from and after the date of this Pledge Agreement and until the Obligations are
paid in full:

     (a) If Pledgor shall, as a result of its ownership of the Pledged
     Interests, become entitled to receive or shall receive any equity or other
     ownership interest, option or rights, whether in addition to, in
     substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for any of the Pledged
     Interests, or otherwise in respect thereof, Pledgor shall accept the same
     as Mezzanine Lender's agent, hold the same in trust for Mezzanine Lender
     and deliver the same forthwith to Mezzanine Lender in the exact form
     received, duly endorsed by Pledgor to Mezzanine Lender, if required,
     together with an undated assignment or power covering such certificate,
     duly executed in blank and with, if Mezzanine Lender so requests, signature
     guaranteed, to be held by Mezzanine Lender hereunder as additional Pledge
     Collateral security for the Obligations. Any sums paid upon or in respect
     of the Pledged Interests upon the liquidation or dissolution of Property
     Owner shall be paid over to Mezzanine Lender to be applied against the
     Obligations in such order and priority as may be determined by Mezzanine
     Lender (and otherwise subject to the terms of the Mezzanine Loan
     Agreement), and in case any distribution of capital shall be made on or in
     respect of the Pledged Interests or any property shall be distributed upon
     or with respect to the Pledged Interests pursuant to the recapitalization
     or reclassification of the capital of Property Owner or pursuant to

                                        5
<Page>

     the reorganization of Property Owner, the property so distributed shall be
     delivered to Mezzanine Lender to be held by it, subject to the terms
     hereof, as additional Pledge Collateral security for the Obligations. If
     any sums of money or property so paid or distributed in respect of the
     Pledged Interests shall be received by Pledgor, then Pledgor shall, until
     such money or property is paid or delivered to Mezzanine Lender, hold such
     money or property in trust for Mezzanine Lender, segregated from other
     funds of Pledgor as additional Pledge Collateral security for the
     Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in this Pledge Agreement to the
     contrary, as long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
     continuing, Mezzanine Borrower shall be permitted to make cash
     distributions (collectively, "PERMITTED DISTRIBUTIONS") permitted by the
     Mezzanine Loan Agreement.

     (b) Without the prior written consent of Mezzanine Lender and except for
     the Permitted Transfers under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement, Pledgor will
     not, directly or indirectly (i) vote to enable, or take any other
     affirmative action to permit, Property Owner to issue any interests or
     shares, as applicable, or to issue any other securities convertible into or
     granting the right to purchase or exchange for any interests of the
     Property Owner, or (ii) Transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of, or
     grant any option with respect to, the Pledge Collateral, or (iii)
     affirmatively create, incur or permit to exist any Lien or option in favor
     of, or any claim of any Person with respect to, any of the Pledge
     Collateral, or any interest therein, except for the lien provided for by
     this Pledge Agreement. Pledgor will defend the right, title and interest of
     Mezzanine Lender in and to the Pledge Collateral against the claims and
     demands of all Persons whomsoever.

     (c) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of
     Mezzanine Lender, Pledgor will promptly and duly execute and deliver such
     further instruments and documents and take such further actions as
     Mezzanine Lender may reasonably request for the purposes of obtaining,
     maintaining or preserving the full benefits of this Pledge Agreement and of
     the rights and powers herein granted. If any amount payable under or in
     connection with any of the Pledge Collateral shall be or become evidenced
     by any promissory note, other instrument or chattel paper, such note,
     instrument or chattel paper shall be immediately delivered to Mezzanine
     Lender, duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to Mezzanine Lender, to be
     held as Pledge Collateral pursuant to this Pledge Agreement.

     (d) Pledgor agrees to pay, and to indemnify and save Mezzanine Lender
     harmless from, any and all losses, costs and liabilities (including,
     without limitation, attorneys' fees and costs) with respect to, or
     resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or
     other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect
     to any of the Pledge Collateral or in connection with any of the
     transactions contemplated by this Pledge Agreement.

                                        6

     (e) Pledgor shall not (and Mezzanine Lender does not authorize Pledgor to)
     make any sales, leases or licenses of any of the Pledge Collateral or grant
     any other security interest in any of the Pledge Collateral.

     (f) Pledgor shall not be permitted to amend the Operating Agreement or the
     Certificate of Formation of Pledgor or the Property Owner except as
     otherwise set forth in Section 6.1(a) of the Mezzanine Loan Agreement.

     (g) Pledgor shall perform all of its obligations under the Operating
     Agreement in all material respects.

     5.   CASH DIVIDENDS; VOTING RIGHTS. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, Pledgor shall be permitted to exercise all
voting rights with respect to the Pledged Interests, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no
vote shall be cast or other action taken which would result in a material
violation of any provision of this Pledge Agreement or the Mortgage Loan
Documents.

