	 	 	Re:     Second Amendment (“Second Amendment”) to the Guaranty Agreement dated
as of March 29, 2002, executed and delivered by Capital Automotive REIT
(“Guarantor”), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Guaranty
dated as of October 17, 2002 (as amended, the “Guaranty”) under and in
connection with the Capital Automotive L.P. Revolving Credit Agreement
dated as of March 29, 2002, by and among the financial institutions from
time to time signatory thereto (each a “Lender”, and collectively the
“Lenders”), Comerica Bank, as Agent for the Lenders (in such capacity,
“Agent”), Capital Automotive L.P. (“Company”) and the Co-Borrowers from
time to time signatory thereto (collectively with the Company, the
“Borrowers”), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Credit
Agreement dated as of May 1, 2002 and that certain Second Amendment to
Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as amended, the “Credit
Agreement”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     Reference is made to the Guaranty. Except as specifically defined to the
contrary herein, capitalized terms used in this Second Amendment shall have the
meanings given them in the Guaranty.

     Based upon the Agent’s receipt of the approval of the requisite Lenders
(in the form attached to this Second Amendment) and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in this Second Amendment, the Agent hereby confirms the
agreement by the requisite Lenders to amend and restate the definitions of
“Consolidated Net Worth”, “Total Assets”, “Total Liabilities” and “Debt
Service” in Section 1 of the Guaranty, to state as follows:

	 	 	““Consolidated Net Worth” shall mean, as of any date of
determination, the remainder of (a) net book value of all assets
of Guarantor and its Consolidated Subsidiaries on a Consolidated
basis in accordance with GAAP plus, to the extent not included in
book value, the minority interest in CALP, minus (b) Total
Liabilities of Guarantor and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, in
each case as reflected on the balance sheet of the Guarantor’s
most recent financial statements filed as part of a form 10K or
10Q filed with the Securities Exchange Commission, provided,
however, that the calculation of Consolidated Net Worth shall
exclude any cumulative non-cash adjustments related to derivative
instruments or hedging activities as required by FASB 133.”

 

 

	 	 	““Debt Service” shall mean, as of any date of determination, a
Person’s principal amortization of long-term debt for the
preceding four fiscal quarters, plus Consolidated Interest Expense
for the preceding four fiscal quarters, plus scheduled dividends
payable during such period by CARS on any preferred stock.”
	 
	 	 	““Total Assets” shall mean, as of any applicable date of
determination, the total assets of Guarantor, determined on a
Consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP; provided, however,
that the calculation of Total Assets shall exclude any cumulative
non-cash adjustments related to derivative instruments or hedging
activities as required by FASB 133.”
	 
	 	 	““Total Liabilities” shall mean, as of any date of determination,
the total liabilities (minus any security deposits held by
Guarantor, CALP or any of their respective Subsidiaries pursuant
to any Lease Agreement), as reflected on the balance sheet of the
Guarantor’s most recent financial statements filed as a part of a
form 10K or 10Q filed with the Securities Exchange Commission,
determined according to GAAP, provided, however, that the
calculation of Total Liabilities shall exclude any cumulative
non-cash adjustments related to derivative instruments or hedging
activities as required by FASB 133.”

     Further, subject to the terms and conditions of this Second Amendment, the
Agent hereby also confirms the agreement by the requisite Lenders to amend and
restate Section 5.11 of the Guaranty to state as follows:

	 	 	“5.11 Maintain Total Liabilities to Consolidated Tangible Net
Worth. Maintain as of the end of each fiscal quarter ending on or
after the Effective Date, a ratio of Total Liabilities as of such
date to Consolidated Tangible Net Worth as of such date of not
more than 2.25 to 1.”

     Except as set forth above, this Second Amendment shall not be deemed to
amend or alter in any respect the terms and conditions of the Guaranty, the
Credit Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document and shall not be deemed
to be a waiver of or consent to any other matter.

     By signing and returning a counterpart of this Second Amendment to the
Agent, the Guarantor, the Company and the Co-Borrowers acknowledge their
acceptance of the terms of this Second Amendment. This Second Amendment shall
not become effective unless and until (i) the Second Amendment is countersigned
by the Guarantor, the Company and the Co-Borrowers, the Agent and the requisite
Lenders and such countersignatures are returned to the Agent, (ii) that certain
Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of June     , 2003 has become
effective, and (iii) Agent shall have received certified copies of company or
partnership resolutions or other authority documents confirming, as applicable,
due authorization, execution and delivery of the Second Amendment by each of
the Borrowers and the Guarantor. Upon receipt of the requisite signatures and
satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth herein, this Second
Amendment shall be deemed to be effective as of June 26, 2003.

ARTICLE II

LOANS

     Section 2.01 Amount and Term of Loans.

          (a) Amount. GMAC agrees, on the terms and subject to
the conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Loans to the Borrowers for the
purpose of (i) financing certain improvements to parcels of real property (the
proceeds of which may or may not be used for improvements to Mortgaged
Property) from time to time (referred to herein as “Construction Loans”) and
(ii) purchasing the fee interest in certain improved or unimproved parcels of
Project Property (the proceeds of which may or may not be used for purchasing
Mortgaged Property) from time to time (referred to herein as “Acquisition
Loans”) until the Maturity Date or the earlier date of termination in whole of
the Credit Commitment pursuant to Section 7.02, in such
aggregate amounts as Borrowers may from time to time request but in no event
shall (x) the aggregate amount of all outstanding Loans exceed the amount of
the Credit Commitment at any time; (y) the aggregate amount of any Construction
Loan exceed the Maximum Advance Rate for Construction Loans at any time; or (z)
the amount of any Acquisition Loan exceed the Maximum Advance Rate for
Acquisition Loans at any time. Further, if any Mortgaged Property secures more
than one (1) Loan, the applicable advance rate shall account for all Loans in
the aggregate secured by such Mortgaged Property.

          (b) Term. Loans under the Credit Commitment shall be
available to Borrowers by means of individual Loans, it being understood that
Loans advanced to acquire or to make improvements to a particular parcel of
Project Property which are repaid may not be reborrowed under the applicable
Note. Each Construction Loan made by GMAC shall have a maturity date which is
eighteen (18) months from the date of the original advance of such Loan as set
forth in the applicable Note and each Acquisition Loan made by GMAC shall have
a maturity date which is twelve (12) months from the date of the original
advance of such Loan as set forth in the applicable Note, unless otherwise
extended by GMAC in its sole discretion.

     Section 2.02 Notes. Each Loan made by GMAC pursuant to
Section 2.01 shall be evidenced by and repayable with
interest in accordance with a promissory note executed, jointly and severally,
by Capital and each applicable Borrower (each referred to herein as a
“Note” and collectively as the “Notes”)
payable to the order of GMAC, substantially in the form of Exhibit
A attached hereto, dated the date of the Loan hereunder. Each Person
that owns the Mortgaged Property securing a Loan shall be an “applicable”
Borrower for purposes of the preceding sentence and this Agreement or shall be
a Guarantor, with the applicable Guaranty secured by the Mortgage. The unpaid
principal amount of each Loan shall bear interest and be due and payable as
provided in this Agreement and each Note. Each Note shall bear interest on the
unpaid principal amount thereof from the date thereof until paid at the
Interest Rate.

     Section 2.03 Making the Loans.

          (a) Loan Requests. The Representative may in writing
request a Loan from GMAC, which request shall specify and/or include, as the
case may be, (i) a
statement as to what the proceeds of the Loan will be utilized for,
including a description of the existing

7

 

improvements and the improvements to be
constructed with the proceeds of each Construction Loan, (ii) the date of the
requested Loan, (iii) the amount of such advance, (iv) the address of the
Project Property which is to be acquired and/or improved with the proceeds of
the Loan, (v) the address and owner of the Mortgaged Property securing the Loan
and the land to be acquired with the Loan, as applicable, (vi) the purchase
price of the Mortgaged Property securing the Loan and the land to be acquired
with the Loan, as applicable, (vii) each of the documents specified in
Section 3.01, as applicable, and (viii) such other
documents, certificates and opinions as GMAC may request, in each case in form
and substance acceptable to GMAC.

          (b) Procedures for Construction Loans. Once the
conditions described below and in Section 3.01 for a
particular Construction Loan have been met, such Construction Loan shall be
made pursuant to various construction disbursements made in accordance with the
progress of construction as determined by GMAC and in accordance with the other
terms hereof. If the Project Property is also the Mortgaged Property securing
the applicable Construction Loan or if GMAC has made other loans which are
secured by the Project Property, such construction disbursements shall be made
to the applicable Borrower by deposit into a construction escrow established
with the Title Company, in form and substance satisfactory to GMAC in its sole
discretion. The amount of each Construction Loan disbursement so determined by
GMAC may be subject to a retainage to be determined by GMAC and GMAC at all
times shall have the right to retain sufficient funds which it reasonably
determines are adequate to assure completion of the work to be performed under
the Construction Contract, which shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the cost
of the Construction Project unless GMAC reasonably determines that a larger
retention is necessary. Unless otherwise waived by GMAC, all disbursements of
a Construction Loan for construction and installation of the improvements will
be made monthly by GMAC to Borrowers. Unless otherwise waived by GMAC, GMAC
shall not be required to make more than one disbursement under any Construction
Loan in any calendar month. GMAC must be furnished with a complete application
for payment at least five (5) business days prior to the proposed date of any
disbursement under a Construction Loan (“Draw Certificate”).
Such Draw Certificate shall be in form of Exhibit B
attached hereto and made a part hereof and executed by an executive officer of
Capital. GMAC shall be entitled to accept and rely upon a signature on the
Draw Certificate transmitted from Borrowers to GMAC by facsimile. Borrowers
shall provide a Draw Certificate with an original signature upon request by
GMAC. In addition, upon receipt by GMAC, Borrowers shall cause any Contractor
seeking payment under a Construction Contract to execute and deliver to GMAC an
Application and Certificate for Payment (AIA Document G702 (1992)) and
Continuation Sheet (AIA Document G703 (1992)), or such other forms of such
documents as are agreed to by GMAC and Representative, which documents shall be
acceptable to GMAC in both form and substance. Funds deposited with Borrowers
shall be used only for payment of costs of labor, materials and services
supplied for the construction of improvements specified in the Cost Analysis,
other costs specified in the Cost Analysis, and any other costs which directly
relate to the Project Property for which Borrowers have previously deposited a
sufficient amount of their own funds and/or which are specifically approved by
GMAC in writing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, at
the election of GMAC, any amount to be disbursed by GMAC to enable Borrowers to
make payment to any third party payee may be disbursed by GMAC directly to the
appropriate payee. Disbursements hereunder may be made by GMAC upon the
written request of any person who has been
authorized by Borrowers to request such disbursements until such time as
written notice of Borrowers’ revocation of such authority is received by GMAC.
Notwithstanding any of the

