Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to Lender, the following shall apply: (i)
such Borrower shall make all such required deductions, (ii) the sum payable to Lender

31

deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.9(a)), Lender
receives an amount equal to the sum Lender would have received had no such deductions been made and
(iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other

as expressly provided in this Section 2.10. Provided that no Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, after the date which is two (2) years after the Start-Up Day of the last Note
securitized, Borrower may voluntarily defease all of the Loan (a “Full Defeasance”) or a
portion of the Loan (a “Partial Defeasance”), in either case, subject to the satisfaction

Payment Date,

               (b) Borrower shall provide not less than fifteen (15) days prior written notice to Lender
specifying (i) a Payment Date (the “Defeasance Release Date”) on which the Full Defeasance
or Partial Defeasance is to occur, and (ii) in the event of a Partial Defeasance, the Individual
Property proposed to be defeased; provided, that, Borrower shall be required to defease the
Loan on the Defeasance Release Date specified in such notice unless such notice is revoked in
writing by Borrower prior to the such Defeasance Release Date in which event Borrower shall
immediately reimburse Lender for any reasonable costs incurred by Lender in connection with
Borrower’s giving of such notice and revocation,

               (c) Borrower shall have paid to Lender all principal and interest accrued and unpaid on the
Principal Indebtedness to and including the Defeasance Release Date,

               (d) Borrower shall pay to Lender all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses associated

letters related to such Full Defeasance or Partial Defeasance, as applicable), reasonable fees and
out-of-pocket costs of any loan servicer (if any) in connection with the Full Defeasance or Partial
Defeasance, as applicable, and all other sums then due and payable under the Loan Documents,

               (e) Borrower shall either deposit with Lender an amount equal to the Defeasance Deposit, or,

Deposit to purchase the Defeasance Collateral,

               (f) (f) Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender all documents reasonably required by
Lender (i) in the case of a Full Defeasance, to amend and restate the Note in a principal amount

32

 

follows: (A) one promissory note in a principal amount equal to 125% of the Allocated Loan
Amount of the Individual Property to be defeased (the “Defeased Note”); and (B) the other
promissory note having a principal balance equal to the Allocated Loan Amounts of all Individual
Properties (including the Individual Property being defeased) less the amount of the Defeased Note
(the “Undefeased Note”). The Defeased Note and the Undefeased Note shall have terms
identical to the terms of the Note, except for the principal balance and a pro rata allocation of
the Required Debt Service Payment. Neither a Full Defeased Note nor a Defeased Note may be the
subject of any further defeasance; after a Partial Defeasance, all references herein and in the
other Loan Documents to “Note” shall be deemed to mean the Undefeased Note, unless expressly
provided otherwise,

               (g) Borrower shall deliver to Lender the following items:

               (i) a security agreement, in form and substance satisfying the Prudent Lender Standard,

               (iv) an opinion of counsel in form and substance satisfying the Prudent Lender Standard
stating, among other things, (A) that, the Defeasance Collateral has been duly and validly
assigned and delivered to Lender and Lender has a first priority perfected security interest
in and Lien on the Defeasance Deposit and a first priority perfected security interest in
and Lien on the Defeasance Collateral and the Proceeds thereof and (B) that the subject
Partial Defeasance will not adversely affect the status of any REMIC formed in connection
with a Secondary Market Transaction, and

               (v) such other certificates, documents or instruments as Lender may reasonably request
including, without limitation, (A) written confirmation from the relevant Rating Agencies
that such Partial Defeasance will not cause any Rating Agency to withdraw, qualify or
downgrade the then-applicable rating on any security issued in connection with any Secondary
Market Transaction and (B) a certificate from an Independent certified public accountant
certifying that the Defeasance Collateral complies with all of the requirements of this
Section 2.10,

               (h) In the case of a Partial Defeasance, the Debt Service Coverage Ratio with respect to the
Undefeased Note shall be equal to or greater than (i) 1.51:1.00, and (ii) the Debt Service Coverage
Ratio with respect to the Loan for the trailing twelve (12) months immediately prior to such
Partial Defeasance, and

securing the Undefeased Note shall be equal to or greater than (i) RevPAR

33

 

with respect to all of the Individual Properties as of the Closing Date, and (ii) RevPAR with
respect to all of the Individual Properties for the trailing twelve (12) months immediately prior

          Upon compliance with the requirements of this Section 2.10, the Individual Property
which is the subject of such Full Defeasance or Partial Defeasance shall be released from the lien
of the applicable Mortgage, and shall thereafter no longer be subject to restrictions on transfer
set forth herein.

          In connection with a defeasance of the Loan, Borrower shall assign to an entity, which entity
which shall be a Special-Purpose Entity (the “Successor Obligor”), all of Borrower’s
obligations under the Full Defeased Note or Defeased Note, as the case may be, the other Loan
Documents and the Security Agreement, together with the pledged Defeasance Collateral. The
Successor Obligor shall assume, in a writing or writings satisfying the Prudent Lender Standard,
all of Borrower’s obligations under the Full Defeased Note or the Defeased Note, as the case may
be, the other Loan Documents and the Security Agreement and, upon such assignment, Borrower shall,
except as set forth herein, be relieved of its obligations hereunder. If a Successor Borrower
assumes Borrower’s obligations, Lender may require as a condition to such defeasance, such
additional legal opinions from Borrower’s or Successor Obligor’s counsel as Lender reasonably deems
necessary to confirm the valid creation and authority of the Successor Borrower (including a
non-consolidation opinion), the assignment and assumption of the Loan, the Security Agreement and
the Defeasance Collateral between Borrower and Successor Borrower, and the enforceability of the
assignment documents and of the Loan Documents as the obligation of Successor Borrower. Borrower
shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including Lender’s reasonable
attorney’s fees and expenses, incurred in connection with Successor Borrower’s assumption of the
Loan, the Security Agreement and the Defeasance Collateral.

          Nothing in this Section 2.10 shall release Borrower from any liability or obligation
relating to any environmental matters arising under Section 5.1(F).

Account Bank and shall be opened and maintained in the name “Merrill Lynch Mortgage Lending,
Inc. as Mortgagee/Pledgee (as applicable) of the applicable Borrower or Operating Lessee.”

               (iii) Any breach of this Section by any Borrower shall be an Event of Default;
provided, however, that, with respect to any Marriott Property, any breach
of this Section that arises by reason of any act or omission within the exclusive control or
responsibility of a Manager operating under a Management Agreement shall not be an Event of
Default hereunder so long as Borrower is taking prompt, diligent and commercially reasonable
action to require such Manager to remedy such Event of Default.

               (b) Non-Marriott Property Operating Account; Cash Collateral Account.

               (i) Pursuant to each Collection Account Agreement (with respect to each Non-Marriott
Property), Borrowers will authorize and direct each Collection Account Bank to promptly (and
in any event within one Business Day of receipt thereof) transfer all funds deposited in the
Collection Account for such Borrower’s Individual Property to the Non-Marriott Property
Operating Account (other than a minimum balance of cash of $5,000 at all times for payment
of any of the Collection Account Bank’s charges, fees and expenses, as provided in the
Collection Account Agreement). Pursuant to the terms of each Cash Collateral Account
Agreement, at such time as the aggregate amount of funds deposited into the Non-Marriott

Manager’s Subordination) deposited in the Manager Account for such Borrower’s Individual
Property to a cash collateral account that is an Eligible Account established by Lender in
Lender’s name (the “Cash Collateral Account”). Lender may elect to change the
financial institution at which the Cash Collateral Account shall be maintained. Lender
shall give Borrowers not less than thirty (30) days prior notice of each change. The Cash
Collateral Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Lender. No Borrower or

required payments as and when due pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or the Manager’s
Subordination, no funds shall be allocated to the Hotel Operations Sub-Account pursuant to
this Section 2.11(d)(vi), and, provided further, that with respect to the
Non-Marriott Properties, so long as no Non-Marriott Property Operating Account Cash Trap
Period has occurred and is continuing, no funds shall be allocated to the Hotel Operations
Sub-Account pursuant to this Section 2.11(d)(vi);

               (vi) sixth, to the Hotel Operations Sub-Account, until an amount equal to any
Extra Funds approved pursuant to Section 2.11(f) has been allocated to such
Sub-Account, provided, that with respect to each Marriott Property, so long as (A)
Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (B) no default has occurred and is continuing
under the Management Agreement applicable to such Marriott Property beyond any applicable
notice and cure periods set forth therein, and (C) Marriott is making all required payments
as and when due pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or the Manager’s Subordination, no
funds shall be allocated to the Hotel Operations Sub-Account pursuant to this Section
2.11(d)(vii), and, provided further, that with respect

37

 

to the Non-Marriott Properties, so long as no Non-Marriott Property Operating Account
Cash Trap Period has occurred and is continuing, no funds shall be allocated to the Hotel
Operations Sub-Account pursuant to this Section 2.11(d)(vii);

               (vii) seventh, in the event that a permitted Mezzanine Financing under
Section 2.15 has occurred, for the benefit of the Mezzanine Borrower, to the
Mezzanine Debt Service Payment Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the scheduled monthly
interest payment portion of Mezzanine Debt Service for the applicable monthly payment date
set forth in the Mezzanine Loan Agreement for the then current interest accrual period set
forth in the Mezzanine Loan Agreement has been allocated to the Mezzanine Debt Service
Payment Sub-Account;

               (viii) eighth, funds sufficient to pay amounts equal to any Costs of
Uncollectible Drafts then due to the Morgan Collection Account Bank shall be deposited with
the Morgan Collection Account Bank;

               (ix) ninth, provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and (b) Lender has received all financial information described in Section
5.1(Q) for the most recent periods for which the same are due, Lender agrees that in
each Current Interest Accrual Period any amounts deposited into or remaining in the Cash
Collateral Account after the minimum amounts set forth in clauses (i) through
(viii), inclusive, above, have been satisfied with respect to the Current Interest
Accrual Period and any periods prior thereto shall be disbursed by Lender on a weekly basis,
at Borrowers’ expense, to (A) at any time while the Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, the
Mezzanine Deposit Account (to the extent, if any, required under the Mezzanine Loan
Agreement), and (B) at any time after the Mezzanine Loan has been repaid in full or at any
time during which there is no Mezzanine Loan, such account that Borrowers may request in
writing. Lender and its agents shall not be responsible for monitoring Borrowers’ use of
any funds disbursed from the Cash Collateral Account or any of the Sub-Accounts. If an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any amounts deposited into or remaining in
the Cash Collateral Account shall be for the account of Lender and may be withdrawn by
Lender to be applied in any manner at any time to amounts owing under the Loan Documents as
Lender may elect in Lender’s discretion or maintained in the Cash Collateral Account as
security for the Indebtedness.

          If an Event of Default has occurred and exists or if on any Payment Date the balance in any
Sub-Account is insufficient to make the required payment due from such Sub-Account, Lender may, in
its sole discretion, in addition to any other rights and remedies available hereunder, withdraw
funds from any other Sub-Account to (a) pay such deficiency, or (b) apply to payment of the
Indebtedness. If a Non-Marriott Property Operating Account Cash Trap Period has occurred and
exists, Lender may, in its sole discretion, in addition to any other rights and remedies available
hereunder, withdraw funds from the Non-Marriott Property Operating Account to apply to payment of
the Indebtedness. If Lender elects to apply funds of any such Sub-Account or Non-Marriott Property
Operating Account to pay any Required Debt Service Payment, Borrowers shall, upon demand, repay to
Lender the amount of such withdrawn funds to replenish such Sub-Account or Non-Marriott Property
Operating Account , and if Borrowers fail to repay such amounts within five (5) days after notice
of such withdrawal, an Event of

38

 

Default shall exist hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on the Closing Date Borrowers
shall deposit the Initial Deferred Maintenance Amount into the Deferred Maintenance Sub-Account,
the Initial Basic Carrying Cost Amount into the Basic Carrying Cost Sub-Account and the Initial
Upfront Remediation Amount into the Upfront Remediation Sub-Account.

               (e) Payment of Basic Carrying Costs, Debt Service, Capital Improvement Costs, Cash
Collateral Account Bank Fees.

                    (i) Payment of Basic Carrying Costs.

