LOAN TERMS
Section 2.1.    The Loans and Notes.
(1)    Loans.  Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make term loans to Borrower in Dollars in a principal amount up to but not exceeding the aggregate amount of up to Forty Two Million Dollars ($42,000,000.00).  The Loans shall be funded in one advance and repaid in accordance with this Agreement.  The initial advance of the Loans, in the aggregate amount of Forty Two Million Dollars ($42,000,000.00), shall be made upon Borrower’s satisfaction of the conditions to the initial advance described in Schedule 2.1.  The Loans are not revolving credit loans, and Borrower is not entitled to any readvances of any portion of a Loan which it may (or is otherwise required to) prepay pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.
(2)    Notes. The Loans shall be evidenced by (i) an amended and restated promissory note of Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1, payable to Lender in the principal amount of $35,168,536.00 and secured by the Mortgages encumbering the Fordham Parcel, the Webster Parcel, the Lawrence Parcel, the Jersey City and the Linden Parcel, and otherwise duly completed; and (ii) a promissory note of Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2, payable to Lender in the principal amount of $6,831,464.00 and secured by the Mortgage encumbering the Ridgewood Parcel.  The Notes are made by Borrower in replacement and increase, but not in novation or discharge, of its March 17, 2008 Promissory Note in the original principal amount of $41,500,000.00 payable to the order of Lender.
Section 2.2.    Interest Rate; Late Charge.  During each Interest Period, the outstanding principal balance of the Loans (including any amounts added to principal under the Loan Documents) shall bear interest at a rate of interest (the “Contract Rate”) equal to the greater of (1) four and 15/100 percent (4.15%) per annum in excess of the Libor Rate in effect for such Interest Period, or (2) four and 65/100 percent (4.65%) per annum.  Interest owing for each month shall be computed on the basis of a fraction, the denominator of which is three hundred sixty (360) and the numerator of which is the actual number of days elapsed from the first day of such month (or, for the initial advance, from the date of such advance).  Principal and other amortization payments shall be applied to the Loan balance as and when actually received.  If Borrower fails to pay any installment of interest or principal within five (5) days after the date on which the same is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender a late charge on such past‐due amount, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to five percent (5%) of such amount, but not in excess of the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law.  The foregoing late charge is intended to compensate Lender for the expenses incident to handling any such delinquent payment and for the losses incurred by Lender as a result of such delinquent payment.  Borrower and Lender agree that, considering all of the circumstances existing on the date this Agreement is executed, the late charge represents a reasonable estimate of the costs and losses Lender will incur by reason of late payment.  Borrower and Lender further agree that proof of actual losses would be costly, inconvenient, impracticable and extremely difficult to fix.  Acceptance of the late charge

Commencing on September 1, 2012, and continuing on the first day of each month until all amounts due under the Loan Documents are paid in full, Borrower shall make monthly principal amortization payments in accordance with this Section 2.3(2), which payments shall be applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Loans as and when actually received.  Lender shall calculate the total amount of principal payments payable for such Loan Year based upon a 30-year amortization schedule, an amortization period which begins on September 1, 2011, a fixed interest rate equal to the Contract Rate in effect as of August 1 of such Loan Year, and the outstanding principal balance of the Loans as of August 1 of such Loan Year.  The monthly amortization payment for any Loan Year shall equal the total amount of principal payments payable for such Loan Year (calculated as set forth above) divided by twelve.  Lender’s determination of the amount of the monthly amortization payments to be made by Borrower under this Agreement shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(3)    Maturity.  On the Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and any other amounts due under the Loan Documents.
(4)    Lockout/Prepayment.  The Loans are closed to prepayment, in whole or in part, through February 29, 2012 (the “Lockout Period”).

If any of the Loans is accelerated during the Lockout Period for any reason other than casualty or condemnation, Borrower shall pay to Lender, in addition to all other amounts outstanding under the Loan Documents, a prepayment premium equal to five percent (5%) of the outstanding balance of such Loan plus the Spread Maintenance Amount.  If any of the Loans is accelerated during the Prepayment Premium Period for any reason other than casualty or condemnation, Borrower shall pay to Lender the Spread Maintenance Amount.
(5)    Application of Payments.

Prepayments of principal, if permitted or accepted, shall be applied against amounts owing in inverse order of maturity.
(6)    Repayment Fee.  In addition to all other sums due under the Loan Documents, Borrower shall pay to Lender a repayment fee in the amount of One Hundred Eighty-Nine Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($189,000.00) (the “Repayment Fee”), due upon repayment of the Loans, the Maturity Date, or any earlier date on which the Loans are required to be paid in full, by acceleration or otherwise, under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, provided, however, that payment of the Repayment Fee shall be waived by Lender if the Loans are refinanced with Lender; Borrower expressly acknowledging and agreeing that Lender has made no commitment and has no obligation, express or implied, to provide such refinancing, and that any such refinancing would be subject to Lender’s approval in its sole and absolute 

10






discretion.

INSURANCE, CONDEMNATION, AND IMPOUNDS
Section 3.1.    Insurance.  Borrower shall maintain insurance as follows:
(1)    Casualty; Business Interruption.  Borrower shall keep the Project insured against damage by fire and the other hazards covered by a standard extended coverage and all‐risk insurance policy for the full insurable value thereof on a replacement cost claim recovery basis (without reduction for depreciation or co‐insurance and without any exclusions or reduction of policy limits for acts of domestic and foreign terrorism or other specified action/inaction), and shall maintain boiler and machinery insurance, acts of domestic and foreign terrorism endorsement coverage and such other casualty insurance as reasonably required by Lender.  Lender reserves the right to require from time to time the following additional insurance:  flood, earthquake/sinkhole, windstorm and/or building law or ordinance.  Borrower shall keep the Project insured against loss by flood if the Project is located currently or at any time in the future in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 (as such acts may from time to time be amended) in an amount at least equal to the lesser of (a) the maximum amount of the Loans or (b) the maximum limit of coverage available under said acts.  Any such flood insurance policy shall be issued in accordance with the requirements and current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration.  Borrower shall maintain business interruption insurance, including use and occupancy, rental income loss and extra expense, against all periods covered by Borrower’s property insurance for a limit equal to twelve (12) calendar months’ exposure, all without any exclusions or reduction of policy limits for acts of domestic and foreign terrorism or other specified action/inaction.  Borrower shall not maintain any separate or additional insurance which is contributing in the event of loss unless it is properly endorsed and otherwise satisfactory to Lender in all respects.  The proceeds of insurance paid on account of any damage or destruction to the Project shall be paid to Lender to be applied as provided in Section 3.2.
(2)    Liability.  Borrower shall maintain (a) commercial general liability insurance with respect to the Project providing for limits of liability of not less than $5,000,000 for both injury to or death of a person and for property damage per occurrence, and (b) other liability insurance as reasonably required by Lender.
(3)    Form and Quality.  All insurance policies shall be endorsed in form and substance acceptable to Lender to name Lender as an additional insured, loss payee or mortgagee thereunder, as its interest may appear, with loss payable to Lender, without contribution, under a standard New York (or local equivalent) mortgagee clause.  All such insurance policies and endorsements shall be fully paid for, shall be issued by appropriately licensed insurance companies acceptable to Lender with a rating of “A‐:IX” or better as established by A.M. Best’s Rating Guide, and shall be in such form, and shall contain such provisions, deductibles (with no increased deductible for acts of domestic and foreign terrorism or other specified action/