8

 

foregoing to the contrary, GMAC has no obligation to
monitor or determine Borrowers’ use or application of any disbursements. The
making of any disbursement shall not be deemed a waiver of GMAC’s rights
hereunder with respect to any further disbursement, nor shall it be construed
to be a waiver of any of the conditions precedent to GMAC’s obligations to make
further advances.

          (c) Requirements For All Loans. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the continued performance,
observance and compliance by Borrowers and each Guarantor of and with all of
the covenants, conditions and agreements of Borrowers and each Guarantor
contained herein (whether or not non-performance constitutes an Event of
Default) and in the Other Agreements shall be further conditions precedent to
any disbursements of the proceeds of any Loan. In addition, GMAC shall not be
required to disburse proceeds of any Loan at any time that (i) any proceedings
have been commenced or any Borrower or any Guarantor has received written
notice of the commencement of proceedings by any public or quasi-public body to
acquire the entire Project Property or any Mortgaged Property or any material
part thereof or interest therein (as determined by GMAC in its sole and
absolute discretion) by eminent domain or by condemnation proceedings, (ii) any
legislation has been passed or any suit or other proceeding has been instituted
the effect of which is to prohibit, enjoin (or to declare unlawful or improper)
or otherwise have a material adverse affect, in GMAC’s sole judgment, on the
performance by any party of any of its obligations hereunder as contemplated
hereby, or (iii) GMAC has reasonable cause to believe that the Project Property
and the improvements or any Mortgaged Property might be subject to forfeiture
under any RICO related law. GMAC’s refusal to disburse any proceeds of any
Loan on account of the provisions of this Section 2.03 shall
not alter or diminish any Borrower’s other obligations hereunder or otherwise
prevent any breach or default of any Borrower hereunder from becoming an Event
of Default. Each request for a Loan and each application for payment submitted
by Borrowers under a Construction Loan shall constitute an affirmation that
Borrowers have performed, observed and complied with their covenants,
conditions and agreements contained herein in all material respects and that
all representations and warranties made by Borrowers hereunder continue to be
true and correct.

     Section 2.04 Extension, Termination and Reduction of the Credit
Commitment. The Credit Commitment shall automatically renew on an
annual basis for periods of one (1) year unless either of GMAC or the
Representative provides such other party written notice of such party’s intent
to not renew the Credit Commitment on or prior to ninety (90) days before the
applicable Maturity Date. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and
from time to time upon three (3) business days’ prior notice to GMAC to
permanently terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part the Credit
Commitment, without penalty or premium; provided, however, that no reduction
shall reduce the Credit Commitment to an amount less than the aggregate amount
of all Loans outstanding at the time with respect thereto. GMAC may also
terminate the Credit Commitment as provided in Section 7.02.

     Section 2.05 Payment; Interest Rate; Default Rate.

          (a) The unpaid principal amount of each Loan shall bear interest from the
date of such Loan until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at an
interest rate per annum mutually acceptable to GMAC and Capital, which interest
rate shall be determined prior to

9

 

entering into each Note and shall be set
forth in the applicable Note evidencing such Loan (the “Interest
Rate”), with such interest payable in accordance with
Section 2.05(c) below. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, to the extent GMAC and Capital are unable to reach
agreement on the Interest Rate, GMAC shall have no obligation to fund the
applicable Loan.

          (b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
hereunder, all Loans shall bear interest from the date of such Event of
Default, payable on demand, at a rate per annum (the “Default
Rate”) equal to the sum of two percent (2%) plus the then applicable
Interest Rate.

          (c) Interest on Loans shall accrue from and including the date of any such
Loan to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable
(i) monthly in arrears for each month on the first Business Day of the next
following calendar month and (ii) at maturity (whether by acceleration or
otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.

          (d) All payments of principal and interest under each Note hereunder shall
be made to GMAC in immediately available funds. Borrowers agree that the
amount shown on the books and records of GMAC as being the aggregate amount of
the Loan outstanding under each Note shall be prima facie evidence of the
principal amount of such Note then outstanding.

     Section 2.06 Payment on Non-Business Days. Whenever
any payment to be made hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be due on
a day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next
succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be
included in the computation of payment of interest on the applicable Note or
the fees hereunder, as the case may be.

     Section 2.07 Inability to Ascertain the LIBOR Rate.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Notes to the
contrary, to the extent the Interest Rate has been determined based upon the
LIBOR Rate, if GMAC shall determine in good faith by reason of circumstances
affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
ascertaining the LIBOR Rate (to the extent the Interest Rate is based upon the
LIBOR Rate), then GMAC shall promptly give notice thereof to Representative,
and all outstanding Loans commencing as of the next monthly billing period
shall bear interest at the Prime Rate.

     Section 2.08 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of each
Acquisition Loan shall be used solely for purchasing improved or unimproved
Project Property by Capital and/or its Real Estate Subsidiaries. The proceeds
of each Construction Loan shall be used solely for completing construction and
improvements to certain parcels of Project Property owned by Capital and/or its
Real Estate Subsidiaries. All Loans shall be secured by a first priority
perfected security interest in the Mortgaged Property (which proceeds may or
may not be used to (a) finance completion of improvements to the Mortgaged
Property by its tenant or (b) acquire
the Mortgaged Property) in accordance with the terms and conditions set
forth in Section 2.03.

     Section 2.09 Effect of Full Payment. Upon the full
payment and satisfaction of principal and interest of any particular Note and
the written cancellation of such Note by GMAC, the applicable Borrower (other
than Capital) obligated on such Note shall be released from all

10

 

liability under
this Agreement, the Note and the Other Agreements and each corresponding
Mortgage securing such Note shall be released (but only if all Notes secured by
such Mortgage have been fully paid, satisfied and cancelled). It is understood
and agreed that Capital shall assume all responsibility and obligation of such
Borrower to indemnify Lender pursuant to Section 8.11 herein
after full payment of the applicable Borrower’s Note.

Property, an ALTA loan policy of title insurance issued by the Title
Company, with all premiums having been paid in full, with aggregate

through completion, all costs of development and construction of the
Construction Project and improvements related thereto. In no event shall
GMAC be required to disburse any portion of the Construction Loan in
excess of the portion of such Construction Loan allocated to any
particular item or category on the Cost Analysis unless there is a
sufficient amount in the contingency line item to cover such excess.
However, GMAC reserves the right after any Event of Default, and at any
other time that GMAC deems it necessary or advisable to avoid impairment
of its security, to make advances of amounts previously allocated to any
of the designated items in the Cost Analysis for such other purposes or
in such different proportions as GMAC determines in its sole discretion.
Borrowers may not reallocate items of cost or change the Cost Analysis
without the prior written consent of GMAC, except by using amounts in the
contingency line item and except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement with regard to change orders.

Construction Loan, which constitutes an Event of
Default or would constitute an Event of Default but for the
requirement that notice be given or the lapse of time or both.

hereunder, Borrowers shall furnish to the following to GMAC if requested by
GMAC:

or ordinance violation whatsoever and an endorsement to the title policy
insuring matters of survey to and including the date of such survey.

16

 

		
	 	     (ii) Certificates of Completion. Upon GMAC’s
request, Borrowers shall provide to GMAC, at Borrower’s expense,
architect’s and/or engineer’s certificates of progress with respect to
each Construction Project, satisfactory to GMAC, describing the nature
and extent of all work done, indicating the state to which construction
has progressed, and certification that all work has been done and
materials installed in compliance with the plans and specifications.
	 
	 	     (iii) Proof of Payment, Lien Waiver, Etc. GMAC
may require Borrowers to provide proof to GMAC as to payment of

from time to time and at all reasonable times, during or after
construction. Borrowers will permit GMAC and its representatives and
agents to enter upon the premises and to inspect the improvements and all
materials to be used in the construction thereof and to cooperate and
cause any contractor or subcontractor to cooperate with GMAC and its
representatives and agents during such inspections.
	 