                    (x) At least five (5) Business Days prior to the due date of any Basic Carrying Cost payment,
and not more frequently than once each Interest Accrual Period, Borrowers shall notify Lender in
writing and request that Lender make such Basic Carrying Cost payment on behalf of the applicable
Borrowers on or prior to the due date thereof. Together with each such request, Borrowers shall
furnish Lender with copies of bills and other documentation as may be reasonably required by Lender
to establish that such Basic Carrying Cost payment is then due. Lender shall be entitled to
conclusively rely on all bills or other documentation received from any Borrower, in each case
without independent investigation or verification. Lender shall make such payments out of the
Basic Carrying Cost Sub-Account before the same shall be delinquent to the extent that there are
funds available in the Basic Carrying Cost Sub-Account and Lender has received appropriate
documentation to establish the amount(s) due and the due date(s) as and when provided above.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each Marriott Property, so long as
(A) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (B) no default has occurred and is continuing
under the Management Agreement applicable to such Marriott Property beyond any applicable notice
and cure periods set forth therein, (C) Marriott is making all required payments as and when due
pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or the Manager’s Subordination, and (D) with respect to
Impositions, sufficient funds have been deducted from Gross Revenues (as defined under the
applicable Management Agreement) to provide for payment in full of the next due installments of
Impositions in accordance with the terms hereof, as reasonably determined by Lender based on
Marriott’s periodic reporting obligations under the Management Agreement and/or Manager’s
Subordination or otherwise, this Section 2.11(e)(i)(x) shall only apply to the payment of
Impositions not otherwise reserved for and paid by Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement
and/or the Manager’s Subordination.

                    (y) Except to the extent that Lender is obligated to pay Basic Carrying Costs from the Basic
Carrying Costs Sub-Account pursuant to the terms of this Section, Borrowers shall pay or shall
cause payment of all Basic Carrying Costs with respect to itself and the Individual Properties in
accordance with the provisions of the Mortgages. Borrowers’ obligation to pay or to cause payment
(or to enable Lender to pay) Basic Carrying Costs pursuant to this Agreement shall include, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, Impositions resulting from future changes in law which impose
upon Lender or any Deed of Trust Trustee an obligation to pay any property taxes or other
Impositions or which otherwise adversely affect Lender’s or the Deed of Trust Trustee’s interests.
(In the event such a change in law prohibits any Borrower from assuming liability for payment of
any such Imposition, the outstanding Indebtedness shall, at the option of Lender, become due and
payable on the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days after such change in law; and failure to
pay such amounts on the date

39

 

due shall be an Event of Default.) If an Event of Default has occurred, the proceeds on
deposit in the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account may be applied by Lender in any manner as Lender in
its discretion may determine.

               (ii) Payment of Debt Service. At or before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on
each Payment Date during the term of the Loan, Lender shall transfer to Lender’s own account
from the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account an amount equal to the Required Debt Service
Payment for the applicable Payment Date. Borrowers shall be deemed to have timely made the
Required Debt Service Payment pursuant to Section 2.8 regardless of the time Lender makes
such transfer as long as sufficient funds are on deposit in the Debt Service Payment
Sub-Account at 12:00 noon, New York City time on the applicable Payment Date. At all times
after such Payment Date Lender may, at its option, transfer amounts in the Debt Service
Payment Sub-Account to Lender’s own account, provided that Borrowers shall receive credit
against the Required Debt Service Payment in the amounts so transferred to Lender such that
in any given Current Interest Accrual Period Borrowers shall not be required to deposit into
the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account any amounts in excess of the aggregate amount of the
Required Debt Service Payment for such Current Interest Accrual Period.

               (iii) Payment of Capital Improvement Costs. Not more frequently than once each
Interest Accrual Period, and provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, Borrowers may notify Lender in writing and request that Lender release to a
Borrower or its designee funds from the Capital Reserve Sub-Account, to the extent funds are
available therein, for payment of Capital Improvement Costs. Together with each such
request, Borrowers shall furnish Lender or cause to be furnished to Lender copies of bills
and other documentation as may be reasonably required by Lender to establish that such
Capital Improvement Costs are reasonable (provided such Capital Improvement Costs shall be
deemed reasonable if such Capital Improvement Costs are reflected in the Approved Budget),
that the work relating thereto has been completed and that such amounts are then due or have
been paid. Lender shall approve or disapprove such request, within ten (10) Business Days
after Lender’s receipt of such request, provided such request shall be deemed approved if no
response is received from Lender within twenty (20) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of
such request and related documentation, and, if approved or deemed approved, Lender shall
release the funds to each applicable Borrower or such Borrower’s designee within ten (10)
Business Days after Lender’s approval. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
with respect to each Marriott Property, so long as (A) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott
Property, (B) no default has occurred and is continuing under the Management Agreement
applicable to such Marriott Property beyond any applicable notice and cure periods set forth
therein, and (C) Marriott is making all required payments as and when due pursuant to the
Management Agreement and/or the Manager’s Subordination, this Section 2.11(e)(iii)
shall only apply to the payment of Capital Improvement Costs not otherwise paid by Manager
pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or the Manager’s Subordination.

               (iv) Payment of Deferred Maintenance Costs. Not more frequently than once each
Interest Accrual Period, and provided that no Event of Default

40

 

has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may notify Lender in writing and request that
Lender release to Borrower funds from the Deferred Maintenance Sub-Account, to the extent
funds are available therein, for payment of Deferred Maintenance Costs. Together with each
such request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with copies of bills and other documentation
reasonably required by Lender to establish that such Deferred Maintenance Costs are
reasonable, that the work relating thereto has been completed and that such amounts are then
due or have been paid. Lender shall approve or disapprove such request within ten (10)
Business Days after Lender’s receipt of such request, provided such request shall be deemed
approved if no response is received from Lender within twenty (20) Business Days after
Lender’s receipt of such request and related documentation, and, if approved or deemed
approved, Lender shall release the funds to each applicable Borrower or such Borrower’s
designee within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s approval.

               (v) Payment of Cash Collateral Account Bank Fees. Not more frequently than
once each Interest Accrual Period, Lender shall transfer to the Cash Collateral Account Bank
an amount equal to the amount of the monthly fee payable to the Cash Collateral Account Bank
under the Cash Collateral Account Agreement.

               (vi) Payment of Upfront Remediation Costs. Not more frequently than once each
Interest Accrual Period, and provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Borrower may notify Lender in writing and request that Lender release to
Borrower funds from the Upfront Remediation Sub-Account, to the extent funds are available
therein, for payment of Upfront Remediation Costs. Together with each such request,
Borrower shall furnish Lender with copies of bills and other documentation reasonably
required by Lender to establish that such Upfront Remediation Costs are reasonable, that the
work relating thereto has been completed and that such amounts are then due or have been
paid. Lender shall approve or disapprove such request within ten (10) Business Days after
Lender’s receipt of such request, provided such request shall be deemed approved if no
response is received from Lender within twenty (20) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of
such request and related documentation, and, if approved or deemed approved, Lender shall
release the funds to each applicable Borrower or such Borrower’s designee within ten (10)
Business Days after Lender’s approval.

               (f) Payment of Operating Expenses.

               (i) Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and provided that
all amounts required to be deposited into the Sub-Accounts set forth in Sections
2.11(d)(i) through (vi) for the Current Interest Accrual Period have been
deposited therein, Lender shall transfer within two Business Days thereafter at Borrowers’
sole cost and expense, to an account designated by the Borrowers, all amounts contained in
the Hotel Operating Sub-Accounts up to an amount equal to the amount set forth in the
Approved Budget for such Interest Accrual Period provided, however, that the
aggregate withdrawals from the Hotel Operating Sub-Account pursuant to this Section
2.11(f)(i) for any Interest Accrual Period shall not exceed the amount set

41

 

forth in the Approved Budget for such Interest Accrual Period (except to the extent set
forth in subsection (ii), below).

               (ii) Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if in a given
Interest Accrual Period, Borrowers require amounts in excess of the amounts set forth in the
Approved Budget for such Interest Accrual Period for Operating Expenses (“Extra
Funds”), Borrowers may deliver a written request to Lender to allocate an amount equal
to Extra Funds to the Hotel Operations Sub-Account as set forth in Section
2.11(d)(vii) and for a disbursement of Extra Funds stating (1) the amount of such Extra
Funds and (2) the purpose for which such amount is intended with attachments of copies of
bills and other documentation as may be required by Lender to establish that such Operating
Expenses are reasonable and that such amounts are then due or expected to become due in that
month. Lender shall approve or disapprove such request, within ten (10) Business Days after
Lender’s receipt of such request and related documentation, provided such request shall be
deemed approved if no response is received from Lender within ten (10) Business Days after
Lender’s receipt of such request and related documentation, and, if approved or deemed
approved, Lender shall release the funds to each applicable Borrower or such Borrower’s
designee within five (5) Business Days after Lender’s approval.

               (iii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each Marriott
Property, so long as (A) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (B) no default has
occurred and is continuing under the Management Agreement applicable to such Marriott
Property beyond any applicable notice and cure periods set forth therein, and (C) Marriott
is making all required payments as and when due pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or
the Manager’s Subordination, this Section 2.11(f) shall not apply.

               (g) Payment of Mezzanine Debt Service. In the event that a permitted Mezzanine
Financing under Section 2.15 has occurred, at or before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on
each Payment Date during the term of the Loan, Lender shall transfer to Mezzanine Lender’s account
from the Mezzanine Debt Service Payment Sub-Account an amount equal to the Mezzanine Debt Service
for the applicable payment date.

               (h) Permitted Investments. Upon the written request of Borrowers, which request may
be made once per Interest Accrual Period, Lender shall direct the Cash Collateral Account Bank to
invest and reinvest any balance in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time in Permitted
Investments as instructed by Borrowers; provided, however, that: (i) if Borrowers
fail to so instruct Lender, or if a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and is
continuing, Lender shall direct the Cash Collateral Account Bank to invest and reinvest such
balance in Permitted Investments as Lender shall determine in Lender’s discretion; (ii) the
maturities of the Permitted Investments on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account shall, to the
extent such dates are ascertainable, be selected and coordinated to become due not later than the
day before any disbursements from the Sub-Accounts must be made; (iii) all such Permitted
Investments shall be held in the name and be under the sole dominion and control of Lender; (iv) no
Permitted Investment shall be made unless Lender shall retain a first priority perfected Lien in
such Permitted Investment and all filings and other actions necessary to ensure the validity,

42

 

perfection, and priority of such Lien have been taken; (v) Lender shall only be required to
follow the written investment instructions which were most recently received by Lender and
Borrowers shall be bound by such last received investment instructions; and (vi) any request from
Borrowers containing investment instructions shall contain an Officer’s Certificate from Borrowers
(which may be conclusively relied upon by Lender and its agents) that any such investments
constitute Permitted Investments. It is the intention of the parties hereto that all amounts
deposited in the Cash Collateral Account shall at all times be invested in Permitted Investments.
All funds in the Cash Collateral Account that are invested in a Permitted Investment are deemed to
be held in such Cash Collateral Account for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. Lender shall have no liability for any loss in investments of funds in the Cash
Collateral Account that are invested in Permitted Investments (unless invested contrary to
Borrowers’ request other than after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default) and no such
loss shall affect Borrowers’ obligation to fund, or liability for funding, the Cash Collateral
Account and each Sub-Account, as the case may be. Borrowers and Lender agree that Borrowers shall
include all such earnings and losses (other than those for Lender’s account in accordance with the
immediately preceding sentence) on the Cash Collateral Account as income of the applicable
Borrowers for federal and applicable state tax purposes. Borrowers shall be responsible for any
and all fees, costs and expenses with respect to Permitted Investments.

               (i) Interest on Accounts. All interest paid or other earnings on the Permitted
Investments made hereunder shall be income of the applicable Borrower and applied in the manner and
priority set forth in Section 2.11(d) hereof.

               (j) Termination of Central Cash Management. The obligations of Borrowers under
Section 2.11 and Section 2.12 to maintain and fund or to cause the maintenance and
funding of the Collection Accounts, the Manager Accounts and the Cash Collateral Account shall
terminate in their entirety and be of no further force or effect upon the satisfaction of each of
the following conditions: (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing; (ii) the release of all Mortgages by Lender in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (iii) Borrowers’ receipt of Lender’s written
acknowledgment that the conditions described in (i) and (ii) above have been satisfied to Lender’s
satisfaction.

     Section 2.12. Security Agreement.

               (a) Pledge of Accounts. To secure the full and punctual payment and performance of
all of the Indebtedness, each Borrower hereby sells, assigns, conveys, pledges and transfers to
Lender and grants to Lender a first priority and continuing Lien on and security interest in and to
its Account Collateral.