13






inaction) and expiration dates, as are acceptable to Lender.  Each policy shall provide that such policy may not be canceled or materially changed except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of intention of non‐renewal, cancellation or material change to Lender and that no act or thing done by Borrower shall invalidate any policy as against Lender.  Blanket policies shall be permitted only if Lender receives appropriate endorsements and/or duplicate policies containing Lender’s right to continue coverage on a pro rata pass‐through basis and that coverage will not be affected by any loss on other properties covered by the policies.  If Borrower fails to maintain insurance in compliance with this Section 3.1, Lender may obtain such insurance and pay the premium therefor and Borrower shall, on demand, reimburse Lender for all expenses incurred in connection therewith.  
(4)    Assignment.  Borrower shall assign the policies or proofs of insurance to Lender, in such manner and form that Lender and its successors and assigns shall at all times have and hold the same as security for the payment of the Loans.  If requested by Lender, Borrower shall deliver copies of all original policies certified to Lender by the insurance company or authorized agent as being true copies, together with the endorsements required hereunder.  If Borrower elects to obtain any insurance which is not required under this Agreement (including earthquake insurance), all related insurance policies shall be endorsed in compliance with Section 3.1(3), and such additional insurance shall not be canceled without prior notice to Lender.  From time to time upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall identify to Lender all insurance maintained by Borrower with respect to the Project.  The proceeds of insurance policies coming into the possession of Lender shall not be deemed trust funds, and Lender shall be entitled to apply such proceeds as herein provided.
(5)    Adjustments.  Borrower shall give immediate written notice of any loss to the insurance carrier and to Lender.  Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers Lender, as attorney‐in‐fact for Borrower coupled with an interest, to notify any of Borrower’s insurance carriers to add Lender as a loss payee, mortgagee insured or additional insured, as the case may be, to any policy maintained by Borrower (regardless of whether such policy is required under this Agreement), to make proof of loss, to adjust and compromise any claim under insurance policies, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from such insurance policies, to collect and receive insurance proceeds, and to deduct therefrom Lender’s expenses incurred in the collection of such proceeds.  Nothing contained in this Section 3.1(5), however, shall require Lender to incur any expense or take any action hereunder.
Section 3.2.    Use and Application of Insurance Proceeds.  Lender shall apply insurance proceeds to costs of restoring the damaged Parcel or the Loans as follows:
(1)    if the loss is less than or equal to the Restoration Threshold, Lender shall apply the insurance proceeds to restoration provided (a) no Event of Default or Potential Default exists, and (b) Borrower promptly commences and is diligently pursuing restoration of the damaged Parcel;
(2)    if the loss exceeds the Restoration Threshold, but is not more than ten percent (10%) of the replacement value of the improvements located on the damaged Parcel, Lender shall apply the insurance proceeds to restoration provided that at all times during such restoration (a) no Event of Default or Potential Default exists; (b) Lender determines that there are sufficient funds available to restore and repair the damaged Parcel to a condition approved by Lender; (c) Lender determines that the Underwritten NOI during restoration will be sufficient to pay Debt Service during restoration; (d) Lender determines that after restoration the Loan-to-Value Ratio, Debt Service Coverage Ratio and the Cash on Cash Return will be at least equal to the Loan-to-Value, Debt Service Coverage Ratio and Cash on Cash Return amounts set forth in Paragraph 1 of Schedule 2.1; (e) Lender determines that restoration and repair of the damaged Parcel to a condition approved by Lender will be completed within six months after the date of loss or casualty and in any event ninety (90) days prior to the Maturity Date; (f) Borrower promptly commences and is diligently pursuing restoration of the damaged Parcel; and (g) the damaged Parcel after the restoration will be in compliance with and permitted 

14






under all applicable zoning, building and land use laws, rules, regulations and ordinances;
(3)    if the conditions set forth above are not satisfied or the loss exceeds the maximum amount specified in Section 3.2(2) above, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender may apply any insurance proceeds it may receive to amounts owing under the Loan Documents in such order and manner as Lender in its sole discretion determines, or allow all or a portion of such proceeds to be used for the restoration of the damaged Parcel; and
(4)    insurance proceeds applied to restoration will be disbursed on receipt of satisfactory plans and specifications, contracts and subcontracts, schedules, budgets, lien waivers and architects’ certificates, and otherwise in accordance with prudent commercial construction lending practices for construction loan advances, including, as applicable, the advance conditions under Schedule 2.4(1).  Any insurance proceeds remaining after payment of all restoration costs shall be applied by Lender to the outstanding principal balance of the Loans or, at Lender’s sole option, remitted to Borrower.
Section 3.3.    Condemnation Awards.  Borrower shall immediately notify Lender of the institution of any proceeding for the condemnation or other taking of a Parcel or any portion thereof.  Lender may participate in any such proceeding and Borrower will deliver to Lender all instruments necessary or required by Lender to permit such participation.  Without Lender’s prior consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Borrower (1) shall not agree to any compensation or award, and (2) shall not take any action or fail to take any action which would cause the compensation to be determined.  All awards and compensation for the taking or purchase in lieu of condemnation of a Parcel or any part thereof are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Lender.  Borrower authorizes Lender to collect and receive such awards and compensation, to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor, and in Lender’s sole discretion to apply the same toward the payment of the Loans, notwithstanding that the Loans may not then be due and payable, or to the restoration of the condemned Parcel; however, if the award is less than or equal to $50,000 and Borrower requests that such proceeds be used for non‐structural site improvements (such as landscape, driveway, walkway and parking area repairs) required to be made as a result of such condemnation, Lender will apply the award to such restoration in accordance with disbursement procedures applicable to insurance proceeds provided there exists no Potential Default or Event of Default.  Borrower, upon request by Lender, shall execute all instruments requested to confirm the assignment of the awards and compensation to Lender, free and clear of all liens, charges or encumbrances.

Borrower shall deposit into a reserve with Lender, monthly on the first day of each month, one‐twelfth (1/12th) of the annual charges for real estate taxes, assessments and similar charges relating to the Project.  At or before the initial advance of the Loans, Borrower shall deposit with Lender a sum of money which together with the monthly installments will be sufficient to make each of such payments thirty (30) days prior to the date any delinquency or penalty becomes due with respect to such payments.  Deposits shall be made on the basis of Lender’s estimate from time to time of the charges for the current year (after giving effect to any reassessment or, at Lender’s election, on the basis of the charges for the prior year, with adjustments when the charges are fixed for the then current year).  All funds so deposited shall be held by Lender under its sole dominion and control, without interest, and may be commingled with Lender’s general funds.  Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in all funds so deposited with Lender for the purpose of securing the Loans.  While an Event of Default exists, the funds deposited may be applied in payment of the charges for which such funds have been deposited, or to the payment of the Loans or any other charges affecting the security of Lender, as Lender may elect, but no such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or otherwise until actually made by Lender.  Borrower shall furnish Lender with bills for the charges for which such deposits are required at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the charges first become payable.  If at any time the amount on deposit with Lender, together with amounts to be deposited by Borrower before such charges are payable, 

15






is insufficient to pay such charges, Borrower shall deposit any deficiency with Lender immediately upon demand.  Lender shall pay such charges when the amount on deposit with Lender is sufficient to pay such charges and Lender has received a bill for such charges.

