                                 LOAN AGREEMENT

      This agreement ("Loan Agreement" or "Agreement") is made and entered into
as of the 7th day of April, 2006, by and between THE NEWKIRK MASTER LIMITED
PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware limited partnership having an address of 7 Bulfinch
Place, Suite 500, P.O. Box 9507, Boston, Massachusetts 02114 (the "Borrower"),
KEYBANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, having an address
at 225 Franklin Street, 18th Floor, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, and the other
lending institutions which are, or may become, parties to this Agreement
pursuant to Section 13.22 (singly and collectively, the "Lenders"), KEYBANK,
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, with a [place of business
at 127 Public Square, Cleveland, Ohio 44114, as Agent for itself and such other
lending institutions (the "Agent"), and KEYBANC CAPITAL MARKETS, as the
Arranger.

                                   WITNESSETH:

                                    ARTICLE 1

                                   BACKGROUND

      1.1 Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined
either in Exhibit A, or in specific sections of this Agreement, or in another
Loan Document, as referenced in Exhibit A.

      1.2 Borrower. The Borrower is a limited partnership organized under the
laws of the State of Delaware. Newkirk Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "REIT"), is the general partner of the Borrower and holds a
30.1% ownership interest in the Borrower.

      1.3 Use of Loan Proceeds. The Borrower has applied to Lenders for a
revolving loan facility, with a letter of credit sub-facility (singly and
collectively, the "Facility") in the aggregate amount of up to ONE HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLARS ($100,000,000.00), with an initial commitment of FIFTY MILLION
DOLLARS ($50,000,000.00) (each loan advance under the Facility being a "Loan"
and collectively, the "Loans"), the proceeds of which are to be used to provide
funding for the working capital of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and
otherwise to fund certain investments and to repay certain existing and future
indebtedness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

      1.4 Guaranties. As an inducement to Lenders to make the Loans and to issue
Letters of Credit, as and when provided hereunder, the REIT has agreed to
furnish certain guaranties and indemnities to the Agent and the Lenders with
respect to the Loan (in such capacity, the "Guarantor").

      1.5 Loan. Subject to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of this
Agreement, and of the agreements and instruments referred to herein, each of the
Lenders agrees severally to make Loans and other financial accommodations to the
Borrower under the Facility up to the amount such Lender's Commitment, and the
Borrower agrees to accept and repay the Loans.

                                    ARTICLE 2

                                 LOAN PROVISIONS

<PAGE>

      2.1 The Facility/Advances.

            2.1.1 Subject to Section 2.1.2, in no event shall (a) the aggregate
      amount of all Loans outstanding from time to time plus (b) the aggregate
      L/C Exposure from time to time exceed in the Facility Amount.

            2.1.2 Provided no Default or Event of Default shall then be in
      existence (or would be after giving effect thereto), the Borrower shall
      have the right prior to April 7, 2007, to elect to further increase the
      Facility Amount and obtain Loans or Letters of Credit (subject in all
      instances to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and limitations
      hereunder) from the Lenders in the amount of such increase; provided,
      however, that (i) the total of such increases shall not be in excess of
      Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000.00) in the aggregate, (ii) such
      increases shall be approved by the Agent, such approval not to be
      unreasonably withheld, (iii) each such increase shall be in a minimum
      amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00), (iv) after any such
      increase the Facility Amount shall not exceed the Total Commitments of the
      Lenders (as such may be increased after the date hereof) as determined by
      the Agent, (v) the Borrower pays the commitment fee on such increase set
      forth in the addendum to the Agent's terms letter, and (vi) such increases
      shall have first been approved in writing by the Senior Agent, if required
      under the Senior Loan Documents. Such right may be exercised by the
      Borrower by written notice to the Agent (which the Agent will forward
      promptly to the Lenders), which election shall designate the increased
      Facility Amount. The Borrower shall execute and deliver any and all
      documentation and satisfy other conditions reasonably required by the
      Agent in order to evidence and effectuate the increase in the Facility
      Amount, including, without limitation, any new or replacement Note(s) as
      may be required by any Lender changing its Commitment or any new Lender
      issuing a new Commitment, and payment of any commitment fee by the
      Borrower as may be required by the Agent in connection with such increase.
      Any such increase of the Facility Amount shall not be effective until
      written confirmation from the Agent to the Borrower and the Lenders of
      such increased amount and the confirmation that such amount does not
      exceed the Total Commitments of the Lenders. The Borrower acknowledges and
      agrees that neither Agent nor any Lender has agreed to increase its
      Commitment to provide funding for such increased Facility Amount, and that
      any such agreement by Agent or any Lender shall be in its sole discretion.
      The Arranger agrees to exercise reasonable best efforts to secure such
      additional commitments if so requested by Borrower. The Arranger shall
      give the existing Lenders written notice of the Borrower's request to so
      increase the Facility Amount hereunder, and the existing Lenders shall
      have a right of first refusal with respect to electing to increase their
      respective Commitments, which right must be exercised by providing the
      Agent with written notice of such election within ten (10) Business Days
      of the notice provided by the Arranger. In the event the existing Lenders
      shall agree to increase their Commitments by an amount that is in excess
      of the requested increase, such increased Commitments shall be allocated
      by the Agent on a pro rata basis. In connection with any increase in the
      Facility Amount, (a) no Lender shall be required to increase the amount of
      such Lender's Commitment, and (b) each existing Lender's respective
      Percentage shall be adjusted to reflect the participation of the new
      Lender (or existing Lender increasing its Commitment) in the Facility and
      the increase in the Total Commitment.

            2.1.3 So long as no Loan or Letter of Credit request is pending, the
      Borrower may terminate the Facility, or reduce, from time to time, the
      Facility Amount, by giving prior irrevocable written notice to the Agent
      of such termination or reduction three (3) Business Days prior to the
      effective date of such termination or reduction (which date shall be
      specified by Borrower in such notice): (x)(1) in the case of complete
      termination of the Facility, upon prepayment of all of the outstanding
      Obligations, including, without limitation, all interest accrued thereon;
      or (2) in the case of a reduction of the Facility Amount, upon prepayment
      of the amount by which the Obligations exceed the reduced Facility Amount
      resulting from such reduction, including, without limitation, payment of
      all interest accrued thereon, provided, however, that, except in
      connection with a termination of the Facility Amount, the Facility Amount
      may not be reduced such that, upon such reduction, the Facility Amount is
      less than the L/C Exposure; and (y) in the case of the complete
      termination of the Facility, if any L/C Exposure exists, upon payment to
      the Agent for deposit in a segregated cash collateral account, as security
      for the L/C Exposure, an amount equal to the L/C Exposure. Unless
      otherwise required by law, upon the full and final payment of the L/C
      Exposure, or the termination of all outstanding L/C Exposure due to the
      expiration of all outstanding Letters of Credit prior to draws thereon,
      (x) the Agent shall return to the Borrower any amounts remaining in such
      cash collateral account, provided, however, that to the extent individual
      Letters of Credit expire, the Agent will return to the Borrower the
      corresponding amount of the expired L/C Exposure, and (y) the Borrower
      shall cause each beneficiary of each outstanding Letter of Credit to
      return such original Letters of Credit promptly to the Agent.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing: (A) after any reduction of the Facility
      Amount by Borrower the next subsequent reduction shall not occur until at
      least one month thereafter; (B) any reduction of the Facility Amount shall
      be in an amount equal to or greater than Five Million Dollars
      ($5,000,000.00) or in greater integral multiples of One Million Dollars
      ($1,000,000.00) thereafter; and (C) in no event shall a reduction by the
      Borrowers reduce the Facility Amount to less than Twenty Million Dollars
      ($20,000,000.00) (except for a termination of the Facility). Promptly
      after receipt of any notice of reduction or termination, the
      Administrative Agent shall notify each Bank of the same. Any reduction of
      the Facility Amount shall reduce the Commitments of the Lenders on a pro
      rata basis.

            2.1.4 Any and all advances of proceeds of the Loans or other
      financial accommodations shall be made by the Lenders pro rata in
      accordance with each Lender's Percentage. Loans may be prepaid and
      reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof, provided the
      aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding from any Lender shall not
      exceed at any one time such Bank's Commitment.

            2.1.5 The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing of Loans
      hereunder shall be not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for
      Adjusted Prime Rate Loans, and One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for
      LIBOR Rate Loans, or in greater integral multiples of One Hundred Thousand
      Dollars ($100,000.00) thereafter in either case.

            2.1.6 The obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not
      joint. Failure of any Lender to fulfill its obligations hereunder shall
      not result in any other Lender becoming obligated to advance more than its
      Percentage of any Loan or other financial accommodation, nor shall such
      failure release or diminish the obligations of any other Lender to fund
      its Percentage provided herein.

            2.1.7 Each request for a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit
      hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by Borrower that
      the conditions set forth in ARTICLE 5 hereof, as the case may be, have
      been satisfied on the date of such request and will be satisfied on the
      proposed drawdown date, unless otherwise disclosed in writing to the Agent
      prior to or at the time of such request, including the Borrower's
      continued compliance with the Financial Covenants, except to the extent
      the contemplated Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit will result in
      noncompliance with the Financial Covenants. Notwithstanding any such
      disclosure, the disclosure by Borrower to Agent that one or more of the
      conditions set forth in ARTICLE 5 hereof are not satisfied as of the date
      of Borrower's request for a Loan or Letter of Credit or will not be
      satisfied as of the proposed Drawdown Date shall entitle Agent to refuse
      to make the Loan and/or to issue the Letter of Credit requested by
      Borrower. Each such request for a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit
      hereunder shall be accompanied by an Officer's Certificate satisfactory to
      Agent demonstrating calculation of, and continued compliance with, all
      Financial Covenants and otherwise certifying continued compliance with all
      other covenants, representations and warranties hereunder, after giving
      effect to the requested Loan or Letter of Credit.

      2.2 Term of Loan; Extension Rights. The Facility shall be for a term
("Initial Term") commencing on the date hereof and ending on April 7, 2009
("Initial Maturity Date"). The Initial Term of the Facility may be extended for
one (1) year ("Extended Term") until April 7, 2010 ("Extended Maturity Date")
upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.8.

      2.3 Interest Rate and Payment Terms. The Loans shall be payable as to
interest and principal in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and
the Note. This Agreement also provides for interest at a Default Rate, Late
Charges and prepayment rights and fees. All payments for the account of Lenders
made by the Borrower shall be applied to the respective accounts of the Lenders
in accordance with each Lender's Percentage of the Loan. The Agent will disburse
such payments to the Lenders on the date of receipt thereof if received prior to
1:00 p.m. on such date and, if not, on the next Business Day. Any and all
interest rate selection and conversion provisions in this Agreement are to be
administered by the Agent and to be allocated on a pro rata basis to the portion
of the balance due under the Notes held by each Lender based upon such Lender's
Percentage.

      2.4 Interest Rate.

            2.4.1 The Loans will bear interest at the Applicable Rate, unless
      the Default Rate is applicable. The Adjusted Prime Rate shall be the
      "Applicable Rate", except that the Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall be the
      "Applicable Rate" with respect to portions of the Loans as to which a
      LIBOR Rate Option is then in effect. For each disbursement of proceeds of
      the Loan, Borrower shall deliver to Agent irrevocable notice (which may be
      verbal notice provided that Borrower delivers to Agent facsimile
      confirmation or electronic mail confirmation within twenty four (24) hours
      of such verbal notice) of the requested amount of such disbursement (x) if
      such disbursement is to bear interest at the Adjusted Prime Rate, not
      later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the Business Day prior to the
      desired date of disbursement and (y) if such disbursement is to bear


                                       4
<PAGE>

      interest at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate, not later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time
      on the third Business Day prior to the desired date of disbursement.
      Commencing May 1, 2006, Borrower shall pay interest in arrears on the
      first day of every calendar month in the amount of all interest accrued
      and unpaid on the Loan. All payments (whether of principal or of interest)
      shall be deemed credited to Borrower's account only if received by 12:00
      noon Eastern Time on a Business Day; otherwise, such payment shall be
      deemed received on the next Business Day.

            2.4.2 Provided that no Event of Default exists, Borrower shall have
      the option (the "LIBOR Rate Option") to elect from time to time in the
      manner and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth an Adjusted
      LIBOR Rate as the Applicable Rate for all or any portion of a Loan which
      would otherwise bear interest at the Adjusted Prime Rate.

