All payments and other amounts due under the Note, this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents shall be made without any setoff,
defense or irrespective of, and without deduction for,
counterclaims.
2.2.2

of the Note 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 equal to the Applicable Interest
Rate divided by three hundred sixty (360) by (c) the outstanding
principal balance of the Note.
2.2.3
Payments Before Maturity Date.
Monthly installments of interest only, in
arrears, shall be paid on each Payment Date commencing on December
1, 2007, and on each subsequent Payment Date thereafter to but not

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, (a) interest on the outstanding principal
balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law,
overdue interest and other amounts due in respect of the Loan,
shall accrue at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such
payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods
contained herein and (b) Lender shall be entitled to receive and
Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date during such
period an amount equal to the Net Cash Flow After Debt Service for
the prior month, such amount to be applied by Lender to the payment
of the Debt in such order as Lender shall determine in its sole
discretion, including alternating applications thereof between
interest and principal. Interest at the Default Rate and Net Cash
Flow After Debt Service shall both be computed from the occurrence
of the Event of Default until the actual receipt and collection of
the Debt (or that portion thereof that is then due). To the extent
permitted by Applicable Law, interest at the Default Rate shall be
added to the Debt, shall itself accrue interest at the same rate as
the Loan and shall be secured by the Pledge Agreement. This Section
2.2.6 shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend
the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other
right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of
any Event of Default; the acceptance of any payment of Net Cash
Flow After Debt Service shall not be deemed to cure or constitute a
waiver of any Event of Default; and Lender shall retain its rights
under the Note to accelerate and to continue to demand payment of
the Debt upon the happening of any Event of Default, despite any
payment of Net Cash Flow After Debt Service.
2.2.7
Late Payment Charge.
If
any principal, interest or any other sums due under the Loan
Documents (other than the principal sum due on the Maturity Date or
on any accelerated maturity of the Note) is not paid by Borrower on
the date on which it is due (notwithstanding any grace period
hereunder, under the Note or the other Loan Documents), Borrower
shall pay to Lender within five (5) days after Lender’s
demand therefor an amount equal to the lesser of two percent (2%)
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. Any such amount
shall be secured by the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.
2.2.8
Usury Savings.
This Agreement and the Note are subject to the
express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or
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 Applicable Interest Rate or the Default
Rate, as applicable, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to
the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess
of
38
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 of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the
Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.
2.2.9
Foreign Taxes.
The
provisions of this Section 2.2.9 shall only apply so long as a
Securitization has not occurred. All payments made by Borrower
hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction
for or on account of, Foreign Taxes or U.S. Taxes, excluding, in
the case of Lender or any Co-Lender, Foreign Taxes or U.S. Taxes
measured by its net income, receipts, capital, net worth and
franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws
of which Lender or any Co-Lender is resident or organized, or any
political subdivision thereof and, in the case of Lender or any
Co-Lender, taxes measured by its overall net income, receipts,
capital, net worth and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the
jurisdiction of Lender’s or such Co-Lender’s applicable
lending office or any political subdivision thereof or in which
Lender or such Co-Lender is resident or engaged in business. If any
non excluded Foreign Taxes or U.S. Taxes are required to be
withheld from any amounts payable to Lender or any Co-Lender
hereunder, the amounts so payable to Lender or such Co-Lender shall