               (b) Covenants. Each Borrower covenants that (i) all Rents and all other items of
Gross Revenue shall be deposited or transferred into the relevant Collection Account or Manager
Account, as applicable, in accordance with Section 2.11(a), and (ii) so long as any portion
of the Indebtedness is outstanding, no Borrower shall open (nor permit any Manager or any Person to
open) any other account for the collection of any Rents or any other items of Gross Revenue, other
than (A) a replacement Manager Account pursuant to the terms of

43

 

the applicable Management Agreement, or a replacement Collection Account approved by Lender in
Lender’s discretion, and (B) any account held by Borrower in the locality where the applicable
Individual Property is located for the purposes of the collection of any Rents or any other items
of Gross Revenue prior to the time such Rents or items of Gross Revenue are deposited in the
Collection Account or Manager Account, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

               (c) Instructions and Agreements. On or before the Closing Date, each applicable
Borrower and Operating Lessee will submit to the Collection Account Bank for each related
Individual Property a Collection Account Agreement to be executed by the Collection Account Bank.
On or before the Closing Date, Borrowers, Operating Lessee and the Cash Collateral Account Bank
will execute and deliver a Cash Collateral Account Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to
Lender in Lender’s discretion (the “Cash Collateral Account Agreement”) and consistent with
the terms of this Agreement. Each Borrower and Operating Lessee agrees that prior to the payment
in full of the Indebtedness, the Cash Collateral Account Agreement shall be irrevocable by any
Borrower or Operating Lessee without the prior written consent of Lender.

               (d) Financing Statements; Further Assurances. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Lender
to file a financing statement or statements in connection with the Account Collateral in the form
required to properly perfect Lender’s security interest in the Account Collateral to the extent
that it may be perfected by such a filing. Each Borrower agrees that at any time and from time to
time, at the expense of Borrowers, such Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver all further
instruments, and take all further action, that Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect
and protect the pledge, security interest and Lien granted or purported to be granted hereby, or to
enable Lender to exercise and enforce Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder with respect to, the
Account Collateral.

               (e) Transfers and Other Liens. Each Borrower agrees that it will not sell or
otherwise dispose of any of the Account Collateral other than pursuant to the terms hereof and of
the other Loan Documents, or create or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to all or any
of the Account Collateral, except for the Liens granted to Lender under this Agreement.

               (f) Lender’s Reasonable Care. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody
thereof, Lender shall not have any duty as to any Account Collateral or any income thereon in
Lender’s possession or control or in the possession or control of any agents for, or of Lender, or
the preservation of rights against any Person or otherwise with respect thereto. Lender shall be
deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Account Collateral in Lender’s
possession if the Account Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Lender
accords Lender’s own property, it being understood that Lender shall not be liable or responsible
for (i) any loss or damage to any of the Account Collateral, or for any diminution in value thereof
from a loss of, or delay in Lender’s acknowledging receipt of, any wire transfer from the
Collection Account Bank or from any Manager Account or (ii) any loss, damage or diminution in value
by reason of the act or omission of Lender, or Lender’s agents, employees or bailees, except for
any loss, damage or diminution in value resulting from the gross negligence, fraud or willful
misconduct of Lender, its agents or employees.

44

 

               (g) Lender Appointed Attorney-In-Fact. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes
and appoints Lender as such Borrower’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of
substitution, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to
execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and to exercise and enforce every right, power,
remedy, option and privilege of such Borrower with respect to the Account Collateral, and do in the
name, place and stead of such Borrower, all such acts, things and deeds for and on behalf of and in
the name of such Borrower with respect to the Account Collateral, which such Borrower could or
might do or which Lender may deem necessary or desirable to more fully vest in Lender the rights
and remedies provided for herein with respect to the Account Collateral and to accomplish the
purposes of this Agreement. The foregoing powers of attorney are irrevocable and coupled with an
interest.

               (h) Continuing Security Interest; Termination. This Section shall create a
continuing pledge of, Lien on and security interest in the Account Collateral and shall remain in
full force and effect until payment in full of the Indebtedness. Upon payment in full of the
Indebtedness, each applicable Borrower shall be entitled to the return, upon such Borrower’s
written request and at Borrowers’ expense, of such of the Account Collateral as shall not have been
sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and Lender shall execute such instruments
and documents as may be reasonably requested by such Borrower in writing to evidence such
termination and the release of the pledge and Lien hereof, provided, however, that
such Borrower shall pay on demand all of Lender’s expenses in connection therewith.

     Section 2.13. Secondary Market Transactions.

               (a) Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that Lender may in one or more transactions (i) sell or
securitize the Loan or portions thereof in one or more transactions through the issuance of
securities, which securities may be rated by one or more of the Rating Agencies, (ii) sell or
otherwise transfer the Loan or any portion thereof one or more times, (iii) sell participation
interests (including without limitation, senior and subordinate participation interests) in the
Loan one or more times, (iv) re-securitize the securities issued in connection with any
securitization, or (v) further divide the Loan into more separate notes, loans or components or
change the principal balances (but not increase the aggregate principal balance) or interest rates
of the Notes (including, without limitation, senior and subordinate notes or components) (the
transactions referred to in clauses (i) through (v), each a “Secondary Market Transaction”
and collectively “Secondary Market Transactions”).

               (b) With respect to any Secondary Market Transaction described in Section 2.13(a)(v)
above, such notes or note components may be assigned different interest rates, so long as, at such
time the weighted average of the relevant interest rates equals the Interest Rate;
provided, that after an Event of Default each Borrower recognizes that, in the case of
prepayments, the weighted average interest rate of the Loan may increase because Lender shall have
the right to apply principal payments to one or more notes or components with lower rates of
interest before applying principal payments to one or more notes or components with higher rates of
interest; and provided, further, that the principal balance of the Note shall not
change. Lender shall have the same rights to sell or otherwise transfer, participate or securitize
one or more of the divided, amended, modified or otherwise changed notes or components,
individually or collectively, as Lender has with respect to the Loan.

45

 

               (c) Each Borrower agrees that it shall cooperate with Lender and use such Borrower’s
commercially reasonably efforts to facilitate the consummation of each Secondary Market Transaction
including, without limitation, by: (i) amending or causing the amendment of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, and executing such additional documents, instruments and agreements including
amendments to such Borrower’s organizational documents and preparing financial statements as
requested by the Rating Agencies to conform the terms of the Loan to the terms of similar loans
underlying completed or pending secondary market transactions having or seeking ratings similar to
those then being sought in connection with the relevant Secondary Market Transaction; (ii) promptly
and reasonably providing such information (including, without limitation, financial information) as
may be requested in connection with the preparation of a private placement memorandum, prospectus
or a registration statement required to privately place or publicly distribute the securities in a
manner which does not conflict with federal or state securities laws; (iii) providing in connection
with each of (A) a preliminary and a final private placement memorandum or other offering documents
or (B) a preliminary and final prospectus, as applicable, an indemnification certificate (x)
certifying that such Borrower has carefully examined such private placement memorandum, prospectus,
registration statement or other offering document, as applicable, including, without limitation,
the sections entitled “Special Considerations,” “Description of the Mortgage Loan,” “The Underlying
Mortgaged Property,” “The Manager,” “Borrower” and “Certain Legal Aspects of the Mortgage Loan,”
and such sections (and any other sections requested) insofar as they relate to a Borrower, its
Affiliates, the Loan or any Individual Property does not contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that such
Borrower shall not be required to indemnify Lender for any losses relating to untrue statements or
omissions which such Borrower identified to Lender in writing at the time of such Borrower’s
examination of such memorandum or prospectus, as applicable, and (y) indemnifying (i) Lender and
each of its affiliates and their respective successors and assigns (including their respective
officers, directors, partners, employees, attorneys, accountants, professionals and agents and each
other person, if any, controlling Lender or any of its affiliates within the meaning of either
Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or Section 20
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (each, including
Lender, an “Indemnified Party”) and the (ii) party that has filed the registration
statement relating to the Secondary Market Transaction (the “Registration Statement”), each
of its directors and officers who have signed the Registration Statement and each Person that
controls such Party within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act (collective, the “Underwriter Group”), for any losses, claims, damages, costs,
expenses or liabilities (including, without limitation, all liabilities under all applicable
federal and state securities laws) (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which any of them
may become subject (a) insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact relating to any Borrower, its
Affiliates, the Loan, any Individual Property, any Manager and the Operating Lessee contained in
such sections or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated in such sections or necessary in order to make the statements
in such sections, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (b)
as a result of any untrue statement of material fact in any of the financial statements of any
Borrower incorporated into

46

 

any placement memorandum, prospectus, registration statement or other document connected with
the issuance of securities or the failure to include in such financial statements or in any
placement memorandum, prospectus, registration statement or other document connected with the
issuance of securities any material fact relating to any Borrower, its Affiliates, any Individual

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     Section 4.1. Representations and Warranties of Borrower and Operating Lessee. Each
Borrower and Operating Lessee represents, warrants and covenants as follows as to all Borrowers,
Operating Lessee, and all Individual Properties, as of December 19, 2005:

                    (A) Organization. That each Borrower and Operating Lessee (i) is a duly organized and
validly existing Entity in good standing under the laws of the State of its formation, (ii) is duly
qualified as a foreign Entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business, the
applicable Individual Properties or any of the Collateral makes such qualification necessary or
desirable, (iii) has the requisite Entity power and authority to carry on its business as now being
conducted, and (iv) has the requisite Entity power to execute and deliver, and perform its
obligations under, the Loan Documents.

                    (B) Authorization. The execution and delivery by each applicable Borrower and
Operating Lessee of the Loan Documents, each Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s performance of its
obligations thereunder and the creation of the security interests and Liens provided for in the
Loan Documents (i) have been duly authorized by all requisite Entity action on the part of each
Borrower and Operating Lessee, (ii) will not violate any provision of any applicable Legal
Requirements, any order, writ, decree, injunction or demand of any court or other Governmental
Authority, any organizational document of any Borrower or Operating Lessee or any indenture or
agreement or other instrument to which any Borrower or Operating Lessee is a party or by which
Borrower or Operating Lessee is bound except, with respect to violations of any such indentures,
agreements or other instruments, where such violation would not have a Material Adverse Effect,
(iii) will not be in conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with due notice or lapse
of time or both) a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien of any nature
whatsoever upon any of the property or assets of any Borrower or Operating Lessee pursuant to, any
indenture or agreement or instrument, and (iv) have been duly executed and delivered by each
Borrower or Operating Lessee, as applicable. Except for those obtained or filed on or prior to the
Closing Date, no Borrower or Operating Lessee is required to obtain any consent, approval or
authorization from,

60

 

or to file any declaration or statement with, any Governmental Authority or other agency in
connection with or as a condition to the execution, delivery or performance of the Loan Documents.
The Loan Documents to which any Borrower, Operating Lessee or any Manager is a party have been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by such parties.

                    (C) Single-Purpose Entity.

                    (i) Each Borrower, each SPE Equity Owner and Operating Lessee has been, and will
continue to be, a duly formed and existing Entity, and a Single-Purpose Entity.

                    (ii) Each SPE Equity Owner at all times since its formation has been, and will continue
to be, a duly formed and existing limited liability company or a limited partnership in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation and a Single-Purpose Entity, is
duly qualified as a foreign entity in each other jurisdiction in which the nature of its
business or any of the Collateral makes such qualification necessary or desirable, and no
Borrower will take action to cause any SPE Equity Owner not to be a duly formed and existing
limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
formation and a Single-Purpose Entity.

                    (iii) Each Borrower and Operating Lessee at all times since its formation has complied,
and will, at all times while the Loan is outstanding, continue to comply, with the
provisions of all of its organizational documents, and the laws of the state in which such
Borrower and Operating Lessee was formed relating to the Entity.

                    (D) Litigation. Except as disclosed on Schedule 1 attached hereto, there are
no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority or
other agency now pending and served or, to the knowledge of any Borrower and Operating Lessee,
threatened against any Borrower, Operating Lessee, any SPE Equity Owner, any Manager or any
Individual Property which, if determined against the Borrowers, Operating Lessee, SPE Owner,
Manager or Individual Property could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                    (E) Agreements. No Borrower or Operating Lessee is a party to any agreement or
instrument or subject to any restriction which is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each
applicable Borrower and Operating Lessee is not in default in any material respect in the
performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained
in any indenture, agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which such Borrower,
Operating Lessee or the applicable Individual Property is bound which could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                    (F) No Bankruptcy Filing. No Borrower or Operating Lessee is contemplating either the
filing of a petition under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of
all or a major portion of any Borrower’s assets or property, and no Borrower or Operating Lessee
has any knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against any Borrower
or Operating Lessee.

