Agent is hereby granted and assigned by Assignor the right to enter the Property for the purpose of enforcing its interest in the Leases and the Rents, this Assignment constituting a present and unconditional assignment of the Leases and Rents. Assignor shall authorize and direct, and does hereby authorize and direct, each and every present and future tenant under the Leases to pay all Rents directly to Agent upon receipt of written demand from Agent. It is the intent of Assignor and Agent hereunder that the Rents hereby absolutely assigned are no longer, during the term of this Assignment, property of Assignor or property of any estate of Assignor as defined by 11 U.S.C. § 541, and shall not constitute collateral, cash or otherwise, of Assignor. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Paragraph 1, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Assignor shall have the right to act as lessor under the Leases to the extent not prohibited by the Credit Agreement.

2. License . Although this Assignment constitutes a present assignment of all Rents, so long as there shall exist no Event of Default under the Instrument or the Credit Agreement, Assignor shall have a license (revocable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default) to collect and receive the Rents as trustee for the benefit of Agent, and apply the Rents so collected to the Secured Obligations, to the extent then due and payable, then to the payment of normal and customary operating expenses for the Property which are then due and payable, with the balance, so long as no Event of Default has occurred, to the account of Assignor. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the license granted in this Paragraph 2 shall automatically, without further act by Agent, cease and terminate, and thereafter, any Rents received by Assignor shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be immediately remitted by Assignor to, Agent.

3. Remedies of Agent . If an Event of Default under the Instrument or the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent may collect and receive all the Rents, including those past due as well as those accruing thereafter, and, Assignor hereby authorizes Agent or Agent’s agents to collect the Rents and hereby directs such tenants, lessees and licensees of the Property to pay the Rents to Agent or Agent’s agents. Assignor agrees that each and every tenant, lessee and licensee of the Property may pay, and hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs each and every tenant, lessee and licensee of the Property to pay, the Rents to Agent or Agent’s agents on Agent’s written demand therefor (which demand may be made by Agent at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default) without any obligation on the part of said tenant, lessee or licensee to inquire as to the existence of an Event of Default and notwithstanding any notice or claim of Assignor to the contrary, and Assignor agrees that Assignor shall have no right or claim against said tenant, lessee or licensee for or by reason of any Rents paid to Agent following receipt of such written demand. Anything in this Paragraph 3 to the contrary notwithstanding, Agent shall not be obligated to discharge or perform the duties of a landlord or lessor to any tenant or other occupant or incur any liability as a result of the

exercise by Agent of its rights under this Assignment, and Agent shall be liable to account only for the rents, income, issues, profits and revenues actually received by Agent. In connection with any action taken by the Agent pursuant to this Paragraph 3, the Agent shall not be liable for any loss sustained by Assignor resulting from any act or omission of the Agent, including a loss arising from the ordinary negligence of the Agent, unless such loss is caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods, nor shall the Agent be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of Assignor. Assignor hereby assents to, ratifies and confirms any and all actions of the Agent with respect to the Property taken under this Paragraph 3.

4. No Liability of Agent . The Agent is fully authorized to receive and receipt for said revenues and proceeds; to endorse and cash any and all checks and drafts payable to the order of Assignor or the Agent for the account of Assignor received from or in connection with said revenues or proceeds and apply the proceeds thereof to the payment of the Secured Obligations, when received, regardless of the maturity of any of the Loans or the Hedge Obligations, or any installment thereof; and to execute transfer and division orders in the name of Assignor, or otherwise, with warranties binding Assignor. The Agent shall not be liable for any delay, neglect, or failure to effect collection of any proceeds or to take any other action in connection therewith or hereunder; but shall have the right, at its election, in the name of Assignor or otherwise, to prosecute and defend any and all actions or legal proceedings deemed advisable by the Agent in order to collect such funds and to protect the interests of the Agent and/or Assignor, with all costs, expenses and reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection therewith being paid by Assignor.

5. Other Remedies and Non-Waiver . No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to Agent by this Assignment is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission of Agent or of any Lender to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon any default shall exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default, or acquiescence therein; and every right, power and remedy given by this Assignment to Agent may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Agent. No consent or waiver, expressed or implied, by Agent to or of any breach or default by Assignor in the performance of the obligations thereof hereunder shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance of the same or any other obligations of Assignor hereunder. Failure on the part of Agent to complain of any act or failure to act or to declare an Event of Default under the Instrument, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by Agent of its rights hereunder or impair any rights, powers or remedies of Agent consequent on any breach or default by Assignor. Nothing contained in this Assignment and no act done or omitted by Agent pursuant to the power and rights granted to Agent hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver by Agent of its rights and remedies under the other Loan Documents and this Assignment is made and accepted without prejudice to any of the rights and remedies possessed by Agent under the terms thereof. The right of the Agent to collect the Rents and to enforce any other security thereof held by it may be exercised by Agent either prior to simultaneously with or subsequent to any action taken by it hereunder.

8. No Oral Change . This Assignment may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally, or by any act or failure to act on the part of Assignor or Agent, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom the enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.

15. Indemnification . Assignor shall and does hereby agree to indemnify and to hold Agent, the Lenders and the holders of the Hedge Obligations harmless for, from and against any and all costs, expenses, claims, demands, liability, loss or damage (including all costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees incurred in the defense thereof) asserted against, imposed on or incurred by Agent, the Lenders or holders of the Hedge Obligations in connection with or as a result of this Assignment or the exercise of any rights or remedies under this Assignment or under any of the Leases or by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings of Agent, Lenders or holders of the Hedge Obligations to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Leases; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed to obligate Assignor to indemnify and hold Agent, the Lenders or the holders of the Hedge Obligations harmless for, from and against any and all costs, expenses, claims, demands, liability, loss or damage asserted against, imposed on or incurred by Agent, the Lenders or the holders of the Hedge Obligations by reason of such Person’s willful misconduct or gross negligence if a judgment is entered against Agent, a Lender or a holder of a Hedge Obligation by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods.

12


18. No Merger of Estates . So long as any of the indebtedness secured hereby and by the Loan Documents shall remain unpaid and the obligation of the Lenders to make additional Loans or issue Letters of Credit shall continue, unless the Agent shall otherwise consent in writing, the fee title and the leasehold estate on the Property as hereinbefore described shall not merge, but shall always be kept separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of said estate either in the Assignor or in any tenant or in a third party by purchase or otherwise.

Agent may assign to any subsequent holder of the Note or the Instrument, or to any person acquiring title to the Property, all of Agent’s right, title and interest in any of the Leases and rents, issues, income and profits from the Property.
