                 ---------------------------------------------

     Pursuant to Section 78.1955 of the Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS"), the
undersigned, being the President and Secretary, respectively, of Reading
Entertainment, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Corporation"), hereby certify
that (a) the following resolution was duly adopted on November 19, 1999, by the
Board of Directors (the "Board"), for the purposes of establishing two separate
series of the Corporation's authorized preferred stock, $.001 par value
("Preferred Stock"), designated as Series A Voting Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock and Series B Voting Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock and
fixing the relative rights and preferences of such series of such Preferred
Stock, and (b) such resolution has not been subsequently modified or rescinded:

     RESOLVED, that in accordance with the provisions of Article Fourth of the
Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, two series of Preferred Stock be,
and hereby are, created, and the voting powers, designations, preferences,
limitations, restrictions and relative, participating, optional or other special
rights of the shares of each such series, and the qualifications, limitations or
restrictions thereof, be, and hereby are, as follows:

1.   DESIGNATIONS AND NUMBERS OF SHARES

     Seventy thousand (70,000) shares of the Preferred Stock of the Corporation
are hereby constituted as a series of Preferred Stock, $.001 par value per
share, and designated as "Series A Voting Cumulative Convertible Preferred
Stock" (hereinafter called the "Series A Stock") and five hundred fifty thousand
(550,000) shares of the Preferred Stock of the Corporation are hereby
constituted as a series of Preferred Stock, $.001 par value per share, and
designated as "Series B Voting Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock"
(hereinafter called the "Series B Stock;" the
<PAGE>

Series A Stock and the Series B Stock are hereinafter collectively called the
"Convertible Preferred Stock").

2.   LIQUIDATION

     Upon any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of
the Corporation (a "Liquidation"), the holder of each share of each series of
Convertible Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of
the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders,
before any distribution of assets shall be made to the holders of common stock
of the Corporation ("Common Stock") or to the holders of other stock of the
Corporation that ranks junior to such series of Convertible Preferred Stock in
respect to distributions upon a Liquidation of the Corporation ("Junior Stock"),
an amount equal to $100 per share (the "Stated Value"), plus an amount equal to
all dividends (whether or not declared or due) accrued and unpaid on such share
on the date fixed for distribution of assets of the Corporation to the holders
of the Convertible Preferred Stock.  The Series B Stock shall rank junior to the
Series A Stock in right to distributions on a Liquidation and shall be "Junior
Stock" with respect to the Series A Stock.  Neither a consolidation or merger of
the Corporation with or into any other entity, nor a merger of any other entity
with or into the Corporation, nor a sale or transfer of all or any part of the
Corporation's assets for cash or securities or any other property, shall be
considered a Liquidation.  Written notice of any Liquidation shall be given to
the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock not less than thirty days prior
to any payment date stated therein.

3.   DIVIDENDS

     3.1.  The holders of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors and to the extent
permitted in the NRS, but only out of funds legally available for the payment of
dividends, cumulative dividends at the annual rate of $6.50 per each share of
Series A Stock, and at the annual rate of $6.50 per each share of Series B Stock
(plus the amounts specified in Section 3.3 hereof) ("Regular Dividends"), in
each case before any dividends or other distributions (other than dividends in
Common Stock or any other stock which ranks junior in respect to such series of
the Convertible Preferred Stock in respect to dividends) are paid to the holders
of the Common Stock or any other stock which is Junior Stock with respect to
such series. The Series B Stock shall rank junior to the Series A Stock in right
to dividends and shall be "Junior Stock" with respect to the Series A Stock.
Such dividends shall accumulate on each share from the date of its original
issuance and from day to day and shall be payable (subject to declaration by the
Board of Directors and to the extent permitted by the NRS and the existence of
funds legally available for the payment of such dividends) in equal quarterly
installments on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year
(except that, if such date is not a business day, the dividend shall be payable
on the first immediately succeeding business day); provided, however, that the
initial quarterly dividend payment payable on any share of Convertible Preferred
Stock shall be the amount specified in Section 3.3 hereof plus an amount equal
to the product determined by multiplying the Regular Dividend for a quarter by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from (but not including)
the date of issuance of such share to the end of the dividend quarter during
which such share of

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Convertible Preferred Stock is issued and the denominator of which is the total
number of days in such dividend quarter.

     3.2.  Dividends at the rate specified in Section 3.1 hereof shall
accumulate whether or not they have been declared and whether or not the funds
are legally available for the payment of dividends.

     3.3.  Regular Dividends for the initial quarter on any share of Convertible
Preferred Stock shall include any dividends which, as of the Effective Date (as
that term is defined in that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated November
19, 1999, by and between the Corporation and Reading Entertainment, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("REI-Delaware"), whereby the parties agreed to merge REI-
Delaware with and into the Corporation) were accrued and unpaid on the share of
preferred stock of REI-Delaware which was converted into such share of
Convertible Preferred Stock in such merger.

     3.4.  To the extent any dividends on the Convertible Preferred Stock
accumulate and are in arrears, such dividend shall not bear interest.

4.   CONVERSION RIGHTS

     4.1.  (a)  Shares of Series A Stock may be converted, at the option of the
holder thereof, in whole or in part, upon delivery of a certificate representing
such shares to the Corporation, together with a notice specifying the number of
shares to be converted (the date of such delivery, or of delivery of shares of
Series B Stock on conversion thereof as hereinafter provided, is hereinafter
referred to as the "Conversion Date" (i) at any time after the date which is 18
months after October 15, 1996 (the date of the original issuance of shares of
Series A Voting Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B Voting
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "REI-Delaware Preferred Stock") of
REI-Delaware) (the "Original Issue Date"), or (ii) at any time prior to the
later of (A) the 90th day after the earliest event constituting a Change in
Control (as hereinafter defined) or (B) the 30th day after the consummation of
the transaction the announcement of which constituted such Change in Control
(the period from the date of such Change in Control to the later of such 90th or
30th day being the "Change in Control Period").  A "Change in Control" shall
mean the occurrence of either of the following events:  (x) any person, entity
or "group" (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder) other than Craig Corporation, a
Delaware corporation, and its successors and affiliates (collectively, "Craig"),
shall publicly announce or disclose having entered into a transaction as a
result of which such person, entity or group would acquire beneficial ownership
of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock or securities entitling such
person, entity or group to cast 50% or more of the votes entitled to be cast at
any regular election of directors of the Corporation (where "affiliate" of a
person means a person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under
common control with such person and "control" means the power to direct the
affairs of such person by reason of ownership of voting securities, contract or
otherwise) or (y) the directors of the Corporation as of the Original Issue Date
(the "Current Directors") and any future directors (the "Continuing Directors")
elected or nominated by a majority of the Current Directors or Continuing
Directors cease to constitute a majority of the Board of Directors.

