendants, and accepting political contributions in exchange for awarding advisory and management agreements, (3) that the Wells Defendants and others knew or should have known that the investment, and the fees and commissions associated with the investment, was not a proper investment for the Plan because it was a long-term illiquid investment, (4) that the Wells Defendants and others knew or should have known that certain Luzerne Board members and certain investment advisors and managers were breaching their fiduciary duties to the Plan, (5) that the defendants engaged in and conspired to engage in an improper scheme to intentionally defraud the Plan and (6) that the investment was not approved by a majority of the Luzerne Board at a public meeting and, consequently, the investment was an inappropriate and void action. The Plan is seeking damages of not less than $25 million, treble damages and punitive damages from all defendants on a joint and several liability basis. Management believes that this lawsuit is without merit with respect to the Wells Defendants. While it is premature to determine the likely outcome of this lawsuit, management does not believe that a reserve for a loss contingency is necessary.

6. Related-Party Transactions

Advisory Agreement

Wells REIT has entered into an Advisory Agreement with the Advisor, which entitles the Advisor to specified fees in consideration for certain services with regard to the offering of shares to the public and investment of funds in real estate projects. The current Advisory Agreement has been extended by our board of directors until October 25, 2004.

Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, Wells REIT is required to pay the Advisor the following for services rendered:

•

Acquisition and advisory fees and acquisition expenses of 3.5% of gross offering proceeds, subject to certain limitations;

•

Reimbursement of organization and offering costs paid by the Advisor on behalf of Wells REIT, not to exceed 3% of gross offering proceeds;

•

For any property sold by Wells REIT, a disposition fee of the lesser of 50% of a competitive real estate commission or 3.0% of the sales price of the property, subordinated to the payment of dividends to stockholders equal to the sum of the stockholders’ invested capital plus an 8% return on invested capital;

•

Incentive fee of 10% of net sales proceeds remaining after stockholders have received distributions equal to the sum of the stockholders’ invested capital plus an 8% return of invested capital; and

•

Listing fee of 10% of the excess by which the market value of the stock plus dividends paid prior to listing exceeds the sum of 100% of the invested capital plus an 8% return on invested capital.

Acquisition and advisory fees and acquisition expenses, as well as organizational and offering costs are shown below (in thousands) for the periods presented:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2004		2003		2004		2003

Organizational and offering costs	$	228	$	5,698	$	504	$	10,489

Wells REIT incurred no disposition, incentive or listing fees during the six months ended June 30, 2004 or 2003.

Under an agreement which may be cancelled by either party with thirty days’ notice, the Advisor has agreed to reduce the acquisition and advisory fees by the amounts attributable to shares redeemed under the share redemption program as shown below (in thousands) for the periods presented:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2004		2003		2004		2003

Reduction of acquisition & advisory fee	$	1,099	$	632	$	3,062	$	1,085

Administrative Services Reimbursement

Wells REIT has no direct employees. The employees of the Advisor and Wells Management perform a full range of real estate services including leasing and property management, accounting, asset management and investor relations for Wells REIT. The Advisor and Wells Management bill Wells REIT for their services based on time spent by administrative personnel. These expenses are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income. These expenses totaled $2.0 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $3.7 million and $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Asset and Property Management Agreement

Wells REIT has entered into an asset and property management agreement with Wells Management. In consideration for asset management services and for supervising the management and leasing of Wells REIT’s properties, Wells REIT pays asset and property management fees to Wells Management an amount equal to the lesser of (a) 4.5% of gross revenues or (b) 0.6% (per annum) of the net asset value of the properties (excluding vacant properties) owned by Wells REIT. These expenses totaled $5.1 million and $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $10.2 million and $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Additionally, a separate fee for the initial lease-up of newly constructed properties is generally paid in conjunction with the receipt of the first month’s rent. No such costs were incurred in the three or six months ended June 30, 2004. However, these costs totaled approximately $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively.

Dealer Manager Agreement

Wells REIT entered into a dealer manager agreement with WIS, whereby WIS performed dealer manager services for offerings of Wells REIT. For these services, WIS earned selling commissions of approximately 7% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the shares of Wells REIT, the majority of which have been reallowed to participating broker-dealers. The amount of these commissions is shown below (in thousands) for the periods presented:


	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2004			2003			2004			2003
Commissions	$	3,187		$	43,225		$	7,061		$	73,100
Portion of commissions reallowed		In excess of 99	%		In excess of 99	%		In excess of 99	%		In excess of 99	%

Additionally, WIS earned a dealer manager fee of 2.5% of the gross offering proceeds at the time the shares are sold. Under the dealer manager agreement, up to 1.5% of gross offering proceeds may be reallowed to participating broker-dealers. Under an additional agreement, WIS has agreed to reduce the dealer manager fee by 2.5% of the gross redemptions for shares redeemed under Wells REIT’s share redemption plan which may be cancelled by either party with thirty days’ notice. The amount of these fees, reductions, and reallowances are shown below (in thousands) for the periods presented:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2004		2003		2004		2003
Dealer manager fees	$	1,138	$	14,986	$	2,522	$	25,332
Reallowance of fees to broker dealers	$	554	$	7,164	$	1,255	$	12,117
Reduction in fees related to share redemption	$	785	$	451	$	2,187	$	775

Due From Affiliates

Due from affiliates included in the consolidated balance sheets represents (1) Wells REIT’s share of the cash to be distributed from its joint venture investments, (2) amounts owed by the Advisor and WIS relating to share redemptions, and (3) other amounts payable to Wells REIT from other related parties.

7. Economic Dependency

Wells REIT has engaged Wells Management and the Advisor to provide asset management services and supervise the management and leasing of properties owned by Wells REIT as well as other administrative responsibilities for Wells REIT including accounting services and investor relations. As a result of these relationships, Wells REIT is dependent upon Wells Management, the Advisor and other affiliates of the Advisor to provide certain services which are essential to Wells REIT including certain asset management and property management services, asset acquisition and disposition services and other administrative responsibilities under agreements, some of which have terms of one year or less. In the event that these companies were unable to provide Wells REIT with the respective services, Wells REIT would be required to find alternative providers of these services.

By Order dated June 3, 2004, the Superior Court of Gwinnett County, Georgia, dismissed, without prejudice, the putative class action complaint filed on or about March 12, 2004 against Leo F. Wells, III, the Advisor, and certain affiliates of the Advisor relating to Wells Real Estate Fund I, a public limited partnership and affiliate of the Advisor (Hendry et al. v. Leo F. Wells, III et al., Superior Court of Gwinnett County, Georgia, Civil Action No. 04-A-2791 2).

8. Subsequent Events

On July 7, 2004, Wells REIT purchased a four-story office building containing approximately 210,000 rentable square feet located on an approximately 14-acre tract of land at 1075 West Entrance Drive in Auburn Hills, Michigan (“1075 West Entrance Building”). The purchase price of the 1075 West Entrance Building was approximately $29.6 million, plus closing costs, which was partially funded through the assumption of a $14.5 million loan secured by the property. The loan carries an annual interest rate of 8.2% and matures in January 2012. The 1075 West Entrance Building, which was built in 2001, is entirely leased to Electronic Data Systems Corporation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our accompanying financial statements and notes thereto.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

From the commencement of our initial public offering in January 1998 through December 31, 2003, we raised significant funds through the sale of our common stock in four public offerings. Proceeds from these sales of common stock, net of offering costs and expenses, were used primarily for the acquisition of real estate properties and for certain capital expenditures identified at the time of acquiring certain properties. We do not anticipate receiving significant proceeds in the future from the sale of our common stock as all remaining public offering shares under the fourth offering were sold during the year ended December 31, 2003. We expect to continue to receive proceeds from shares issued under our dividend reinvestment plan; however, a substantial portion of these funds will be used to fund redemptions of our shares of common stock as approved by our board of directors.

We expect that our primary source of future cash flows will be cash provided by operating activities that are primarily generated from the operations of our properties and distributions from joint ventures in which we hold an interest. Additionally, we expect to raise a limited amount of funds through our dividend reinvestment plan (net of redemptions paid), and we may generate cash through the selective and strategic sale of certain operating properties. Dividends paid will be dependent upon the amount of cash we generate from operating activities and on our expectations of future cash flows and determination of near term cash needs for capital improvements, tenant re-leasing, share redemptions and debt repayments. To the extent the expected cash available changes significantly, the dividends declared by the board of directors may be adjusted.

Short–Term Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we generated approximately $166.3 million of cash flow from operating activities. This cash was generated primarily from revenues at our properties and cash flow distributions from our unconsolidated joint ventures net of direct property operating expenses, management fees, general administrative expenses, and interest expense. From cash flows from operating activities, we paid dividends to stockholders of approximately $162.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we raised approximately $100.9 million from issuances of common stock (primarily pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan), substantially all of which was used to redeem shares pursuant to our share redemption program. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we raised approximately $179.1 million from notes payable and lines of credit. Of this amount, we repaid all of our existing line of credit debt, extinguishing the Bank of America $500 million facility in May 2004. In addition, we paid $20.4 million in offering related costs and $21.1 million in acquisition and advisory fees. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we incurred approximately $10.0 million in capital expenditures at our existing properties, excluding the build to suit and expansion projects as discussed in Note 5 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. At June 30, 2004, we had approximately $82.7 million in cash and cash equivalents.

On June 3, 2004, we sold a four-story office building and 5.2 acres of adjacent land in Tampa, Florida, for proceeds of approximately $30.6 million. The property, 5104 Eisenhower Boulevard, was acquired in December 1998 for approximately $21.2 million.

On April 20, 2004, we closed on a $200.0 million 10-year term loan collateralized by the Aon Center Chicago Building, and on May 25, 2004, we obtained a $350 million 10-year term loan facility with Morgan Stanley. The $350 million 10-year term loan is non-recourse to Wells REIT and is secured by first priority mortgages against certain properties as discussed in Note 3 of the accompanying notes to our consolidated financial statements. We used a substantial portion of the proceeds from the $200 million and $350 million 10-year term loans to repay in full and terminate our existing $500 million credit facility with Bank of America N.A. and reduce our exposure under other lines of credit.

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, investors redeemed approximately $87.5 million in shares under the terms of our share redemption program. Under the program, there was an aggregate of approximately $97.2 million available for redemptions in 2004, of which 20% of this amount has been set aside to fund redemptions upon the death of a stockholder. During the second quarter of 2004, we reached our annual redemption limit for 2004, excluding those shares set aside for redemptions upon the death of a stockholder. Accordingly, we will be unable to honor any additional redemption requests this year, except for redemption requests relating to the death of a stockholder. Subsequent redemption requests made in 2004 will not be eligible for redemption until the first quarter of 2005, subject to our board’s ability to modify the terms of or terminate our share redemption program, which may include changing the redemption price paid for shares redeemed in the future, with 30 days’ notice at any time in its discretion.

Over the next twelve months, we do not anticipate any significant changes to our portfolio or financing arrangements. We project that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to maintain our dividend, as well as make necessary capital improvements at our properties. We do not anticipate substantial changes to our debt structure, as most of the outstanding borrowings are now in long-term, fixed rate facilities. Any excess cash provided from the dividend reinvestment program in the future, after redemptions and capital expenditures, could be used to fund further acquisitions, as appropriate investment properties are identified. We acquired one property in July 2004 for a purchase price of approximately $29.6 million, as discussed in Note 8 of the accompanying notes to our consolidated financial statements, but do not have further properties identified for purchase as of the date of this report. Cash flows from operations in future periods should remain relatively consistent with the six months ended June 30, 2004; however, cash flows from investing and financing activities should decrease as the portfolio has generally completed its acquisition and capital raising phase and entered into long-term fixed rate debt facilities.

Long–Term Liquidity and Capital Resources

We expect that our future sources of capital will be derived from net cash flows from property operations, proceeds from secured or unsecured financings from banks and other lenders, shares issued under our dividend reinvestment plan, net of share redemptions, and the selective and strategic sale of properties.

We anticipate our future long-term liquidity requirements will include, but not be limited to, scheduled debt maturities, renovations, expansions and other significant capital improvements at our properties and property acquisitions and investments in real estate ventures. Since our fourth offering of common stock closed, we anticipate real estate acquisition activity to decrease significantly from the pace in 2003.

We expect substantially all net cash from operations will be used to pay dividends after payment of operating expenses and certain capital expenditures at our properties. To the degree that cash flows provided by operations are lower due to lower returns on properties, dividends paid may be lower. We anticipate a substantial portion of proceeds raised from sales of shares under our dividend reinvestment plan will be used to fund redemptions with any excess being utilized for capital improvements or expansion at our properties or to fund or partially fund new property acquisitions. We do not expect any significant increase in our ratio of borrowings to total assets in the future, so we do not expect borrowings to be a significant new source of capital for us. Our cash flow from operations depends significantly on market rents and the ability of tenants to make rental payments. We believe that the diversity of our tenant base and the focus placed on relatively high credit quality tenants helps mitigate the risk of tenant bankruptcies. Conversely, economic downturns in general or in one or more of our core markets could adversely impact the ability of our tenants to make lease payments and our ability to re-lease space on favorable terms when leases expire. In the event of either situation, our cash flow and consequently our ability to meet capital needs and maintain distributions to stockholders at current levels would be adversely affected.

All of our debt outstanding at June 30, 2004 is long-term debt with fixed interest rates and maturities ranging from 2007 to 2028. Our secured line of credit with SouthTrust Bank (no amounts outstanding at June 30, 2004) was extended through September 2004. In the second quarter of 2005, the $50.0 million (no amounts outstanding at June 30, 2004) secured line of credit, also with Bank of America N.A., will expire. We are currently investigating opportunities to replace or extend these facilities to provide cash on a short-term basis as needed for future periods that exceed our current borrowings.

Results of Operations

As of June 30, 2004, we owned interests in 112 real estate properties that were approximately 97% leased. Our results of operations have changed significantly for each period presented primarily as a result of the additional properties acquired during the periods subsequent to December 31, 2002. We expect virtually all components of the statement of income will increase in 2004 as compared to 2003 as a result of owning real estate assets acquired during the year ended December 31, 2003 for a full year, but relationships, as noted below, between the components should remain comparable. However, we do not anticipate results of operations in future periods to change significantly from the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 at this time, unless identified below. We do not expect that the operating results of individual properties will change significantly in the near term, as the rental revenues are generally based on long-term leases that do not allow for significant increases in rental income and the majority of our in-place leases do not expire in the near term. Additionally, we generally do not expect a significant increase in operating expenses at existing properties, but to the extent that operating expenses do increase, the majority of our in-place leases have clauses that require the tenants to bear the substantial majority of the burden of such increases.

Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2004 vs. the three months ended June 30, 2003

Rental income increased by $53.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 to $121.6 million from $68.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Of this increase, $52.0 million relates to properties acquired or developed subsequent to March 31, 2003. Tenant reimbursements increased by $15.2 million, during the three months ended June 30, 2004 to $31.4 million from $16.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Substantially all of this increase relates to properties acquired or developed subsequent to March 31, 2003. Tenant reimbursements were equivalent to 67% and 66% of the property operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Lease termination income was $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The income primarily relates to one transaction, the termination of a portion of the Metris Direct, Inc. lease at the 10900 Wayzata Boulevard Building (f/k/a the Metris Minnesota Building). At the time of the lease termination, a new long-term lease was executed with Siemens Real Estate, Inc. for all the vacated space. There were no termination fees recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2003. Lease termination income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 is not expected to be comparable to future periods as such income will be dependent upon the execution of such agreements that are deemed in the best interest of the portfolio over the long-term.

Property operating expenses increased by $21.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 to $46.2 million from $24.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Of this increase, $21.5 million relates to properties acquired or developed subsequent to March 31, 2003. Property operating costs represented approximately 30% and 29% of the sum of the rental income and tenant reimbursements revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Asset and property management fees increased by $2.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 to $5.9 million from $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Of this increase, $2.5 million relates to properties acquired or developed subsequent to March 31, 2003. Asset and property management fees as a percentage of the sum of rental income and tenant reimbursements revenue amounts for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, were equivalent to approximately 4% for both periods.

General and administrative expense increased by $2.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 to $4.3 million from $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in stockholders and related reporting costs, as well as an increase in administrative salary reimbursements related to a larger portfolio as compared to prior year. General and administrative expense represents approximately 3% and 2% of total property revenues (excluding lease termination income) for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Depreciation expense decreased by $0.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 to $24.3 million from $24.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This decrease is primarily due to the change in depreciable lives of real estate assets effective January 1, 2004, partially offset by the acquisition of properties since March 31, 2003. The change

in depreciable lives during the current period resulted in approximately $13.7 million less depreciation than if no change in depreciable lives had occurred, as discussed in Note 1 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The depreciation for properties acquired after March 31, 2003 would have increased by $13.2 million, absent any change in depreciable lives from 25 years to 40 years. Depreciation expense represented approximately 20% and 36% of rental income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, with the change primarily due to the change in depreciable lives.