The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower and each Borrower Party of the Loan Documents:  (1) are duly authorized and do not require the consent or approval of any other party or governmental authority which has not been obtained; and (2) will not violate any law or result in the imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon the assets of any such party, except as contemplated by the Loan Documents.  The Loan Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower and each Borrower Party, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws generally affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights.
Section 4.3.    Liabilities; Litigation; Other Secured Transactions.
(1)    The financial statements delivered by Borrower and each Borrower Party are true and correct with no significant change since the date of preparation.  Except as disclosed in such financial statements, there are no liabilities (fixed or contingent) affecting the Project, Borrower or any Borrower Party.  Except as disclosed in such financial statements, there is no litigation, administrative proceeding, investigation or other legal action (including any proceeding under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency law) pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened, against the Project, Borrower or any Borrower Party which if adversely determined could have a material adverse effect on such party, the Project or the Loans.
(2)    Borrower is not, and has not been, bound (whether as a result of a merger or otherwise) as a debtor under a pledge or security agreement entered into by another Person, which has not heretofore been terminated.
Section 4.4.    Taxes and Assessments.  The Project is comprised of one or more parcels, each of which constitutes a separate tax lot and none of which constitutes a portion of any other tax lot.  There are no pending or, to Borrower’s best knowledge, proposed, special or other assessments for public improvements or otherwise affecting the Project, nor are there any contemplated improvements to the Project that may result in such special or other assessments.
Section 4.5.    Other Agreements; Defaults.  Neither Borrower nor any Borrower Party is 

16






a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any court order, injunction, permit, or restriction which might adversely affect the Project or the business, operations, or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower or any Borrower Party.  Neither Borrower nor any Borrower Party is in violation of any agreement which violation would have an adverse effect on the Project, Borrower, or any Borrower Party or Borrower’s or any Borrower Party’s business, properties, or assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise.
Section 4.6.    Compliance with Law.
(1)    Borrower and each Borrower Party have all requisite licenses, permits, franchises, qualifications, certificates of occupancy or other governmental authorizations to own, lease and operate the Project and carry on its business.  The Project is in compliance with all applicable zoning, subdivision, building and other legal requirements and is free of structural defects.  All of the Project’s building systems are in good working order, subject to ordinary wear and tear.  The Project does not constitute, in whole or in part, a legally non‐conforming use under applicable legal requirements.
(2)    No condemnation has been commenced or, to Borrower’s knowledge, is contemplated with respect to all or any portion of the Project or for the relocation of roadways providing access to the Project.
(3)    The Project has adequate rights of access to public ways and is served by adequate water, sewer, sanitary sewer and storm drain facilities.  All public utilities necessary or convenient to the full use and enjoyment of the Project are located in the public right‐of‐way abutting the Project, and all such utilities are connected so as to serve the Project without passing over other property, except to the extent such other property is subject to a perpetual easement for such utility benefiting the Project.  All roads necessary for the full utilization of the Project for its current purpose have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all governmental authorities.
Section 4.7.    Location of Borrower.  Borrower’s principal place of business and chief executive offices are located at the address stated in Section 12.1 and, except as otherwise set forth in Schedule 4.1, Borrower at all times has maintained its principal place of business and chief executive office at such location or at other locations within the same state.
Section 4.8.    ERISA.
(1)    As of the Closing Date and throughout the term of the Loans, (a) Borrower is not and will not be an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), which is subject to Title I of ERISA, and (b) the assets of Borrower do not and will not constitute “plan assets” of one or more such plans for purposes of Title I of ERISA; and
(2)    As of the Closing Date and throughout the term of the Loans (a) Borrower is not and will not be a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA and (b) transactions by or with Borrower are not and will not be subject to state statutes applicable to Borrower regulating investments of and fiduciary obligations with respect to governmental plans.
(3)    Borrower has no employees.

Section 4.10.    Tax Filings.  Borrower and each Borrower Party have filed (or have obtained 

17






effective extensions for filing) all federal, state and local tax returns required to be filed and have paid or made adequate provision for the payment of all federal, state and local taxes, charges and assessments payable by Borrower and each Borrower Party, respectively.
Section 4.11.    Solvency.  Giving effect to the Loans, the fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the making of the Loans, exceed Borrower’s total liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities.  The fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets is and will, immediately following the making of the Loans, be greater than Borrower’s probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its Debts as such Debts become absolute and matured.  Borrower’s assets do not and, immediately following the making of the Loans will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted.  Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur Debts and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such Debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by Borrower and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower).  Except as expressly disclosed to Lender in writing, no petition in bankruptcy has been filed by or against Borrower or any Borrower Party in the last seven (7) years, and neither Borrower nor any Borrower Party in the last seven (7) years has ever made an assignment for the benefit of creditors or taken advantage of any insolvency act for the benefit of debtors.  Neither Borrower nor any Borrower Party is contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of its assets or property, and neither Borrower nor any Borrower Party has knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it.
Section 4.12.    Full and Accurate Disclosure.  No statement of fact made by or on behalf of Borrower or any Borrower Party in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading.  There is no fact presently known to Borrower which has not been disclosed to Lender which adversely affects, nor as far as Borrower can foresee, might adversely affect, the Project or the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower or any Borrower Party.  All information supplied by Borrower regarding any other Collateral is accurate and complete in all material respects.  All evidence of Borrower’s and each Borrower Party’s identity provided to Lender is genuine, and all related information is accurate.
Section 4.13.    Single Purpose Entity.  Borrower is and has at all times since its formation been a Single Purpose Entity.
Section 4.14.    No Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Borrower will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property or assets of Borrower pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, operating agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which any of Borrower’s property or assets is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over Borrower or any of Borrower’s properties or assets, and any consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court or any such regulatory authority or other governmental agency or body required for the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect.
Section 4.15.    Title.  Borrower has good, marketable and insurable title to each Parcel, free 

18






and clear of all Liens whatsoever, except for the Permitted Encumbrances and such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents and has rights and the power to transfer each item of Collateral upon which it purports to grant a Lien under the Mortgages or any of the other Loan Documents.  The Mortgages create (and upon the recordation thereof and of any related financing statements there will be perfected) (1) valid Liens on the Parcels encumbered thereby, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances and (2) security interests in and to, and collateral assignments of, all personality (including the leases), all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to any applicable Permitted Encumbrances and such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents.  There are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Project which are or may become a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents.  None of the Permitted Encumbrances, individually or in the aggregate, materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgages and this Agreement, materially and adversely affect the value of the Project, impair the use or operations of  the Project or impair Borrower’s ability to pay its obligations in a timely manner.
Section 4.16.    Use of Project.  The Project is being, and will continue to be, used exclusively for self storage facilities and other appurtenant and related uses.
Section 4.17.    Flood Zone.  No portion of the Improvements is located in an area identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development or any successor thereto as an area having special flood hazards pursuant to the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Act of 1994, as amended, or any successor law.
Section 4.18.    Insurance.  Borrower has obtained and has delivered to Lender certified copies of all of the insurance policies for the Project reflecting the insurance coverages, amounts and other insurance requirements set forth in this Agreement.  No claims have been made under any such policy, and no Person, including Borrower, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of any such policy.
Section 4.19.    Certificate of Occupancy; Licenses.  All certifications, permits, licenses and approvals, including without limitation, certificates of completion and occupancy permits, required for the legal use, occupancy and operation of the Project as self storage facilities (collectively, the “Licenses”) have been obtained and are in full force and effect.  Borrower shall keep and maintain all Licenses in full force and effect.  The use being made of the Project is in conformity with any applicable certificate of occupancy issued for the Property.
Section 4.20.    Physical Condition.  Except as disclosed in the building condition reports certified to Lender and delivered in connection with the initial advance of the Loans, the Project, including, without limitation, all buildings, improvements, parking facilities, sidewalks, storm drainage systems, roofs, plumbing systems, HVAC systems, fire protection systems, electrical systems, equipment, elevators, exterior sidings and doors, landscaping, irrigation systems and all structural components, are in good condition, order and repair in all material respects; to Borrower’s knowledge, there exists no structural or other material defects or damages in the Project, whether latent or otherwise, and Borrower has not received written notice from any insurance company or bonding company of any defects or inadequacies in the Project, or any part thereof, which would adversely affect the insurability of the same or cause the imposition of extraordinary premiums or charges thereon or of any termination or threatened termination of any policy of insurance or bond.
Section 4.21.    Boundaries.  All of the Improvements on each Parcel lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of such Parcel, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon such Parcel, and no Improvements encroach upon or violate any easements or other 