61

 

                    (G) Full and Accurate Disclosure. No statement of fact made by Borrower or Operating
Lessee in the Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any
material fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading. There is no
fact presently known to any Borrower or Operating Lessee which has not been disclosed to Lender
which materially adversely affects, nor as far as any Borrower or Operating Lessee can foresee,
might materially adversely affect the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of
any Borrower or Operating Lessee.

                    (H) Management Agreements. Each Management Agreement is valid, binding and
enforceable and in full force and effect and has not been modified (other than by written
instrument provided to Lender or except as otherwise disclosed to Lender in writing) and there are
no material defaults under any of them, nor (a) to Borrowers’ or Operating Lessee’s knowledge has
any event occurred that with the passage of time, the giving of notice or both would result in such
a material default under the terms of each Management Agreement with any Manager other than
Remington Manager, and (b) with respect to any Management Agreement with Remington Manager, has any
event occurred that with the passage of time, the giving of notice or both would result in such a
material default under the terms of such Management Agreement

                    (I) Compliance. Except as expressly disclosed in the Engineering Reports, the
Environmental Reports, the PZR zoning reports or the Surveys delivered to Lender by Borrower, each
applicable Borrower, Operating Lessee, each Individual Property and each applicable Borrower’s or
Operating Lessee’s use thereof as a hotel and operations thereat comply in all material respects
with all applicable Legal Requirements and all Insurance Requirements. No Borrower is in default
or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority, the
violation of which is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                    (J) Other Debt and Obligations. No Borrower or Operating Lessee has any financial
obligation under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement
or instrument to which any Borrower or Operating Lessee is a party, or by which Borrower, Operating
Lessee or any Individual Property is bound, other than (a) unsecured trade payables incurred in the
ordinary course of business relating to the ownership and operation of an Individual Property which
are not evidenced by a promissory note and when aggregated with the unsecured trade payables of all
other Borrowers and Operating Lessee, do not exceed a maximum amount of two and one-half percent
(2.5%) of the Loan Amount and are paid within sixty (60) days of the date incurred (unless same are
being contested in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), and (b) obligations under the
Mortgage and the other Loan Documents. No Borrower or Operating Lessee has borrowed or received
other debt financing that has not been heretofore repaid in full and no Borrower has any known
material contingent liabilities.

                    (K) ERISA. (a) Each Plan and, to the knowledge of any Borrower or Operating Lessee,
each Multiemployer Plan, is in compliance in all material respects with, and has been administered
in all material respects in compliance with, its terms and the applicable provisions of
ERISA, the Code and any other federal or state law, and no

62

 

event or condition has occurred as to which any Borrower or Operating Lessee would be under an
obligation to furnish a report to Lender under Section 5.1(S).

                         (b) As of the date hereof and throughout the term of the Loan (a) no Borrower or Operating
Lessee is or will be an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, subject to
Title I of ERISA, or a “plan,” as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, subject to Code
Section 4975, (b) no Borrower or Operating Lessee is or will be a “governmental plan” within the
meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA, (c) none of the assets of any Borrower or Operating Lessee
constitutes or will constitute “plan assets” of one or more of any such plans under 29 C.F.R.
Section 2510.3-101 or otherwise, and (d) transactions by or with each Borrower or Operating Lessee
do not and will not violate state statutes regulating investment of, and fiduciary obligations with
respect to, governmental plans and such state statutes do not in any manner affect the ability of
the Borrower or Operating Lessee to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents or the ability
of Lender to enforce any and all of its rights under the Loan Agreement.

                    (L) Solvency. No Borrower or Operating Lessee has entered into this Loan Agreement or
any Loan Document with the actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor, and each
Borrower and Operating Lessee has received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its
obligations under the Loan Documents. Giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby and
the agreements set forth herein, the fair saleable value of each of Borrower’s and Operating
Lessee’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, exceed such Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s, as applicable, total liabilities,
including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, or disputed liabilities or Contingent
Obligations. The fair saleable value of each Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s assets is and will,
immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, be greater than such Borrower’s
or Operating Lessee’s, as applicable, probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its
Contingent Obligations or its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. No Borrower’s or
Operating Lessee’s assets do and, immediately following the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, will, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as
proposed to be conducted. No Borrower or Operating Lessee intends to, or believes that it will,
incur debts and liabilities (including, without limitation, Contingent Obligations and other
commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing
and amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of each Borrower).

                    (M) Not Foreign Person. No Borrower or Operating Lessee is a “foreign person” within
the meaning of § 1445(f)(3) of the Code.

                    (N) Investment Company Act; Public Utility Holding Company Act. No Borrower or
Operating Lessee is (i) an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment
company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (ii) a “holding
company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” or an “affiliate” of either a “holding
company” or a “subsidiary company” within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of
1935, as amended, or (iii) subject to any other federal or state law or regulation which purports
to restrict or regulate its ability to borrow money.

63

 

                    (O) No Defaults. No Event of Default or, to Borrower’s knowledge, Default exists
under or with respect to any Loan Document.

                    (P) Labor Matters. No Borrower or Operating Lessee is a party to any collective
bargaining agreements.

                    (Q) Title to the Property. Each Borrower owns either good, indefeasible and
marketable fee simple or leasehold title to the applicable Individual Properties which it owns,
free and clear of all Liens, other than the Permitted Encumbrances applicable to such Individual
Property. There are no outstanding options to purchase or rights of first refusal affecting any
Individual Property. The Permitted Encumbrances do not and are not likely to materially and
adversely affect (i) the ability of any Borrower to pay in full all sums due under the Notes or any
of its other obligations in a timely manner or (ii) the use of any Individual Property for the use
currently being made thereof, the operation of such Individual Property as currently being operated
or the value of any Individual Property.

                    (R) Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. Each Borrower will use the proceeds of the
Loan for the purposes described in Section 2.2. No part of the proceeds of the Loan will
be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any “margin stock” within the meaning of
Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose which
would be inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other Regulations of such Board of Governors,
or for any purposes prohibited by applicable Legal Requirements.

                    (S) Financial Information. All historical financial data concerning any Borrower,
Operating Lessee or any Individual Property (including without limitation all rent rolls and
operating statements) that has been delivered by any Borrower or Operating Lessee to Lender is
true, complete and correct in all material respects. Since the delivery of such data, except as
otherwise disclosed in writing to Lender, there has been no material adverse change in the
financial position of any Borrower, Operating Lessee or Individual Property, or in the results of
operations of any Borrower or Operating Lessee. No Borrower or Operating Lessee has incurred any
obligation or liability, contingent or otherwise, not reflected in such financial data which might
materially adversely affect its business operations or any Individual Property.

                    (T) Condemnation. No Taking has been commenced or, to any Borrower’s or Operating
Lessee’s knowledge, is contemplated with respect to all or any portion of any Individual Property
or for the relocation of roadways providing access to any Individual Property.

                    (U) Utilities and Public Access. Except as otherwise disclosed on the Surveys, each
Individual Property has adequate rights of access to public ways and is served by adequate water,
sewer, sanitary sewer and storm drain facilities as are adequate for full utilization of such
Individual Property for its current purpose. Except as otherwise disclosed by the Surveys, all
public utilities necessary to the continued use and enjoyment of each Individual Property as
presently used and enjoyed are located in the public right-of-way abutting the premises, and all
such utilities are connected so as to serve each Individual Property either (i) without passing
over other property or, (ii) if such utilities pass over other property, pursuant to

64

 

valid easements. All roads necessary for the full utilization of each Individual Property for
its current purpose have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all
Governmental Authorities or are the subject of access easements for the benefit of such Individual
Property.

                    (V) Environmental Compliance. Except as disclosed in the Environmental Reports, each
of Borrower and Operating Lessee represents, warrants and covenants, as to itself and its
applicable Individual Property: (a) there are no Hazardous Substances or underground storage tanks
in, on, or under such Individual Property, except those that are both (i) in compliance with all
Environmental Laws and with permits issued pursuant thereto and (ii) which do not require
Remediation; (b) there are no past, present or threatened Releases of Hazardous Substances in, on,
under, from or affecting any Individual Property which have not been fully Remediated in accordance
with Environmental Law; (c) there is no Release or threat of any Release of Hazardous Substances
which has or is migrating to any Individual Property; (d) there is no past or present
non-compliance with Environmental Laws, or with permits issued pursuant thereto, in connection with
any Individual Property which has not been fully Remediated in accordance with Environmental Law;
(e) such Borrower and Operating Lessee does not know of, and has not received, any written or oral
notice or other communication from any Person (including but not limited to a governmental entity)
relating to Hazardous Substances or the Remediation thereof, of possible liability of any Person
pursuant to any Environmental Law, other environmental conditions in connection with any Individual
Property, or any actual or potential administrative or judicial proceedings in connection with any
of the foregoing; and (f) such Borrower or Operating Lessee has truthfully and fully provided to
Lender, in writing, any and all information relating to conditions in, on, under or from each
Individual Property that is known to such Borrower or Operating Lessee and that is contained in
files and records of such Borrower or Operating Lessee, including but not limited to any reports
relating to Hazardous Substances in, on, under or from such Individual Property and/or to the
environmental condition of each Individual Property.

                    (W) No Joint Assessment; Separate Lots. No Borrower or Operating Lessee has or shall
suffer, permit or initiate the joint assessment of any applicable Individual Property (i) with any
other real property constituting a separate tax lot, and (ii) with any portion of any Individual
Property which may be deemed to constitute personal property, or any other procedure whereby the
lien of any taxes which may be levied against such personal property shall be assessed or levied or
charged to any Individual Property as a single lien. Each Individual Property is comprised of one
or more parcels, each of which constitutes a separate tax lot and none of which constitutes a
portion of any other tax lot.

                    (X) Assessments. Except as disclosed in the Title Insurance Policy and any title
exception documents referenced therein, there are no pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower
or Operating Lessee, proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or otherwise
affecting any Individual Property, nor, to the knowledge of any Borrower or Operating Lessee, are
there any contemplated improvements to any Individual Property that may result in such special or
other assessments.

                    (Y) Mortgage and Other Liens. The Mortgages create valid and enforceable first
mortgage Liens on each Individual Property as security for the repayment of the

65

 

Indebtedness, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances applicable to such Individual
Property. Each security agreement, assignment, pledge, grant or other hypothecation which is
contained in any Loan Document establishes and creates a valid and enforceable lien on and a
security interest in, or claim to, the rights and property described therein. All property covered
by each such security agreement, assignment, pledge, grant or other hypothecation is subject to a
UCC financing statement filed and/or recorded, as appropriate, in all places necessary to perfect a
valid first priority lien with respect to the rights and property that are the subject of such
security agreement, assignment, pledge, grant or other hypothecation to the extent governed by the
UCC to the extent such a security interest in such property is perfectible by the filing of a UCC
financing statement.

                    (Z) Enforceability. The Loan Documents executed by each applicable Borrower or
Operating Lessee in connection with the Loan are the legal, valid and binding obligations of each
such Borrower or Operating Lessee, enforceable against each such Borrower or Operating Lessee in
accordance with their terms, subject only to bankruptcy, insolvency and other limitations on
creditors’ rights generally and to equitable principles. Such Loan Documents are, as of the
Closing Date, not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense by any
Borrower or Operating Lessee, including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the
terms of the Notes, any Mortgage, or such other Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right
thereunder, render any Mortgage unenforceable against any Borrower or Operating Lessee, in whole or
in part, or subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense by any Borrower or
Operating Lessee, including the defense of usury, and no Borrower or Operating Lessee has asserted
any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense with respect thereto.

                    (AA) No Liabilities. No Borrower or Operating Lessee has any liabilities or
obligations including, without limitation, Contingent Obligations (and including, without
limitation, liabilities or obligations in tort, in contract, at law, in equity, pursuant to a
statute or regulation, or otherwise) other than those liabilities and obligations expressly
permitted by this Agreement.

                    (BB) No Prior Assignment. As of the Closing Date, (i) Lender is the assignee of each
Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s interest under the Leases, and (ii) there are no prior assignments
of the Leases or any portion of the Rents due and payable or to become due and payable which are
presently outstanding.

                    (CC) Certificate of Occupancy. Borrowers and Operating Lessee have provided to Lender
copies of all Permits for each Individual Property necessary to use and operate the Individual
Property for the use described in Section 3.1(R) where such Permits are available, or
otherwise confirmation of issuance of such Permits either in the PZR Report or from the applicable
zoning authority, and where such Permits require re-issuance in the event of a transfer of title to
an Individual Property, the applicable Borrower is diligently pursuing a Permit in the name of the
applicable Borrower. The use being made of each Individual Property is in conformity with the
certificate of occupancy and/or Permits for each such Individual Property and any other
restrictions, covenants or conditions affecting each such Individual Property to the extent that
any existing nonconformity would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

66

 

Each such Individual Property contains all equipment necessary to use and operate each such
Individual Property in a first-class manner.