Amortization increased by $16.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 to $16.3 million from $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily due to the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations” (“FAS 141”), resulting in more acquired assets being classified as intangible lease assets and lease origination assets compared to prior periods resulting in additional amortization expense, as well as the signing of certain second-generation leases at some of our properties and initial leases at recently developed properties. It is expected that amortization of deferred lease costs and intangible lease assets will increase during the remainder of 2004 compared to the same periods in 2003 as a full period of amortization expense is recognized relating to our 2003 property acquisitions and as more second-generation leases are entered into in future periods.

Interest expense increased by $7.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 to $11.6 million from $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Interest expense on the bonds related to the Ingram Micro Building and ISS Atlanta Buildings and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 were comparable. Interest expense related to third parties for the three months ended June 30, 2004 increased as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2003, due to significantly higher average amounts of borrowings outstanding and comparable interest rates during the two periods. Interest expense in the future will be dependent upon the amount of borrowings outstanding, current interest rates, and the deferred financing costs associated with obtaining debt facilities. Interest expense in future quarters is expected to be somewhat higher than the three months ended June 30, 2004 as we entered into certain long-term debt facilities that have higher interest rates than the rates that we experienced for the first part of the quarter under our lines of credit in order to mitigate our exposure to rising interest rates.

Interest and other income increased by $0.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 to $1.7 million from $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Interest income of $1.1 million in each period was attributable to interest on the bonds related to the Ingram Micro Building and ISS Atlanta Buildings for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, which is offset by the related interest expense associated with the bonds resulting in no net impact to our net income. The remainder in each period represents interest earned on cash generated from operations between distribution payments. The level of interest income in future periods will primarily be dependent upon the amount of operating cash on hand and is not expected to be significant or change significantly from the amount earned during the three months ended June 30, 2004. In addition to interest income, during the three months ended June 30, 2004, we earned approximately $0.4 million of take out fees related to our participation in the Advisor’s 1031 Program which may not be indicative of amounts earned in future periods as such income is dependent upon the continuation and growth of the program and our continued involvement.

Equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures was $1.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 and is not expected to change significantly in future periods absent any additional investment in unconsolidated joint ventures or unexpected changes in the operations of the underlying properties.

Loss on extinguishment of debt increased by $1.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 to $1.7 million from $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. In May 2004, we repaid in full and terminated our $500 million credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. and charged $1.7 million in associated unamortized deferred financing costs to earnings. In April 2003, we terminated our $110.0 million credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. and charged $0.5 million in associated unamortized deferred financing costs to earnings. Loss on extinguishment of debt for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 is not expected to be indicative of amounts in future periods as such costs are generally dependent upon altering our financing structure and we have no plans for significantly changing our current financing structure.

Discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were $11.9 million, consisting entirely of operations and the disposition of the Eisenhower Boulevard Building as discussed in Note 2 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Net operations for the period from April 1, 2004 through the date of sale, June 3, 2004, and the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The gain recognized on the sale of the property was $11.6 million. There were no dispositions for the three months ended June 30, 2003.

Earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was $0.14 compared to $0.10 for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily a result of the recognition of lease termination income related to the Metris lease termination, and the gain on sale of the Eisenhower Boulevard Building occurring in the second quarter 2004, which together generated approximately $0.04 net income per share. Earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2004 reflects the change in depreciable lives of real estate assets from 25 years to 40 years which resulted in an increase in earnings of approximately $0.03 per share, that was essentially offset by the impact of the increased amortization of $0.03 per share during the three months ended June 30, 2004 as a result of FAS 141 adoption. Other than these items, operations remained relatively consistent on a per share basis and would not be expected to change significantly from earnings of $0.10 per share per quarter.

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2004 vs. the six months ended June 30, 2003

Rental income increased by $119.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $241.1 million from $121.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Of this increase, $119.1 million relates to properties acquired or developed subsequent to December 31, 2002. Tenant reimbursements increased by $38.0 million, during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $63.4 million from $25.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Substantially all of this increase relates to properties acquired or developed subsequent to December 31, 2002. Tenant reimbursements were equivalent to 69% and 65% of the property operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Lease termination income was $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The income primarily relates to one transaction, the termination of a portion of the Metris Direct, Inc. lease at the 10900 Wayzata Boulevard Building (f/k/a the Metris Minnesota Building). At the time of the lease termination, a new long-term lease was executed with Siemens Real Estate, Inc. for all the vacated space. No lease termination events occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2003. Lease termination for the six months ended June 30, 2004 is not expected to be comparable to future periods as such income will be dependent upon the execution of such agreements that are deemed in the best interest of the portfolio over the long-term.

Property operating expenses increased by $52.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $91.5 million from $38.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Of this increase, $52.3 million relates to properties acquired or developed subsequent to December 31, 2002. Property operating costs represented 30% and 26% of the sum of the rental income and tenant reimbursements revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The increase in property operating costs as a percentage of the sum of rental income and tenant reimbursements is primarily due to the acquisition of certain full-service multi-tenant properties in 2003 that have a significantly higher ratio of property operating costs to revenues.

Asset and property management fees increased by $5.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $11.4 million from $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Of this increase, $5.5 million relates to properties acquired or developed subsequent to December 31, 2002. Asset and property management fees as a percentage of the sum of rental income and tenant reimbursements revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, were equivalent to approximately 4% for both periods.

General and administrative expense increased by $3.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $7.6 million from $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in stockholders and related reporting costs, as well as an increase in administrative salary reimbursements related to a larger portfolio as compared to prior year. General and administrative expense represents approximately 2% and 3% of total property revenues (excluding lease termination income) for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Depreciation expense increased by $4.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $48.3 million from $43.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily due to the acquisition of properties since December 31, 2002, partially offset by the change in depreciable lives of real estate assets effective January 1, 2004. The change in depreciable lives during the current period resulted in approximately $27.7 million less depreciation than if no

change in depreciable lives had occurred, as discussed in Note 1 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The depreciation for properties acquired after December 31, 2002 would have increased by $32.1 million, absent any change in depreciable lives from 25 years to 40 years. Depreciation expense represented approximately 20% and 36% of rental income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, with the change primarily due to the change in depreciable lives.

Amortization increased by $31.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $31.8 million from $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The increase is primarily due to the adoption of FAS 141, resulting in more acquired assets being classified as intangible lease assets and lease origination assets compared to prior periods resulting in additional amortization expense, as well as the signing of second-generation leases at some of our properties and initial leases at recently developed properties. It is expected that amortization of deferred leasing costs and intangible lease assets will increase during the remainder of 2004 compared to the same periods in 2003 as a full period of amortization expense is recognized relating to our 2003 property acquisitions and as more second-generation leases are entered into in future periods.

Interest expense increased by $12.4 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2004 to $19.3 million from $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Interest expense on the bonds related to the Ingram Micro Building and ISS Atlanta Buildings and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 are comparable. Interest expense related to third parties for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2003, due to significantly higher average amounts of borrowings outstanding and comparable interest rates during the two periods. Interest expense in future quarters is expected to be somewhat higher than the six months ended June 30, 2004 as we entered into certain long-term debt facilities that have higher interest rates than the rates that we experienced for the part of the year under our lines of credit in order to mitigate our exposure to rising interest rates.

Interest and other income increased $0.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $3.0 million from $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Interest income of approximately $2.2 million in each period was attributable to interest on the bonds related to the Ingram Micro Building and ISS Atlanta Buildings for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, which is offset by the related interest expense associated with the bonds resulting in no net impact to our net income. The remainder in each period represents interest earned on cash generated from operations between distribution payments. The level of interest income in future periods will primarily be dependent upon the amount of operating cash on hand and is not expected to be significant or change significantly from the amount earned during the six months ended June 30, 2004. In addition to interest income, during the six months ended June 30, 2004, we earned approximately $0.4 million of take out fees related to our participation in the Advisor’s 1031 Program which may not be indicative of amounts earned in future periods as such income is dependent upon the continuation and growth of the program and our continued involvement.

Equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures was $2.3 million and $2.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003, respectively, and is not expected to change significantly in future periods absent any additional investment in unconsolidated joint ventures or unexpected changes in the operations of the underlying properties.

Loss on extinguishment of debt increased by $1.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $2.1 million from $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. In May 2004, we repaid in full and terminated our $500 million credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. and charged $1.7 million in associated unamortized financing costs to earnings. In addition, $0.4 million of unamortized loan costs associated with the Nestle debt were charged to earnings as the debt was repaid in full. In April 2003, we terminated our $110 million credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. and charged $0.5 million in associated unamortized deferred financing costs to earnings. Loss on extinguishment of debt for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 is not expected to be indicative of amounts in future periods as such costs are generally dependent upon altering our financing structure and we have no plans for significantly changing our current financing structure.

Discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $12.3 million, consisting entirely of operations and the disposition of the Eisenhower Boulevard Building as discussed in Note 2 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Net operations for the period from January 1, 2004 through the date of sale, June 3, 2004, and the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively. The gain recognized on the sale of the property was $11.6 million. There were no dispositions for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $0.25 compared to $0.20 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This increase is primarily a result of the recognition of lease termination income related to the Metris lease termination, and the gain on sale of the Eisenhower Boulevard Building occurring in the second quarter 2004, which together generated approximately $0.04 net income per share. Earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2004 reflects the change in depreciable lives of real estate assets from 25 years to 40 years which resulted in an increase in earnings of approximately $0.06 per share, that was essentially offset by the impact of the increased amortization of $0.07 per share during the six months ended June 30, 2004 as a result of the adoption of FAS 141. Other than these items, operations remained relatively consistent on a per share basis and would not be expected to change significantly from earnings of $0.20 per share per quarter.

Funds From Operations

Funds From Operations (“FFO”), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), generally means net income, computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) excluding extraordinary items (as defined by GAAP) and gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and subsidiaries. We believe that FFO may be helpful to investors as a measure of the performance of an equity REIT. However, our calculation of FFO, while consistent with NAREIT’s definition, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions.

The following table reflects, in thousands, the calculation of FFO for the periods indicated:


	For the three months ended June 30,				For the six months ended June 30,
	2004		2003		2004		2003
Net income	$	65,045	$	27,985	$	117,669	$	52,349
Add:
Depreciation of real assets		24,316		25,060		48,442		44,278
Amortization of lease related costs		16,357		271		31,915		349
Depreciation and amortization – unconsolidated partnerships		1,173		779		2,423		1,565
Subtract:
Gain on sale of properties		11,629		—		11,629		—

FFO	$	95,262	$	54,095	$	188,820	$	98,541

Weighted average shares outstanding		464,441		283,903		463,917		258,575

Through the first quarter 2004, we (and our unconsolidated joint ventures) have reported the amortization of the fair values of in-place leases, including opportunity costs associated with lost rentals that are avoided by acquiring in-place leases and tenant relationships, as an adjustment to rental income in our consolidated statements of income. Beginning with the second quarter 2004, we (and our unconsolidated joint ventures) present this amortization as amortization expense in our consolidated statements of income, and have reclassified such amortization from rental income to amortization expense for all periods previously presented. The period of amortization continues to be the term of the respective lease and results in no change in previously reported net income, but does result in an increase in Funds From Operations of approximately $10.3 million and $20.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. The primary purpose of this change is to more closely align our presentation of such costs with similar costs as classified by other companies in the real estate industry.

Set forth below is additional information (often considered in conjunction with FFO) that may be helpful in assessing our operating results:

•

In accordance with GAAP, we recognized straight-line rental revenue of $7.7 million and $4.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $12.9 million and $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003, respectively.

•

The amortization of deferred financing costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of income totaled approximately $0.7 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $1.5 million and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003, respectively. Additionally, the loss on extinguishment of debt in the accompanying consolidated statements of income totaled approximately $1.7 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $2.1 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003, respectively.

•

The amount of deferred financing costs paid totaled approximately $9.3 million and $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $9.4 million and $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003, respectively.

•

The amortization of intangible lease assets and intangible lease liabilities in the accompanying consolidated statements of income totaled approximately $1.1 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $1.9 million and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003, respectively.

REIT Qualification

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and have operated as such beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 1998. As a REIT, we are generally not subject to federal income tax. If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we would become subject to federal income taxes on taxable income for four years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless the Internal Revenue Service were to grant us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, we believe that we are currently organized and currently operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT and intend to continue to operate in the foreseeable future in such a manner that will permit us to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the current tax year. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. We are subject to certain state and local taxes related to the operations of properties in certain locations, which have been provided for in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Inflation

The real estate market has not been affected significantly by inflation in the past three years due to the relatively low inflation rate. However, there are provisions in the majority of tenant leases, which would protect us from the impact of inflation. These provisions include reimbursement billings for operating expense pass-through charges, real estate tax and insurance reimbursements on a per-square-foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses above a certain per-square-foot allowance. However, due to the long-term nature of the leases, the leases may not re-set frequently enough to cover inflation.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

Our accounting policies have been established to conform to GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If management’s judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus, resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.

Investment in Real Estate Assets

We are required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of our depreciable assets. We consider the period of future benefit of the asset to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments have a direct impact on net income. The estimated useful lives of our assets by class are as follows:


Buildings		40 years
Building improvements		10-25 years
Land improvements		20-25 years
Tenant improvements		Lease term
Intangible lease assets		Lease term

During the first quarter of 2004, we completed a review of our real estate related depreciation by performing an analysis of the components of each property type in an effort to determine weighted average composite useful lives of our real estate assets. As a result of this review, we changed our estimate of the weighted average composite useful lives for building assets. Effective January 1, 2004, for all building assets, we extended the weighted average composite useful life to 40 years from 25 years. This change resulted in an increase to net income of approximately $13.7 million or $0.03 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2004, and $27.7 million or $0.06 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2004. We believe the change reflects the estimated useful lives of the assets and is consistent with prevailing industry practice. In the event that inappropriate useful lives or methods are used for depreciation, our net income would be misstated.

Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Assets

Upon the acquisition of real properties, it is our policy to allocate the purchase price of properties to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land and building, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, and the value of in-place leases, based in each case on their estimated fair values.

The fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and building) are determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building based on our determination of the relative fair value of these assets. We determine the as-if-vacant fair value of a property using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by us in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, we include real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. We estimate costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions and other related costs.

The fair values of above-market and below-market in-place leases are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) our estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining terms of the leases. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values are recorded as intangible lease assets or liabilities and amortized as an adjustment to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases.

The fair values of in-place leases include direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, opportunity costs associated with lost rentals that are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease, and tenant relationships. Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant include commissions, tenant improvements and other direct costs and are estimated based on management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct costs are included in deferred lease costs in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs is calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. Customer relationships are valued based on expected renewal of a lease or the likelihood of obtaining a particular tenant for other locations. These lease intangibles are

included in intangible lease assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Prior to the three months ended June 30, 2004, these lease intangibles were amortized as an adjustment to rental income rather than to expense. As such, the related amortization has been reclassified from an adjustment to rental income to expense in the consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004.

Estimates of the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets require us to estimate market lease rates, property operating expenses, carrying costs during lease-up periods, discount rates, market absorption periods and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of inappropriate estimates would result in an incorrect assessment of our purchase price allocations, which could impact the amount of our reported net income.

Impairment of Real Estate Assets

We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate and related intangible assets, both operating properties and properties under construction, in which we have an ownership interest, either directly or through investments in joint ventures, may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present which indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate and related intangible assets may not be recoverable, we assess the recoverability of these assets by determining whether the carrying value will be recovered through the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, we adjust the real estate and related intangible assets to the fair value and recognize an impairment loss.

Projections of expected cash flows require that we estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, discount rates, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property and the number of years the property is held for investment, among other factors. The use of cash flows and fair value could result in the misstatement of the carrying value of our real estate and related intangible assets and our net income. We have determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of real estate assets held by us or any unconsolidated joint ventures at June 30, 2004.

Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to certain contingent liabilities and commitments with regard to certain transactions. Refer to Note 5 of our consolidated financial statements for further explanation. Examples of such commitments and contingencies include:

•

Properties Under Construction

•

Properties Under Contract

•

Commitments Under Existing Lease Agreements

•

Earn-out Agreements

•

Leasehold Property Obligation

•

Take-out Purchase and Escrow Agreement

•

Litigation

Related-Party Transactions and Agreements

We have entered into agreements with our Advisor and its affiliates, whereby we pay certain fees or reimbursements to our Advisor or its affiliates for acquisition and advisory fees and expenses, organization and offering costs, sales commissions, dealer manager fees, asset and property management fees and reimbursement of operating costs. See Note 6 of our consolidated financial statements included in this report for a discussion of the various related-party transactions, agreements and fees.