     (b)  Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
Pledgor shall be permitted to receive and use (including making distribution of)
Permitted Distributions. Any and all cash dividends or distributions received by
Pledgor after Mezzanine Lender delivers to Pledgor written notice of an Event of
Default, shall be held in trust for Mezzanine Lender as provided herein and,
unless Mezzanine Lender shall otherwise agree in writing, shall be paid to
Mezzanine Lender for application to the Obligations within one (1) Business Day
after receipt of such written notice by Pledgor.

     6.   RIGHTS OF MEZZANINE LENDER. (a) If an Event of Default shall occur and
becontinuing, Mezzanine Lender shall have the right to receive any and all
distributions of property and any and all amounts paid in respect of the Pledged
Interests, in each case, from and after the occurrence of such Event of Default,
and make application thereof to the Obligations, in such order as Mezzanine
Lender, in its sole discretion, may elect. If an Event of Default shall occur
and be continuing, then all such Pledged Interests at Mezzanine Lender's option
shall be registered in the name of Mezzanine Lender or its nominee, and
Mezzanine Lender or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting and other
rights pertaining to such Pledged Interests and (y) any and all rights of
conversion, exchange, subscription and any other rights, privileges or options
pertaining to such Pledged Interests as if it were the absolute owner thereof
(including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and
all of the Pledged Interests upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization,
recapitalization or other fundamental change in the organizational structure of
Property Owner, or upon the exercise by Pledgor or Mezzanine Lender of any
right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Interests, and in
connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the
Pledged Interests with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or
other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as it may determine), all
without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but
Mezzanine Lender shall have no duty

                                        7
<Page>

to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for
any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

     (b) The rights of Mezzanine Lender hereunder shall not be conditioned or
contingent upon the pursuit by Mezzanine Lender of any right or remedy against
Property Owner or against any other Person which may be or become liable in
respect of all or any part of the Obligations or against any other Pledge
Collateral security therefor, guarantee thereof or right of offset with respect
thereto. Mezzanine Lender shall not be liable for any failure to demand, collect
or realize upon all or any part of the Pledge Collateral or for any delay in
doing so, nor shall it be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of
any Pledge Collateral upon the request of Property Owner or any other Person or
to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Pledge Collateral or any
part thereof. Pledgor waives any right it may have to require Mezzanine Lender
to pursue any third party for any of the Obligations.

     7.   REMEDIES. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing,
Mezzanine Lender may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies
granted in this Pledge Agreement, the other Mezzanine Loan Documents and in any
other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the
Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Mezzanine Lender, without demand of
performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of
any kind (except any notice required by the Mezzanine Loan Agreement or
applicable law or referred to herein) to or upon Pledgor, Property Owner or any
other Person (all and each of which demands, presentments, protests,
advertisements or notices or other defenses, are hereby waived), may in such
circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the
Pledge Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, assign, give
option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Pledge
Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one
or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, in the over-the-counter
market, at any exchange, broker's board or office of Mezzanine Lender or
elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such
prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without
assumption of any credit risk. Mezzanine Lender shall have the right upon any
such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such
private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Pledge
Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Property Owner,
which right or equity is hereby waived or released. Mezzanine Lender shall apply
any Proceeds from time to time held by it and the net proceeds of any such
collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after
deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or
incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Pledge Collateral or in any
way relating to the Pledge Collateral or the rights of Mezzanine Lender
hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs,
to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as
Mezzanine Lender may elect, and only after such application and after the
payment by Mezzanine Lender of

                                        8
<Page>

any other amount required by any provision of applicable law, including, without
limitation, the Code, need Mezzanine Lender account for the surplus, if any, to
Pledgor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Pledgor waives all claims,
damages and demands it may acquire against Mezzanine Lender arising out of the
exercise by Mezzanine Lender of any of its rights hereunder, except for any
claims, damages and demands it may have against Mezzanine Lender arising from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mezzanine Lender. Notice of a
proposed sale or other disposition of Pledge Collateral shall be deemed to be a
reasonable notification if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or
other disposition. Mezzanine Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency if
the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of Pledge Collateral are
insufficient to pay the Obligations and the reasonable fees and costs of any
attorneys employed by Mezzanine Lender to enforce its rights and remedies
hereunder. Mezzanine Lender may comply with any applicable state or federal law
requirements in connection with a disposition of the Pledge Collateral and
compliance therewith will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial
reasonableness of any sale of the Pledge Collateral. Mezzanine Lender may sell
the Pledge Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Pledge Collateral.
Mezzanine Lender may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like,
and such disclaimer shall not be deemed adversely to affect the commercial
reasonableness of any sale of the Pledge Collateral. If Mezzanine Lender sells
any of the Pledge Collateral upon credit, Pledgor will be credited only with
payments actually made by the purchaser received by Pledgor and applied to the
indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the
Pledge Collateral, Mezzanine Lender may recall the Pledge Collateral and Pledgor
shall be credited with the proceeds of any resale thereof following payment by
the new purchaser. In the event Mezzanine Lender purchases any of the Pledge
Collateral being sold, Mezzanine Lender may pay for the Pledge Collateral by
crediting some or all of the Obligations.

