had been made, executed and delivered by Assuming Borrower.
Assuming Borrower agrees to pay when and as due all sums due under
the Note and agrees to pay, perform and discharge each and every
other obligation of payment and performance of the

otherwise in all respects as therein provided. Assuming Borrower

agreements of the “Indemnitor,” “Guarantor”
or “Principal” (collectively referred to herein as
“ Indemnitor ”) under the Indemnity
Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to which Original Indemnitor is a party. Assuming
Indemnitor shall be liable and responsible for each and all of the
liabilities of the Indemnitor thereunder, and shall be substituted
in lieu of and in place of Original Indemnitor as fully and
completely as if Assuming Indemnitor had originally executed and
delivered such Loan Documents as the Indemnitor thereunder
including, without limitation, all of those obligations, agreements
and liabilities which would have, but for the provisions of this
Agreement, been the obligations, agreements and liabilities of
Original Indemnitor, without regard to when such obligations,
agreements and liabilities arise, accrue or have arisen or accrued,
and without regard to the Indemnitor then responsible or liable
therefor at the time of such accrual. From and after the date
hereof, Assuming Indemnitor further agrees to abide by and be bound
by all of the terms of the Loan Documents having reference to the
Indemnitor, all as though each of the Loan Documents to which
Original Indemnitor is a party had been made, executed and
delivered by Assuming Indemnitor as the Indemnitor. From and after
the date hereof, Assuming Indemnitor hereby agrees to pay, perform
and discharge each and every obligation of payment and performance
of the Indemnitor under, pursuant to and as set forth in the Loan
Documents at the time, in the manner and otherwise in all respects
as therein provided. With respect to the Environmental Indemnity
Agreement, the liability of Assuming Indemnitor shall be joint and
several with that of Assuming Borrower.
5.
Notices to Indemnitor . Without amending, modifying or
otherwise affecting the provisions of the Loan Documents except as
expressly set forth herein, Lender shall, from and after the date
of this Agreement, deliver any notices to the Indemnitor which are

subject to the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (b) the
assumption by Assuming Borrower of the Loan and the obligations of
Original Borrower under the Loan Documents as modified by this
Agreement; and (c) the assumption by Assuming Indemnitor of
the obligations of Original Indemnitor under the Loan Documents as
modified by this Agreement. Original Obligors are hereby released
from any liability to Lender under any and all of the Loan
Documents first arising or accruing subsequent to the Assumption.

however, not constitute its consent to any subsequent transfers of
the Property. Original Obligors hereby acknowledge and agree that
the foregoing release shall not be construed to release Original
Obligors from any personal liability under the Note or any of the
other Loan Documents for any act or event occurring or obligation
arising prior to or simultaneously with the closing of the
transaction described herein.
Lender

Obligors that, to the “actual knowledge of Lender”:
(i) as of the date hereof, no default or Event of Default

paragraph, the “actual knowledge of Lender” shall mean
the actual knowledge of employees of Wachovia Bank National
Association (“ Wachovia ”) actively
involved with the transactions described herein or with the
servicing of the Loan without any independent inquiry or
investigation. The “actual knowledge of Lender” shall
not include knowledge imputed from other Lender Parties or other
groups or employees of Wachovia not actively involved in the
servicing of the Loan. Lender reserves the right to declare any
existing default or Event of Default which is not currently known
but which subsequently comes to the attention of Lender.

instituted or continue prosecution of any suit or other form of
action or proceeding of any kind or nature whatsoever against any
of Lender Parties by reason of or in connection with any of the
foregoing matters, claims or causes of action. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, this Section 7 shall only
