	Re:
	Golf Trust of America, Inc.: Amendment to Employment Agreement,

Assignment of Pledged Shares and Forgiveness of Loan

Dear
Brad: 

        With
reference to that certain (i) Second Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (the "Employment Agreement") dated February 25, 2001, by and between you and Golf Trust of America,
Inc. (the "Company"), (ii) Master Pledge Agreement dated February 26, 2001, by and between you and the Company (the "Pledge Agreement"), and (iii) the non-recourse Master Promissory Note dated
February 26, 2001 executed by you for the benefit of the Company (the "Note" and together with the Employment Agreement and Pledge Agreement, the "Agreements"), and in consideration of the modified
obligations of the respective parties hereto, you (the "Executive") and the Company hereby agree as follows: 

        1.    Base Salary.    Section 4(a) of the Employment Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows: 

Base Salary.    As of March 22, 2004, the Executive's base salary is $381,654.47 (the "March 2004 Base Salary"). In consideration of various
factors, certain of which are discussed above, the following shall be applicable: (i) effective as of April 1, 2004, the Company shall pay the Executive 75% of the March 2004 Base Salary per calendar
year, or $286,240.85, to be prorated for the Executive's partial year's service, if applicable (the "April 2004 Base Salary"), and (ii) effective as of January 1, 2005, the
Company shall pay the Executive 50% of the March 2004 Base Salary per calendar year, or $190,827.24, to be prorated for the Executive's partial year's service, if applicable. The Executive's base
salary payments made pursuant to this Section shall be paid according to the standard payroll practices of the Company (regarding, e.g., timing of
payments, standard employee deductions, income tax withholdings, social security deductions, and etc.) as in place from time to time. 

        2.    Time Commitment.    Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3(c) and 9(a) of the Employment Agreement, as a
result of the reduction in Executive's March 2004 Base Salary as set forth in Section 1 of this letter agreement, the Executive shall be required to devote such amount of Executive's full working time
and attention to the Company and its business as the circumstances may reasonably require. 

        3.    Loan and Pledged Shares.    

        3.1    Representation regarding Pledged Shares.    The Executive hereby represents that the Executive has full right,
title and interest in and to the Pledged Shares (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) and the Executive has not transferred, pledged or hypothecated such Pledged Shares other than pursuant to the
Pledge Agreement. 

        3.2    Assignment of the Pledged Shares.    In consideration for the Company's agreements in Section 3.3 of this
letter agreement, the Executive: (i) hereby assigns to the Company good and marketable title to the Pledged Shares, together with any and all proceeds of the Pledged Shares, including, without
limitation, any and all dividends, income, interest and distributions earned from or attributable to the investment or deposit of the Pledged Shares, and (ii) shall execute and deliver to the Company
the attached stock power certificate (and such other 

 

documents
as may be necessary to cause such transfer of the Pledged Shares to the Company) as of the Effective Date (defined on the signature page to this letter agreement). 

        3.3    Forgiveness of Loan and Interest.    Provided that the Company shall have received good and marketable title to
the Pledged Shares, the Company hereby: 

        3.3.1 forgives
(i) the Company's original loan to the Executive pursuant to the Note in the amount of $1,150,319.95 (which amount is defined as the "Original Principal
Amount" under the Note and the "Initial Funds" under the Pledge Agreement), (ii) all Additional Advances (as defined in the Note), and (iii) all accrued interest on (i) and (ii); and 

        3.3.2 cancels
the Note. 

        4.    Pledge Agreement.    Upon the parties' performance of their respective obligations in this letter agreement, the
Pledge Agreement shall terminate. 

        5.    Milestone Payment.    The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Executive is entitled to the performance
milestone payment described in Section 4.A.(b)(i)(B) of the Employment Agreement in the amount of $1,233,907, plus accrued interest, and (ii) no outstanding conditions to payment of such performance
milestone payment exist. 

        6.    Employment Agreement.    Except as expressly amended and/or restated by this letter agreement, the Employment
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 

        If
the foregoing correctly reflects our understandings, please execute this letter agreement and return a duly executed copy thereof to the undersigned. 

