FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, LVP OAKVIEW STRIP CENTER LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ( Borrower ”), having an address c/o The Lightstone Group, 326 Third Street, Lakewood, New Jersey 08701, jointly and severally promises to pay to the order of WACHOVIA BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association (together with its successors and assigns, “ Lender ”), at the office of Lender at Commercial Real Estate Services, 8739 Research Drive URP - 4, NC 1075, Charlotte, North Carolina 28262, or at such other place as Lender may designate to Borrower in writing from time to time, the principal sum of TWENTY-SEVEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($27,500,000.00), together with interest on so much thereof as is from time to time outstanding and unpaid, from the date of the advance of the principal evidenced hereby, at the rate of five and forty-nine hundredths percent (5.49%) (the “ Note Rate ”), together with all other amounts due hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (as defined herein), in lawful money of the United States of America, which shall at the time of payment be legal tender in payment of all debts and dues, public and private.

Section 1.1   Computation of Interest . Interest shall be computed hereunder based on a 360-day year and based on the actual number of days elapsed for any period in which interest is being calculated, including, without limitation, the Interest Only Period (hereinafter defined), as more particularly set forth on Schedule A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. Interest shall accrue from the date on which funds are advanced hereunder (regardless of the time of day) through and including the day on which funds are credited pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof.

Section 1.2   Payment of Principal and Interest . Payments in federal funds immediately available at the place designated for payment received by Lender prior to 2:00 p.m. eastern time on a day on which Lender is open for business at said place of payment shall be credited prior to close of business, while other payments, at the option of Lender, may not be credited until immediately available to Lender in federal funds at the place designated for payment prior to 2:00 p.m. eastern time on the next day on which Lender is open for business. A payment in interest only, based on the payments set forth on Schedule A annexed hereto, shall be made beginning on February 11, 2007 (the "First Payment Date"), and continuing on the eleventh day of each and every calendar month thereafter (each, an "Interest Only Payment Date") through and including January 11, 2012 (each, an "Interest Only Payment") (such period being referred to herein as the "Interest Only Period"). Commencing on February 11, 2012 and continuing thereafter on the eleventh day of each and every calendar month thereafter through and including December 11, 2016 (each, together with each Interest Only Payment Date is hereinafter collectively a "Payment Date"), principal and interest shall be payable in equal consecutive monthly installments of $155,969.48 each. On January 11, 2017 (the "Maturity Date"), the entire outstanding principal balance hereof, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full.

Section 1.3   Application of Payments . So long as no Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) exists hereunder or under any other Loan Document (as hereinafter defined), each such monthly installment shall be applied, first, to any amounts hereafter advanced by Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, second, to any late fees and other amounts payable to Lender, third, to the payment of accrued interest and last to reduction of principal.

Section 1.4   Payment of “Short Interest” . If the advance of the principal amount evidenced by this Note is made on a date other than a Payment Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender contemporaneously with the execution hereof interest at the Note Rate for a period from the date hereof through and including the tenth (10 ^th ) day of either (x) this month, in the event that the date hereof is on or prior to the 11th of the month, and (y) the immediately succeeding month, in the event that the date hereof is after the 11 ^th of the month.

Section 1.5   Prepayment; Defeasance .

(a)   This Note may not be prepaid, in whole or in part (except as otherwise specifically provided herein), at any time prior to the Payment Date occurring two (2) Payment Dates immediately prior to the Maturity Date (the “ Lockout Expiration Date ”). In the event that Borrower wishes to have the Property (as defined in the Security Instrument) released from the lien of the Security Instrument (as hereinafter defined) prior to the Lockout Expiration Date, Borrower’s sole option shall be a Defeasance (as hereinafter defined) upon satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth in Section 1.5(d) hereof. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Note or any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, this Note may be prepaid in whole but not in part without premium or penalty on any Payment Date (subject to the proviso below) occurring from and after the Lockout Expiration Date provided (i) written notice of such prepayment is received by Lender not more than ninety (90) days and not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date of such prepayment, and (ii) such prepayment is accompanied by all interest accrued hereunder through the date of such prepayment and all other sums due hereunder or under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that if such prepayment is received on a day that is not a Payment Date, Borrower shall pay interest on the outstanding principal balance hereof immediately preceding such prepayment at the Note Rate for a period from the date of such payment through and including the tenth (10th) day of either (x) the month in which the prepayment occurs if such payment is made prior to the 11th day of such month, and (y) the immediately succeeding month in which the prepayment occurs if such payment is made after the 11th day of such month. If, upon any such permitted prepayment on any Payment Date occurring on or after the Lockout Expiration Date, the aforesaid prior written notice has not been timely received by Lender, there shall be due a prepayment fee equal to the lesser of (i) thirty (30) days’ interest computed at the Note Rate on the outstanding principal balance of this Note so prepaid and (ii) interest computed at the Note Rate on the outstanding principal balance of this Note so prepaid that would have been payable for the period from, and including, the date of prepayment through the Maturity Date, as though such prepayment had not occurred.