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

           (b)  Shares of Series B Stock may be converted, at the option of the
holder thereof, in whole or in part, upon delivery of a certificate representing
such shares to the Corporation, together with a notice specifying the number of
shares to be converted, at any time after the date which is 18 months after the
Original Issue Date.

           (c)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of shares of Convertible
Preferred Stock may not convert any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock that
have been called for redemption after 5:00 p.m. Los Angeles, California, time,
on the date for such redemption.

     4.2.  Each share of Series A Stock shall be convertible into shares of the
Corporation's Common Stock at a conversion price of $11.50 per share (as
adjusted, the "Series A Conversion Price"), subject to certain adjustments as
described below; and each share of Series B Stock shall be convertible into
shares of the Corporation's Common Stock at a conversion price of $12.25 per
share (as adjusted, the "Series B Conversion Price;" the Series A Conversion
Price and the Series B Conversion Price are each hereinafter referred to as a
"Conversion Price"), subject to certain adjustments as described below.  The
number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered on conversion of any shares of
Convertible Preferred Stock shall equal the aggregate Stated Value thereof
divided by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect, calculated to the
nearest 1/100th of a share, subject to Section 4.5.  Except as provided in
Section 4.7, the Corporation shall make no payment or adjustment on the account
of any unpaid cumulative dividends on the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock
surrendered for conversion or on account of any dividends on the Common Stock.

     4.3.  If the Corporation shall (a) pay a dividend or make a distribution on
its outstanding shares of Common Stock in shares of its Common Stock, (b)
subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then each Conversion
Price in effect immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted so that the
holder of any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock thereafter surrendered for
conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of capital stock of
the Corporation which he would have owned immediately following such action had
such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock been converted immediately prior
thereto. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall become effective
immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and
shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a
subdivision, combination or reclassification. The Corporation shall give notice
to the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock of any adjustment pursuant to
this Section 4.3 (stating the adjusted Conversion Prices and the reasons
therefor) not less than ten days prior to the record date for such dividend,
distribution, subdivision, combination or reclassification.

     4.4.  If the Corporation shall consolidate or merge into or with another
corporation, or if the Corporation shall sell or convey to any other person or
persons all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, or shall
issue by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock any shares of capital
stock of the Corporation, each holder of Convertible Preferred Stock then
outstanding shall have the right thereafter to convert each share of Convertible
Preferred Stock held by him into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other
securities, cash and property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale
or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which
such share might have been converted immediately prior to such consolidation,
merger, sale or conveyance, and shall have no other conversion rights. In

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

any such event, effective provision shall be made, in the articles of
incorporation of the resulting or surviving corporation or otherwise or in any
contracts of sale and conveyance so that, so far as appropriate and as nearly as
reasonably may be, the provisions set forth herein for the protection of the
conversion rights of the shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall
thereafter be made applicable.

     4.5.  In connection with the conversion of any shares of the Convertible
Preferred Stock hereunder, no fractions of shares of Common Stock shall be
issued, but the Corporation shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such
fractional interest in an amount equal to a like fraction of an amount equal to
the closing sales price (the "Closing Price") of a share of the Corporation's
Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market System (or, if that shall not be the
principal market on which the Common Stock shall be trading or quoted, then on
such principal market) on the business day next preceding the Conversion Date.

     4.6.  The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of
its authorized Common Stock the full number of shares of Common Stock of the
Corporation issuable upon the conversion of that number of shares of the
Convertible Preferred Stock permitted to be converted into Common Stock
hereunder.

     4.7.  (a)  In the event that the average of the Closing Prices of the
Common Stock, over any 180 consecutive trading day period ending within 15 days
of the date of the notice provided for in Section 4.7(b) (each such Closing
Price having been adjusted in proportion to any adjustment in the Conversion
Prices made after the date of such Closing Price), exceeds 135% of the Series A
Conversion Price then in effect, the Corporation may, at its option, require the
holders of all, but not less than all, of the issued and outstanding shares of
Series A Stock to convert such shares into Common Stock of the Corporation at
the Series A Conversion Price.

           (b)  Not less than ten nor more than sixty days prior to the date
fixed for mandatory conversion of the Series A Stock pursuant to Section 4.7(a)
("Mandatory Conversion"), notice by mail, postage prepaid, shall be given to
each holder of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock required to be converted.
On or after the date fixed for Mandatory Conversion, as stated in such notice,
each holder of the shares required to be converted shall surrender his
certificate(s) evidencing such shares to the Corporation at the place designated
in such notice and shall thereupon be entitled to receive the shares of Common
Stock deliverable upon conversion plus any accrued and any unpaid dividends on
such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock. If such notice of Mandatory
Conversion shall have been duly given, and if, on the date fixed for Mandatory
Conversion, funds necessary for the payment of dividends, if any, shall be
available therefor, then, notwithstanding that the certificates evidencing any
shares required to be converted shall not have been surrendered, from and after
the date fixed for Mandatory Conversion, dividends with respect to the shares so
converted shall cease to accrue, the shares shall no longer be deemed
outstanding, the holders thereof shall cease to be holders of the shares of
Convertible Preferred Stock, all rights whatsoever with respect to the shares so
converted shall forthwith terminate except only the right of the holders to
receive the previously accrued dividends without interest thereon and the shares
of Common Stock deliverable on conversion, and such holders shall for all
purposes be deemed holders of such shares of Common Stock.

