Lender or to such other location or account as Lender may specify to Borrower
from time to time, in Federal or other immediately available funds in lawful
money of the United States of America, not later than 2:00 PM, New York City
time, on each Payment Date. If any payment hereunder or under any of the other
Loan Documents becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such
payment shall not be payable until the next succeeding Business Day; provided,
however, if such next succeeding Business Day falls within the next calendar
month, such payment shall be due and payable on the immediately preceding
Business Day. If the date for any payments of principal is extended on account
of the foregoing or on account of operation of law or otherwise, interest
thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.
(c) Lender shall determine the LIBOR Rate as in effect from time to time on each
Interest Determination Date, and each such determination of the LIBOR Rate shall
be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.
(d) Payments made by Borrower under this Note shall be made free and clear of,
and without reduction for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp
or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or
withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed
by any Governmental Authority, excluding income and franchise taxes of the
United States of America or any political subdivision or taxing authority
thereof or therein (such non-excluded taxes being called “Additional Taxes”). If
any Additional Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to
Lender hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the amounts so
payable to Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Lender
(after payment of all Additional Taxes) interest or any such other amounts
payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Note.
(e) Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.1(e), Borrower shall have one
(1) option to extend the term of the Loan from the original Maturity Date
through October 12, 2011 (the “Extended Maturity Date”) (the “Extension Option”,
and the term extended pursuant thereto, the “Extension Term”); provided that,
with respect to the exercise of each Extension Option (i) Lender has received
written notice not more than one hundred twenty (120) days but not less than
thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date that Borrower desires to extend the
Maturity Date or the extended Maturity Date, as the case may be (the “Maturity
Date Notice”) which shall be accompanied by a payment of $100,000, (ii) no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date of the Maturity Date
Notice or the date the applicable Extension Term would commence, and
(iii) Borrower has delivered proof, reasonably satisfactory to

 

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Lender, that (A) the Debt Service Coverage for the two (2) full fiscal quarters
of the Borrower immediately preceding the Payment Date which is immediately
prior to the Maturity Date is 1.55 to 1.00 or greater and (B) either the
existing Rate Cap Agreement has been extended or a replacement Rate Cap
Agreement has been obtained in form and substance substantially similar to the
Rate Cap Agreement delivered on the Closing Date and issued by a cap provider
having a long-term unsecured debt rating of “AA” (or its equivalent) by each
Rating Agency with a LIBOR Rate strike price of seven percent (7.0%) per annum,
and a term expiring no earlier than the Extended Maturity Date (and if Lender is
not the named beneficiary thereunder, the same has been pledged to Lender).
Provided that all of the foregoing conditions have been satisfied, as reasonably
determined by Lender, following the giving of the Maturity Date Notice, the term
“Maturity Date” when used herein and in the other Loan Documents shall mean the
date to which the Maturity Date has been extended as if such date was the
original Maturity Date set forth herein. Simultaneously with the commencement of
the Extension Term, Borrower shall pay to Lender an extension fee (the
“Extension Fee”) in the amount of 0.25% of the outstanding principal balance of
the Loan as of the date of the applicable Maturity Date Notice less any sums
previously paid to Lender pursuant to clause (i) above (it being acknowledged
that if the sums paid to Lender pursuant to clause (i) above are in excess of
those required to be paid pursuant to this sentence, Lender shall reimburse such
excess amount to Borrower). In the event that Lender determines that the
conditions set forth in this subsection (e) have not been satisfied, the
exercise of the Extension Option shall be of no further force or effect and any
extension fee previously paid to Lender in connection with the subject extension
request, less any actual costs incurred by Lender in connection with its review
of Borrower’s request for an extension of the Maturity Date, shall be credited
towards the outstanding principal balance of the Loan at Maturity. All
reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with each request for, and,
if applicable, each extension of the Maturity Date, including without
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Lender and any sums incurred
in connection with the extension or replacement of the Rate Cap Agreement (and,
if applicable, the pledging of same to Lender) shall be at the sole cost and
expense of Borrower and shall either be paid by Borrower directly or on demand
to Lender.
Section 2.2. Application of Payments.
(a) Each and every payment (a “Payment”) made by Borrower to Lender in
accordance with the terms of this Note and/or the terms of any one or more of
the other Loan Documents and all other proceeds received by Lender with respect
to the Debt, shall be applied as follows:
(1) Payments other than Unscheduled Payments shall be applied (i) first, to all
interest (other than Default Rate Interest) which shall be due and payable with
respect to the Loan Amount pursuant to the terms hereof as of the date the
Payment is received (including any Interest Shortfalls and interest thereon to
the extent permitted by applicable law), (ii) second, to all Late Charges,
Default Rate Interest or other premiums and other sums payable hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents (other than those sums included in clause (i) of
this Section 2.2(a)(1)) in such order and priority as determined by Lender in
its sole discretion and (iii) on the Maturity Date, to the Loan Amount until the
Loan Amount has been paid in full.