	

        Thank you.	
 	

 
	

 	
 	

Sincerely,

Exhibit 10.22.1  

 
 

LOAN AGREEMENT    
    

        THIS LOAN AGREEMENT (this "Loan Agreement") dated the 18th day of March 2004 is made and executed by and between  TEXTRON FINANCIAL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Textron"), and GTA STONEHENGE, LLC, a South
Carolina limited liability company ("Borrower"). 

 
 

RECITALS    
    

        A.    Pursuant
to the terms of a certain loan commitment dated March 1, 2004, ( the "Commitment"), Textron has agreed to advance to Borrower a revolving loan in the principal
amount of up to Two Million One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,100,000.00) (the "Revolving Loan"). The Loan is evidenced and/or secured by (a) the Commitment; (b) a first lien Leasehold
Mortgage, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing ("Leasehold Mortgage") from Borrower to Textron, of even date herewith encumbering Borrower's leasehold interest in and to certain real properties (the
"Real Property") located in Richland County, South Carolina, and described more particularly in the Leasehold Mortgage and encumbering certain personal property described more particularly on Exhibit
"B" (the "Personal Property", with the Real Property and Personal Property being collectively referred to as the "Property") to the Leasehold Mortgage; (c) an Assignment of Leases, Rents and Contracts
of even date herewith assigning Borrower's interest in the leases and rents from the Property (the "Assignment"); (d) a Revolving Promissory Note of even date herewith by Borrower in favor of Textron
in the principal amount of up to Two Million One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,100,000.00) (the "Revolving Note") (e) a Mortgage, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing of even date herewith
from Guarantor ( the "Mortgage") and; (f) such other documents which recite that they have been given as security for the Revolving Note (all the aforementioned documents shall herein be referred to
as "Security Documents"). The Revolving Note is guaranteed by Golf Trust of America, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Guarantor"), pursuant to that certain Guaranty Agreement dated of even date
herewith executed by Guarantor (the "Guaranty"). The Note, the Leasehold Mortgage, the Assignment, the Security Documents, the Mortgage, and the Guaranty are collectively called the "Loan Documents". 

        B.    The
Commitment provides that the Loan will be disbursed to Borrower in advances, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent. Concurrently herewith,
Textron is advancing to Borrower the initial advance in the amount of One Million Ninety Thousand Four Hundred Eighty Eight Dollars and 02/100 ($1,090,488.02) (the "First Advance"). 

        C.    Textron
and Borrower now wish to enter into this Loan Agreement, inter alia, to set forth the terms and conditions upon which Textron will make Advances of the Loan to
Borrower after the First Advance. 

        NOW,
THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the promises and covenants herein contained, as well as the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00) and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, Textron and Borrower agree as follows: 

        1.    Revolving Loan and Agreement to Advance.    Subject to the terms hereof, all or part of the principal amount
evidenced by the Note may be borrowed (and to the extent any principal amount advanced is repaid by Borrower, such sum may be borrowed again) prior to the maturity date hereof, but only in accordance
with this Loan Agreement and only if Borrower is not in default under the Note or any of the other documents securing or executed in connection with the Note. At no time however, shall the outstanding
principal balance at any point in time under this Note exceed the $2,100,000.00; provided, furthermore, under no circumstance shall the outstanding principal balance at any time exceed the amount
permitted under this Loan Agreement. Upon the written request of Borrower, and upon the satisfaction of each of the conditions hereafter set forth, Textron agrees to advance to Borrower additional
advances of the Loan in excess of the First 

 

Advance
(each a "Revolver Advance" and, collectively the "Revolver Advances", with the First Advance and Revolver Advances being collectively referred to as the "Advances") in an amount equal to at
least One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) per advance (unless less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) remains to be advanced, in which event a lesser amount equal to the remaining
amount may be advanced), until the aggregate of the First Advance and the Revolver Advances outstanding at any time totals Two Million One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,100,000.00). 

