2.    Payment and Performance by Guarantor.

- 3 -









Completion Costs,  to contest in good faith Administrative Agent’s determination of the Estimated Completion Costs provided that each of the following are satisfied: (1) Guarantor provides, from a Third Party Construction Expert (defined below), its own good faith estimate of the cost to pay for and/or perform, as applicable, the Guaranteed Obligations (the amount of such estimate, the “Guarantor Estimated Amount”), (2) if required by Administrative Agent, Guarantor pays to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) an amount equal to the Guarantor Estimated Amount (which amount shall be credited towards Guarantor’s obligations hereunder) and (3) Administrative Agent’s rights to seek a future claim against Guarantor hereunder are not otherwise materially and adversely impacted as a result thereof (provided that, to the extent that (A) such material and adverse impact could be fully avoided in accordance with applicable laws and in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent by delivery of a waiver by Guarantor and (B) Guarantor duly provides such waiver described in clause (A), then the condition under this subclause (3) shall be deemed satisfied). If each of the foregoing conditions (1) through (3) are satisfied in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence and any disagreement remains between Administrative  Agent and Guarantor as to the Estimated Completion Costs, then Administrative Agent shall have the right to challenge the Guarantor Estimated Amount by way of (x) determination by a Third Party Construction Expert mutually agreed to in good faith by Administrative Agent and Guarantor, (y) arbitration, or (z) judicial proceeding, such course of action described in (x), (y) or (z) to be selected by Administrative Agent (the “Dispute Resolution Method”) and upon final determination by the applicable Dispute Resolution Method of the cost to pay for and/or perform, as applicable, the Guaranteed Obligations (the “Dispute Resolution Amount”), (A) the Dispute Resolution Amount shall be binding on the parties hereto and (B) Guarantor shall pay any shortage (or, to the extent Administrative Agent did not previously require Guarantor to pay Administrative Agent an amount equal to the Guarantor Estimated Amount pursuant to clause (2) above, an amount equal to the Dispute Resolution Amount) to Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders). Guarantor shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses Administrative Agent and/or Lenders in connection with any contest of Administrative Agent’s initial determination of the Estimated Completion Costs (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorney’s fees) (the “Contest Expenses”) in the event that any of the following are true: (A) the Guarantor Estimated Amount is more than $1,000,000 lower than the Dispute Resolution Amount, (B) the Guarantor Estimated Amount is more than 5% lower than the Dispute Resolution Amount, or (C) at the time of contest, Guarantor was in material default of any of its obligations under this Guaranty for which Guarantor had received written notice, if written notice thereof was expressly required pursuant to the terms hereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Guarantor be entitled to any refund of any amounts paid pursuant to clause (2) above in the event that the Dispute Resolution Amount is less than that previously paid by Guarantor. As used above, “Third Party Construction Expert” shall mean an independent construction consultant that (A) is not an Affiliate of Borrower, Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) is a reputable, nationally or regionally recognized construction consultant having at least five (5) years’ experience in advising on construction projects similar in scope, size and geographic location to the Permitted Alterations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if (x) Guarantor makes a payment to Mezzanine A Lender under Section 2(a) of the Mezzanine A Completion Guaranty (defined below), or (y) Guarantor makes a payment to Mezzanine B Lender under Section 2(a) of the Mezzanine B Loan Completion Guaranty (defined below), such payment(s) (other than any Contest Expenses (as defined in the Completion Guaranty and Mezzanine B Loan Completion 


- 4 -









Guaranty, as applicable)) will be given appropriate credit under this Guaranty as if given for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders.  As used in this Section 2(a), the following terms shall have the following meaning:

(ii)    “Mezzanine B Loan Completion Guaranty” shall mean that certain Mezzanine B Loan Completion Guaranty dated as of the date hereof by and between Brookfield DTLA Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company in favor of Citigroup Global Markets Realty Corp. (as the same may be amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time).
(b)    Following the occurrence of a Trigger Event, in the event Guarantor fails to diligently undertake the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or pay the Estimated Completion Costs, then Administrative Agent may avail itself, at Administrative Agent’s option, of the following remedies (in addition to any other remedies available to Administrative Agent or Lenders under applicable law and in accordance with the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, this Guaranty)): 
(i)    the right, either before, during or after commencing foreclosure or sale proceedings against all or any portion of the Property, as the case may be, and before, during or after pursuing any other right or remedy against Borrower or Guarantor, to perform any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations (but Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to do so and  may suspend or terminate any such actions at any time, without completion) by or through any agent, contractor or subcontractor of its selection, with such changes or modifications in the applicable plans and specifications and in any contracts or subcontracts (including termination thereof) relating thereto, all as Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems proper, so long as such changes or modifications do not add more than de minimis costs (unless such modifications are required pursuant to applicable law), and, subject to the penultimate paragraph of Section 1 above, Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty shall not be in any way limited by such actions. Guarantor shall pay or reimburse Administrative Agent from time to time within five (5) Business Days of written demand by Administrative Agent for all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent under this Section 2(b)(i) and if such amounts are not paid within such five (5) Business Day period, Guarantor shall pay interest on all such costs and expenses from the date Administrative Agent makes such written demand upon Guarantor at the Default Rate. Furthermore, Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to protect or insure any collateral for the Loan, nor shall Lender have any obligation to perfect Lender’s security interest in any collateral for the Loan.  During the course of any Work undertaken by Administrative Agent, Guarantor shall pay on demand any amounts justly due to contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers and for permits and licenses necessary or desirable in connection therewith.  None of Guarantor’s obligations in connection with any Work undertaken by Administrative Agent or any 