 

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(2) Unscheduled Payments shall be applied at the end of the Interest Accrual
Period in which such Unscheduled Payments are received as a principal prepayment
of the Loan Amount to amortize the Loan Amount.
(b) To the extent that Borrower makes a Payment or Lender receives any Payment
or proceeds for Borrower’s benefit, which are subsequently invalidated, declared
to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a
trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then, to such extent, the
obligations of Borrower hereunder intended to be satisfied shall be revived and
continue as if such Payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.
Section 2.3. Prepayments.
The Debt may not be prepaid, in whole or in part, except as set forth in
Article XV of the Security Instrument.
Section 2.4. Indemnity.
Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender and to hold it harmless from any cost, loss
or expense which Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) Borrower
making a payment or prepayment of principal on the Loan on a day which is not a
Payment Date with respect thereto, (b) default by Borrower in making any
prepayment after Borrower has given a notice of prepayment, and (c) any
acceleration of the maturity of the Loan by Lender in accordance with the terms
of this Note and the other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, any
such reasonable cost, loss or expense arising in liquidating the Loan and from
interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order
to maintain the Loan hereunder.
Section 2.5. Increased Cost and Reduced Return.
(a) If, on or after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or
regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any
change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental
Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive
(whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority,
central bank or comparable agency, or any such Governmental Authority, central
bank or comparable agency shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve
(including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board),
special deposit, insurance assessment or similar requirement against assets of,
deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, Lender or shall
impose on Lender or on the London interbank market any other condition affecting
the Loan (excluding, in each case, with respect to any such requirement
reflected in the then effective LIBOR Rate), and the result of any of the
foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of maintaining the Loan at the
Interest Rate (based upon the LIBOR Rate), or to reduce the amount of any sum
received or receivable by Lender under this Note with respect thereto, by an
amount deemed by Lender (acting reasonably) to be material, then, within ten
(10) days after written demand by Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such increased cost
or reduction suffered with respect to the Loan.

 

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(b) If Lender shall have reasonably determined in good faith that, after the
date hereof, the adoption of any Capital Adequacy Rule has or would have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of Lender (or its Parent) as a
consequence of Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender
(or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption of such Capital
Adequacy Rule (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital
adequacy) by an amount deemed by Lender (acting reasonably) to be material, then
from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after written demand by Lender,
Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate Lender (or its Parent) for such reduction suffered with respect to
the Loan.
(c) By its acceptance of this Note, Lender agrees, for itself and its successors
and assigns, that it will promptly notify Borrower of any event of which it has
knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle Lender to
compensation pursuant to this Section 2.5. By acceptance of this Note, Lender
agrees, for itself and its successors and assigns, that in connection with
claiming compensation under either Section 2.5(a) or 2.5(b), Lender shall
deliver to Borrower a certificate which shall set forth in reasonable detail the
basis for and the calculation of such amounts, (which at a minimum shall set
forth at least the same amount of detail in respect of the calculation of such
amount as Lender provides in similar circumstances to other similarly situated
borrowers from Lender), and (ii) in the case of a certificate delivered in
respect of amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.5(b) include a statement by
Lender that it has allocated to the Loan a proportionately equal amount of any
reduction of the rate of return on Lender’s capital due to a Capital Adequacy
Rule as it has allocated to each of its other outstanding loans that are
affected similarly by such Capital Adequacy Rule. Any certificate delivered
pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error.
(d) By acceptance of this Note, Lender agrees, for itself and its successors and
assigns, that Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender pursuant
to this Section 2.5 for any increased costs or reductions (i) incurred more than
sixty (60) days prior to the date such Lender notifies Borrower of the event
which entitles Lender to compensation pursuant to Section 2.5 and/or (ii) unless
such Lender is also seeking compensation from other similarly situated borrowers
as well.
Section 2.6. Deposits Unavailable.
In the event, and on each occasion, that (a) Lender shall have determined that
Dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Loan are not generally available
to Lender in the London interbank market, for such periods and amounts then
outstanding hereunder or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the
LIBOR Rate, or (b) Lender determines that the rate at which such Dollar deposits
are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of
maintaining the Loan at the Interest Rate (based upon the LIBOR Rate) during
such month, Lender shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written notice
of such determination to Borrower. In the event of any such determination, until
the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, the Loan shall
bear interest at the interest rate applicable to the immediately preceding
Interest Accrual Period.