        2.    Revolver Advances.    Textron's obligation to fund any Revolver Advance(s) shall be conditioned upon the
satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent with respect to each Revolver Advance: 

        (a)   Borrower
shall deliver to Textron a Compliance Certificate in form and content attached hereto as Exhibit A, signed by a duly authorized corporate officer of Borrower,
certifying that the information and statements therein are true and correct. 

        (b)   Borrower
shall have provided evidence satisfactory to Textron that (x) gross revenues attributable to the Property for the most recent twelve (12) month period have not
decreased from gross revenues from any prior twelve (12) month period by thirty percent (30%) or more and (y) Net Operating Income attributable to the Real Property during the most recent twelve (12)
month period has not decreased from Net Operating Income for any prior twelve (12) month period by twenty percent (20%) or more. Such evidence shall be in the form of the financial information
required pursuant to Section 1.12 of the Leasehold Mortgage. 

        (c)   Borrower
shall not be entitled to receive more than one Revolver Advance per thirty (30) day period. 

        (d)   There
shall not have occurred any Event of Default under the Leasehold Mortgage or any other Loan Document which has not been cured within any applicable cure period nor
shall there have occurred any event which with notice, the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default under the Leasehold Mortgage or any other Loan Document. 

        (e)   Borrower
shall have demonstrated a satisfactory payment history with respect to the Loan. 

        (f)    Textron
shall have determined that Borrower has not deferred any maintenance or otherwise limited expenses in order to achieve the required Debt Service Coverage Ratio. 

        (g)   Borrower
shall obtain and deliver to Textron, at Borrower's sole cost and expense, an endorsement to the mortgagee's policy of title insurance (the "Title Policy")
issued to Textron concurrently with the First Advance, which endorsement shall: (i) "down-date" the effective date of the Title Policy to the date of the requested Advance; and (ii) contain no
additional exceptions to coverage which were not included in the Title Policy. 

        Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that if any of certifications under the Compliance Certificate are not true and correct in all material respects, said event shall immediately constitute
a default under the Loan Documents and immediately entitle Textron to all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges that with respect to said event, it shall not have any
notice or cure period, except in for any misstatement that does not materially adversely affect the value or operation of the Property as determined by Textron ("Minor Breach"), in which case, Textron
agrees to allow Borrower 15 days after notice of the Minor Breach to cure said Minor Breach, or such longer period of time as reasonably deemed necessary if Textron determines said cure can not be
effectuated within 15 days. If Borrower fails to cure the Minor Breach within said cure period, then Borrower shall immediately pay back to Lender the funds disbursed to Lender in reliance upon the
Certificate containing the Minor Breach (excluding the initial advance), together with accrued interest on said 

2

 

amounts
based upon the Basic Interest Rate from the date of disbursement to the date the funds are returned. 

        3.    Security for Advances.    The Revolver Advance(s) made by Textron shall be evidenced by the Revolving Note and
shall be secured by the Leasehold Mortgage and the other Loan Documents. The amount of the Revolver Advance(s) shall bear interest pursuant to the terms of the Note, as of the date on which the
Revolver Advance(s) is disbursed by Textron to Borrower. 

        4.    Authority to Request Advances.    By execution of this Loan Agreement, Borrower authorizes Textron to make the
Revolver Advance(s) upon the written request of W. Bradley Blair, II, or such other individual as may hereafter be authorized in a written notice by Borrower to Textron (and Textron may rely on any
such designation without inquiring into its validity). Borrower agrees that: (a) Textron is not acting as agent or trustee for Borrower; (b) Textron will not be held accountable for any Revolver
Advance(s) made in good faith; (c) all Advances made prior to the receipt of written notice of revocation of any designation pursuant to this Section 3 shall be deemed advanced in good faith; and (d)
relocation of the agency granted herein by Borrower can be accomplished only by thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Textron. 

        5.    Unused Line Fee.    Borrower shall pay to Textron a monthly fee for the unused line (the "Unused Fee") in
arrears on the first day of each month for the immediately preceding month and on the maturity date. The amount of the Unused Fee shall be calculated by multiplying .25% per anum by the difference
between the Loan amount of $2,100,000.00 and the average of the outstanding balance of the Loan during the preceding month. 