19






encumbrances upon such Parcel, so as to materially adversely affect the value or marketability of such Parcel, except those which are insured against by title insurance.
Section 4.22.    Separate Lots.  Each Parcel is comprised of one (1) or more parcels which constitutes one (1) or more separate tax lots and does not constitute a portion of any other tax lot not a part of the Project.
Section 4.23.    Survey.  The survey for each Parcel delivered to Lender in connection with this Agreement does not fail to reflect any material matter affecting such Parcel or the title thereto.
Section 4.24.    Filing and Recording Taxes.  All transfer taxes, deed stamps, intangible taxes or other amounts in the nature of transfer taxes required to be paid by any Person under applicable legal requirements currently in effect in connection with the transfer of the Project to Borrower or any transfer of a controlling interest in Borrower have been paid.  All mortgage, mortgage recording, stamp, intangible or other similar tax required to be paid by any Person under applicable legal requirements currently in effect in connection with the execution, delivery, recordation, filing, registration, perfection or enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Mortgages, have been paid and, under current legal requirements, the Mortgages are enforceable in accordance with their respective terms by Lender or any subsequent holder thereof, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws generally affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights.
Section 4.25.    Investment Company Act.  Borrower is not (1) an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; (2) a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of either a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended; or (3) subject to any other federal or state law or regulation which purports to restrict or regulate its ability to borrow money.
Section 4.26.    Management Agreement.  Self Storage Management LLC is the Manager of the Project.  The management agreement for the Project delivered to Lender in connection with this Agreement is the only management agreement for the Project.

(1)    Borrower shall (a) comply with applicable Environmental Laws; (b) notify Lender

immediately upon Borrower’s discovery of any spill, discharge, release or presence of any Hazardous Material at, upon, under, within, contiguous to or otherwise affecting the Project; (c) promptly remove such Hazardous Materials and remediate the Project in full compliance with Environmental Laws and in accordance with the recommendations and specifications of an independent environmental consultant approved by Lender; and (d) promptly forward to Lender copies of all orders, notices, permits, applications or other communications and reports in connection with any spill, discharge, release or the presence of any Hazardous Material or any other matters relating to the Environmental Laws or any similar laws or regulations, as they may affect the Project or Borrower.
(2)    Borrower shall not cause, shall prohibit any other Person within the control of Borrower from causing, and shall use prudent, commercially reasonable efforts to prohibit other Persons (including tenants and other occupants) from causing (a) any spill, discharge or release, or the use, storage, generation, manufacture, installation, or disposal, of any Hazardous Materials at, upon, under, within or about the Project or the transportation of any Hazardous Materials to or from the Project (except for cleaning and other products used in connection with routine maintenance or repair of the Project in full compliance with Environmental Laws), (b) any underground storage tanks to be installed at the Project, or (c) any activity that requires a permit or other authorization under Environmental Laws to be conducted at the Project.
(3)    Borrower shall provide to Lender, at Borrower’s expense promptly upon the written request of Lender from time to time, a Site Assessment or, if required by Lender, an update to any existing Site Assessment, to assess the presence or absence of any Hazardous Materials and the potential costs in connection with abatement, cleanup or removal of any Hazardous Materials found on, under, at or within the Project.  Borrower shall pay the cost of no more than one such Site Assessment or update in any twelve (12)‐month period, unless Lender’s request for a Site Assessment is based on either information provided under Section 5.2(1), a reasonable suspicion of Hazardous Materials at or near the Project, a breach of representations under Section 5.1, or an Event of Default, in which case any such Site Assessment or update shall be at Borrower’s expense.
Section 5.3.    Allocation of Risks and Indemnity.  As between Borrower and Lender, all risk of loss associated with non‐compliance with Environmental Laws, or with the presence of any Hazardous Material at, upon, within, contiguous to or otherwise affecting the Project, shall lie solely with Borrower.  Accordingly, Borrower shall bear all risks and costs associated with any loss (including any loss in value attributable to Hazardous Materials), damage or liability therefrom, including all costs of removal of Hazardous Materials or other remediation required by Lender or by law.  Borrower shall at all times indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, suits, actions, debts, damages, losses, liabilities, litigations, judgments, charges, costs and expenses (including reasonable costs of defense), of any nature whatsoever proffered or incurred by Lender, whether as mortgagee or beneficiary under the Mortgages, as mortgagee in possession, or as successor‐in‐interest to Borrower by foreclosure deed or deed in lieu of foreclosure, and whether based in contract, tort, implied or express warranty, strict liability, criminal or civil statute or common law, including those arising from the joint, concurrent or comparative negligence of Lender, under or on account of the Environmental Laws, including the assertion of any lien thereunder, with respect to:  (1) a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Borrower contained in this Article 5; (2) any acts performed by Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5; (3) any discharge of Hazardous Materials, the threat of discharge of any Hazardous Materials or the storage or presence of any Hazardous Materials affecting the Project whether or not the same originates or emanates from the Project or any contiguous real estate, including any loss of value of the Project as a result of the foregoing; (4) any costs of removal or remedial action incurred by the United States Government or any costs incurred by any other Person or damages from injury to, destruction of, or loss of natural resources including reasonable costs of assessing such injury, destruction or loss incurred pursuant to any Environmental Laws; (5) liability for

The foregoing notwithstanding, Borrower shall not be liable under the foregoing indemnification to the extent any such loss, liability, damage, claim, cost or expense results solely from Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Borrower’s obligations under this Article 5 shall arise upon the discovery of the presence of any Hazardous Material, whether or not the Environmental Protection Agency, any other federal agency or any state or local environmental agency has taken or threatened any action in connection with the presence of any Hazardous Materials and whether or not the existence of any such Hazardous Material or potential liability on account thereof is disclosed in the Site Assessment, and shall continue notwithstanding the repayment of the Loans or any transfer or sale of any right, title and interest in the Project (by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the conditions specified below in this Section 5.3, Borrower shall not be liable under this Section 5.3 for such indemnified matters directly created or arising from events or conditions caused or created by Lender and first existing after Lender acquires title to the Project by foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu thereof, but only if (a) Borrower delivers to Lender a current site assessment evidencing the presence of no Hazardous Materials on the Project and no violation of any Environmental Laws with respect to the Project not more than ninety (90) days and not less than thirty (30) days prior thereto, and (b) such loss, liability, damage, claim, cost or expense does not directly or indirectly arise from or relate to any release of or exposure to any Hazardous Material (including personal injury or damage to property), non‐compliance with any Environmental Laws, or remediation existing or occurring prior to the date Lender acquires title to the Project.
Section 5.4.    Lender’s Right to Protect Collateral.  If (1) any discharge of Hazardous Materials or the threat of a discharge of Hazardous Material affecting the Project occurs, whether originating or emanating from the Project or any contiguous real estate, and/or (2) Borrower fails to comply with any Environmental Laws or related regulations, Lender may at its election, but without the obligation so to do, give such notices and/or cause such work to be performed at the Project and/or take any and all other actions as Lender shall deem necessary or advisable in order to abate the discharge of any Hazardous Material, remove the Hazardous Material or cure Borrower’s noncompliance.
Section 5.5.    No Waiver.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Article 5 or elsewhere in the Loan Documents, or any rights or remedies granted by the Loan Documents, Lender does not waive and expressly reserves all rights and benefits now or hereafter accruing to Lender under any “security interest” or “secured creditor” exception under applicable Environmental Laws, as the same may be amended.