be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Lender or such
Co-Lender (after payment of all non excluded Foreign Taxes or U.S.
Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the
rate or in the amounts specified hereunder. Whenever any non
excluded Foreign Tax or U.S. Tax is payable pursuant to Applicable
Law by Borrower, Borrower shall send to Lender or the applicable
Co-Lender, within thirty (30) days after such payment, an original
official receipt showing payment of such non excluded Foreign Tax
or U.S. Tax or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to
Lender or the applicable Co-Lender. Borrower hereby indemnifies
Lender and each Co-Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or
penalties that may become payable by Lender or any Co-Lender which
may result from any failure or delay by Borrower to pay any such
non excluded Foreign Tax or U.S. Tax when due to the appropriate
taxing authority or any failure or delay by Borrower to remit to
Lender or any Co-Lender the required receipts or other reasonable
evidence of such payment, provided, however , that
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (a) the
obligation to pay such additional amounts required under this
Section 2.2.9 shall not apply to any Foreign Taxes which otherwise
constitute Excluded Taxes and (b) in the event that Lender or any
Co-Lender or any successor and/or assign of Lender or any Co-Lender
is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America
or a state thereof, Lender and any such Co-Lender agrees that,
prior to the first date on which any payment is due such entity
hereunder, it will deliver to Borrower (i) two duly completed
copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or
W-8ECI or successor applicable form, as the case may be, certifying
in each case that such entity is entitled to receive payments under
the Note, without deduction or withholding of any United States
federal income taxes, or (ii) an Internal Revenue
39
Service Form W-9 or successor applicable form,
as the case may be, to establish an exemption from United States
backup withholding tax on all interest payments hereunder. Each
entity required to deliver to Borrower a Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or
Form W-9 pursuant to the preceding sentence further undertakes to
deliver to Borrower two (2) further copies of such letter and
W-8BEN or W-8ECI or Form W-9, or successor applicable forms, or
other manner of certification, as the case may be, on or before the
date that any such letter or form expires (which, in the case of
the Form W-8ECI, is the last day of each U.S. taxable year of the
non U.S. entity) or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any
event requiring a change in the most recent letter and form
previously delivered by it to Borrower, and such other extensions
or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by Borrower,
certifying in the case of a Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI that such entity
is entitled to receive payments under the Note without deduction or
withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless in
any such case any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred
prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be
required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would
prevent such entity from duly completing and delivering any such
letter or form with respect to it and such entity advises Borrower
that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction
or withholding of United States federal income tax, and in the case
of a Form W-9, establishing an exemption from United States backup
withholding tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such entity
fails to provide a duly completed Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or other
applicable form and, under Applicable Law, in order to avoid
liability for Foreign Taxes or U.S. Taxes, Borrower is required to
withhold on payments made to such entity that has failed to provide
the applicable form, Borrower shall be entitled to withhold the
appropriate amount of Foreign Taxes or U.S. Taxes and Borrower
shall have no obligation to pay any additional amounts to such
entity under this Section 2.2.9. In such event, Borrower shall
promptly provide to such entity evidence of payment of such Foreign
Taxes or U.S. Taxes to the appropriate taxing authority and shall
promptly forward to such entity any official tax receipts or other
documentation with respect to the payment of the Foreign Taxes or
U.S. Taxes as may be issued by the taxing authority.
Section