        6.    Representations and Covenants.    

        (a)    Deposit Account.    Borrower represents and warrants that Borrower shall deposit into Borrower's operating
account maintained with Wachovia Bank, N.A. any and all funds, revenue and proceeds
received from the use and operation of the Property (the "Deposit Account"). Furthermore Borrower represents and covenants to use said funds strictly to pay only operating costs of the Property and
the rent payments due under the GTA Lease (as defined in the Leasehold Mortgage), unless Borrower otherwise receives Lender's written consent to use said funds for any other purpose, provided,
however, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Leasehold Mortgage or the Mortgage), Borrower shall no longer be permitted to withdraw any funds in said Deposit Account and Lender may
exercise any and all rights with respect to the Deposit Account under this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the Deposit Account Control Agreement. Borrower hereby pledges and assigns to Lender and
grants Lender the security interest in, all funds, revenues and proceeds now or hereafter deposited into the Deposit Account pursuant to the Pledge Agreement executed this day herewith. 

        (b)    Compliance with Laws and Permits.    The use of the Property as a golf course will not violate (i) any
applicable law, regulation, ordinance or order of any kind whatsoever (including any such laws relating to zoning, building and environmental protection), or (ii) any permit or license issued with
respect to the Property. The Property is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, ordinances and orders applicable thereto, including the applicable requirements of the Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended. Borrower shall comply with all building, zoning, permitting, fire, health, environmental, disability and use laws, codes, ordinances, rules and regulations, which
are in any way applicable to the Property, the improvements or any part thereof 

        (c)    Permits.    Borrower represents and covenants that all necessary and required franchises, licenses,
authorizations, registrations, permits and approvals for the use and occupancy of the Property have been obtained from all governmental authorities having 

3

 

jurisdiction
over the Property so as to permit the operation of the Property as herein contemplated. Borrower has provided Lender with true and correct copies of all of the certificates of occupancy
and other licenses, permits and approvals respecting the Property, and such permits and approvals remain in full force and effect without modification or exception. 

        7.    Recorded Documents.    Borrower shall, or cause Guarantor to, duly and punctually perform, observe and comply in
all material respects with all of the (i) covenants, conditions and restrictions of record, including but not limited to that certain Amended and Restated Club Access and Use Agreement, as amended by
those certain amendments to same evidenced by Amendment One, Amendment Two and Amendment Three, (ii) easements which are in any way applicable to the Real Property and the improvements located
thereon, (iii) the title encumbrances encumbering the real property that have been accepted by Textron's pursuant to the Textron's title policy and (iv) all agreements entered into or assumed by
Borrower by Guarantor in connection with the Real Property, and will not suffer or permit any default or event of default (giving effect to any applicable notice requirements and cure periods) to
exist under any of the foregoing. For purposes hereof the documents referenced in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above shall hereinafter collectively be referred to as the "Recorded
Documents". Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the occurrence of a default not cured under any applicable cure period under the Recorded Documents shall constitute a default
under the Loan Documents and entitle Textron to all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents. 

        8.    Disbursement of Advances.    At its option, Textron may make all or part of the Revolver Advance(s) to Borrower,
jointly to Borrower and any person or entity to whom payment of all or any portion of any of the Revolver Advance(s) is due, or directly to any person or entity to whom any such payment is due, and
any and all such disbursements shall be deemed disbursed under the Loan and for the benefit of Borrower on the date on which each such disbursement is made. The execution of this Loan Agreement by
Borrower shall, and hereby does, constitute an irrevocable direction and authorization to so advance the proceeds of the Loan as provided herein. No further direction or authorization from Borrower
shall be necessary to permit such direct advances, and all such direct advances shall satisfy pro tanto the obligations of Textron hereunder and shall be secured by the Loan Documents as fully as if
made directly to Borrower. 