     8.   PRIVATE SALES. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing:

     (a) Property Owner and Pledgor recognize that Mezzanine Lender may be
     unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Interests, by
     reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as
     amended and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be
     compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted
     group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to
     acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a
     view to the distribution or resale thereof. Property Owner and Pledgor
     acknowledge and agree that any such private sale may result in prices and
     other terms less favorable to Mezzanine Lender than if such sale were a
     public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such
     private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable
     manner. Mezzanine Lender shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of
     any of the Pledged Interests for the period of time necessary to permit
     Property Owner to

                                        9
<Page>

     register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933,
     as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if Property
     Owner would agree to do so.

     (b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Pledgor
     further agrees to use reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all such
     other acts as may be reasonably requested to make any sale or sales of all
     or any portion of the Pledged Interests pursuant to this paragraph 8 valid
     and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable
     requirements of law. Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the
     covenants contained in this paragraph 8 will cause irreparable injury to
     Mezzanine Lender, that Mezzanine Lender has no adequate remedy at law in
     respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant
     contained in this paragraph 8 shall be specifically enforceable against
     Pledgor, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Pledgor
     hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for
     specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default
     has occurred under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement.

     9.   LIMITATION ON DUTIES REGARDING PLEDGE COLLATERAL. Pledgor has the risk
of loss of the Pledge Collateral. Mezzanine Lender's sole duty with respect to
the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Pledge Collateral in
its possession shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Mezzanine Lender
deals with similar securities and property for its own account. Neither
Mezzanine Lender nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall
be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Pledge
Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell
or otherwise dispose of any Pledge Collateral upon the request of Pledgor or
otherwise.

     10.  UCC FINANCING STATEMENTS. Pledgor authorizes Mezzanine Lender from
time to time to file UCC financing statements, continuation statements and any
and all other financing statements necessary or desirable to evidence, perfect
or continue the lien and security interest in the Pledge Collateral granted by
Pledgor to Mezzanine Lender pursuant to this Pledge Agreement. Such filings
shall be made in any and all jurisdictions required by Mezzanine Lender.

     11.  CERTAIN UNDERSTANDINGS OF PARTIES; REGISTRATION OF PLEDGE; CONTROL OF
PLEDGED PLEDGE COLLATERAL, ETC. (a) (i) The parties acknowledge and agree that

     (b) REGISTRATION OF PLEDGE; CONTROL OF PLEDGE COLLATERAL. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, to better assure the perfection of the security interest of
Mezzanine Lender in the Pledged Partnership Interests, concurrently with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, Pledgor shall send written
instructions in the form of EXHIBIT B hereto to each issuer thereof (the
"ISSUER"), and shall cause the Issuer to, and the Issuer shall, deliver to
Mezzanine Lender the Confirmation Statement and Instruction Agreement in the
form of EXHIBIT C hereto pursuant to which the Issuer will confirm that it has
registered the pledge effected by this Agreement on its books and agrees to
comply with the instructions of Mezzanine Lender in respect of the Pledged
Partnership Interests without further consent of Pledgor or any other Person.
Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph neither the written instructions nor
the Confirmation Statement and Instruction Agreement shall be construed as
expanding the rights of Mezzanine Lender to give instructions with respect to
the Pledge Collateral beyond such rights set forth in this Agreement. From time
to time, Pledgor shall promptly provide replacement written instructions in the
form of EXHIBIT B hereto to each Issuer and shall cause the Issuer to, and the
Issuer shall, deliver to Mezzanine Lender the Confirmation Statement and
Instruction Agreement in the form of EXHIBIT C to each assignee or Pledge
Collateral assignee of Mezzanine Lender, as reasonably requested by Mezzanine
Lender.

     12.  POWERS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST. All authorizations and agencies and
powers herein contained with respect to the Pledge Collateral are irrevocable
and coupled with an interest.

     13.  SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Pledge Agreement which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     14.  PARAGRAPH HEADINGS.  The paragraph headings used in this Pledge
Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the
construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

     15.  NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. Mezzanine Lender shall not by any act
(except by a written instrument pursuant to paragraph 16 hereof) be deemed to
have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any default
or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof or granted any right
of indulgence or any right of delay. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in
exercising, on the part of Mezzanine Lender, any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of
any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A
waiver by Mezzanine Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion
shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Mezzanine Lender
would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein
provided

                                       11
