         ASSIGNOR WARRANTS that (i) Assignor is the sole owner of the entire
lessor's interest in the Leases; (ii) that the rent roll or occupancy schedule
attached as an exhibit to the application, in connection with the Loan, given by

the Leases are valid and enforceable and have not been altered, modified or
amended in any manner whatsoever except as herein set forth; (iv) none of the
Rents reserved in the Leases have been assigned or otherwise pledged or
hypothecated; (v) none of the Rents have been collected for more than one (1)
month in advance; (vi) Assignor has full power and authority to execute and
deliver this Assignment and the execution and delivery of this Assignment has
been duly authorized and does not conflict with or constitute a default under
any law, judicial order or other agreement affecting Assignor or the Mortgaged
Property; (vii) the premises demised under the Leases have been completed and
the tenants under the Leases have accepted the same and have taken possession of
the same on a rent-paying basis; and (viii) there exist no offsets or defenses
to the payment of any portion of the Rents.

         ASSIGNOR COVENANTS with Assignee that Assignor shall not, without the
prior written consent of Assignee, (a) lease all or any part of the Mortgaged
Property, (b) alter or change the terms of any Lease or cancel or terminate,
abridge or otherwise modify the terms of any Lease, (c) consent to any
assignment of or subletting under any Lease not in accordance with its terms,
(d) cancel, terminate, abridge or otherwise modify any guaranty of any Lease or
the terms thereof, (e) collect or accept prepayments of installments of Rents
for a period of more than one (1) month in advance or (f) further assign the
whole or any part of the Leases or the Rents.

         ASSIGNOR FURTHER COVENANTS with Assignee that, with respect to each

on the lessor's part to be fulfilled or performed under each Lease and not do or
permit to be done anything to impair the value of the Lease as security for the

require and (e) upon request, furnish Assignee with executed copies of all
Leases.

         THIS ASSIGNMENT is made on the following terms, covenants and
conditions:

         1. PRESENT ASSIGNMENT. Assignor does hereby absolutely and
unconditionally assign to Assignee Assignor's right, title and interest in all
current and future Leases and Rents, it being intended by Assignor that this
assignment constitutes a present, absolute and unconditional assignment and not
an assignment for additional security only. Such assignment to Assignee shall
not be construed to bind Assignee to the performance of any of the covenants,
conditions or provisions contained in any such Lease or otherwise to impose any
obligation upon Assignee. Assignor agrees to execute and deliver to Assignee
such additional instruments, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Assignee, as may hereinafter be requested by Assignee to further evidence and
confirm said assignment. Nevertheless, subject to the terms of this PARAGRAPH 1,
Assignee grants to Assignor a revocable license to operate and manage the
Mortgaged Property and to collect the Rents. Assignor shall hold the Rents or a
portion thereof sufficient



                                       2

                                                                Loan No. 3212525

to discharge all current sums due on the Loan for use in the payment of such
sums. Upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Mortgage), the license granted
to Assignor herein shall be automatically revoked by Assignee and Assignee shall
immediately be entitled to receive and apply all Rents, whether or not Assignee
enters upon and takes control of the Mortgaged Property. Assignee is hereby
granted and assigned by Assignor the right, at its option, upon the revocation
of the license granted herein to enter upon the Mortgaged Property in person, by
agent or by court-appointed receiver to collect the Rents. Any Rents collected
after the revocation of the license herein granted may be applied toward payment
of the Loan in such priority and proportion as Assignee, in its discretion,
shall deem proper. Notwithstanding the license granted to Assignor in this
Paragraph 1, if any Lease is terminated (including without limitation a
voluntary termination of the Lease approved by Assignee and a termination or
rejection of a Lease in a bankruptcy or other similar proceeding) and in
connection with such termination or rejection there is the payment of (i) a lump
sum settlement, (ii) a termination fee, premium or penalty, or (iii) any other
amount or amounts paid in conjunction with such termination (collectively and
singly, the "TERMINATION AMOUNT") then in such event, whether or not Assignor is
in default under the Note, the Mortgage, any other Loan Document or any Lease,
the Termination Amount shall be payable directly to Assignee and, at Assignee's
option, may be (x) applied to outstanding amounts due under the Loan, without
premium, or (y) held by Assignee as additional collateral securing the Note
until a new Lease or other collateral acceptable to Assignee in its reasonable
discretion is substituted for the terminated Lease. Nothing herein shall be
deemed approval by Assignee of the termination of any Lease or the payment of
any Termination Amount.

