 Employees 
  
 These Rules and Procedures form a part of the Non-Qualified Stock Option Award to which this Exhibit A is attached. 
  
 1. Grant of the Option. The Company hereby grants to the Participant
the right and Option (the “Option”) to purchase, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, all or any part of an aggregate of the number and class of Shares set forth on the attached Non-Qualified Stock Option Award Certificate of
Grant (the “Certificate of Grant”). This grant is made pursuant to the terms of the ARAMARK 2001 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which Plan, as amended from time to time, is incorporated herein by reference and made a part of
the Certificate of Grant and these Rules and Procedures (together, the “Award”). The purchase price of the Shares subject to the Option (the “Option Price”) is set forth on the attached Certificate of Grant. The Option is
intended to be a nonqualified stock option, and is not intended to be treated as an option that complies with Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein
shall have the same meanings as in the Plan. 
  
 2.
Vesting. 
  
 (a) Subject to the Participant’s
continued employment with the Company and its Affiliates, the Option shall vest and become exercisable in accordance with the schedule set forth on the attached Certificate of Grant. 
  
 (b) If the Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates for any reason, the Option, to the
extent not then vested, automatically shall terminate and be canceled by the Company without consideration, and thereafter be of no further force or effect, and the Participant shall have no claim for loss thereof; provided, however,
that if the Participant’s employment is terminated due to death or Disability, the Option will vest with respect to 100% of the Shares subject to the Option on the date of such termination. The vested portion of the Option shall remain
exercisable for the period set forth in Section 3(a) of this Award. 
  
 3. Exercise of Option. 
  
 (a) Period of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and this Award, the Participant may exercise all or any part of the vested portion of the Option at any time prior to the tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant (the
“Expiration Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant’s employment terminates prior to the Expiration Date, the Option shall remain exercisable, but only for the period set forth below, and thereafter automatically
shall terminate and be canceled by the Company without consideration, and be of no further force or effect, and the Participant shall have no claim for loss thereof: 

 (i) Death or Disability. If the Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates
terminates as a result of death or Disability, the Participant may exercise all or any part of the vested portion of the Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) one year following such termination or (B) the Expiration Date;

  
 (ii) Retirement. If the Participant’s employment
with the Company and its Affiliates terminates as a result of Retirement, the Participant may exercise all or any part of the vested portion of the Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) one year following such termination or
(B) the Expiration Date; 
  
 (iii) Termination without
Cause or by Participant for Any Reason. If the Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated by the Company or an Affiliate without Cause (other than Retirement, death or Disability) or by the Participant for
any reason, the Participant may exercise all or any part of the vested portion of the Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) 90 days following such termination or (B) the Expiration Date; and 
  
 (iv) Termination for Cause. If the Participant’s employment with
the Company and its Affiliates is terminated by the Company or an Affiliate for Cause, the vested portion of the Option shall terminate in full and cease to be exercisable. 
  
 (b) For purposes of this Award: 
  
 (i) “Cause” shall mean “cause” as defined in any employment, severance or post-employment non-competition agreement then in effect
between the Participant and the Company or any Affiliate or if not defined therein, or if there shall be no such agreement, (i) the Participant’s embezzlement, misappropriation of corporate funds, or other material acts of dishonesty,
(ii) the Participant’s commission or conviction of any felony (or any similar crime for purposes of laws outside the United States), or of any misdemeanor (or any similar crime for purposes of laws outside the United States) involving
moral turpitude, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to any felony or misdemeanor, (iii) engagement in any activity that the Participant knows or should know could harm the business or reputation of the Company or an Affiliate,
(iv) the Participant’s material failure to adhere to the Company’s or an Affiliate’s business conduct policy or other corporate codes, policies or procedures as in effect from time to time, (v) the Participant’s
violation of any statutory, contractual, or common law duty or obligation to the Company or an Affiliate, including, without limitation, the duty of loyalty, (vi) the Participant’s material breach of any confidentiality or non-competition
covenant entered into between the Participant and the Company or an Affiliate, or (vii) the Participant’s willful failure to perform the Participant’s assigned duties to the Company or an Affiliate. The determination of the existence
of Cause shall be made by the Committee in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive for purposes of this Award. 
  
 (ii) “Disability” shall mean “disability” as defined (i) in any employment, severance or post-employment non-competition
agreement then in effect between the Participant and the Company or any Affiliate or (ii) if not defined therein, or if there shall be no such agreement, as defined in the Company’s long-term disability plan as in effect from time to time,
or (iii) if there shall be no plan, the inability of the Participant to perform in all material respects the Participant’s duties and responsibilities to the 

  

 2 

 Company or any Affiliate for a period of six (6) consecutive months or for an aggregate of nine (9) months in
any twenty-four (24) consecutive month period by reason of a physical or mental incapacity. The determination of the existence of Disability shall be made by the Committee in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive for purposes of
this Award. 
  