	 	     (v) Other Agreements. Such other documents,
instruments, agreements and certificates as GMAC may reasonably request.

treatment or disposal of any Hazardous Materials, or (iii) seeks to cause, or
could reasonably be expected to form the basis of a meritorious proceeding to
cause, any property of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary to be subject to any
restrictions on ownership, use, occupancy or transferability under any
Environmental Laws. The Loan Parties, jointly and severally, agree that GMAC

otherwise. The Loan Parties, jointly and severally, agree to remain fully
liable and to indemnify and hold harmless GMAC from any costs, expenses,
clean-up costs, waste disposal costs, litigation costs, fines and penalties,

Examination. CARS and each Loan Party will keep accurate books of
record and account for itself in which true and complete entries will be made
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently
applied and, upon prior written request of GMAC, will give any representative
of GMAC access to, and permit such representative to examine, copy or make
extracts from, any and all books, records and documents in its possession, to
inspect any of its properties (including, but not limited to, performing
environmental testing on any parcel of Mortgaged Property at the Loan Parties’
expense (but only if GMAC has reasonable cause to believe such environmental
testing is necessary), subject to any reasonable restrictions under the lease
governing such Mortgaged Property) and to discuss its affairs, finances,
accounts and the status of each Construction Project or Acquisition with any of
its principal officers, all at such times during normal business hours and as
often as GMAC may reasonably request.

     Section 5.03 Compliance with Laws. Each Loan Party
will comply with, and cause any tenant of Mortgaged Property to comply with,
the requirements of applicable laws and regulations, the noncompliance with
which would materially and adversely affect its business or its financial

     Section 5.04 Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. Each
Loan Party will pay or discharge, or cause any tenant of Mortgaged Property to
pay or discharge, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or
imposed upon it or upon its income or profits, or upon any properties belonging
to it, prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto and all lawful
claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become
a lien or charge upon any properties of any Loan Party; provided, that no Loan
Party shall be required to pay, or cause any third party to pay, any such tax,
assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being
contested in good faith by appropriate legal proceedings.

     Section 5.05 Maintenance of Properties. Each Loan
Party will keep and maintain, or cause any tenant of Mortgaged Property to keep
and maintain, all of its properties necessary or useful in its business in good
condition, repair and working order.

     Section 5.06 Insurance. Each Loan Party will keep or
cause the applicable tenant to keep all of such Loan Party’s insurable
properties adequately insured at one hundred percent (100%) of their
replacement cost at all times with responsible insurance carriers against loss
or damage by fire and other hazards to the extent and in the manner as are
customarily insured against by similar businesses owning such properties
similarly situated. At a minimum, each Loan Party will maintain, or cause any
tenant of Mortgaged Property to maintain, upon and relating to the Mortgaged
Property and each Construction Project, as applicable, the following policies
of property, liability and casualty insurance, such insurance policies to be in
a form and with coverages and exclusions reasonably satisfactory to GMAC:

          (a) General public liability insurance at all times with responsible
insurance carriers against liability on account of damage to persons and
property.

          (b) Insurance under all applicable workers’ compensation laws (or in the
alternative, maintain required reserves if self-insured for workers’
compensation purposes) and against loss by reason of business interruption,
such policies of insurance to have such limits, deductibles, exclusions,
co-insurance and other provisions providing no less coverages than are
maintained by similar businesses that are similarly situated.

          (c) Prior to the engagement of any Construction Project and prior to
construction of any improvements being conducted on the Mortgaged Property or
any other properties that secure loans made by GMAC, an “all-risk”, completed
value, non-reporting builder’s risk insurance policy or policies that provide
coverage similar to the foregoing must be submitted to GMAC. This policy must
be from a company and in an amount satisfactory to GMAC, must have a vandalism
and malicious mischief endorsement and must be sufficient to avoid the
application of any co-insurance provisions, must include provisions for a
minimum 30-day advance written notice of any intended policy cancellation or
non-renewal, and must designate GMAC as mortgagee and loss payee in a standard
mortgagee endorsement.

          (d) Each Loan Party covenants to maintain or cause to be maintained, by
the Loan Parties and, during the term of each Construction Project and during
the construction of any improvements on any Mortgaged Property or any other
properties that secure loans made by GMAC, by the general contractor, general
accident and commercial general liability insurance against all claims for
bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about any

24

 

part of
the Mortgaged Property and each parcel of Project Property. The policies must
be in amounts satisfactory to GMAC. The contractor’s policy must include
worker’s compensation coverage in an amount sufficient to satisfy statutory
requirements.

          (e) For any improvement on the Mortgaged Property or any Project Property
which secures other loans made by GMAC, and after completion of any
construction and in replacement of the builder’s risk coverage under
Subparagraph 5.06(c) above, an “all-risk” permanent property insurance policy
must be in effect, and an original certificate from the issuing insurance
company evidencing that the policy is in full force and effect must be
submitted to GMAC. The policy must be in an amount satisfactory to GMAC, must
eliminate all co-insurance provisions, must include a Replacement Cost and
Agreed Amount/Stipulated Value Endorsement, must include a Sinkhole
Endorsement, if appropriate, must include provisions for a minimum 30-day
advance written notice to GMAC of any intended policy cancellation or
non-renewal, and must designate GMAC as mortgagee and loss payee in a standard
mortgagee endorsement, as its interest may appear.

          (f) Rent loss/business interruption insurance as to any buildings or
structures now or hereafter comprising a part of the Mortgaged Property. The
policy must be from a company and in an amount satisfactory to GMAC and must
include provisions for a minimum 30-day advance written notice to GMAC of any
intended policy cancellation or non-renewal.

          (g) If, and to the extent that, the Mortgaged Property is located within
an area that has been or is hereafter designated or identified as an area
having special flood hazards as defined in the Federal Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, as such act may from time to time be amended and in
effect, or pursuant to any other national or state program of flood insurance,
the Loan Parties shall carry flood insurance with respect to the improvements
located on such Mortgaged Property and in an amount not less than the maximum
amount available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 and the
regulations issued pursuant thereto, as amended from time to time, in form
complying with the “insurance purchase” requirement of that Act.

          (h) If, and to the extent that, the Mortgaged Property or any Project
Property is located within an area that has been or is hereafter designated or
identified as an area having special earthquake hazards, the Loan Parties shall
carry, if required by GMAC, earthquake insurance in such amounts as GMAC shall
require.

          (i) Each such liability insurance policy shall name GMAC as an additional
insured party with respect to the Mortgaged Property, and each such property
insurance policy shall name GMAC as a loss payee subject to the rights of any
tenant under leases approved by GMAC, and shall provide by way of endorsements,
riders or otherwise that (i) proceeds will be payable to GMAC as its interest
may appear; (ii) GMAC will be loss payee for all proceeds payable if the
proceeds payable are equal to or greater than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000) in amount on a per occurrence or claim basis, and such proceeds
shall be made available to the Loan Parties if such proceeds are less than Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($500,000) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred;
(iii) such insurance policy shall be renewed, if renewal is available, and
shall not be canceled and further, shall not be endorsed, altered or reissued
to effect a change in coverage in any manner materially adverse to GMAC, for
any reason and to any extent whatsoever unless such insurer shall have first
given GMAC

25

 

thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof; (iv) such insurance
policy shall not be impaired by any act or neglect of the Loan Parties or any
use of the Mortgaged Property for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by
such policy; and (v) GMAC may, but shall not be obliged to, without waiving or
releasing any obligation or default by any Loan Party hereunder following
notice, make premium payments and take any other action with respect thereto
which GMAC deems advisable to prevent any nonrenewal, cancellation,
endorsement, alteration or reissuance and such payments shall be accepted by
the insurer to prevent same. All sums so disbursed by GMAC, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating
thereto, shall be payable, on demand, by the Loan Parties to GMAC, shall bear
interest until paid in full at the interest rate per annum equal to then
applicable Interest Rate and shall be additional obligations hereunder secured
by the Collateral.

          (j) The Loan Parties may maintain the insurance coverages required
hereunder under a blanket policy or policies. GMAC shall be furnished with the
original certificate of insurance and a copy of the policy, if requested by
GMAC (or an original certificate and a copy of the blanket policy or such other
form as may be acceptable to GMAC with respect to such insurance) coincident
with the execution of this Agreement and each Note and satisfactory evidence of
renewal thereof not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the
initial or each preceding renewal policy together with receipts or other
evidence that the premiums thereon have been paid, with the original of each
renewal policy or a certificate with a duplicate of such renewal policy to
follow as soon as available or, in any such case, an appropriate broker’s
certificate in respect thereto. Upon request by GMAC, the Loan Parties shall
furnish to GMAC a statement certified by the Loan Parties of the amounts of
insurance maintained in compliance with this Section 5.06, a
general description of the risks covered by such insurance and of the insurance
company or companies which carry such insurance. In addition, the Loan Parties
will promptly comply or cause Tenants to promptly comply in all material
respects with any requirements of any insurer of any portion of the Mortgaged
Property or any Project Property and any and all rules and regulations of any
insurance commission or board of fire underwriters having jurisdiction over the
Mortgaged Property or any Project Property.