         2. REMEDIES OF ASSIGNEE. Upon or at any time after an Event of Default,
Assignee may, at its option, without waiving such Event of Default, without
notice and without regard to the adequacy of the security for the Loan, either
in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by
a receiver appointed by a court, enforce its interest in the Leases and Rents
and take possession of the Mortgaged Property and have, hold, manage, lease and
operate the Mortgaged Property on such terms and for such period of time as
Assignee may deem proper and either with or without taking possession of the
Mortgaged Property in its own name, demand, sue for or otherwise collect and
receive all Rents, including those past due and unpaid with full power to make
from time to time all alterations, renovations, repairs or replacements thereto
or thereof as may seem proper to Assignee and may apply the Rents to the payment
of the following in such order and proportion as Assignee in its sole discretion
may determine, any law, custom or use to the contrary notwithstanding: (a) all
reasonable expenses of managing and securing the Mortgaged Property, including,
without being limited thereto, the salaries, fees and wages of a managing agent
and such other employees or agents as Assignee may deem necessary or desirable
and all reasonable expenses of operating and maintaining the Mortgaged Property,
including, without being limited thereto, all taxes, charges, claims,
assessments, water charges, sewer rents and any other liens, and premiums for
all insurance which Assignee may deem necessary or desirable, and the reasonable
cost of all alterations, renovations, repairs or replacements, and all expenses
incident to taking and retaining possession of the Mortgaged Property; and (b)
the Loan, together with all costs and attorneys' fees. In addition to the rights
which Assignee may have herein, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Assignee, at its option, may either require Assignor to pay monthly in advance
to Assignee, or any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, the fair and
reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of such part of the Mortgaged
Property as may be in possession of Assignor or may require Assignor to vacate
and surrender possession of the Mortgaged Property to Assignee or to such
receiver and, in default thereof, Assignor may be evicted by summary proceedings
or otherwise. For purposes of Paragraphs 1 and 2, 


                                       3

                                                                Loan No. 3212525

Assignor grants to Assignee its irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with an
interest, to take any and all of the aforementioned actions and any or all other
actions designated by Assignee for the proper management and preservation of the
Mortgaged Property. The exercise by Assignee of the option granted it in this
Paragraph 2 and the collection of the Rents and the application thereof as
herein provided shall not be considered a waiver of any default by Assignor
under the Note, the Mortgage, the Leases, this Assignment or the Loan Documents.

         3. NO LIABILITY OF ASSIGNEE. Assignee shall not be liable for any loss
sustained by Assignor resulting from Assignee's failure to let the Mortgaged
Property after an Event of Default or from any other act or omission of Assignee
in managing the Mortgaged Property after default unless such loss is caused by
the willful misconduct and bad faith of Assignee. Assignee shall not be
obligated to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the
Leases or under or by reason of this Assignment and Assignor shall, and hereby
agrees to, indemnify Assignee for and hold Assignee harmless from, any and all
liability, loss or damage which may or might be incurred under the Leases or
under or by reason of this Assignment and from any and all claims and demands
whatsoever, including the defense of any such claims or demands which may be
asserted against Assignee by reason of any alleged obligations and undertakings
on its part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants or agreements
contained in the Leases. Should Assignee incur any such liability, the amount
thereof, including costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees, shall be
secured hereby and by the Mortgage and the Loan Documents and Assignor shall
reimburse Assignee therefor immediately upon demand and upon the failure of
Assignor so to do Assignee may, at its option, declare all sums secured hereby,
the Note, and the Mortgage and the Loan Documents immediately due and payable.
This Assignment shall not operate to place any obligation or liability for the
control, care, management or repair of the Mortgaged Property upon Assignee, nor
for the carrying out of any of the terms and conditions of the Leases; nor shall
it operate to make Assignee responsible or liable for any waste committed on the
Mortgaged Property by the tenants or any other parties, or for any dangerous or
defective condition of the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation,
the presence of any Hazardous Materials (as defined in the Mortgage), or for any
negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Mortgaged
Property resulting in loss or injury or death to any tenant, licensee, employee
or stranger.