- 5 -









other party on behalf of Administrative Agent shall be affected by any errors or omissions of Borrower’s construction manager, general contractor or architects, Administrative Agent’s consulting architect, or any subcontractor or agent or employee of any of the foregoing in the design, supervision, and performance of the Work, it being understood that such risk is assumed by Guarantor. 
(ii)    Administrative Agent may, without first requiring performance by Borrower or exhausting any or all security for the Loan, commence a lawsuit against Guarantor to compel Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Guaranty and/or to recover damages under this Guaranty for all actual loss, cost, damage, injury and expense (excluding special, consequential, indirect, punitive or speculative damages, unless actually paid to a third party) sustained or incurred by Administrative Agent as a consequence of the failure of Guarantor to perform its obligations hereunder together with any interest thereon at the Default Rate, excluding costs and expenses arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or Lenders.  Subject to clause (d) below, Administrative Agent’s damages shall include (A) the costs of (x) correcting any construction defects prior to completion of the Work and/or (y) completing the Work, and (B) Administrative Agent 's reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys' fees and costs.  To the extent (1) Guarantor shall have any liability hereunder following the Trigger Date for correcting any construction defects pursuant to the preceding sentence and (2) Guarantor has a reasonable basis to believe that Borrower has a claim against a general contractor or architect for any such construction defects, then, at Guarantor’s written request and sole cost and expense, Administrative Agent shall, in good faith, reasonably cooperate with Guarantor to pursue a claim against such general contractor or architect and any amounts received as a result of such claim shall be credited towards any unpaid obligations of Guarantor hereunder (or paid to Guarantor if Guarantor had previously made a payment to Administrative Agent for the full amount Administrative Agent’s damages in respect of such defects). Administrative Agent need not perform any of the Work before commencing such a lawsuit.  Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept any offer of performance by Guarantor to perform work on the Work at any time after a Trigger Event, and no such offer shall constitute a defense to Administrative Agent’s claims for damages against Guarantor. GUARANTOR AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT (ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND THE LENDERS) EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE MEASURE OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE BASED ON THE COSTS OF COMPLETING THE WORK, NOT THE EXTENT TO WHICH COMPLETING THE WORK WOULD INCREASE THE VALUE OF THE PROPERTY. 
(c)    Satisfaction by Guarantor of any liability hereunder at any one time with respect to any default by Borrower shall not discharge Guarantor with respect to any other default by Borrower at any other time, it being the intent hereof that this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be continuing and may be enforced by Administrative Agent to the end that the Work shall be timely completed, lien free, without any loss, cost, expense, injury or liability of any kind to Administrative Agent.  Guarantor shall not have any right of recourse against Administrative Agent by reason of any action Administrative Agent may take or omit to 


- 6 -









take under the provisions of this Guaranty or under the provisions of any of the other Loan Documents. 
(d)    For purposes of determining any liability of Guarantor hereunder: (i) if, pursuant to Section 4.21 of the Loan Agreement, Borrower has deposited with Administrative Agent funds to secure Borrower’s obligations in connection with the Permitted Alterations, then such funds will be made available for, and applied to, the costs of the Permitted Alterations in accordance with Section 4.21 of the Loan Agreement and (ii) any builders risk or casualty insurance proceeds actually deposited with Administrative Agent will be made available on a timely basis and otherwise in accordance with disbursement procedures relating to insurance proceeds set forth the Loan Agreement for purposes of completing any Permitted Alterations, but only to the extent such proceeds are fairly allocable to damage to the Permitted Alterations.

(b)    Guarantor shall, upon written demand, pay the Guaranteed Obligations to Administrative Agent for the Benefit of Lenders from time to time.