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

     4.8.  The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the
conversion of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be made without charge
to the holders of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock for any issue or stamp
tax in respect of the issuance of such certificates, and such certificates shall
be issued in the respective names of, or in such names as may be directed by,
the holders of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock converted; provided,
however, that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax which may be
payable in respect of transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such
certificate in a name other than that of the holder of shares of Convertible
Preferred Stock converted, and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or
deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the
issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or
shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has
been paid. If less than all of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock
represented by a certificate surrendered for conversion are converted, the
Corporation shall deliver to the holder of such shares a new certificate for the
shares not so converted.

     4.9.  The Corporation from time to time may reduce either Conversion Price
by any amount for any period of time in the discretion of the Board of
Directors.

     4.10. No adjustment in either Conversion Price shall be required unless
such adjustment would result in an increase or decrease of at least one percent
in such Conversion Price as then in effect; provided, however, that any
adjustments that by reason of this Section 4.10 are not required to be made
shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

5.   REDEMPTION

     5.1.  (a)  The shares of Series A Stock may be redeemed at the option of
the Corporation, in whole or in part, upon prior written notice of such
redemption given by the Corporation in accordance with Section 5.2 hereof at any
time prior to the later of (i) the 120th day after the earliest event
constituting a Change in Control and (ii) the 60th day after the consummation of
the transaction the announcement of which constituted such Change in Control, at
the Change in Control Redemption Price (as hereinafter defined); provided,
however, that the Corporation may not, pursuant to this sentence, redeem shares
of Series A Stock held by Citadel Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("Citadel"), or any of its affiliates unless, prior to or simultaneously with
such redemption, Craig assumes certain obligations of the Corporation as
provided in Section 4.1 of the Asset Put and Registration Rights Agreement,
dated the Original Issue Date, among the Corporation, Craig, Citadel, and
Citadel Acquisition Corp., Inc. (the "Put Agreement"), and provided further that
the Corporation may not redeem any shares of Series A Stock pursuant to this
sentence after the fifth anniversary of the Original Issue Date. In addition,
any or all of the shares of Series A Stock may be redeemed at the option of the
Corporation, upon prior written notice of such redemption given by the
Corporation in accordance with Section 5.2 hereof, at any time after the fifth
anniversary of the Original Issue Date, at the Standard Redemption Price (as
hereinafter defined). The "Change in Control Redemption Price" of each share of
Series A Stock at any date shall mean an amount equal to the sum of (x) the
Stated Value thereof, (y) an accrual on the Stated Value, from the Original
Issue Date to the date of redemption, at a percentage per annum (not compounded)
equal to eight percent if such redemption is on or before the fourth anniversary
of the Original Issue Date or

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

seven percent if thereafter, and (z) all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to
the date fixed for redemption; and the "Standard Redemption Price" of each share
of Convertible Preferred Stock at any date shall mean an amount equal to the
percentage for such date, as set forth below, of the Stated Value thereof, plus
an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the date fixed
for redemption:

</TABLE>

           (b) (i)   Subject to the provisions hereof, the holders of a majority
of the outstanding shares of Series A Stock (the "Requesting Holders") may
require that the Corporation purchase all, but (except as otherwise provided in
this Section 5.1(b) not less than all, of the outstanding shares of Series A
Stock held by the Requesting Holders and those other holders (the "Nonrequesting
Holders") who so request as provided below, by notice (the "Holders' Notice")
given by the Requesting Holders to the Corporation at any time (A) after 18
months after the Original Issue Date, if at the time of giving such notice the
quarterly dividends payable on the Series A Stock as provided in Section 3
hereof are in arrears in an aggregate amount equal to at least four full
quarterly dividends (which need not be consecutive, and which may include any
quarterly dividend periods on which dividends on the REI-Delaware Preferred
Stock were in arrears if not subsequently paid), or (B) within the 90-day period
beginning on the fifth anniversary of the Original Issue Date (but not, in the
case of this clause (B), after the exercise by Citadel of the Asset Put (as
defined in the Put Agreement)), in either case at a redemption price equal to
the Stated Value thereof plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the
date fixed for redemption. As promptly as practicable, and in any case within
ten days, after receipt of a Holders' Notice, the Corporation shall give a
notice to each Nonrequesting Holder, offering to redeem the shares of Series A
Stock held by such Nonrequesting Holder on the same terms, and subject to the
same limitations, as the shares held by the Requesting Holders, provided such
Nonrequesting Holder, within ten days of the Corporation's notice (the "Response
Period"), gives notice to the Corporation stating that such Nonrequesting Holder
desires to have his shares redeemed. The Nonrequesting Holders who do not elect
to have their shares redeemed shall have no subsequent right to require
redemption pursuant to this Section 5.1(b)(i).

               (ii)  Citadel may require that the Corporation purchase all, but
(except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.1(b)) not less than all, of the
outstanding shares of Series A Stock owned by it and its affiliates, by notice
given by it to the Corporation at any time during the Change in Control Period
(but not after the fifth anniversary of the Original Issue Date) at the Change
in Control Redemption Price.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

               (iii) As promptly as practicable, and in any case within ten
days, after the expiration of the Response Period, in the case of a redemption
pursuant to Section 5.1(b)(i), or the notice given by Citadel in the case of a
redemption pursuant to Section 5.1(b)(ii), the Corporation shall give a notice
of redemption pursuant to Section 5.2 and thereafter proceed to effectuate such
redemption as promptly as practicable.

               (iv)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at the time the
Corporation is required to redeem shares of the Series A Stock, the funds of the
Corporation legally available for such redemption are insufficient to redeem in
full the shares of the Series A Stock required to be redeemed, (A) the
Corporation shall utilize the funds legally available to redeem the maximum
number of such shares which can be legally redeemed and (B) the remaining such
shares shall remain outstanding and not be redeemed.