            2.4.3 The only manner in which Borrower may exercise the LIBOR Rate
      Option is by giving Agent irrevocable notice (which may be verbal notice
      provided that Borrower delivers to Agent facsimile or email confirmation
      in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto within twenty-four (24) hours) of
      such exercise not later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the third (3rd)
      LIBOR Business Day prior to the proposed commencement of the relevant
      LIBOR Rate Interest Period, which written notice shall specify: (i) the
      portion of the Loans with respect to which Borrower is electing the LIBOR
      Rate Option, (ii) the LIBOR Business Day upon which the applicable LIBOR
      Rate Interest Period is to commence and (iii) the duration of the
      applicable LIBOR Rate Interest Period. The Applicable Rate for any portion
      of the Loans with respect to which Borrower has elected the LIBOR Rate
      Option shall revert to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate with a LIBOR Rate Interest
      Period of one-month (the "One-Month LIBOR Rate"), as of the last day of
      the LIBOR Rate Interest Period applicable thereto (unless Borrower again
      exercises the LIBOR Rate Option for such portion of the Loan). Agent shall
      be under no duty to notify Borrower that the Applicable Rate on any
      portion of the Loan is about to revert from an Adjusted LIBOR Rate to the
      One-Month LIBOR Rate. The LIBOR Rate Option may be exercised by Borrower
      only with respect to any portion of the Loans equal to or in excess of
      $500,000.00. At no time may there be more than six (6) LIBOR Rate Interest
      Periods in effect with respect to the Loan.

            2.4.4 If Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive
      and binding upon Borrower, absent manifest error) (i) that Dollar deposits
      in an amount approximately equal to the portion of the Loans for which
      Borrower has exercised the LIBOR Rate Option for the designated LIBOR Rate
      Interest Period are not generally available at such time in the London
      interbank market for deposits in Dollars, (ii) that the rate at which such
      deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost
      to any Lender of maintaining a LIBOR Rate on such portion of the Loans or
      of funding the same for such LIBOR Rate Interest Period due to
      circumstances affecting the London interbank market generally, (iii) that
      reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining a LIBOR Rate, or (iv) that
      an Adjusted LIBOR Rate would be in excess of the maximum interest rate
      which Borrower may by law pay, then, in any such event, to the extent that
      such Lender makes such determination generally with respect to its
      Borrower who borrow funds at a rate based upon the LIBOR Rate, Agent shall
      so notify Borrower and all portions of the Loans bearing interest at an
      Adjusted LIBOR Rate that are so affected shall, as of the date of such
      notification with respect to an event described in clause (ii) or (iv)


                                       5
<PAGE>

      above, or as of the expiration of the applicable LIBOR Rate Interest
      Period with respect to an event described in clause (i) or (iii) above,
      bear interest at the Adjusted Prime Rate until such time as the situations
      described above are no longer in effect or can be avoided by Borrower
      exercising a LIBOR Rate Option for a different LIBOR Rate Interest Period.

            2.4.5 Interest at the Applicable Rate (or Default Rate) shall be
      calculated for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day
      year, including the first date of the applicable period to, but not
      including, the date of repayment.

            2.4.6 Borrower shall pay all Breakage Costs incurred from time to
      time by Lender upon demand within fifteen (15) Business Days of receipt of
      written notice from Agent.

            2.4.7 If the introduction of or any change in any law, regulation or
      treaty, or in the interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority
      charged with the administration or interpretation thereof, shall make it
      unlawful for any Lender to maintain the Applicable Rate at an Adjusted
      LIBOR Rate with respect to the Loans or any portion thereof, or to fund
      the Loans or any portion thereof in Dollars in the London interbank
      market, or to give effect to its obligations regarding the LIBOR Rate
      Option as contemplated by the Loan Documents, then, to the extent that
      such Lender makes such determination generally with respect to its
      Borrower who borrow funds at a rate based upon the LIBOR Rate, (1) Agent
      shall notify Borrower that such Lender is no longer able to maintain the
      Applicable Rate at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate, (2) the LIBOR Rate Option shall
      immediately terminate, (3) the Applicable Rate for any portion of the
      Loans for which the Applicable Rate is then an Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall
      automatically be converted to the Adjusted Prime Rate, and (4) Borrower
      shall pay to Agent the amount of Breakage Costs (if any) incurred by such
      Lender in connection with such conversion. Thereafter, Borrower shall not
      be entitled to exercise the LIBOR Rate Option until such time as the
      situation described herein is no longer in effect or can be avoided by
      Borrower exercising a LIBOR Rate Option for a different LIBOR Rate
      Interest Period. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
      continuing, upon written demand of Borrower, the Borrower may with thirty
      (30) days written notice to the Agent, require any such Lender unable to
      maintain the Applicable Rate at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate pursuant to this
      Section 2.4.7 to sell and assign its entire interest in the Loans pursuant
      to Section 13.22 hereof to any Eligible Assignee identified by the
      Borrower in its demand and reasonably approved by the Agent, upon payment
      by such Eligible Assignee of the entire par amount of such Lender's
      interest in the Loan, plus any applicable Breakage Costs.

      2.5 Principal.

            2.5.1 Scheduled Payments. No scheduled payments of principal shall
      be due prior to the Maturity Date.

                  (a) Mandatory Principal Repayments. The Borrower shall make
            mandatory prepayments of principal equal to the excess of (a) the
            outstanding principal balance of loans made under the Facility, plus
            (b) the L/C Exposure, over the Facility Amount, as determined by the
            Agent from time to time (singly and collectively, the "Mandatory
            Principal Prepayments") each of which shall be due and payable on


                                       6
<PAGE>

            the later of (x) within five (5) Business Days of the event giving
            rise to such Mandatory Principal Prepayment obligation (the
            "Mandatory Prepayment Event") or (y) within three (3) Business Days
            of written demand therefor by the Agent.

            Any Mandatory Principal Prepayment shall be applied to then
            outstanding principal balance due under the Loan.

                  (b) Prepayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
            contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to
            the contrary, the Loans or any portion thereof may be prepaid in
            whole or in part by the Borrower, in minimum increments of at least
            One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or integral multiples of One
            Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) in excess thereof on any
            Business Day during the term of the Loan, upon five (5) days' prior
            written notice to the Agent. Any prepayment made pursuant to the
            foregoing shall be accompanied by the payment of interest accrued
            through the date of prepayment and the payment of any applicable
            Breakage Costs.

            2.5.2 Maturity. At maturity (or such earlier date as the Total
      Commitment shall have been terminated) all accrued interest, principal and
      other charges due with respect to the Loans or otherwise evidenced by the
      Notes shall be due and payable in full and the principal balance and such
      other charges, but not unpaid interest, shall bear interest at the Default
      Rate until so paid.

            2.5.3 Method of Payment; Date of Credit. All payments of interest,
      principal and fees shall be made in lawful money of the United States in
      immediately available funds, without counterclaim or set off and free and
      clear, and without any deduction or withholding for, any taxes (other than
      income taxes or franchise taxes of any Lender) or other payments (a) by
      direct charge to an account of Borrower maintained with Agent (or then
      holder of the Loan), or (b) by wire transfer to Agent or to such other
      bank or address as the holder of the Loans may designate in a written
      notice to Borrower. Payments shall be credited on the Business Day on
      which immediately available funds are received prior to 12:00 noon
      Cleveland Time; payments received after 12:00 noon Eastern Time shall be
      credited to the Loans on the next Business Day; payments which are by
      check, which Agent may at its option accept or reject, or which are not in
      the form of immediately available funds shall not be credited to the Loans
      until such funds become immediately available to Agent, and, with respect
      to payments by check, such credit shall be provisional until the item is
      finally paid by the payer bank.

            2.5.4 Billings. Agent may submit monthly billings reflecting
      payments due from the Borrower; however, any changes in the interest rate
      which occur between the date of billing and the due date may be reflected
      in the billing for a subsequent month. Neither the failure of Agent to
      submit a billing nor any error in any such billing shall excuse the
      Borrower from the obligation to make full payment of the Borrower's
      payment obligations when due.

            2.5.5 Default Rate. Agent shall have the option of imposing (and
      shall upon demand of the Required Lenders impose), and Borrower shall pay
      upon billing therefor, an interest rate which is three percent (3%) per
      annum above the interest rate otherwise payable ("Default Rate"): (a)
      following any Event of Default, unless and until the Event of Default is


                                       7
<PAGE>

      cured with the consent of Required Lenders or waived by Required Lenders;
      and (b) after Maturity. Borrower's right to select LIBOR pricing options
      shall be suspended upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a
      monetary Default or following any Event of Default or at Maturity.

            2.5.6 Late Charges. The Borrower shall pay, upon billing therefor, a
      "Late Charge" equal to five percent (5%) of the amount of any regularly
      scheduled payment of interest which is not paid within ten (10) days of
      the due date thereof (other than with respect to any payment as to which
      the said ten (10) day period expires after the implementation of the
      Default Rate). Late charges are: (a) except as provided above, payable in
      addition to, and not in limitation of, the Default Rate, (b) intended to
      compensate Agent for administrative and processing costs incident to late
      payments, (c) are not interest, and (d) shall not be subject to refund or
      rebate or credited against any other amount due.

            2.5.7 Prepayment Costs. The Borrower shall pay to Agent, immediately
      upon request and notwithstanding contrary provisions contained in any of
      the Loan Documents, such amounts as shall, in the conclusive judgment of
      Agent (in the absence of manifest error), compensate Agent and the Lenders
      for the Breakage Costs which they may reasonably incur as a result of (i)
      any payment or prepayment, under any circumstances whatsoever, whether
      voluntary or involuntary, of all or any portion of an Adjusted LIBOR Rate
      Advance on a date other than the last day of the applicable Interest
      Period of an Adjusted LIBOR Rate Advance, (ii) the conversion, for any
      reason whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary, of any Adjusted LIBOR
      Rate Advance to a Adjusted Prime Rate Advance on a date other than the
      last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) the failure of all or a
      portion of a Loan which was to have borne interest at the Adjusted LIBOR
      Rate pursuant to the request of Borrower to be made under the Loan
      Agreement (except as a result of a failure by any Lender to fulfill such
      Lender's obligations to fund), or (iv) the failure of the Borrower to
      borrow in accordance with any request submitted by it for an Adjusted
      LIBOR Rate Advance. Such amounts payable by the Borrower shall be equal to
      the Breakage Costs.

      2.6 Fees.

            2.6.1 Loan Fees. Borrower shall pay to the Agent the fees as and
      when provided in the addendum to the terms letter between the Borrower and
      the Agent. The fee shall be based upon the amount of the Total Commitment
      and shall be fully earned by the Agent on the Closing Date.

            2.6.2 Unused Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for
      distribution to each Lender an unused commitment fee (the "Unused
      Commitment Fee") for the period from the Closing Date until the Maturity
      Date (or such earlier date as the Total Commitment shall have been
      terminated) equal to the average daily amount of the Total Commitment then
      in effect which was unused (through the extension of Loans or L/C
      Exposure) during the immediately preceding calendar quarter calculated on


                                       8
<PAGE>

      the basis of actual days elapsed over the actual number of days for such
      quarter, multiplied by (a) if the average daily utilization of the Total
      Commitment is less than or equal to fifty percent (50%), twenty-five basis
      points (.25%), or (b) if the average daily utilization of the Total
      Commitment is greater than fifty percent (50%), twelve and one half basis
      points (.125%). The Unused Commitment Fee, as determined solely by Agent,
      shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each
      quarter commencing July 1, 2006, and on the Maturity Date or upon such
      earlier date as the Total Commitment shall be terminated.

            2.6.3 Extension Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the
      account of the Lenders "Extension Fees" (so referred to herein) in amounts
      representing one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the Total Commitment of
      the Lenders at the Initial Maturity Date, in connection with the
      Borrower's exercise of its extension right, and as a condition precedent
      to the effectiveness thereof, in each instance, as provided in Section
      2.8. In the event the Facility is not extended for any reason, the Agent
      shall promptly return the Extension Fee to the Borrower.

      2.7 Acceleration. The Agent may, and upon the request of the Required
Lenders shall, accelerate the applicable Loan, after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default. Upon such an acceleration, all
principal, accrued interest and costs and expenses shall be due and payable
together with interest on such principal at the Default Rate and any applicable
Prepayment Fee and any amounts due under Section 2.5.7.