(b)   If, prior to the Lockout Expiration Date, the indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall have been declared due and payable by Lender pursuant to Article II hereof or the provisions of any other Loan Document due to an Event of Default by Borrower, then, in addition to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note being immediately due and payable, there shall also then be immediately due and payable a prepayment fee in an amount equal to the Yield Maintenance Premium (as hereinafter defined) based on the entire indebtedness on the date of such acceleration. In addition to the amounts described in the preceding sentence, in the event of any such acceleration or tender of payment of such indebtedness occurs or is made on or prior to the first (1st) anniversary of the date of this Note, there shall also then be immediately due and payable an additional prepayment fee of three percent (3%) of the principal balance of this Note. The term “ Yield Maintenance Premium ” shall mean an amount equal to the greater of (A) two percent (2.0%) of the principal amount being prepaid, and (B) the present value of a series of payments each equal to the Payment Differential (as hereinafter defined) and payable on each Payment Date over the remaining original term of this Note and on the Maturity Date, discounted at the Reinvestment Yield (as hereinafter defined) for the number of months remaining as of the date of such prepayment to each such Payment Date and the Maturity Date. The term “ Payment Differential ” shall mean an amount equal to (i) the Note Rate less the Reinvestment Yield, divided by (ii) twelve (12) and multiplied by (iii) the principal sum outstanding under this Note after application of the constant monthly payment due under this Note on the date of such prepayment, provided that the Payment Differential shall in no event be less than zero. The term “ Reinvestment Yield ” shall mean an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the yield on the U.S. Treasury issue (primary issue) with a maturity date closest to the Maturity Date, or (ii) the yield on the U.S. Treasury issue (primary issue) with a term equal to the remaining average life of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, with each such yield being based on the bid price for such issue as published in the Wall Street Journal on the date that is fourteen (14) days prior to the date of such prepayment (or, if such bid price is not published on that date, the next preceding date on which such bid price is so published) and converted to a monthly compounded nominal yield. In the event that any prepayment fee is due hereunder, Lender shall deliver to Borrower a statement setting forth the amount and determination of the prepayment fee, and, provided that Lender shall have in good faith applied the formula described above, Borrower shall not have the right to challenge the calculation or the method of calculation set forth in any such statement in the absence of manifest error, which calculation may be made by Lender on any day during the fifteen (15) day period preceding the date of such prepayment. Lender shall not be obligated or required to have actually reinvested the prepaid principal balance at the Reinvestment Yield or otherwise as a condition to receiving the prepayment fee.

(c)   Partial prepayments of this Note shall not be permitted, except for partial prepayments resulting from Lender’s election to apply insurance or condemnation proceeds to reduce the outstanding principal balance of this Note as provided in the Security Instrument, in which event no prepayment fee or premium shall be due unless, at the time of either Lender’s receipt of such proceeds or the application of such proceeds to the outstanding principal balance of this Note, an Event of Default exists, which Event of Default is unrelated to the applicable casualty or condemnation, in which event the applicable prepayment fee or premium shall be due and payable based upon the amount of the prepayment. No notice of prepayment shall be required under the circumstances specified in the preceding sentence. No principal amount repaid may be reborrowed. Any such partial prepayments of principal shall be applied to the unpaid principal balance evidenced hereby but such application shall not reduce the amount of the fixed monthly installments required to be paid pursuant to Section 1.2 above. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section, the prepayment fees provided above shall be due, to the extent permitted by applicable law, under any and all circumstances where all or any portion of this Note is paid prior to the Maturity Date, whether such prepayment is voluntary or involuntary, including, without limitation, if such prepayment results from Lender’s exercise of its rights upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and acceleration of the Maturity Date of this Note (irrespective of whether foreclosure proceedings have been commenced), and shall be in addition to any other sums due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. No tender of a prepayment of this Note with respect to which a prepayment fee is due shall be effective unless such prepayment is accompanied by the applicable prepayment fee.

(d)   i) On any Payment Date on or after the earlier to occur of (x) three (3) years following the first Payment Date hereunder, and (y) the day immediately following the date which is two (2) years after the “startup day,” within the meaning of Section 860G(a) (9) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time or any successor statute (the “ Code ”), of a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code (a “ REMIC Trust ”), that holds this Note, and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, at Borrower’s option, Lender shall cause the release of the Property from the lien of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents (a “ Defeasance ”) upon the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(A)   Borrower shall give not more than ninety (90) days’ or less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender specifying the date Borrower intends for the Defeasance to be consummated (the “ Release Date ”), which date shall be a Payment Date.

(B)   All accrued and unpaid interest and all other sums due under this Note and under the other Loan Documents up to and including the Release Date shall be paid in full on or prior to the Release Date.

(C)   Borrower shall deliver to Lender on or prior to the Release Date:

(1)   a sum of money in immediately available funds (the “ Defeasance Deposit ”) which shall be sufficient to enable Lender to purchase, through means and sources customarily employed and available to Lender, or at the election of Borrower to enable a third party defeasance company selected by Borrower and reasonably acceptable to Lender to purchase on behalf of Lender, for the account of Borrower, (x) direct, non-callable, fixed rate obligations of the United States of America or (y) non-callable, fixed rate obligations, other than U.S. Treasury Obligations, that are “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, that provide for payments prior, but as close as possible, to all successive monthly Payment Dates occurring after the Release Date and to the Lockout Expiration Date, with each such payment being equal to or greater than the amount of the corresponding installment of principal and/or interest required to be paid under this Note (including, but not limited to, the scheduled outstanding principal balance of the Loan due on the Maturity Date based upon payments of principal and interest through the Lockout Expiration Date) for the balance of the term hereof (the “ Defeasance Collateral ”), each of which shall be duly endorsed by the holder thereof as directed by Lender or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, such instruments as may be required by the depository institution holding such securities or the issuer thereof, as the case may be, to effectuate book-entry transfers and pledges through the book-entry facilities of such institution) in order to perfect upon the delivery of the D