                    (DD) Flood Zone. Except as shown on a Survey, no Individual Property is located in a
flood hazard area as designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

                    (EE) Physical Condition. Except as disclosed in an Engineering Report, each
Individual Property is free of material structural defects and all building systems contained
therein are in good working order in all material respects subject to ordinary wear and tear.

                    (FF) Intellectual Property. All trademarks, trade names and service marks owned by
any Borrower or Operating Lessee or that are pending, or under which any Borrower or Operating
Lessee is licensed, are in good standing and uncontested. There is no right under any trademark,
trade name or service mark necessary to the business of any Borrower or Operating Lessee as
presently conducted or as Borrower or Operating Lessee contemplates conducting its business. No
Borrower or Operating Lessee has infringed, is infringing, or has received notice of infringement
with respect to asserted trademarks, trade names and service marks of others. To Borrower’s or
Operating Lessee’s knowledge, there is no infringement by others of trademarks, trade names and
service marks of any Borrower or Operating Lessee.

                    (GG) Intentionally Omitted.

                    (HH) Title Insurance. Each Individual Property is covered by either an American Land
Title Association (ALTA) mortgagee’s title insurance policy, or a commitment to issue such a title
insurance policy, insuring a valid first lien on such Individual Property, which is in full force

Property does not exceed the Tax Fair Market Value of such Individual Property. The Loan Amount
does not exceed the aggregate Tax Fair Market Values of the Individual Properties. If any Note is
significantly modified prior to the closing date of a Secondary Market Transaction so as to result
in a taxable exchange under Code Section 1001, Borrowers will, if requested by Lender, represent
that the amount of such Note does not exceed the aggregate Tax Fair Market Value of the applicable
Individual Property as of the date of such significant modification.

first refusal to purchase, expansion right, or any other similar provision; and (i) no Person has
any possessory interest in, or right to occupy, any Individual Property except under and pursuant
to a Lease.

                    (KK) Bank Holding Company. No Borrower or Operating Lessee is a “bank holding
company” or a direct or indirect subsidiary of a “bank holding company” as defined in the Bank

is prohibited by law, or (ii) the Loan made by the Lender is in violation of law (“Embargoed
Person”); (b) no Embargoed Person has any interest of any nature whatsoever in any Borrower,

                    (MM) Illegal Activity. No portion of any of each Individual Property has been or will
be purchased, improved, equipped or furnished with proceeds of any illegal activity.

                    (NN) Compliance. No Borrower or Operating Lessee, and to the best of each Borrower’s
and Operating Lessee’s knowledge after due and diligent inquiry, neither (a) any Person owning an
interest in a Borrower, Operating Lessee or any SPE Equity Owner, (b) each Manager, and (c) any
tenant at each Individual Property: (i) is currently identified on the OFAC List (“OFAC

Operating Lessee has implemented procedures, and will consistently apply those procedures
throughout the term of the Loan, to ensure the foregoing representations and warranties remain true
and correct during the term of the Loan.

                    (OO) Operating Budget. Attached hereto as Exhibit E is a true, complete and

expenditure and completion pursuant to each Property Improvement Plan.

                    (RR) Franchise Agreements. Each Franchise Agreement is in full force and effect,
there is no material default thereunder by any party thereto and to the best of Borrower’s and
Operating Lessee’s knowledge and except as set forth on Schedule 2 hereof, no event has
occurred that, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice would constitute a default
thereunder, and no fees under any Franchise Agreement are accrued and unpaid.

     Section 4.2. Survival of Representations and Warranties.

          Each Borrower and Operating Lessee agrees that (i) all of the representations and warranties
of each Borrower set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents delivered on the

representations and warranties made by each Borrower shall survive the delivery of the Note and
continue for so long as any amount remains owing to Lender under this Agreement, the Note or any of
the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that the representations, warranties
and covenants set forth in Section 4.1(V), Section 4.1(LL), Section 4.1(NN)
and Sections 5.1(D) through 5.1(G), inclusive, shall survive in perpetuity and

made by Lender or on its behalf. Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, with
respect to each Secondary Market Transaction, within three (3) days of receipt of Lender’s request,
each Borrower or Operating Lessee shall deliver to Lender a certification (a) remaking all of the
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement as of the date of such Secondary Market
Transaction, or (y) otherwise specifying any changes in or qualifications to such representations
and warranties as of such date as may be necessary to make such representations consistent with the
facts as they exist on such date.

and with due diligence, the validity or application, in whole or in part, of any such applicable

interest therein, will be sold, forfeited or lost or subject to a continuing Lien if such Borrower

or Operating Lessee would have the opportunity to do so, in the event of such Borrower’s or
Operating Lessee’s failure to prevail in the contest, (ii) Lender would not, by virtue of such

deliver the results of any such assessment, audit, sampling or other testing; provided, further,
that such Borrowers, the Environmental Indemnified Parties and any other Person designated by the

obligation, to enter upon such Individual Property at all reasonable times (without materially
interfering with the business conducted at the Individual Property) to assess any and all aspects
of the environmental condition of such Individual Property and its use, including but not limited
to conducting any environmental assessment or audit (the scope of which shall be determined in the

IT IS EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED BY EACH BORROWER THAT THE INDEMNITY (AND/OR THE RELEASE)
CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 5.1(F)

73

 

PROTECTS LENDER FROM THE CONSEQUENCES OF LENDER’S ACTS OR OMISSIONS, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION, THE NEGLIGENT ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF LENDER TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, THAT NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL BE DEEMED TO RELIEVE THE LENDER FROM LIABILITY DUE TO
ITS FRAUD, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE.

                    (G) Duty to Defend. Upon written request by any Environmental Indemnified Party,

the Environmental Indemnified Parties. Borrowers shall, within five Business Days of receipt
thereof, give written notice to Lender of (i) any notice, advice or other communication from any
governmental entity or any source whatsoever with respect to Hazardous Substances on, from or

Agreement. Such notice shall comply with the provisions of Section 8.6 hereof.

                    (H) Operating Lease.

                    (i) Each Borrower shall (a) promptly perform and observe all of the covenants required

preserve and to keep unimpaired its material rights thereunder; (b) promptly notify Lender
of any material default under any Operating Lease of which it is aware; (c) promptly deliver
to Lender a copy of any notice of default or other material notice under any Operating Lease
delivered to any Operating Lessee by Borrower; (d) promptly give notice to Lender of any
notice or information that Borrower receives which indicates that an Operating Lessee is

operation of the applicable Individual Property; and (e) promptly enforce the performance
and observance of all of the material covenants required to be performed and observed by the
Operating Lessee under the applicable Operating Lease.

                    (ii) If at any time, (A) an Operating Lessee shall become insolvent or a debtor in a
bankruptcy proceeding or (B) Lender or its designee has taken title to an Individual
Property by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, has become a
mortgagee-in-possession, has appointed a receiver with respect to the applicable Individual
Property or has otherwise taken title to such Individual Property, Lender shall have the

the applicable Operating Lease under and in accordance with the terms of the applicable
Subordination, Attornment and Security Agreement.

                    (iii) Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld: (a) surrender, terminate or cancel any Operating Lease
or otherwise replace any Operating Lessee or

74

 

enter into any other operating lease with respect to any Individual Property, provided,
however, at the end of the term of each Operating Lease, the applicable Borrower may renew
such Operating Lease or enter into a replacement Operating Lease with Operating Lessee on
substantially the same terms as the expiring Operating Lease except that Lender shall have
the right to approve any material change thereto; (b) reduce or consent to the reduction of
the term of any Operating Lease; or (c) enter into, renew, amend, modify, waive any
provisions of, reduce Rents under, or shorten the term of any Operating Lease.

                    (i) Each Individual Property shall be operated under the terms and conditions of the
applicable Management Agreement. Each Borrower shall or shall cause the applicable
Operating Lessee to (x) pay all sums required to be paid by the owner under each Management
Agreement, (y) diligently perform, observe and enforce all of the terms, covenants and
conditions of each Management Agreement on the part of the owner thereunder to be performed,
observed and enforced to the end that all things shall be done which are necessary to keep
unimpaired the rights of said owner under each Management Agreement, (z) promptly notify
Lender of the giving of any written notice to any Borrower and/or Operating Lessee of any
default by the owner in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of any Management Agreement on the part of the owner thereunder to be performed
and observed (which Borrower or Operating Lessee may contest in accordance with the terms of
the Management Agreement) and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice, and (aa)
promptly deliver to Lender a copy of each financial statement, business plan, capital
expenditure plan, notice of a default under the Management Agreement, report regarding
operations at the related Individual Property, estimates of any monetary nature and any
other items reasonably requested by Lender, in each case received by any Borrower or
Operating Lessee under any Management Agreement.

                    (ii) No Borrower shall (and shall not cause or permit any Operating Lessee to), without
the prior consent of the Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld),
surrender any Management Agreement or terminate or cancel any Management Agreement or
modify, change, supplement, alter or amend, in any material respect, any Management
Agreement, either orally or in writing, and each Borrower hereby assigns to Lender as
further security for the payment of the Indebtedness and for the performance and observance
of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Loan Agreement, any and all rights,
privileges and prerogatives of each Borrower to surrender any Management Agreement or to
terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend, in any material respect, any
Management Agreement, and any such surrender of any Management Agreement or termination,
cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of any Management
Agreement without the prior consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld) shall be void and of no force and effect.

                    (iii) If any Borrower or Operating Lessee shall default in the performance or
observance of any material term, covenant or condition of any

75

 

Management Agreement on the part of the Borrower or Operating Lessee thereunder to be
performed or observed beyond any applicable notice and cure periods contained therein, and
Borrower or Operating Lessee is not contesting the validity of such default in good faith in
accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement, then, without limiting the generality
of the other provisions of this Agreement, and without waiving or releasing any Borrower
from any of its obligations hereunder, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no
obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate
to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of such Management Agreement on the part of
the owner to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of such
Borrower, to the end that the rights of said Borrower and/or Operating Lessee in, to and
under such Management Agreement shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. Any such
amounts so advanced by Lender together with interest thereon from the date expended by
Lender of the Default Rate shall be part of the Indebtedness and Borrower shall immediately
repay such amounts to Lender upon demand. Pursuant to the terms of the applicable
Subordination, Attornment and Security Agreement and/or Assignment of Management Agreement,
Lender and any person designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to
enter upon the applicable Individual Property at any time and from time to time for the
purpose of taking any such action. If any Manager shall deliver to Lender a copy of any
notice sent to any Borrower and/or Operating Lessee of any default under any Management
Agreement, and Borrower or Operating Lessee is not contesting said default in good faith in
accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement, such notice shall constitute full
protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender in good faith, in
reliance thereon.

                         (iv) Each Borrower shall (or shall cause the applicable Operating Lessee to) exercise
each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of each Management Agreement
upon demand by Lender made at any time within ninety (90) days prior to the last day upon
which any such option may be exercised, and each Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and
appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact to exercise (or cause the applicable Operating
Lessee to exercise) any such option in the name of and upon behalf of such Borrower should
such Borrower fail to do so, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be
deemed to be coupled with an interest.

                         (v) Any sums expended by Lender pursuant to this Section shall bear interest at the
Default Rate from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall be
deemed to constitute a portion of the Indebtedness, shall be secured by the lien of the
Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable within two
(2) Business Days after demand by Lender therefor.

                         (vi) Each Borrower shall, promptly upon request of Lender, but no more than two (2)
times in any calendar year during the term of the Loan (unless (x) an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing or (y) such request is occasioned in connection with a Secondary
Market Transaction) use its diligent best efforts to obtain and deliver (or cause to be
delivered) an estoppel certificate from each Manager (A) certifying (1) that the Management
Agreement is unmodified and in full

76

 

force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same, as modified, is
in full force and effect and stating the modifications), and (2) the date through which the
management fees due under the Management Agreement have been paid; (B) stating whether or
not to the best knowledge of Manager (1) there is a continuing default by Borrower or
Operating Lessee in the performance or observance of any covenant, agreement or condition
contained in the Management Agreement or the Operating Lease, or (2) there shall have
occurred any event that, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, would become
such a default, and, if so, specifying each such default or occurrence of which Manager may
have knowledge; and (C) stating such other information as Lender may reasonably request.
Such statement shall be binding upon Manager and may be relied upon by Lender and/or such
third party specified by Lender.