      2.8 Conditions to Extending Loan. Upon satisfaction of each of the
following conditions, the Borrower may extend the Facility until the Extended
Maturity Date:

            2.8.1 No Default. No Default shall exist on the date of the
      Borrower's written notice for an extension as provided for below and on
      the Initial Maturity Date.

            2.8.2 Notice From Borrower. The Borrower shall have given Agent
      written notice of its request to exercise its extension right at least
      forty-five (45) days, but no more than ninety (90) days, before the
      Initial Maturity Date.

            2.8.3 Covenant Compliance. No breach of any covenants imposed upon
      the Borrower shall exist including, without limitation, the Financial
      Covenants;

            2.8.4 Conditions Satisfied. All of the conditions set forth in
      ARTICLE 5 of this Agreement shall continue to be satisfied;

            2.8.5 Extension Fee. The Extension Fee of 0.25% of the Facility
      referred to in Section 2.6.3 shall have been paid at least five (5) days
      prior to the Initial Maturity Date;

            2.8.6 Additional Documents. The Borrower and each Guarantor shall
      have executed and delivered to Agent such agreements and documents as
      Agent may reasonably require to effectuate the extension; provided,
      however, none of said requested agreements or documents shall provide for
      additional collateral or include any substantive modification of the terms
      and provisions of the Loan Documents;

            2.8.7 Before End of Term. Each of the foregoing conditions are
      satisfied not later than, and on, the Initial Maturity Date.


                                       9
<PAGE>

            Within twenty (20) days following receipt by Agent of Borrower's
      written notice under clause 2.8.2 above requesting the extension
      accompanied by the items described in Section 2.8, Agent shall notify the
      Borrower in writing if all of the conditions precedent to the extension,
      other than payment of the extension fee, have been satisfied, or if
      further information or documents set forth in Section 2.8 are required,
      specifying such missing information or documents. If Agent determines that
      the conditions to extension have been satisfied (or if the Agent notified
      the Borrower as provided above of any outstanding information or documents
      required by this Section 2.8, specifying such missing information or
      documents, and the Borrower provides outstanding information or documents
      prior to ten (10) days before the Initial Maturity Date), other than
      payment of the Extension Fee, Agent shall so notify the Borrower and upon
      Agent's receipt of the Extension Fee not later than five (5) days prior to
      the Initial Maturity Date, so long as no Default exists, the term of the
      Facility shall be extended until the Extended Maturity Date.

      2.9 Increased Costs and Capital Adequacy.

            2.9.1 Borrower recognizes that the cost to any Lender of maintaining
      the Loans or any portion thereof may fluctuate and, to the extent that
      such Lender makes such determination generally with respect to similarly
      situated borrowers, Borrower agrees to pay Agent additional amounts to
      compensate any such Lender for any increase in its actual costs incurred
      in maintaining the Loans or any portion thereof outstanding or for the
      reduction of any amounts received or receivable from Borrower as a result
      of:

                  (a) any change after the date hereof in any applicable law,
            regulation or treaty, or in the interpretation or administration
            thereof, or by any domestic or foreign court, (A) changing the basis
            of taxation of payments under this Agreement to any Lender (other
            than taxes imposed on all or any portion of the overall net income
            or receipts of Lenders or franchise taxes), or (B) imposing,
            modifying or applying any reserve, special deposit or similar
            requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of,
            credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds for loans by
            any Lender (which includes the Loans or any applicable portion
            thereof) (provided, however, that Borrower shall not be charged
            again the Reserve Percentage already accounted for in the definition
            of the Adjusted LIBOR Rate), or (C) imposing on any Lender, or the
            London interbank market generally, any other condition affecting the
            Loan, provided that the result of the foregoing is to increase the
            cost to any Lender of maintaining the Loans or any portion thereof
            or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable from
            Borrower by any Lender under the Loan Documents; or

                  (b) the maintenance by any Lender of reserves in accordance
            with reserve requirements promulgated by the Board of Governors of
            the Federal Reserve System of the United States with respect to
            "Eurocurrency Liabilities" of a similar term to that of the
            applicable portion of the Loans (without duplication for reserves
            already accounted for in the calculation of a LIBOR Rate pursuant to
            the terms hereof).

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon written
demand of Borrower, the Borrower may with thirty (30) days' written notice to
the Agent, require any such Lender whose costs of maintaining the Loans or any


                                       10
<PAGE>

portion thereof has increased as provided for in this Section 2.9.1 to sell and
assign its entire interest in the Loans pursuant to Section 13.22 hereof to any
Eligible Assignee identified by the Borrower in its demand and reasonably
approved by the Agent, upon payment by such Eligible Assignee of the entire par
amount of such Lender's interest in the Loan, plus any compensation required to
be paid hereunder and any applicable Breakage Costs.

            2.9.2 If the application of any law, rule, regulation or guideline
      adopted or arising out of the report of the Basle Committee on Banking
      Regulations and Supervisory Practices entitled "International Convergence
      of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards", or the adoption after the
      date hereof of any other law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding
      capital adequacy, or any change after the date hereof in any of the
      foregoing, or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any
      domestic or foreign Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable
      agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
      compliance by any Lender, with any request or directive regarding capital
      adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority,
      central bank or comparable agency, has the effect of reducing the rate of
      return on such Lender's capital to a level below that which such Lender
      would have achieved but for such application, adoption, change or
      compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender with
      respect to capital adequacy), then, to the extent that such Lender
      requires such compensation generally with respect to similarly situated
      Borrower, from time to time Borrower shall pay to such Lender such
      additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction with
      respect to any portion of the Loans outstanding. So long as no Event of
      Default has occurred and is continuing, upon written demand of Borrower,
      the Borrower may with thirty (30) days written notice to the Agent,
      require any such Lender to whom compensation is due and payable by the
      Borrower as provided for in this Section 2.9.2 to sell and assign its
      entire interest in the Loans pursuant to Section 13.22 hereof to any
      Eligible Assignee identified by the Borrower in its demand and reasonably
      approved by the Agent, upon payment by such Eligible Assignee of the
      entire par amount of such Lender's interest in the Loan, plus any
      compensation required to be paid hereunder and any applicable Breakage
      Costs.

            2.9.3 Any amount payable by Borrower under subsection 2.9.1 or 2.9.2
      above shall be paid within five (5) days of receipt by Borrower of a
      certificate signed by an authorized officer of Agent setting forth the
      amount due and the basis for the determination of such amount, which
      statement shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower, absent manifest
      error. Failure on the part of Agent to demand payment from Borrower for
      any such amount attributable to any particular period shall not constitute
      a waiver of Lender's right to demand payment of such amount for any
      subsequent or prior period. Agent shall use reasonable efforts to deliver
      to Borrower prompt notice of any event described in subsection 2.9.1 or
      2.9.2 above, of the amount of the reserve and capital adequacy payments
      resulting therefrom and the reasons therefor and of the basis of
      calculation of such amount; provided, however, that any failure by Agent
      so to notify Borrower shall not affect Borrower's obligation to pay the
      reserve and capital adequacy payment resulting therefrom.

      2.10 Borrower Withholding. If by reason of a change in any applicable laws
occurring after the date hereof, or, as to an Eligible Assignee acquiring an
interest in the Loans after the date hereof, after such Eligible Assignee


                                       11
<PAGE>

purchases such interest in the Loan, Borrower is required by law to make any
deduction or withholding in respect of any taxes (other than taxes imposed on or
measured by the net income of any Lender or any franchise tax imposed on any
Lender), duties or other charges from any payment due under the Note to the
maximum extent permitted by law, to the extent that such Lender imposes such
requirement generally with respect to similarly situated Borrower, the sum due
from Borrower in respect of such payment shall be increased to the extent
necessary to ensure that, after the making of such deduction or withholding,
each Lender receives and retains a net sum equal to the sum which it would have
received had no such deduction or withholding been required to be made. So long
as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon written demand of
Borrower, the Borrower may with thirty (30) days written notice to the Agent,
require any such Lender requiring the Borrower to make such deductions or
withholdings as set forth in this Section 2.10 to sell and assign its entire
interest in the Loans pursuant to Section 13.22 hereof to any Eligible Assignee
identified by the Borrower in its demand and reasonably approved by the Agent,
upon payment by such Eligible Assignee of the entire par amount of such Lender's
interest in the Loan, plus any amounts required to be paid hereunder and any
applicable Breakage Costs.

      2.11 Interest Rate Agreements.

            2.11.1 Any indebtedness incurred pursuant to an Interest Rate
      Agreement entered into by Borrower and Agent shall constitute indebtedness
      evidenced by the Note and secured by the other Loan Documents to the same
      extent and effect as if the terms and provisions of such Interest Rate
      Agreement were set forth herein, whether or not the aggregate of such
      indebtedness, together with the disbursements made by Lenders of the
      proceeds of the Loan, shall exceed the face amount of the Note.

            2.11.2 Borrower hereby collaterally assigns to Agent for the benefit
      of Lenders any and all Interest Rate Protection Products, if any,
      purchased or to be purchased by Borrower in connection with the Loan, as
      additional security for the Loan, and agrees to provide Lenders with any
      additional documentation requested by Lenders in order to confirm or
      perfect such security interest during the term of the Loan. If Borrower
      obtains an Interest Rate Protection Product from a party other than Agent,
      Borrower shall deliver to Lenders such third party's consent to such
      collateral assignment. No Interest Rate Protection Product purchased from
      a third party may be secured by an interest in Borrower, Borrower
      Subsidiaries, or the Collateral.

      2.12 Letters of Credit.

            2.12.1 Borrower has requested the Agent, and Agent has agreed, until
      the Maturity Date and subject to compliance with all of the other terms,
      conditions and provisions of this Agreement and there then occurring no
      Default or Event of Default, to issue on behalf of the Lenders one or more
      letters of credit (individually, a "Letter of Credit" and collectively,
      "Letters of Credit") for the Borrower as the account party, as may be
      requested from time to time by Borrower, in an aggregate amount not to
      exceed the lesser of (1) the Facility Amount minus the outstanding
      principal amount of the Loan minus the L/C Exposure, or (2) Fifteen
      Million Dollars ($15,000,000.00). The Borrower shall give the Agent
      written notice in the form of Exhibit N attached hereto (each a "Notice of
      Letter of Credit") that it requires the issuance of a Letter of Credit not
      later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the fifth (5th) Business Day
      preceding the requested date for issuance thereof under this Agreement (or


                                       12
<PAGE>

      such later date as the Agent may in its sole discretion agree to). Such
      notice shall be irrevocable unless and until such request is denied by the
      Agent and shall specify (i) the aggregate amount of the requested Letters
      of Credit, (ii) the individual amount of each requested Letter of Credit
      and the number of Letters of Credit to be issued, (iii) the date of such
      issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (iv) the name and address of the
      beneficiary and if other than the Borrower, the name and address of the
      Borrower Subsidiary for whose account the Letter of Credit will be issued,
      (v) the expiration date of the Letter of Credit, (vi) the purpose and
      circumstances for which such Letter of Credit is being issued, (vii) the
      terms upon which each such Letter of Credit may be drawn down (which terms
      shall not leave any discretion to Agent), (viii) that no Default or Event
      of Default has occurred or is continuing both before and after giving
      effect to such issuance, (ix) that no change in the financial condition of
      Borrower has occurred since the date of its financial statements or
      financial projections most recently delivered to Agent which change has
      had or can reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (x)
      that the Borrower and all Loan Parties are in compliance in all material
      respects with all covenants set forth herein after giving effect to such
      issuance, (xi) that all representations and warranties made under the Loan
      Documents (other than representations and warranties which speak as of a
      specific date) are true, correct and complete in all material respects as
      if made as of the date of such issuance, and (xii) the L/C Exposure and
      outstanding principal balance of the Loans. No later than 10:00 a.m.
      Eastern Time, on the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the date
      of issuance, the Borrower shall specify a precise description of the
      documents and the verbatim text of any certificate to be presented by the
      beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, which if presented by such
      beneficiary prior to the expiration date of the Letter of Credit would
      require the Agent to make a payment under the Letter of Credit; provided,
      that Agent may, in its reasonable judgment, require changes in any such
      documents and certificates only in conformity with changes in customary
      and commercially reasonable practice or law. In determining whether to pay
      on such Letter of Credit, the Agent shall be responsible only to determine
      that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under the
      Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face
      with the requirements of that Letter of Credit.