 (iii) “Retirement” shall mean
termination of employment with the Company or an Affiliate after the Participant has attained age 60; provided that, where such termination of employment is due to a voluntary resignation by the Participant, such termination occurs upon at least 90
days prior written notice to the Committee or the Human Resources Services Department of such termination. 
  
 (iv) For avoidance of doubt, a termination of employment with the Company or an Affiliate shall occur on, and be effective on, the date the Participant
actually ceases to be an employee of the Company or an Affiliate for any reason whatsoever (including termination of employment without Cause) without regard to notice of termination, severance or termination pay, damages, or any claim thereto
(whether express, implied, contractual, statutory, or at common law). 
  
 (c) Method of Exercise. 
  
 (i) Subject to
Section 3(a) of this Award, the vested portion of the Option may be exercised by delivering to the Company at its principal office or its designee written notice of intent to so exercise; provided that the Option may be exercised with
respect to whole Shares only. Such notice shall specify the number of Shares for which the Option is being exercised and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Option Price. The payment of the Option Price may be made (A) in cash or its
equivalent (e.g., by check), (B) in Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Option Price for the Shares being purchased, provided that such Shares have been held by the Participant for no less than six months (or such
other period as established from time to time by the Committee or generally accepted accounting principles), or (C) partly in cash and partly in Shares, provided that such Shares have been held by the Participant for no less than six
months (or such other period as established from time to time by the Committee or generally accepted accounting principles) or (D) to the extent permitted by applicable law and the Committee, through the delivery of irrevocable instructions to
a broker to sell Shares obtained upon the exercise of the Option and deliver promptly to the Company an amount out of the proceeds of such sale equal to the aggregate Option Price for the Shares being purchased. To the extent permitted by the
Committee, the Option may be exercised by the Participant in joint-tenancy with the Participant’s spouse. 
  
 (ii) Upon the Company’s determination that the Option has been validly exercised as to any of the Shares, the Company shall issue or transfer the
relevant number of Shares to the Participant. If the Company issues certificates in the Participant’s name for such Shares, the Company shall not be liable to the Participant for damages relating to any delays in issuing the certificates to the
Participant, any loss of the certificates, or any mistakes or errors in the issuance of the certificates or in the certificates themselves. 
  
 (iii) In the event of the Participant’s death, the vested portion of the Option shall remain exercisable by the Participant’s executor or
administrator, or the person or persons to whom the Participant’s rights under this Award shall pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution as the case may be, to the extent set forth in Section 3(a) 

  

 3 

 
of this Award. Any heir or legatee of the Participant shall take rights herein granted subject to the terms and conditions hereof. 
  
 4. Adjustments Upon Certain Events. 
  
 (a) In the event of any change in the outstanding Shares by reason of any
Share dividend or split, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin-off or combination transaction or exchange of Shares or other similar events (collectively, an “Adjustment Event”), the Committee may, in its sole
discretion, adjust any Shares subject to this Award to reflect such Adjustment Event in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code in order to avoid taxation thereunder. 
  
 (b) Upon a Participant’s termination of employment with the Company for
any reason the portion of the Award that is outstanding on the date of termination whether or not vested at that time, automatically shall be adjusted and converted to an Award with respect to class B common stock of the Company, as the case may be;
provided that such adjustment and conversion shall not affect the vested (or unvested) status of the Award. For avoidance of doubt, in all cases, the class A and class B common stock referred to in this Section 4(b) shall be subject to
the adjustment provisions set forth in Sections 9(a) and 9(b) of the Plan. 
  
 5. No Right to Continued Employment. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall be construed as giving the Participant the right to be retained in the employ of, or in any consulting relationship to, the Company
or any Affiliate. Further, the Company or an Affiliate may at any time dismiss the Participant or discontinue any consulting relationship, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan or this Award or any damages in connection therewith,
except as otherwise expressly provided herein. 
  
 6.
Restrictions. The Shares purchased by exercise of the Option shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which such Shares are listed, and any applicable Federal or state laws or relevant securities laws of the jurisdiction of the domicile of the Participant, and the Committee may cause a
legend or legends to be put on any certificates representing such Shares to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. 
  
 7. Transferability. Except as otherwise permitted by the Committee, the Option is exercisable only by the Participant during the Participant’s
lifetime and may not be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge,
attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate. 
  
 8. Withholding. 
  
 (a) The Participant may be required to pay to the Company or any Affiliate and the Company or any Affiliate shall have the right and is hereby authorized
to withhold from any payment due or transfer made under the Option or under the Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to the Participant, applicable withholding taxes in respect of the Option, its exercise, or any payment or transfer
under the Option or under the Plan and to take such action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. 
  