Conflicts of Interest

Our Advisor is also a general partner of or advisor to various entities including another REIT and several syndicated real estate limited partnerships. As such, there are instances where our Advisor, while serving in the capacity as general partner or advisor for these entities, may be in competition with us in connection with property acquisitions or for tenants in similar geographic markets. The compensation arrangements with our Advisor and its affiliates could influence our Advisor’s and its affiliates’ advice to us.

Additionally, certain members of our board of directors also serve on the board of directors of another REIT sponsored by our Advisor. These directors may face situations where decisions that benefit one entity may be detrimental to the other entity.

Subsequent Events

Certain significant events occurred from July 1, 2004 through the date of this report. Refer to Note 8 of our consolidated financial statements for further explanation.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates on our indebtedness, which could impact our financial condition and results of operations. We manage our exposure to these market risks through our regular operating and financing activities. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flow, primarily through a low to moderate level of overall borrowings. Additionally, we manage our ratio of fixed to floating rate debt with the objective of achieving a mix that we believe is appropriate. We have and may from time to time enter into interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements to hedge our exposure to fluctuating interest rates. We do not anticipate any material changes in our exposure to interest rate fluctuations or in our management thereof. We intend to use derivative financial instruments as risk management tools and not for speculative or trading purposes.

All of our debt was entered into for other than trading purposes, and the fair value of our debt approximates its carrying amount.

Approximately $816.0 million of our total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2004 is subject to fixed rates, with an average interest rate of approximately 4.9% with expirations ranging from 2007 to 2028. A change in the market interest rate impacts the net financial instrument position of our fixed rate debt portfolio but has no impact on interest incurred or cash flows. Such agreements may result in higher fixed interest rates in certain periods of lower variable interest rates, but are intended to decrease our exposure to potential increases in interest rates.

None of our debt outstanding as of June 30, 2004 is based on variable interest rates except for $6.8 million outstanding under the $21.1 million term loan payable, with respect to which we have entered into an interest rate swap that results in a fixed rate of 2.75% for this debt. To the extent that we borrow funds in the future under our variable rate lines of credit, we would have exposure to increases in interest rates, which would increase our cost of debt.

We do not believe that there is any exposure to increases in interest rate risk related to the obligations under capital leases of $64.5 million at June 30, 2004, as the obligations are at fixed interest rates and we own the related bonds.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In the ordinary course of business, we or our subsidiaries may become subject to litigation or claims. Except as disclosed below, there are no other material pending legal proceedings or proceedings known to be contemplated by governmental authorities involving us or our subsidiaries during the year ended December 31, 2003, requiring disclosure under Item 103 of Regulation S-K.

On October 9, 2003, Stephen L. Flood, the Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, Controller, and the Luzerne County Retirement Board (“Luzerne Board”) on behalf of the Luzerne County Employee Retirement System (“Plan”) filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court, Middle District of Pennsylvania against 26 separate defendants WIS, our dealer manager, Wells Real Estate Funds, Inc., the parent company of both the Advisor and WIS and us (“Wells Defendants”). The complaint alleges, among other things, (1) that certain former members of the Luzerne Board named as defendants invested $10 million in our common stock on behalf of the Plan, (2) that certain former board members defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the Plan by, among other things, permitting the investment of the Plan’s funds in investments not suitable for the Plan because they were long-term illiquid investments, permitting the Plan to pay excessive fees and commissions to co-defendants, and accepting political contributions in exchange for awarding advisory and management agreements, (3) that the Wells Defendants and others knew or should have known that the investment, and the fees and commissions associated with the investment, was not a proper investment for the Plan because it was a long-term illiquid investment, (4) that the Wells Defendants and others knew or should have known that certain Luzerne Board members and certain investment advisors and managers were breaching their fiduciary duties to the Plan, (5) that the defendants engaged in and conspired to engage in an improver scheme to intentionally defraud the Plan and (6) that the investment was not approved by a majority of the Luzerne Board at a public meeting and, consequently, the investment was an inappropriate and void action. The Plan is seeking damages of not less than $25 million, treble damages and punitive damages from all defendants on a joint and several liability basis. We believe that this lawsuit is without merit with respect to the Wells Defendants. While it is premature to determine the likely outcome of this lawsuit, we do not believe that a reserve for a loss contingency is necessary.

ITEM 2. CHANGE IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

No equity securities that are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 have been sold by us.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

There have been no defaults with respect to any of our indebtedness.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matters were submitted to a vote of our stockholders during the second quarter of 2004.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

As our stock is currently not listed on a national exchange, there is no significant public trading market for our stock. Consequently, there is the risk that a stockholder may not be able to sell our stock at a time or price acceptable to the stockholder. Our board of directors has authorized a share redemption program for investors who have held their shares for more than one year, subject to the limitation that (i) during any calendar year, we will not redeem in excess of 3% of the weighted average common shares outstanding during the prior calendar year, and (ii) funding for the redemption of shares will come exclusively from the sale of shares pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan such that in no event shall the aggregate amount of redemptions under our share redemption program exceed aggregate proceeds received from the sale of shares pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan. Our board of directors may modify or terminate our share redemption program at any time in its discretion upon 30 days’ notice.

In order for NASD members and their associated persons to have participated in the offering and sale of shares of common stock pursuant to the fourth offering or to participate in any future offering of our shares, we are required pursuant to NASD Rule 2710(c)(6) to disclose in each annual report distributed to stockholders a per share estimated

value of the shares, the method by which it was developed and the date of the data used to develop the estimated value. In addition, our Advisor must prepare annual statements of estimated share values to assist fiduciaries of retirement plans subject to the annual reporting requirements of ERISA in the preparation of their reports relating to an investment in our shares. For these purposes, the estimated value of the shares was deemed to be $10 per share as of December 31, 2003. The basis for this valuation is the fact that we had recently completed a public offering of our shares at the price of $10 per share. However, as set forth below, there is no significant public trading market for the shares at this time, and there can be no assurance that stockholders could receive $10 per share if such a market did exist and they sold their shares or that they will be able to receive such amount for their shares in the future. Moreover, we have not performed an evaluation of our properties; as such, this valuation is not based upon the value of the properties, nor does it represent the amount stockholders would receive if our properties were sold and the proceeds distributed to our stockholders in a liquidation, which amount would most likely be less than $10 per share, because at the time we were purchasing our properties, the amount of funds available for investment in properties was reduced by approximately 14% of offering proceeds raised, which were used to pay selling commissions and dealer manager fees, organization and offering costs and acquisition and advisory fees and expenses, as described in more detail in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this report. As a result, it would be expected that, in the absence of other factors affecting property values, our aggregate net asset value would be less than the proceeds of our offerings and may not be the best indicator of the value of shares purchased as a long-term income-producing investment. Instead, we believe that, for a certain period after significant amounts of shares are sold to investors, the price paid by such investors may better reflect the estimated value of the shares. Accordingly, for a period of three full fiscal years after we have ceased to sell significant amounts of shares, we expect to continue to use the latest offering price of our shares ($10 per common share) as the estimated per share value reported in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K. Because of this, we expect that the first estimated per share value will not be provided until after December 31, 2006.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Borrower promises to pay to the order of Holder, at Holder’s Address or such other place as Holder may from time to time designate in writing, the Loan Amount with interest payable in the manner described below, in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment shall be legal tender for payment of all obligations.

Capitalized terms which are not defined in this Note shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest. Principal and interest under this Note shall be payable as follows:

(a) Interest on the funded portion of the Loan Amount shall accrue from the Advance Date at the Interest Rate and shall be paid on the first day of the first calendar month following the Advance Date;

(b) Commencing on the first day of the second calendar month following the Advance Date and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter, to and including the first day of the calendar month immediately preceding the Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay the Monthly Installment; and

(c) On the Maturity Date, a final payment in the aggregate amount of the unpaid principal sum evidenced by this Note, all accrued and unpaid interest, and all other sums evidenced by this Note or secured by the Mortgage and/or any other Loan Documents as well as any future advances under the Mortgage that may be made to or on behalf of Borrower by Holder following the Advance Date (collectively, the “Aggregate Indebtedness”), shall become immediately payable in full.

Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the original Loan Amount shall be outstanding and due on the Maturity Date.

Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month and a three hundred sixty (360) day year, except that (i) if the Advance Date occurs on a date other than the first day of a calendar month, interest payable for the period commencing on the Advance Date and ending on the last day of the month in which the Advance Date occurs shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a 365 day or 366 day year, as applicable, and (ii) if the Maturity Date occurs on a date other than the last day of the month, interest payable for the period commencing on the first day of the month in which the Maturity Date occurs and ending on the Maturity Date shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a 365 day or 366 day year, as applicable.

2. Application of Payments. At the election of Holder, and to the extent permitted by law, all payments shall be applied in the order selected by Holder to any expenses, prepayment fees, late charges, escrow deposits and other sums due and payable under the Loan Documents, and to unpaid interest at the Interest Rate or at the Default Rate, as applicable. The balance of any payments shall be applied to reduce the then unpaid Loan Amount.

3. Security. The covenants of the Mortgage are incorporated by reference into this Note. This Note shall evidence, and the Mortgage and other Loan Documents shall secure the Aggregate Indebtedness.

4. Late Charge. If any payment of interest, any payment of a Monthly Installment or any payment of a required escrow deposit is not paid within 7 days of the due date, Holder shall have the option to charge Borrower the Late Charge. The Late Charge is for the purpose of defraying the expenses incurred in connection with handling and processing delinquent payments and is payable in addition to any other remedy Holder may have. Unpaid Late Charges shall become part of the Aggregate Indebtedness and shall be added to any subsequent payments due under the Loan Documents.

- 2 -

5. Acceleration Upon Default. At the option of Holder, if Borrower fails to pay any sum specified in this Note when due after giving effect to any grace periods, or if an Event of Default occurs, the Aggregate Indebtedness, and all other sums evidenced and/or secured by the Loan Documents, including without limitation any applicable prepayment fees (collectively, the “Accelerated Loan Amount”) shall become immediately due and payable.

6. Interest Upon Default. The Accelerated Loan Amount shall bear interest at the Default Rate which shall never exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be contracted for under the laws of the State. The Default Rate shall commence upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and shall continue until all defaults are cured.

7. Limitation on Interest. The agreements made by Borrower with respect to this Note and the other Loan Documents are expressly limited so that in no event shall the amount of interest received, charged or contracted for by Holder exceed the highest lawful amount of interest permissible under the laws applicable to the Loan. If at any time performance of any provision of this Note or the other Loan Documents results in the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under applicable laws being exceeded, then the amount of interest received, charged or contracted for by Holder shall automatically and without further action by any party be deemed to have been reduced to the highest lawful amount of interest then permissible under applicable laws. If Holder shall ever receive, charge or contract for, as interest, an amount which is unlawful, at Holder’s election, the amount of unlawful interest shall be refunded to Borrower (if actually paid) or applied to reduce the then unpaid Loan Amount. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, any amounts contracted for, charged or received under the Loan Documents included for the purpose of determining whether the Interest Rate would exceed the highest lawful rate shall be calculated by allocating and spreading such interest to and over the full stated term of this Note.

8. Prepayment. Borrower shall not have the right to prepay all or any portion of the Loan Amount at any time during the term of this Note except as expressly set forth in the Defined Terms hereof. If Borrower provides notice of its intention to prepay, the Accelerated Loan Amount shall become due and payable on the date specified in the prepayment notice.

(a) Prepayment Fee. Any tender of payment by Borrower or any other person or entity of the Aggregate Indebtedness, other than as expressly provided in the Loan Documents, shall constitute a prohibited prepayment. If a prepayment of all or any part of the Aggregate Indebtedness is made following (i) an Event of Default and an acceleration of the Maturity Date, or (ii) in connection with a purchase of the Property or a repayment of the Aggregate Indebtedness at any time before, during or after, a judicial or non-judicial foreclosure or sale of the Property, then to compensate Holder for the loss of the investment, Borrower shall pay an amount equal to the Prepayment Fee (as hereinafter defined).

(b) The “Prepayment Fee” shall be the greater of (A) the Prepayment Ratio (as hereinafter defined) multiplied by the difference between (x) and (y), where (x) is the present value of all remaining payments of principal and interest including the outstanding principal due on the Maturity Date, discounted at the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus one half of one percent (.5%), compounded semi-annually, and (y) is the entire amount of the then outstanding principal balance, or (B) one percent (1%) of the amount of the principal being prepaid.

(c) The “Treasury Rate” shall be the annualized yield on securities issued by the United States Treasury having a maturity equal to the remaining stated term of the Note, as quoted in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release [H. 15 (519)] under the heading “U.S. Government Securities - Treasury Constant Maturities” for the date on which prepayment is being made. If this rate is not available as of the date of prepayment, the Treasury Rate shall be determined by interpolating between the yield on securities of the next longer and next shorter maturity. If the Treasury Rate is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable rate. Holder will, upon request, provide an estimate of the amount of the Prepayment Fee two weeks before the date of the scheduled prepayment.

- 3 -

(d) The “Prepayment Ratio” shall be a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the amount of principal being prepaid, and the denominator of which shall be the principal then outstanding.

9. Waiver of Right to Prepay Note Without Prepayment Fee. Borrower acknowledges that Holder has relied upon the anticipated investment return under this Note in entering into transactions with, and in making commitments to, third parties and that the tender of any prohibited prepayment, shall, to the extent permitted by law, include the Prepayment Fee. Borrower agrees that the Prepayment Fee represents the reasonable estimate of Holder and Borrower of a fair average compensation for the loss that may be sustained by Holder as a result of a prohibited prepayment of the Note and it shall be paid without prejudice to the right of Holder to collect any other amounts provided to be paid under the Loan Documents.

10. Liability of Borrower. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, except as provided in this Section 11, Holder will look solely to the Property and the security under the Loan Documents for the repayment of the Loan and will not enforce a deficiency judgment against Borrower. However, nothing contained in this section shall limit the rights of Holder to proceed against Borrower and the general partners of Borrower and/or the Liable Parties, if any, (i) to enforce any leases entered into by Borrower or its affiliates as tenant, guarantees, or other agreements entered into by Borrower in a capacity other than as borrower or under any policies of insurance; (ii) to recover damages for fraud, material misrepresentation, material breach of warranty or waste; (iii) to recover any condemnation proceeds or insurance proceeds or other similar funds which have been misapplied by Borrower or which, under the terms of the Loan Documents, should have been paid to Holder; (iv) to recover any tenant security deposits, tenant letters of credit or other deposits or fees paid to Borrower that are part of the collateral for the Loan or prepaid rents for a period of more than 30 days which have not been delivered to Holder; (v) to recover Rents and Profits received by Borrower after the first day of the month in which an Event of Default occurs and prior to the date Holder acquires title to the Property which have not been applied to the Loan or in accordance with the Loan Documents to operating and maintenance expenses of the Property; (vi) to recover damages, costs and expenses arising from, or in connection with the provisions of the Mortgage pertaining to hazardous materials or the Indemnity Agreement; (vii) to recover all amounts due and payable pursuant to Sections 11.06 and 11.07 of the Mortgage and any amount expended by Holder in connection with the foreclosure of the Mortgage; (viii) to recover damages arising from Borrower’s failure to comply with the provisions of the Mortgage pertaining to ERISA; and/or (ix) to recover damages, costs and expenses arising from, or in connection with Borrower’s failure to pay any Impositions or Premiums.

The limitation of liability set forth in this Section 11 shall not apply and the Loan shall be fully recourse in the event that (a) there is a violation of Section 10.01 of the Mortgage or Section 10.02 of the Mortgage or (b) prior to the repayment of the Aggregate Indebtedness, Borrower commences a voluntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding is commenced against Borrower and is not dismissed within 90 days of filing. In addition, this agreement shall not waive any rights which Holder would have under any provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the Aggregate Indebtedness or to require that the Property shall continue to secure all of the Aggregate Indebtedness.

11. Waiver by Borrower. Borrower and others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Note, and each of them, waive diligence, demand, presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of dishonor and notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate and notice of acceleration and specifically consent to and waive notice of any amendments, modifications, renewals or extensions of this Note, including the granting of extension of time for payment, whether made to or in favor of Borrower or any other person or persons.

12. Exercise of Rights. No single or partial exercise by Holder, or delay or omission in the exercise by Holder, of any right or remedy under the Loan Documents shall waive or limit the exercise of any such right or remedy. Holder shall at all times have the right to proceed against any portion of or interest in the Property in the manner that Holder may deem appropriate, without waiving any other rights or remedies. The release of any party under this Note shall not operate to release any other party which is liable under this Note and/or under the other Loan Documents or under the Indemnity Agreement.