     Section 5.07 Restoration Following Casualty. If any
acts or occurrences of any kind or nature, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen
or unforeseen, shall result in damage to or loss or destruction of the
Mortgaged Property or any Project Property in excess of Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($500,000.00), the Loan Parties will give prompt notice thereof to
GMAC. If the cost to fully pay for the restoration, repair or replacement
(hereinafter called the “Work”) of the Mortgaged Property is
less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) in the aggregate, the
insurance proceeds shall be made available to the Loan Parties to restore,
repair, replace or rebuild the Mortgaged Property, so long as no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred. If (a) the cost to fully pay for the
Work is equal to or greater than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), (b)
there are sufficient insurance proceeds or sufficient other amounts available
to the Loan Parties to fully pay for the work and the projected appraised value
of the Mortgaged Property upon completion of the Work is equal to or greater than
the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property immediately prior to the
casualty, (c) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (d)
neither the Loan Parties nor the tenant leasing the Mortgaged Property has
elected to terminate the Lease of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the Lease
and confirmation of the same has been delivered to GMAC, (e) the Loan Parties
have received and

26

 

are entitled to continue to receive full rental payments
under the Lease throughout the period of the Work up to one year after the date
of the damage or destruction, whether such payments are made by the tenant or
from rental or business interruption insurance proceeds, (f) all parties having
operating, management or franchise interests in, and arrangements concerning,
the Mortgaged Property agree that they will continue their interests and
arrangements for the contract terms then in effect following the restoration or
repair, (g) the Loan Parties present sufficient evidence to GMAC that the
damaged property will be restored within eighteen months after the date of the
damage or destruction and (h) GMAC will not incur any liability to any other
person as a result of such use or release of insurance proceeds, then the Loan
Parties and its tenant or tenants of such damaged or destroyed Mortgaged
Property will so certify to GMAC, and will certify that it will, and shall,
within 30 days following reaching an agreement with the insurer under the
casualty insurance policy relating thereto with regard to the disbursement of
insurance proceeds commence and thereafter continue diligently to completion,
to restore, repair, replace and rebuild such Mortgaged Property as nearly as
possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to such
damage, loss or destruction with such alterations, modifications and/or
betterments reasonably deemed necessary or desirable by the Loan Parties in
their business judgment. If the conditions set forth in such certificate of
the Loan Parties are not satisfied with respect to a casualty, or if the Loan
Parties fail to deliver such a certificate to GMAC within 90 days following the
casualty, or if the Loan Parties shall otherwise fail to restore, repair,
replace or rebuild such Mortgaged Property as provided herein, the insurance
proceeds related thereto shall be promptly paid to GMAC and applied to the
outstanding balance of the Borrowers’ Liabilities.

     Section 5.08 Application of Proceeds. Insurance
proceeds to be used for Work, which proceeds are equal to or greater than Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (the “Insurance Proceeds Threshold
Amount”) on a per occurrence or claim basis, initially shall be paid
to GMAC, and shall be paid out by GMAC to the Loan Parties from time to time as
the Work progresses, subject to the following conditions: (a) prior to the
commencement thereof (other than Work to be performed on an emergency basis to
protect the Mortgaged Property or prevent interference therewith), an architect
or engineer, reasonably approved by GMAC, shall be retained by the Loan Parties
(at the Loan Parties’ expense) and charged with the supervision of the Work;
(b) each request for payment by the Loan Parties shall be made on ten (10) days
prior notice to GMAC and shall be accompanied by a certificate by an executive
officer of the Loan Parties, stating that: (i) all of the Work completed has
been completed in substantial compliance with the plans and specifications
therefor; (ii) the sum requested is justly required to reimburse the Loan
Parties for payments by the Loan Parties to, or is justly due to, the
contractor, subcontractors, materialmen, laborers, engineers, architects or
other persons rendering services or materials for the Work; and (iii) when
added to all sums previously paid out by the Loan Parties, the sum requested
does not exceed the value of the Work completed to the date of such
certificate; (c) the amount of insurance proceeds remaining in the hands of
GMAC or remaining to be disbursed by the applicable insurance company, plus any
further reserves agreed to be maintained by the Loan Parties in conformity with
GAAP in connection with the Work, will in GMAC’s reasonable judgment be sufficient to complete the Work; (d) each
request shall be accompanied by certification by an executive officer of the
Loan Parties or copies of waivers of Lien reasonably satisfactory in form and
substance to GMAC covering that part of the Work for which payment or
reimbursement is being requested; provided, however, that in the event it is
customary practice not to grant such waivers prior to the making of such
payments, the Loan

27

 

Parties shall have obtained affidavits from the parties
requesting such payment (i) stating the amount then due and (ii) promising the
delivery of the waiver upon the making of the payment; (e) an Event of Default
has not occurred and is not continuing since the hazard, casualty or
contingency giving rise to payment of the insurance proceeds occurred; (f) in
the case of the request for the final disbursement, such request is accompanied
by a copy of any certificates of occupancy or other certificate required by any
legal requirement to render occupancy of the damaged portion of the Mortgaged
Property lawful; and (g) if, in GMAC’s reasonable judgment, the amount of such
insurance proceeds will not be sufficient to complete the Work (which
determination may be made prior to or from time to time during the performance
of the Work), the Loan Parties shall maintain adequate reserves in conformity
with GAAP equal to an amount of money which when added to such insurance
proceeds will be sufficient, in GMAC’s reasonable judgment, to complete the
Work. Insurance proceeds to be used for Work, which proceeds are less than the
Insurance Proceeds Threshold Amount on a per occurrence or claim basis,
initially shall be paid to the Loan Parties and shall be used by the Loan
Parties to perform such Work in accordance with its certificate delivered
pursuant to Section 5.07, with any excess thereof used to
repay the Borrowers’ Liabilities in accordance with Section
5.07. In the event the Loan Parties elect to restore, repair,
replace or rebuild the Mortgaged Property and subsequently fail to comply with
any of the conditions set forth herein to disbursement of insurance proceeds,
any proceeds remaining to be disbursed, whether held by the Loan Parties, GMAC
or an insurance company, shall be paid to GMAC and, at its option, applied to
the outstanding balance of the Borrowers’ Liabilities. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the Project Property (i) is not the Mortgaged Property or (ii)
does not secure any other loan made by GMAC, the insurance proceeds shall be
released directly to such Loan Party that is the fee owner of the Project
Property, provided that all such insurance proceeds shall be used for
rebuilding the Project Property and any excess insurance proceeds shall be paid
to GMAC and credited against the Loans and other outstanding amounts due from
Borrowers to GMAC.

     Section 5.09 Financial Covenants.

          (a) Minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio. CARS shall
maintain a consolidated Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.40:1.0
measured as of December 31 of each year.

          (b) Maximum Debt to Total Assets Ratio. CARS shall not
permit its Debt to Total Assets Ratio to exceed more than seventy-five percent
(75%) at any time, measured as of December 31 of each year.

     Section 5.10 Use of Mortgaged Property. Each parcel of
Mortgaged Property will be used, or intended for use, primarily as a facility
for the sale or repair of motor vehicles by the lessee of the Mortgaged
Property, except as otherwise permitted under the Leases.

     Section 5.11 Condemnation — General. Promptly
following the date on which an executive officer of any Loan Party obtains
knowledge of the institution of any proceeding for the condemnation of all or
any portion of the Mortgaged Property or any Project Property, the Loan Parties
shall notify Trustee and GMAC of such fact. The Loan Parties shall then,
unless GMAC waives this requirement, file or defend its claim in respect of
such proceeding and prosecute same with due diligence to its final disposition.
The Loan Parties may be the nominal

28

 

party in such proceeding but GMAC shall be
entitled to participate in same and to be represented therein by counsel of its
own choice in the event of a condemnation of all or part of the Mortgaged
Property with a value estimated to be in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000), and such Loan Party will deliver or cause to be delivered to GMAC
such instruments as may be reasonably requested by it from time to time to
permit such participation. All proceeds received from any such condemnation
proceeding relating to Mortgaged Property with a value estimated to be in
excess of $100,000 shall be paid to GMAC and, except as provided in
Section 7.2, applied to reduce the outstanding balance of
the Borrowers’ Liabilities. In the event the cost to fully pay for the
restoration, repair or replacement of any Mortgaged Property is less than One
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in the aggregate, the condemnation proceeds
shall be forwarded to the Loan Parties, so long as no Event of Default shall
have occurred. In the event (a) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, (b) only a portion of such Mortgaged Property is taken, (c) the
Loan Parties elect to rebuild, restore or repair the remaining portion of such
Mortgaged Property, (d) the cost of the rebuilding, restoration or repair
reasonably estimated by GMAC shall exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000) but be less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) ($1,000,000 being
the “Condemnation Threshold Amount”), (e) there are
sufficient proceeds or other amounts available to the Loan Parties to fully pay
for the rebuilding, restoration or repair of such Mortgaged Property and the
projected appraised value of such Mortgaged Property upon completion of the
same is equal to or greater than the appraised value of such Mortgaged Property
immediately prior to the condemnation, (f) neither the Loan Parties nor the
lessee leasing such Mortgaged Property has elected to terminate the Lease
pursuant to the Lease and confirmation of the same has been delivered to GMAC,
(g) the Loan Parties have received and are entitled to continue to receive full
rental payments under the Lease through the period of rebuilding, restoration
or repair, whether such payments are made by the lessee or from rental or
business interruption insurance proceeds, (h) all parties having operating,
management or franchise interests in, and arrangements concerning, such
Mortgaged Property agree that they will continue their interests and
arrangements for the contract terms then in effect following the restoration,
(i) all parties, having commitments to provide financing with respect to such
Mortgaged Property, to purchase the Loan Parties’ interest in full or in part
in such Mortgaged Property or to purchase the Borrowers’ Liabilities agree in a
manner satisfactory to GMAC that their commitments will continue in full force
and effect and, if necessary, the expiration of such commitments will be
extended by the time necessary to complete the restoration, (j) the Loan
Parties present sufficient evidence to GMAC that the applicable Mortgaged
Property will be restored to an architectural whole prior to the Maturity Date
and (k) GMAC will not incur any liability to any other person as a result of
such use or release of proceeds, then the Loan Parties will so certify to GMAC,
and will certify that the Loan Parties will and shall continue diligently to
completion to restore, repair, replace and rebuild such Mortgaged Property as
nearly as possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to
such condemnation with such alterations, modifications and/or betterments
reasonably deemed necessary or desirable by the Loan Parties in their business
judgment. With the certification described in the preceding sentence, then the Loan
Parties shall deliver to GMAC plans and specifications for such rebuilding,
restoration or repair; and the Loan Parties shall thereafter commence the
rebuilding, restoration or repair in accordance with the plans and
specifications required pursuant to the preceding provisions within sixty (60)
days after the date of the disbursement of the award or settlement, and
complete same to the satisfaction of GMAC within a reasonable time thereafter.
In the event each of the conditions set forth above in the first