            2.12.2 In the event that prior to the Maturity Date, the beneficiary
      of any Letter of Credit draws all or a portion of the amount thereof, then
      the portion so drawn shall be treated as an advance under the Loan, and
      shall bear interest at the Adjusted Prime Rate and shall be treated as a
      Adjusted Prime Rate Advance under, and shall otherwise be payable on the
      same terms and conditions hereof. The foregoing is not intended to
      prohibit Borrower from converting such Adjusted Prime Rate Advance to an
      Adjusted LIBOR Rate Advance in accordance with the provisions hereunder.

            2.12.3 Each Letter of Credit shall be issued using the standard form
      of letter of credit then being used by Agent (which standard form shall,
      at Borrower's request, be provided by Agent to Borrower prior to the
      issuance of any Letter of Credit), and shall have an expiration date no
      later than thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date.

            2.12.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
      Agreement or the Notes, in no event shall Borrower have the right to
      terminate the Total Commitments under the Facility and to pay off the
      entire indebtedness evidenced by the Notes and, in connection therewith,
      advise Agent and the applicable Lenders that it unconditionally waives its


                                       13
<PAGE>

      right to obtain further applicable advances and Letters of Credit under
      the Loan unless Borrower first provides Agent with cash collateral equal
      to the amount of the Letters of Credit from a source other than the
      proceeds of the Loan, as determined solely by Agent.

            2.12.5 Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, a participation
      therein, in an amount equal to each Lender's Percentage, shall
      automatically be deemed granted by the Agent to each Lender on the date of
      such issuance and each Lender shall automatically be obligated, to
      reimburse the Agent to the extent of its Percentage for all obligations
      incurred by the Agent to third parties in respect of such Letters of
      Credit, if not otherwise deemed to be an advance under the Loan hereunder.

            2.12.6 The Agent may accept or pay any draft presented to it,
      regardless of when drawn and whether or not negotiated, if such draft, the
      other required documents and any transmittal advice are presented to the
      Agent and dated on or before the expiration date of the Letter of Credit
      under which such draft is drawn. The Agent may honor as complying with the
      terms of the Letter of Credit and with this Agreement any drafts or other
      documents otherwise in order signed or issued by an administrator,
      executor, conservator, trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession,
      assignee for benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other legal
      representative of the party authorized under such Letter of Credit to draw
      or issue such other drafts or other documents.

            2.12.7 The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits
      (1993 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500,
      and any subsequent revisions thereof approved by a Congress of the
      International Chamber of Commerce and adhered to by the Agent (the
      "Uniform Customs and Practice"), shall be binding on the Borrower and the
      Agent except to the extent otherwise provided herein, in any Letter of
      Credit or in any other Loan Document. Anything in the Uniform Customs and
      Practice to the contrary notwithstanding:

                  (a) No beneficiary of any Letter of Credit shall be deemed an
            agent of the Agent.

                  (b) With respect to any Letter of Credit, neither the Agent
            nor its correspondents shall be responsible for or shall have any
            duty to ascertain:

                  (c) the genuineness of any signature;

                  (d) the validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal
            effect of any endorsements;

                  (e) delay in giving, or failure to give, notice of arrival,
            notice of refusal of documents or of discrepancies in respect of
            which the Agent refuses the documents or any other notice, demand or
            protest;

                  (f) the performance by any beneficiary under any Letter of
            Credit of such beneficiary's obligations to the Borrower or any
            other party;


                                       14
<PAGE>

                  (g) inaccuracy in any notice received by the Agent; or

                  (h) the validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal
            effect of any instrument, draft, certificate or other document
            required by such Letter of Credit to be presented before payment of
            a draft, or the office held by or the authority of any Person
            signing any of the same.

            2.12.8 The obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents are
      absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly
      in accordance with the terms hereof under all circumstances, whatsoever,
      including the following:

                  (a) any lack of validity or enforceability or restriction,
            restraint, or stay in the enforcement of this Agreement, the Letters
            of Credit, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto,
            unless the Agent is restrained or stayed from honoring a drawing
            under the subject Letter of Credit;

                  (b) any amendment or waiver of, or consent to the departure
            from, the Letters of Credit, unless the said amendment, waiver or
            consent has been made in accordance with the Agent's procedures with
            respect thereto and with the written authorization or acknowledgment
            of the Agent; or

                  (c) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense, or other
            right which the Borrower may have at any time against the
            beneficiary of the Letters of Credit.

            2.12.9 The occurrence of any of the events referred to in the
      preceding clauses of this Section 2.12 shall not affect or prevent the
      vesting of any of the Agent's or any Lender's rights or powers hereunder
      or the Borrower's obligation to make reimbursement of amounts paid under
      any Letter of Credit or any draft accepted thereunder.

            2.12.10 All directions, correspondence, and funds transfers relating
      to the Letter of Credit are at the risk of the Borrower. Agent shall have
      discharged Agent's obligations under the Letter of Credit by the
      initiation of the method of payment called for in any drawing which
      includes payment instructions (or by any other commercially reasonable and
      comparable method). Unless caused by the gross negligence or willful
      misconduct of the Agent, Agent and the Lenders shall not have any
      responsibility for any inaccuracy, interruption, error, or delay in
      transmission or delivery by post, telegraph or cable, or for any
      inaccuracy of translation.

            2.12.11 The Borrower recognizes that:

                  (i) Agent has no financial or other interests in the
            beneficiary of Letters of Credit.

                  (ii) Agent is irrevocably obligated to honor a proper drawing
            under the Letters of Credit.

                  (iii) In the event of any conflict between the provisions of
            this Agreement and the Uniform Customs and Practice, the provisions
            of this Agreement shall govern.

      2.13 Letter of Credit Fees.

                  (i) Upon the issuance, renewal or extension of a Letter of
            Credit Borrower shall pay to the Agent for its own account an
            issuance fee in the amount equal to the greater of (a) of one-eighth
            of one percent (.125%) of the face amount of each Letter of Credit
            or (b) One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00).

                  (ii) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for distribution to
            each Lender a letter of credit fee (the "Letter of Credit Fee") for
            the period from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date (or such
            earlier date as the Total Commitment shall have been terminated)
            equal to the undrawn amount of each Letter of Credit during the
            immediately preceding calendar quarter, calculated on the basis of
            actual days elapsed over the actual number of days for such quarter,
            multiplied by the Applicable Margin respecting the LIBOR Rate
            Option, as set forth herein, on a per annum basis. The Letter of
            Credit, as determined solely by Agent, shall be due and payable
            quarterly in arrears on the first day of each quarter commencing
            July 1, 2006, and on the Maturity Date or upon such earlier date as
            the Total Commitment shall be terminated.

                  (iii) In addition to the Letter of Credit Fee payable pursuant
            to clause (ii) above and the Issuance Fees payable pursuant to
            clause (i) above, Borrower promises to pay to the Issuing Lender the
            customary charges from time to time of the Issuing Lender with
            respect to the issuance, amendment, transfer, administration,
            cancellation and conversion of, and drawings under, such Letters of
            Credit.

      It shall be a condition precedent of Lenders' obligation to close the

      compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Licenses and Permits,

      would have been satisfied. It shall be an Event of Default if the Borrower
      fails to make such a prepayment not later than the first to occur of: (i)
      ten (10) Business Days after notice from Agent to the Borrower properly
      requesting the payment, or (ii) if the Borrower has failed to give Agent
      sufficient reports to enable the Agent to make the necessary calculations,

      the Borrower shall have an additional five (5) days to supply additional
      information to the Agent from the date the Agent notifies the Borrower
      that the initial reports have been deemed insufficient by the Agent.

      dividing (i) the sum of (1) Borrower's allocable share of the aggregate

      outstanding balance of the "NMLP Loan" and the "T-Two Loan" (as such
      quoted terms are defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility Loan
      Agreement), but excluding the outstanding balance of the Securitized
      Notes) by (ii) the aggregate of (1) Aggregate Investment Capitalization of
      Borrower's allocable share of all the Borrower's Investments, plus (2)
      plus all cash and cash equivalents (excluding (A) any amounts contained in
      the Reinvestment Account but including (B) any amounts in excess of the
      Required T/I Amount (calculated for this purpose only based upon the
      projected leasing costs (as determined by the Agent) for the following
      twelve month period only) contained in the T/I Fund Account) of Borrower
      and the Borrower Subsidiaries (the "Consolidated Leverage Ratio"), all as
      reasonably determined by the Agent in a manner consistent with the
      procedures and methods utilized by the Agent in analyzing the financial
      information provided by Borrower prior to closing, shall at all times be
      less than the following during the relevant periods indicated:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Relevant period                                   Consolidated Leverage Ratio
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Closing through August 10, 2006                   67.5%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
August 11, 2006  through August 10, 2007          65.0%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
August 11, 2007  through August 10, 2008          62.5%

August 11, 2008 through  August 10, 2010,         60.0%
as may be  applicable during any Extended Term
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The compliance with the Consolidated Leverage Ratio covenant shall be tested by
the Agent on the Calculation Date with results based upon the then current
financial information, as reasonably determined solely by the Agent. If such
Consolidated Leverage Ratio covenant shall not be satisfied on any Calculation
Date, the Borrower shall prepay a sufficient amount of principal outstanding on
the Loan such that if such principal reduction had been made on the Calculation
Date, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio covenant would have been satisfied on such
Calculation Date. It shall be an Event of Default if the Borrower fails to make
such a prepayment not later than the first to occur of: (i) ten (10) Business
Days after notice from the Agent to the Borrower properly requesting the


                                       33
<PAGE>

payment, or (ii) if the Borrower has failed to give the Agent and each of the
Lenders sufficient reports to enable the Agent to make the necessary
calculations, forty-five (45) days following the applicable Calculation Date;
provided the Borrower shall have an additional five (5) days to supply
additional information to the Agent from the date the Agent notifies the
Borrower that the initial reports have been deemed insufficient by the Agent.

            7.22.3 Minimum Liquidity. The sum of all of Borrower's and the
      Borrower's Subsidiaries Liquid Assets (excluding, however, (a) the Liquid
      Assets of any Borrower Subsidiary as to which there exists a default or
      event of default on any Mortgage Debt of such Borrower Subsidiary, and (b)
      any amounts contained in the Reinvestment Account) must at all times be at
      least $5,000,000.00, all of the foregoing as reasonably determined by the
      Agent in a manner consistent with the procedures and methods utilized by
      the Agent in analyzing the financial information provided by Borrower
      prior to Closing. Any amounts in excess of the Required T/I Amount
      (calculated for this purpose only based upon the projected leasing costs
      (as determined by the Agent) for the following twelve (12) month period
      only) contained in the T/I Fund Account shall be included in the
      calculation of the minimum required Liquid Assets. If such Minimum
      Liquidity shall not be satisfied on any date of testing, Borrower shall
      arrange for an infusion of Liquid Assets in an amount necessary to satisfy
      the requirements of this Section 7.22.3. It shall be an Event of default
      if Borrower fails to arrange for any required additional Liquid Assets not
      later than ten (10) Business Days after notice from Agent to the Borrower
      notifying the Borrower of the noncompliance.

            7.22.4 Minimum Consolidated Net Worth. Minimum Consolidated Net
      Worth shall at all times be equal to or greater $400,000,000.00. "Minimum
      Consolidated Net Worth" shall mean the consolidated net worth of Borrower
      and the Borrower Subsidiaries using the Aggregate Investment
      Capitalization for all Borrower's Investments, plus all cash and cash
      equivalents of Borrower and the Borrower Subsidiaries, less the allocable
      share of all liabilities respecting the Individual Properties (excluding
      the Securitized Notes), and of Borrower and the Borrower Subsidiaries, as
      reasonably determined by the Agent in a manner consistent with the
      procedures and methods utilized by the Agent in analyzing the financial
      information provided by Borrower prior to closing. The compliance with the
      Minimum Consolidated Net Worth covenant shall be tested by the Agent on
      each Calculation Date with results based upon the then current financial
      information, as reasonably determined by the Agent in a manner consistent
      with the procedures and methods utilized by the Agent in analyzing the
      financial information provided by Borrower prior to Closing. If such
      Minimum Consolidated Net Worth covenant shall not be satisfied on any
      Calculation Date, the Borrower shall prepay a sufficient amount of


                                       34
<PAGE>

      principal outstanding on the Loan such that if such principal reduction
      had been made on the Calculation Date the Minimum Consolidated Net Worth
      covenant would have been satisfied on such Calculation Date. It shall be
      an Event of Default if the Borrower fails to make such a prepayment not
      later than the first to occur of: (i) ten (10) Business Days after notice
      from Agent to the Borrower properly requesting the payment, or (ii) if the
      Borrower has failed to give Agent and each of the Lenders sufficient
      reports to enable Agent to make the necessary calculations, forty-five
      (45) days following the applicable Calculation Date; provided the Borrower
      shall have an additional five (5) days to supply additional information to
      the Agent from the date the Agent notifies the Borrower that the initial
      reports have been deemed insufficient by the Agent.