           (c)  The shares of Series B Stock may be redeemed at the option of
the Corporation, in whole or in part, at any time after the fifth anniversary of
the Original Issue Date, upon prior written notice of such redemption by the
Corporation in accordance with Section 5.2, at a per share redemption price
equal to the Standard Redemption Price thereof.

           (d)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation may not, pursuant
to Section 5.1(a) or 5.1(c), redeem less than all of the outstanding shares of a
series of Convertible Preferred Stock while any additional dividends are
accumulated and unpaid on such series pursuant to Section 3 hereof without first
declaring and paying all such additional dividends on such series.

           (e)  If fewer than all of the outstanding shares of a series of
Convertible Preferred Stock are to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 5.1
(other than pursuant to Section 5.1(b)(ii)), such shares shall be redeemed pro
rata from each holder of such series of Convertible Preferred Stock (with
adjustments to avoid redemptions of fractional shares).

    5.2.   (a)  Not less than thirty nor more than sixty days prior to the date
fixed for redemption, notice by mail, postage prepaid, shall be given to each
holder of shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock to be redeemed. The
redemption notice shall specify the date of redemption, the certificates to be
redeemed, and the applicable redemption price (the "Redemption Price"); but
failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof
shall not affect the validity of the proceeding for the redemption of any shares
so to be redeemed. On or after the date fixed for redemption, as stated in the
notice, each holder of the shares called for redemption shall surrender his
certificate(s) evidencing such shares to the Corporation at the place designated
in such notice and shall thereupon be entitled to receive payment of the
Redemption Price thereof. In case less than all of the shares of Convertible
Preferred Stock represented by any such surrendered certificate are redeemed, a
new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares.

           (b)  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if notice of
redemption shall be given as provided in Section 5.2(a) above and if, on or at
any time prior to the date fixed for redemption therein, an amount equal to the
Redemption Price times the number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock
called for redemption shall be deposited in trust for the benefit of the holders
of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock called for redemption with a bank
or

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

trust company having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million
according to its last published statement of condition, then, notwithstanding
that any certificates for shares of Convertible Preferred Stock so called for
redemption shall not have been surrendered for redemption, such shares shall be
deemed to be redeemed upon the date fixed for redemption and shall cease to be
outstanding for any purpose, the right to receive dividends thereon shall cease
to accrue from and after the date fixed for redemption and all rights of the
holders of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock called for redemption shall
forthwith on the date fixed for redemption cease and terminate except for the
right of the holders thereof, upon presentation and surrender of their
respective certificates representing such shares, to receive from such bank or
trust company on or after the date fixed for redemption the amount payable upon
the redemption thereof, but without interest. The Corporation shall be entitled
to any interest payable on the funds so deposited. Any funds so deposited and
otherwise unclaimed at the end of three years shall be repaid to the
Corporation, after which holders of the redeemed stock shall look only to the
Corporation for payment of the amount payable upon redemption thereof, but
without interest thereon.

6.  REACQUIRED SHARES

     Any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired
by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever or surrendered for conversion
hereunder shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with
respect to such shares of stock, including the right, if any, to receive
notices, shall forthwith cease except, in the case of stock surrendered for
conversion hereunder, rights of the holders thereof to receive Common Stock in
exchange therefor.  All shares of Convertible Preferred Stock obtained by the
Corporation shall be retired and canceled promptly after the acquisition
thereof.  All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but
unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued as part of a new series
of Preferred Stock subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set
forth herein, in the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation, or in any other
certificates of designations creating a series of Preferred Stock or any similar
stock or as otherwise required by law.

7.   VOTING RIGHTS

     7.1.  The holders of the shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall
initially be entitled to cast 9.64 votes per share held on all matters submitted
to a vote of the Corporation's stockholders. The number of votes entitled to be
cast per share of Convertible Preferred Stock shall be adjusted in inverse
proportion to any adjustment in the Conversion Prices.

     7.2.  Except as otherwise provided herein or by the NRS, the holders of
Convertible Preferred Stock and the holders of Common Stock shall vote together
as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of the Corporation's
stockholders.

     7.3.  (a)  In the event that the quarterly dividends payable on a series of
the Convertible Preferred Stock as provided in Section 3 hereof are in arrears
in an aggregate amount equal to at least six full quarterly dividends (which
need not be consecutive and which may include any quarterly dividend periods on
which dividends on the REI-Delaware Preferred Stock were in arrears if not
subsequently paid), the number of directors constituting the Board of

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

Directors shall be increased by one for each such series so in default and the
holders of each series of the Convertible Preferred Stock as to which dividends
are so in default shall have, in addition to the rights set forth in Sections
7.1, 7.2 and 7.4 hereof, the special right, voting separately as a single class,
to elect one director of the Corporation to fill such newly created directorship
at the next succeeding annual meeting of stockholders thereafter or at a special
meeting of the holders of such series of the Convertible Preferred Stock called
as hereinafter provided, until such right shall terminate as hereinafter
provided.

           (b)  At any time when the special voting rights provided in this
Section 7.3 shall have so vested in the holders of a series of the Convertible
Preferred Stock, the Secretary of the Corporation may, and upon the written
request of the holders of 25% or more of the number of shares of such series of
Convertible Preferred Stock then outstanding shall, call a special meeting of
the holders of such series of the Convertible Preferred Stock for the election
of the directors, to be held at the place and upon the notice provided by law
and in the Corporation's Bylaws for the holding of meetings of stockholders;
except that the Secretary shall not be required to call such a special meeting
in the case of any such request received less than 90 days before the date fixed
for the next annual or other special meeting of stockholders. No such special
meeting and no adjournment thereof shall be held on a date less than thirty days
before the annual meeting of the stockholders (or a special meeting held in
place thereof) next succeeding the time when the holders of such series of the
Convertible Preferred Stock become entitled to elect directors as provided in
this Section 7.3. The Corporation shall include, in any notice of such meeting,
any nominee for director who has been proposed by the holders of 25% or more of
the shares of such series of Convertible Preferred Stock then outstanding. The
directors so elected shall serve until the next annual meeting or until their
respective successors shall be elected and qualified.

