&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the Company will pay down the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan by approximately $3.8 million;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the Company will continue to pay Lender approximately $236,000 per month in principal and interest, and will continue funding reserve accounts in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•default interest will continue to accrue and will be payable upon a Termination Event (as defined in the Forbearance Agreement); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the property will remain in cash management.

In the event that any of Borrower Parties shall take any action constituting a Debtor Proceeding, and such action causes Lender to seek necessary or appropriate relief: (i) Lender shall thereupon be entitled to and Borrower irrevocably consents to (a) the relief from any automatic stay imposed by Section 362 of Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise, on or against the exercise of the rights and remedies otherwise available to Lender as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Property and as otherwise provided by law, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any right to object to such relief, and acknowledges that no reorganization in bankruptcy is feasible and (b) an order from the bankruptcy court prohibiting Borrower's use of all "cash collateral" (as defined in Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code); (ii) Borrower waives its exclusive right pursuant to Section 1121(b) of the Bankruptcy Code to file a plan of reorganization and irrevocably agrees and consents that Lender may file a plan immediately upon the entry of an order for relief if an involuntary petition is filed against Borrower or upon the filing of a voluntary petition by Borrower; (iii) in the event that Lender shall move pursuant to Section 1121(d) of the Bankruptcy Code for an order reducing the 120 day exclusive period, Borrower shall not object to any such motion, and (iv) Borrower waives any rights it may have pursuant to Section 108(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Lender shall immediately become entitled, among other

------

relief to which Lender may be entitled under the Loan Documents, and at law or in equity, to obtain an order from the court dismissing such filing as a bad faith filing and Borrower agrees that it will take no action to oppose the entry of such order of dismissed or to dispute a finding of fact by the court that such filing was made in bad faith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.5**<u>Further Assurances</u>**. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender any agreements, instruments, documents, financing statements and other writings as may be reasonably requested from time to time by Lender to perfect and to maintain the perfection of Lender's security interest in and to the Property and to consummate the transactions contemplated by or in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

**ARTICLE 4** **<br><u>FORBEARANCE</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1**<u>Forbearance</u>**. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and provided no Termination Event occurs, Lender agrees not to (a) take any steps to obtain a judgment or judgments against Borrower, (b) conduct a foreclosure sale of the Property encumbered by the Loan Documents or (c) exercise any other of Lender's remedies set forth in the Loan Documents with respect to the Maturity Default, HMA Amendment or New Operating Lease, in each case on or prior to June 1, 2026 ("**Forbearance Expiration Date**"). The period from the Maturity Date through the Forbearance Expiration Date shall be referred to as the "**Forbearance Period**." The forbearance by Lender, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, is referred to as the "**Forbearance Covenant**". Borrower agrees that the Forbearance Covenant does not relate or extend to any actions that Lender may take under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, in equity or at law to the extent necessary to preserve and protect the Collateral or the interests of Lender in the Collateral, including, without limitation, (i) the filing of actions, or the defending of or intervention in actions (such as foreclosure proceedings) brought by third parties or by Borrower relating to the Collateral or the interests of Lender therein which are not expressly subject to the Forbearance Covenant or (ii) the sending of notices to any persons or entities concerning the existence of security interests or liens in favor of Lender relating to the Collateral.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.2**<u>Forbearance Payments</u>**. During the Forbearance Period, Borrower shall be required to pay as forbearance payments to Lender (i) the regular monthly mortgage payments of principal and interest that would have been due under the Loan Documents if the Maturity Date had not occurred on each Payment Date in the amount of $235,996.61 (each, a "**Monthly Forbearance Payment Amount**"), and (ii) all monthly deposits of all Reserve Funds that would have been due under the terms of the Loan Documents if the Maturity Date had not occurred on each Payment Date (together with the Monthly Forbearance Payment Amount, collectively, "**Forbearance Payments**"). For purposes of this Agreement, "**Payment Date**" shall mean the first (1st) day of each calendar month and if such date is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be made on the first Business Date preceding such Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.3**<u>Deferred Default Interest</u>**<u>.</u> Notwithstanding the Forbearance Payments required by **<u>Section 4.2</u>** or any other provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, as of and following the Effective Date and during the Forbearance Period, interest on the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall accrue at the Default Rate ("**Deferred Default Interest**"). Provided that no Termination Event has occurred following the Effective Date,