Such lease form shall provide that the tenant shall attorn to Lender, and that any cancellation, surrender, or amendment of such lease without the prior written consent of Lender shall be voidable by Lender.  Borrower shall hold, in trust, all tenant security deposits in a segregated account, and, to the extent required by applicable law, shall not commingle any such funds with any other funds of Borrower.

Section 8.2.    Taxes; Charges.  Borrower shall pay before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto, and shall not enter into any agreement to defer, any real estate taxes and assessments, franchise taxes and charges, and other governmental charges that may become a Lien upon the Project or become payable during the term of the Loans, and will promptly furnish Lender with evidence of such payment; however, Borrower’s compliance with Section 3.4 of this Agreement relating to impounds for taxes and assessments shall, with respect to payment of such taxes and assessments, be deemed compliance with this Section 8.2.  Borrower shall not suffer or permit the joint assessment of the Project with any other real property constituting a separate tax lot or with any other real or personal property.  Borrower shall pay when due all claims and demands of mechanics, materialmen, laborers and others which, if unpaid, might result in a Lien on the Project; however, Borrower may contest the validity of such claims and demands so long as (1) Borrower notifies Lender that it intends to contest such claim or demand, (2) Borrower provides Lender with an indemnity, bond or other security satisfactory to Lender (including an endorsement to Lender’s title insurance policy insuring against such claim or demand) assuring the discharge of Borrower’s obligations for such claims and demands, including interest and penalties, and (3) Borrower is diligently contesting the same by appropriate legal proceedings in good faith and at its own expense and concludes such contest prior to the tenth (10th) day preceding the earlier to occur of the Maturity Date or the date on which the Project is scheduled to be sold for non‐payment.

Any change in ownership or control of the property manager shall be cause for Lender to re‐approve such property manager and property management agreement.

Borrower shall fully perform all of its covenants, agreements and obligations under the property management agreement.

Borrower shall permit Lender and its agents, representatives and employees, upon reasonable prior notice to Borrower, to inspect the Project and conduct such environmental and engineering studies as Lender may require, provided such inspections and studies do not materially interfere with the use and operation of the Project.
Section 8.5.    Taxes on Security.  Borrower shall pay all taxes, charges, filing, registration 

26

If there shall be enacted any law (1) deducting the Loans from the value of the Project for the purpose of taxation, (2) affecting any Lien on the Project, or (3) changing existing laws of taxation of mortgages, deeds of trust, security deeds, or debts secured by real property, or changing the manner of collecting any such taxes, Borrower shall promptly pay to Lender, on demand, all taxes, costs and charges for which Lender is or may be liable as a result thereof; however, if such payment would be prohibited by law or would render the Loans usurious, then instead of collecting such payment, Lender may declare all amounts owing under the Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable.
Section 8.6.    Legal Existence; Name, Etc.  Borrower shall preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence as, and at all times operate as, a Single Purpose Entity, and Borrower and each general partner or managing member in Borrower shall preserve and keep in full force and effect its entity status, franchises, rights and privileges under the laws of the state of its formation, and all qualifications, licenses and permits applicable to the ownership, use and operation of the Project.  Neither Borrower nor any general partner or managing member of Borrower shall wind up, liquidate, dissolve, reorganize, merge, or consolidate with or into any Person, or permit any subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower to do so.  Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall not reincorporate or reorganize itself under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated or organized as of the Closing Date.

Borrower (and each general partner or managing member in Borrower, if any) shall maintain its separateness as an entity, including maintaining separate books, records, and accounts and observing corporate and partnership formalities independent of any other entity, shall pay its obligations with its own funds and shall not commingle funds or assets with those of any other entity.  If Borrower does not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of its organizational identification number.

From time to time upon the written request of 

27






Lender, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a schedule of the name, legal domicile address and jurisdiction of organization, if applicable, for each Borrower Party and each holder of a legal interest in Borrower.
Section 8.10.    Estoppel Certificates.  Borrower, within ten (10) days after request, shall furnish to Lender a written statement, duly acknowledged, setting forth the amount due on the Loans, the terms of payment of the Loans, the date to which interest has been paid, whether any offsets or defenses exist against the Loans and, if any are alleged to exist, the nature thereof in detail, and such other matters as Lender reasonably may request.

Borrower shall apply all Operating Revenues to the payment of Debt Service and other payments due under the Loan Documents, taxes, assessments, water charges, sewer rents and other governmental charges levied, assessed or imposed against the Project, insurance premiums, operations and maintenance charges relating to the Project, and other obligations of the lessor under leases of space at the Project, before using Operating Revenues for any other purpose.
Section 8.14.    Payment for Labor and Materials.

Lender may condition any such approval upon receipt of a certificate of Access Law compliance from an architect, engineer, or other person reasonably acceptable to Lender.
(3)    Borrower agrees to give prompt notice to Lender of the receipt by Borrower of any written complaints related to violation of any Access Laws with respect to the Project and of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations which relate to compliance with applicable Access Laws.

Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 10.7 or 10.8, all amounts due under the Loan Documents immediately shall become due and payable, all without written notice and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate the maturity thereof, notice of acceleration of the maturity thereof, or any other notice of default of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower; however, if the Bankruptcy Party under Section 10.7 or 10.8 is other than Borrower, then all amounts due under the Loan Documents shall become immediately due and payable at Lender’s election, in Lender’s sole discretion.
Section 11.2.    Remedies ‐ Other Events.  Except as set forth in Section 11.1 above, while any Event of Default exists, Lender may (1) by written notice to Borrower, declare the entire amount of the Loans to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate the maturity thereof, notice of acceleration of the maturity thereof, or other notice of default of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower, and (2)  exercise all rights and remedies therefor under the Loan Documents and at law or in equity.
Section 11.3.    Lender’s Right to Perform the Obligations.  If Borrower shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform any act required by the Loan Documents, then while any Event of Default exists, and without notice to or demand upon Borrower and without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse Lender may have because of such Event of Default, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at the expense of Borrower, and shall have the right to enter upon the Project for such purpose and to take all such action thereon and with respect to the Project as it may deem necessary or appropriate.

Section 12.2.    Amendments and Waivers; References.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be executed, entered into, altered, amended, or modified by electronic means.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower and Lender hereby agree that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not be conducted by electronic means, except as specifically set forth in Section 12.1 regarding notices.  Any reference to a Loan Document, whether in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, shall be deemed to be a reference to such Loan Document as it may hereafter from time to time be amended, modified, supplemented and restated in accordance with the terms hereof.
Section 12.3.    Limitation on Interest.  It is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, all agreements between Borrower, Lender with respect to the Loans are hereby expressly limited so that in no event, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender or charged by Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be lent hereunder or otherwise, exceed the maximum amount allowed by law.  If any of the Loans would be usurious under applicable law, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents:  (1) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received under the Loan Documents shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited on the Notes by the holders thereof (or, if the Notes have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower); and (2) if maturity is accelerated by reason of an election by Lender, or in the event of any prepayment, then any consideration which constitutes interest may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by applicable law.  In such case, excess interest, if any, provided for in the Loan Documents or otherwise, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread from the date of advance until payment in full so that the actual rate of interest is uniform through the term hereof.  If such 