           (c)  At each meeting of stockholders at which the holders of a series
of the Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the right to vote as a class, as
provided in this Section 7.3, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders
of a majority of the total number of shares of such series of the Convertible
Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute
a quorum of such class for such election by such stockholders as a class. At any
such meeting or adjournment thereof:

                (i)   the absence of a quorum of the holders of a series of the
Convertible Stock shall not prevent the election of directors other than those
to be elected by the holders of such series of the Convertible Preferred Stock
and the absence of a quorum of the holders of any other class of stock for the
election of such other directors shall not prevent the election of the directors
to be elected by the holders of a series of the Convertible Preferred Stock; and

                (ii)  in the absence of either or both such quorums, the holders
of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy of the respective
class or classes which lack a quorum shall have the power to adjourn the meeting
for the election of directors which they are entitled to elect from time to time
for a period of up to thirty days without notice, other than announcement at the
meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

           (d)  Each director elected by the holders of a series of the
Convertible Preferred Stock as provided in this Section 7.3 shall hold office
until the annual meeting of stockholders next succeeding his election or until
his successor, if any, is elected by such holders and qualified.

           (e)  If any vacancy shall occur among the directors elected by the
holders of a series of the Convertible Preferred Stock as provided in this
Section 7.3, such vacancy shall be filled for the unexpired portion of the term
by the vote of the stockholders of such series given at a special meeting of
such stockholders called for that purpose.

           (f)  Whenever all dividends accrued and unpaid on a series of the
Convertible Preferred Stock shall have been paid, the special right of the
holders of such series of the Convertible Preferred Stock to elect directors as
provided in this Section 7.3 shall terminate, but subject always to the same
provisions for the vesting of such special right of the holders of such series
of Convertible Preferred Stock to elect directors in the case of future unpaid
dividends as hereinabove provided.

           (g)  Any director elected by the holders of a series of Convertible
Preferred Stock may be removed by, and shall not be removed otherwise than by,
the vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of such series.

           (h)  Upon any termination of the right of the holders of a series of
the Convertible Preferred Stock to vote for directors as herein provided, the
term of office of all directors then in office elected by holders of such series
shall terminate immediately.

     7.4.  The consent of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding
shares of a series of Convertible Preferred Stock, voting separately as a single
class, in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or at a
special or annual meeting of stockholders called for the purpose, shall be
necessary to (i) create or issue any shares of a class of capital stock ranking,
either as to payment of dividends or distribution of assets, on parity with or
senior to such series of Convertible Preferred Stock, (ii) alter or change the
preferences, rights, designations or powers of the shares of such series of
Convertible Preferred Stock as a class, or the provisions of Article Fourth of
the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation, in either case so as to affect such
holders adversely, or (iii) increase the total number of authorized shares of
Convertible Preferred Stock.

8.   SINKING FUND

     The Corporation shall not be required to maintain any "sinking fund" for
the retirement on any basis of the Convertible Preferred Stock.

9.   HOLDERS; NOTICES

     The terms "holder" or "holders" wherever used herein with respect to a
holder or holders of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock shall mean the holder
or holders of record of such shares as set forth on the stock transfer records
of the Corporation.  Whenever any notice is required to be given under this
Certificate of Designation, such notice may be given personally

                                      -11-

Stock shall be sufficient if given to the holder of record of such share at the
last address set forth for such holder on the stock transfer records of the
Corporation. Any notice given by mail shall be deemed to have been given when

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, CITADEL REALTY, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
"Borrower"), promises to pay to the order of NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY,
an Ohio corporation, its successors and assigns (the "Lender"), the principal
sum of Eleven Million and 00/100 Dollars ($11,000,000.00), together with
interest on the principal balance of this Promissory Note (the "Note"), from
time to time remaining unpaid, from the date of disbursement by Lender hereof at
the applicable interest rate hereinafter set forth, together with all other sums
due hereunder or under the terms of the Deed of Trust (as hereinafter defined)
in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender in
payment of all debts at the time of such payment. Both principal and interest
and all other sums due hereunder shall be payable at the office of Lender at One
Nationwide Plaza, Columbus, Ohio 432 15-2220, Attention: Real Estate Investments
Department, or at such other place either within or without the State of Ohio as
Lender hereof may from time to time designate. Said principal and interest shall
be paid over a term, at the times, and in the manner set forth below, to wit:

PAYMENT PROVISION:
-----------------

     A.  Interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance of this Note, from and
including the date of disbursement hereof, to but not including January 1, 2000
at the rate of eight and eighteen hundredths percent (8.18%) per annum, shall be
due and payable on the date hereof.

     B.  Thereafter, monthly installments of principal and interest on the
unpaid principal balance of this Note at the rate of eight and eighteen
hundredths percent (8.18%) per annum, shall be due and payable in one hundred
nineteen (119) consecutive monthly installments commencing on February 1, 2000
and continuing on the first day of each calendar month thereafter, with each
such installment to be in the sum of Eighty-Six Thousand Two Hundred Fifteen and
59/100 Dollars ($86,215.59).

MATURITY:
--------

     The unpaid principal balance of this Note and all accrued unpaid interest
thereon, if not sooner paid, shall be due and payable in full on January 1, 2010
(the "Maturity Date").

APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS:
-----------------------

     All payments shall be applied first to the payment of accrued unpaid
interest on this Note and the balance, if any, shall be applied to the reduction
of the outstanding principal balance of this Note. Interest due hereunder shall
be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months;
provided however in no event shall such calculation cause the interest payable
under the terms of this Note to exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted
under applicable law.
<PAGE>

LATE PAYMENT CHARGE:
--------------------

     The Lender of this Note may collect a late payment charge, prior to the
acceleration of this Note, in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the
aggregate monthly installment which is not paid on the due date, for the purpose
of covering the extra expenses involved in handling delinquent installments and
such late charge shall accrue each month the payment is delinquent. Any payment
which is postmarked by the United States Postal Service or reputable national
overnight courier on or before the due date, is correctly addressed and bears
adequate first-class postage shall not be considered delinquent and a late
payment charge shall not be assessed. Borrower acknowledges that the late
payment charge is a fair and reasonable estimate, considering all of the
circumstances existing on the date of execution of this Note, of the cost the
Lender will incur by reason of such late payment.

PREPAYMENT:
-----------

     A.  Except as hereinafter provided, Borrower shall not have the right to
prepay all or any part of the obligation evidenced by this Note at any time.
Borrower shall have the right to prepay, in full but not in part, the obligation
evidenced by this Note upon giving (i) not less than thirty (30) days' prior
written notice to Lender of Borrower's intention to so prepay this Note, and
(ii) payment to Lender of the Prepayment Premium (as hereinafter defined), if
any, then due to Lender as hereinafter provided. As used herein, the term
"Prepayment Premium" shall mean a sum equal to the greater of (i) one percent
(1%) of the outstanding principal balance of this Note at the time of prepayment
or (ii) an amount equal to the sum of (a) the present value of the scheduled
monthly payments due under this Note from the date of prepayment to the Maturity
Date and (b) the present value of the amount of principal and interest of this
Note due on the Maturity Date (assuming all scheduled monthly payments due prior
to the Maturity Date were made when due), minus (c) the outstanding principal
balance of this Note as of the date of prepayment. The present values described
in (a) and (b) shall be computed on a monthly basis as of the date of prepayment
discounted at the yield-to-maturity rate of the U.S. Treasury Note or Bond
closest in maturity to the Maturity Date of this Note as reported in the Wall
                                                                         ----
Street Journal (or, if the Wall Street Journal is no longer published, as
--------------             -------------------
reported in such other daily financial publication of national circulation which
shall be designated by Lender) on the fifth (5th) business day preceding the
date of prepayment, expressed as a decimal equivalent. Borrower shall be
obligated to prepay this Note on the date set forth in the notice to Lender
required hereinabove, after such notice has been delivered to Lender.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision herein to the contrary, if
Lender elects to apply insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, or any escrowed
amounts, if applicable, to the reduction of the principal balance of this Note
in the manner provided in the Deed of Trust (as hereinafter defined), no
Prepayment Premium shall be due or payable as a result of such application and
the monthly installments due and payable hereunder shall be reduced accordingly.

     B.  In the event the Maturity Date of the indebtedness evidenced by this
Note is accelerated by Lender hereof at any time due to a default by Borrower in
the terms, covenants or

                                       2
<PAGE>

conditions contained in this Note, the Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan
Documents (as hereinafter defined), then a tender of payment in an amount
necessary to satisfy the entire outstanding principal balance and all accrued
unpaid interest on this Note made by Borrower, or by anyone on behalf of
Borrower, at any time prior to, at, or as a result of, a foreclosure sale or
sale pursuant to power of sale, shall constitute a voluntary prepayment
hereunder prior to the contracted Maturity Date of this Note thus requiring the
payment to Lender of a Prepayment Premium equal to the applicable Prepayment
Premium as set forth in paragraph (A) above; provided, however, that in the
event such Prepayment Premium is construed to be interest under the laws of the
State of California in any circumstance, such payment shall not be required to
the extent that the amount thereof, together with other interest payable
hereunder, exceeds the maximum rate of interest that may be lawfully charged
under applicable law.

     C.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, during the
one hundred twenty (120) day period immediately preceding the Maturity Date, the
outstanding principal balance and all accrued unpaid interest on this Note may
be prepaid in whole, but not in part, without incurring a Prepayment Premium.

     D.  Borrower hereby expressly (1) waives any right it may have under
California Civil Code (S) 2954.10 to prepay this Note in whole or in part,
without penalty, upon acceleration of the Maturity Date of this Note; and (2)
agrees that if a prepayment of any or all of this Note is made, following any
acceleration of the Maturity Date of this Note by Lender on account of any
transfer or disposition prohibited or restricted herein or by the Deed of Trust,
Borrower shall be obligated to pay, concurrently therewith, the applicable
Prepayment Premium as set forth in Paragraph (A) above. By initialing this
provision in the space provided below, Borrower hereby declares that Lender's
agreement to make the subject loan at the interest rate and for the term set
forth herein constitutes adequate consideration, given individual weight by the
undersigned, for this waiver and agreement.

                                                       INITIALS:__________

ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS:
----------------------

     This Note is secured by a Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents, Security
Agreement and Fixture Filing (hereinafter referred to as the "Deed of Trust")
and by an Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits (hereinafter referred to as
the "Assignment") of even date herewith encumbering certain real property
located in the City of Glendale, County of Los Angeles, State of California, and
other property as more particularly described in the Deed of Trust (hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Property"). The Deed of Trust and the
Assignment contain terms and provisions which provide grounds for acceleration
of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note together with additional remedies in
the event of default hereunder or thereunder. Failure on the part of Lender
hereof to exercise any right granted herein or in the Deed of Trust or the
Assignment shall not constitute a waiver of such right or preclude the
subsequent exercise and enforcement thereof if and to the extent such default
has not been previously cured. This Note,

                                       3
<PAGE>

the Deed of Trust, the Assignment and all other documents and instruments
executed as further evidence of, as additional security for, or executed in
connection with the indebtedness evidenced by this Note are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Loan Documents".