- 4 -

13. Fees and Expenses. If Borrower defaults under this Note, Borrower shall be personally liable for and shall pay to Holder, in addition to the sums stated above, the costs and expenses of enforcement and collection, including a reasonable sum as an attorney’s fee. This obligation is not limited by Section 11.

14. No Amendments. This Note may not be modified or amended except in a writing executed by Borrower and Holder. No waivers shall be effective unless they are set forth in a writing signed by the party which is waiving a right. This Note and the other Loan Documents are the final expression of the lending relationship between Borrower.

15. Governing Law. This Note is to be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State.

16. Construction. The words “Borrower” and “Holder” shall be deemed to include their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, and shall denote the singular and/or plural, and the masculine and/or feminine, and natural and/or artificial persons, as appropriate. The provisions of this Note shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any changes in the shareholders, partners or members of Borrower. If more than one party is Borrower, the obligations of each party shall be joint and several. The captions in this Note are inserted only for convenience of reference and do not expand, limit or define the scope or intent of any section of this Note.

17. Notices. All notices, demands, requests and consents permitted or required under this Note shall be given in the manner prescribed in the Mortgage.

18. Time of the Essence. Time shall be of the essence with respect to all of Borrower’s obligations under this Note.

19. Severability. If any provision of this Note should be held unenforceable or void, then that provision shall be deemed separable from the remaining provisions and shall not affect the validity of this Note, except that if that provision relates to the payment of any monetary sum, then Holder may, at its option, declare the Aggregate Indebtedness (together with the Prepayment Fee) immediately due and payable.

BORROWER COVENANTS

Section 2.01 DUE AUTHORIZATION, EXECUTION, AND DELIVERY.

(a) Borrower represents and warrants that the execution of the Loan Documents and the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement have been duly authorized and there is no provision in the organizational documents of Borrower requiring further consent for such action by any other entity or person.

(b) Borrower represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing and is in good standing under the laws of the state of its formation and in the State, that it has all necessary licenses, authorizations, registrations, permits and/or approvals to own its properties and to carry on its business as presently conducted.

(c) Borrower represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents will not result in Borrower’s being in default under any provision of its organizational documents or of any mortgage, lease, credit or other agreement to which it is a party or which affects it or the Property.

(d) Borrower represents and warrants that the Loan Documents and the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Borrower and constitute valid and binding obligations of Borrower which are enforceable in accordance with their terms.

Section 2.02 PERFORMANCE BY BORROWER. Borrower shall pay the Secured Indebtedness to Lender and shall keep and perform each and every other obligation, covenant and agreement of the Loan Documents.

Section 2.03 WARRANTY OF TITLE.

(a) Borrower warrants that it holds marketable and indefeasible fee simple absolute title to the Real Property, and that it has the right and is lawfully authorized to sell, convey or encumber the Property subject only to those property specific exceptions to title recorded in the real estate records of the County and contained in Schedule B of the title insurance policy or policies which have been approved by Lender (the “Permitted Exceptions”). The Property is free from all due and unpaid taxes, assessments and mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens.

(b) Borrower further covenants to warrant and forever defend Lender from and against all persons claiming any interest in the Property other than the Permitted Exceptions.

-3-

Section 2.04 TAXES, LIENS AND OTHER CHARGES.

(a) Unless otherwise paid to Lender as provided in Section 2.05, Borrower shall pay all real estate and other taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges, vault and other license or permit fees, liens, fines, penalties, interest, and other similar public and private claims which may be payable, assessed, levied, imposed upon or become a lien on or against any portion of the Property (all of the foregoing items are collectively referred to as the “Imposition(s)”). The Impositions shall be paid not later than thirty (30) days prior to the dates on which the particular Imposition would become delinquent, unless Borrower has paid deposits for such amounts to Lender, and Borrower shall produce to Lender receipts of the imposing authority, or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender, evidencing the payment of the Imposition in full. If Borrower elects by appropriate legal action to contest any Imposition, Borrower shall first deposit cash or a letter of credit in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender with Lender as a reserve in an amount which Lender determines is sufficient to pay the Imposition plus all fines, interest, penalties and costs which may become due pending the determination of the contest. If Borrower deposits this sum with Lender, Borrower shall not be required to pay the Imposition provided that the contest operates to prevent enforcement or collection of the Imposition, or the sale or forfeiture of, the Property, and is prosecuted with due diligence and continuity. Upon termination of any proceeding or contest, Borrower shall pay the amount of the Imposition as finally determined in the proceeding or contest. Provided that there is not then an Event of Default (as defined in Section 11.01), any monies which have been deposited with Lender pursuant to this Section shall be applied toward such payment and the excess, if any, and any letter of credit shall be returned to Borrower.

(b) In the event of the passage, after the Execution Date, of any law which deducts from the value of the Property, for the purposes of taxation, any lien or security interest encumbering the Property, or changing in any way the existing laws regarding the taxation of mortgages, deeds of trust and/or security agreements or debts secured by these instruments, or changing the manner for the collection of any such taxes, and the law has the effect of imposing payment of any Impositions upon Lender, at Lender’s option, the Secured Indebtedness shall upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to Borrower become due and payable. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Lender’s election to accelerate the Loan shall not be effective if (1) Borrower is permitted by law (including, without limitation, applicable interest rate laws) to, and actually does, pay the Imposition or the increased portion of the Imposition and (2) Borrower agrees in writing to pay or reimburse Lender in accordance with Section 11.06 for the payment of any such Imposition which becomes payable at any time when the Loan is outstanding.

Section 2.05 ESCROW DEPOSITS.

(a) Without limiting the effect of Section 2.04 and Section 3.01 and subject to Sections 2.05(b) and 2.05(c) below, Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly, on the same date the monthly installment is payable under the Note, an amount equal to 1/12th of the amounts Lender reasonably estimates are necessary to pay, on an annualized basis, (1) all Impositions and (2) the premiums for the insurance policies required under this Mortgage (collectively, the “Premiums”) until such time as Borrower has deposited an amount equal to the annual charges for these items, and on demand, from time to time, shall pay to Lender any additional amounts necessary to pay the Premiums and Impositions. Borrower will furnish to Lender bills for Impositions and Premiums thirty (30) days before Impositions become delinquent and such Premiums become due for payment. No amounts paid as Impositions or Premiums shall be deemed to be trust funds and these funds may be commingled with the general funds of Lender without any requirement to pay interest to Borrower on account of these funds. If an Event of Default occurs, Lender shall have the right, at its election, to apply any amounts held under this Section 2.05 in reduction of the Secured Indebtedness, or in payment of the Premiums or Impositions for which the amounts were deposited.

-4-

(b) Lender agrees not to require deposits for Premiums, unless and until (i) there is an Event of Default under the Loan Documents or the Indemnity Agreement; (ii) Borrower no longer owns the Property; (iii) there has been a change in the Borrower or in the general partners, stockholders or members of Borrower or in the constituent general partners or controlling shareholders or controlling members of any of the entities comprising Borrower not otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents; or (iv) at any time Borrower fails to furnish Lender, not later than thirty (30) days before the dates on which any Premiums would become delinquent, receipts for the payment of such insurance premiums or appropriate proof of issuance of a new policy which continues in force the insurance coverage of the expiring policy. In the event any of these events occur, Lender reserves the right to require Premiums deposits at any time in its absolute discretion notwithstanding the fact that the default may be cured, or that the transfer or change must be approved by Lender.

(c) Lender agrees not to require deposits for Impositions, unless and until (i) there is an Event of Default under the Loan Documents or the Indemnity Agreement; (ii) Borrower no longer owns the Property; or (iii) there has been a change in the Borrower or in the general partners, stockholders or members of Borrower or in the constituent general partners or controlling shareholders or controlling members of any of the entities comprising Borrower not otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents. In the event any of these events occur, Lender reserves the right to require such Impositions deposits at any time in its absolute discretion notwithstanding the fact that the default may be cured, or that the transfer or change be approved by Lender.

Borrower shall cooperate with Lender performing these inspections. A representative of Borrower may accompany Lender’s representative on all such inspections. So long as no Event of Default occurs, Lender shall be limited to two (2) inspections per year under this Section 2.06(b); provided, however, to the extent Lender, in its reasonable discretion, has reason to believe that Borrower is not in compliance with this Section 2.06, such limitation shall not apply.

(c) Borrower shall use, or cause to be used, the Property continuously for the Use. Borrower shall not use, or permit the use of, the Property for any other use without the prior written consent of Lender. Borrower shall not file or record a declaration of condominium, master mortgage or mortgage or any other similar document evidencing the imposition of a so-called “condominium regime” whether superior or subordinate to this mortgage and Borrower shall not permit any part of the Property to be converted to, or operated as, a “cooperative apartment house” (or “cooperative” form of ownership) whereby the tenants or occupants participate in the ownership, management or control of any part of the Property.

(d) Without the prior written consent of Lender, Borrower shall not (i) initiate or acquiesce in a change in the zoning classification of and/or restrictive covenants affecting the Property or seek any variance under existing zoning ordinances, (ii) use or permit the use of the Property in a manner which may result in the Use becoming a non-conforming use under applicable zoning ordinances, (iii) subject the Property to restrictive covenants.

Section 2.07 COLLATERAL SECURITY INSTRUMENTS. Borrower covenants and agrees that if Lender at any time holds additional security for any obligations secured by this Mortgage, it may enforce its rights and remedies with respect to the security, at its option, either before, concurrently or after a sale of the Property is made pursuant to the terms of this Mortgage. Lender may apply the proceeds of the additional security to the Secured Indebtedness without affecting or waiving any right to any other security, including the security under this Mortgage, and without waiving any breach or default of Borrower under this Mortgage or any other Loan Document.

Section 2.08 SUITS AND OTHER ACTS TO PROTECT THE PROPERTY.

(a) Borrower shall promptly upon receipt notify Lender of the commencement, or receipt of notice, of any and all actions or proceedings or other material matter or claim affecting the Property and/or the interest of Lender under the Loan Documents (collectively, “Actions”).

(b) Lender shall have the right, at the cost and expense of Borrower, to institute, maintain and participate in Actions and take such other action, as it may deem appropriate in the good faith exercise of

-6-

ARTICLE III

INSURANCE

Section 3.01 REQUIRED INSURANCE AND TERMS OF INSURANCE POLICIES.

(a) During the term of this Mortgage, Borrower at its sole cost and expense must provide insurance policies and certificates of insurance satisfactory to Lender as to amounts, types of coverage and the companies underwriting these coverages. In no event will such policies be terminated, unless simultaneously replaced with other acceptable insurance, or otherwise allowed to lapse. Borrower shall be responsible for its own deductibles. Borrower shall also pay for any insurance, or any increase of policy limits, not described in the Mortgage which Borrower requires for its own protection or for compliance with government statutes. Borrower’s insurance shall be primary and without contribution from any insurance procured by Lender.

Policies of insurance shall be delivered to Lender in accordance with the following requirements: All Risk Property insurance on the Improvements and the Personal Property, including contingent liability from Operation of Building Laws, Demolition Costs and Increased Cost of Construction endorsements, in each case (i) in an amount equal to 100% of the “Full Replacement Cost” of the Improvements and Personal Property, which for purposes of this Article III shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) with a waiver of depreciation and with a Replacement Cost Endorsement; (ii) containing an agreed amount endorsement with respect to the

-7-

Improvements and Personal Property waiving all co-insurance provisions; (iii) providing for no deductible in excess of $250,000; and (iv) containing an “Ordinance or Law Coverage” or “Enforcement” endorsement if any of the Improvements or the use of the Property shall constitute non-conforming structures or uses.

(1) Commercial General Liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about the Property, such insurance (i) to be on the so-called “occurrence” form with a combined single limit of not less than the amount set forth in the Defined Terms; (ii) to continue at not less than this limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate; and (iii) to cover at least the following hazards: (a) premises and operations; (b) products and completed operations on an “if any” basis; (c) independent contractors; (d) blanket contractual liability for all written and oral contracts; and (e) contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in this Mortgage to the extent available.

(2) Business Income insurance in an amount sufficient to prevent Borrower from becoming a co-insurer within the terms of the applicable policies, and sufficient to recover one (1) year’s “Business Income” (as hereinafter defined). The amount shown in the Defined Terms is the current estimate of one year’s “Business Income”. “Business Income” shall mean the sum of (i) the total anticipated gross income from occupancy of the Property, (ii) the amount of all charges (such as, but not limited to, operating expenses, insurance premiums and taxes) which are the obligation of tenants or occupants to Borrower, (iii) the fair market rental value of any portion of the Property which is occupied by Borrower, and (iv) any other amounts payable to Borrower or to any affiliate of Borrower, excluding any leasing commissions that may be payable to any affiliate of Borrower, pursuant to leases.

(3) If Lender determines at any time that any part of the Property is located in an area identified on a Flood Hazard Boundary Map or Flood Insurance Rate Map issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards and flood insurance has been made available, Borrower will maintain a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount not less than the lesser of (i) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan or (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as amended.

(4) During the period of any construction or renovation or alteration of the Improvements, a so-called “Builder’s All Risk” insurance policy in non-reporting form for any Improvements under construction, renovation or alteration including, without limitation, for demolition and increased cost of construction or renovation, in an amount approved by Lender including an Occupancy endorsement and Worker’s Compensation Insurance covering all persons engaged in the construction, renovation or alteration in an amount at least equal to the minimum required by statutory limits of the State.

(5) Workers’ Compensation insurance, subject to the statutory limits of the State, and employer’s liability insurance with a limit of at least $1,000,000 per accident and per disease per employee, and $1,000,000 for disease in the aggregate in respect of any work or operations on or about the Property, or in connection with the Property or its operations (if applicable).

-8-

(6) Boiler & Machinery insurance covering the major components of the central heating, air conditioning and ventilating systems, boilers, other pressure vessels, high pressure piping and machinery, elevators and escalators, if any, and other similar equipment installed in the Improvements, in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of all equipment installed in, on or at the Improvements. These policies shall insure against physical damage to and loss of occupancy and use of the Improvements arising out of an accident or breakdown.

(7) Insurance, on such forms of insurance policies as reasonably required by Lender, from and against all losses, damages, costs, expenses, claims and liabilities related to or arising from acts of terrorism, of such types, in such amounts, with such deductibles, and issued by such companies as may be required by Lender.

(8) Such other insurance as may from time to time be reasonably required by Lender against other insurable hazards, including, but not limited to, vandalism, sinkhole and mine subsidence.

(b) Lender’s interest must be clearly stated by endorsement in the insurance policies described in this Section 3.01 as follows:

(1) The policies of insurance referenced in Subsections (a)(1), (a)(3), (a)(4), (a)(5) and (a)(7) of this Section 3.01 shall identify Lender under the New York Standard Mortgagee Clause (non-contributory) endorsement or similar form of endorsement should said endorsement become unavailable.

(2) The insurance policy referenced in Section 3.01 (a)(2) shall name Lender as an additional insured.

Lender may accept Certificates of Insurance evidencing insurance policies referenced in Subsections (a)(2), (a)(4), and (a)(6) of this Section 3.01 instead of requiring the actual policies. Lender shall be provided with renewal Certificates of Insurance, or Binders, not less than fifteen (15) days prior to each expiration. The failure of Borrower to maintain the insurance required under this Article III shall not constitute a waiver of Borrower’s obligation to fulfill these requirements.

Section 3.02 ADJUSTMENT OF CLAIMS.

(b) The limitation of liability set forth in this Section 9.01 shall not apply and the Loan shall be fully recourse in the event that (a) there is a violation of Sections 10.01 or 10.02 of this Mortgage, or (b) prior to the repayment of the Aggregate Indebtedness, that Borrower commences a voluntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding is commenced against Borrower and is not dismissed within 90 days of filing.

2.1.1 Agreement to Lend and Borrow. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender shall make the Loan to Borrowers and Borrowers shall accept the Loan from Lender on the Closing Date.

2.1.2 Single Disbursement to Borrower. Borrowers shall receive only one borrowing hereunder in respect of the Loan and any amount borrowed and repaid hereunder in respect of the Loan may not be reborrowed.

2.1.3 The Note. The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note in the aggregate stated principal amount of One Hundred Seventy-Five Million Seven Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($175,700,000.00) and shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Note.

2.1.4 Use of Proceeds. Borrowers shall use proceeds of the Loan to (i) pay and discharge any existing loans relating to the Individual Properties, (ii) pay all past due Basic Carrying Costs, if any, in respect of the Individual Properties, (iii) deposit the Reserve Funds, (iv) pay costs and expenses incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan, as approved by Lender, (v) fund any working capital requirements of the Individual Properties, as approved by Lender and (vi) retain the balance, if any.