 4 

 (b) Without limiting the generality of Section 8(a) of this Award if the Participant is an Affiliate
of the Company or on the Insider List pursuant to the Company’s Securities Trading Policy (including if the Participant is temporarily put on the Insider List because he or she becomes aware of material non-public information regarding the
Company), to the extent permitted by law, the Participant may satisfy, in whole or in part, the foregoing withholding liability by delivery of Shares owned by the Participant (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest and which
have been owned by the Participant for no less than six months (or such other period as established from time to time by the Committee or generally accepted accounting principles)); and to the extent permitted by law, the Participant may satisfy, in
whole or in part, the foregoing withholding liability by having the Company withhold from the number of Shares otherwise issuable pursuant to the exercise of the Option a number of Shares with a Fair Market Value not in excess of the statutory
minimum withholding liability. 
  
 9. Notices. Any notice
necessary under this Agreement shall be addressed to the Company at: 
  
 ARAMARK Corporation 
 ARAMARK Tower 
 1101 Market Street 
 Philadelphia, PA 19107 
 Attn: Director of Shareholder Services 
  
 (or, if different, the then current principal business address of the duly appointed Director of Shareholder Services of the Company) and to the Participant at the
address appearing in the personnel records of the Company for the Participant. Any such notice shall be deemed effective upon receipt thereof by the addressee. 
  

10. Affirmation of Non-Competition Agreement. Each Optionee, by accepting an Option or by exercising an Option under the Plan, shall be deemed
to have re-affirmed (and consented to be bound by), and this Award shall serve as consideration for, all terms and conditions of any agreement in effect between the Optionee and the Company or an Affiliate in respect of non-competition,
confidentiality and/or trade secrets. 
  
 11. Choice of
Law. The interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Award shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflicts of law. 
  
 12. Option Subject to Plan. The Option is subject to the Plan. A copy of the Plan was provided to the Participant
with the Award. The Participant may request a copy from the Company at the address provided in Section 9 above. In the event of a conflict between any term or provision contained herein and a term or provision of the Plan, including any
amendments thereto, the applicable terms and provisions of the Plan will govern and prevail. Each Optionee, by accepting an Option under the Plan, shall be deemed to have consented to be bound, on the Optionee’s own behalf and on behalf of the
Optionee’s heirs, assigns and legal representatives, by all terms and conditions of the Plan, the Certificate of Grant and the Rules and Procedures. 
  
 13. Severability. In the event one or more of the provisions of this Award shall be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Award shall not be affected thereby.

 EXHIBIT 10.1 
  
 William Lyon Homes, Inc. 
 Loan

 AGREEMENT FOR EIGHTH MODIFICATION OF
DEEDS OF TRUST AND OTHER LOAN INSTRUMENTS 
  
 This
Agreement for Eighth Modification of Deeds of Trust and Other Loan Instruments (this “Eighth Modification”) is made as of October 14, 2005 by and between WILLIAM LYON HOMES, INC., a California corporation (“Borrower”) and
GUARANTY BANK, a federal savings bank organized and existing under the laws of the United States (formerly known as “Guaranty Federal Bank, F.S.B.”) (“Lender”), and effective upon recordation of the Eighth Memorandum (as defined
below) against each Deed of Trust (as defined below) encumbering each Property, subject to Section 2 of this Eighth Modification, with reference to the following facts: 
  
 A. Borrower and Lender entered into a Master Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) dated August 31, 2000,
which provides for a loan of FIFTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLARS ($55,000,000.00) (the “Original Loan Amount”) to Borrower on the terms and conditions specified therein. The Loan is evidenced and secured by a revolving promissory note and other
loan instruments (collectively, the “Loan Instruments”). The Loan Instruments, each executed by Lender and Borrower, were modified by: 
  

	 	(i)	that certain Agreement for First Modification of Deeds of Trust and Other Loan Instruments dated June 8, 2001 (“First Modification”);

 Pursuant to the terms and provisions of the First Modification, the Original
Loan Amount was increased, as evidenced by a certain Amended and Restated Revolving Promissory Note executed by Borrower for the benefit of lender and dated June 8, 2001 to the maximum principal amount of SIXTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
($65,000,000.00). Pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Fourth Modification, the Loan was increased, as evidenced by a certain Amended and Restated Revolving Promissory Note executed by Borrower for the benefit of Lender and dated May 29,
2002 to the maximum principal amount of SEVENTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLARS ($75,000,000.00). Pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Sixth Modification, the Loan was increased, as evidenced by a certain Third Amended and Restated Revolving Promissory
Note executed by Borrower for the benefit of Lender and dated November 14, 2003 to the maximum principal amount of ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLARS ($125,000,000.00) (the “Loan”). Upon full execution, this Eighth Modification
shall constitute one of the Loan Instruments. All defined terms used in this Eighth Modification shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement unless the context requires otherwise. 
  