33






amortization, proration, allocation and spreading is not permitted under applicable law, then such excess interest shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the Notes (or, if the Notes have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower).  The terms and provisions of this Section 12.3 shall control and supersede every other provision of the Loan Documents.  If at any time the laws of the United States of America permit Lender to contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive a higher rate of interest than is allowed by applicable state law (whether such federal laws directly so provide or refer to the law of any state), then such federal laws shall to such extent govern as to the rate of interest which Lender may contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive under the Loan Documents.
Section 12.4.    Invalid Provisions.  If any provision of any Loan Document is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable; the Loan Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part thereof; the remaining provisions thereof shall remain in full effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom; and in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of such Loan Document a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible to be legal, valid and enforceable.
Section 12.5.    Reimbursement of Expenses.  Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the negotiation, documentation, closing, disbursement and administration of the Loans, including fees and expenses of Lender’s attorneys and Lender’s environmental, engineering, accounting and other consultants; fees, charges and taxes for the recording or filing of Loan Documents; financial investigation, audit and inspection fees and costs; settlement of condemnation and casualty awards; title search costs, premiums for title insurance and endorsements thereto; and fees and costs for UCC and litigation searches and background checks.  Borrower shall, upon request, promptly reimburse Lender for all amounts expended, advanced or incurred by Lender to collect the Notes, or to enforce the rights of Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to defend or assert the rights and claims of Lender under the Loan Documents or with respect to the Project (by litigation or other proceedings), which amounts will include all court costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses, fees of auditors and accountants, and investigation expenses as may be incurred by Lender in connection with any such matters (whether or not litigation is instituted), together with interest at the Default Rate on each such amount from the date of disbursement until the date of reimbursement to Lender, all of which shall constitute part of the Loans and shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
Section 12.6.    Approvals; Third Parties; Conditions.  All rights retained or exercised by Lender to review or approve leases, contracts, plans, studies and other matters, including Borrower’s and any other Person’s compliance with the provisions of Article 9 and compliance with laws applicable to Borrower, the Project or any other Person, are solely to facilitate the Lender’s credit underwriting, and shall not be deemed or construed as a determination that Lender has passed on the adequacy thereof for any other purpose and may not be relied upon by Borrower or any other Person.  This Agreement is for the sole and exclusive use of Lender and Borrower and may not be enforced, nor relied upon, by any Person other than Lender and Borrower.  All conditions of the obligations of Lender hereunder, including the obligation to make advances, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make advances in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of such conditions, and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender at any time in their sole discretion.
Section 12.7.    Lender Not in Control; No Partnership.  None of the covenants or other provisions contained in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to, give Lender the right or power to exercise 

34






control over the affairs or management of Borrower, the power of Lender being limited to the rights to exercise the remedies referred to in the Loan Documents.  The relationship between Borrower and Lender is, and at all times shall remain, solely that of debtor and creditor.  No covenant or provision of the Loan Documents is intended, nor shall it be deemed or construed, to create a partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between Lender and Borrower or to create an equity in the Project in Lender.  Lender neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower or to any other person with respect to the Project or the Loans, except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents; and notwithstanding any other provision of the Loan Documents: (1) Lender is not, and shall not be construed as, a partner, joint venturer, alter ego, manager, controlling person or other business associate or participant of any kind of Borrower or its stockholders, members, or partners and Lender does not intend to ever assume such status; (2) Lender shall not in any event be liable for any Debts, expenses or losses incurred or sustained by Borrower; and (3) Lender shall not be deemed responsible for or a participant in any acts, omissions or decisions of Borrower or its stockholders, members, or partners.  Lender and Borrower disclaim any intention to create any partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between Lender and Borrower, or to create an equity in the Project in Lender, or any sharing of liabilities, losses, costs or expenses.
Section 12.8.    Time of the Essence.  Time is of the essence with respect to this Agreement.
Section 12.9.    Successors and Assigns; Secondary Market Transactions.
(1)    This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Lender and Borrower and their respective successors and assigns of Lender and Borrower, provided that neither Borrower nor any other Borrower Party shall, without the prior written consent of Lender, assign any rights, duties or obligations hereunder.
(2)    Borrower acknowledges that Lender and its successors and assigns may without notice to or consent from Borrower (a) sell this Agreement, the Mortgages, the Notes, the other Loan Documents, and any and all servicing rights thereto, or any portions thereof, to one or more investors, (b) participate and/or syndicate the Loans to one or more investors, (c) deposit this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, or any portions thereof, with a trust, which trust may sell certificates to investors evidencing an ownership interest in the trust assets, or (d) otherwise sell, transfer or assign the Loans or interests therein in one or more transactions to investors (the transactions referred to in clauses (a) through (d) are hereinafter each referred to as a “Secondary Market Transaction”).  Borrower shall reasonably cooperate with Lender in effecting any such Secondary Market Transaction and shall reasonably cooperate and use all reasonable efforts to satisfy the market standards to which Lender customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required by any participant, investor or purchaser involved in any Secondary Market Transaction (including, without limitation, delivery of opinions of counsel in form and substance similar to the opinions of counsel delivered to Lender on the date hereof).  Borrower shall provide such information and documents relating to Borrower and the Project as Lender may reasonably request in connection with such Secondary Market Transaction.  In addition, Borrower shall make available to Lender all information concerning the Project, its business and operations that Lender may reasonably request.  Lender shall be permitted to share all information with the participants, investors, purchasers, investment banking firms, accounting firms, law firms and third-party advisory firms involved with the Loans and Loan Documents or the applicable Secondary Market Transaction.  Lender and all of the aforesaid participants, investors, purchasers, advisors and professional firms shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by or on behalf of Borrower.  Borrower also agrees to execute any amendment of or supplement to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as Lender may reasonably request in connection with any Secondary Market Transaction, provided that such amendment or supplement does not change the economic terms of the Loans or materially increase Borrower’s duties, responsibilities or liabilities under the Loan Documents.
(3)    Lender shall have the right, at any time (whether prior to, in connection with, or after 

35






any Secondary Market Transaction), with respect to all or any portion of the Loans, to modify, split and/or sever all or any portion of the Loans as hereinafter provided.  Without limiting the foregoing, Lender may (i) cause the Notes and Mortgages to be split into first and second mortgage loans, (ii) create one more senior and subordinate notes, (iii) create multiple components of the Notes (and allocate or reallocate the principal balance of the Loans among such components) or (iv) otherwise sever membership interests (directly or indirectly) in Borrower (i.e., a senior loan/mezzanine loan structure), in each such case, in whatever proportion and whatever priority Lender determines; provided, however, in each such instance the outstanding principal balance of all the Notes evidencing the Loans (or components of such Notes) immediately after the effective date of such modification equals the outstanding principal balance of the Loans immediately prior to such modification and the weighted average of the interest rates for all such Notes (or components of such Notes) immediately after the effective date of such modification equals the interest rate of the original Note immediately prior to such modification.  If requested by Lender, Borrower (and Borrower’s constituent members, if applicable) shall execute within two (2) Business Days after such request, such documentation as Lender may reasonably request to evidence and/or effectuate any such modification or severance.
Section 12.10.    Renewal, Extension or Rearrangement.  All provisions of the Loan Documents shall apply with equal effect to each and all promissory notes and amendments thereof hereinafter executed which in whole or in part represent a renewal, extension, increase or rearrangement of the Loans.  For portfolio management purposes, Lender may elect to divide the Loans into two or more separate loans evidenced by separate promissory notes so long as the payment and other obligations of Borrower are not effectively increased or otherwise modified.  Borrower agrees to cooperate with Lender and to execute such documents as Lender reasonably may request to effect such division of the Loans.
Section 12.11.    Waivers.  No course of dealing on the part of Lender, its officers, employees, consultants or agents, nor any failure or delay by Lender with respect to exercising any right, power or privilege of Lender under any of the Loan Documents, shall operate as a waiver thereof.
Section 12.12.    Cumulative Rights.  Rights and remedies of Lender under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative, and the exercise or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy.
Section 12.13.    Singular and Plural.  Words used in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in the singular, where the context so permits, shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa.  The definitions of words in the singular in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall apply to such words when used in the plural where the context so permits and vice versa.