 

9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Section 2.7. Illegality.
If, on or after the date of this Note, the adoption of any applicable law, rule
or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any
change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental
Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive
(whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or
comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for Lender to maintain
the Loan at the Interest Rate (based upon the LIBOR Rate), Lender shall
forthwith give notice thereof to Borrower. If Lender shall determine that it may
not lawfully continue to maintain the Loan at the Interest Rate (based upon the
LIBOR Rate) to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, the Loan shall bear
interest at the interest rate applicable to the immediately preceding Interest
Accrual Period.
SECTION 3. DEFAULTS
Section 3.1. Events of Default.
This Note is secured by, among other things, the Security Instrument which
specifies various Events of Default, upon the happening of which all or portions
of the sums owing under this Note may be declared immediately due and payable as
more specifically provided therein. Each Event of Default under the Security
Instrument or any one or more of the other Loan Documents shall be an Event of
Default hereunder.
Section 3.2. Remedies.
If an Event of Default shall occur and shall be continuing hereunder or under
any other Loan Document, interest on the Principal Amount and, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, all accrued but unpaid interest on the Principal
Amount shall, commencing on the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default,
at the option of Lender, immediately and without notice to Borrower, accrue
interest at the Default Rate until such Event of Default is cured or if not
cured or such cure is not accepted by Lender, until the repayment of the Debt.
The foregoing provision shall not be construed as a waiver by Lender of its
right to pursue any other remedies available to it under the Security
Instrument, or any other Loan Document, nor shall it be construed to limit in
any way the application of the Default Rate.
SECTION 4. EXCULPATION
Section 4.1. Exculpation.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other
Loan Documents, the obligations of Borrower hereunder shall be non-recourse
except with respect to the Property and as otherwise provided in Section 18.32
of the Security Instrument, the terms of which are incorporated herein by
reference as if fully set forth herein.

 

10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

SECTION 5. MISCELLANEOUS
Section 5.1. Further Assurances.
Borrower shall execute and acknowledge (or cause to be executed and
acknowledged) and deliver to Lender all documents, and take all actions,
required by Lender from time to time to confirm the rights created or now or
hereafter intended to be created under this Note and the other Loan Documents,
to protect and further the validity, priority and enforceability of this Note
and the other Loan Documents, to subject to the Loan Documents any property of
Borrower intended by the terms of any one or more of the Loan Documents to be
encumbered by the Loan Documents, or otherwise carry out the purposes of the
Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereunder; provided, however,
that no such further actions, assurances and confirmations shall increase
Borrower’s obligations, or decrease Borrower’s rights, under this Note or any of
the Loan Documents.
Section 5.2. Modification, Waiver in Writing.
No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver (a
“Modification”) of any provision of this Note, the Security Instrument or any
one or more of the other Loan Documents, nor consent to any departure by
Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in
a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the
purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no
notice to, or demand on, Borrower shall entitle Borrower to any other or future
notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. Lender does not
hereby agree to, nor does Lender hereby commit itself to, enter into any
Modification. However, in the event Lender does ever agree to a Modification,
the making and the conditions for the making of such Modification shall only be
upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Security Instrument and such
Modification.
Section 5.3. Costs of Collection.
Borrower agrees to pay all costs and expenses of collection incurred by Lender,
in addition to principal, interest and late or delinquency charges (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) and including
all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the pursuit by Lender of any
of its rights or remedies referred to in Section 3 hereof or its rights or
remedies referred to in any of the Loan Documents or the protection of or
realization of collateral or in connection with any of Lender’s collection
efforts, whether or not suit on this Note, on any of the other Loan Documents or
any foreclosure proceeding is filed, and all such costs and expenses shall be
payable on demand, together with interest thereon from the date due until the
date paid in full at the Default Rate thereon, and also shall be secured by the
Security Instrument and all other collateral at any time held by Lender as
security for Borrower’s obligations to Lender.