------

Borrower shall pay all amounts due under the Loan and Loan Documents, including the Deferred Default Interest on or before the Forbearance Expiration Date. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event after the Effective Date, all Deferred Default Interest shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower, together with all other amounts due under the Loan Documents. The Deferred Default Interest shall accumulate on a monthly basis without being capitalized (i.e., on a simple, non-compounding basis and without being added to the principal indebtedness for purposes of calculating debt service). For the avoidance of doubt, the Deferred Default Interest shall for all purposes constitute a part of the Debt.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.4**<u>Nature and Effect of Forbearance Payments</u>**. The Forbearance Payments as actually received by Lender shall be held by Lender or applied by Lender against the Debt in such manner and at such time as Lender may in its sole discretion deem appropriate, except as otherwise set forth herein. Borrower acknowledges and agrees, however, that the Forbearance Payments received by Lender shall be accepted by Lender to be applied in accordance herewith as only partial payment of the Debt, which Debt is and shall at all times remain due and payable in full in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Lender's receipt and/or application of the Forbearance Payments as partial payment against the Debt (i) shall not be deemed to reinstate the Loan nor cure any existing default and (ii) except as otherwise herein expressly provided, shall not constitute a waiver of any of the rights and remedies of Lender under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, in equity or at law with respect to any existing default or any other default.

**ARTICLE 5** **<u><br>MODIFICATIONS TO LOAN DOCUMENTS</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1**<u>Reserve Funds</u>**<u>.</u> During the Forbearance Period, Borrower shall continue to make (i) all required monthly deposits of Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds in accordance with the existing terms of the Loan Agreement and the Cash Management Agreement, and (ii) monthly deposits of FF&E Reserve Funds in accordance with Section 9.2 of the Loan Agreement. The insufficiency of Reserve Funds shall not diminish, modify, or reduce Borrower's obligations to pay for any FF&E, Operating Expenses and/or Extraordinary Expenses and/or pay and complete any required Capital Expenditures at the Property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2**<u>Cash Management</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Cash Management; Continuance of Cash Sweep Period During Remaining Term of Loan</u>. Borrower Parties acknowledge and agree that a Cash Sweep Period has commenced and is continuing as of the Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the existing Loan Documents, the existing Cash Sweep Period shall remain in effect during the Forbearance Period until such time as the Loan has been indefeasibly paid in full. Borrower shall continue to deposit, or cause to be deposited, all revenue generated by the Property into the Deposit Account. All funds on deposit in the Deposit Account shall be disbursed and transferred to the Cash Management Account for so long as the Loan is outstanding. Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that it has caused (i) the Deposit Account, the Cash Management Account and any other accounts required under the Cash Management Agreement to be established and opened, as required by the Loan Agreement and any other applicable Loan Documents, and (ii) Lender to be granted a perfected first priority security interest in such accounts. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower shall have no right to effect a cure of the Cash Sweep Period.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Reaffirmation of Cash Management Provisions; Cash Management Waterfall</u>. Without limitation of the foregoing, Borrower reaffirms and confirms all of the terms and provisions of the Cash Management Agreement, as amended by that certain Amendment to Cash Management Agreement dated as of October 8, 2020, by and among Borrower, Lender, Manager, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, a national banking association ("**Cash Management Bank**") (the "**CMA Amendment**"), and the cash management provisions of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as amended by this Agreement. Provided there has been no subsequent Event of Default or Termination Event after the Execution Date, on the first (1st) day of each calendar month after the Execution Date (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately succeeding Business Day), funds in the Cash Management Account shall be disbursed in accordance with the CMA Amendment (the "**Cash Management Waterfall**"). All references to the Cash Management Agreement herein and in the other Loan Documents shall mean and refer to the Cash Management Agreement as amended by the CMA Amendment and as it may hereafter be amended in accordance with its terms. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower acknowledges that Borrower is responsible for monitoring the sufficiency of funds deposited in the Subaccounts (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) and Reserve Accounts and that Borrower is liable for any deficiency in available funds, irrespective of whether Borrower has received any account statement, notice or demand from Lender. If, on the 1st of each calendar month following the Execution Date, the amount of the available funds in the Cash Management Account is insufficient to make all of the disbursements provided for in clauses (a) through (e) of the Cash Management Waterfall (the amount of such deficiency, a "**Shortfall**"), then on or prior to such Payment Date, Borrower shall without the need for any notice or demand from Lender, either (i) pay to Lender the Shortfall in immediately available funds for deposit into the Cash Management Account, and/or (ii) request that a Shortfall be funded from the Excess Cash Reserve Account pursuant to Section 5.2(c) below; provided, however, Borrower remains obligated to pay such Shortfall to the extent Lender does not approve the payment of such Shortfall.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>Disbursements from the Excess Cash Reserve Account</u>. During the Forbearance Period, provided there is no Termination Event, in the event in any calendar month there is a Shortfall in the Cash Management Waterfall, provided each of the Disbursement Conditions (as hereinafter defined) has been satisfied, Lender may, in its sole discretion, disburse funds held in the Excess Cash Reserve Account, to the extent of available funds therein, to Borrower or transfer such funds to the applicable Subaccount or Reserve Fund (but not more often than once per month), for payment of a Shortfall. As used herein, the "**Disbursement Conditions**" shall mean the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)Borrower has submitted a request for disbursement to Lender at least five (5) Business Days prior to the applicable Payment Date that is accompanied by an officer's certificate certifying that (A) a Shortfall exists in the amount set forth in such request, together with detailed back up documentation substantiating the Shortfall for which the applicable request relates and evidencing the payment of any prior Shortfall funding for which Lender has approved the release of funds from the Excess Cash Reserve Account, (B) all amounts that are the subject of such request have been previously paid by Borrower or will be paid from the proceeds of the requested disbursement, (C) with respect to Extraordinary Expenses, including a reasonably detailed explanation of such proposed Extraordinary Expense, (D) such funds will be