29

 

sentence of
this Section are satisfied except that the cost of rebuilding, restoration or
repair is in excess of the Condemnation Threshold Amount, the above provisions
shall apply except that the proceeds shall be paid to GMAC and disbursed in
accordance with Section 5.06 (with all references to
insurance proceeds being revised to refer to condemnation proceeds). Upon
completion of such rebuilding, restoration and repair in accordance with the
preceding provisions, the Loan Parties may apply such amount or settlement to
the costs of such rebuilding, restoration or repair. If (i) there is a total
condemnation of the applicable Mortgaged Property, or (ii) if the cost of
rebuilding, restoration or repair is reasonably estimated to be in excess of
One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), or (iii) if the Loan Parties elect not to
rebuild, restore or repair as specified above, or (iv) the requirements set
forth above for rebuilding, restoration or repair after a partial condemnation
are not met to GMAC’s satisfaction, then the Loan Parties shall pay to GMAC
such award or settlement to be applied to reduce the outstanding balance of the
Borrowers’ Liabilities.

     Section 5.12 Leases. (a) Each Loan Party shall promptly
and fully keep, observe and perform, or cause to be kept, observed and
performed, all of the material terms, covenants, provisions and agreements
imposed upon or assumed by any Loan Party under any Lease, now or hereafter in
effect, including any amendments or supplements to such Leases covering any
part of any Mortgaged Property that is affected by the terms, covenants,
provisions and agreements imposed upon or assumed by any Loan Party in such
Leases and no Loan Party will do or fail to do, or permit or fail to permit to
be done, any act or thing, the doing or omission of which will give any party a
right to terminate any of such Leases or, in the case of any tenant, to abate
the rental or other material payment due thereunder;

          (b) If any Loan Party shall, in any manner, fail to comply with subsection
(a) above, the Loan Parties agree that GMAC may (but shall not be obligated to)
take, upon ten (10) days’ written notice to Representative (or upon lesser
notice, or without notice, if GMAC reasonably deems that the same is required
to protect its interest in any parcel of Mortgaged Property), any action which
GMAC shall reasonably deem necessary or desirable to keep, observe and perform
or cause to be kept, observed or performed any such terms, covenants,
provisions or agreements and to enter upon any parcel of Mortgaged Property or
Project Property, as applicable, and take all action thereon as may be
necessary therefor, or to prevent or cure any default by any Loan Party in the
performance of or compliance with any of any Loan Party’s covenants or
obligations under said Leases. GMAC may rely on any notice of default received
from any tenant unless, in connection with any such default or alleged default
the Loan Parties in good faith notify GMAC of the Loan Parties’ election to
contest such default by appropriate procedures and diligently pursues such
contest. The Loan Parties shall promptly deliver to GMAC a copy of any notice
relating to defaults received from any tenant that is a party, or the trustee,
receiver or successor for or to a party, to any of said Leases. GMAC may
expend such sums of money as are reasonable and necessary for any such
purposes, and the Loan Parties hereby agrees to pay to GMAC, immediately upon
demand, all sums so expended by GMAC, together with interest thereon from the date of such payment at the
Default Rate, and until so paid by the Loan Parties, all sums so expended by
GMAC and the interest thereon shall be added to Borrowers’ Liabilities secured
by the Mortgages; and

          (c) No Loan Party shall, without the prior written consent of GMAC, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, terminate,
cancel, or enter

30

 

into any amendment reducing the rent payable under or
remaining term of any Lease of any part or any parcel of Mortgaged Property or
Project Property or release any guarantor or any other party liable under any
such Lease. Provided that the Loan Party has furnished GMAC with all documents
and information reasonably requested by GMAC to review and evaluate such
request for consent, GMAC shall make a good faith effort to respond to such
request within ten (10) business days after the date that all requested
documents and information have been delivered to GMAC. Notwithstanding the
foregoing and except as prohibited above, a Loan Party may enter into any other
amendment to any Lease, consent to the assignment of any Lease, or consent to
the sublease of all or part of any Mortgaged Property or Project Property
without the prior written consent of GMAC.

     Section 5.13 Construction Responsibilities. The Loan
Parties shall construct the improvements or cause the improvements to be
constructed in a good and workmanlike manner according to the plans and
specifications and the recommendations of any soils engineer set forth in a
report delivered to GMAC prior to the initial disbursement or specifically
approved by GMAC in writing thereafter. The Loan Parties shall comply or cause
the compliance with all applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations,
building restrictions, orders, permits, recorded covenants and restrictions,
and requirements of all regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the
Project Property or improvements thereon. The Loan Parties shall be solely
responsible for all aspects of the Loan Parties’ business and conduct in
connection with each Construction Project and improvements, including, without
limitation, for the quality and suitability of the plans and specifications and
their compliance with all governmental requirements, the supervision of the
work of construction, the qualifications, financial condition and performance
of all architects, engineers, contractors, material suppliers, consultants and
property managers, and the accuracy of all applications for payment and the
proper application of all disbursements. GMAC is not obligated to supervise,
inspect or inform the Loan Parties or any third party of any aspect of the
construction of the improvements or any other matter referred to above. The
Loan Parties shall remedy, in a manner satisfactory to the municipality and to
GMAC, such portions or aspects of the construction contemplated herein as may
be determined to be not substantially in compliance with the approved plans and
specifications or any laws, ordinances, orders, permits, contracts,
subcontracts, bills, and statements of the Loan Parties relating to the Project
Property.

     Section 5.14 Completion of Improvements. Cause each
Construction Project to be carried on continuously and cause the improvements
to be completed not later than eighteen (18) months from the date of the
initial advance. The improvements will be constructed entirely on the
applicable Project Property and will not encroach upon or overhang any easement
or right of way, nor upon the land of others, and the improvements when erected
shall be wholly within the building restrictions lines, however established,
and will not violate applicable use or other restrictions contained in prior
conveyances or applicable protective covenants or restrictions. All utility
lines, septic systems and streets serving the Project Property will be
completed in accordance with any health department standards and other
applicable regulations of any governmental agency having jurisdiction. The Loan Parties will promptly
correct or cause to be corrected any structural defect in the improvements or
any departure from the plans and specifications not previously approved by
GMAC.

     Section 5.15 Payment of Costs. Promptly pay or cause
to be paid all construction bills when due and keep the Project Property at all

demand in similar or other circumstances.

     Section 8.05 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement
and the Other Agreements may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all

Agreement) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of
the State of Michigan without regard to conflict of laws principles.

36

 

     Section 8.09 Headings. Article and Section headings in
this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall
not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

     Section 8.10 Venue and Waiver of Jury Trial. The
parties agree that all actions or proceedings arising in connection with this
Agreement and the Other Agreements shall be tried and litigated only in the
state and federal courts located in the State of Michigan or, at the sole
option of GMAC, in any other court in which GMAC shall initiate legal or
equitable proceedings and which has subject matter jurisdiction over the matter
in controversy. All the parties to this Agreement waive any right each may
have to assert the doctrine of forum non conveniens or to object to venue to
the extent any proceeding is brought in accordance with this Section
8.10. All the parties to this Agreement hereby further jointly and
severally waive any right to trial by jury with respect to any action, claim,
suit or proceeding in respect of or relating to this Agreement or any Other
Agreement and/or any relationship between GMAC and any Borrower.

     Section 8.11 Indemnification by Loan Parties. The Loan
Parties hereby agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify, defend and hold
GMAC, and its directors, officers, agents, employees and counsel, harmless from
and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies,
judgments, penalties or expenses imposed on, incurred by or asserted against
any of them, whether direct, indirect or consequential, arising out of or by
reason of any litigation, investigations, claims or proceedings (whether based
on any federal, state or local laws or other statutes or regulations,
including, without limitation, securities, environmental or commercial laws and
regulations, under common law or at equitable cause, or on contract or
otherwise) commenced or threatened, which arise out of or are in any way based
upon the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, enforcement,
performance or administration of this Agreement, any Other Agreement, or any
undertaking or proceeding related to any of the transactions contemplated
hereby or any act, omission to act, event or transaction related or attendant
thereto, including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court
costs, and the fees and expenses of counsel reasonably incurred in connection
with any such litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding, provided that the
Loan Parties shall have no obligation hereunder with respect to indemnified
liabilities arising from (i) any claim by GMAC which arises solely from the
actions or omissions to act of GMAC and was not caused by any breach of this
Agreement or any Other Agreement by any Loan Party, or (ii) the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of GMAC or any of its agents, designees or
attorneys in fact. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and
hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because
it violates any law or public policy, the Loan Parties shall contribute the
maximum portion which they are permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable
law, to the payment and satisfaction of all indemnified matters incurred by
GMAC. If, at the time of the payment in full of Borrowers’ Liabilities, any
claim or claims are pending or threatened against GMAC, or its directors,
officers, agents, employees or counsel, the foregoing indemnity shall survive
the payment of Borrowers’ Liabilities and the termination of this Agreement,
and Capital hereby agrees to remain fully liable to GMAC for the indemnity
obligation with respect to such claim. All of the foregoing costs and expenses
shall be part of Borrowers’ Liabilities, payable upon demand, and secured by
the Mortgaged Property.