                    (vii) Upon the termination of any Management Agreement, subject to Section
5.1(P), each Borrower shall (or shall cause Operating Lessee to) promptly enter into a
new Management Agreement with a replacement Manager, which shall deliver a comfort or

therewith, not prohibit Lender, at its election, from participating in any such proceedings.

                    (M) Perform Loan Documents. Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall observe, perform and
satisfy all the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions required to be observed, performed or

and instrument required to be furnished pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents;

                    (iii) execute and deliver to Lender such documents, instruments, certificates,

the better and more effective carrying out of the intents and purposes of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, as Lender shall require from time to time in its reasonable
discretion.

                    (P) Management of Property.

                    (i) Each Individual Property will be managed at all times by the applicable Manager
pursuant to a Management Agreement unless terminated as herein provided. Subject to
Section 5.1(I), each Borrower and Operating Lessee shall comply with the terms of
and enforce its rights under the Management Agreement in all material respects. The
Management Agreement shall be terminated by Borrowers or Operating Lessee, at Lender’s
request, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Borrowers, Operating Lessee and the
applicable Manager (i) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, (ii) if the applicable
Manager commits any act which would permit termination by any Borrower or Operating Lessee
under the Management Agreement and/or any applicable Franchise Agreement, (iii) the
applicable Manager commits any act which constitutes an act of fraud, material
misrepresentation, intentional misrepresentation, gross negligence, willful misconduct,
misappropriation of funds, or intentional physical waste of any Individual Property, or (iv)
Borrower changes the

78

 

Manager or Franchisor of an Individual Property without prior written consent of Lender
(except as otherwise permitted hereunder). If a manager is terminated pursuant hereto, or
the Management Agreement is otherwise terminated by Manager pursuant to the terms contained
therein, Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall promptly seek to appoint a replacement manager
acceptable to Lender in Lender’s discretion, and Borrowers’ or Operating Lessee’s failure to
appoint an acceptable manager within thirty (30) days after Lender’s request of Borrowers to
terminate the Management Agreement or other termination of the Management Agreement shall
constitute an immediate Event of Default. Borrowers or Operating Lessee may from time to
time appoint a successor manager to manage an Individual Property, which successor manager
shall be approved in writing by Lender in Lender’s discretion. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any successor manager selected hereunder by Lender, any Borrower or Operating
Lessee to serve as Manager (a) shall be either (1) the Remington Manager provided,
that the Remington Manager shall manage the applicable Individual Property pursuant to the
terms of the master management agreement by and among the Borrowers and the Remington
Manager, or (2) a reputable management company having at least seven (7) years’ experience
in the management of commercial properties with similar uses as the Individual Properties
and in the jurisdiction in which the Individual Properties are located and (ii) shall not be
paid management fees in excess of fees which are market fees for comparable managers of
comparable properties in the same geographic area.

                    (ii) In the event that Marriott is Manager pursuant to a Management Agreement and
elects not to renew the term of the Management Agreement at the end of the initial term or
any renewal term of the Management Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, or the
Management Agreement is otherwise terminated by Manager pursuant to the terms contained
therein, then Borrower and Operating Lessee, upon notice of Marriott’s election not to renew
the Management Agreement or within thirty (30) days of any other termination of the
Management Agreement, shall promptly seek to appoint (x) a replacement manager acceptable to
Lender and the Rating Agencies, each in their discretion, and (y) a replacement hotel
franchise, acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies, each in their discretion, to occupy
and operate at the applicable Individual Property. Borrowers’ or Operating Lessee’s failure
to appoint an acceptable manager by the time the Management Agreement expires by its terms
or within thirty (30) days of any other termination of the Management Agreement, shall
constitute an immediate Event of Default. Borrowers’ or Operating Lessee’s failure to enter
into hotel management and operating agreements and other documents in connection therewith
(such as subordinations and comfort letters) acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies,
each in their discretion, with an acceptable hotel franchise to operate a hotel at the
applicable Individual Property by the time the Management Agreement expires by its terms
shall constitute an immediate Event of Default. For the purposes of this paragraph, (1)
Remington Manager shall be deemed an acceptable replacement manager, and (2) Starwood Hotels
& Resorts Worldwide, Inc., Hilton Hotels Corporation, Marriott International, Inc. or any
brand of any of them shall be deemed an acceptable replacement hotel franchise, and the
approval of any of the foregoing as manager or hotel franchise, as applicable, by Lender and
the Rating Agencies will not be required.

Lessee shall pay any out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender to examine any and
all of such Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s books, records and accounts as Lender shall
determine in Lender’s discretion to be necessary or appropriate in the protection of

days after request, such further information with respect to the operation of all applicable
Individual Properties and the financial affairs of such Borrower or Operating Lessee, as

                    (x) Each Borrower and Operating Lessee shall furnish to Lender annually no less than
thirty (30) days prior to the beginning of each Fiscal Year, a true, complete, correct and
accurate copy of such Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s draft annual capital and operating
budget for each such Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s Individual Property (each, an
“Approved Budget”), which Approved Budgets shall be subject to Lender’s prior review

of such event (provided that a failure to meet the minimum funding standard of Section 412
of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA, including, without limitation, the failure to make on
or before its due date a required

83

 

installment under Section 412(m) of the Code or Section 302(e) of ERISA, shall be a
reportable event regardless of the issuance of any waivers in accordance with Section 412(d)

                    (iv) the complete or partial withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan by any Borrower,
Operating Lessee or any ERISA Affiliate that results in liability under Section 4201 or 4204
of ERISA (including the obligation to satisfy secondary liability as a result of a purchaser
default) or the receipt by any Borrower, Operating Lessee or any ERISA Affiliate of notice
from a Multiemployer Plan that it is in reorganization or insolvency pursuant to Section
4241 or 4245 of ERISA or that it intends to terminate or has terminated under Section 4041A

                    (vi) the adoption of an amendment to any Plan that, pursuant to Section 401(a)(29) of
the Code or Section 307 of ERISA, would result in the loss of tax exempt status of the trust
of which such Plan is a part if any Borrower, Operating Lessee or an ERISA Affiliate fails
to timely provide security to the Plan in accordance with the provisions of said Sections;
and

                    (vii) the imposition of a lien or a security interest in connection with a Plan.

                         (b) No Borrower or Operating Lessee shall engage in any transaction which would cause any

rights under the Notes, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) to be a non-exempt (under a
statutory or administrative class exemption) prohibited transaction under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”).

                         (c) Each applicable Borrower and Operating Lessee hereby certifies and shall deliver to Lender
such certifications or other evidence from time to time throughout the term of the Loan, as

(iii) such Borrower or Operating Lessee qualifies as an “operating company” within the meaning of
29 C.F.R. §2510.3-101(c).

                         (d) If an investor or equity owner in any Borrower or Operating Lessee is (directly or
indirectly) a plan that is not subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, but is
subject to the provisions of any federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or regulations that
are similar to those portions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, “Other Plan Laws”), the assets of
such Borrower or Operating Lessee shall not constitute the assets of such plan under such Other
Plan Laws.

                    (T) Single Purpose Entity. Each Borrower, each SPE Equity Owner and Operating Lessee

spend an unreasonable amount on the foregoing items (i) and (ii) (it being agreed that, with
respect to any PIP Work, an amount less than or equal to the related PIP Costs shall be a
reasonable amount, and, with respect to any capital improvement, an amount less than

85

 

or equal to the related cost of such capital improvement shown on Exhibit J shall be

Section remain true and correct and have not been breached. Each Borrower and Operating Lessee
shall immediately notify Lender in writing if any representations, warranties or covenants are no
longer true or have been breached or if such Borrower or Operating Lessee has a reasonable basis to
believe that they may no longer be true or have been breached. In connection with such an event,
such Borrower or Operating Lessee shall comply with all Legal Requirements and directives of
Governmental Authorities and, at Lender’s request, provide to Lender copies of all notices, reports
and other communications exchanged with, or received from, Governmental Authorities relating to
such an event. Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall also promptly reimburse to Lender any and all

existence of such an event and for any penalties or fines imposed upon Lender as a result thereof.

                    (Y) Franchise Agreements.

               (a) Each Non-Marriott Property shall be operated under the terms and conditions of the
applicable Franchise Agreement in all material respects. Each Borrower shall or shall cause the
applicable Operating Lessee to (i) pay all sums required to be paid by the franchisee under each
Franchise Agreement, (ii) diligently perform, observe and enforce all of the terms, covenants and
conditions of each Franchise Agreement on the part of the franchisee thereunder to be performed,
observed and enforced to the end that all things shall be done which are necessary to keep
unimpaired the rights of said franchisee under each Franchise Agreement, (iii) promptly notify
Lender of the giving of any notice to any Borrower and/or Operating Lessee of any material default
by the franchisee in the performance or observance of any of the terms,

86

 

covenants or conditions of any Franchise Agreement on the part of the franchisee thereunder to
be performed and observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice, and (iv) promptly
deliver to Lender a copy of each financial statement, business plan, capital expenditure plan,
notice of a material default under the Franchise Agreement, report regarding operations at the
related Individual Property, estimates of any monetary nature and any other items reasonably
requested by Lender, in each case received by any Borrower or Operating Lessee under any Franchise
Agreement.

               (b) No Borrower shall (and shall not cause or permit any Operating Lessee to), without the
prior consent of the Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), surrender any
Franchise Agreement or terminate or cancel any Franchise Agreement or modify, change, supplement,
alter or amend any Franchise Agreement, in any material respect, either orally or in writing, and
each Borrower hereby assigns to Lender as further security for the payment of the Indebtedness and
for the performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Loan Agreement,
any and all rights, privileges and prerogatives of each Borrower to surrender any Franchise
Agreement or to terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend any Franchise
Agreement in any respect, and any such surrender of any Franchise Agreement or termination,
cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of any Franchise Agreement
without the prior consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall be
void and of no force and effect.

               (c) If any franchisee shall default in the performance or observance of any material term,
covenant or condition of any Franchise Agreement on the part of the franchisee thereunder to be
performed or observed, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this
Agreement, and without waiving or releasing any Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder,
Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any
act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of
such Franchise Agreement on the part of the franchisee to be performed or observed to be promptly
performed or observed on behalf of such Borrower, to the end that the rights of said franchisee
(and/or such Borrower and/or Operating Lessee) in, to and under such Franchise Agreement shall be
kept unimpaired and free from default. Any such amounts so advanced by Lender together with
interest thereon from the date expended by Lender of the Default Rate shall be part of the
Indebtedness and Borrower shall immediately repay such amounts to Lender upon demand. Pursuant to
the terms of the applicable Subordination Attornment and Security Agreement and/or Assignment of
Management Agreement, Lender and any person designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby
granted, the right to enter upon the applicable Individual Property at any time and from time to
time for the purpose of taking any such action. If any Franchisor shall deliver to Lender a copy
of any notice sent to any Borrower and/or Operating Lessee of any default under any Franchise
Agreement, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted
to be taken by Lender in good faith, in reliance thereon.

               (d) Each Borrower shall (or shall cause the applicable Operating Lessee to) exercise each
individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of each Franchise Agreement upon demand by
Lender made at any time within ninety (90) days prior to the last

87

 

day upon which any such option may be exercised, and each Borrower hereby expressly
authorizes and appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact to exercise (or cause the applicable
Operating Lessee to exercise) any such option in the name of and upon behalf of such Borrower
should such Borrower fail to do so, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be
deemed to be coupled with an interest.

               (e) Any sums expended by Lender pursuant to this Section shall bear interest at the Default
Rate from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall be deemed to
constitute a portion of the Indebtedness, shall be secured by the lien of the Mortgage and the
other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable within two (2) Business Days after
demand by Lender therefor.

               (f) Each Borrower shall, promptly upon request of Lender, but no more than two (2) times in
any calendar year during the term of the Loan (unless (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or (ii) such request is occasioned in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction)
use its diligent best efforts to obtain and deliver (or cause to be delivered) an estoppel
certificate from each Franchisor stating that (i) each applicable Franchise Agreement is in full
force and effect and has not been modified, amended or assigned, (ii) neither such Franchisor nor
the franchisee named thereunder is in default under any of the terms, covenants or provisions of
each applicable Franchise Agreement and such Franchisor knows of no event which, but for the
passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event of default under each
applicable Franchise Agreement, (iii) neither such Franchisor nor the franchisee thereunder has
commenced any action or given or received any notice for the purpose of terminating any applicable
Franchise Agreement and (iv) all sums due and payable to such Franchisor under each applicable
Franchise Agreement have been paid in full.