 B. At Borrower’s request, Lender has agreed to modify one or more of the
Loan Instruments, as herein provided.

	 $90,000,000.00

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
the undersigned, jointly and severally if more than one, promise to pay to the order of GUARANTY BANK, a federal savings bank organized and existing under the laws of the United States (formerly known as “Guaranty Federal Bank, F.S.B.”),
at its principal offices at 8333 Douglas Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75225, or at such other place as the holder hereof may from time to time designate, the principal sum of NINETY MILLION DOLLARS ($90,000,000.00), or so much thereof as may be disbursed,
with interest on the maximum principal balance from time to time remaining unpaid prior to default or maturity at the rate hereinafter provided, interest only being payable on the first day of each month commencing November 1, 2005, and
continuing until and including the Maturity Date (defined below), when the unpaid principal balance of this Fourth Amended and Restated Revolving Promissory Note (this “Note”), together with all accrued and unpaid interest, shall be due
and payable. The “Maturity Date” shall be the date which is the Required Release Date for the final Residence or Lot located in the final Approved Subdivision whose construction was financed with proceeds of the Loan pursuant to the Loan
Agreement (as defined below). All terms with initially capitalized letters used in this Note shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement unless otherwise indicated in this Note. 
  
 Borrower may from time to time during the term of this Note borrow, partially
or wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions of this Note and of the Loan Agreement, provided that the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall at no time exceed the
principal amount stated above, and Borrower shall have no right to borrow or reborrow amounts under this Note for the construction of Residences for which no prior Disbursements have been made under the Loan Agreement from and after three hundred
sixty-four (364) days from the Recordation of the Memorandum of Eighth Modification of Deeds of Trust and Other Loan Instruments of even date herewith between Borrower and Lender (the “Facility Expiration Date”), subject to renewal as
provided under the Loan Agreement. The unpaid principal balance of this obligation at any time shall be the total amounts disbursed hereunder by the holder hereof less the amount of principal payments made hereon by or for Borrower, which principal
balance may be endorsed hereon from time to time by the holder. 
  
 Disbursements hereunder, to the total amount of the principal sum stated above, may be made by the holder at the written request of Borrower or at the written request of those authorized by Borrower to request Disbursements and direct the
disposition of any such Disbursements until written notice of the revocation of such authority is received by the holder at the office designated above. Any such Disbursements shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to or for the benefit of
Borrower when the holder believes in good faith that such requests and directions have been made by authorized persons or when said Disbursements are deposited to the credit of any account of Borrower with the holder, regardless of the fact that
persons other than those authorized hereunder may have authority to draw against such account. 
  
 As herein provided, the unpaid Principal Amount (hereafter defined) of this Note (or portions thereof) from time to time outstanding shall bear interest prior to the Maturity Date at a varying rate of interest per
annum equal to, at Borrower’s option, (i) the Base Interest Rate (as hereafter defined) or (ii) the applicable Euro-Dollar Interest Rate (hereafter defined) (as elected in the manner specified in this Note), provided that in no event
shall the Applicable Rate (hereafter defined) exceed the Maximum Rate (hereafter defined). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Applicable Rate exceeds the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable under this Note shall be limited to
the Maximum Rate, but any subsequent reductions in the Base Interest Rate or the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate, as the case may be, shall not reduce the Applicable Rate below the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest accrued on this Note
equals the total amount of 

  

					
	 	  	11	  	Agreement for Eighth Modification

 
interest which would have accrued at the Applicable Rate if the Applicable Rate had at all times been in effect. Interest on this Note, shall be calculated
at a daily rate equal to 1/360 of the annual percentage rate stated above, subject to the provisions hereof specifying the maximum amount of interest which may be charged or collected hereunder.

(360) days (30 day increments), which shall be measured from the date specified by Borrower in each Euro-Dollar Rate Request for the commencement of the computation of interest at the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate, to the numerically corresponding
day in the calendar month in which such period terminates (or, if there be no numerical correspondent in such month, or if the date selected by Borrower for such commencement is the last Euro-Dollar Business Day of a calendar month, then the last
Euro-Dollar Business Day of the calendar month in which such period terminates, or, if the numerically corresponding day is not a Euro-Dollar Business Day then the next succeeding Euro-Dollar Business Day, unless such next succeeding Euro-Business
Day enters a new calendar month, in which case such period shall end on the next preceding Euro-Dollar Business Day); and in no event shall any such period be elected which extends beyond the Maturity Date. 
  