------

used only to pay for an existing Shortfall, and (E) no Event of Default or Termination Event has occurred and is continuing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3**<u>Annual Budget</u>**. The Annual Budget for the Property through December 31, 2026 attached hereto as **Exhibit "A"** has been approved by Lender (the "**Approved Budget**" together with any future Annual Budget approved by Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents) and all future budgets of income and expenses for the Property shall be prepared by Borrower in good faith and in accordance with generally accepted and sound real estate accounting standards applied on a consistent basis and subject to Lender's sole approval, not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed, and shall be submitted to Lender for such approval no later than thirty (30) days prior to the start date thereof. Borrower shall operate the Property in accordance with the most recent Approved Budget.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.4**<u>Operating Expense Reconciliations</u>**. Within ten (10) days after the end of each calendar month ("**Monthly Report**") and within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter ("**Quarterly Reconciliation**"), Borrower shall deliver to Lender a statement and accounting certified as true, correct and complete from the chief financial officer or other authorized person of Borrower with knowledge and responsibility for such matters (each a "**Reconciliation Certificate**"), certifying (a) the actual amount of Operating Expenses paid by Borrower (the "**Actual Expenditures**") during the immediately preceding calendar month or calendar quarter, as applicable, (b) the amounts, if any, disbursed from the Borrower's account during the prior calendar month or calendar quarter, as applicable, with a detailed breakdown by line item, and (c) the account balance of such working or operating account of Borrower as of such date of certification. Such Reconciliation Certificate shall: (i) identify the amount, if any, by which the sums distributed to Borrower from the Cash Management Account for Operating Expenses set forth on the Approved Budget on each Payment Date during the immediately preceding calendar month or calendar quarter, as applicable, exceed the Actual Expenditures paid by Borrower during such calendar month or calendar quarter, as applicable, and with respect to monthly reconciliations, on a trailing thirty (30) day basis (the aggregate amount reported for the quarterly period pursuant to the Quarterly Reconciliation is a "**Distribution Surplus**"), (ii) identify the amount, if any, by which Borrower paid Actual Expenditures during the prior quarter or month, as applicable, in excess of the sums distributed to Borrower from the Cash Management Account for Operating Expenses set forth on the Approved Budget on each Payment Due Date during the prior month or quarter, as applicable (the aggregate amount reported for the quarterly period pursuant to the Quarterly Reconciliation is a "**Distribution Shortfall**"), (iii) be in a form reasonably acceptable to Lender, and (iv) provide such evidence of Actual Expenditures as may be reasonably requested by Lender in order to verify any applicable component of the Distribution Shortfall or Distribution Surplus. On the Payment Date following Lender's receipt of a Quarterly Reconciliation with all supporting documentation required by Lender, and provided no Termination Event or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period, Lender will make or cause to be made the following adjustments ("**Reconciliation Adjustments**") to the Operating Expenses set forth in the Approved Budget and budgeted for disbursement in such month pursuant to the Cash Management Waterfall ("**Monthly Approved Operating Expenses**"): (A) in the event of any Distribution Surplus, the amount thereof shall be deducted from the Monthly Approved Operating Expenses budgeted to be disbursed on the next Payment Date; and (B) in the event of a Distribution Shortfall, the amount of such Distribution Shortfall approved in writing by Lender based on the Quarterly Reconciliation