     Section 8.12 Joint and Several Liability. Each
Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement has been entered into as
an agreement among Borrowers and GMAC for the

37

 

benefit of, and at the request of, Borrowers, jointly and severally.
Except as specifically set forth herein, the liability of each Borrower under
this Agreement and the other agreements in general shall be joint and several,
and each reference herein to the Borrowers shall be deemed to refer to each
such Borrower. In furtherance and not in limitation of GMAC’s rights and
remedies hereunder or at law, GMAC may proceed under this Agreement and the
other agreements against any one or more of the Borrowers in its absolute and
sole discretion for any of the obligations of the Borrowers or any other
liability or obligation of the Borrowers arising hereunder.

     Section 8.13 Reimbursement Among Borrowers. To the
extent that any Borrower other than Capital shall be required to pay a portion
of any Borrower’s Liabilities created under this Agreement of any other
Borrower which shall exceed the amount of loans, advances or other extensions
of credit received by any such Borrower and all interest, costs, fees and
expenses attributable to such loans, advances or other extensions of credit,
then such Borrower shall be reimbursed by the other Borrowers for the amount of
such excess pro rata, based on their respective net worth as of the date
hereof. This Section 8.13 is intended only to define the
relative rights of the Borrowers among the Borrowers and nothing set forth in
this Section 8.13 is intended to or shall impair the
obligations of Borrowers, jointly and severally, to pay the obligations of the
Borrowers to GMAC as and when the same shall become due and payable in
accordance with the terms hereof.

     Section 8.14 Appointment of Capital as Representative.
Each Borrower hereby jointly and severally appoints Capital, with full power of
substitution, as agent and attorney-in-fact for all Borrowers (in such
capacity, the “Representative”), with full authority to
receive or provide notices on behalf of each Borrower and to execute and
deliver on behalf of any or all Borrowers (in the name of Capital as
Representative hereunder and/or the name of such Borrowers) any modifications,
alterations, amendments or waivers of this Agreement or any Other Agreement and
to take any other action and execute any other instrument or document on behalf
of and in the name of any Borrower as shall be deemed appropriate by
Representative. The Borrowers hereby jointly and severally ratify and approve
all actions taken, and documents or instruments executed and delivered, by
Representative on behalf of any of them hereunder.

a new Loan; [and]] [TBD]

     [WHEREAS, Guarantor is a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Capital which has
agreed to execute a Guaranty of even date herewith (the “Guaranty”) secured by

     WHEREAS, as a condition of, and in order to consummate the Loan for [the

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants and
agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Old Borrowers, the New
Borrower and GMAC agree as follows:

     1.     Joinder. The New Borrower hereby agrees to become a
Borrower under the Credit Agreement and agrees to assume all obligations and be
bound by all of the terms, conditions and covenants thereof all with the same
effect as if such documents had been

C-1 

 

executed as of the original date of the Credit Agreement (the
“Closing Date”). Concurrently with the execution of this
Joinder Agreement the undersigned has become a party to the Other Agreements
[LIST THOSE DOCUMENTS EXECUTED BY THE REAL ESTATE SUBSIDIARIES], and agrees to
be bound thereby as if it had been a party to each such document all with the
effect as if such documents had been executed on the Closing Date.

     2.     Loan Documents. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 3.01 of the Credit Agreement, the following
documents and information shall be delivered to GMAC, in form and substance
acceptable to GMAC, concurrently with this Joinder Agreement, which shall be

in fee simple and shall execute a Mortgage which when recorded will grant to
GMAC a first priority security interest in each parcel of Mortgaged Property
securing all present and future Loans.

          (c) Guaranty. To the extent the proceeds of any Loan

delivered in connection therewith shall remain in full force and effect, and
are hereby ratified and confirmed.

               c.     No
Waiver. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Joinder
Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of GMAC,
nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any other
documents, instruments or agreements executed and/or delivered in connection
therewith (except as expressly set forth herein). Nothing herein shall

obligor or in any other way obligate GMAC to hereafter provide any further
consents, waivers or modifications with respect to the Credit Agreement.

          5.     Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents
shall be interpreted in such a manner so as to be effective and valid under

Form of Guaranty

GUARANTY

          THIS GUARANTY (“Guaranty”) is executed and delivered as of                     ,
200    , by                     ,
a                     [corporation/limited
liability company/limited partnership] (the “Guarantor”), in favor of GENERAL
MOTORS ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“GMAC”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

          WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Construction Credit Agreement dated as
of                     , 2003 (as amended, modified or restated from time to time, the
“Credit Agreement”) among GMAC, Capital Automotive L.P. a Delaware limited
partnership (“Capital”),                     ,
a                     [INSERT NAME OF
BORROWER] (the “Real Estate Subsidiary”), and certain affiliates of Capital,
GMAC has made certain financial accommodations to the Real Estate Subsidiary
and Capital (collectively, the “Borrowers”) evidenced by that certain Note
dated as of                     in
the original principal amount of $                    
payable by Borrowers to the order of GMAC (as amended, modified or restated
from time to time, together with all renewals and substitutions thereof, the
“Note”), as set forth in the Note;

          WHEREAS, as an affiliate of the Real Estate Subsidiary and a subsidiary of
Capital, Guarantor will derive direct and indirect economic benefits from the
continued availability of financial accommodations to the Borrowers; and

          WHEREAS, in connection with the financial accommodations provided by GMAC
to the Borrowers as set forth in the Note and as a condition precedent thereto,
GMAC is requiring that the Guarantor shall have executed and delivered this
Guaranty.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants
hereinafter contained, and to induce GMAC to enter into the Note, it is agreed
as follows:

          1.     DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Credit Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires
or unless otherwise defined herein. References to this “Guaranty” shall mean
this Guaranty, including all amendments, modifications and supplements and any
exhibits or schedules to any of the foregoing, and shall refer to the Guaranty
as the same may be in effect at the time such reference becomes operative.

D-1

 

          2.     THE
GUARANTY. The Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

          2.1     Guaranty
of Borrower’s Obligations. Guarantor hereby unconditionally
guarantees to GMAC, and its respective successors, endorsees, transferees and
assigns, the prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise) and performance of all of the Borrowers’ obligations and all other
liabilities of any kind of Borrowers arising under the Credit Agreement and/or
the Note plus all costs, fees and expenses of enforcement and collection under
this Guaranty, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees
(collectively, the “Guarantor’s Obligations”). Guarantor agrees that this
Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection and
that Guarantor’s Obligations under this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute and
unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by:

               (a)     the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future
amendment of, or change in, Guarantor’s Obligations, the Credit Agreement, the
Note, the Loan Documents or any other agreement, document or instrument to
which any Borrower and/or Guarantor are or may become a party with GMAC in
connection therewith;

               (b)     the absence of any action to enforce this Guaranty or any other Loan
Document or the waiver or consent by GMAC with respect to any of the provisions
thereof;

               (c)     the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect GMAC’s
security interest against, any security for the liabilities, obligations and
agreements by the Borrowers under the Note or the Credit Agreement
(collectively, the “Obligations”) or any action, or the absence of any action,
by GMAC in respect thereof (including, without limitation, the release of any
such security); or

               (d)     any other action or circumstances which might otherwise constitute a
legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being
agreed by Guarantor that its obligations under this Guaranty shall not be
discharged until the payment and performance, in full, of all the Obligations.
Guarantor shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal
debtor with respect to the Obligations. Guarantor expressly waives all rights
he may have, now or in the future, under any statute, or at common law, or at
law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel GMAC to proceed in respect of the
Obligations against any Borrower or any other party or against any security for
the payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as
a condition to proceeding against, Guarantor. Guarantor agrees that any notice
or directive given at any time to GMAC which is inconsistent with the waiver in
the immediately preceding sentence shall be null and void and may be ignored by
GMAC, and, in addition, may not be pleaded or introduced as evidence in any
litigation relating to this Guaranty for the reason that such pleading or
introduction would be at variance with the written terms of this Guaranty,
unless GMAC has or has specifically agreed otherwise in writing. It is agreed
between Guarantor and GMAC that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the
transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for this Guaranty
and such waivers, GMAC would decline to make or continue to make the Loans
evidenced by the Loan Documents.

          2.2     Demand
by GMAC. In addition to the terms of the Guaranty set forth in
Section 2.1 hereof, and in no manner imposing any limitation on such terms, it
is expressly

D-2

 

understood and agreed that if the then outstanding principal amount of the
Obligations (together with all accrued interest thereon) are declared to be
immediately due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Note, then,
Guarantor shall upon demand in writing therefor by GMAC to Guarantor, pay to
the holders of the Obligations the entire amount of Guarantor’s Obligations due
and owing to such holders under this Guaranty. Payment by Guarantor shall be
made to GMAC to be credited and applied upon the Obligations, in immediately
available federal funds to an account(s) designated by GMAC or at the address
set forth herein for the giving of notice to GMAC or at any other address that
may be specified in writing from time to time by GMAC.

          2.3     Enforcement
of Guaranty. This is a guaranty of payment and not of
collection. In no event shall GMAC have any obligation (although it is
entitled at its option) to proceed against any Borrower or any other person or
any real or personal property pledged to secure the Obligations before seeking
satisfaction from Guarantor, and GMAC may proceed, prior or subsequent to, or
simultaneously with, the enforcement of GMAC’s rights hereunder, to exercise
any right or remedy which it may have against any property, real or personal,
as a result of any lien it may have as security for all or any portion of the
Obligations.