     Except as herein otherwise provided, all parties to this Note, including
endorsers, sureties and guarantors, hereby jointly and severally waive
presentment for payment, demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of demand
and of nonpayment or dishonor and of protest, notice of intent to accelerate the
maturity of this Note, notice of acceleration of maturity of this Note, and any
and all other notices and demands whatsoever, and agree to remain bound hereby
until the principal and interest of this Note are paid in full or Borrower's
obligations under the Note are otherwise satisfied, notwithstanding any
extensions of time for payment which may be granted by Lender, even though the
period of extension be indefinite, and notwithstanding any inaction by, or
failure to assert any legal rights available to Lender of this Note.

     If the obligations evidenced by this Note, or any part thereof, are placed
in the hands of an attorney for collection, whether by suit or otherwise, at any
time, or from time to time, Borrower shall be liable to Lender, in each
instance, for all costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith,
including, without limitation, Reasonable Attorneys' Fees (as hereinafter
defined).

DEFAULT:
-------

     If default shall be made in the payment of principal and/or interest as
stipulated above or in the payment of any other sums due hereunder or under any
of the other Loan Documents, or should any default be made in the performance of
any of the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein or in any of the
other Loan Documents, then in any or all of such events, at the option of
Lender, the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums advanced by Lender on
behalf of Borrower shall become and be immediately due and payable then or
thereafter as Lender may elect, regardless of the Maturity Date hereof. All such
amounts shall bear interest after acceleration at the lesser of either (i) the
highest rate of interest then allowed by the laws of the State of California or,
if controlling, the laws of the United States applicable to Lender or this Note,
or (ii) the then applicable interest rate of this Note plus five hundred (500)
basis points.

     During the existence of any default, Lender may apply any sums received,
including but not limited to, insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, to any
amount then due and owing hereunder or under the terms of any of the other Loan
Documents as Lender may determine. Neither the right nor the exercise of the
right herein granted unto Lender to apply such proceeds as aforesaid shall
preclude Lender from exercising its option to cause the entire indebtedness
evidenced by this Note to become immediately due and payable by reason of
Borrower's default under the terms of this Note or any of the other Loan
Documents.

     Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, Lender's right,
power and privilege to accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness evidenced
hereby shall be conditioned

                                       4
<PAGE>

upon, with respect to any Non-Monetary Default (as hereinafter defined), Lender
giving Borrower written notice of such Non-Monetary Default and a thirty (30)
day period after the date of such notice within which to cure such Non-Monetary
Default unless such Non-Monetary Default cannot reasonably be cured within said
thirty (30) day period, in which event Borrower shall have a reasonable period
of time to complete cure, provided that action to cure such Non-Monetary Default
is commenced within said thirty (30) day period and Borrower is, in Lender's
sole judgment, not diminishing or impairing the value of the Property, and is
diligently pursuing a cure to completion. Any notice required hereunder shall be
given as provided in the Deed of Trust. Lender shall have no obligation to give
Borrower notice of, or any period to cure any Monetary Default (as hereinafter
defined) or any Incurable Default (as hereinafter defined) prior to exercising
its right, power and privilege to accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness
evidenced hereby and to declare the same to be immediately due and payable and
exercise all other rights and remedies herein granted or otherwise available to
Lender at law or in equity. As used herein, the term "Monetary Default" shall
mean any default which can be cured by the payment of money including, but not
limited to, the payment of principal and/or interest due under this Note and the
payment of taxes, assessments and insurance premiums when due as provided in the
Deed of Trust. As used herein, the term "Non-Monetary Default" shall mean any
default which is not a Monetary Default or an Incurable Default. As used herein,
the term "Incurable Default" shall mean (i) any voluntary or involuntary sale,
assignment, mortgaging or transfer in violation of the covenants of the Deed of
Trust; or (ii) if Borrower, or any person or entity comprising Borrower, should
make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, become insolvent, or file a
petition in bankruptcy (including but not limited to, a petition seeking a
rearrangement or reorganization).

     Notwithstanding any provision of this Note to the contrary, during any
period of default and regardless of any cure period applicable to such default,
in each instance under this Note, the Deed of Trust, or any of the other Loan
Documents in which either (i) Borrower is permitted to take an action without
Lender's prior written consent or (ii) Lender's consent is to be exercised
reasonably, Lender's consent shall be required and shall be granted or withheld
in Lender's sole and absolute discretion.

     Notwithstanding any general provision of this Note or the other Loan
Documents to the contrary, whenever, under this Note or the other Loan
Documents, Lender is granted the right to take any action, or to refuse to take
any action upon the default of the Borrower, or failure of Borrower to perform
its obligations under the Loan Documents, then unless expressly provided to the
contrary, Lender shall not exercise such right until the expiration of
applicable cure periods expressly provided for in the Loan Documents.

SAVINGS CLAUSE: SEVERABILITY:
----------------------------

     Notwithstanding any provisions herein or in the Deed of Trust to the
contrary, the total liability for payments in the nature of interest, including,
but not limited to, Prepayment Premiums, default interest and late fees, shall
not exceed the limits imposed by the laws of the

                                       5
<PAGE>

State of California or the United States of America relating to maximum
allowable charges of interest applicable to Lender or this Note. Lender shall
not be entitled to receive, collect or apply, as interest on the indebtedness
evidenced hereby, any amount in excess of the maximum lawful rate of interest
permitted to be charged by applicable law or regulations, as amended or enacted
from time to time. In the event Lender ever receives, collects or applies, as
interest, any such excess, such amount which would be excessive interest shall
be applied to reduce the unpaid principal balance of the indebtedness evidenced
by this Note. If the unpaid principal balance of such indebtedness is paid in
full, any remaining excess shall be forthwith paid to Borrower. If any clauses
or provisions herein contained operate or would prospectively operate to
invalidate this Note, then such clauses or provisions only shall be held for
naught, as though not herein contained and the remainder of this Note shall
remain operative and in full force and effect.