      7.23 Regarding T/I Fund Account. Without limiting the generality of the
provisions of Section 7.8 hereof, the Borrower shall at all times maintain the
T/I Fund Account and comply fully with the provisions of Section 7.1.28 of the
Senior Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, concerning the Required
T/I Amount and the provisions respecting withdrawal of funds from the T/I Fund
Account only after the full amount of the Permitted T/I Debt has been incurred
as and when provided therein; provided, however, that in the event that Borrower
is no longer required to maintain the T/I Fund Account pursuant to the Senior
Loan Agreement, then Borrower shall immediately (i) provide Agent with written
notice of same and (ii) establish and maintain a T/I Fund Account with Agent
upon the same terms and conditions as set forth in Section 7.1.28 of the Senior
Loan Agreement and, in connection therewith, shall execute and deliver to Agent,
on behalf of the Lenders, such other and further instruments, documents, and
agreements as Agent shall determine necessary or appropriate.

compliance, in all material respects, with the (i) the Trading with the Enemy
Act, as amended, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the

and any other applicable enabling legislation or executive order relating
thereto, and (ii) the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate
Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA Patriot Act of 2001). To
the best of each Loan Party's Knowledge, no part of the proceeds of the Loan
will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental
official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate
for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to
obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation
of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

            further obligations to make any Loans to Borrower.

                  11.1.3 Pursue Remedies. Agent may, and with the direction of
            the Required Lenders shall, pursue any and all remedies provided for
            hereunder, under any one or more of the other Loan Documents, and/or
            otherwise.

      11.2 Written Waivers. If a Default or an Event of Default is waived by the
Required Lenders, in their sole discretion, pursuant to a specific written
instrument executed by an authorized officer of Agent, the Default or Event of
Default so waived shall be deemed to have never occurred.

      11.3 Power of Attorney. For the purpose of exercising the rights granted
by this Article 11, as well as any and all other rights and remedies of Agent
under the Loan Documents, the Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints Agent (or any agent designated by Agent) its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, to execute, acknowledge and
deliver any instruments and to do and perform any acts in the name and on behalf
of the Borrower. In connection with the foregoing power of attorney, the
Borrower hereby grants unto the Agent (acting through any of its officers) full
power to do any and all things after the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default necessary or appropriate in connection with the exercise
of such powers as fully and effectually as the Borrower might or could do,
hereby ratifying all that said attorney shall do or cause to be done by virtue
of this Agreement. The foregoing power of attorney shall not be affected by any
disability or incapacity suffered by the Borrower and shall survive the same.
All powers conferred upon the Agent by this Agreement, being coupled with an
interest, shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated by a written
instrument executed by a duly authorized officer of the Agent.

SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF SUCH BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR, ARE
HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

      12.3 Application. Each of the Lenders agrees with each other Lender that
with respect to this Agreement or under any other Loan Document (a) if an amount
to be set off is to be applied to indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Loan
Party to such Lender, other than the respective Obligations due to such Lender,
such amount shall be applied ratably to such other indebtedness and to the
Borrower's Obligations due to such Lender, and (b) if such Lender shall receive
from the Borrower or any other Loan Party, whether by voluntary payment,
exercise of the right of setoff, counterclaim, cross action, enforcement of the
claim due to such Lender by proceedings against the Borrower or any other Loan
Party at law or in equity or by proof thereof in bankruptcy, reorganization,
liquidation, receivership or similar proceedings, or otherwise, and shall retain
and apply to the payment of the Obligations due to such Lender any amount in
excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by all of the Lenders
with respect to the Borrower's Obligations due to all of the Lenders, such
Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Lenders with
respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of
claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Lender receiving in
respect of the subject Obligations its proportionate payment as contemplated by
this Agreement; provided that if all or any part of such excess payment is
thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and arrangements shall
be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without
interest.

      12.4 Right to Freeze. The Agent and each of the Lenders shall also have
the right, at its option, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
event which would entitle the Agent and each of the Lenders to set off or debit
as set forth in Section 12.2, to freeze, block or segregate any such deposits,
balances and other sums so that the Borrower may not access, control or draw
upon the same.

      12.5 Additional Rights. The rights of Agent, the Lenders and each
affiliate of Agent and each of the Lenders under this Article 12 are in addition
to, and not in limitation of, other rights and remedies, including other rights
of set off, which Agent or any of the Lenders may have.

                                   ARTICLE 13

                            THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS

      13.1 Appointment. KeyBank, National Association is hereby appointed as
Agent hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each Lender hereby
irrevocably authorizes the Agent to act as agent for Lender and to take such
actions as Lender is obligated or entitled to take under the provisions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Agent agrees to act as such upon the
express conditions contained in this Article in substantially the same manner
that it would act in dealing with a loan held for its own account. Agent shall
not have a fiduciary relationship with respect to any Lender by reason of this
Agreement. The provisions of this ARTICLE 13 which do not expressly grant
Borrower certain rights by direct reference to Borrower are solely for the
benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and Borrower shall not have any rights as
a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its
functions and duties under this Agreement, the Agent shall act solely as agent
of Lender and does not assume, and shall not be deemed to have assumed, any
obligations toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower,
provided, however, that nothing contained in this ARTICLE 13 shall be deemed to
release Agent or the Lenders from any of their obligations under this Agreement.

      13.2 Reliance on Agent. All acts of and communications by the Agent, as
agent for the Lenders, shall be deemed legally conclusive and binding; and
Borrower or any third party (including any court) shall rely on any and all
communications or acts of the Agent with respect to the exercise of any rights
or the granting of any consent, waiver or approval on behalf of a Lender in all
circumstances where an action by such Lender is required or permitted pursuant
to this Agreement or the provisions of any other Loan Document or by applicable
law without the right or necessity of making any inquiry of any individual
Lender as to the authority of Agent with respect to such matter. In no event
shall any of the foregoing limit the rights or obligations of any Lender with
respect to any other Lender pursuant to this ARTICLE 13.

      13.3 Powers. The Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under the
Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Agent by the terms of each
thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto or are
otherwise necessary or desirable in connection with the administration of the
Loan, and may exercise all other powers of Lender as are not made subject to the
consent of the Required Lenders pursuant to Section 13.26.1 or to the consent of
all Lenders pursuant to Section 13.26.2. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Agent may consent to or execute easements, plats, dedications, release of minor
portions of the collateral and similar documents. The Agent shall not be
considered, or be deemed, a separate agent of the Lenders hereunder, but is, and
shall be deemed, acting in its contractual capacity as Agent, exercising such
rights and powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the
Agent or Agent is otherwise entitled to take hereunder. Agent shall have no
implied duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any
action except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken
by the Agent.

      13.4 Disbursements.

            13.4.1 At least two (2) Business Days (by 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time)
      prior to each date a disbursement of a Loan is to be made or a Letter of
      Credit to be issued hereunder pursuant to this Agreement (or at least two
      (2) LIBOR Business Days by 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time for any disbursements


                                       49
<PAGE>

      to be made at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate), the Agent shall notify each Lender
      of the proposed disbursement or issuance. Each Lender shall make available
      to Agent (or the funding Lender or entity designated by the Agent), the
      amount of such Lender's Percentage of such disbursement or issuance (with
      respect to such Lender, such amount being referred to herein as an
      "Advance") in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m.
      Eastern Time on the date such disbursement is to be made (such date being
      referred to herein as a "Funding Date"). Unless the Agent shall have been
      notified by any Lender prior to such time for funding in respect of any
      Advance that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Agent
      such Lender's Advance, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
      amount available to the Agent and the Agent, in its sole discretion, may,
      but shall not be obligated to, make available to Borrower a corresponding
      amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the
      Agent by such Lender on or prior to the respective Funding Date, such
      Lender agrees to pay and Borrower agrees to repay to Agent forthwith on
      demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each
      day from the date such amount is made available to Borrower until the date
      such amount is paid or repaid to Agent, at (A) in the case of such Lender,
      the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and (B) in the case of Borrower, the
      interest rate applicable at the time to a disbursement made on such
      Funding Date. If such Lender shall pay to Agent such corresponding amount,
      such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Advance, and if both
      such Lender and Borrower shall have paid and repaid, respectively, such
      corresponding amount, Agent shall promptly return to Borrower such
      corresponding amount in same day funds. If any Lender declines to make
      available to Agent such Lender's advance as described above, so long as no
      Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon written demand of
      Borrower, the Borrower may require such Lender to sell and assign its
      entire interest in the Loans pursuant to Section 13.22 hereof to an
      Eligible Assignee, reasonably approved by Agent, upon payment by such
      Eligible Assignee of the entire par amount of such Lender's interest.

            13.4.2 Requests by the Agent for funding by the Lenders of
      disbursements of the Loan will be made by facsimile. Each Lender shall
      make its Advance available to the Agent in dollars and in immediately
      available funds to such Lender and account as the Agent may designate, not
      later than Noon Eastern Time on the Funding Date. Nothing in this Section
      13.4 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender of its obligation hereunder to
      make any Advance on any Funding Date, nor shall any Lender be responsible
      for the failure of any other Lender to perform its obligations to make any
      Advance hereunder, and the Commitment of any Lender shall not be increased
      or decreased as a result of the failure by any other Lender to perform its
      obligation to make any Advances hereunder.

            13.4.3 As soon as practical Agent will promptly forward to each
      Lender copies of any draw request documents and, if applicable, cause the
      Lender's Consultant to forward to each Lender a copy of the Lender's
      Consultant's most recent inspection. Delivery of the draw request
      documents and the Lender's Consultant's inspection report shall not be a
      condition to funding any Advance.

      13.5 Distribution and Apportionment of Payments.

            13.5.1 Subject to Section 13.5.4, payments actually received by
      Agent for the account of the Lenders shall be paid to them promptly after
      receipt thereof by Agent, but in any event within one (1) Business Day,


                                       50
<PAGE>

      provided that, if any such payments are not distributed to the Lenders
      within one (1) Business Day after Agent's receipt thereof, Agent shall pay
      to such Lenders interest thereon, at the lesser of (i) the Federal Funds
      Effective Rate and (ii) if the applicable payment represents repayment of
      a portion of the principal of the Loan, the rate of interest applicable to
      such portion of the Loan, from the date of receipt of such funds by Agent
      until such funds are paid in immediately available funds to such Lenders
      provided such funds are received by Agent not later than 11:00 A.M.
      Eastern Time on the date of receipt. All payments of principal and
      interest in respect of the Loan, all payments of the fees described in
      this Agreement (but not in any separate fee letter except to the extent
      expressly set forth therein), and all payments in respect of any other
      obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be allocated among
      such of Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion of their respective
      Percentages or otherwise as provided herein or in the other Loan
      Documents, as the case may be. The Agent shall distribute to each Lender
      at its primary address set forth herein or in its Assignment and
      Assumption, or at such other address as a Lender may request in writing,
      such funds as it may be entitled to receive, provided that the Agent shall
      in any event not be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope
      or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend
      all payments and seek appropriate relief (including without limitation
      instructions from the Required Lenders, or all Lenders, as applicable, or
      an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or
      dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby. The
      order of priority herein is set forth solely to determine the rights and
      priorities of the Lenders as among themselves and may at any time or from
      time to time be changed by the Lenders as they may elect, in writing,
      without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrower. The
      Agent shall upon each distribution noted above promptly notify Borrower of
      such distribution and each Lender of the amounts so distributed to it
      applicable to principal of, and interest on, the proportionate share held
      by the applicable Lender. Each payment to the Agent by Borrower as noted
      in this Section shall constitute a payment by the Borrower to each Lender
      in the amount of such Lender's proportionate of such payment, and any such
      payment to the Agent shall not be considered outstanding for any purpose
      after the date of such payment by the Borrower to the Agent without regard
      to whether or when the Agent makes distribution thereof as provided above.