 “Loan”: The NINETY MILLION DOLLAR ($90,000,000.00) loan evidenced
hereby. 
  
 “Loan Agreement”: That certain Master Loan
Agreement dated August 31, 2000 between the undersigned and the payee named herein, as amended from time to time. 
  
 “Maturity Date”: Is defined in the first paragraph of this Note and is the date on which this Note becomes due and payable in its entirety.

  
 “Maximum Rate”: The lesser of (i) the maximum
interest rate permitted under applicable law, or (ii) the per annum rate of thirty percent (30%). 
  

					
	 	  	13	  	Agreement for Eighth Modification

 “Principal Amount”: That portion of the Loan evidenced hereby as is from time to time
outstanding. 
  
 “Regulation D”: Regulation D of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as from time to time amended or supplemented. 
  
 “Regulation”: With respect to the charging and collecting of interest at the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate, any United States federal, state or
foreign laws, treaties, rules or regulations whether now in effect or hereinafter enacted or promulgated (including Regulation D) or any interpretations, directives or requests applying to a class of depository institutions including Payee or Lender
under any United State federal, state or foreign laws or regulations (whether or not having the force of law) by any court or governmental or monetary authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof excluding any change the
effect of which is determined by Lender to be reflected in a change in the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate. 
  
 “Reserve Requirement”: The average maximum rate at which reserves (including any marginal, supplemental or emergency reserves) are required to
be maintained under Regulation D by member banks of the Federal Reserve System in New York City with deposits exceeding one billion U.S. Dollars against “Eurocurrency Liability”, as such quoted term is used in Regulation D. Without
limiting the effect of the foregoing, the Reserve Requirement shall reflect any other reserves required to be maintained by such member banks by reason of any regulatory change against (a) any category of liability which includes deposits by
reference to which the Euro-Dollar Rate is to be determined as provided in this Note, or (b) any category of extensions of credit or other assets which includes loans the interest rate on which is determined on the basis of rates referred to in
the definition of “Euro-Dollar Rate” set forth above. 
  
 If Borrower desires the application of the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate, it shall submit a Euro-Dollar Rate Request to Lender. Such Euro-Dollar Rate Request shall specify the Interest Period and the Euro-Dollar Amount and shall be irrevocable,
subject to Lender’s right to convert the rate of interest payable hereunder with respect to any Euro-Dollar Amount from the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate to the Base Interest Rate as hereinafter provided. In the event that Borrower fails to submit
a Euro-Dollar Rate Request with respect to an existing Euro-Dollar Amount not later than twelve o’clock noon (New York time) three (3) Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to the last day of the relevant Interest Period, then the applicable
Euro-Dollar Amount shall bear interest, commencing at the end of such Interest Period, at the Base Interest Rate. 
  
 In no event shall Borrower have the right to have more than three (3) Interest Periods involving Euro-Dollar Amounts in effect at any one time,
whether or not any portion of the Loan is then bearing interest at the Base Interest Rate. 
  
 Any portion of the Principal Amount to which the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate is not (or cannot pursuant to the terms hereof be) applicable shall bear interest at the Base Interest Rate. 
  
 Borrower shall pay to Lender, promptly upon demand, such amounts as are
necessary to compensate Lender for additional costs (“Additional Costs”) resulting from any Regulation which (i) subjects Lender to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to the Loan or this Note, or changes the basis of taxation
of any amounts payable to Lender under the Loan or this Note (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of Lender or of its applicable lending office by the jurisdiction in which Lender’s principal office or such applicable lending
office is located), (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, Lender, or
(iii) imposes on Lender or on the interbank Euro-Dollar market any other conditions affecting the Loan or this Note, or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities. Lender will notify Borrower of any event which would entitle Lender to
compensation pursuant to this paragraph as promptly as practicable after Lender obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation. 
  
 Without limiting the effect of the immediately preceding paragraph, in the event that, by reason of any Regulation, (i) Lender incurs Additional
Costs based on or measured by the amount of (1) a category of deposits or other liabilities of Lender which include deposits by reference to which the Euro-Dollar Rate is determined as provided in this Note and/or (2) a category of
extensions of credit or other assets of Lender which includes loans the interest on which is determined on the basis of rates referred to in the definition of “Euro-Dollar Rate” set forth above, (ii) Lender becomes subject to
restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets which it may hold, or (iii) it shall be unlawful or impractical for Lender to make or maintain the Loan (or any portion thereof) at the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate, then
Lender’s obligation to make or maintain 

  