 

11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Section 5.4. Maximum Amount.
(a) It is the intention of Borrower and Lender to conform strictly to the usury
and similar laws relating to interest and the collection of other charges from
time to time in force, and all agreements between Borrower and Lender, whether
now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are hereby
expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by
acceleration of maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to
be paid in the aggregate to Lender as interest or other charges hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents or in any other security agreement given to
secure the Debt, or in any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to
the Debt, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable usury or such
other laws (the “Maximum Amount”). If under any circumstances whatsoever
fulfillment of any provision hereof, or any of the other Loan Documents, at the
time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the
Maximum Amount, then ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced
to the Maximum Amount. For the purposes of calculating the actual amount of
interest or other charges paid and/or payable hereunder, in respect of laws
pertaining to usury or such other laws, all charges and other sums paid or
agreed to be paid hereunder to the holder hereof for the use, forbearance or
detention of the Debt, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread from
the date of disbursement of the proceeds of this Note until payment in full of
all of the Debt, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the Debt is
uniform through the term hereof. The terms and provisions of this Section 5.4
shall control and supersede every other provision of all agreements between
Borrower or any endorser and Lender.
(b) If under any circumstances Lender shall ever receive an amount which would
exceed the Maximum Amount, such amount shall be deemed a payment in reduction of
the Loan Amount owing hereunder and any other obligation of Borrower in favor of
Lender, and shall be so applied in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof, or if
such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of the Loan Amount and any
other obligation of Borrower in favor of Lender, the excess shall be deemed to
have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to Borrower.
Section 5.5. Waivers.
Borrower hereby expressly and unconditionally waives presentment, demand,
protest, notice of protest or notice of any kind, including, without limitation,
any notice of intention to accelerate and notice of acceleration, except as
expressly provided herein, and in connection with any suit, action or proceeding
brought by Lender on this Note, any and every right it may have to (a) a trial
by jury, (b) interpose any counterclaim therein (other than a counterclaim which
can only be asserted in the suit, action or proceeding brought by Lender on this
Note and cannot be maintained in a separate action) and (c) have the same
consolidated with any other or separate suit, action or proceeding.
Section 5.6. Governing Law.
This Note and the obligations arising hereunder shall be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York applicable to
contracts made and performed in such State and any applicable law of the United
States of America.

Section 5.7. Headings.
The Section headings in this Note are included herein for convenience of
reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Note for any other
purpose.
Section 5.8. Assignment.
Lender shall have the right to transfer, sell and assign this Note in accordance
with Section 17.01 of the Security Instrument. All references to “Lender”
hereunder shall be deemed to include the assigns of the Lender.
Section 5.9. Severability.
Wherever possible, each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such
manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision
of this Note 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 Note.
Section 5.10. Joint and Several.
If Borrower consists of more than one Person or party, the obligations and
liabilities of each such Person or party hereunder shall be joint and several.
Section 5.11. Substitute Note.
This Note is “Substitute Note A-2” executed and delivered pursuant to the
Severance Agreement. The principal indebtedness evidenced hereby is a portion of
the principal indebtedness evidenced by the Original Note in the original
principal sum of $217,000,000 made by Borrower to Lender.