When used in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the phrase “including” shall mean “including, but not limited to,” the phrase “satisfactory to Lender” shall mean in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in all respects, the phrases “with Lender’s consent”, or “with Lender’s approval” shall mean such consent or approval at Lender’s discretion, and the phrase “acceptable to Lender” shall mean acceptable to Lender at Lender’s sole discretion.”
Section 12.15.    Exhibits and Schedules.  The exhibits and schedules attached to this Agreement are incorporated herein and shall be considered a part of this Agreement for the purposes stated herein.
Section 12.16.    Titles of Articles, Sections and Subsections.

36






other content being controlling as to the agreement between the parties hereto.

Borrower authorizes Lender to issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials in connection with Lender’s own promotional and marketing activities, and describing the Loans in general terms or in detail and Lender’s participation in the Loans; provided that all references to Borrower contained in any such press releases, advertisements or promotional materials shall be approved in writing by Borrower in advance of issuance.  All references to Lender contained in any press release, advertisement or promotional material issued by Borrower shall be approved in writing by Lender in advance of issuance.

Section 12.19.    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

SCHEDULE 2.4(1)
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS RESERVE
Capital Improvements Reserve.  On January 15, 2012, and by the fifteenth (15th) day of each January thereafter, Borrower shall deposit into a reserve with Lender (the “Capital Improvements Reserve”) an amount equal to the positive difference between (1) the greater of (a) the product obtained by multiplying the greater of $0.15 by the existing number of rentable square feet in the Project and (b) the annual capital reserve amount determined by Lender from time to time, and (2) the sum of all expenditures by Borrower for capital improvements and replacements to the Project during the preceding calendar year which were approved in advance by Lender and not paid with disbursements from the Capital Improvements Reserve (provided that for the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs, such amount shall be pro-rated to reflect the portion of the calendar year during which the Loans are outstanding).  The Capital Improvements Reserve will be held by Lender without interest and may be commingled with Lender’s own funds.  The Capital Improvement Reserve shall be advanced by Lender to Borrower for capital improvements and capital repairs to the Project, as approved by Lender; however, funds in the Capital Improvements Reserve shall not be available for financing any of the improvements for which capital improvements advances are contemplated by the Budget.  Borrower grants to Lender a security interest in the Capital Improvements Reserve.  While an Event of Default or a Potential Default exists, Lender shall not be obligated to advance to Borrower any portion of the Capital Improvements Reserve, and while an Event of Default exists, Lender shall be entitled, without notice to Borrower, to apply any funds in the Capital Improvements Reserve to satisfy Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents.  Borrower and Lender shall meet annually on a date selected by Lender to establish monthly, quarterly, and annual budgets for capital expenditures for the Project for the succeeding calendar year (the “Capital Expenditures Budget”).  The Capital Expenditures Budget shall be based on the previous year’s experience and an assessment of anticipated future needs, and shall be subject to Lender’s approval.  
Each advance of the Capital Improvements Reserve shall be subject to Lender’s receipt, review, approval and/or confirmation of the following, each in form and content satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion:
1.    There shall exist no Potential Default or Event of Default (currently and after giving effect to the requested advance).
2.    The representations and warranties contained in this Loan Agreement and in all other Loan Documents are true and correct as of the date of the requested advance.
3.    No change shall have occurred in the financial condition of Borrower or any Borrower Party, or in the Underwritten NOI of the Project, or in the financial condition of any major or anchor tenant, which would have, in Lender’s sole judgment, a material adverse effect on the Loans, the Project, or Borrower’s or any Borrower Party’s ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents.
4.    No condemnation or adverse, as determined by Lender, zoning or usage change proceeding shall have occurred or shall have been threatened against the Project; the Project shall not have suffered any damage by fire or other casualty which has not been repaired or is not being restored in accordance with this Agreement; no law, regulation, ordinance, moratorium, injunctive proceeding, restriction, litigation, action, citation or similar proceeding or matter shall have been enacted, adopted, or threatened by any governmental authority, which would have, in Lender’s judgment, a material adverse effect on the Project or Borrower’s or any Borrower Party’s ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents.





5.    Lender shall have no obligation to make any advance for less than $25,000.00, or to make advances more often than once in any one‐month period.
6.    At the option of Lender (i) each advance request shall be submitted to Lender at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the requested advance, and (ii) all advances shall be made at the address of Lender set forth in Section 12.1 or at such other place as Lender may designate unless Lender exercises its option to make an advance directly to the Person to whom payment is due.
7.    Each request for such an advance shall specify the amount requested, shall be on forms satisfactory to Lender, and shall be accompanied by appropriate invoices, bills paid affidavits, lien waivers, title updates, endorsements to the title insurance, and other documents as may be required by Lender.  Such advances may be made, at Lender’s election, either:  (a) in reimbursement for expenses paid by Borrower, or (b) for payment of expenses incurred and invoiced but not yet paid by Borrower.  Lender, at its option and without further direction from Borrower, may disburse any advance to the Person to whom payment is due or through an escrow satisfactory to Lender.  Borrower hereby irrevocably directs and authorizes Lender to so advance the Capital Improvements Reserve.  Lender may, at Borrower’s expense, conduct an audit, inspection, or review of the Project to confirm the amount of the requested Capital Improvements Reserve advance.
8.    Borrower shall have submitted and Lender shall have approved (a) the improvements to be constructed, (b) the plans and specifications for such improvements, which plans and specifications may not be changed without Lender’s prior written consent, and (c) if requested by Lender, each contract or subcontract for an amount in excess of $25,000.00 for the performance of labor or the furnishing of materials for such improvements.
9.    Borrower shall have submitted and Lender shall have approved the time schedule for completing the capital improvements.  After Lender’s approval of a detailed budget, such budget may not be changed without Lender’s prior written consent.  If the estimated cost of such improvements exceeds the unadvanced portion of the Capital Improvements Reserve allocated for such improvements in the approved budget, then Borrower shall provide such security as Lender may require to assure the lien‐free completion of improvements before the scheduled completion date.
10.    All improvements constructed by Borrower prior to the date a Capital Improvements Reserve advance is requested shall be completed to the satisfaction of Lender and Lender’s engineer and in accordance with the plans and budget for such improvements, as approved by Lender, and all legal requirements.
11.    Borrower shall not use any portion of any Capital Improvements Reserve advance for payment of any other cost except as specifically set forth in a request for advance approved by Lender in writing.
12.    Borrower shall have submitted to Lender evidence (including canceled checks, invoices and receipts) satisfactory to Lender that the proceeds of all prior advances have been used for the purposes for which such advances were requested.
Each request for and acceptance of an advance of the Loans shall be deemed to constitute, as of the date of such request or acceptance, a representation and warranty by Borrower that the statements contained in paragraphs 1 and 2 above are true and correct.