courier), but no more than sixty (60) days’ prior written
notice to Lender, prepay the Debt in whole or in part, provided (i)
Borrower pays to Lender all accrued and unpaid interest on the
amount of principal being prepaid through and including the date of

Payment Date, all interest which would have accrued on the amount
of principal being prepaid after the date of such prepayment to the
next Payment Date (the “ Interest Shortfall ”);
(ii) Mezzanine B Borrower simultaneously prepays the Mezzanine B
Loan in whole, but not in part (except in connection with the

Agreement by a dollar amount which bears the same relation to the
principal amount of the Mezzanine B
40
Loan outstanding immediately prior to such
prepayment as the amount of the Loan prepaid pursuant to this
Section 2.3.1 bears to the principal amount of the Loan outstanding
immediately prior to such prepayment; and (iii) if such prepayment
occurs prior to the Prepayment Consideration Period End Date,
Borrower pays to Lender the Prepayment Consideration.
Borrower shall be permitted the right to
rescind and revoke or postpone its notice of prepayment given in
accordance with this Section 2.3.1, provided that (i) a written
notice of such rescission and revocation or postponement is
received by Lender no sooner than three (3) Business Days prior to

Event ”), Borrower shall cause the related Net

with Lender and to be applied in accordance with the applicable
provisions of this Section 2.3.2(a). On each date on which Lender
actually receives a distribution of Net Liquidation Proceeds After
Debt Service, if such date is a Payment Date, such Net Liquidation
Proceeds After Debt Service shall be applied to the outstanding
principal balance of the Note and all other sums then due hereunder
or under the Loan Documents and any remaining Net Liquidation
Proceeds After Debt Service shall be disbursed to Borrower. In the
event Lender receives a distribution of Net Liquidation Proceeds
After Debt Service on a date other than a Payment Date, such
amounts 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 in accordance
with the immediately preceding sentence on the next Payment Date.
No Prepayment Consideration or any other prepayment premium or
penalty shall be due in connection with any prepayment made as a
result of any of the events described in clauses (i) or (ii) of
this Section 2.3.2(a).
(b)
Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of any Liquidation Event once
Borrower has knowledge of such event. Borrower shall be deemed to

Individual Property on the date on which a contract of sale for
such sale is entered into, and a foreclosure sale, on the date
notice of such foreclosure sale is given to Borrower or Mortgage
Borrower, and (ii) a refinancing of an Individual Property or the
Mortgage Loan, on the date on which a commitment for such
refinancing is entered into. The provisions of this Section 2.3.2

and other provisions regarding refinancing of the Mortgage Loan or
the Transfer of any Individual Property set forth in this
Agreement, and the other Loan Documents or the Mortgage Loan
Documents.

tendered by Borrower or otherwise recovered by Lender (including,
without limitation, through application of any Net Liquidation
Proceeds After Debt Service, other than Net Liquidation Proceeds
After Debt Service received in connection with a Casualty or
Condemnation of all or a portion of any Individual Property), such
tender or recovery shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment by

Prepayment Consideration, if any, and (ii) all accrued and unpaid
interest calculated at the Applicable Interest Rate on the amount
of principal being prepaid through and including the date of
prepayment and, if such prepayment occurs on a date which is not a

of principal being prepaid after the date of such prepayment to the

Borrower Entity, (ii) shall assume all the obligations of Mortgage
Borrower under the Mortgage Loan Agreement, the Mortgage Note and

become a party to the Mortgage Note and the other Mortgage Loan
Documents and shall be bound by the terms and provisions thereof as
if it had executed the Mortgage Note and the other Mortgage Loan
Documents and shall have the rights and obligations of Mortgage
Borrower thereunder) (individually, a “ Substitute
Property ” and collectively, the “ Substitute
Properties ”), provided that the following conditions
precedent are satisfied or, in Lender’s sole discretion,
waived:

substitution of such Substitute Property shall have been satisfied
in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents (as
independently determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion)
and (ii) all conditions to the release of such Individual Property
and substitution of such Substitute Property shall have been
satisfied in accordance with the terms of Section 2.9 of the

deed conveying all of such Mortgage Borrower Entity’s right,
title and interest in and to the Release Property to a Person other
than Mortgage Borrower or Mortgage Principal and (ii) a letter from
Mortgage Borrower countersigned by a title insurance company
acknowledging receipt of such deed and agreeing to record such deed
in the real estate records for the county in which the Release
Property is located.
(d)
Lender shall have received a current Appraisal of the Substitute
Property prepared not earlier than one (1) year prior to the
release and substitution showing an appraised value for the
Substitute Property equal to or greater than the appraised value of
the Release Property as of the Closing Date.
(e)
Intentionally Omitted.
(f)
If the Loan is part of a Securitization, Lender shall have received
confirmation in writing from the Rating Agencies to the effect that
such release and substitution will not result in a withdrawal,
qualification or downgrade of the respective ratings in effect
immediately prior to such release and substitution for the
Securities issued in connection with the Securitization that are
then outstanding. If the Loan is not part of a Securitization,
Lender shall have consented in writing to such release and
substitution, which consent shall be given in Lender’s
reasonable discretion applying the requirements of a prudent
institutional mortgage loan lender with respect to real estate
collateral of a size, scope and value substantially similar to that
of the Substitute Property.
(g)
No Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and
Borrower shall be in compliance in all material respects with all
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in each other
Loan Document on Borrower’s part to be observed or performed.

the foregoing, stating that the representations and warranties of
Borrower contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date
of the release and substitution with respect to Borrower, the
Properties and the Substitute Property and containing any other
representations and warranties with
45
respect to Borrower, the Properties, the
Substitute Property or the Loan as (i) Lender (applying the
requirements of a prudent institutional mortgage loan lender), if a
Securitization has not occurred, or (ii) the Rating Agencies, if a
Securitization has occurred, may require, unless such certificate
would be inaccurate, such certificate to be in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender (applying the requirements of a prudent
institutional mortgage loan lender) or the Rating Agencies, as
applicable.