EXCULPATION:
-----------

     Except as hereinafter provided, the liability of Borrower with respect to
the payment of principal and interest hereunder shall be "nonrecourse" and,
accordingly, Lender's source of satisfaction of said indebtedness and Borrower's
other obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be limited
to the Property and Lender's receipt of the rents, issues, and profits from the
Property and any other security or collateral now or hereafter held by Lender,
and Lender shall not seek to procure payment out of any other assets of
Borrower, or any person or entity comprising Borrower, or Borrower's employees,
principals or officers, nor to seek judgment (except as hereinafter provided)
for any sums which are or may be payable under this Note or under any of the
other Loan Documents nor any claim or judgment (except as hereafter provided)
for any deficiency remaining after foreclosure of the Deed of Trust.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein contained shall be deemed to be a
release or impairment of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note or the security
therefor intended by the other Loan Documents or be deemed to preclude Lender
from exercising its rights to foreclose the Deed of Trust or to enforce any of
its other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that
the aforesaid limitation on liability shall in no way affect or apply to
Borrower's continued personal liability for all sums due to:

     (1) fraud or material misrepresentation made in or in connection with this
Note or any of the other Loan Documents;

     (2) failure to pay taxes and assessments prior to delinquency, or to pay
charges for labor, materials or other charges which may create liens on any
portion of the Property;

     (3) the misapplication of (i) proceeds of insurance covering any portion of
the Property; or (ii) proceeds of the sale or condemnation of any portion of the
Property; or (iii) rentals received by or on behalf of Borrower subsequent to
the date on which Lender makes written demand therefor pursuant to any of the
Loan Documents;

                                       6
<PAGE>

     (4)  causing or permitting waste to occur in, on, or about the Property,
excepting ordinary wear and tear;

     (5)  the failure to deliver to Lender all unearned advance rentals and
security deposits that have been paid by tenants of the Property to the extent
that such fees have not been refunded to or forfeited by such tenants;

     (6)  the failure to deliver to Lender all fees paid to Borrower by any
tenant of the Property which fees permit the tenant to terminate its lease;

     (7)  loss by fire or any other casualty to the extent not compensated by
insurance proceeds collected by Lender, as a result of Borrower's failure to
comply with the insurance provisions of the Deed of Trust;

     (8)  the return of, or reimbursement for, all Fixtures and Personal
Property (as defined in the Deed of Trust) owned by Borrower, taken from the
Property by or on behalf of Borrower, out of the ordinary course of business,
and not replaced by items of equal or greater value than the original value of
the Fixtures and Personal Property so removed;

     (9)  all court costs and Reasonable Attorney's Fees (as hereinafter
defined) actually incurred which are provided for in this Note or in any of the
other Loan Documents;

     (10) (i) the removal of any chemical, material or substance in excess of
legal limits, to which exposure is prohibited, limited or regulated by any
federal, state, county, regional or local authority which may or could pose a
hazard to the health and safety of the occupants of the Property, regardless of
the source of origination; (ii) the restoration of the Property to comply with
all applicable governmental regulations pertaining to hazardous waste found in,
on or under the Property in violation of Hazardous Waste Laws (as defined in the
Deed of Trust), regardless of the source of origination; and (iii) any indemnity
or other agreement to hold Lender harmless from and against any and all losses,
liabilities, damages, injuries, costs and expenses of any and every kind arising
as a result of the existence and/or removal of applicable Hazardous Materials
(as defined in the Deed of Trust) and from the violation of Hazardous Waste
Laws. Borrower shall not be liable hereunder if the Property becomes
contaminated subsequent to Lender's acquisition of the Property by foreclosure
or acceptance of a deed in lieu thereof or subsequent to any transfer of
ownership of the Property which was approved or authorized by Lender pursuant to
the Deed of Trust, provided that such transferee assumes in writing all
obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents pertaining to Hazardous
Materials. Liability under this subparagraph (10) shall extend beyond repayment
of this Note and compliance with the terms of the Deed of Trust unless Borrower
at such time provides Lender with an environmental assessment report acceptable
to Lender, in its sole discretion, showing the Property to be free of Hazardous
Materials in violation of Hazardous Waste Laws. The burden of proof under this
subparagraph with regard to establishing the date upon which such Hazardous
Materials were placed or appeared in, on or under the Property shall be upon
Borrower;

     (11) (i) any and all costs incurred in order to cause the Property to
comply with the Accessibility Laws (as defined in the Deed of Trust) and (ii)
any indenmity or other agreement to hold Lender harmless from and against any
and all losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, costs or expenses of any kind
arising as a result of non-compliance with any Accessibility Laws. Borrower
shall not be liable hereunder for compliance with any Accessibility Laws that
first become effective, or for any violation of any Accessibility Laws resulting
from alterations or improvements to the Property that are performed subsequent
to Lender's acquisition of the Property by foreclosure or acceptance of a deed
in lieu thereof or subsequent to any transfer of ownership of the Property which
was approved or authorized by Lender pursuant to the Deed of Trust, provided
that such transferee assumes in writing all obligations pertaining to
Accessibility Laws pursuant to the Loan Documents; and

     (12)  amounts under any letter of credit and any renewals and/or
replacements thereof supplied by Borrower to Lender in connection with this Note
or the loan evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents in the event that the
bank issuing such letter of credit becomes insolvent, files or has filed against
it any bankruptcy or similar proceeding or is closed (either temporarily or
permanently), or placed in receivership, conservatorship or liquidation by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Resolution Trust Corporation or any other
local, state or federal government agency or otherwise fails or refuses to honor
such letter of credit.

     The obligations of Borrower in subparagraphs (1) through (12) above, except
as specifically provided in subparagraphs (10) and (11), shall survive the
repayment of this Note, and satisfaction of the Deed of Trust.

without limitation, the provisions set forth in the section captioned

the event Borrower (i) violates the covenant governing the placing of
subordinate financing on the Property as set forth in Paragraph 31 of the Deed
of Trust, or (ii) violates the covenant restricting transfers of interest in the
Property or transfers of ownership interests in Borrower as set forth in
Paragraph 30 of the Deed of Trust.

California and the United States and shall be binding upon Borrower, its
successors and assigns, and shall inure
