         be outstanding and (y) demand shall be deemed to have been made with
         respect to each Defaulted Loan on the date on which the Servicer is
         authorized to make a demand on the Sponsor with respect to such
         Defaulted Loan pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 4.4 of this Agreement
         unless such Loan Default arises solely from the occurrence of a Credit
         Event in which case demand shall be deemed to be made only upon receipt
         of written request from the Servicer.

         the Borrower's Rental Revenue to Debt Service for such quarter shall