2.1.5 Modification of the Components. Lender shall have the right, at any time prior to a Securitization, to modify the Loan in order to create additional Components, reduce the number of Components, reallocate the principal balances of the Components or eliminate the Component structure of the Loan provided that (a) the total principal balance of the Loan as of the effective date of such modification equals the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to such modification, (b) the weighted average interest rate of all such Components on the date created shall equal the weighted average interest rate that was applicable to the Components immediately prior to the modification of such Components and (c) any voluntary or required prepayment of the Loan shall be applied, provided no Event of Default has

22-

occurred and is continuing, on a prorata basis as to all Components. Lender shall have the right to modify the Components in accordance with this Section 2.1.5 upon notice to Borrowers in which event such modification shall then be deemed effective. If requested by Lender, Borrowers shall promptly execute an amendment to this Agreement, the Note, the Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents to evidence such modification. Borrowers shall, at Lender’s expense, cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to establish the “component” notes and shall execute and deliver such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender and any Rating Agency in connection therewith.

Section 2.2 Interest Rate.

2.2.1 Interest Rate. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall accrue from the Closing Date up to but excluding the Maturity Date at the Interest Rate.

2.2.2 Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest in respect of the Loan shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein.

2.2.3 Interest Calculation. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of each Component of the Loan shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year (that is, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as then applicable, expressed as an annual rate divided by 360) by (c) the outstanding principal balance. The accrual period for calculating interest due on each Monthly Payment Date shall be the Interest Period immediately prior to such Monthly Payment Date.

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

2.3.1 Payment Before Maturity Date Borrowers shall make a payment to Lender of interest only on the Closing Date for the period from the Closing Date through June 6, 2004. On the Monthly Payment Date occurring in July 2004 and on each Monthly Payment Date thereafter to and including the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall make a payment to Lender of interest accruing hereunder during the entire Interest Period in which such Monthly Payment Date occurs, calculated in the manner set forth herein. Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred, each payment shall be applied (a) first to accrued and unpaid interest on all of the Components on a pari passu basis and (b) on the Maturity Date, to the principal balance of the Components in the following order of priority: pro rata and pari passu according to the principal amount of Note A1, Note A2, Note A3, Note A4, Note A5 and Note A6.

2.3.3 Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or any other sum due under the Loan Documents, other than the payment of principal due on the Maturity Date, is not paid by Borrowers on the date on which it is due, Borrowers shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment.

24-

Lender in its sole discretion), prepay the Debt in whole only on any date without payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium. Any prepayment received by Lender on a date other than a Monthly Payment Date shall include interest which would have accrued thereon to the next Monthly Payment Date and such amounts (i.e., principal and interest prepaid by Borrower) shall be held by Lender as collateral security for the Loan in an interest bearing account at an Eligible Institution, with interest accruing on such amounts to the benefit of Borrower; such amounts prepaid shall be applied to the Loan on the next Monthly Payment Date, with any interest on such funds paid to Borrower on such date provided no Event of Default then exists.

2.4.2 Mandatory Prepayments. On each date on which Lender actually receives a distribution of Net Proceeds, and if Lender does not make such Net Proceeds available to Borrower for Restoration of the related Individual Property, Borrower shall, at Lender’s option, prepay the outstanding principal balance of the Note in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Proceeds together with interest that would have accrued on such amounts through the next Monthly Payment Date. No Yield Maintenance Premium shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.4.2. Any prepayment received by Lender pursuant to this Section 2.4.2 on a date other than a Monthly Payment Date shall be held by Lender as collateral security for the Loan in an interest bearing account, with such interest accruing to the benefit of Borrower, and shall be applied by Lender on the next Monthly Payment Date. Any prepayment made under this Section 2.4.2(a) shall be applied to the Allocated Loan Amount with respect to such Individual Property which will be reduced in an amount equal to any such prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.4.2 and (b) shall be applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Components in the following order of priority: pro rata and pari passu according to the principal balance of Note A1, Note A2, Note A3, Note A4, Note A5 and Note A6.

2.4.3 Prepayments After Default. If after an Event of Default, payment of all or any part of the principal of the Loan is tendered by Borrowers, a purchaser at foreclosure or any other Person, such tender shall be deemed an attempt to circumvent the prohibition against prepayment set forth in Section 2.4.1 and Borrowers, such purchaser at foreclosure or other Person shall pay the Yield Maintenance Premium, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts payable under the Loan Documents. Any amounts received by Lender while any Event of Default exists may be applied by Lender toward the payment of interest and/or principal of any of the Components and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper.

(g) In the event of foreclosure of any Mortgage with respect to any Individual Property or other transfer of title to any Individual Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of the related Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning such Individual Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

(h) Borrower shall not be required to maintain insurance with respect to the Individual Property located in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey under this Section 5.1.1 to the extent that it would be duplicative of the insurance required to be maintained (and in fact maintained) by Citicorp pursuant to the Citicorp Lease. However, in the event Citicorp does not maintain insurance satisfying the requirements as set forth in the Citicorp Lease or does not maintain any of the insurance required under this Section 5.1.1, Borrower shall promptly obtain the Policies required hereunder and deliver such Policies to Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

5.1.2 Insurance Company. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the state in which the subject Individual Property is located and having a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by S&P and Fitch and an insurance financial strength rating of “Aa2” by Moody’s (provided, however, that for so long as Citicorp is the Tenant at the Individual Property located in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey pursuant to the Citicorp Lease, the Policies may be issued by insurance companies as permitted in the Citicorp Lease). If a Securitization occurs, (i) the foregoing required insurance company rating by a Rating Agency not rating any Securities shall be disregarded and (ii) if the insurance company complies with the aforesaid S&P required rating (and S&P is rating the Securities) and the other Rating Agencies rating the Securities do not rate the insurance company, such insurance company shall be deemed acceptable with respect to such Rating Agency not rating such insurance company. If a Securitization occurs and S&P is not a Rating Agency, each of the insurance companies shall have a claims paying ability rating of at least A-

67-

by Fitch and an insurance financial strength rating of A3 by Moody’s and at least sixty-seven percent (67%) of the coverage shall be provided by insurance companies having claims paying ability ratings of AA by Fitch and an insurance financial strength rating of Aa2 by Moody’s; provided, however, if Fitch or Moody’s shall not provide a rating for an insurance company, then an A.M. Best rating of A(X) shall be substituted for each of the foregoing rating requirements of Fitch or Moody’s, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers shall be permitted to maintain the Policies with insurance companies which do not meet the foregoing requirements (an “Otherwise Rated Insurer”), provided Borrowers obtain a “cut-through” endorsement (that is, an endorsement which permits recovery against the provider of such endorsement) with respect to any Otherwise Rated Insurer from an insurance company which meets the claims paying ability ratings required above. Moreover, if Borrowers desire to maintain insurance required hereunder from an insurance company which does not meet the claims paying ability ratings set forth herein but the parent of such insurance company, which owns at least fifty-one percent (51%) of such insurance company, maintains such ratings, Borrowers may use such insurance companies if approved by the Rating Agencies (such approval may be conditioned on items required by the Rating Agencies including a requirement that the parent guarantee the obligations of such insurance company).

Section 5.2 Casualty and Condemnation.

5.2.1 Casualty. If any Individual Property shall sustain a Casualty, the Borrower that owns such Individual Property shall give prompt notice of such Casualty to Lender and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the repair and restoration of such Individual Property as nearly as possible to the condition such Individual Property was in immediately prior to such Casualty (a “Restoration”) and otherwise in accordance with Section 5.3, it being understood, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to restore such Individual Property to the precise condition of such Individual Property prior to such Casualty provided such Individual Property is restored, to the extent practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty. The affected Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by the applicable Borrower. In the event of a Casualty where the loss does not exceed Restoration Threshold, the affected Borrower may settle and adjust such claim; provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (b) such adjustment is carried out in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event of a Casualty where the loss exceeds the Restoration Threshold or if an Event of Default then exists, the affected Borrower may settle and adjust such claim only with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at such Borrower’s cost, in any such adjustments. Notwithstanding any Casualty, Borrowers shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement.

5.2.2 Condemnation. Borrowers shall give Lender prompt notice of any actual or threatened Condemnation by any Governmental Authority of all or any part of any Individual Property and shall deliver to Lender a copy of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in the event of a Condemnation where the amount of the taking does not exceed the Restoration Threshold, the affected Borrower may settle and compromise such Condemnation; provided that the same is

68-

effected in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event a Condemnation where the amount of the taking exceeds the Restoration Threshold or if an Event of Default then exists, the affected Borrower may settle and compromise the Condemnation only with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at such Borrower’s cost, in any litigation and settlement discussions in respect thereof and such Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by Lender to permit such participation. The affected Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any Condemnation, Borrowers shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by any Governmental Authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If any Individual Property or any portion thereof is taken by any Governmental Authority, the affected Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of such Individual Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 5.3. If such Individual Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.

5.2.3 Business Interruption Insurance Proceeds. Notwithstanding the second-to-last sentence of Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) and provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, proceeds received by Lender on account of the business interruption insurance specified in Subsection 5.1.1(a)(iii) above with respect to any Casualty shall be deposited by Lender directly into the Clearing Account; however, during the continuance of a Trigger Period such proceeds shall be deposited directly into the Deposit Account (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) but (a) only to the extent it reflects a replacement for (i) lost Rents that would have been due under Leases existing on the date of such Casualty, and/or (ii) lost Rents under Leases that had not yet been executed and delivered at the time of such Casualty which the affected Borrower has proven to the insurance company would have been due under such Leases (and then only to the extent such proceeds disbursed by the insurance company reflect a replacement for such past due Rents) and (b) only to the extent necessary to fully make the disbursements required by Section 3.3(a)(i) through 3.3(a)(vii) of the Cash Management Agreement. All other such proceeds shall be held by Lender and disbursed in accordance with Section 5.3 hereof.

Section 5.3 Delivery of Net Proceeds.

5.3.1 Minor Casualty or Condemnation. If a Casualty or Condemnation has occurred to any Individual Property and the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Restoration Threshold and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than the Restoration Threshold, and provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and remain uncured, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrowers. Promptly after receipt of the Net Proceeds, Borrowers shall commence and satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Net Proceeds are received by Borrowers and may be retained by Borrowers pursuant to the terms hereof, such Net Proceeds shall, until completion of the Restoration, be held in trust for Lender and shall be segregated from other funds of Borrowers to be used to pay for the cost of Restoration in accordance with the terms hereof.

69-

5.3.2 Major Casualty or Condemnation. (a) If a Casualty or Condemnation has occurred to any Individual Property and the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration, provided that each of the following conditions are met:

(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(ii) (A) in the event the Net Proceeds are insurance proceeds, less than thirty-three percent (33%) of the total floor area of the Improvements at such Individual Property that has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty or (B) in the event the Net Proceeds are an Award, less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting the affected Individual Property is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of such Individual Property, and no portion of the Improvements is the subject of the Condemnation;

(iii) Leases requiring payment of annual rent equal to eighty percent (80%) of the Gross Revenue at such Individual Property received by Borrower during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the Casualty or Condemnation and all Major Leases shall remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration without abatement of rent beyond the time required for Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation.

(iv) the affected Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;

(v) Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits and all payments of principal and interest under the Note will be paid during the period required for Restoration from (A) the Net Proceeds, or (B) other funds of Borrowers;

(vi) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (A) the date six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (B) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Lease at the related Individual Property or other Leases necessary to meet the condition set forth in clause (iii) above, (C) such time as may be required under applicable Legal Requirements in order to repair and restore such Individual Property to the condition it was in immediately prior to such Casualty or to as nearly as possible the condition it was in immediately prior to such Condemnation, as applicable or (D) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) unless Borrowers deposit with Lender additional amounts necessary to pay Debt Service and Operating Expenses for the period not covered by the insurance referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) through completion of the Restoration (provided, that, in no event shall Borrowers’ deposit of additional funds extend the deadline for completion of the Restoration otherwise set forth in (A)-(C) of this clause (vi));

70-

(vii) such Individual Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements;

(viii) the Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrowers in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements; and

(ix) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the loss of access to such Individual Property or the related Improvements.

(b) The Net Proceeds shall be paid directly to Lender and held by Lender in an interest-bearing account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2, shall constitute additional security for the Debt. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrowers from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all requirements set forth in Section 5.3.2(a) have been satisfied, (B) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (C) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Individual Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.

(c) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior approval of Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and an independent architect selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). The plans and specifications shall require that the Restoration be completed in a first-class workmanlike manner at least equivalent to the quality and character of the original work in the Improvements (provided, however, that in the case of a partial Condemnation, the Restoration shall be done to the extent reasonable practicable after taking into account the consequences of such partial Condemnation), so that upon completion thereof, the Individual Property shall be at least equal in value and general utility to such Individual Property prior to the damage or destruction; it being understood, however, that Borrowers shall not be obligated to restore the Individual Property to the precise condition of such Individual Property prior to such Casualty provided such Individual Property is restored, to the extent practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty. Borrowers shall restore all Improvements such that when they are fully restored and/or repaired, such Improvements and their contemplated use fully comply with all applicable material Legal Requirements. The identity of the general contractor and material subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to approval of Lender and the Casualty Consultant, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with recovering, holding and advancing the Net Proceeds for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees and disbursements, shall be paid by Borrower.

71-

(d) 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, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, less the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean, as to each contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 5.3.2(d), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2(d) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the affected Individual Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the related Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty 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 materialman.

(e) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(f) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrowers shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. 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 on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 5.3.2 shall constitute additional security for the Debt.

(g) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to

72-

Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2, and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrowers, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under any of the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents; provided, however, the amount of such excess returned to Borrowers in the case of a Condemnation shall not exceed the amount of Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited by Borrower with the balance being applied to the Debt in the manner provided for in Subsection 5.3.2(h).

(h) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrowers as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 5.3.2(g) may be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Components, whether or not due and payable, in the manner and priority specified in Section 2.4.2 or, at the discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrowers for such purposes as Lender shall designate.

Lender shall not be required to disburse Lease Termination Rollover Funds more frequently than once each calendar month, or with respect to any Individual Property, unless such requested disbursement is in an amount greater than the Minimum Disbursement Amount (or a lesser amount if the total amount of Lease Termination Rollover Funds is less than the Minimum Disbursement Amount, in which case only one disbursement of the amount remaining in the account shall be made). All Rent Deficiency disbursements made by Lender shall be deposited into the Deposit Account as if such sums were received by Borrowers as Rent during the calendar month after such request is made by Borrower.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right, at its option, to draw on any Letter of Credit and to apply all or any part thereof to the payment of the items for which such Letter of Credit was established or to apply each such Letter of Credit to payment of the Debt in such order, proportion or priority as Lender may determine. Any such application to the Debt shall be subject to the Yield Maintenance Premium. On the Maturity Date, any such Letter of Credit may be applied to reduce the Debt.

6.11.2 Additional Rights of Lender. In addition to any other right Lender may have to draw upon a Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender shall have the additional rights to draw in full any Letter of Credit: (a) with respect to any evergreen Letter of Credit, if Lender has received a notice from the issuing bank that the Letter of Credit will not be renewed and a substitute Letter of Credit is not provided at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the outstanding Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire; (b) with respect to any Letter of Credit with a stated expiration date, if Lender has not received a notice from the issuing bank that it has renewed the Letter of Credit at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire and a substitute Letter of Credit is not provided at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the outstanding Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire; (c) upon receipt of notice from the issuing bank that the Letter of Credit will be terminated (except if the termination of such Letter of Credit is permitted pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or a substitute Letter of Credit is provided); or (d) if Lender has received notice that the bank issuing the Letter of Credit shall cease to be an Eligible

81-

Institution.

Provided no Event of Default is continuing, draws of a Letter of Credit under this Section 6.11.2 shall thereafter be held as Reserve Funds in accordance with this Agreement.

VII. PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

Section 7.1 The Management Agreement.

Each Borrower shall cause the Manager of the Individual Property(ies) that it owns to manage the applicable Individual Property substantially in accordance with its Management Agreement. Each Borrower shall (i) diligently perform and observe all of the material terms, covenants and conditions of its Management Agreement on the part of such Borrower to be performed and observed, (ii) promptly notify Lender of any notice to such Borrower of any default by such Borrower in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of its Management Agreement on the part of such Borrower to be performed and observed, and (iii) upon request of Lender, promptly deliver to Lender a copy of each financial statement, business plan, capital expenditures plan, report and estimate received by it under each Management Agreement. If any Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of any Management Agreement on the part of such Borrower to be performed or observed, then, without limiting Lender’s other rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and without waiving or releasing such Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder or under such Management Agreement, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to Borrowers, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act as may be appropriate to cause all the material terms, covenants and conditions of such Management Agreement on the part of the Borrower to be performed or observed.

Section 7.2 Prohibition Against Termination or Modification.