          2.4     Waiver. In addition to the waivers contained in Section 2.1 hereof,
Guarantor waives and agrees that he shall not at any time insist upon, plead or
in any manner whatever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any
appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, marshalling of assets or redemption
laws, or exemption, whether now or at any time hereafter in force, which may
delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance by Guarantor of its
obligations under, or the enforcement by GMAC of, this Guaranty. Guarantor
hereby waives diligence (whether for non-payment or protest or of acceptance,
maturity, extension of time, change in nature or form of the Obligations,
acceptance of further security, release of further security, composition or
agreement arrived at as to the amount of, or the terms of, the Obligations,
notice of adverse change in any Borrower’s financial condition or any other
fact which might materially increase the risk to Guarantor), presentment and
demand with respect to any of the Obligations or all other demands whatsoever
and waives the benefit of all provisions of law which are or might be in
conflict with the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor represents, warrants and
agrees that, as of the date of this Guaranty, its obligations under this
Guaranty are not subject to any defense against GMAC or any Borrower of any
kind. Guarantor further agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty shall
not be subject to any counterclaims, offsets or defenses against GMAC or
against any Borrower of any kind which may arise in the future other than those
arising due to the willful misconduct or gross negligence of GMAC.

          2.5     Benefits
of Guaranty. The provisions of this Guaranty are for the
benefit of GMAC and its successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and
nothing herein contained shall impair, as among the Borrowers and GMAC, the
Obligations under the Loan Documents. In the event all or any part of the
Obligations are transferred, indorsed or assigned by GMAC to any person or
persons in accordance with the provisions of the Note, any reference to “GMAC”
herein shall be deemed to refer equally to such person or persons.

D-3

 

          2.6     Modification
of Loan Documents, Etc. If GMAC shall at any time or
from time to time, with or without the consent of, or notice to, Guarantor:

               (a)     change or extend the manner, place or terms of payment of, or renew or
alter all or any portion of, the Obligations;

               (b)     take any action under or in respect of the Loan Documents in the
exercise of any remedy, power or privilege contained therein or available to it
at law, equity or otherwise, or waive or refrain from exercising any such
remedies, powers or privileges;

               (c)     amend or modify, in any manner whatsoever, the Loan Documents;

               (d)     extend or waive the time for any of Guarantor’s, any Borrower’s or any
other person’s performance of, or compliance with, any term, covenant or
agreement on its part to be performed or observed under the Loan Documents, or
waive such performance or compliance or consent to a failure of, or departure
from, such performance or compliance;

               (e)     take and hold security or collateral for the payment of the
Obligations guaranteed hereby or sell, exchange, release, dispose of, or
otherwise deal with, any property pledged, mortgaged or conveyed, or in which
GMAC has been granted a lien, to secure any indebtedness of Guarantor or any
Borrower to GMAC;

               (f)     release anyone who may be liable in any manner for the payment of any
amounts owed by Guarantor or any Borrower to GMAC;

               (g)     modify or terminate the terms of any intercreditor or subordination
agreement pursuant to which claims of other creditors of Guarantor or any
Borrower are subordinated to the claims of GMAC; and/or

               (h)     apply
any sums by whomever paid or however realized to any amounts
owing by Guarantor or any Borrower to GMAC in such manner as GMAC shall
determine in its discretion;

then GMAC shall not incur any liability to Guarantor pursuant hereto as a
result thereof, and no such action shall impair or release Guarantor’s
Obligations.

          2.7     Reinstatement. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect
and continue to be effective in the event any petition be filed by or against
any Borrower or any Guarantor for liquidation or reorganization, in the event
any Borrower or any Guarantor becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the
benefit of creditors or in the event a receiver or trustee be appointed for all
or any significant part of any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s assets, and shall
continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time
payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant
to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be
restored or returned by GMAC, whether as a “voidable preference”, “fraudulent
conveyance”, or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not
been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded,
reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed
reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or
returned.

D-4

 

          2.8     Subrogation. Guarantor shall not exercise any rights which it may
have acquired by way of subrogation under this Guaranty, by any payment made
hereunder or otherwise nor shall Guarantor seek any reimbursement from any
Borrower in respect of payments made by Guarantor hereunder, unless and until
all of the Obligations shall have been paid to GMAC and discharged, in full,
and if any payment shall be made to Guarantor on account of such subrogation or
reimbursement rights at any time when the Obligations shall not have been paid
and discharged in full, each and every amount so paid shall forthwith be paid
to GMAC to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or
unmatured.

               (a)     If, pursuant to applicable law, Guarantor, by payment or otherwise,
becomes subrogated to all or any of the rights of GMAC under any of the Loan
Documents, the rights of GMAC to which Guarantor shall be subrogated shall be
accepted by Guarantor “as is” and without any representation or warranty of any
kind by GMAC, express or implied, with respect to the legality, value, validity
or enforceability of any of such rights, or the existence, availability, value,
merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose of any collateral and
shall be without recourse to GMAC.

               (b)     If GMAC may, under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits
under any of the Loan Documents giving GMAC a lien upon any collateral, whether
owned by any Borrower or by any other person, either by judicial foreclosure
or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, GMAC may, at its sole option, determine
which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its
rights and remedies under this Guaranty. If, in the exercise of any of its
rights and remedies, GMAC shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies,
including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against the Borrower or any
other person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of
remedies” or the like, Guarantor hereby consents to such action by GMAC and
waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by GMAC shall
result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation which Guarantor
might otherwise have had but for such action by GMAC. Any election of remedies
which results in the denial or impairment of the right of GMAC to seek a
deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair Guarantor’s
obligation to pay the full amount of Guarantor’s Obligations hereunder. In the
event GMAC shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private
sale permitted by law or the Loan Documents, GMAC may bid all or less then the
amount of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by GMAC
but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful
bid at any such sale, conducted in a commercially reasonable manner, whether
GMAC or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed
to be the fair market value of the collateral and the difference between such
bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively
deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Guaranty
(subject, in all cases to the limitations set forth herein), notwithstanding
that any present or future law or court decision or ruling may have the effect
of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which GMAC might otherwise be
entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

          2.9     Continuing
Guaranty. Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty is a
continuing guaranty and shall remain in full force and effect until the payment
and performance in full of the Obligations.

D-5

 

          2.10     Security. As security for the payment and performance of Guarantor’s
Obligations under this Guaranty, Guarantor hereby grants to GMAC a security
interest in certain real property in accordance with that certain Deed of
Trust, Mortgage, Leasehold Mortgage, Leasehold Deed of Trust Security
Agreement, Fixture Filing, Assignment and Leases and Rents and Financing
Statement of even date herewith made by Guarantor in favor of GMAC.

          3.     DELIVERIES. IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO GMAC, GUARANTOR SHALL DELIVER TO
GMAC, CONCURRENTLY WITH THE EXECUTION OF THIS GUARANTY AND THE NOTE, SUCH OF
THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS, CERTIFICATES AND DOCUMENTS AS ARE
REQUIRED TO BE DELIVERED BY GUARANTOR TO GMAC UNDER THE CREDIT AGREEMENT.

          4.     REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES. To induce GMAC to make the loan as
provided in the Note, Guarantor makes the following representations and
warranties to GMAC, each and all of which shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Guaranty:

          4.1     Review
of Guaranty and Loan Documents. Guarantor has reviewed each of
the terms and conditions of this Guaranty and each of the other Loan Documents,
including, without limitation, the Credit Agreement and the Note.

          4.2     Financial
Benefit to Guarantor. Guarantor, as an affiliate of each
Borrower engaged in a common enterprise, is deriving a material financial
benefit from GMAC’s making and/or GMAC’s continuing to make the Loans to the
Borrowers.

          4.3     Enforceability. Each obligation under this Guaranty is legal, valid,
binding and enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with all of its
respective terms and conditions, subject to the effect of bankruptcy and other
laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

          4.4     Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or
investigation, at law or in equity, before or by any court or other
governmental authority, pending, or, to the knowledge of Guarantor, threatened
against or affecting Guarantor or any of its property.

          5.     PERMITTED
ASSIGNMENT BY GMAC. GMAC may freely assign its rights and
delegate its duties under this Guaranty, but no such assignment or delegation
shall increase or diminish Guarantor’s Obligations hereunder. The consent of
Guarantor shall not be required for any such assignment or delegation and
failure to give notice shall not effect the validity or enforceability of any
such assignment or delegation or this Guaranty or subject GMAC to any
liability.

          6.     FURTHER
ASSURANCES. Guarantor agrees, upon the written request of
GMAC, to execute and deliver to GMAC, from time to time, any additional
instruments or documents reasonably considered necessary by GMAC to cause this
Guaranty to be, become or remain valid and effective in accordance with its
terms.

          7.     PAYMENTS
FREE AND CLEAR OF TAXES. All payments required to be made by
Guarantor hereunder shall be made to GMAC free and clear of, and without
deduction for, any and all present and future taxes, withholdings, levies,
duties, and other governmental charges (“Taxes”). Upon request by GMAC,
Guarantor shall furnish to GMAC a receipt for any

D-6

 

Taxes paid by Guarantor pursuant to
this Section 7 or, if no Taxes are
payable with respect to any payments required to be made by Guarantor
hereunder, evidence reasonably acceptable to GMAC that no such Taxes are
payable. If Taxes are paid by GMAC, Guarantor will upon demand of GMAC, and
whether or not such Taxes shall be correctly or legally asserted, indemnify
GMAC for such payments, together with any interest, penalties and expenses in
connection therewith plus interest thereon at the rate specified in the Note
(calculated as if such payments constituted overdue amounts of principal as of
the date of the making of such payments).