------

shall be added to the Monthly Approved Operating Expenses budgeted to be disbursed on the next Payment Date from funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account, but only to the extent funds are available in the Cash Management Account. If sums in the Cash Management Account are not sufficient to fund the amount of any Distribution Shortfall approved by Lender, then such shortfall shall be funded on the next following Payment Date on which funds are available in the Cash Management Account. Should Lender in good faith dispute any Actual Expenditures set forth on the Reconciliation Certificate and such dispute is not resolved between the parties, the disputed expenditure will not be included in the Reconciliation Adjustments unless or until resolved by Lender and Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Borrower shall obtain Lender's prior written consent prior to payment of any operating expenses which exceed the budgeted line item amount for such expense set forth in the Approved Budget; provided that, such Approved Budget may be adjusted to reflect (A) actual increases in Property Taxes, Insurance Premiums, utilities expenses and expenses under the Management Agreement and (B) up to five percent (5%) increases in any budgeted line items provided such increases do not exceed a five percent (5%) increase in the Annual Budget in the aggregate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.5**<u>Accounts Payable</u>**. Borrower shall not at any time create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any accounts payable to trade creditors arising out of purchases of goods or services in the ordinary course of business except to the extent that (i) each such account payable is payable not later than sixty (60) days after the original invoice date according to the original terms of sale, and (ii) each such account payable is not overdue by more than sixty (60) days according to the original terms of sale. Any breach of this Section following any applicable notice, grace or cure period under the Loan Documents shall constitute an Event of Default and Termination Event under the Loan Documents. Borrower shall be personally liable to Lender for any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation incurred by Lender (including attorneys' fees and costs reasonably incurred) arising out of or in connection with the failure to pay the accounts payable in full as required hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.6**<u>Payment of Debt</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Except as otherwise provided in the Loan Agreement or Section 5.6(b) below, on a Payment Date, Borrower may, at its option, and upon at least twenty (20) days prior notice to Lender, prepay the Debt in whole but not in part (including, without limitation, all Deferred Default Interest which Deferred Default Interest shall be prorated to the date of payment) so long as no Termination Event has occurred after the Effective Date and no prepayment premium, penalty or other similar fee shall be due in connection with any such prepayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Without limiting Section 7.2 of this Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Termination Event after the Effective Date and demand by Lender with respect to any Receivership Proceedings and/or Foreclosure Proceedings, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower will execute and deliver to Lender a joint or agreed stipulation, consent or similar documentation appropriate for the jurisdiction in which the Property is located for entry of an order appointing a Receiver and for final judgment of foreclosure (collectively, a "**Stipulation**"), which provides for the entry of an order appointing a Receiver ("**Receivership Order**"), if required by Lender, and a final and non-appealable judgment of foreclosure (the "**Foreclosure Judgment**"), as well as, if required by Lender, specifying the total amount of the Loan and all other obligations of Borrower to Lender under the Loan Documents. Upon execution and delivery of a Stipulation by Borrower, Lender may immediately proceed in accordance with the Stipulation to have the Receivership Order entered and/or the Foreclosure Judgment entered in the applicable Foreclosure Proceeding and/or Receivership Proceeding, and Borrower Parties shall fully cooperate with Lender to effect entry of the Receivership Order and the Foreclosure Judgment and shall not oppose entry of either.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Except as may be required by applicable law or the applicable court, Borrower Parties agree that they have no right to appear or be heard regarding the ex parte application for a Receivership Order or a Foreclosure Judgment pursuant to a Stipulation or the exercise by Lender of any other right or remedy under this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents (Borrower Parties waive and renounce any such right to appear or be heard and waive and renounce any right that might be conferred by the laws of the applicable state or any other applicable law or rule which would require that a Receivership Order or a Foreclosure Judgment be entered other than through ex parte proceedings to the extent permitted by applicable law); provided, however, if Lender determines that appearance by Borrower would be beneficial to obtaining a Receivership Order and/or a Foreclosure Judgment, Borrower shall make such appearance but without the right to contest Lender's obtaining the Receivership Order or Foreclosure Judgment.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Except as may be required by applicable law or the applicable court, the absence of Borrower from any hearing (in chambers or in open court) which may be conducted to consider Lender's application to obtain a Receivership Order or a Foreclosure Judgment or the exercise by Lender of any other right or remedy, under this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents shall not in any way limit Lender's right to obtain or enforce a Receivership Order and/or a Foreclosure Judgment or to exercise any such other rights and remedies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)None of Borrower Parties has any right (all such rights being waived) to collaterally attack any Receivership Order or Foreclosure Judgment or to make any attempts to open or otherwise challenge by any means whatsoever any Receivership Order or Foreclosure Judgment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)Each of Borrower Parties has waived and does waive any and all rights to require that Lender proceed in any particular order in connection with Lender's enforcement of other rights and remedies under this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.4**<u>Consensual Sale</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event after the Effective Date, at Lender's sole discretion and upon direction to Borrower, Borrower or, in Lender's sole discretion, Receiver (to the extent a Receiver has been appointed with respect to the Property in any Foreclosure Proceeding and/or Receivership Proceeding) shall actively and continuously market and seek to sell the Property ("**Consensual Sale**") through (i) a third party broker that is experienced in selling assets similar to the Property in the same market as the Property which is not affiliated with Borrower or any principal or sponsor of Borrower (the "**Listing Broker**") approved by Lender in its sole discretion and with which Borrower or Receiver shall, within twenty (20) days thereafter, enter into a listing agreement in a form acceptable to Lender in its absolute discretion (the "**Listing Agreement**"), requiring the Listing Broker to promptly undertake to market the Property on an as-is, where-is basis, in a manner customarily utilized for properties similar to the Property in the same market as the Property, all as approved by Lender or as otherwise directed by Lender in its sole discretion, (ii) an on-line auction company (the "**Auction Company**") approved by Lender in its sole discretion, and with which Borrower or Receiver shall, within twenty (20) days thereafter, enter into an auction marketing agreement in form acceptable to Lender, in its absolute discretion (the "**Auction Marketing Agreement**"), requiring Auction Company to promptly undertake to market the Property on an as-is, where-is basis, in a manner customarily utilized for properties similar to the Property in the Auction Company's auction process, or (iii) in any other fashion approved by Lender in its sole discretion, all as may be permitted by applicable law. The Listing Agreement and Auction Marketing Agreement, as applicable, shall provide that copies of all notices given by the Listing Broker and Auction Company to Borrower or Receiver thereunder shall be given to Lender and, if Borrower executed the Listing Agreement and the Auction Marketing Agreement, to Borrower. Absent Lender's prior written consent, Borrower and Receiver shall not amend or modify any of the terms of the Listing Agreement or Auction Marketing Agreement or assign any of its rights thereunder. Borrower Parties shall cooperate with Receiver, if applicable, and the Listing Broker in connection with the marketing and Consensual Sale

