     13. REFERENCES IN THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. Borrower, New GP and Lender hereby
         --------------------------------
acknowledge and agree that the terms "Beneficiary", "Lender" and "Assignee"
contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to refer to Lender and its
successors and/or assigns. Borrower, New GP and Lender further acknowledge and
agree that from and after the date hereof, this Agreement and the Additional
Documents shall be deemed and construed to be "Loan Documents" under the Loan
Documents for all purposes.

     14. RATIFICATION AND CONFIRMATION OF THE LOAN. Each of Borrower, New GP and

<PAGE>

modified by this Agreement and the Additional Documents, and under the
Additional Documents to which it is a party, in accordance with their respective
terms and conditions. Each of Borrower, New GP and Lessee ratify, affirm,
reaffirm, acknowledge, confirm and agree that the Loan Documents, as
specifically modified by this Agreement and the Additional Documents, remain in
full force and effect and, together with any Additional Documents, represent
legal, valid and binding obligations of each of Borrower, New GP and Lessee, as
applicable, enforceable against Borrower, New GP and Lessee, as applicable, in
accordance with their terms. Each of Borrower, New GP and Lessee acknowledge and
agree that, as of the date hereof, they have no defenses to their respective
obligations under the Loan Documents and the Additional Documents, any and all
such defenses being hereby irrevocably waived, released and relinquished.
Borrower, New GP and Lessee agree that this Agreement does not diminish, impair,
release or relinquish the liens, powers, titles, security interests and rights
securing or guaranteeing payment of the Loan, including the validity or first
priority of the liens and security interests encumbering the Property granted
Lender by the Loan Documents and the Additional Documents.

     15. NONWAIVER. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) any
         ---------
performance or non-performance of the Loan Documents prior to the date of this
Agreement does not affect or diminish Lender's ability to require future
compliance with the Loan Documents, and (b) in the future, Lender will require
strict compliance with and performance of the Loan Documents. Nothing contained
herein shall be construed as a waiver of any of Lender's rights or remedies with
respect to any default under this Agreement, any Additional Documents or any
Loan Document.

     16. BANKRUPTCY OF BORROWER, NEW GP AND LESSEE. Borrower covenants and
         -----------------------------------------
agrees that in the event Borrower shall (i) file any petition with any
bankruptcy court or be the subject of any petition under the United States
Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq., the "Code"), (ii) file or be the
                                       ------
subject of any petition seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition,
readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under any present or
future federal or state act or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or other
relief for debtors, (iii) have sought or consented to or acquiesced in the
appointment of any trustee, receiver, conservator, or liquidator, or (iv) be the
subject of any order, judgment, or decree entered by any court of competent
jurisdiction approving a petition filed against such party for any
reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation,
dissolution, or similar relief under any present or future federal or state act
or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or relief for debtors, Lender shall
thereupon be entitled, and Borrower irrevocably consents, to the entry of an
order by a bankruptcy court granting to Lender relief from any automatic stay
imposed by Section 362 of the Code, or otherwise, on or against the exercise of
the rights and remedies otherwise available to Lender as provided in the Loan
Documents, this Agreement, the Additional Documents or as otherwise provided by
law or in equity, and Borrower irrevocably waives its right to object to,
attempt to enjoin or otherwise interfere with such relief and the exercise and
enforcement by Lender of its rights and remedies following entry of such order.
Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, Borrower
agrees that Lender will be entitled to and it consents to immediate relief from
the automatic stay imposed by the Code to allow Lender to take any and all
actions necessary, desirable or appropriate to enforce any rights Lender may
have under the Loan Documents or the Additional Documents, including, but not
limited to, the right to possession of the Property, collection of rents, and/or
the commencement or continuation of an action to foreclose Lender's liens and
security interests. Borrower further agrees that the filing of any petition for
relief under the Code which postpones, prevents, delays or otherwise hinders
Lender's efforts to collect the amounts due under the Note or to liquidate any
of the collateral therefor shall be deemed to have been filed in bad faith and,
therefore, shall be subject to prompt dismissal or conversion to a liquidation
case under the Code upon motion therefor by Lender. Further, Borrower agrees
that it will not seek, apply for or cause the entry of any order enjoining,
staying, or otherwise prohibiting or interfering with Lender's obtaining an
order granting relief from the automatic stay and enforcement of any rights
which Lender may have under the Loan Documents or the Additional Documents,
including, but not limited to, Lender's right to possession of the Property,
collection of rents