            13.5.2 Distribution of Liquidation Proceeds. Subject to the terms
      and conditions hereof, the Agent shall distribute all Liquidation Proceeds
      in the order and manner set forth below:

      First:    To the Agent, towards any fees and any expenses for which the
                Agent is entitled to reimbursement under this Agreement or the
                other Loan Documents not theretofore paid to the Agent.

      Second:   To all applicable Lenders in accordance with their proportional
                share based upon their respective Percentages until all Lenders
                have been reimbursed for all expenses which such Lenders have
                previously paid to the Agent and not theretofore paid to such
                Lenders.

      Third:    Pro Rata to (a) all Lenders in accordance with their
                proportional share based upon their respective Percentages until
                all Lenders have been paid in full all principal and interest
                due to such Lenders under the Loan or otherwise respecting any
                Letter of Credit, with each Lender applying such proceeds for


                                       51
<PAGE>

                purposes of this Agreement against the outstanding principal
                balance and accrued and unpaid interest due to such Lender under
                the Loans or otherwise evidenced by the Notes in such fashion
                and priority as the Agent may direct, and (b) to the Agent in
                connection with any Interest Rate Protection Agreement (if any)
                or other hedging or protection arrangement entered into by the
                Borrower or any other party with the KeyBank, National
                Association with respect to the Loan.

      Fourth:   To all applicable Lenders in accordance with their proportional
                share based upon their respective Percentages until all Lenders
                have been paid in full all other amounts due to such Lenders
                under the Loans including, without limitation, any costs and
                expenses incurred directly by such Lenders to the extent such
                costs and expenses are reimbursable to such Lenders by the
                Borrower under the Loan Documents.

      Fifth:    To the Borrower or such third parties as may be entitled to
                claim Liquidation Proceeds.

            13.5.3 If a Lender (a "Defaulting Lender") defaults in making any
      Advance or paying any other sum payable by it hereunder, such sum together
      with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date such amount was
      due until repaid (such sum and interest thereon as aforesaid referred to,
      collectively, as the "Lender Default Obligation") shall be payable by the
      Defaulting Lender (i) to any Lender(s) which elect, at their sole option
      (and with no obligation to do so), to fund the amount which the Defaulting
      Lender failed to fund or (ii) to Agent or any other Lender which under the
      terms of this Agreement is entitled to reimbursement from the Defaulting
      Lender for the amounts advanced or expended. Notwithstanding any provision
      hereof to the contrary, until such time as a Defaulting Lender has repaid
      the Lender Default Obligation in full, all amounts which would otherwise
      be distributed to the Defaulting Lender shall instead be applied first to
      repay the Lender Default Obligation (to be applied first to interest at
      the Default Rate and then to principal) until the Lender Default
      Obligation has been repaid in full (whether by such application or by cure
      by the Defaulting Lender), whereupon such Lender shall no longer be a
      Defaulting Lender. Any interest collected from Borrower on account of
      principal advanced by any Lender(s) on behalf of a Defaulting Lender shall
      be paid to the Lender(s) who made such advance and shall be credited
      against the Defaulting Lender's obligation to pay interest on the amount
      advanced at the Default Rate. If no other Lender makes an advance a
      Defaulting Lender failed to fund, a portion of the indebtedness of
      Borrower to the Defaulting Lender equal to the Lender Default Obligation
      shall be subordinated to the indebtedness of Borrower to all other Lenders
      and shall be paid only after the indebtedness of Borrower to all other
      Lenders is paid. The provisions of this Section shall apply and be
      effective regardless of whether an Event of Default occurs and is then
      continuing, and notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Agreement
      to the contrary or (ii) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired
      application of payments. No Defaulting Lender shall have the right to vote


                                       52
<PAGE>

      on matters which are subject to the consent or approval of Required
      Lenders or all Lenders and while any Lender is a Defaulting Lender the
      requisite percentage of Lenders which constitutes the Required Lenders
      shall be calculated exclusive of the Percentage of the Defaulting Lender.
      The Agent shall be entitled to (i) withhold or set off, and to apply to
      the payment of the Lender Default Obligation any amounts to be paid to
      such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) bring an action or
      suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction
      to recover the Lender Default Obligation and, to the extent such recovery
      would not fully compensate the Lenders for the Defaulting Lender's breach
      of this Agreement, to collect damages. In addition, the Defaulting Lender
      shall indemnify, defend and hold Agent and each of the other Lenders
      harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, liabilities,
      damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses), plus
      interest thereon at the Default Rate, for funds advanced by Agent or any
      other Lender on account of the Defaulting Lender or any other damages such
      persons may sustain or incur by reason of or as a direct consequence of
      the Defaulting Lender's failure or refusal to abide by its obligations
      under this Agreement.

            13.5.4 At least five Business Days prior to the first date on which
      interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account of any Lender, each
      Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of
      America, or a state thereof, agrees that it will deliver to each of the
      Agent and the Borrower two duly completed copies of United States Internal
      Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN or W-8 ECI, certifying in either case that
      such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the
      Note without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income
      taxes. Each Lender which so delivers a Form W-8 BEN or W-8 ECI further
      undertakes to deliver to the Agent two additional copies of such form (or
      a successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes
      obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the
      most recent forms so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or
      extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by the
      Agent, in each case certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive
      payments under this Agreement and the Note without deduction or
      withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless any change
      in treaty, law or regulation has occurred after the initial delivery
      required by this Section 13.5.4 but prior to the date on which any such
      subsequent delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such
      forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing
      and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender advises
      the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any
      deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax, provided,
      however, that if any such Lender so advises the Agent, Agent shall
      promptly notify Borrower thereof, and so long as no Event of Default has
      occurred and is continuing, upon written demand of Borrower, the Borrower
      may require such Lender to sell and assign its entire interest in the
      Loans pursuant to Section 13.22 hereof to an Eligible Assignee, reasonably
      approved by Agent, upon payment by such Eligible Assignee of the entire
      par amount of such Lender's interest.

      13.6 Agency Provisions Relating to Collateral.

            13.6.1 The Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all Lenders,
      without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender,
      at any time and from time to time, to take any action with respect to any
      collateral for the Loans or any Loan Document which may be necessary to
      preserve and maintain such collateral or to perfect and maintain perfected
      the liens upon such collateral granted pursuant to this Agreement and the
      other Loan Documents.

            13.6.2 Except as provided in this Agreement, the Agent shall have no
      obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other person or entity to
      assure that any collateral exists or is owned by Borrower or is cared for,
      protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the liens granted
      herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or pursuant hereto or thereto
      have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected,
      protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority.


                                       53
<PAGE>

            13.6.3 Should the Agent commence any proceeding or in any way seek
      to enforce the Agent's or the Lenders' rights or remedies under the Loan
      Documents, irrespective of whether as a result thereof the Agent shall
      acquire title to any collateral, each Lender, upon demand therefor from
      time to time, shall contribute its share (based on its Percentage) of the
      reasonable costs and/or expenses of any such enforcement or acquisition,
      including, but not limited to, fees of receivers or trustees, court costs,
      title company charges, filing and recording fees, appraisers' fees and
      fees and expenses of attorneys to the extent not otherwise reimbursed by
      Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender
      shall contribute its share (based on its Percentage) of all reasonable
      costs and expenses incurred by the Agent (including reasonable attorneys'
      fees and expenses) if the Agent employs counsel for advice or other
      representation (whether or not any suit has been or shall be filed) with
      respect to any collateral for the Loans or any part thereof, or any of the
      Loan Documents, or the attempt to enforce any security interest or lien on
      any collateral, or to enforce any rights of the Agent or the Lenders or
      any of Borrower's or any other party's obligations under any of the Loan
      Documents, but not with respect to any dispute between Agent and any other
      Lender(s). It is understood and agreed that in the event the Agent
      determines it is necessary to engage counsel for Lender from and after the
      occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, said counsel shall be
      selected by the Agent and written notice of such selection, together with
      a copy of such counsel's engagement letter and fee estimate, shall be
      delivered to the Lenders.

            13.6.4 In the event that all or any portion of the collateral for
      the Loans is acquired by the Agent as the result of the exercise of any
      remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or is retained in
      satisfaction of all or any part of Borrower's obligations under the Loan
      Documents, title to any such collateral or any portion thereof shall be
      held in the name of the Agent or a nominee or subsidiary of Agent, as
      agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders. The Agent
      shall prepare a recommended course of action for such collateral (the
      "Post-Default Plan"), which shall be subject to the approval of the
      Required Lenders. The Agent shall administer the collateral in accordance
      with the Post-Default Plan, and upon demand therefor from time to time,
      each Lender will contribute its share (based on its Percentage) of all
      reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Agent pursuant to the
      Post-Default Plan, including without limitation, any operating losses and
      all necessary operating reserves. To the extent there is net operating
      income from such collateral, the Agent shall, in accordance with the
      Post-Default Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to
      Lenders. All such distributions shall be made to Lenders in accordance
      with their respective Percentages. In no event shall the provisions of
      this subsection or the Post-Default Plan require the Agent or any Lender
      to take an action which would cause such Lender to be in violation of any
      applicable regulatory requirements.

      13.7 Lender Actions Against Borrower or the Collateral. Each Lender agrees
that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings,
against Borrower or any other person hereunder or under any other Loan Documents
with respect to exercising claims against the Borrower or rights in any


                                       54
<PAGE>

collateral without the consent of the Required Lenders. With respect to any
action by the Agent to enforce the rights and remedies of the Agent and Lenders
with respect to the Borrower and any collateral in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, each Lender hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the court in
which such action is maintained.

      13.8 Assignment and Participation. No Lender shall be permitted to assign
or sell all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to
Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower.

      13.9 Ratable Sharing. Subject to Sections 13.4 and 13.5, Lenders agree
among themselves that (i) with respect to all amounts received by them which are
applicable to the payment of the Loan, equitable adjustment will be made so
that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in
accordance with their Percentages, whether received by voluntary payment, by the
exercise of the right of set-off or bankers' lien, by counterclaim or cross
action or by the enforcement of any or all of the Loan Documents or any
collateral and (ii) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise
of any right of counterclaim, set-off, bankers' lien or otherwise, receive
payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the Loans held by it which is
greater than its Percentage of the payments on account of the Loan, the one
receiving such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an
undivided interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done
simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in such obligations owed to the
others so that all such recoveries with respect to such obligations shall be
applied ratably in accordance with their Percentages; provided, that if all or
part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter
recovered from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices
paid for such participations shall be returned to that party to the extent
necessary to adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent
the purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such
recovery. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from
another Lender pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with
respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct
creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.

      13.10 General Immunity. Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers,
agents or employees shall be liable to Borrower or any Lender for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan
Document or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its or their own
gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the absence of gross negligence, the
Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made
by it in good faith pursuant to Section 13.5, and if any such apportionment or
distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole
recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due, but not made, shall be to
recover from the recipients of such payments any payment in excess of the amount
to which they are determined to have been entitled.

      13.11 No Responsibility for Loan, Recitals, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of
its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have
any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any use of the
Loans; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements
of any party to any Loan Document; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition
specified in this Agreement, except receipt of items purporting to be the items
required to be delivered to any Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or
genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in
connection therewith, provided that the foregoing shall not release Agent from
liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

      13.12 Action on Instructions of Lenders. The Agent shall in all cases be
fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any
other Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by all the
Lenders (or the Required Lenders, if such action may be directed hereunder by
the Required Lenders), and such instructions and any action taken or failure to
act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of Lenders. Each Lender, severally
to the extent of its Percentage, hereby agrees to indemnify Agent against and
hold it harmless from any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur
by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action, provided that the
foregoing shall not release Agent from liability for its gross negligence or
willful misconduct.