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)In connection with a Consensual Sale pursuant to this Section 7.4, Borrower or Receiver shall submit or cause the Listing Broker to submit all proposals, expressions of interest, letters of intent or similar offers for the purchase of the Property ("**Offers**") to Lender and to provide Lender with such other information as Lender may request with respect to the background, financing, ownership or financial wherewithal of the potential purchaser(s) (each, a "**Potential Purchaser**"), to the extent the same is obtainable. Borrower, Receiver or Lender, all at Lender's sole discretion, shall pursue such Offers as Lender, in its sole discretion, shall determine and negotiate in a reasonably diligent manner the final terms and conditions of an agreement to sell the Property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event after the Effective Date, neither Borrower nor Receiver shall sell the Property or accept any offer to purchase the Property or any interests therein, absent Lender's prior written consent in its sole discretion, in the event the Consensual Sale of the Property involves (A) the assumption and/or modification of the Loan or (B) any discounted payoff of the Loan. Lender's consent shall not be required in connection with the Consensual Sale of the Property to a bona fide purchaser that will result in the payment in full of the Loan. Borrower agrees that (x) in connection with any proposed Consensual Sale, (1) Lender may in its sole and absolute discretion agree to allow any Potential Purchaser deemed by Lender in its sole discretion to be qualified purchasers and investors to assume the Loan, subject to Lender's review and approval of such Potential Purchaser, including, without limitation, its creditworthiness and experience, and (2) in connection with an assumption of the Loan, Lender may in its sole and absolute discretion agree to various amendments to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the extension of the Loan maturity date, a change in the interest rate, a reduction of the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan and changes to the reserves and escrows for the Loan) in favor of such Potential Purchaser (it being acknowledged and agreed that Lender shall have no obligation to offer to modify the Loan Documents in favor of Borrower and that Lender may elect to agree to certain amendments in favor of certain parties and not others) and (y) Lender may in its sole and absolute discretion elect to approve a Consensual Sale of the Property to a Potential Purchaser in the event the sales proceeds to be paid in connection therewith are less than the amounts due under the Loan and in the event of multiple offers may elect to approve a Consensual Sale to a Potential Purchaser notwithstanding that the sales price payable in connection therewith is less than the sales price payable in connection with any other potential transaction (it being understood and agreed that Lender may consider multiple factors in approving any proposed Consensual Sale, including, without limitation, the creditworthiness and experience of the Potential Purchaser in the event such Potential Purchaser will assume the Loan); and Borrower agrees that Lender Parties shall not incur any liability as a result of any actions taken under clause (x) and/or (y) above and that no such actions shall be used as a defense to Borrower's obligations hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Borrower shall retain any federal, state and local income tax benefits and burdens resulting from any Consensual Sale or discounted payoff of the Loan, if any is consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.5**<u>Conveyance Documents</u>**. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event or an Event of Default after the Effective Date and in connection with a Foreclosure Judgment, or a Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure or a Consensual Sale, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender or its designee or a Potential Purchaser all documents necessary to convey to Lender or its designee or