        9.    Sole Benefit.    All conditions to Textron's obligations hereunder, including the obligation to make the
Revolver Advances, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Textron, its successors and assigns. No other person or entity shall have standing to require satisfaction of the conditions in
accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Textron will refuse to make the Revolver Advances in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of the conditions. Further, no other
person or entity shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Textron at any time if, in Textron's sole
discretion, Textron deems it desirable to do so. In particular, Textron makes no representations and assumes no obligations as to any persons or entities concerning the quality or condition of any of
the improvements now or hereafter constructed on the Real Property or the absence therefrom of defects. In this connection, Borrower shall indemnify Textron and shall defend and hold Textron harmless
from and against any and all liabilities, claims, losses, damages or expenses resulting from the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loan or from the condition of the Property. 

        10.    Acceptable Documents.    All documents, instruments and materials to be provided to Textron under this Loan
Agreement must be acceptable to Textron in its sole discretion, and the Revolver Advances shall not be made hereunder unless all of such conditions, instruments and materials are acceptable to Textron
in its sole discretion. For any condition of this Loan Agreement which requires the submission of evidence of the existence or non-existence of a 

4

 

specified
fact or facts, Textron shall, at all times, be free independently to establish to its satisfaction and in its absolute discretion such existence or non-existence. 

        11.    No Agency.    Textron is not the agent or representative of Borrower, and Borrower is not the agent or
representative of Textron, and nothing in this Loan Agreement or in any of the Loan Documents shall be construed to make Textron liable to anyone for goods delivered or services performed upon the
Property, or for debts or claims accruing against Borrower. Nothing herein shall be construed to create a relationship ex contractu, ex delicto, or otherwise between Textron and any person supplying
labor, materials or any other item to the Property. 

        12.    Debtor and Creditor.    Textron and Borrower intend that the relationship between them be that of creditor and
debtor only. Nothing herein nor the acts of the parties hereto shall be construed to create a co-tenancy, partnership, joint venture or similar relationship between Borrower and Textron. Textron shall
have no responsibility whatsoever for the debts, losses, obligations or duties of Borrower or the Golf Property. Borrower hereby indemnifies Textron and agrees to defend and hold Textron harmless from
and against any liability, claim, demand, obligation, assessment, loss, cost, damage or expense of any nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, any and all judgments, decrees, settlements,
awards, costs, expenses, attorneys' fees and court costs), which are incurred, sustained, suffered, asserted or assessed against Textron as a result of any claim, action suit or proceeding in which it
is alleged that Textron has liability to any person or entity because Textron and Borrower have a relationship other than or in addition to that of creditor and debtor. The provisions of this Section
8 shall survive the repayment of the Loan. 

        13.    Assignment.    This Loan Agreement may be endorsed, assigned and transferred in whole or in part by Textron,
and any such holder and assignee of this Loan Agreement shall succeed to and be possessed of the rights of Textron under this Loan Agreement to the extent transferred and assigned. This Loan Agreement
may not be endorsed, assigned or transferred by Borrower. 

        14.    Guarantor's Consent.    Guarantor hereby joins into this Agreement to consent to the terms and conditions
hereof, including, but not limited to the terms of Section 6(a) hereof. 

        15.    Entire Agreement.    THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL OTHER INSTRUMENTS, DOCUMENTS AND AGREEMENTS EXECUTED AND DELIVERED
IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT EMBODY THE FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND SUPERSEDE ANY AND ALL PRIOR COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER
WRITTEN OR ORAL, RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED OR VARIED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS WITH THE PARTIES HERETO. THERE ARE
NO ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL SUPERSEDE AND CONTROL OVER THE SIMILAR PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN THE COMMITMENT. 

        16.    Notices.    All notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been duly given and received if delivered in
accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3.7 of the Leasehold Mortgage. Notice provisions contained therein and relating (i) to Borrower thereunder shall be applicable to Borrower, and (ii)
to Textron thereunder shall be applicable to Textron. 

        17.    Waiver of Conditions.    Any condition imposed herein by Textron may, in Textron's sole discretion, be waived
by Textron in a writing specifying the condition waived. No waiver of any condition shall, unless said waiver so states, constitute a waiver of the condition in question in the future. Further, no
advance of the proceeds of the Loan shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions of Textron's obligation to make further advances of the Loan. 