      13.13 Employment of Agents and Counsel. The Agent may undertake any of its
duties as Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through
employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable to Lenders,
except as to money or securities received by them or their authorized agents,
for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected
by it with reasonable care. The Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel
concerning all matters pertaining to the agency hereby created and its duties
hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

      13.14 Reliance on Documents; Counsel. The Agent shall be entitled to rely
upon any notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, statement,
paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been
signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and, in respect to legal
matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Agent, which counsel may be
an employee of Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not release the Agent
from liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any such counsel
shall be deemed to be acting on behalf of Lender in assisting the Agent with
respect to the Loan, but shall not be precluded from also representing Agent in
any matter in which the interests of Agent and the other Lenders may differ.

      13.15 Agent' Reimbursement and Indemnification. Lenders agree to reimburse
and indemnify Agent ratably (i) for any amounts (excluding principal and
interest on the Loans and loan fees) not reimbursed by Borrower for which Agent
is entitled to reimbursement under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other
expenses incurred by Agent on behalf of Lender, in connection with the
preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan
Documents, if not paid by Borrower, (iii) for any expenses incurred by Agent on
behalf of Lender which may be necessary or desirable to preserve and maintain
collateral or to perfect and maintain perfected the liens upon the collateral
granted pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, if not paid by
Borrower, (iv) for any amounts and other expenses incurred by Agent on behalf of
Lender in connection with any default by any Lender hereunder or under the other
Loan Documents, if not paid by such Lender, and (v) for any liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed
on, incurred by or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out
of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or
the transactions contemplated thereby, or the enforcement of any of the terms
thereof or of any such other documents, provided that no Lender shall be liable
for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of Agent.


                                       56

      13.16 Rights as a Lender. With respect to its Commitment, if any, Agent
shall have the same rights, powers and obligations hereunder and under any other
Loan Document as any Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it
were not an Agent, and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless the context
otherwise indicates, include Agent in its individual capacities. The Borrower
and each Lender acknowledge and agree that Agent and/or its affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, hold other investments in, and generally
engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction or have other
relationships, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, with Borrower or any of its affiliates in which Borrower or such
affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other person.

      13.17 Lenders' Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based
on the financial statements and other information prepared by Borrower and such
other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.

      13.18 Notice of Events of Default. Should Agent receive any written notice
of the occurrence of a default or Event of Default, or should the Agent send
Borrower a notice of Default or Event of Default, the Agent shall promptly
furnish a copy thereof to each Lender.

      13.19 Successor Agent.

            13.19.1 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
      contrary, KeyBank, National Association shall serve as Agent pursuant to
      this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the following (the
      "Resignation Event"): (a) the occurrence of an Event of Default, or (b)
      the date upon which the Facility is terminated. Following such a
      Resignation Event, Agent may resign from the performance of all its
      functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty (30)
      days prior written notice to Lenders and Borrower. Such resignation shall
      take effect on the date set forth in such notice or as otherwise provided
      below. Such resignation by Agent as agent shall not affect its obligations
      hereunder, if any, as a Lender.

            13.19.2 Upon resignation by the Agent, or any successor Agent, the
      Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Agent with the consent of
      Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed
      (provided that no consent of Borrower shall be required if the successor
      Agent is also a Lender or if an Event of Default then exists). If no
      successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and
      shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the
      retiring Agent's giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may
      appoint a successor Agent with the consent of Borrower, which shall not be
      unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (provided that no consent of
      Borrower shall be required if the successor Agent is also a Lender or if
      an Event of Default then exists). Upon the acceptance of any appointment
      as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall
      thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
      privileges and duties of the Agent and the Agent, and the retiring Agent
      shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under
      the other Loan Documents other than its liability, if any, for duties and
      obligations accrued prior to its retirement. After any retiring Agent's
      resignation hereunder as an Agent, the provisions of this ARTICLE 13 shall
      continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or
      omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as an Agent hereunder and
      under the other Loan Documents.


                                       57

      13.20 Distribution by Agent. If in the opinion of the Agent distribution
of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder or under the Notes or
under any of the other Loan Documents might involve any liability, it may
refrain from making distribution until its right to make distribution shall have
been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction or has been resolved by
the mutual consent of all Lenders. In addition, the Agent may request full and
complete indemnity, in form and substance satisfactory to it, prior to making
any such distribution. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that
any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each person to
whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent
its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over
to the same in such manner and to such persons as shall be determined by such
court.

      13.21 Holders. The Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the
owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the
assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been
filed with the Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any person or entity
who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is
the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder,
transferee or endorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes
issued in exchange therefor.

      13.22 Assignment and Participation. Each Lender shall have the right to
assign, transfer, sell, negotiate, pledge or otherwise hypothecate this
Agreement and any of its rights and security hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents to any other Eligible Assignee with the prior written consent of the
Agent and with the prior written consent of Borrower, which consents by the
Agent and the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed (provided that, in the case of the Borrower, such consent shall not be
required if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
and provided, further, such consent shall not be required from either the Agent
or the Borrower in connection with any assignment as to which (a) the assignee
is an existing Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) or (b) an Affiliate or a
Related Fund of the assigning Lender)); provided, however, that (i) the parties
to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Agent, for its approval and
acceptance, an Assignment and Assumption in form and substance satisfactory to
the Agent and substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto,
(ii) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage
of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iii)
unless the Agent and, so long as no Event of Default exists, Borrower otherwise
consent, the aggregate amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender being
assigned pursuant to each such assignment shall in no event be less than One
Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), provided, however, that such minimum amount
shall not apply if either (x) the assignee is an Affiliate or Related Fund of
the Assigning Lender or (y) the Lender is assigning its entire remaining
interest in the Loan, (iv) the Agent shall receive from the assigning Lender a
processing fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500.00), provided,
however, that such fee shall not apply if the assignee is an Affiliate or


                                       58
<PAGE>

Related Fund of the Assigning Lender, and (v) if the assignment is less than the
assigning Lender's entire interest in the Loan, the assigning Lender must retain
at least a One Million Dollar ($1,000,000.00) interest in the Loan, provided
that such minimum shall not apply if the assignee is an Affiliate or Related
Fund of the assigning Lender. The Agent may designate any Eligible Assignee
accepting an assignment of a specified portion of the Loans to be a Co-Agent, an
"Arranger" or similar title, but such designation shall not confer on such
Assignee the rights or duties of the Agent. Upon such execution, delivery,
approval and acceptance, and upon the effective date specified in the applicable
Assignment and Assumption, (a) the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party
hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been
assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and
Borrower hereby agrees that all of the rights and remedies of Lenders in
connection with the interest so assigned shall be enforceable against Borrower
by such Eligible Assignee with the same force and effect and to the same extent
as the same would have been enforceable but for such assignment, and (b) the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant
to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights and be released from
its obligations hereunder and thereunder thereafter accruing.

            13.22.1 By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption,
      the assigning Lender thereunder and the Eligible Assignee thereunder
      confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as
      follows: (i) except as provided in such Assignment and Assumption, such
      assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no
      responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or
      representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other
      Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
      genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan
      Document or any other instrument or document furnished in connection
      therewith; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty
      and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of
      the Borrower or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of
      its obligations under any Loan Document or any other instrument or
      document furnished in connection therewith; (iii) such Eligible Assignee
      confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement together with such
      financial statements, Loan Documents and other documents and information
      as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision
      to enter into the Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender
      hereunder; (iv) such Eligible Assignee will, independently and without
      reliance upon Agent, the assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based
      on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
      time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking
      action under this Agreement; (v) such Eligible Assignee appoints and
      authorizes the Agent to take such action as the Agent on its behalf and to
      exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as
      are delegated to Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such
      powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such Eligible
      Assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of
      the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be
      performed by it as a Lender.

            13.22.2 Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and
      Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and shall record in its records
      the names and address of each Lender and the Commitment of, and Percentage
      of the Loans owing to, such Lender from time to time. Borrower, the Agent
      and Lenders may treat each entity whose name is so recorded as a Lender
      hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.


                                       59
<PAGE>

            13.22.3 Upon receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an
      assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, Agent shall, if such Assignment
      and Assumption has been properly completed and consented to if required
      herein, accept such Assignment and Assumption, and record the information
      contained therein in its records, and the Agent shall use its best efforts
      to give prompt notice thereof to Borrower (provided that neither the Agent
      nor the Lenders shall be liable for any failure to give such notice).

            13.22.4 Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with
      Agent and each Lender in connection with the assignment of interests under
      this Agreement or the sale of participations herein which shall be at no
      cost to the Borrower.

            13.22.5 Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
      and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural
      requirements of this Agreement, including this Section, any Lender may at
      any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of its
      rights under all or any of the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank
      or, in the case of a Lender which is a fund, to any holders of obligations
      owed or securities issued by such Lender or any trustee for or other
      representatives of such holders; provided that no such pledge or
      assignment shall release such Lender from its obligations hereunder. To
      facilitate any such pledge or assignment, the Agent shall, at the request
      of such Lender, enter into a letter agreement with the Federal Reserve
      Bank in, or substantially in, the form of the exhibit to Appendix C to the
      Federal Reserve Bank of New York Operating Circular No. 12.

            13.22.6 Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
      any Lender may assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations
      under this Agreement to another branch or affiliate of such Lender without
      first obtaining the approval of any Agent or the Borrower, provided that
      (i) such Lender remains liable hereunder unless the Borrower and Agent
      shall otherwise agree, (ii) at the time of such assignment such Lender is
      not a Defaulting Lender, (iii) such Lender gives the Agent and Borrower at
      least fifteen (15) days' prior written notice of any such assignment; (iv)
      the parties to each such assignment execute and deliver to Agent an
      Assignment and Assumption, and (v) the Agent receives from the assigning
      Lender a processing fee of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500).

            13.22.7 Each Lender shall have the right, without the consent of the
      Borrower, to sell participations to one or more Eligible Assignees, or an
      Affiliate or Related Fund of the assigning Lender, in or to all or a
      portion of its rights and obligations under the Facility and the Loan
      Documents; provided, however, that (i) such Lender's obligations under
      this Agreement (including without limitation its Commitment to Borrower
      hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely
      responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such
      obligations (iii) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall
      continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with
      such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and with regard
      to any and all payments to be made under this Agreement and (iv) the
      holder of any such participation shall not be entitled to voting rights
      under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (but such holder may
      contract with the Lender selling such Eligible Assignee its interest in
      such Lender's share of the Facility as to voting of such Lender's interest
      under Section 13.26.2 but not under any other section of this Agreement,
      provided that any such agreement by a Lender shall bind only such Lender
      alone and not Borrower, the other Lenders or the Agent).

<PAGE>

            13.22.8 No Eligible Assignee of any rights and obligations under
      this Agreement shall be permitted to subassign such rights and
      obligations. No participant in any rights and obligations under this
      Agreement shall be permitted to sell subparticipations of such rights and
      obligations.

            13.22.9 Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lenders may provide to
      any assignee or participant originals or copies of this Agreement, any
      other Loan Document and any other documents, instruments, certificates,
      opinions, insurance policies, letters of credit, reports, requisitions and
      other materials and information of every nature or description, and may
      communicate all oral information, at any time submitted by or on behalf of
      Borrower or received by any Lender in connection with the Facility or with
      respect to Borrower, provided that prior to any such delivery or
      communication, such Eligible Assignees or participants shall agree to
      preserve the confidentiality of any of the foregoing to the same extent
      that such Lender agreed to preserve such confidentiality. In order to
      facilitate assignments to Eligible Assignees and sales to Eligible
      Assignees, Borrower shall execute such further documents, instruments or
      agreements as Lenders may reasonably require; provided, that Borrower
      shall not be required (i) to execute any document or agreement which would
      materially decrease its rights, or materially increase its obligations,
      relative to those set forth in this Agreement or any of the other Loan
      Documents (including financial obligations, personal recourse,
      representations and warranties and reporting requirements), or (ii) to
      expend more than incidental sums of money or incidental administrative
      time for which it does not receive reasonable reimbursement in order to
      comply with any requests or requirements of any Lender in connection with
      such assignment or sale arrangement. In addition, Borrower agrees to
      reasonably cooperate fully with Lenders in the exercise of Lenders' rights
      pursuant to this Section, including providing such information and
      documentation regarding Borrower as any Lender or any potential Eligible
      Assignee may reasonably request and to meet with potential Eligible
      Assignees in Borrower's offices.