If Mortgagor remains in possession of the Mortgaged Property after an Event of Default and without Mortgagee's prior written consent, Mortgagee may invoke any legal remedies to dispossess Mortgagor.
(c)    Operation of Mortgaged Property.  Hold, lease, develop, manage, operate or otherwise use the Mortgaged Property upon such terms and conditions as Mortgagee may deem reasonable under the circumstances (making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements and taking other actions, from time to time, as Mortgagee deems necessary or desirable), and apply all Rents and other amounts collected by Mortgagee in connection therewith in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7.
(d)    Foreclosure and Sale.  Institute proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Mortgage, in which case the Mortgaged Property may be sold for cash or credit in one or more parcels.  With respect to any notices required or permitted under the UCC, Mortgagor agrees that five (5) days' prior written notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable.  At any such sale by virtue of any judicial proceedings or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, the title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the purchaser thereof, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Mortgagor shall be completely and irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the property sold and such sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor, and against all other persons claiming or to claim the property sold or any part thereof, by, through or under Mortgagor.  Mortgagee may be a purchaser at such sale and if Mortgagee is the highest bidder, may credit the portion of the purchase price that would be distributed to Mortgagee against the Indebtedness in lieu of paying cash.  In connection with any foreclosure sale:  (i) Mortgagee shall have no obligation to clean up, repair or otherwise prepare the Mortgaged Property for sale; (ii) Mortgagor waives any right it may have to require Mortgagee to pursue any third party for any of the Indebtedness; (iii) Mortgagee may comply with any applicable state or 

5






federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Mortgaged Property; (iv) Mortgagee may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like; (v) if Mortgagee sells any of the Mortgaged Property on credit, Mortgagor will be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser, received by Mortgagee and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser; and (vi) Mortgagee may apply any noncash proceeds of a disposition of the Mortgaged Property in any commercially reasonable manner selected by Mortgagee.  Compliance by Mortgagee with the standards set forth in the foregoing sentence shall not be deemed to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Mortgaged Property or portion thereof.
(e)    Receiver.  Make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to Mortgagor or regard to the adequacy of the Mortgaged Property for the repayment of the Indebtedness, the appointment of a receiver of the Mortgaged Property, and Mortgagor irrevocably consents to such appointment.  Any such receiver shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Mortgaged Property upon such terms as may be approved by the court, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7.
(f)    Other.  Exercise all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity (including an action for specific performance of any covenant contained in the Loan Documents, or a judgment on the Note either before, during or after any proceeding to enforce this Mortgage).
Section 4.2    Separate Sales.  The Mortgaged Property may be sold in one or more parcels and in such manner and order as Mortgagee in its sole discretion, may elect; the right of sale arising out of any Event of Default shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales.
Section 4.3    Remedies Cumulative, Concurrent and Nonexclusive.  Mortgagee shall have all rights, remedies and recourses granted in the Loan Documents and available at law or equity (including the UCC), which rights (a) shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Mortgagor or others obligated under the Note and the other Loan Documents, or against the Mortgaged Property, or against any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of Mortgagee, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, and the exercise or failure to exercise any of them shall not 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 action by Mortgagee in the enforcement of any rights, remedies or recourses under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity shall be deemed to cure any Event of Default.
Section 4.4    Release of and Resort to Collateral.  Mortgagee may release, regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien on the Mortgaged Property, any part of the Mortgaged Property without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing the lien or security interests created in or evidenced by the Loan Documents or their stature as a first and prior lien and security interest in and to the Mortgaged Property.  For payment of the Indebtedness, Mortgagee may resort to any other security in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect.
Section 4.5    Waiver of Redemption, Notice and Marshalling of Assets.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial decision exempting the Mortgaged Property from attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or 

6






extension of time for payment, (b) all notices of any Event of Default or of Mortgagee's election to exercise or its actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse provided for under the Loan Documents, and (c) any right to a marshalling of assets or a sale in inverse order of alienation.
Section 4.6    Discontinuance of Proceedings.  If Mortgagee shall have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon it for any reason, Mortgagee shall have the unqualified right to do so and, in such an event, Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions with respect to the Indebtedness, the Obligations, the Loan Documents, the Mortgaged Property and otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Mortgagee shall continue as if the right, remedy or recourse had never been invoked, but no such discontinuance or abandonment shall waive any Event of Default which may then exist or the right of Mortgagee thereafter to exercise any right, remedy or recourse under the Loan Documents for such Event of Default.
Section 4.7    Application of Proceeds.  The proceeds of any sale of, and the Rents and other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, management, operation or other use of the Mortgaged Property, shall be applied by Mortgagee (or the receiver, if one is appointed) in the following order unless otherwise required by applicable law:
(a)    to the payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the Mortgaged Property and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the same, including, without limitation (1) receiver's fees and expenses, (2) court costs, (3) attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses, (4) costs of advertisement, and (5) the payment of all ground rent, real estate taxes and assessments, except any taxes, assessments or other charges subject to which the Mortgaged Property shall have been sold;

All occupants of the Mortgaged Property shall, at the option of such purchaser, become tenants of the purchaser at the foreclosure sale and shall deliver possession thereof immediately to the purchaser upon demand.  It shall not be necessary for the purchaser at said sale to bring any action for possession of the Mortgaged Property other than the statutory action of forcible detainer in any justice court having jurisdiction over the Mortgaged Property.
Section 4.9    Additional Advances and Disbursements; Costs of Enforcement.
(a)    If any Event of Default exists, Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such Event of Default in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor.  All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by Mortgagee under this Section 4.9, or otherwise under this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents or applicable law, shall bear interest from the date that such sum is advanced or expense incurred, to and including the date of reimbursement, computed at the Default Rate 

7






(as defined in the Loan Agreement), and all such sums, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Mortgage.
(b)    Mortgagor shall pay all expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of or incidental to the perfection and enforcement of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Indebtedness or any claim under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and for the curing thereof, or for defending or asserting the rights and claims of Mortgagee in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise.

Neither the enforcement of any of the remedies under this Article 4, the assignment of the Rents and Leases under Article 5, the security interests under Article 6, nor any other remedies afforded to Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall cause Mortgagee to be deemed or construed to be a mortgagee in possession of the Mortgaged Property, to obligate Mortgagee to lease the Mortgaged Property or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the Leases or otherwise.
ARTICLE 5     
ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND LEASES
Section 5.1    Assignment.  Mortgagor acknowledges and confirms that it has executed and delivered to Mortgagee an Assignment of Rents and Leases of even date (the "Assignment of Rents and Leases"), intending that such instrument create a present, absolute assignment to Mortgagee of the Leases and Rents.  Without limiting the intended benefits or the remedies provided under the Assignment of Rents and Leases, Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee, as further security for the Indebtedness and the Obligations, the Leases and Rents.  While any Event of Default exists, Mortgagee shall be entitled to exercise any or all of the remedies provided in the Assignment of Rents and Leases and in Article 4 hereof, including the right to have a receiver appointed.  If any conflict or inconsistency exists between the assignment of the Rents and the Leases in this Mortgage and the absolute assignment of the Rents and the Leases in the Assignment of Rents and Leases, the terms of the Assignment of Rents and Leases shall control.
Section 5.2    No Merger of Estates.  So long as any part of the Indebtedness and the Obligations secured hereby remain unpaid and undischarged, the fee and leasehold estates to the Mortgaged Property shall not merge, but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of such estates either in Mortgagor, Mortgagee, any lessee or any third party by purchase or otherwise.

Mortgagor hereby irrevocably authorizes Mortgagee at any time and from time to file in any filing office in any UCC jurisdiction one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, without the signature of Mortgagor where permitted by law.  Mortgagor agrees to furnish Mortgagee, promptly upon request, with any information required by Mortgagee to complete such financing or continuation statements.