(d)    In the event any payment of any Guaranteed Obligations by Borrower or any other Person to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders is held to constitute a preference, fraudulent transfer or other voidable payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or if for any other reason Administrative Agent and/or Lenders are required to refund such payment or pay the amount thereof to any other party, such payment by Borrower or any other party to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders shall not constitute a release of Guarantor from any liability hereunder and this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated (notwithstanding any prior release, surrender or discharge by Lender of this Guaranty or of Guarantor), as the case may be, with respect to, and this Guaranty shall apply to, any and all amounts so refunded by Administrative Agent and/or any Lender or paid by Administrative Agent and/or any Lender to another Person (which amounts shall constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations).

In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement or other debtor relief or insolvency proceedings involving Borrower as debtor, Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders shall have the right to prove its claim in any such proceeding so as to establish its rights hereunder and shall have the right to receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other custodian (whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred or be continuing under any of the Loan Documents), dividends and payments that are payable upon any obligation of Borrower to Guarantor now existing or hereafter arising, and to have all benefits of any security therefor, until the Debt has been indefeasibly paid in full.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Guarantor should receive any payment, claim or distribution that is prohibited as provided above in this Section, Guarantor shall promptly pay the same to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders, Guarantor hereby agreeing that it shall receive the payment, claim or distribution in trust for Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders and shall have absolutely no dominion over the same except to pay it promptly to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not restrict distributions by Borrower to equity owners of Borrower (including Guarantor), in the ordinary course of business and operations of the Property provided no Trigger Period exists; and
(d)    Guarantor shall promptly upon request of Administrative Agent from time to time execute such documents and perform such acts as Administrative Agent may reasonably require to evidence and perfect its interest and to permit or facilitate exercise of its rights under this Section.

10.    Invalidity of Certain Provisions. If any provision of this Guaranty or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall, for any reason and to any extent, be declared to be invalid or unenforceable, neither the remaining provisions of this Guaranty nor the application of such provision to any other Person or circumstance shall be affected thereby, and the remaining provisions of this Guaranty, or the applicability of such provision to other Persons or circumstances, as applicable, shall remain in effect and be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.
11.    Attorneys’ Fees, Costs and Expenses of Collection.  Guarantor shall pay within ten (10) Business Days after written demand all reasonable attorneys’ fees for outside counsel and all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders in the enforcement of or preservation of Administrative Agent’s and/or Lenders’ rights under this Guaranty including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees for outside counsel, out-of-pocket costs and expenses, investigation costs, and all court costs, whether or not suit is filed herein, or whether at maturity or by acceleration, or whether before or after maturity, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal, or whether in connection with the collection and enforcement of this Guaranty against any other Guarantor, if there be more than one.

13.    Controlling Agreement.  It is not the intention of Administrative Agent, Lenders or Guarantor to obligate Guarantor to pay interest in excess of that lawfully permitted to be paid by Guarantor under applicable Legal Requirements.

The provisions of this Section shall override and control all other provisions of this Guaranty and of any other agreement between Guarantor, Administrative Agent and Lenders.

Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have all rights, remedies and recourses afforded to Administrative Agent and Lenders by reason of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document or by law or equity or otherwise, and the same (a) shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Guarantor or others obligated for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, or against any one or more of them, or against any security or otherwise, at the sole discretion of Administrative Agent, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, it being agreed by Guarantor that the exercise of, discontinuance of the exercise of or failure to exercise any of such rights, remedies, or recourses shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy, or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be, nonexclusive.  No waiver of any default on the part of Guarantor or of any breach of any of the provisions of this Guaranty or of any other document shall be considered a waiver of any other or subsequent default or breach, and no delay or omission in exercising or enforcing the rights and powers granted herein or in any other document shall be construed as a waiver of such rights and powers, and no exercise or enforcement of any rights or powers hereunder or under any other document shall be held to exhaust such rights and powers, and every such right and power may be exercised from time to time.  The granting of any 