					
	 	  	14	  	Agreement for Eighth Modification

 
the Loan (or portions thereof) at the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate (and Borrower’s right to request the same) shall be suspended and Lender shall give
notice thereof to Borrower and, upon the giving of such notice, interest payable hereunder at the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate shall be converted to the Base Interest Rate, unless Lender may lawfully continue to maintain the Loan (or any portion
thereof) then bearing interest at the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate to the end of the current Interest Period(s), at which time the interest rate shall convert to the Base Interest Rate. If subsequently Lender determines that such Regulation has ceased
to be in effect, Lender will so advise Borrower and Borrower may convert the rate of interest payable hereunder with respect to those portions of the Principal Amount bearing interest at the Base Interest Rate to the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate by
submitting a Euro-Dollar Rate Request in respect thereof and otherwise complying with the provisions of this Note with respect thereto. 
  
 Determinations by Lender of the existence or effect of any Regulation on its costs of making or maintaining the Loan, or portions thereof, at the
Euro-Dollar Interest Rate, or on amounts receivable by it in respect thereof, and of the additional amounts required to compensate Lender with respect to Additional Costs and/or Assessments, shall be conclusive; provided, however, that
such determinations are made without manifest error. 
  
 Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, at the time of or prior to the determination of the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate in respect of any Euro-Dollar Rate Request Amount as herein provided, Lender determines (which determination shall be
conclusive, provided that such determination is made on a reasonable basis, absent manifest error) that (i) by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Euro-Dollar market generally, adequate and fair means do not or will not exist for
determining the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate applicable to an Interest Period, or (ii) the Euro-Dollar Rate, as determined by Lender, will not accurately reflect the cost to Lender of making or maintaining the Loan (or any portion thereof) at the
Euro-Dollar Interest Rate, then Lender shall give Borrower prompt notice thereof, and the applicable Euro-Dollar Rate Request Amount shall bear interest, or continue to bear interest, as the case may be, at the Base Interest Rate. If at any time
subsequent to the giving of such notice Lender determines that because of a change in circumstances the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate is again available to Borrower hereunder, Lender shall so advise Borrower and Borrower may convert the rate of interest
payable hereunder from the Base Interest Rate to the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate by submitting a Euro-Dollar Rate Request to Lender and otherwise complying with the provisions of this Note with respect thereto. 
  
 Borrower shall pay to Lender, immediately upon request and notwithstanding
contrary provisions contained in the Mortgage (as hereafter defined) or other Loan Instruments, such amounts as shall, in the conclusive judgment of Lender reasonably exercised, compensate Lender for any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a
result of (i) any payment or prepayment, under any circumstances whatsoever, of any portion of the Principal Amount bearing interest at the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate on a date other than the last day of an applicable Interest Period,
(ii) the conversion, for any reason whatsoever, of the rate of interest payable hereunder from the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate to the Base Interest Rate with respect to any portion of the Principal Amount then bearing interest at the Euro-Dollar
Interest Rate on a date other than the last day of an applicable Interest Period, (iii) the failure of all or a portion of an Disbursement, which was to have borne interest at the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate pursuant to a Euro-Dollar Rate
Request, to be made under the Loan Agreement, or (iv) the failure of Borrower to borrow in accordance with a Euro-Dollar Rate Request submitted by it to Lender, which amounts shall include, without limitation, lost profits. 
  
 Borrower shall have the right to prepay, in whole or in part, the Principal
Amount of this Note accruing interest at the Base Interest Rate, without premium or penalty upon the payment of all accrued interest on the amount prepaid (and any interest which has accrued at the Default Rate and other sums that may be payable
hereunder); provided, however, that any Euro-Dollar Amount may be prepaid only on the last day of the applicable Interest Period. 
  
 All payments of principal shall be credited first against principal amounts bearing interest at the Base Interest Rate and then toward the payment of
Euro-Dollar Amounts. Payments of Euro-Dollar Amounts shall be applied in such manner as Borrower shall select; provided, however, that Borrower shall select Euro-Dollar Amounts to be repaid in a manner designed to minimize any losses
incurred by virtue of such payment. If Borrower shall fail to select the Euro-Dollar Amounts to which such payments are to be applied, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of payment, then Lender shall be entitled to
apply the payment to such Euro-Dollar Amounts in the manner it deems appropriate. Borrower shall compensate Lender for any losses incurred by virtue of any payment of those portions of the Loan accruing interest at the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate
prior to the last day of the relevant Interest Period, which compensation shall be 

  

					
	 	  	15	  	Agreement for Eighth Modification

 
determined in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Note, and any payment received pursuant to this paragraph shall be applied first to losses
incurred by Lender by reason of such payment. 
  
