pursuant to a Loan Agreement dated December 17, 1997 by and between Original
Lender and Borrower, as amended by that certain Amendment to Loan Agreement
dated March 26, 1998 (as amended, the "Loan Agreement"). The Mortgage Loan is
evidenced by a Promissory Note dated December 17, 1997, from Borrower and
payable to Original Lender (the "Note").

     B. The Mortgage Loan and Note are secured by, among other things, that
certain Mortgage, Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing
dated December 17, 1997 from Borrower to Original Lender recorded January 7,
1998 in Official Records Book 8861, Page 0466 for Hillsborough County, Florida
and that certain Assignment of Leases and Rents, dated December 17, 1997 and
recorded January 7, 1998 in Official Records Book 8861, Page 0527 for
Hillsborough County, Florida (together, the "Security Instrument") which grants
to Original Lender, among other things, a lien on the real and personal property
described in said Security Instrument (the "Mortgaged Property"). The Mortgage
Loan is further evidenced or secured by various other documents executed by
Borrower in favor of Original Lender (together with the Note, the Loan Agreement
and Security Instrument, the "Mortgage Loan Documents").

     C. Lender is the current holder of the Note and the other Mortgage Loan
Documents.

     D. Pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Documents, Borrower has directed Lender to
release the Mortgaged Property from the liens and security interests of the

given by Borrower as security for the Mortgage Loan upon Borrower's defeasance
of the Mortgage Loan (the "Defeasance").

     E. Borrower is the legal and beneficial owner of the Securities (as
hereinafter defined). Pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Documents, and as a
condition precedent to Lender's obligation to release the Mortgaged Property
from the liens and security interests of the Security Instrument, Borrower has

     F. In connection with the Pledge Agreement, Borrower, Lender, Intermediary,
and Servicer, have entered into the Defeasance Account Agreement of even date
herewith (the "Account Agreement"), pursuant to which Intermediary has

Successor Borrower in the Pledged Collateral.

     G. Pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Documents, Borrower is required or
permitted to transfer and assign all of its obligations, rights and duties under

Agreement), together with its right, title and interest in the Pledged
Collateral, to a successor entity established or designated in accordance with
the Mortgage Loan Documents.

     H. Successor Borrower has been established or designated as a Single
Purpose Entity (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) that will assume Borrower's
rights and obligations under the Defeasance Documents.

from the lien of the Security Instrument and the other Mortgage Loan Documents,
(ii) transfer and assign its rights and obligations under the Note and the other
Defeasance Documents to Successor Borrower, and (iii) obtain a release of the

Borrower desires to assume Borrower's rights and obligations under the Note and
the Defeasance Documents to the extent provided herein, and acquire Borrower's
right, title and interest in and to the Pledged Collateral.

     (b) Except as set forth in Section 3(c) below, Lender shall have no
recourse against, and Lender shall not enforce any monetary judgment with
respect to the Secured Obligations against, assets of Successor Borrower other

     (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3(b) above, Successor

          (i) any representation, warranty or certification made by or on behalf
     of Successor Borrower for the benefit of Lender in any of the Defeasance
     Documents (or in any modification or supplement thereto), or in any
     certificate, report, financial statement or other item furnished to Lender

     through (xii) of Section 9(a) of the Pledge Agreement shall occur as a
     result of actions of Successor Borrower or circumstances relating to
     Successor Borrower; or

          (v) Successor Borrower's failure to immediately deposit into the
     Pledged Collateral Account an amount sufficient to pay any shortfall if, at
     any time, funds available in the Pledged Collateral Account (without taking
     into account reinvestment income) are insufficient to satisfy all
     obligations then due under the Note or under any of the other Defeasance
     Documents, including payment of the Mortgage Loan in full on the Optional
     Prepayment Date, other than any insufficiency resulting from the failure of
     an Obligor to make timely payments with respect to the Securities.


                                       4
<PAGE>

     (d) Successor Borrower's assumption of the obligations of Borrower under
the Defeasance Documents as set forth above is limited to those obligations
arising on and after the date hereof, except that Successor Borrower expressly
assumes (i) liability under the Note for unpaid principal and interest accruing
on the Mortgage Loan from and after the first day of the interest accrual period
in which the Defeasance occurs, which amount shall be deposited by Borrower in
the Pledged Collateral Account on or before the date hereof and paid in
accordance with the provisions of the Account Agreement from the Pledged
Collateral Account, and (ii) any liability that may arise if the Securities are
insufficient to make timely payments in accordance with the Account Agreement
(other than any insufficiency resulting from the failure of an Obligor to make
timely payments with respect to the Securities).

     (e) On or before June 30th of each calendar year during the term of the
Mortgage Loan, and within thirty (30) days after written request from Lender,
Successor Borrower shall deliver to Lender a certification signed by an officer
or manager of Successor Borrower, certifying that such Person is familiar with
the activities and operations of Successor Borrower and Successor Borrower's
affiliates and all transactions entered into by Successor Borrower during the
preceding twelve months, and that, to such Person's knowledge, Successor
Borrower has (i) conducted itself as a Single Purpose Entity during such period,
(ii) filed all tax returns required to be filed during such period, and (ii)
paid all taxes due and payable during such period. If requested by Lender, each
such certification shall be accompanied by an original certificate of existence
or good standing issued by the Secretary of State of the Successor Borrower
Organization State dated not more than thirty (30) days prior to the date of
such certification.

     (f) In addition to the Lender's rights under the Mortgage Loan Documents,
Successor Borrower hereby grants to Lender and Servicer a power of attorney to
file any franchise or other administrative filings that may be required to
maintain Successor Borrower's good standing and legal existence in the event
Successor Borrower fails to do so (and such failure continues for 30 days after
Successor Borrower's receipt of written notice of such failure). The foregoing
grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such
appointment shall be irrevocable for the term of this Agreement. Any and all
losses, expenses and costs of any nature or kind whatsoever that may be paid or
incurred by the Lender or Servicer as a result of the Successor Borrower's
failure to maintain its good standing and legal existence are specifically
included within the Secured Obligations for which the Securities and any
proceeds thereof are pledged.

     (g) In addition to any other remedies that the Lender may have under the
Defeasance Documents, in the event of the failure of the Successor Borrower to
maintain its status as a Single Purpose Entity in good standing, the Successor
Borrower's failure to file all required tax returns and pay all taxes which it
owes, or the Successor Borrower's failure to file all forms and documents
required to maintain its separate legal existence (in each case, which failure
shall continue for 60 days after Successor Borrower's receipt of written notice
of such failure), Successor Borrower hereby agrees to the assumption of the
Mortgage Loan by, and the transfer of the Pledged Collateral to, a Single
Purpose Entity designated by Lender and hereby appoints Lender and Servicer as
attorneys in fact with power of attorney to effect such transfer and assumption.
The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest
and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term of this Agreement.