      13.23 Several Liability. Anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Lender to Borrower under this
Agreement are several and not joint and several; each Lender shall only be
obligated to fund its Percentage of each disbursement to be made hereunder up to
the amount of its Commitment. Failure of any Lender to fulfill its obligations
hereunder shall not result in any other Lender becoming obligated to advance
more than its Commitment, nor shall such failure release or diminish the
obligations of any other Lender to fund its Commitment provided herein. During
any time, and only during such time, as Agent is the sole Lender and has not
assigned any portion or portions of its interest in the Loans to another Lender
pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, Agent in its individual
capacity shall be liable for all of the obligations of the Lender under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. From and after the date that Agent as
the sole Lender assigns any portion or portions of its interest in the Loans to
another Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, then Agent
shall act as the Agent on behalf of itself as a Lender and the other Lenders.


                                       61

      13.24 Miscellaneous Assignment Provisions. Any assigning Lender shall
retain its rights to be indemnified pursuant to Section 7.19 with respect to any
claims or actions arising prior to the date of such assignment. If any assignee
Lender is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or any
state thereof, it shall prior to the date on which any interest or fees are
payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for its account,
deliver to the Borrower and the Agent certification as to its exemption from
deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes.

            protect the Lenders or the collateral securing the Loan;

                  (b) Appointment of a successor Agent;

            interest rate options or the rate at which fees are calculated or
            forgive any loan fee, or extend the time of payment of any
            principal, interest or fees;

                  (b) Reduction of the percentage specified in the definition of
            Required Lenders;

                  (h) Modification of Section 13.5.2 on the distribution of

            13.26.3 In addition to the required consents or approvals referred
      to in Sections 13.26.1 and 13.26.2 above, the Agent may at any time
      request instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any actions
      or approvals which, by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan
      Documents, the Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant without
      instructions from any Lenders, and if such instructions are promptly
      requested, the Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking
      any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any
      liability whatsoever for refraining from taking any action or withholding
      any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received
      such instructions from the Required Lenders. Without limiting the
      foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any
      Agent as a result of such Agent acting or refraining from acting under
      this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the
      instructions of the Required Lenders or, where applicable, all Lenders.
      The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender at any time that the Required
      Lenders have instructed the Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant
      hereto.

            13.26.4 Each Lender authorizes and directs the Agent to enter into
      the Loan Documents other than this Agreement for the benefit of the
      Lenders. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by the Agent at the
      direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders in accordance with
      the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the
      exercise by the Agent at the direction or with the consent of the Required
      Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such
      other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and
      binding upon all Lenders, except for actions specifically requiring the
      approval of all Lenders. All communications from the Agent to the Lenders
      requesting Lenders' determination, consent, approval or disapproval (i)
      shall be given in the form of a written notice to each Lender, (ii) shall
      be accompanied by a description of the matter or item as to which such
      determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall
      advise each Lender where such matter or item may be inspected, or shall
      otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (iii) shall
      include, if reasonably requested by a Lender and to the extent not
      previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all
      oral information provided to the Agent by Borrower in respect of the
      matter or issue to be resolved, and (iv) shall include the Agent's
      recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Each
      Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within ten (10) Business
      Days after receipt of the request therefor from the Agent (the "Lender


                                       63
<PAGE>

      Reply Period"). Unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Agent
      that it objects to the recommendation or determination of the Agent
      (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection)
      within the Lender Reply Period, such Lender shall be deemed to have
      approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination. With
      respect to decisions requiring the approval of the Required Lenders or all
      Lenders, the Agent shall upon receiving the required approval or consent
      follow the course of action or determination recommended to the Lenders by
      the Agent or such other course of action recommended by the Required
      Lenders. Where this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document requires
      that Borrower deliver any documentation to Agent or any Lenders, the
      Borrower shall deliver the same to Agent and Agent shall promptly deliver
      copies of the same to each of the Lenders.

      13.27 Arranger. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement or of the
other Loan Documents, the Arranger shall have no powers, rights, duties,
responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents. To the extent requested by the Agent, the Arranger has
coordinated, or will coordinate, the initial syndication of the Facility and the
assignment of interests in the Facility.

      14.2 Limitations on Assignment. The Borrower may not assign this Agreement
or the monies due thereunder without the prior written consent of all of the
Lenders in each instance, but in such event Lenders may nevertheless at their
option make the Loans under this Agreement to the Borrower or to those who
succeed to the title of the Borrower and all sums so advanced by Lenders shall
be deemed a Loan under this Agreement and not to be modifications thereof and
shall be secured by all of the Collateral for the subject's Borrower's
Obligations given at any time in connection herewith.

      14.3 Further Assurances. The Borrower shall upon request from Agent from
time to time execute, seal, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments or
documents which Agent may reasonably require to better perfect and confirm its

                                       66

      This Agreement is a contract by and among the Borrower, the Agent and each
of the Lenders for their mutual benefit, and no third person shall have any
right, claim or interest against either Agent, any of the Lenders or the
Borrower by virtue of any provision hereof.

      14.6 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial.

            14.6.1 Substantial Relationship. It is understood and agreed that
      all of the Loan Documents were negotiated, executed and delivered in The
      Commonwealth of Massachusetts, which Commonwealth the parties agree has a
      substantial relationship to the parties and to the underlying transactions
      embodied by the Loan Documents.

            14.6.2 Place of Delivery. The Borrower agrees to furnish to Agent at
      the Agent's office in Boston, Massachusetts all further instruments,
      certifications and documents to be furnished hereunder.

            14.6.3 Governing Law. This Agreement and each of the other Loan
      Documents shall in all respects be governed, construed, applied and
      enforced in accordance with the internal laws of The Commonwealth of
      Massachusetts without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

            14.6.4 Consent to Jurisdiction. The Borrower hereby consents to
      personal jurisdiction in any state or Federal court located within The
      Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

            14.6.5 JURY TRIAL WAIVER. THE BORROWER, AGENT, AND EACH OF THE
      LENDERS MUTUALLY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE
      RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON THIS LOAN
      AGREEMENT, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LOAN AGREEMENT
      OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION
      HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS
      (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
      LIMITATION, ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS OR
      ACTIONS OF AGENT OR ANY LENDER RELATING TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE LOAN
      OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREE THAT NEITHER PARTY WILL
      SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY
      TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, EACH
      PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY
      LITIGATION ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, SPECULATIVE, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR
      CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL
      DAMAGES. THE BORROWER CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY
      OF AGENT OR ANY LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT AGENT
      OR ANY LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
      FOREGOING WAIVER. THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH
      OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO ENTER INTO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.


                                       67

      14.7 Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements
of the Borrower, or a Loan Party, herein or in any other Loan Document, or in
any notice, certificate, or other paper delivered by or on behalf of the
Borrower or a Loan Party pursuant hereto are significant and shall be deemed to
have been relied upon by Agent and each of the Lenders notwithstanding any
investigation made by Agent or any of the Lenders or on its behalf and shall
survive the delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of the Loans pursuant
thereto. No review or approval by Agent or the Lenders or any of their
representatives, of any opinion letters, certificates by professionals or other
item of any nature shall relieve the Borrower or anyone else of any of the
obligations, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of Borrower or a
Loan Party, or any one or more of them, under any one or more of the Loan
Documents.

      14.8 Cumulative Rights. All of the rights of Agent and the Lenders
hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents and any other agreement now
or hereafter executed in connection herewith or therewith, shall be cumulative
and may be exercised singly, together, or in such combination as Agent may
determine in its sole good faith judgment.

      14.9 Claims Against Agent or Lenders.

            14.9.1 Borrower Must Notify. The Agent and each of the Lenders shall
      not be in default under this Agreement, or under any other Loan Document,
      unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of the
      Borrower shall have been given to Agent and each of the Lenders within
      thirty (30) days after the subject Borrower first had actual Knowledge or
      actual notice of the occurrence of the event which Borrower alleges gave
      rise to such claim and Agent or any of the Lenders does not remedy or cure
      the default, if any there be, with reasonable promptness thereafter. Such
      actual Knowledge or actual notice shall refer to what was actually known
      by, or expressed in a written notification furnished to, any of the
      persons or officials referred to in Exhibit D as Authorized
      Representatives.

            14.9.2 Remedies. If it is determined by the final order of a court
      of competent jurisdiction, which is not subject to further appeal, that
      Agent or any of the Lenders has breached any of its obligations under the
      Loan Documents and has not remedied or cured the same with reasonable
      promptness following notice thereof, Agent's and each of the Lenders'
      responsibilities shall be limited to: (i) where the breach consists of the
      failure to grant consent or give approval in violation of the terms and
      requirements of a Loan Document, the obligation to grant such consent or
      give such approval and to pay the Borrower's reasonable costs and expenses
      including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
      disbursements in connection with such court proceedings; and (ii) the case
      of any such failure to grant such consent or give such approval, or in the
      case of any other such default by Agent or any of the Lenders, where it is
      also so determined that Agent or any of the Lenders acted in bad faith,
      the payment of any actual, direct, compensatory damages sustained by the
      Borrower as a result thereof plus the Borrower's reasonable costs and
      expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
      disbursements in connection with such court proceedings.

            14.9.3 Limitations. In no event, however, shall Agent and each of
      the Lenders be liable to the Borrower or to any Loan Party or anyone else
      for other damages such as, but not limited to, indirect, speculative,
      special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages whatever the nature
      of the breach by Agent or any of the Lenders of its obligations under this


                                       68
<PAGE>

      Loan Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents. In no event shall
      Agent or any of the Lenders be liable to the Borrower or to any Loan Party
      or anyone else unless a written notice specifically setting forth the
      claim of the Borrower shall have been given to Agent and each of the
      Lenders within the time period specified above.

      14.10 Regarding Consents. Except to the extent expressly provided herein,
any and all consents to be made hereunder by the Agent, Required Lenders, or
Lenders shall be in the discretion of the Party to whom consent rights are given
hereunder.

      14.11 Obligations Absolute. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable
law which cannot be waived, the Obligations of the Borrower and the obligations
of each Guarantor and the other Loan Parties under the Loan Documents shall be
joint and several, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid
strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents to which such Loan
Party is a party under all circumstances whatsoever, including, without
limitation, the existence of any claim, set off, defense or other right which
the Borrower or any Loan Party may have at any time against Agent or any of the
Lenders whether in connection with the Loan or any unrelated transaction.

      14.12 Table of Contents, Title and Headings. Any Table of Contents, the
titles and the headings of sections are not parts of this Loan Agreement or any
other Loan Document and shall not be deemed to affect the meaning or
construction of any of its or their provisions.

      14.13 Counterparts. This Loan Agreement and each other Loan Document may
be executed in several counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered
is an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. In
making proof of this agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account
for more than one such counterpart which is executed by the party against whom
enforcement of such loan agreement is sought.

      14.14 Satisfaction of Commitment. The Facility being established pursuant
to the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents is being made in
satisfaction of Agent's and each of the Lenders' obligations under the terms
letter dated March 7, 2006. The terms, provisions and conditions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents supersede the provisions of the terms
letter.

      14.15 Time Of the Essence. Time is of the essence of each provision of
this Agreement and each other Loan Document.

      14.16 No Oral Change. This Loan Agreement and each of the other Loan
Documents may only be amended, terminated, extended or otherwise modified by a
writing signed by the party against which enforcement is sought (except no such
writing shall be required for any party which, pursuant to a specific provision
of any Loan Document, is required to be bound by changes without such party's
assent). In no event shall any oral agreements, promises, actions, inactions,
knowledge, course of conduct, course of dealings or the like be effective to
amend, terminate, extend or otherwise modify this Loan Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents.

      14.17 Monthly Statements. While Agent may issue invoices or other
statements on a monthly or periodic basis (a "Statement"), it is expressly
acknowledged and agreed that: (i) the failure of Agent to issue any Statement on
one or more occasions shall not affect the Borrower's obligations to make
payments under the Loan Documents as and when due; (ii) the inaccuracy of any


                                       69
<PAGE>

Statement shall not be binding upon Lenders and so Borrower shall always remain
obligated to pay the full amount(s) required under the Loan Documents as and
when due notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any
Statement; (iii) all Statements are issued for information purposes only and
shall never constitute any type of offer, acceptance, modification, or waiver of
the Loan Documents or any of Lenders' rights or remedies thereunder; and (iv) in
no event shall any Statement serve as the basis for, or a component of, any
course of dealing, course of conduct, or trade practice which would modify,
alter, or otherwise affect the express written terms of the Loan Documents.