                                       11

arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar
relief under any present or future federal or state act or law relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, or other relief for debtors, (iii) have sought or
consented to or acquiesced in the appointment of any trustee, receiver,
conservator, or liquidator, or (iv) be the subject of any order, judgment, or
decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction approving a petition filed
against such party for any reorganization, arrangement, composition,
readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under any present or
future federal or state act or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or relief
for debtors, Lender shall thereupon be entitled, and New GP irrevocably
consents, to the entry of an order by a bankruptcy court granting to Lender
relief from any automatic stay imposed by Section 362 of the Code, or otherwise,
on or against the exercise of the rights and remedies otherwise available to
Lender as provided in the Loan Documents, this Agreement, the Additional
Documents or as otherwise provided by law or in equity, and New GP irrevocably
waives its right to object to, attempt to enjoin or otherwise interfere with
such relief and the exercise and enforcement by Lender of its rights and
remedies following entry of such order. Without limiting the generality of the
immediately preceding sentence, New GP agrees that Lender will be entitled to
and it hereby consents to immediate relief from the automatic stay imposed by
the Code to allow Lender to take any and all actions necessary, desirable or
appropriate to enforce any rights Lender may have under the Loan Documents or
the Additional Documents, including, but not limited to, the right to possession
of the Property, collection of rents, and/or the commencement or continuation of
an action to foreclose Lender's liens and security interests. New GP further
agrees that the filing of any petition for relief under the Code which
postpones, prevents, delays or otherwise hinders Lender's efforts to collect the
amounts due under the Note or to liquidate any of the collateral therefor shall
be deemed to have been filed in bad faith and, therefore, shall be subject to
prompt dismissal or conversion to a liquidation case under the Code upon motion
therefor by Lender. Further, New GP agrees that it will not seek, apply for or
cause the entry of any order enjoining, staying, or otherwise prohibiting or
interfering with Lender's obtaining an order granting relief from the automatic
stay and enforcement of any rights which Lender may have under the Loan
Documents or the Additional Documents, including, but not limited to, Lender's
right to possession of the Property, collection of rents and/or the commencement
or continuation of an action to foreclose Lender's liens and security interests
under the Loan Documents or the Additional Documents.

     Lessee covenants and agrees that in the event Lessee shall (i) file any
petition with any bankruptcy court or be the subject of any petition under the
Code, (ii) file or be the subject of any petition seeking any reorganization,
arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar
relief under any present or future federal or state act or law relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, or other relief for debtors, (iii) have sought or
consented to or acquiesced in the appointment of any trustee, receiver,
conservator, or liquidator, or (iv) be the subject of any order, judgment, or
decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction approving a petition filed
against such party for any reorganization, arrangement, composition,
readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under any present or
future federal or state act or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or relief
for debtors, Lender shall thereupon be entitled, and Lessee irrevocably
consents, to the entry of an order by a bankruptcy court granting to Lender
relief from any automatic stay imposed by Section 362 of the Code, or otherwise,
on or against the exercise of the rights and remedies otherwise available to
Lender as provided in the Loan Documents, this Agreement, the Additional
Documents or as otherwise provided by law or in equity, and Lessee irrevocably
waives its right to object to, attempt to enjoin or otherwise interfere with
such relief and the exercise and enforcement by Lender of its rights and
remedies following entry of such order. Without limiting the generality of the
immediately preceding sentence, Lessee agrees that Lender will be

                                       12

<PAGE>

entitled to and it hereby consents to immediate relief from the automatic stay
imposed by the Code to allow Lender to take any and all actions necessary,
desirable or appropriate to enforce any rights Lender may have under the Loan
Documents or the Additional Documents, including, but not limited to, the right
to possession of the Property, collection of rents, and/or the commencement or
continuation of an action to foreclose Lender's liens and security interests.
Lessee further agrees that the filing of any petition for relief under the Code
which postpones, prevents, delays or otherwise hinders Lender's efforts to
collect the amounts due under the Note or to liquidate any of the collateral
therefor shall be deemed to have been filed in bad faith and, therefore, shall
be subject to prompt dismissal or conversion to a liquidation case under the
Code upon motion therefor by Lender. Further, Lessee agrees that it will not
seek, apply for or cause the entry of any order enjoining, staying, or otherwise
prohibiting or interfering with Lender's obtaining an order granting relief from
the automatic stay and enforcement of any rights which Lender may have under the
Loan Documents or the Additional Documents, including, but not limited to,
Lender's right to possession of the Property, collection of rents and/or the
commencement or continuation of an action to foreclose Lender's liens and
security interests under the Loan Documents and/or the Additional Documents.