 If a default
shall occur under the Mortgage, interest on the Principal Amount shall, at the option of Lender, immediately and without notice to Borrower, be converted to the Base Interest Rate. The foregoing provision shall not be construed as a waiver by Lender
of its right to pursue any other remedies available to it under the Mortgage or any other instrument evidencing or securing the Loan, nor shall it be construed to limit in any way the application of the Default Rate. 
  
 Borrower hereby agrees that it shall be bound by any agreement extending the
time or modifying the above terms of payment, made by Lender and the owner of owners of the Property whether with or without notice to Borrower, and Borrower shall continue to be liable to pay the amount due hereunder, but with interest at a rate no
greater than the Euro-Dollar Interest Rate or the Base Interest Rate, as the case may be, according to the terms of any such agreement of extension or modification. 
  
 At the option of the holder hereof, the entire principal balance and accrued interest owing hereon shall, subject to
applicable laws, at once become due and payable without notice or demand upon the occurrence at any time of any default under any of the Loan Instruments, including this Note (each, an “Event of Default”). 
  

	 	1.	(a) Default in the payment of any installment of principal due hereunder; (b) default in the payment of any installment of interest within ten (10) days of the first
day of the month in which such installment is due; (c) default in the payment of any other amount due (other than principal or interest) hereunder which is not cured within fifteen (15) days of written notice thereof; or (d) default
in the performance of any of the covenants or provisions hereunder which is not cured within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof. 

  

	 	2.	Subject to applicable cure periods, if any, set forth in the Loan Agreement (as defined below), the liquidation, termination, dissolution or (if any of the undersigned is a natural
person) the death of any of the undersigned or any guarantor hereof. 

  

	 	3.	Subject to applicable cure periods, if any, set forth in the Loan Agreement (as defined below), the bankruptcy or insolvency of, the assignment for the benefit of creditors by, or
the appointment of a receiver for any of the property of any party liable for the payment of this Note, whether as maker, endorser, guarantor, surety or otherwise. 

  

	 	4.	Default in the payment of any other indebtedness due the holder hereof, or default in the performance of any other obligation to the holder hereof by the undersigned or any other
party liable for the payment hereof, whether as endorser, guarantor, surety or otherwise currently existing or incurred in the future, it being reasonably contemplated by the undersigned that it may incur additional indebtedness owing to the holder
hereof, from time to time, subsequent to the date hereof. 

  

	 	5.	As Section 7.6 of the Mortgage (defined below) provides: “Title to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property (other than obsolete or worn Personal Property replaced by
adequate substitutes of equal or greater value than the replaced items when new) shall become vested in any party other than Trustor, whether by operation of law or otherwise, except as permitted under the release provisions of this Deed of
Trust”. 

  

	 	6.	Under any of the Loan Instruments, an Event of Default or default (as defined in that document) occurs. 

  

	 	7.	Notwithstanding any other provision, if Lender determines in its reasonable judgment that the default complained of, other than a default for the payment of monies, cannot be cured
within the period requiring curing as specified in Lender’s written notice of default, then the default shall be deemed to be cured if Borrower within the notice period shall have commenced the curing of the default and shall thereafter
diligently prosecute the same to completion. If in Lender’s reasonable judgment Borrower fails to diligently prosecute the curing of the default or Lender determines that such default is incurable, then this default shall constitute an Event of
Default. 

  

					
	 	  	16	  	Agreement for Eighth Modification

 The failure to exercise the option to accelerate the maturity of this Note upon the happening of any one
or more of the Events of Default hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of the right of the holder hereof to exercise the same or any other option at that time or at any subsequent time with respect to such uncured default or any other event of
uncured default hereunder or under any other of the Loan Instruments. The remedies of the holder hereof, as provided in this Note and in any other of the Loan Instruments, shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued separately,
successively or together, as often as occasion therefor shall arise, at the sole discretion of the holder hereof. The acceptance by the holder hereof of any payment under this Note which is less than payment in full of all amounts due and payable at
the time of such payment shall not constitute a waiver of the rights of the holder to exercise the foregoing option or any other option granted to the holder hereof or in any other of the Loan Instruments, at that time or at any subsequent time, or
nullify any prior exercise of any such option. The acceptance by holder of any payment under this Note after the date that such payment is due shall not constitute a waiver of the right to require prompt payment when due of future or succeeding
payments or to declare a default as herein provided for any failure to so pay. The acceptance by holder of the payment of a portion of any installment at any time that such installment is due and payable in its entirety shall neither cure nor excuse
the default caused by the failure to pay the whole of such installment and shall not constitute a waiver of holder’s right to require full payment when due of all future or succeeding installments. 
  
