The Borrower shall be paid a base fee of $65,217 per Liquidation Release
Property at the closing of each Liquidation Release Property sale. The
cumulative base fee for all of the Liquidation Release Properties is $3,000,000.
If the Liquidation Release Properties are sold by the dates set forth in the
above table, the Borrower shall also be paid an incentive fee of 10% times the
positive difference, if any, of the aggregate Net Liquidation Price received for
all of the Liquidation Release Properties less the "Incentive Fee Base" set
forth in the above table and as determined in accordance with Section 2.8(c);
provided, however, that the Incentive Base Fee amounts shall be increased by all
amounts advanced after the date hereof by the Lender under the Transaction
Documents other than advances of principal and interest. For example, if the
last Liquidation Release Property is sold after December 1, 2004 but prior to
January 1, 2005, and the aggregate Net Liquidation Price received for all of
Liquidation Release Properties is $122,000,000, then the incentive fee would be
$95,914.30 [i.e., ($122,000,000 minus $121,040,857) * 10%].