As further consideration of and as a material inducement to Lender to enter into this Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Termination Event or an Event of Default after the Effective Date, upon the occurrence of a Termination Event or an Event of default after the Effective Date, Borrower shall not Interfere with or oppose Lender in and hereby consents to any (i) action to quiet title, if any, which may be instituted by Lenders and/or any title company on behalf of Lender to perfect its right, title and interest in the Property, and (ii) Lender or its designee substituting into any condemnation proceedings with respect to the Property, if any.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.6**<u>Property Materials</u>**. Following a Termination Event, if a vesting document for the Property is issued or executed and delivered to Lender or its designee in connection with a Foreclosure Proceeding, promptly upon request by such acquiring party, Borrower shall deliver, transfer and/or pay to Lender, the following, all to the extent in Borrower's or Borrower's property manager's possession and/or control as to all or any portion of the Property acquired by Lender or its designee: (i) possession of the Property, including all tangible personalty located on, or in, or attached to, or used in connection with the hotel and/or Property, (ii) the originals (or true and correct copies, if the originals are not available) of all guaranties and warranties given with respect to all or any portion of the Property or any improvement located thereon which Borrower has in its possession, (iii) the originals (or true and correct copies, if the originals are not available) of all service contracts, franchise agreements and management agreements then in effect with respect to the Property, (iv) the originals (or true and correct copies, if the originals are not available) of all plans, specifications, working drawings and surveys of or relating to the Property or to the construction of the buildings and related improvements located thereon, (v) the originals (or true and correct copies, if the originals are not available) of all governmental consents, approvals, licenses (including, but not limited to, liquor licenses), permits, certificates of occupancy, zoning approvals, building permits and similar documents relating to the Property, (vi) copies of all books and records in any way relating to the Property, (vii) the balance of any funds in any security deposit accounts and any and all other tenant security deposits, any and all advance room rentals, pre-paid rent or reservation deposits paid by tenants, customers (i.e., related to banquet services/facilities) or hotel guests, or similar fees (if any), (viii) the originals (or true and correct copies, if the originals are not available) of all termite or other inspection reports, bonds, warranties and guaranties relating to the Property, (ix) any and all income from the Property received by or on behalf of Borrower and then being held by or on behalf of Borrower Parties, which may include