     17. COMPLIANCE WITH INTEREST LAW. It is the intention of the parties hereto
         ----------------------------
to conform strictly to any present or future law which has application to the
interest and other charges under the Loan Documents (the "Interest Law").
Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, the
parties hereto agree that the aggregate amount of all interest or other charges
taken, reserved, contracted for, charged or received under the Loan Documents or
otherwise in connection with the Loan shall under no circumstances exceed the
maximum amount of interest allowed by the Interest Law. If any excess interest
is provided for in the Loan Documents, then any such excess shall be deemed a
mistake and canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited
against the indebtedness evidenced and secured by the Loan Document (the
"Indebtedness") (or if the Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, refunded
by Lender), and the effective rate of interest under the Loan Documents shall be
automatically reduced to the maximum effective contract rate of interest that
Lender may from time to time legally charge under the then applicable Interest
Law with respect to the Loan. To the extent permitted by the applicable Interest
Law, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or
detention of the Indebtedness shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread
throughout the full term of the Loan.

     18. FURTHER ASSURANCES. The parties hereto agree to do any act or execute
         ------------------
any additional documents required by Lender, from time to time, to effectuate
the purposes of this Agreement or to better assure, convey, assign, transfer,
perfect or confirm unto Lender the property and rights intended to be given it
in the Loan Documents and the Additional Documents. In furtherance of and
without limiting or diminishing anything in the foregoing, Borrower and New GP
covenant and agree that Borrower shall deliver to Lender on or before April 29,
2002 evidence in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender (a) that
New GP is qualified to do business in California, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois,
Michigan, Missouri and Ohio, (b) that Lessee is qualified to do business in
Illinois and Ohio, (c) that AHM Res I GP, Inc. (the general partner of lessee)
is qualified to do business in Illinois and Ohio, and (d) that appropriate
required documentation has been filed in Delaware, California, Colorado,
Georgia, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri and Ohio evidencing that New GP is the new
general partner of Borrower (collectively, the "Post Closing Items"). Borrower
and New GP acknowledge that following Lender's receipt and review of each of the
Post Closing Items, Lender may reasonably require the delivery of additional
documentation, information or revisions to the Loan Documents to address matters
raised thereby and Borrower and New GP acknowledge and agree that the
requirements of this paragraph shall not be deemed satisfied until all of the
Post Closing Items, and all of such additional documentation, information or
other matters or Loan Document revisions as Lender may require following receipt
thereof, are delivered to Lender and approved by Lender. Borrower and New GP
further acknowledge and

                                       13

<PAGE>

agree that the failure to comply with the terms of this paragraph on or before
April 29, 2002 shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement and
the other Loan Documents. Further, Borrower and New GP acknowledge and agree
that Borrower shall remain responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by
Lender in connection with the satisfaction of the Post Closing Items.

     19. LIABILITY. If any party hereto consists of more than one person, the
         ---------
obligations and liabilities of each such person hereunder shall be joint and
several. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns forever.

     20. SEVERABILITY. If any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement is
         ------------
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, this Agreement
shall be construed without such term, covenant or condition and the validity or
enforceability of the remaining terms, covenants or conditions shall not in any
way be affected.

     21. APPLICABLE LAW; JURISDICTION. This Agreement shall be governed and
         ----------------------------
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (other than those
conflicts of laws provisions that would defer to the substantive laws of another
jurisdiction). Without in any way limiting the preceding choice of law, the
parties elect to be governed by New York law in accordance with, and are relying
(at least in part) on, Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law of the
State of New York. The parties hereto submit to personal jurisdiction in the
state courts located in said state and the federal courts of the United States
of America located in said state for the enforcement of any obligations
hereunder and waive any and all personal rights under the law of any other state
to object to jurisdiction within such state for the purposes of any action,
suit, proceeding or litigation to enforce such obligations.

     22. NO RESTRICTIONS ON PERFORMANCE. The execution and delivery of this
         ------------------------------
Agreement and compliance with the provisions hereof, will not conflict with, or
constitute a breach of or a default under any agreement or other instrument to