No Borrower shall surrender, terminate, cancel, modify, renew or extend any Management Agreement, or enter into any other agreement relating to the management or operation of any Individual Property with Manager or any other Person, or consent to the assignment by the Manager of its interest under the related Management Agreement, in each case without the express consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, with respect to a new manager such consent may be conditioned upon Borrowers delivering a Rating Agency Confirmation as to such new manager and management agreement and, if such new manager is an Affiliate of Borrowers, upon delivery of a non-consolidation opinion acceptable to the Rating Agencies. If at any time Lender consents to the appointment of a new manager, such new manager and the applicable Borrower shall, as a condition of Lender’s consent, execute a subordination of management agreement in the form then used by Lender. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 7.2 to the contrary, Wells Management Company, Inc. is hereby approved by Lender as a substitute property manager for any Manager currently managing an Individual Property, provided, that, prior to Wells Management Company, Inc. becoming the manager of any Individual Property, Borrowers shall be required to satisfy each of the conditions set forth in this Section other than obtaining Lender’s approval or a Rating Agency Confirmation.

82-

Section 7.3 Replacement of Manager.

Lender shall have the right to require any Borrower to replace any Manager at any Individual Property with a Person which is not an Affiliate of, but is chosen by, such Borrower and approved by Lender upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events: (i) from and after the Maturity Date, (ii) at any time following the occurrence of an Event of Default, (iii) if at any time the Debt Service Coverage Ratio falls below 1.20 to 1.0 (the “Manager Termination Ratio”), as determined by Lender in its sole discretion on a quarterly basis and/or (iv) if such Manager shall be in monetary default or any other material default under its Management Agreement beyond any applicable notice and cure period or if at any time such Manager has engaged in gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (iii) above, the applicable Borrower shall nevertheless have the right to retain such Manager if, prior to the replacement of such Manager, Borrowers shall provide additional collateral in the form of Letters of Credit for a portion of the Loan, satisfactory to Lender, such that the Manager Termination Ratio can be maintained on the Loan Amount net of such additional collateral. Lender may require the Borrowers to increase the additional collateral to the extent such Debt Service Coverage Ratio continues to decline in subsequent quarters. Such additional collateral shall be released to Borrower when the Debt Service Coverage Ratio equals or exceeds the Manager Termination Ratio for six (6) consecutive months and provided no Event of Default has occurred. Letters of Credit provided under this section shall be additional security for the repayment of the Indebtedness and may be drawn upon by Lender upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and applied by Lender in such order and priority as Lender may determine in its sole discretion.

In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 9.2, such indemnified party shall pay for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party at the cost of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified party.

(e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in Section 9.2(b) or (c) is for any reason held to be unenforceable as to an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under Section 9.2(b) or (c), the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) Morgan Stanley’s and Borrowers’ relative knowledge and access to information

87-

concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender and Borrowers hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.

Section 10.2 Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrowers under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of the Guaranty Security Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrowers or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents with respect to all or any of the Individual Properties. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents or in the Guaranty Security Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Individual Properties and each Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.

(b) With respect to the Borrowers and the Individual Properties, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any Individual Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority to any other Individual Property, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of all of the Individual Properties or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Mortgages in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Mortgages then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrowers default beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose one or more Mortgages to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose one or more Mortgage to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by one or more Mortgages as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Individual Properties shall remain subject to the Mortgages to secure payment of sums secured by the Mortgages and not previously recovered.

as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrowers ratifying all that their said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrowers by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Except as may be required in connection with a Securitization pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, (i) Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents, and (ii) the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrowers only as of the Closing Date.

(d) Any amounts recovered from any Individual Property or any other collateral for the Loan after an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Components and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.

Section 10.3 Right to Cure Defaults.

Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrowers and without releasing Borrowers from any obligation hereunder or being deemed to have cured any Event of Default hereunder, make, do or perform any obligation of Borrowers hereunder in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary. Lender is authorized to enter upon any Individual Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in any Individual Property for such purposes, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 10.3, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after such cost or expense was incurred until the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by the liens, claims and security interests provided to Lender under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefore.

Section 10.4 Remedies Cumulative.

The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver

92-

thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

XI. MISCELLANEOUS

Prior to a Securitization, whenever pursuant to this Agreement the Rating Agencies are given any right to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory, based upon Lender’s determination of Rating Agency criteria, shall be substituted therefore.

Borrowers shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrowers are not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrowers hereby expressly waive the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrowers.

In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where, by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the other Guaranty Security Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrowers’ sole remedy shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

Any costs due and payable to Lender may be paid to Lender pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement.

(b) Borrowers shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender and its officers, directors, agents, employees (and the successors and assigns of the foregoing) (the “Lender Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Lender Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not the Lender Indemnitees shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Lender Indemnitees in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by any Borrower of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by any Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrowers shall not have any obligation to the Lender Indemnitees hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of the Lender Indemnitees. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrowers shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Lender Indemnitees.

Section 11.14 Schedules Incorporated.

The Schedules annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

Section 11.15 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses.

Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents shall take the same free and clear of all

98-

offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrowers may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrowers in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrowers.

Section 11.16 No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries.

(a) Each Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy in common, or joint tenancy relationship between any Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Individual Properties other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.

(b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.

Section 11.17 Publicity.

All news releases, publicity or advertising by either party to this Agreement through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents, to the parties, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior approval of the other party, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 11.18 Cross Default; Cross-Collateralization; Waiver of Marshalling of Assets.

(a) Borrowers acknowledge that Lender has made the Loan to Borrowers and has accepted the Guaranty of Other Loans from Borrowers upon the security of its collective interest in the Individual Properties and in reliance upon the aggregate of the Individual Properties taken together being of greater value as collateral security than the sum of the Individual Properties taken separately. Borrowers agree that the Mortgages are and will be cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with each other so that (i) an Event of Default under any of the Mortgages shall constitute an Event of Default under each of the other Mortgages which

99-

secure the Note and the Guaranty of Other Loans; (ii) an Event of Default under the Note, the Guaranty of Other Loans or this Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under each Mortgage; (iii) each First Mortgage shall constitute security for the Note as if a single blanket lien were placed on all of the Individual Properties as security for the Note, and (iv) each Second Mortgage shall constitute security for the Guaranty of Other Loans as if a single blanket lien were placed on all of the Individual Properties as security for the Guaranty of Other Loans.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of such Borrower, such Borrower’s partners and others with interests in any Borrower, and of the Individual Properties, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of all or any of the Mortgages, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents to a sale of the Individual Properties for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Individual Properties in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, each Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Mortgages, any equitable right otherwise available to such Borrower which would require the separate sale of the Individual Properties or require Lender to exhaust its remedies against any Individual Property or any combination of the Individual Properties before proceeding against any other Individual Property or combination of Individual Properties; and further in the event of such foreclosure Borrowers do hereby expressly consent to and authorize, at the option of Lender, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of any combination of the Individual Properties.

Section 11.19 Waiver of Offsets/Defenses/Counterclaims.

Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments which Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents.

Section 11.20 Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance.

In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents and Guaranty Security Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrowers acknowledge that, with respect to the Loan, Borrowers shall rely solely on their own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate

100-

of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in any Borrower, and each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrowers acknowledge that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrowers or its Affiliates.

Section 11.21 Brokers and Financial Advisors.

Borrowers hereby represent that they have dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrowers shall indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrowers or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein.

102-

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 Debt or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the Debt owing to Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents, and (B) the Debt shall be fully recourse to Borrowers in the event that: (i) any Borrower fails to obtain Lender’s prior written consent to any subordinate financing or other voluntary Lien encumbering the Individual Properties; (ii) any Borrower fails to obtain Lender’s prior written consent to any assignment, transfer, or conveyance of the Individual Properties or any interest therein as required by the Mortgages or this Agreement; (iii) any Borrower files a voluntary petition under the Bankruptcy code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (iv) an Affiliate, officer, director, or representative which controls, directly or indirectly, any Borrower files, or joins in the filing of, an involuntary petition against any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law, or solicits or causes to be solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition against any Borrower from any Person; (v) any Borrower files an answer consenting to or otherwise acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against it, by any other Person under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law, or solicits or causes to be solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition from any Person; (vi) any Affiliate, officer, director, or representative which controls any Borrower consents to or acquiesces in or joins in an application for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, or examiner for any Borrower or any portion of any Individual Property; or (vii) any Borrower makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits, in writing or in any legal proceeding, its insolvency or inability to pay its debts as they become due.

2.4.3 Prepayments After Default. If after an Event of Default, payment of all or any part of the principal of the Loan is tendered by Borrower, a purchaser at foreclosure or any other Person, such tender shall be deemed an attempt to circumvent the prohibition against prepayment set forth in Section 2.4.1 and Borrower, such purchaser at foreclosure or other Person shall pay the Yield Maintenance Premium, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts payable under the Loan Documents. Any amounts received by Lender while any Event of Default exists may be applied by Lender toward the payment of interest and/or principal of any of the Components and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper.

-36-

Individual Properties through the REIT’s ownership of Borrower; (e) has, with respect to the day-to-day operation of the Individual Properties, at all times held itself out to the public as a legal entity separate and distinct from any other Person (including any Affiliate or other Related Party); (f) has corrected any known misunderstanding regarding its status as a separate entity; (g) has, with respect to operation of the Individual Properties, conducted all of its business and held all of its assets in its own name; (k) has not, except for the Bank of America Guaranty (as defined below), held itself out as being responsible for the debts or obligations of any other Person; (l) has not guaranteed or become obligated for the debts of any other Person, except that the Borrower has guaranteed the obligations of certain affiliates pursuant to that certain credit agreement dated as of April 23, 2003 between (1) certain of Borrower’s affiliates and (2) Bank of America, N.A., in its capacity as Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and L/C Issuer and the associated lenders thereto, which obligation shall be discharged upon the Closing (the “Bank of America Guaranty”); (m) has not pledged its assets to secure the obligations of any other Person and, as of the Closing, no such pledge remains outstanding except in connection with the Loan; (n) has maintained adequate capital in light of its contemplated business operations; (o) has maintained, on its own or through Related Parties, a sufficient number of employees in light of its contemplated business operations and, with respect to the day-to-day operations of the Individual Properties, has paid the costs of third parties’ services required for the Individual Properties from its own funds; (p) has not owned any subsidiary or any equity interest in any other entity; (q) has not incurred any indebtedness that is still outstanding other than indebtedness that is permitted under the Loan Documents; and (r) has not had any of its obligations guaranteed by an Affiliate, except for (1) the Bank of America Guaranty which will be discharged as a result of the closing of the Loan, or (2) guarantees that are expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents.

Borrower shall not enter into, or be a party to, any transaction with an Affiliate of Borrower or any of the partners or members of Borrower except in the ordinary course of business and on terms which are fully disclosed to Lender in advance and are no less favorable to Borrower or such Affiliate than would be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction with an unrelated third party.

4.2.7 Zoning. Borrower shall not initiate or consent to any zoning reclassification of any portion of any of the Individual Properties or seek any variance under any existing zoning ordinance or use or permit the use of any portion of any of the Individual Properties in any manner that could result in such use becoming a non conforming use under any zoning ordinance or any other applicable land use law, rule or regulation, without the prior consent of Lender which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed if such action is required to be undertaken by Borrower pursuant to a Lease that Lender has approved.

4.2.8 Assets. Borrower shall not purchase or own any properties other than the Individual Properties and any property necessary or incidental for the operation of the Individual Properties.

4.2.9 No Joint Assessment.

In addition, Borrower shall obtain: (y) if any portion of the Improvements is currently or at any time in the future located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a “special flood hazard area,” flood hazard insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the Allocated Loan Amount for the related Individual Property or (2) the maximum amount of such insurance available under 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 such greater amount as Lender shall require or (3) $50,000,000 for flood zones A& C and $250,000,000 for other flood coverage; and (z) earthquake insurance in amounts and in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in the event the Individual Property is located in a seismic area designated as a Zone 3 or 4 by the Rating Agencies (Source: ICBC 1994 Uniform Building Code, or similar designation under successor standards), provided that the insurance pursuant to clauses (y) and (z) hereof shall be on terms consistent with the comprehensive all risk insurance policy required under this subsection (i).

projected gross income (less non-continuing expenses) from the related Individual Property for a period from the date of loss to a date (assuming total destruction) which is twelve (12) months from the date that the related Individual Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed. The amount of such business income insurance shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on the related Borrower’s reasonable estimate of the gross income (less non-continuing expenses) from each Individual Property for the succeeding twenty-four (24) month period. All proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Note; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Note and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such business income insurance;

(v) workers’ compensation, subject to the statutory limits of the state in which each Individual Property is located, and employer’s liability insurance, in an amount satisfying statutory requirements, in respect of any work or operations on or about each Individual Property, or in connection with each Individual Property or its operation (if applicable), provided, that, Borrower shall not be required to maintain insurance pursuant to this clause (v) for such time that it does not have any employees;

-51-

(ix) so-called “dramshop” insurance or other liability insurance required in connection with the sale of alcoholic beverages, provided, that, Borrower shall not be required to maintain insurance pursuant to this clause (ix) for such time that Borrower does not operate a business at any Individual Property that would cause a prudent lender to require such coverage;

(x) insurance against employee dishonesty in an amount not less than one (1) month of gross revenue from each Individual Property and with a deductible reasonably approved by Lender, provided, that, Borrower shall not be required to maintain insurance pursuant to this clause (x) for such time that it does not have any employees;

(xi) (A) during any period of the term of the Loan that TRIA is in effect, if “acts of terrorism” or other similar acts or events are hereafter excluded from Borrower’s comprehensive all risk insurance policy (including business income), Borrower shall obtain an endorsement to such policy, or a separate policy from an insurance provider which maintains at least an investment grade rating from Moody’s (that is, “Baa3”) and/or S&P (that is, “BBB-“) (provided that neither Moody’s nor S&P rates such provider less than investment grade), insuring against all “certified acts of terrorism” as defined by TRIA and “fire following”, each in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the “Full Replacement Cost,” of each Individual Property, which for purposes of this Agreement shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) with a waiver of depreciation, but the amount shall in no event be less than the total outstanding Allocated Loan Amount for such Individual Property; provided, however, the total annual premium payable by Borrower for each of the Individual Properties shall not exceed the Terrorism Insurance Premium Limit for such coverage for such Individual Property. The endorsement or policy shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and shall meet Rating Agency criteria for securitized loans; or

(B) during any period of the term of the Loan that TRIA is not in effect, if “acts of terrorism” or other similar acts or events or “fire following” are hereafter excluded from Borrower’s comprehensive all risk insurance policy or business income insurance coverage, Borrower shall obtain an endorsement to such policy, or a separate policy from an insurance provider which maintains at least an investment grade rating from Moody’s (that is, “Baa3”) and/or S&P (that is, “BBB-“) (provided that neither Moody’s nor S&P rates such provider less than investment grade), insuring against all such excluded acts or events, to the extent such policy or endorsement is available, in an amount determined by Lender in its sole discretion (but in no event greater than the total insurable value plus business income insurance coverage satisfying the provisions of clause (iii) above; provided, however, Borrower shall not be required to pay annual premiums in excess of the Terrorism Insurance Premium Limit for such coverage. The endorsement or policy shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and shall meet Rating Agency criteria for securitized loans; and

-52-

(d) All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Section 5.1.1(a) shall be primary coverage and, except for the Policy referenced in Section 5.1.1(a)(v), shall name Borrower as the insured and Lender and its successors and/or assigns as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood, earthquake and terrorism insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause or similar endorsement in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender. Borrower shall not procure or permit any of its constituent entities to procure any other insurance coverage which would be on the same level of payment as the Policies or would adversely impact in any way the ability of Lender or Borrower to collect any proceeds under any of the Policies.