5

 

        18.    Headings.    The headings of the Sections of this Loan Agreement are for the convenience of reference only, are
not to be considered a part hereof and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof. 

        19.    Conflict.    In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any other terms of the Loan
Documents, the terms of this Agreement shall govern and control. 

        20.    Further Acts.    Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to Textron from time to time such certifications as
Textron may reasonably request with respect to the performance by Borrower of its obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents. In addition, Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to
Textron from time to time such other documents and instruments as may be reasonably requested in order to effectuate the terms of this Agreement. 

        21.    Partial Invalidity.    Wherever possible, each provision of this Loan Agreement shall be interpreted in such
manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Loan Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Loan Agreement. 

        22.    Time of Essence.    Time shall be of the essence with respect to any payment or performance due from Borrower
hereunder. 

        23.    Gender.    Whenever the singular and plural number, or the masculine, feminine or neuter gender is used herein,
it shall legally include the other. 

        24.    No Amendments.    Neither this Loan Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged,
modified or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge, modification or termination is sought. 

        25.    Governing Law.    This Loan Agreement has been executed and delivered in, and shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of, the State of South Carolina. Borrower and Textron acknowledge that they have both participated in the drafting of this Loan Agreement and that neither Textron
nor Borrower shall be entitled to the benefit of the legal principle that a document is to be construed against its draftsman.

    Borrower's Compliance Certificate    
    

        Borrower hereby certifies, represents and warrants to Textron in connection with a requested Revolver Advance in the amount of
$                  pursuant to the
terms of the Loan Agreement as to the following items: 

        (a)   The
Borrower has sufficient cash flow to meet a Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined below) of at least 1.30 for the most recent twelve (12) months immediately
preceding the month of this Revolver Advance. As used herein, the term "Debt Service Coverage Ratio" means the ratio of "Net Operating Income" for the previous twelve (12) months to "Annual Debt
Service". The term "Net Operating Income" means all of Borrower's income from the operation and management of the Property after deducting all operating expenses, but before deducting income taxes,
depreciation, and annual debt service. The term "Annual Debt Service" means all principal, interest and other payments due by Borrower on all indebtedness of Borrower, including, without limitation,
the Loan and the requested Revolver Advances, and shall be calculated based upon the greater of 8% or the Interest Rate (as defined in the Note) at the time of the Revolver Advance. For purposes of
calculating the Debt Service Coverage Ratio, operating expenses shall be deemed to include (i) capital improvements (or a reserve therefor) in the amount of two percent (2%) of annual gross revenue
from the collateral securing the Loan (the "Collateral"), and (ii) management compensation in an amount equal to the greater of management compensation actually paid or three percent (3%) of annual
gross revenues from the Collateral. 

        (b)   Borrower's
(x) gross revenues attributable to the Property for the most recent twelve (12) month period have not decreased from gross revenues from any prior twelve (12)
month period by thirty percent (30%) or more and (y) Net Operating Income attributable to the Real Property during the most recent twelve (12) month period has not decreased from Net Operating Income
for any prior twelve (12) month period by twenty percent (20%) or more. To the extent requested byTextron, Borrower shall provide such evidence of same in the form of the financial information
required pursuant to Section 1.12 of the Leasehold Mortgage. 

        (f)    There
has been no material adverse change in the business or financial condition (and physical condition with respect to the Property) of Borrower, the Property or
Guarantor. 

        (g)   All
warranties and representations contained in the Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the date hereof. 

        (h)   Borrower
represents that no work has been done for which a construction or mechanic's lien exist which has not been paid for in full. 

        (j)    Borrower
has not deferred any maintenance or otherwise limited expenses in order to achieve the required Debt Service Coverage Ratio.

        Borrower
acknowledges that this Compliance Certificate is given to induce Textron to extend a Revolver Advance ( as defined in the Loan Agreement between Borrower and Textron) and
Textron is relying on same in extending said Revolver Advance.