         4. NOTICE TO LESSEES. Assignor hereby authorizes and directs the
lessees named in the Leases or any other or future lessees or occupants of the
Mortgaged Property upon receipt from Assignee of written notice to the effect
that Assignee is then the holder of the Mortgage and that a default exists
thereunder or under this Assignment, the Note or the other Loan Documents to pay
over to Assignee all Rents and to continue so to do until otherwise notified by
Assignee.

         5. OTHER SECURITY. Assignee may take or release other security for the
payment of the Loan, release any party primarily or secondarily liable therefor
and apply any other security held by it to the reduction or satisfaction of the
Loan without prejudice to any of its rights under this Assignment.

         6. OTHER REMEDIES. Nothing contained in this Assignment and no act done
or omitted by Assignee pursuant to the power and rights granted to Assignee
hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver by Assignee of its rights and remedies
under the Note, the Mortgage or the Loan Documents and this Assignment is made
and accepted without prejudice to any of the rights and remedies possessed by


                                       4

                                                                Loan No. 3212525

Assignee under the terms thereof. The right of Assignee to collect the Loan and
to enforce any other security therefor held by it may be exercised by Assignee
either prior to, simultaneously with, or subsequent to any action taken by it
hereunder.

         7. NO MORTGAGEE IN POSSESSION. Nothing herein contained shall be
construed as constituting Assignee a "mortgagee in possession" in the absence of
the taking of actual possession of the Mortgaged Property by Assignee. In the
exercise of the powers herein granted Assignee, no liability shall be asserted
or enforced against Assignee, all such liability being expressly waived and
released by Assignor.

         8. CONFLICT OF TERMS. In case of any conflict between the terms of this
Assignment and the terms of the Mortgage, the terms of the Mortgage shall
prevail.

         9. NO ORAL CHANGE. This Assignment and any provisions hereof may not be
modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally,
or by any act or failure to act on the part of Assignor or Assignee, but only by
an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom the enforcement of any
modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is
sought.

         10. CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. Unless the context clearly indicates a
contrary intent or unless otherwise specifically provided herein, words used in

Note, the Mortgage, this Assignment and the other Loan Documents; whenever the
context may require, any pronouns used herein shall include the corresponding
masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns and pronouns
shall include the plural and vice versa.

         11. NON-WAIVER. The failure of Assignee to insist upon strict
performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of
this Assignment. Assignor shall not be relieved of Assignor's obligations
hereunder by reason of (i) failure of Assignee to comply with any request of
Assignor or any other party to take any action to enforce any of the provisions
hereof or of the Mortgage, the Note or the other Loan Documents, (ii) the
release, regardless of consideration, of the whole or any part of the Mortgaged
Property, or (iii) any agreement or stipulation by Assignee extending the time
of payment or otherwise modifying or supplementing the terms of this Assignment,
the Note, the Mortgage or the Other Security Documents. Assignee may resort for
the payment of the Loan to any other security held by Assignee in such order and
manner as Assignee, in its discretion, may elect. Assignee may take any action
to recover the Loan, or any portion thereof, or to enforce any covenant hereof
without prejudice to the right of Assignee thereafter to enforce its rights
under this Assignment. The rights of Assignee under this Assignment shall be
separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the

others. No act of Assignee shall be construed as an election to proceed under
any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision.

         12. INAPPLICABLE PROVISIONS. If any term, covenant or condition of this
Assignment is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, this

of duplicate originals and each such duplicate original shall be deemed to be an
original.

         14. GOVERNING LAW. This Assignment shall be governed and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State in which the real property encumbered by
the Mortgage is located.

         15. TERMINATION OF ASSIGNMENT. Upon payment in full of the Loan and the

administrators, successors and assigns and any subsequent owner of the Mortgaged
Property.