          8.     MISCELLANEOUS.

Agreement; Amendments. This Guaranty, together with the other
Loan Documents, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with

supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), the terms and
provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference, pursuant to which
GMAC has committed to make loans in the maximum principal amount of
$100,000,000 (the “Loan”) to Capital and its subsidiaries;

          WHEREAS, Tenant is the tenant and Borrower is the landlord pursuant to a
written lease (the lease and any amendments thereto are collectively referred
to as the “Lease”) for the property (“Property”) described on Exhibit “1”
attached hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference;

          WHEREAS, on                ,
200     Borrower did execute and deliver to GMAC certain
documents for the purpose of evidencing and securing the Loan (the “Loan
Documents”);

          WHEREAS, Tenant did on or about
                    enter into a construction
agreement (the “Contract”) with                (“Contractor”) for the site work

          WHEREAS, Tenant is required to assign its interest in the Construction

          NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the Loans from GMAC to Capital
and other good and valuable consideration, Tenant does hereby transfer, set

to the rights of GMAC.

FORM OF CONTRACTOR CONSENT AND
AGREEMENT

          The undersigned General Contractor (the “Undersigned”) has reviewed the
“Assignment of Interest in Construction Documents” (the “Assignment”) to be
executed and delivered by      (“Borrower”) and      
(“Tenant”) to GENERAL MOTORS ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION (“GMAC”) in connection with
the Loan (as defined in the Assignment). The Undersigned, who has, pursuant to
one or more of the “Construction Documents” (as defined in the Assignment),
performed or supplied, or agreed to perform or supply, certain services,
materials, and/or documents in connection with construction of the improvements
referred to in the Assignment, hereby ratifies the agreements set forth in said
one or more of the Construction Documents and hereby acknowledges and consents
to the Assignment. The Undersigned does hereby warrant and represent to GMAC
and Borrower that no default exists under the terms of any Construction
Document between Tenant and the Undersigned. The Undersigned does hereby
agree: (a) that in the event of any uncured default by Borrower under the
terms of the “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Assignment), GMAC shall be
entitled to use without further payment or charge of any kind any and all
plans, specifications, drawings and surveys prepared or owned by the
Undersigned relating to the construction of the improvements contemplated by
said Loan Documents and to enforce any contracts or other agreements which
Tenant has with regard to the Undersigned; (b) that in the event of any uncured
default by Tenant under the “Lease” (as defined in the Assignment), Borrower
shall be entitled to use without further payment or charge of any kind any and
all plans, specifications, drawings and surveys prepared or owned by the
Undersigned relating to the construction of the improvements contemplated by
said Loan Documents and to enforce any contracts or other agreements which
Tenant has with regard to the Undersigned; and (c) that in the event of any
uncured default by Borrower under the terms of said Loan Documents, the
Undersigned shall, upon receipt of written notice and demand of GMAC, continue
performance on behalf of GMAC in accordance with the agreement of the
Undersigned for the performing or supplying of such services, materials and/or
documents; and (d) that in the event of any uncured default by Tenant under the

Tenant under the terms of any agreement between Tenant and the Undersigned,
then the Undersigned shall deliver to GMAC and Borrower, by certified United

default and the action required to cure the same, and GMAC and/or Borrower
shall have a reasonable time (but in no event less than ten (10) days after
receipt of such notice) within which GMAC and/or Borrower shall have the right,
but not the obligation, to cure such default, and the delivery of such notice
of default and the failure of GMAC and/or Borrower to cure the same within the
time allowed, as aforesaid, shall be conditions precedent to the exercise of
any right or remedy of the Undersigned arising by reasons of such default; and
(f) that the Undersigned shall not enter into any material modification or
amendment of any agreement between Tenant and the Undersigned without the prior
written consent of Borrower. In the event

that both Borrower and GMAC are entitled to exercise their respective
rights hereunder, the rights of Borrower are subject and subordinate to the
rights of GMAC.

and Agreement shall automatically terminate with respect to all matters
pertaining to GMAC if no disbursement of any portion of the proceeds of the
Loan is ever made by GMAC or, if disbursement is made, upon repayment in full
of the Loan and release by GMAC of its security therefor.

FORM OF OPINION OF BORROWER’S COUNSEL

, 200

General Motors Acceptance Corporation

Mail Code B10-C76

200 Renaissance Center

Detroit, Michigan 48265-2000

          Re:     GMAC/Capital
Automotive L.P.

Gentlemen:

          Reference is hereby made to that certain Construction Credit Agreement
dated as of June 23, 2003 (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among Capital
Automotive L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Capital”), certain real
estate subsidiaries thereof (Capital and the real estate subsidiaries party to
the Credit Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Borrowers”) and
General Motors Acceptance Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(“GMAC”). In
connection therewith, we have acted as counsel for
      [INSERT
NAME OF NEWLY FORMED BORROWER] (“New
Borrower”) [and       (the
“Guarantor”)] in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit
Agreement [(New Borrower and Guarantor are collectively referred to as the
“Loan Parties”). Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein
without definition shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Credit
Agreement.

          Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

          1.     New Borrower is a [limited partnership or limited liability company, as
applicable,] validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization, as applicable, and New Borrower is duly
qualified to do business as a foreign [     ] in each jurisdiction where
it is required to be qualified.

          2.     Guarantor is a [limited partnership or limited liability company, as
applicable,] validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization, as applicable, and Guarantor is duly
qualified to do business as a foreign [     ] in each jurisdiction where
it is required to be qualified.

          3.     The
execution and delivery of the agreements listed on Exhibit A,
together with such certificates and instruments executed in connection
therewith (collectively, the “Loan Documents”), by the Loan Parties and the
performance by each Loan Party of its obligations thereunder (i) are within
each Loan Party’s corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company
powers, as applicable, (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company action of such Loan
Party, as applicable, (iii) do not contravene (a) any charter, by-laws,

H-1

 

organizational document, as applicable, of such Loan Party, or (b) any law
or contractual restriction affecting such Loan Party or its properties and (iv)
do not result in or require the creation of any lien or other encumbrance upon
or with respect to any Loan Party’s property, except as may be created in the
Loan Documents.

          4.     No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or
filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for (i)
the due execution, delivery, recordation, consummation and performance by any
Loan Party of the Loan Documents, or (ii) the exercise by GMAC of its rights
and remedies under the Loan Documents.

          5.     The Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by each Loan
Party.

          6.     The Loan Documents are the legal, valid and binding obligations of each
Loan Party and are enforceable against each Loan Party, in accordance with
their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or
limiting creditors’ rights or equitable principles generally. [EXCEPT OUT
MORTGAGE FOR PURPOSES OF LOCAL STATE LAW]

          7.     Except
as set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto, there is no pending
action or proceeding before any court, governmental agency or arbitrator
against or directly involving any Loan Party and, to the best of our knowledge,
there is no threatened action or proceeding affecting any Loan Party or any of
the assets of any Loan Party before any court, governmental agency or
arbitrator which, in any case, may (i) materially and adversely affect the
financial condition or operation of any Loan Party, (ii) which seeks to
restrain or would otherwise have a material adverse effect on the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents or (iii) which would affect the validity or
enforceability of all or any of the Loan Documents.

          8.     No Loan Party is not in default under any order, award or decree of any
court, arbitrator, or governmental authority binding upon or affecting any Loan
Party or by which any Loan Party’s assets may be bound or affected, which
default would have a material adverse effect on the business, operation, assets
or condition of any Loan Party, and no such order, award or decree materially
adversely affects the ability of any Loan Party to carry on its business as
currently conducted or the ability of any Loan Party to perform its obligations
under the Loan Documents.

          Our opinion is qualified by reference to (a) the fact that certain
remedial provisions in the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents may be
rendered invalid or unenforceable by applicable laws, which laws, however, do
not in our opinion make the remedies provided in such documents inadequate for
the realization of the benefits and security intended to be provided thereby
and (b) the effect upon the enforceability of the Loan Documents of bankruptcy,
reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting generally the
enforcement of creditors’ rights.

          We understand and acknowledge that you are relying on the opinion set
forth herein in entering into the transactions contemplated by the Credit
Agreement.

	 
	Very truly yours,

all Management Expenses, to the prior indefeasible and final payment in full by

proceeding and to receive and collect any and all dividends or other payments
or disbursements made thereon in whatever form the same may be paid or issued
and to apply same on account of any Borrowers’ Liabilities owing to GMAC by
Borrower.

          The Subordinated Party further agrees to execute and deliver to GMAC, such
assignments or other documents as may be required in order to enable GMAC to
enforce any and all such claims and to collect any and all dividends or other
payments or disbursements which may be made at any time on account of all or
any part of the indebtedness owing to the Subordinated Party from Borrowers
hereby subordinated.

          In the event that the Subordinated Party shall receive any payment or
distribution with respect to any indebtedness owing to the Subordinated Party
from any Borrower at any time or under any circumstances not permitted by this
Agreement, the Subordinated Party shall hold the same in trust, as trustee, for
GMAC and shall promptly deliver the same to GMAC in precisely the form received
(except for the endorsement or assignment by the Subordinated Party where
necessary) for application to the Borrowers’ Liabilities.

          The Subordinated Party hereby agrees not to assign, transfer, encumber or
subordinate at any time while this Agreement remains in effect any right, claim
or interest of any kind in or to any of the indebtedness owing to the
Subordinated Party from any Borrower hereby subordinated without the prior
written consent of GMAC.

by any Borrower to GMAC and no release or surrender of any security for
Borrowers’ Liabilities and no delay in the enforcement of payment of such
obligations or in the enforcement of any remedies