If the Substitute Property shall be owned by an Affiliate of
Mortgage Borrower: (i) Borrower shall execute and deliver a pledge
agreement in substantially the same form as the Pledge Agreement in

to the UCC Insurance Policy delivered at the closing of the Loan;
and (iv) Borrower shall enter into such modifications to the other
Loan Documents as Lender may reasonably request in order to reflect
the substitution of the applicable Individual Property and the new
property owner/mortgage borrower. The amount of the Loan allocated
to the Substitute Property (such amount being hereinafter referred
to as the “ Substitute Allocated Loan Amount ”)
shall equal the Allocated Loan Amount of the related Release
Property; provided, however , that in the event the number
of Release Properties with respect to any substitution effected
pursuant to this Section 2.9 does not equal the number of
Substitute Properties, the Substitute Allocated Loan Amount for
each of such Substitute Properties shall be reasonably determined

Allocated Loan Amount for such Substitute Properties shall not
exceed the aggregate Allocated Loan Amount for such Released
Properties).
(i)

Property, certified to the title company and Lender and its
successors and assigns, in the same form and having the same

prepared by a professional land surveyor licensed in the State in
which the Substitute Property is located and acceptable to the
Rating Agencies in accordance with the 1999 Minimum Standard Detail
Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys. Such Survey shall
reflect the same legal description contained in the Mortgage Title
Insurance Policy relating to such Substitute Property and shall
include, among other things, a metes and bounds description of the
real property constituting part of such Substitute Property (unless
such real property has been satisfactorily designated by lot number
on a recorded plat). The surveyor’s seal shall be affixed to

conclude that the Substitute Property does not contain any
Hazardous Materials in contravention of any applicable Legal
Requirements in any material respect and is not subject to any
significant risk of contamination from any off site Hazardous

any material respect. If any such report discloses the presence of
any Hazardous Substance in contravention of any applicable Legal
Requirement in any material respect, or the material risk of
contamination from any off site Hazardous Substance in
contravention of any applicable Legal Requirement in any material
respect, the proposed substitution shall not be allowed without

the Loan, any such report discloses the presence of any Hazardous
Substance in contravention of any applicable Legal Requirement in
any material respect, or the risk of contamination from any off
site Hazardous Substance in contravention of any applicable Legal
Requirement in any material respect, the proposed substitution
shall not be allowed unless (i) such report shall include an
estimate of the cost of any related remediation required to be
undertaken by an environmental consultant reasonably selected by
Lender, (ii) the estimated cost of remediation does not exceed ten
percent (10%) of the Allocated Loan Amount for such Substitute
Property, and (iii) Borrower shall have caused Mortgage Borrower to
deposit with Mortgage Lender (A) cash, (B) a Letter of Credit, or

In the event that Mortgage Lender elects not to require such
deposit, Borrower shall deliver such deposit to Lender.

Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Lender (A)
updates or, if the Substitute Property is to be owned by an
Affiliate of Borrower, originals, in either case certified by
Borrower or such Affiliate, as applicable, of all organizational

respect to the Substitute Property pursuant to this Section are
duly authorized, executed and delivered by Borrower and that the
execution and delivery of such Loan Documents and the performance
by Borrower of its obligations thereunder will not cause a breach
of, or a default under, any agreement, document or instrument to
which Borrower is a party or by which it or its properties are
bound; and (C) an update of the Insolvency Opinion indicating that
the substitution does not affect the opinions set forth
therein.