(e) All Policies of insurance provided for in Section 5.1.1(a), except for the Policies referenced in Section 5.1.1(a)(v) and (a)(viii) shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:

(i) with respect to the insurance coverage obtained pursuant to Section 5.1.1(a)(i), (iii), (iv) and (vi) above, no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any Tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which 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) the Policy shall not be canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured and, if obtainable by Borrower using commercially reasonable efforts, shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) without such a thirty (30) day notice; and

-53-

(iii) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

(f) 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, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in each Individual Property, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate and all premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and until paid shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

(g) In the event of foreclosure of any Mortgage with respect to any Individual Property or other transfer of title to any Individual Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of the Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning such Individual Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

5.1.2 Insurance Company. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the state in which the subject Individual Property is located and having a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by S&P and Fitch and an insurance financial strength rating of “Aa2” by Moody’s. If a Securitization occurs, (i) the foregoing required insurance company rating by a Rating Agency not rating any Securities shall be disregarded and (ii) if the insurance company complies with the aforesaid S&P required rating (and S&P is rating the Securities) and the other Rating Agencies rating the Securities do not rate the insurance company, such insurance company shall be deemed acceptable with respect to such Rating Agency not rating such insurance company. If a Securitization occurs and S&P is not a Rating Agency, each of the insurance companies shall have a claims paying ability rating of at least A- by Fitch and an insurance financial strength rating of A3 by Moody’s and at least sixty-seven percent (67%) of the coverage shall be provided by insurance companies having claims paying ability ratings of AA by Fitch and an insurance financial strength rating of Aa2 by Moody’s; provided, however, if Fitch or Moody’s shall not provide a rating for an insurance company, then an A.M. Best rating of A(X) shall be substituted for each of the foregoing rating requirements of Fitch or Moody’s, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be permitted to maintain the Policies with insurance companies which do not meet the foregoing requirements (an “Otherwise Rated Insurer”), provided Borrower obtains a “cut-through” endorsement (that is, an endorsement which permits recovery against the provider of such endorsement) with respect to any Otherwise Rated Insurer from an insurance company which meets the claims paying ability ratings required above. Moreover, if Borrower desires to maintain insurance required hereunder from an insurance company which does not meet the claims paying ability ratings set forth herein but the parent of such insurance company, which owns at least fifty-one percent (51%) of such insurance company, maintains such ratings, Borrower may use such insurance companies if approved by the Rating Agencies (such approval may be conditioned on items required by the Rating Agencies including a requirement that the parent guarantee the obligations of such insurance company).

Section 5.2 Casualty and Condemnation.

5.2.1 Casualty. If any Individual Property shall sustain a Casualty, the Borrower that owns such Individual Property shall give prompt notice of such Casualty to Lender and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the repair and restoration of such Individual Property as nearly as possible to the condition such Individual Property was in immediately prior to such Casualty (a “Restoration”) and otherwise in accordance with Section 5.3, it being understood, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to restore such Individual Property to the precise condition of such Individual Property prior to such Casualty provided such Individual Property is restored, to the extent practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by the applicable Borrower. In the event of a Casualty where the loss does not exceed Restoration Threshold, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim; provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (b) such adjustment is carried out in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event of a Casualty where the loss exceeds the Restoration Threshold or if an Event of Default then exists, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim only with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost, in any such adjustments. Notwithstanding any Casualty, Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement.

5.2.2 Condemnation. Borrower shall give Lender prompt notice of any actual or threatened Condemnation by any Governmental Authority of all or any part of any Individual Property and shall deliver to Lender a copy of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in the event of a Condemnation where the amount of the taking does not exceed the Restoration Threshold, Borrower may settle and compromise such Condemnation; provided that the same is effected in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event a Condemnation where the amount of the taking exceeds the Restoration Threshold or if an Event of Default then exists, Borrower may settle and compromise the Condemnation only with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost, in any litigation and settlement discussions in respect thereof and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by Lender to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any Condemnation, Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by any Governmental Authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If any Individual Property or any portion thereof is taken by any Governmental Authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of such Individual Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 5.3. If such Individual Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.

-55-

5.2.3 Business Interruption Insurance Proceeds. Notwithstanding the second-to-last sentence of Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) and provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, proceeds received by Lender on account of the business interruption insurance specified in Subsection 5.1.1(a)(iii) above with respect to any Casualty shall be deposited by Lender directly into the Clearing Account; however, during the continuance of a Trigger Period such proceeds shall be deposited directly into the Deposit Account (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) but (a) only to the extent it reflects a replacement for (i) lost Rents that would have been due under Leases existing on the date of such Casualty, and/or (ii) lost Rents under Leases that had not yet been executed and delivered at the time of such Casualty which Borrower has proven to the insurance company would have been due under such Leases (and then only to the extent such proceeds disbursed by the insurance company reflect a replacement for such past due Rents) and (b) only to the extent necessary to fully make the disbursements required by Section 3.3(a)(i) through 3.3(a)(vii) of the Cash Management Agreement. All other such proceeds shall be held by Lender and disbursed in accordance with Section 5.3 hereof.

Section 5.3 Delivery of Net Proceeds.

5.3.1 Minor Casualty or Condemnation. If a Casualty or Condemnation has occurred to any Individual Property and the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Restoration Threshold and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than the Restoration Threshold, and provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and remain uncured, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower. Promptly after receipt of the Net Proceeds, Borrower shall commence and satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Net Proceeds are received by Borrower and may be retained by Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof, such Net Proceeds shall, until completion of the Restoration, be held in trust for Lender and shall be segregated from other funds of Borrower to be used to pay for the cost of Restoration in accordance with the terms hereof.

5.3.2 Major Casualty or Condemnation. (a) If a Casualty or Condemnation has occurred to any Individual Property and the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration, provided that each of the following conditions are met:

(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

-56-

(iv) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;

(vi) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (A) the date six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (B) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Lease at the related Individual Property or other Leases necessary to meet the condition set forth in clause (iii) above, (C) such time as may be required under applicable Legal Requirements in order to repair and restore such Individual Property to the condition it was in immediately prior to such Casualty or to as nearly as possible the condition it was in immediately prior to such Condemnation, as applicable or (D) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) unless Borrower deposits with Lender additional amounts necessary to pay Debt Service and Operating Expenses for the period not covered by the insurance referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) through completion of the Restoration (provided, that, in no event shall Borrower’s deposit of additional funds extend the deadline for completion of the Restoration otherwise set forth in (A)-(C) of this clause (vi));

(vii) such Individual Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements;

(viii) the Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements; and

(ix) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the loss of access to such Individual Property or the related Improvements.

-57-

(except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (C) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Individual Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.

(c) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior approval of Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and an independent architect selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). The plans and specifications shall require that the Restoration be completed in a first-class workmanlike manner at least equivalent to the quality and character of the original work in the Improvements (provided, however, that in the case of a partial Condemnation, the Restoration shall be done to the extent reasonable practicable after taking into account the consequences of such partial Condemnation), so that upon completion thereof, the Individual Property shall be at least equal in value and general utility to such Individual Property prior to the damage or destruction; it being understood, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to restore the Individual Property to the precise condition of such Individual Property prior to such Casualty provided such Individual Property is restored, to the extent practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty. Borrower shall restore all Improvements such that when they are fully restored and/or repaired, such Improvements and their contemplated use fully comply with all applicable material Legal Requirements. The identity of the general contractor and material subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to approval of Lender and the Casualty Consultant, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with recovering, holding and advancing the Net Proceeds for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees and disbursements, shall be paid by Borrower.

-58-

contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the related Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty 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 materialman.

(e) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(f) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. 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 on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 5.3.2 shall constitute additional security for the Debt.

(g) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2, and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under any of the Loan Documents; provided, however, the amount of such excess returned to Borrower in the case of a Condemnation shall not exceed the amount of Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited by Borrower with the balance being applied to the Debt in the manner provided for in Subsection 5.3.2(h).

(h) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 5.3.2(g) may be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Components, whether or not due and payable, in the manner and priority specified in Section 2.4.2 or, at the discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender shall designate.

Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (iii) above, the applicable Borrower shall nevertheless have the right to retain such Manager if, prior to the replacement of such Manager, Borrower shall provide additional collateral in the form of Letters of Credit for a portion of the Loan, satisfactory to Lender, such that the Manager Termination Ratio can be maintained on the Loan Amount net of such additional collateral.

Such additional collateral shall be released to Borrower when the Debt Service Coverage Ratio equals or exceeds the Manager Termination Ratio for six (6) consecutive months and provided no Event of Default has occurred.

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to all or any of the Individual Properties. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Individual Properties and the Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.

(b) With respect to the Borrower and the Individual Properties, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any Individual Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority to any other Individual Property, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of all of the Individual Properties or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Mortgage in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Mortgage then due and payable as determined by Lender in

-76-

its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower default beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose one or more Mortgage to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose one or more Mortgage to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by one or more Mortgage as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Individual Properties shall remain subject to the Mortgage to secure payment of sums secured by the Mortgage and not previously recovered.

(c) Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes and mortgages (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that their said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Except as may be required in connection with a Securitization pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, (i) Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents, and (ii) the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date.

(d) Any amounts recovered from any Individual Property or any other collateral for the Loan after an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Components and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.

-77-

interest at the Default Rate, for the period after such cost or expense was incurred until the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by the liens, claims and security interests provided to Lender under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefore.

Section 10.4 Remedies Cumulative. The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

XI.

Prior to a Securitization, whenever pursuant to this Agreement the Rating Agencies are given any right to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory, based upon Lender’s determination of Rating Agency criteria, shall be substituted therefore.

Section 11.9 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 11.10 Preferences. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder.

Section 11.11 Waiver of Notice. Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice.

Section 11.12 Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where, by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedy shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

(a) Borrower shall pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, reimburse Lender upon receipt of notice from Lender, for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (ii) Lender’s ongoing performance of and compliance with all agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iii) the negotiation, preparation, 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 requested by Borrower; (iv) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred, in creating and perfecting the Liens 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 or otherwise, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Individual Properties, or any other security given for the Loan; and (vi) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or with respect to the Individual Properties or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements

-82-

provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work out” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. Any costs due and payable to Lender may be paid to Lender pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement.

(b) Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender and its officers, directors, agents, employees (and the successors and assigns of the foregoing) (the “Lender Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Lender Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not the Lender Indemnitees shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Lender Indemnitees in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to the Lender Indemnitees hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of the Lender Indemnitees. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Lender Indemnitees.

Section 11.14 Schedules Incorporated. The Schedules annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

Section 11.15 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

Section 11.16 No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries.

(a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender.

-83-

(b) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.

Section 11.17 Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by either party to this Agreement through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents, to the parties, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior approval of the other party, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 11.18 Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Individual Properties, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Individual Properties for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Individual Properties in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage, any equitable right otherwise available to Borrower which would require the separate sale of the Individual Properties or require Lender to exhaust its remedies against any Individual Property or any combination of the Individual Properties before proceeding against any other Individual Property or combination of Individual Properties; and further in the event of such foreclosure Borrower hereby expressly consents to and authorizes, at the option of Lender, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of any combination of the Individual Properties.

Section 11.19 Waiver of Offsets/Defenses/Counterclaims. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments which Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents.

Section 11.20 Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of

-84-

the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on their own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.

Section 11.21 Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 11.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.

Section 11.22 Exculpation. Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage, the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except 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, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or in the Individual Properties, the Rents, or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Individual Properties, in the Rents and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage, the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section shall not, however, (a) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (b) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under the Mortgage; (c) affect the validity or enforceability of any guaranty made in connection with the Loan or any of the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder; (d) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (e) impair the enforcement of any of the Assignments of Leases; (f) constitute a prohibition against Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrower in order to fully realize on any security given by Borrower in connection with the Loan or to commence any other appropriate action or

In addition, Borrower shall obtain: (y) if any portion of the Improvements is currently or at any time in the future located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a “special flood hazard area,” flood hazard insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the Allocated Loan Amount or (2) the maximum amount of such insurance available under 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 such greater amount as Lender shall require or (3) $50,000,000 for flood zones A& C and $250,000,000 for other flood coverage; and (z) earthquake insurance in amounts and in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in the event the Individual Property is located in a seismic area designated as a Zone 3 or 4 by the Rating Agencies (Source: ICBC 1994 Uniform Building Code, or similar designation under successor standards), provided that the insurance pursuant to clauses (y) and (z) hereof shall be on terms consistent with the comprehensive all risk insurance policy required under this subsection (i).

combined limit, excluding umbrella coverage, of not less than One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate; (B) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate; and (C) to cover at least the following hazards: (1) premises and operations; (2) products and completed operations on an “if any” basis; (3) independent contractors; (4) blanket contractual liability for all legal contracts; and (5) contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in Article 9 of the Mortgage to the extent the same is available;

(iii) business income insurance (A) with loss payable to Lender; (B) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above for a period commencing at the time of loss for such length of time as it takes to repair or replace with the exercise of due diligence and dispatch; (C) containing an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property has been repaired, the continued loss of income at the Individual Property will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date that the Individual Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period; and (D) in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the projected gross income (less non-continuing expenses) from the Individual Property for a period from the date of loss to a date (assuming total destruction) which is twelve (12) months from the date that the Individual Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed. The amount of such business income insurance shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on the Borrower’s reasonable estimate of the gross income (less non-continuing expenses) from the Individual Property for the succeeding twenty-four (24) month period. All proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Note; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Note and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such business income insurance;

(iv) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements, and only if the Property coverage form does not otherwise apply, (A) owner’s contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy; and (B) the insurance provided for in subsection (i) above written in a so-called builder’s risk completed value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against all risks insured against pursuant to subsection (i) above, (3) including permission to occupy the Individual Property, and (4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;

-58

amount satisfying statutory requirements, in respect of any work or operations on or about the Individual Property, or in connection with the Individual Property or its operation (if applicable), provided, that, Borrower shall not be required to maintain insurance pursuant to this clause (v) for such time that it does not have any employees;

(ix) so-called “dramshop” insurance or other liability insurance required in connection with the sale of alcoholic beverages, provided, that, Borrower shall not be required to maintain insurance pursuant to this clause (ix) for such time that Borrower does not operate a business at the Individual Property that would cause a prudent lender to require such coverage;

(x) insurance against employee dishonesty in an amount not less than one (1) month of gross revenue from the Individual Property and with a deductible reasonably approved by Lender, provided, that, Borrower shall not be required to maintain insurance pursuant to this clause (x) for such time that it does not have any employees;

(xi) (A) during any period of the term of the Loan that TRIA is in effect, if “acts of terrorism” or other similar acts or events are hereafter excluded from Borrower’s comprehensive all risk insurance policy (including business income), Borrower shall obtain an endorsement to such policy, or a separate policy from an insurance provider which maintains at least an investment grade rating from Moody’s (that is, “Baa3”) and/or S&P (that is, “BBB-“) (provided that neither Moody’s nor S&P rates such provider less than investment grade), insuring against all “certified acts of terrorism” as defined by TRIA and “fire following”, each in an amount equal to one hundred percent (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 a waiver of depreciation, but the amount shall in no event be less than the total outstanding principal balance of the Loan; provided, however, the total annual premium payable by Borrower for the Individual Property shall not exceed the Terrorism Insurance Premium Limit for such coverage for

-59

the Individual Property. The endorsement or policy shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and shall meet Rating Agency criteria for securitized loans; or

(B) during any period of the term of the Loan that TRIA is not in effect, if “acts of terrorism” or other similar acts or events or “fire following” are hereafter excluded from Borrower’s comprehensive all risk insurance policy or business income insurance coverage, Borrower shall obtain an endorsement to such policy, or a separate policy from an insurance provider which maintains at least an investment grade rating from Moody’s (that is, “Baa3”) and/or S&P (that is, “BBB-“) (provided that neither Moody’s nor S&P rates such provider less than investment grade), insuring against all such excluded acts or events, to the extent such policy or endorsement is available, in an amount determined by Lender in its sole discretion (but in no event greater than the total insurable value plus business income insurance coverage satisfying the provisions of clause (iii) above; provided, however, Borrower shall not be required to pay annual premiums in excess of the Terrorism Insurance Premium Limit for such coverage. The endorsement or policy shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and shall meet Rating Agency criteria for securitized loans; and

(xii) upon sixty (60) days’ notice, such other reasonable insurance and in such reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Individual Property located in or around the region in which the Individual Property is located.

(c) Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Individual Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Individual Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 5.1.1(a).

(d) All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Section 5.1.1(a) shall be primary coverage and, except for the Policy referenced in Section 5.1.1(a)(v), shall name Borrower as the insured and Lender and its successors and/or assigns as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood, earthquake and terrorism insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause or similar endorsement in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender. Borrower shall not procure or permit any of its constituent entities to procure any other insurance coverage which would be on the same level of payment as the Policies or would adversely impact in any way the ability of Lender or Borrower to collect any proceeds under any of the Policies.