               (g) Upon the termination of any Franchise Agreement, each Borrower shall (or shall cause
Operating Lessee to) promptly enter into a new Franchise Agreement with a replacement Franchisor,
which shall deliver a comfort or similar letter to and in favor of Lender, all upon terms and
conditions reasonably acceptable to Lender.

                    (Z) Upfront Remediation. Borrower shall, by the respective required completion dates
set forth in Exhibit K, perform the environmental remediation to the Property itemized on
Exhibit K hereto (the “Upfront Remediation”). Furthermore, Borrower shall
diligently perform, or cause to be performed, all other Remediation as required by and in
accordance with the terms of this Agreements.

ARTICLE 6

                    (F) Affiliate Transactions. Except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents,
enter into, or be a party to, any transaction with an Affiliate of any Borrower or Operating
Lessee, except in the ordinary course of business and on terms which are no less favorable to such

transaction with an unrelated third party, and, if the amount to be paid to the Affiliate pursuant
to the transaction or series of related transactions is greater than Fifty Thousand Dollars
($50,000.00) (determined annually on an aggregate basis) fully disclosed to Lender in advance.

                    (G) Creation of Easements. Create, or permit any Individual Property or any part
thereof to become subject to, any easement, license or restrictive covenant, other than a Permitted

which by its terms is convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for stock, shares,
shareholder, partnership or membership interests or other ownership interests in any Borrower or
Operating Lessee, unless otherwise permitted under this Agreement in connection with any Mezzanine
Loan. No Borrower or Operating Lessee shall allow to be issued or created any stock in any
Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s general partner or managing member, as applicable, other than the
stock which is outstanding or existing on the Closing Date or any security or other instrument
which by its terms is convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for any stock in such
Borrower’s general partner or managing member, as applicable.

                    (J) Assignment of Licenses and Permits. Assign or transfer any of its interest in any
Permits pertaining to any Individual Property, or assign, transfer or remove or permit any other
Person to assign, transfer or remove any records pertaining to any Individual Property without

of a commercially reasonable sum of money or for thirty (30) days after written notice from
Lender or its successors or assigns, in the case of any other default (unless otherwise
provided herein or in such other Loan Document); provided, however, that if
such non-monetary default under this subparagraph is susceptible of cure but cannot
reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period and provided further that such
Borrower shall have commenced to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period and
thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such thirty (30) day
period shall be extended for such time as is reasonably necessary for such Borrower in the
exercise of due diligence to cure such default, but in no event shall such period exceed

     Section 7.2. Remedies.

               (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or
more of the rights, powers and other remedies available to Lender against Borrowers or any Borrower
under this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgages or any of the other Loan Documents, or at law or in
equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time (including, without limitation,
the right to accelerate and declare the outstanding principal amount, unpaid interest, Default Rate
interest, Late Charges, Prepayment Premium and any other amounts owing by such Borrower to be
immediately due and payable), without notice or demand, whether or not all or any portion of the
Indebtedness shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any
foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of
the Loan Documents with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral. Any such actions taken by
Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively,
together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its discretion, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and
remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan
Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary herein, the outstanding principal
amount, unpaid interest, Default Rate interest, Late Charges, Prepayment Premium and any other
amounts owing by any Borrower shall be accelerated and immediately due and payable, without any
election by Lender upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(xii)
or Section 7.1 (xiii). Notwithstanding that this Agreement may refer to a continuing Event
of Default, and without limiting any Borrower’s right to cure a Default which may, with the passage
of time, become an Event of Default, no Borrower shall have any right pursuant to this Agreement to
cure any Event of Default unless permitted by Lender in writing.

     Section 7.3. Remedies Cumulative.

          The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not
exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against any Borrower or any
other Person pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents executed by or with respect to
any Borrower or any other Person, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights,
powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such
order as Lender may determine in Lender’s discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy,
right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or
shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from
time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of any Default or Event of Default
shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or to impair
any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. Any and all of Lender’s rights with respect to the
Collateral shall continue unimpaired, and each Borrower shall be and remain obligated in accordance
with the terms hereof, notwithstanding (i) the release or substitution of Collateral at any time,
or of any rights or interest therein or (ii) any delay, extension of time, renewal, compromise or
other indulgence granted by Lender in the event of any Default or Event of Default with respect to
the Collateral or otherwise hereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, but
subject to Section 8.14 hereof, Lender reserves the right to seek a deficiency judgment or preserve
a

94

 

deficiency claim, in connection with the foreclosure of any or all Mortgages, to the extent
necessary to foreclose on other parts of the Collateral.

     Section 7.4. Lender’s Right to Perform.

          If any Borrower fails to perform any covenant or obligation contained herein and such failure
shall continue for a period of (5) five Business Days after such Borrower’s receipt of written
notice thereof from Lender, without in any way limiting Section 7.1 hereof, Lender may, but
shall have no obligation to, itself perform, or cause performance of, such covenant or obligation,
and the expenses of Lender incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrowers to Lender
upon demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation to send notice to such
Borrower of any such failure.

ARTICLE 8

MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 8.1. Survival.

          Subject to Section 4.2, this Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations
and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the execution and delivery by Borrowers to Lender of
the Notes, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any portion of the Indebtedness
is outstanding and unpaid. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to,
such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of any such party. All
covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement contained, by or on behalf of Borrower, shall
inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of Lender. Nothing in this Agreement
or in any other Loan Document, express or implied, shall give to any Person other than the parties
and the holder(s) of the Notes and the other Loan Documents, and their legal representatives,
successors and assigns, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim hereunder.

     Section 8.2. Lender’s Discretion.

          Whenever pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Lender exercises any right,
option or election given to Lender to approve or disapprove, or consent or withhold consent, or any
arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender or is to be in Lender’s discretion, the
decision of Lender to approve or disapprove, consent or withhold consent, or to decide whether
arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory or acceptable or not acceptable to
Lender in Lender’s discretion, shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in
the sole and absolute discretion of Lender. Whenever pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document (a) the Rating Agencies are given any right to approve or disapprove, (b) confirmation is
required from the Rating Agencies that an action will not result in a downgrade or withdrawal of
the ratings in a Secondary Market Transaction or (c) any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory
to the Rating Agencies, the approval of Lender shall be substituted therefore prior to the date
that all or any portion of the

95

 

Loan is included in a REMIC, among other things, Lender’s reasonable determination of Rating
Agency criteria.

     Section 8.3. Governing Law.

               (a) The proceeds of the Note delivered pursuant hereto were disbursed from New York, which
State the parties agree has a substantial relationship to the parties and to the underlying
transaction embodied hereby, and in all respects, including, without limitation, matters of

contracts made and performed in such State and any applicable law of the United States of America.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives

this Agreement and the Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the

               (b) ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST ANY BORROWER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO

JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE COLLATERAL IS LOCATED, AND EACH BORROWER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT
MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY EACH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, AND EACH
BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY EACH COURT IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING. EACH BORROWER DOES HEREBY DESIGNATE AND APPOINT CSC NETWORKS, 500 CENTRAL AVENUE,
ALBANY, NEW YORK, 12206-2290, AS ITS AUTHORIZED AGENT TO ACCEPT AND ACKNOWLEDGE ON ITS BEHALF

     Section 8.4. Modification, Waiver in Writing.

          No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by any Borrower
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the
party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, no notice to or demand on any Borrower shall entitle such Borrower to any other or
future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

     Section 8.5. Delay Not a Waiver.

          Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance
of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege
hereunder, or under the Note, or of any other Loan Document, or any other instrument given as
security herefore, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial
exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power,
remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the
due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document, Lender
shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other
amounts due under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for
failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

     Section 8.6. Notices.

          All notices, consents, approvals and requests required or permitted hereunder or under any
other Loan Document shall be given in writing and shall be effective for all purposes if hand

          EACH BORROWER AND LENDER, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THAT THEY MAY LAWFULLY DO SO, HEREBY WAIVE

98

 

     Section 8.8. Headings.

          The 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 8.9. Assignment.

          Lender shall have the right to assign in whole or in part this Agreement and/or any of the
other Loan Documents and the obligations hereunder or thereunder to any Person and to participate
all or any portion of the Loan evidenced hereby, including without limitation, any servicer or
trustee in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction. Lender shall provide any Borrower with
written notice of any such assignment; provided, however, that such notice shall
not be a condition of Lender’s right to assign this Agreement and/or any of the Loan Documents and
the failure to deliver such notice shall not constitute a default under this Loan Agreement. At
the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer and\or trustee selected by Lender and
Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents to such servicer and\or trustee pursuant to a servicing agreement between Lender and
such servicer and\or trustee.

     Section 8.10. Severability.

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

     Section 8.11. Preferences.

          Lender shall have no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or any other
party or against or in payment of any or all of the obligations of any Borrower pursuant to this
Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive
right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by any Borrower to any portion of the
obligations of any Borrower hereunder. To the extent any Borrower makes a payment or payments to
Lender for any Borrower’s benefit, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a
trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or
equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations
hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and
effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

     Section 8.12. Waiver of Notice.

          No Borrower shall be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with
respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly
provide for the giving of notice by Lender to such Borrower and

99

 

except with respect to matters for which such Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal
Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Each Borrower hereby expressly waives the
right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents does not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender
to such Borrower.

     Section 8.13. Remedies of Borrower.

          In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents, has acted
unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement, the
Notes, any Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an
obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents, shall
be liable for any monetary damages, and each Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to
commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree
that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined
by an action seeking declaratory judgment.

     Section 8.14. Exculpation.

          Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.14 and Section 4.2 to the
contrary, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of any Borrower or Operating Lessee
to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgage or any
of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by any Borrower or Operating Lessee except that
Lender may pursue any power of sale, bring a foreclosure action, action for specific performance,
action for money judgment, or other appropriate action or proceeding (including, without
limitation, to obtain a deficiency judgment) against any or all Borrowers, or Operating Lessee or
any other Person solely for the purpose of enabling Lender to realize upon (a) any Collateral, and
(b) any Rents to the extent (x) received by any Borrower or any Manager (or any of their
affiliates), after the occurrence of an Event of Default or (y) distributed to any Borrower,
Operating Lessee or any Manager, or their respective shareholders, or partners or members, as
applicable, or affiliates during or with respect to any period for which Lender did not receive the
full amounts it was entitled to receive as prepayments of the Loan pursuant to Section
2.6(b) (all Rents covered by clauses (x) and (y) being hereinafter referred to
as the “Recourse Distributions”) and (c)) any other collateral given to Lender under the
Loan Documents ((a), (b), and (c) collectively, the “Default Collateral”);
provided, however, that any judgment in any action or proceeding shall be
enforceable only to the extent of any Default Collateral. The provisions of this Section
8.14 shall not, however, (a) impair the validity of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Loan
Documents or in any way affect or impair the Liens of any Mortgage or any of the other Loan
Documents or the right of Lender to foreclose any Mortgage following an Event of Default; (b)
impair the right of Lender to name any Person as a party defendant in any action or suit for
judicial foreclosure and sale under any Mortgage; (c) affect the validity or enforceability of the
Note, any Mortgage or the other Loan Documents; (d) impair the right of Lender to obtain the
appointment of a receiver; (e) impair the right of Lender to bring suit for and recover against any
Person any damages, losses, expenses, liabilities or costs resulting from fraud, willful
misrepresentation, waste of all or any portion of any Individual Property, or wrongful removal or
disposal of all or any portion of any Individual Property by any Person in connection with this
Agreement, the Note, any Mortgage or the other Loan Documents; (f)