 After any Event of Default or upon maturity, if permitted by applicable law,
principal and past-due interest shall bear interest at the lesser of the Applicable Rate plus five percent (5%) per annum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law (the “Default Rate”). The undersigned acknowledges that late
payment to holder of any sums due hereunder will cause holder to incur costs not contemplated hereunder, the exact amount of which will be impracticable or extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and
accounting charges. Accordingly, if any installment, payment or any other sum due from the undersigned shall not be received by holder or holder’s designee within ten (10) calendar days after it is due, the undersigned shall then pay to
holder a late payment charge equal to five percent (5%) of such overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs holder will incur by reason of late payment. This provision
shall not, however, be construed as extending the time for payment of any amount hereunder, and the acceptance of such late charge by holder shall in no event constitute a waiver of the undersigned’s default with respect to such overdue amount
nor prevent holder from exercising any of the other rights and remedies with respect to such default. 
  
 The undersigned and all other parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, whether as endorser, guarantor, surety or otherwise, severally waive
demand, presentment, notice of dishonor, notice of intention to accelerate the indebtedness evidenced hereby, diligence in collecting, grace, notice and protest, and consent to all extensions which from time to time may be granted by the holder
hereof and to all partial payments hereon, whether before or after maturity. 
  
 If this Note is not paid when due, whether at maturity or by acceleration, or if it is collected through a bankruptcy, probate or other court, whether before or after maturity, the undersigned agrees to pay all costs
of collections, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the holder hereof. 
  
 This Note is executed pursuant to the Loan Agreement, which Loan Agreement contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the happening
of certain events, and all Disbursements made hereunder shall be made pursuant to the Loan Agreement. This Note is secured by one or more Construction Deeds of Trust (With Security Agreement, Fixture Filing and Assignment of Rents and Leases)
(collectively, the “Mortgage” or “Deed of Trust”) covering certain property more particularly described in such Mortgage. The proceeds of this Note are to be used for business, commercial, investment or other similar purposes and
no portion thereof will be used for personal, family or household use. 
  
 All agreements between the undersigned and the holder hereof, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof or
otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged, received, paid or agreed to be paid to the holder hereof exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be payable to
the holder hereof in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to the holder hereof shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under applicable law; and if from any circumstance the holder hereof shall ever receive anything of
value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal hereof and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest
exceeds the unpaid balance of principal hereof, such excess shall be refunded to the 

  

					
	 	  	17	  	Agreement for Eighth Modification

 
undersigned. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the holder hereof shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated,
and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal (including the period of any renewal or extension hereof) so that the interest hereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law.
This paragraph shall control all agreements between the undersigned and the holder hereof. 
  
 The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the holder hereof may, from time to time, sell or offer to sell interests in the Loan evidenced by this Note as secured by the Mortgage to one or more participants. The
undersigned authorizes the holder hereof to disseminate any information it has pertaining to the Loan, including, without limitation, complete and current credit information on the undersigned, any of its principals and any guarantor of this Note,
to any such participant or prospective participant. 
  
 This Note
may be prepaid in whole or in part, at any time, without premium or penalty. All payments on the indebtedness evidenced hereby, other than regularly scheduled payments, shall be applied to such indebtedness in such order and manner as the holder
hereof may elect in its sole discretion. 
  
 This Note amends,
restates, and supersedes in its entirety a certain Third Amended and Restated Revolving Promissory Note dated November 14, 2003 executed by the undersigned in favor of the payee named herein in the principal amount of ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS ($125,000,000.00), and shall constitute a renewal thereof for purposes of the Mortgage and otherwise, and all obligations of the undersigned under this Note shall continue to be secured in full under the Mortgage. 
  
 On that date (the “Reduction Date”) which is October 19, 2005
(or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the first Business Day thereafter), Borrower is obligated to make a payment, in addition to any other payments or obligations hereunder, in an amount equal to the excess, if any, by which the amount
outstanding hereunder exceeds NINETY MILLION DOLLARS ($90,000,000.00.00) (“Reduced Principal Amount’). From and after the Reduction Date, the maximum amount, which may be advanced hereunder, shall be limited to NINETY MILLION DOLLARS
($90,000,000.00). Borrower shall, on the Reduction Date, execute, acknowledge and deliver at its sole cost and expense, any and all undertakings, documents and instruments required by Lender in connection with such reduction of the principal amount
of this Note, all in form and content acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion, and Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with effecting such reduction of the stated principal amount of this Note to the
Reduced Principal Amount. 
  
 EXCEPT WHERE FEDERAL LAW IS
APPLICABLE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY FEDERAL USURY CEILING OR OTHER FEDERAL LAW WHICH, FROM TIME TO TIME, IS APPLICABLE TO THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED HEREIN AND PREEMPTS STATE USURY LAWS), THIS NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