-60

(e) All Policies of insurance provided for in Section 5.1.1(a), except for the Policies referenced in Section 5.1.1(a)(v) and (a)(viii) shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:

(ii) the Policy shall not be canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured and, if obtainable by Borrower using commercially reasonable efforts, shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) without such a thirty (30) day notice; and

(iii) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

(f) 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, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Individual Property, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate and all premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and until paid shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

(g) In the event of foreclosure of any Mortgage with respect to the Individual Property or other transfer of title to the Individual Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of the Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning the Individual Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

5.1.2 Insurance Company. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the state in which the Individual Property is located and having a claims paying ability rating of “A” or better by S&P and Fitch and an insurance financial strength rating of “Aa2” by Moody’s. If a Securitization occurs, (i) the foregoing required insurance company rating by a Rating Agency not rating any Securities shall be disregarded and (ii) if the insurance company complies with the aforesaid S&P required rating (and S&P is rating the Securities) and the other Rating Agencies rating the Securities do not rate the insurance company, such insurance company shall be deemed

-61

acceptable with respect to such Rating Agency not rating such insurance company. If a Securitization occurs and S&P is not a Rating Agency, each of the insurance companies shall have a claims paying ability rating of at least A- by Fitch and an insurance financial strength rating of A3 by Moody’s and at least sixty-seven percent (67%) of the coverage shall be provided by insurance companies having claims paying ability ratings of AA by Fitch and an insurance financial strength rating of Aa2 by Moody’s; provided, however, if Fitch or Moody’s shall not provide a rating for an insurance company, then an A.M. Best rating of A(X) shall be substituted for each of the foregoing rating requirements of Fitch or Moody’s, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be permitted to maintain the Policies with insurance companies which do not meet the foregoing requirements (an “Otherwise Rated Insurer”), provided Borrower obtains a “cut-through” endorsement (that is, an endorsement which permits recovery against the provider of such endorsement) with respect to any Otherwise Rated Insurer from an insurance company which meets the claims paying ability ratings required above. Moreover, if Borrower desires to maintain insurance required hereunder from an insurance company which does not meet the claims paying ability ratings set forth herein but the parent of such insurance company, which owns at least fifty-one percent (51%) of such insurance company, maintains such ratings, Borrower may use such insurance companies if approved by the Rating Agencies (such approval may be conditioned on items required by the Rating Agencies including a requirement that the parent guarantee the obligations of such insurance company).

Section 5.2 Casualty and Condemnation.

5.2.1 Casualty. If the Individual Property shall sustain a Casualty, Borrower shall give prompt notice of such Casualty to Lender and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the repair and restoration of the Individual Property as nearly as possible to the condition the Individual Property was in immediately prior to such Casualty (a “Restoration”) and otherwise in accordance with Section 5.3, it being understood, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to restore the Individual Property to the precise condition of the Individual Property prior to such Casualty provided the Individual Property is restored, to the extent practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty. The Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by the applicable Borrower. In the event of a Casualty where the loss does not exceed Restoration Threshold, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim; provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (b) such adjustment is carried out in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event of a Casualty where the loss exceeds the Restoration Threshold or if an Event of Default then exists, Borrower may settle and adjust such claim only with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost, in any such adjustments. Notwithstanding any Casualty, Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement.

5.2.2 Condemnation. Borrower shall give Lender prompt notice of any actual or threatened Condemnation by any Governmental Authority of all or any part of the Individual Property and shall deliver to Lender a copy of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in the event of a

-62

Condemnation where the amount of the taking does not exceed the Restoration Threshold, Borrower may settle and compromise such Condemnation; provided that the same is effected in a commercially reasonable and timely manner. In the event a Condemnation where the amount of the taking exceeds the Restoration Threshold or if an Event of Default then exists, Borrower may settle and compromise the Condemnation only with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost, in any litigation and settlement discussions in respect thereof and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by Lender to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any Condemnation, Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by any Governmental Authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If the Individual Property or any portion thereof is taken by any Governmental Authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Individual Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 5.3. If the Individual Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.

5.2.3 Business Interruption Insurance Proceeds. Notwithstanding the second-to-last sentence of Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) and provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, proceeds received by Lender on account of the business interruption insurance specified in Subsection 5.1.1(a)(iii) above with respect to any Casualty shall be deposited by Lender directly into the Clearing Account; however, during the continuance of a Trigger Period such proceeds shall be deposited directly into the Deposit Account (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) but (a) only to the extent it reflects a replacement for (i) lost Rents that would have been due under Leases existing on the date of such Casualty, and/or (ii) lost Rents under Leases that had not yet been executed and delivered at the time of such Casualty which Borrower has proven to the insurance company would have been due under such Leases (and then only to the extent such proceeds disbursed by the insurance company reflect a replacement for such past due Rents) and (b) only to the extent necessary to fully make the disbursements required by Section 3.3(a)(i) through 3.3(a)(vii) of the Cash Management Agreement. All other such proceeds shall be held by Lender and disbursed in accordance with Section 5.3 hereof.

Section 5.3 Delivery of Net Proceeds.

5.3.1 Minor Casualty or Condemnation. If a Casualty or Condemnation has occurred to the Individual Property and the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Restoration Threshold and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than the Restoration Threshold, and provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and remain uncured, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower. Promptly after receipt of the Net Proceeds, Borrower shall commence and satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Net Proceeds are received by Borrower and may be retained by Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof, such Net Proceeds shall, until

-63

completion of the Restoration, be held in trust for Lender and shall be segregated from other funds of Borrower to be used to pay for the cost of Restoration in accordance with the terms hereof.

5.3.2 Major Casualty or Condemnation. (a) If a Casualty or Condemnation has occurred to the Individual Property and the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration, provided that each of the following conditions are met:

(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(ii) (A) in the event the Net Proceeds are insurance proceeds, less than thirty-three percent (33%) of the total floor area of the Improvements at the Individual Property that has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty or (B) in the event the Net Proceeds are an Award, less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting the Individual Property is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Individual Property, and no portion of the Improvements is the subject of the Condemnation;

(iii) Leases requiring payment of annual rent equal to eighty percent (80%) of the Gross Revenue at the Individual Property received by Borrower during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the Casualty or Condemnation and all Major Leases shall remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration without abatement of rent beyond the time required for Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation.

(vi) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (A) the date six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (B) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Lease at the Individual Property or other Leases necessary to meet the condition set forth in clause (iii) above, (C) such time as may be required under applicable Legal Requirements in order to repair and restore the Individual Property to the condition it was in immediately prior to such Casualty or to as nearly as possible the condition it was in immediately prior to such Condemnation, as applicable or (D) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) unless Borrower deposits with Lender additional amounts necessary to pay Debt Service and Operating Expenses for the period not covered by the insurance referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii) through completion of the

-64

Restoration (provided, that, in no event shall Borrower’s deposit of additional funds extend the deadline for completion of the Restoration otherwise set forth in (A)-(C) of this clause (vi));

(vii) the Individual Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements;

(viii) the Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements; and

(ix) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the loss of access to the Individual Property or the related Improvements.

(b) The Net Proceeds shall be paid directly to Lender and held by Lender in an interest-bearing account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2, shall constitute additional security for the Debt. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all requirements set forth in Section 5.3.2(a) have been satisfied, (B) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (C) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Individual Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.

(c) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior approval of Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and an independent architect selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). The plans and specifications shall require that the Restoration be completed in a first-class workmanlike manner at least equivalent to the quality and character of the original work in the Improvements (provided, however, that in the case of a partial Condemnation, the Restoration shall be done to the extent reasonable practicable after taking into account the consequences of such partial Condemnation), so that upon completion thereof, the Individual Property shall be at least equal in value and general utility to the Individual Property prior to the damage or destruction; it being understood, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to restore the Individual Property to the precise condition of the Individual Property prior to such Casualty provided the Individual Property is restored, to the extent practicable, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to the Casualty. Borrower shall restore all Improvements such that when they are fully restored and/or repaired, such Improvements and their contemplated use fully comply with all applicable material Legal Requirements. The identity of the general contractor and material subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to approval of Lender and the Casualty Consultant, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with recovering, holding and advancing the Net Proceeds for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees and disbursements, shall be paid by Borrower.

-65

(d) 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, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, less the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean, as to each contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 5.3.2(d), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2(d) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Individual Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the related Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty 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 materialman.

(e) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(f) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. 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 on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 5.3.2 shall constitute additional security for the Debt.

(g) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to

-66

Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.2, and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under any of the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents; provided, however, the amount of such excess returned to Borrower in the case of a Condemnation shall not exceed the amount of Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited by Borrower with the balance being applied to the Debt in the manner provided for in Subsection 5.3.2(h).

VI. RESERVE FUNDS

Section 6.1 Required Repair Fund.

6.1.1 Deposit of Required Repair Funds. Borrower shall perform the repairs at the Individual Property as more particularly set forth on Schedule II hereto (such repairs hereinafter referred to as “Required Repairs”) and shall complete each of the Required Repairs on or before the respective deadline for each repair as set forth on Schedule II. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall deposit with Agent the amount for the Individual Property set forth on such Schedule II hereto to perform the Required Repairs for the Individual Property. Amounts deposited pursuant to this Section 6.1.1 are referred to herein as the “Required Repair Funds.”

6.1.2 Release of Required Repair Funds. Lender shall direct Agent to disburse to the applicable Borrower the Required Repair Funds upon satisfaction by Borrower of each of the following conditions: (a) Borrower shall submit a written request for payment to Lender at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which Borrower requests such payment be made and specifies the Required Repairs to be paid, (b) on the date such request is received by Lender and on the date such payment is to be made, no Event of Default shall exist and remain uncured, (c) Lender shall have received an Officer’s Certificate (i) stating that all Required Repairs to be funded by the requested disbursement have been completed in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements, such certificate to be accompanied by a copy of any license, permit or other approval by any Governmental Authority required in connection with the Required Repairs, (ii) identifying the general contractor and material subcontractors and suppliers that supplied materials or labor in connection with the Required Repairs performed at the Individual Property to be funded by the requested disbursement, and (iii) stating that each such Person has been paid in full or will be paid in full upon such disbursement, such certificate to be accompanied by lien waivers or other evidence of payment satisfactory to Lender, (d) at Lender’s option, a title search for the Individual Property for which Required Repair Funds are being disbursed indicating that the Individual Property is free from all liens, claims and other encumbrances not previously approved by Lender, (e) at Lender’s option, if the cost of the Required Repairs exceeds $500,000, Lender shall have received a report

-67

satisfactory to Lender in its reasonable discretion from an architect or engineer approved by Lender in respect of such architect or engineer’s inspection of the required repairs, and (f) Lender shall have received such other evidence as Lender shall reasonably request that the Required Repairs to be funded by the requested disbursement have been completed and are paid for or will be paid upon such disbursement to Borrower. Lender shall not be required to disburse Required Repair Funds more frequently than once each calendar month, or with respect to the Individual Property unless such requested disbursement is in an amount greater than the Minimum Disbursement Amount (or a lesser amount if the total Required Repair Funds is less than the Minimum Disbursement Amount, in which case only one disbursement of the amount remaining in the account shall be made).

Section 6.2 Tax Funds.

6.2.1 Deposits of Tax Funds. During the continuance of a Trigger Period only, pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement there shall be deposited on each Monthly Payment Date an amount equal to one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least ten (10) days prior to their respective due dates. Amounts deposited pursuant to this Section 6.2.1 are referred to herein as the “Tax Funds.” If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Tax Funds will not be sufficient to pay the Taxes, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and the monthly deposits for Taxes shall be increased by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least ten (10) days prior to the respective due dates for the Taxes; provided that if Borrower receives notice of any deficiency after the date that is ten (10) days prior to the date that Taxes are due, Borrower will deposit such amount within three (3) Business Days after its receipt of such notice.

6.2.2 Release of Tax Funds. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall apply the Tax Funds, if any, to payments of Taxes.

If at any time Lender consents to the appointment of a new manager, such new manager and the applicable Borrower shall, as a condition of Lender’s consent, execute a subordination of management agreement in the form then used by Lender.

-76

period or if at any time such Manager has engaged in gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (iii) above, the applicable Borrower shall nevertheless have the right to retain such Manager if, prior to the replacement of such Manager, Borrower shall provide additional collateral in the form of Letters of Credit for a portion of the Loan, satisfactory to Lender, such that the Manager Termination Ratio can be maintained on the Loan Amount net of such additional collateral. Lender may require the Borrower to increase the additional collateral to the extent such Debt Service Coverage Ratio continues to decline in subsequent quarters. Such additional collateral shall be released to Borrower when the Debt Service Coverage Ratio equals or exceeds the Manager Termination Ratio for six (6) consecutive months and provided no Event of Default has occurred. Letters of Credit provided under this section shall be additional security for the repayment of the Indebtedness and may be drawn upon by Lender upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and applied by Lender in such order and priority as Lender may determine in its sole discretion.

The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified party.

(f) The liabilities and obligations of both of Borrower and Lender under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (vi), (vii) or (viii) above) and at any time thereafter Lender may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents or at law or in equity, take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Individual Property, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and any or all of the Individual Property, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above, the Debt and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document or in any of the Guaranty Security Documents to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section 10.2 Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of the Guaranty Security Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents with respect to the Individual Property. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents or in the Guaranty Security Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Individual Property and the Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.

-84

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

(c) Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other Guaranty Security Documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that their said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Except as may be required in connection with a Securitization pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, (i) Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents, and (ii) the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date.

(d) Any amounts recovered from the Individual Property or any other collateral for the Loan after an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Components and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.

-85

Section 10.3 Right to Cure Defaults. Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder or being deemed to have cured any Event of Default hereunder, make, do or perform any obligation of Borrower hereunder in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary. Lender is authorized to enter upon the Individual Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Individual Property for such purposes, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 10.3, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after such cost or expense was incurred until the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by the liens, claims and security interests provided to Lender under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefore.

XI. MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.2 Lender’s Discretion. Whenever pursuant to this Agreement Lender exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in the sole discretion of Lender and shall be final and conclusive. Prior to a Securitization, whenever pursuant to this Agreement the Rating Agencies are given any right to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory, based upon Lender’s determination of Rating Agency criteria, shall be substituted therefore.

Section 11.10 Preferences. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

Section 11.11 Waiver of Notice. s shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.

Section 11.12 Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where, by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the other Guaranty Security Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedy shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. Any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.

Section 11.13 Expenses; Indemnity.

(a) Borrower shall pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, reimburse Lender upon receipt of notice from Lender, for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable

-90

attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) Borrower’s ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (ii) Lender’s ongoing performance of and compliance with all agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iii) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower; (iv) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred, in creating and perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security 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 or otherwise, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Guaranty Security Documents, the Individual Property, or any other security given for the Loan; and (vi) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Guaranty Security Documents or with respect to the Individual Property 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; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. Any costs due and payable to Lender may be paid to Lender pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement.

(b) Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender and its officers, directors, agents, employees (and the successors and assigns of the foregoing) (the “Lender Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Lender Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not the Lender Indemnitees shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Lender Indemnitees in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to the Lender Indemnitees hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of the Lender Indemnitees. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Lender Indemnitees.

-91

Section 11.14 Schedules Incorporated. The Schedules annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

Section 11.15 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

Section 11.16 No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries.

Section 11.17 Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by either party to this Agreement through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents, to the parties, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior approval of the other party, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 11.18 Cross Default; Cross-Collateralization; Waiver of Marshalling of Assets.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Individual Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of all or any of the Mortgage, and agrees

-92

not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents to a sale of the Individual Property for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Individual Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Mortgage, any equitable right otherwise available to Borrower which would require the separate sale of the Individual Property or require Lender to exhaust its remedies against the Individual Property.

Section 11.19 Waiver of Offsets/Defenses/Counterclaims. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments which Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents.

Section 11.20 Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents and Guaranty Security Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on their own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.

-93

Section 11.22 Exculpation. Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage, the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except 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, this Agreement, the Mortgages, the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents, or in the Individual Property, the Rents, or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Individual Property, in the Rents and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgages, the other Loan Documents and the Guaranty Security Documents, shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgages, the other Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents. The provisions of this Section shall not, however, (a) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents or the Guaranty Security Documents; (b) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under any of the Mortgages; (c) affect the validity or enforceability of any guaranty made in connection with the Loan or any of the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder; (d) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (e) impair the enforcement of any of the Assignments of Leases; (f) constitute a prohibition against Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrower in order to fully realize on any security given by Borrower in connection with the Loan or to commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Lender to exercise its remedies against such security; or (g) constitute a waiver of the right of Lender to enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower, by money judgment or otherwise, to the extent of any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation incurred by Lender (including attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred) arising out of or in connection with the following:

(i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation by Borrower or any guarantor in connection with the Loan;

(ii) the gross negligence or intentionally tortious conduct of Borrower;

(iv) the removal or disposal of any portion of the Individual Property after an Event of Default;

(v) the misapplication or conversion by Borrower of (A) any insurance proceeds paid by reason of any loss, damage or destruction to the Individual Property, (B) any Awards or other amounts received in connection with the Condemnation of all or a portion of the Individual Property, or (C) any Rents following an Event of Default;

-94

(vi) failure to pay charges for labor or materials or other charges that can create Liens on any portion of the Individual Property unless Borrower promptly bonds off the resulting Lien from the Individual Property to the reasonable satisfaction of the Lender and in compliance with applicable law;

(vii) any security deposits, advance deposits or any other deposits collected with respect to the Individual Property which are not delivered to Lender upon a foreclosure of the Individual Property or action in lieu thereof, except to the extent any such security deposits were applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of any of the Leases prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default that gave rise to such foreclosure or action in lieu thereof; and