- 11 -









consent, approval or waiver by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders shall be limited to the specific instance and purpose therefor and shall not constitute consent or approval in any other instance or for any other purpose.  No notice to or demand on Guarantor in any case shall of itself entitle Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.  No provision of this Guaranty or any right, remedy or recourse of Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders with respect hereto, or any default or breach, can be waived, nor can this Guaranty or Guarantor be released or discharged in any way or to any extent, except specifically in each case by a writing intended for that purpose (and which refers specifically to this Guaranty) executed, and delivered to Guarantor, by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders.
16.    Subrogation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (a) Guarantor shall not have any right of subrogation in or under any of the Loan Documents or to participate in any way therein, or in any right, title or interest in and to any security or right of recourse for the Guaranteed Obligations, until indefeasible payment in full of the Debt, and (b) if Guarantor is or becomes an “insider” (as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) with respect to Borrower, then Guarantor hereby irrevocably and absolutely waives any and all rights of contribution, indemnification, reimbursement or any similar rights against Borrower with respect to this Guaranty (including any right of subrogation, except to the extent of collateral held by Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders), whether such rights arise under an express or implied contract or by operation of law.  It is the intention of the parties that Guarantor shall not be deemed to be a “creditor” (as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) of Borrower by reason of the existence of this Guaranty in the event that Borrower or Guarantor becomes a debtor in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code.  This waiver is given to induce Lenders to make the Loan to Borrower.
17.    Further Assurances.  Guarantor at Guarantor’s expense will promptly execute and deliver to Administrative Agent all such other and further documents, agreements, and instruments in compliance with or accomplishment of the agreements of Guarantor under this Guaranty reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, so long as Guarantor’s obligations are not increased and its rights are not decreased, in each case, other than to a de minimis extent.
18.    No Fiduciary Relationship.  The relationship between Administrative Agent, Lenders and Guarantor is solely that of lender and guarantor.  Neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders have a fiduciary or other special relationship with or duty to Guarantor and none is created hereby or may be inferred from any course of dealing or act or omission of Administrative Agent and/or Lenders.
19.    Interpretation.  If this Guaranty is signed by more than one Person as “Guarantor”, then the term “Guarantor” as used in this Guaranty shall refer to all such Persons jointly and severally, and all promises, agreements, covenants, waivers, consents, representations, warranties and other provisions in this Guaranty are made by and shall be binding upon each and every such undersigned Person, jointly and severally and Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders may pursue any Guarantor hereunder without being required (i) to pursue any other Guarantor hereunder or (ii) pursue rights and remedies under the Security Instruments and/or applicable Legal Requirements with respect to the Property or any other Loan Documents.

20.    Time of Essence.  Time shall be of the essence in this Guaranty with respect to all of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.
21.    Execution.  This Guaranty may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which, for all purposes, shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
22.    Entire Agreement.  This Guaranty embodies the entire agreement between Administrative Agent, Lenders and Guarantor with respect to the guaranty by Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations.  This Guaranty supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, if any, with respect to guaranty by Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations.  No condition or conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Guaranty exist.  This Guaranty shall be effective upon execution by Guarantor and delivery to Administrative Agent.  This Guaranty may not be modified, amended or superseded except in a writing signed by Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of Lenders) and Guarantor.  The Loan Documents represent the final agreement between the parties and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties.
23.    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  GUARANTOR, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS, HEREBY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, RELATING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THE LOAN, THE APPLICATION FOR THE LOAN, THIS GUARANTY, THE NOTE, THE SECURITY INSTRUMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR GUARANTOR.
24.    Consent to Jurisdiction.  Guarantor, Administrative Agent and the Lender each irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for itself and in respect of its property to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of New York over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of, or relating to, this Guaranty, and irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such state or federal court.  Guarantor, Administrative Agent and the Lender each irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court, and any claims that any such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum.  Final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon each such party and may be enforced in any court in which they are subject to jurisdiction, by a suit upon such judgment provided that service of process is effected upon Guarantor as provided in the Loan Documents or as otherwise permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.  Guarantor hereby releases, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, all errors and all rights of exemption, appeal, stay of execution, inquisition, and other rights to which Guarantor may otherwise be entitled under the laws of the United States of America or of any state of possession of the United States of America now in force and which may hereinafter be enacted.  The authority and power to appear for and enter judgment against Guarantor shall not be exhausted by one or more exercises thereof or by any imperfect exercise thereof and shall not be extinguished by any judgment entered pursuant thereto.  Such authority may be exercised on one

or more occasions or from time to time in the same or different jurisdiction as often as Administrative Agent shall deem necessary and desirable, for all of which this Guaranty shall be sufficient warrant.

Administrative Agent and Lenders agree promptly to notify Guarantor after any such set-off and application made by Administrative Agent and/or a Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
30.    Termination. This Guaranty shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) such time as the Debt has been indefeasibly paid in full, and there has expired the maximum possible period thereafter during which any payment made by Borrower or others to Lender with respect to the Loan could be deemed a preference under the Bankruptcy Code or (ii) subject to Borrower confirming in writing to Administrative Agent, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent (which may include, at Administrative Agent’s request, a modification to the Loan Documents reflecting the same), that Borrower waives the right to perform any additional Permitted Alteration either (A) the payment and/or performance in full of the Guaranteed Obligations or (B) the payment of all costs incurred in connection with the Work without any lien having been filed, and the expiration of the statutory mechanic’s lien period applicable to such work without any lien having been filed, provided, however, that if a lien is filed during such period (or after such period, but only if under applicable law such lien “relates back” to the date of the filing of any prior lien) then this Guaranty shall survive as to such claim of lien (and any other lien which may “relate back” as a result of the filing of such lien) until such claim is finally resolved and, if applicable, paid in full and such lien is discharged. 
31.    Confidentiality. All non‐public information obtained by Administrative Agent and Lender pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement shall be handled in accordance with Section 17.11(b) of the Loan Agreement.