100

 

impair the right of Lender to obtain the Recourse Distributions received by any Person; (g)
impair the right of Lender to bring suit for and recover against any Person with respect to any
misappropriation of security deposits or Rents collected more than one (1) month in advance; (h)
impair the right of Lender to obtain Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds due to Lender
pursuant to any Mortgage; (i) impair the right of Lender to enforce the provisions of Sections
4.1(V) or 5.1(D) through 5.1(G), inclusive of this Agreement, Section
2.8 of each Mortgage or the Environmental Indemnity even after repayment in full by any
Borrower of the Indebtedness; (j) prevent or in any way hinder Lender from exercising, or
constitute a defense, or counterclaim, or other basis for relief in respect of the exercise of, any
other remedy against any or all of the Collateral securing the Note as provided in the Loan
Documents; (k) impair the right of Lender to bring suit for and recover against any person with
respect to any misapplication of any funds (including, without limitation, insurance proceeds and
condemnation proceeds); (l) impair the right of Lender to sue for, seek or demand a deficiency
judgment against any Person solely for the purpose of foreclosing on any Collateral or any part
thereof, or realizing upon the Default Collateral, or (m) impair the right of Lender to bring suit
for and recover against any Person any damages, losses, expenses, liabilities or costs in the event
that Borrower or any Operating Lessee shall take any action of any kind or nature whatsoever,
either directly or indirectly to oppose, impede, obstruct, challenge, hinder, frustrate, enjoin or
otherwise interfere with (A) Lender’s termination of any Operating Lease with any Operating Lessee,
(B) Lender or the party acquiring any Individual Property following the occurrence of a foreclosure
or deed in lieu thereof (in full substitution of the applicable Operating Lessee) being deemed the
“Owner” under the Management Agreement, (C) the execution, delivery or effectiveness of a new
Management Agreement directly between Lender or the party acquiring any Individual Property
following a foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof and applicable Manager or (D) any payment or other
transfer by any Manager of funds which would otherwise be paid to any Operating Lessee under any
Operating Lease directly to Lender or the party acquiring any Individual Property following the
occurrence of a foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof, in each case after or as a result of any
automatic termination of the applicable Operating Lease or of Lender exercising its right to
terminate the Operating Lease, in each case pursuant to the applicable Subordination, Attornment
and Security Agreement and this Agreement, or shall, either directly or indirectly, cause or permit
any other person to take any action which, if taken by such Operating Lessee would constitute an
event described in this Section 8.14(m); provided, however, that any
deficiency judgment referred to in this Section 8.14(m) shall be enforceable only to the
extent of any of the Default Collateral. The preceding provisions of this Section 8.14
shall be inapplicable to any Person if (i) any petition for bankruptcy, reorganization or
arrangement pursuant to federal or state law against any Borrower or Operating Lessee shall be
filed by any Borrower, Operating Lessee, or any Affiliate of any Borrower or Operating Lessee, (ii)
if an involuntary bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding is commenced against any Borrower or
Operating Lessee (by a party other than Lender) but only if such Borrower has consented or
acquiesced to such proceeding or if Borrower, Operating Lessee or any Affiliate of Borrower or
Operating Lessee has acted in concert with, colluded or conspired with the party to cause the
filing
 thereof or has consented to or acquiesced thereto, (iii) if any Borrower or Operating Lessee
shall institute any proceeding for the dissolution or liquidation of any Borrower or Operating
Lessee, (iv) if any Borrower or Operating Lessee shall make an assignment for the benefit of
creditors, (v) if any Borrower or Operating Lessee shall breach any representation, warranty or
covenant in Section 4.1(C) (such that such breach was considered by a court as a factor in
the court’s finding

101

 

for a consolidation of the assets of a Borrower or Operating Lessee with the assets of another
person or entity or as a result thereof Lender suffers any material damage, cost, liability or
expense; provided, however, that in the absence of an actual consolidation, recourse may be had
against Borrower or Operating Lessee only to the extent of losses for such breach), 4.1(V),
4.1(AA), 5.1(T) (such that such breach was considered by a court as a factor in the
court’s finding for a consolidation of the assets of a Borrower or Operating Lessee with the assets
of another person or entity or as a result thereof Lender suffers any material damage, cost,
liability or expense; provided, however, that in the absence of an actual consolidation, recourse
may be had against Borrower or Operating Lessee only to the extent of losses for such breach) or
5.1(X), (v) if any Borrower or Operating Lessee allows any Transfer to occur in violation
of Section 6.1(B) hereof or otherwise fails to obtain Lender’s prior written consent to any
Transfer to the extent any consent is required in the Loan Documents, (vi) any Borrower or
Operating Lessee interferes with Lender’s exercise of any of its rights or remedies hereunder or
(vii) if any Borrower or Operating Lessee breaches any representation or warranty contained in
Section 4.1(S).

     Section 8.15. Exhibits Incorporated.

          The information set forth on the cover, heading and recitals hereof, and the Exhibits attached
hereto, are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set
forth in the body hereof.

     Section 8.16. Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses.

          Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgage and the
other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses
which are unrelated to the Loan, this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgage and the other Loan
Documents which any Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor, and no such unrelated
counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by any Borrower in any action or proceeding
brought by any such assignee upon this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgage and other Loan Documents
and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any
such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by each Borrower.

     Section 8.17. No Joint Venture or Partnership.

          Each Borrower and Lender intend that the relationship created hereunder be solely that of
borrower and lender. Nothing herein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership,
tenants-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between any Borrower and Lender nor to grant
Lender any interest in any Individual Property other than that of mortgagee or lender.

Section 8.18. Waiver of Marshalling of Assets Defense.

          To the fullest extent that each Borrower may legally do so, each Borrower waives all
rights to a marshalling of the assets of each such Borrower, and others with interests in such
Borrower, and of any Individual Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event
of foreclosure of the interests hereby created, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws

102

 

pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead
exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat,
reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of any Individual Property
for the collection of the Indebtedness without any prior or different resort for collection, or the
right of Lender or Deed of Trust Trustee to the payment of the Indebtedness in preference to every
other claimant whatsoever.

     Section 8.19. Waiver of Counterclaim.

          Each Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than compulsory
counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against Borrower by Lender or Lender’s agents.

     Section 8.20. Conflict; Construction of Documents.

          In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of
the Notes, any Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall
prevail. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by counsel in connection with
the negotiation and drafting of the Loan Documents and that the Loan Documents shall not be subject
to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same.

     Section 8.21. Brokers and Financial Advisors.

          Borrower and Lender hereby represent that they have dealt with no financial advisors, brokers,
underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement. Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and
against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or
arising from a claim by any Person, that such Person acted on behalf of any Borrower in connection
with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section shall survive the
expiration and termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Indebtedness.

     Section 8.22. Counterparts.

          This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed
and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same
instrument.

     Section 8.23. Estoppel Certificates.

          Each Borrower and Lender each hereby agree at any time and from time to time upon not less
than fifteen (15) days prior written notice by any Borrower or Lender (but no more than four (4)
times per year unless (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) such request
is occasioned in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction) to execute, acknowledge and
deliver to the party specified in such notice, a statement, in writing, certifying that this
Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the
same, as modified, is in full force and effect and stating the modifications

103

 

hereto), and stating whether or not, to the knowledge of such certifying party, any Default or
Event of Default has occurred, and, if so, specifying each such Default or Event of Default;
provided, however, that it shall be a condition precedent to Lender’s obligation to
deliver the statement pursuant to this Section, that Lender shall have received, together
with Borrower’s request for such statement, an Officer’s Certificate stating that no Default or
Event of Default exists as of the date of such certificate (or specifying such Default or Event of
Default).

     Section 8.24. Payment of Expenses.

          Borrowers shall, whether or not the Transactions are consummated, pay all Transaction Costs,
which shall include, without limitation, reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs, expenses, and
disbursements of Lender and its attorneys, local counsel, accountants and other contractors in
connection with (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and
the documents and instruments referred to therein, (ii) the creation, perfection or protection of
Lender’s Liens in the Collateral (including, without limitation, fees and expenses for title and
lien searches and filing and recording fees, intangibles taxes, personal property taxes, mortgage
recording taxes, due diligence expenses, travel expenses, and accounting firm fees, costs of the
Appraisals, Environmental Reports (and an environmental consultant), Surveys and the Engineering
Reports), (iii) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any amendment, waiver or
consent relating to any of the Loan Documents, and (iv) the preservation of rights under and
enforcement of the Loan Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein, including
any restructuring or rescheduling of the Indebtedness, to the extent expressly required hereunder.

     Section 8.25. Bankruptcy Waiver.

          Each Borrower hereby agrees that, in consideration of the recitals and mutual covenants
contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged, if any Borrower (i) files with any bankruptcy court of competent
jurisdiction or be the subject of any petition under Title 11 of the U.S. Code, as amended, (ii) is
the subject of any order for relief issued under Title 11 of the U.S. Code, as amended, (iii) files
or is the subject of any petition seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition,
readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any present or law relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief of debtors, (iv) has sought or consents to or acquiesces in
the appointment of any trustee, receiver, conservator or liquidator or (v) is the subject of any
order, judgment or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction approving a petition filed
against such party for any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation,
dissolution or similar relief under any present or future federal or state act or law relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief for debtors, the automatic stay provided by the Federal
Bankruptcy Code shall be modified and annulled as to Lender, so as to permit Lender to exercise any
and all of its rights and remedies, upon request of Lender made on notice to any Borrower and any
other party in interest but without the need of further proof or hearing. Neither Borrower nor any
Affiliate of any Borrower shall contest the enforceability of this Section.

104

 

     Section 8.26. Entire Agreement.

          This Agreement, together with the Exhibits hereto and the other Loan Documents constitutes the
entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this
Agreement, the Exhibits hereto and the other Loan Documents and supersedes all prior agreements,
understandings and negotiations between the parties.

     Section 8.27. Dissemination of Information.

          If Lender determines at any time to participate in a Secondary Market Transaction, Lender may
forward to each purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant or investor in such
securities (collectively, the “Investor”), any Rating Agency rating such securities, any
organization maintaining databases on the underwriting and performance of commercial loans,
trustee, counsel, accountant, and each prospective Investor, all documents and information which
Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Loan, any Borrower, any direct or indirect
equity owner of any Borrower, any guarantor, any indemnitor and each Individual Property, which
shall have been furnished by such Borrower any Affiliate of any Borrower, any guarantor, any
indemnitor, or any party to any Loan Document, or otherwise furnished in connection with the Loan,
as Lender in its discretion determines necessary or desirable.

     Section 8.28. Limitation of Interest.

          It is the intention of each Borrower and Lender to conform strictly to applicable usury laws.
Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious under applicable law, then,
in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, it is agreed as
follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law
that is taken, reserved, contracted for, charged or received under any Loan Document or otherwise
in connection with the Loan shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest
allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited to principal by Lender (or if the Loan
shall have been paid in full, refunded to any Borrower); and (ii) in the event that maturity of the
Loan is accelerated by reason of an election by Lender resulting from any default hereunder or
otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that
constitutes interest may never include more than the maximum amount of interest allowed by
applicable law, and any interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable
law, if any, provided for in the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be cancelled automatically as of
the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore prepaid, shall be credited to
principal (or if the principal portion of the Loan and any other amounts not constituting interest
shall have been paid in full, refunded to any Borrower.)

          In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency
exceeds the maximum amount allowed by applicable law, Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted
under applicable law (a) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (b) amortize,
prorate, allocate and spread, in equal parts, the total amount of interest throughout the entire
contemplated term of the Loan so that the interest rate is uniform throughout the entire term of
the Loan; provided, that if the Loan is paid and performed in full

105

 

prior to the end of the full contemplated term hereof, and if the interest received for the
actual period of existence thereof exceeds the maximum amount allowed by applicable law, Lender
shall refund to any Borrower the amount of such excess, and in such event, Lender shall not be
subject to any penalties provided by any laws for contracting for, charging or receiving interest
in excess of the maximum amount allowed by applicable law.

     Section 8.29. Indemnification.

          Borrowers shall indemnify and hold Lender and each other Indemnified Party harmless against
any and all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including the fees and disbursements of
outside counsel retained by any such person) or liabilities in connection with, arising out of or
as a result of the transactions and matters referred to or contemplated by this Agreement, except
to the extent that it is finally judicially determined that any such loss, claim, damage, cost,
expense or liability resulted directly and solely from the gross negligence, fraud or willful
misconduct of such Indemnified Party. If any Indemnified Party becomes involved in any action,
proceeding or investigation in connection with any transaction or matter referred to or
contemplated in this Agreement, Borrowers shall periodically reimburse any Indemnified Party upon
demand herefore in an amount equal to its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the costs
of any investigation and preparation) incurred in connection therewith to the extent such legal or
other expenses are the subject of indemnification hereunder. IT IS EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGED AND
AGREED BY EACH BORROWER THAT THE INDEMNITY (AND/OR THE RELEASE) CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION
8.29 PROTECTS LENDER FROM THE CONSEQUENCES OF LENDER’S ACTS OR OMISSIONS, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION, THE NEGLIGENT ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF LENDER TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, THAT NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL BE DEEMED TO RELIEVE THE LENDER FROM LIABILITY DUE TO
ITS FRAUD, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE.

     Section 8.30. Borrower Acknowledgments.

          Each Borrower hereby acknowledges to and agrees with Lender that (i) the scope of Lender’s
business is wide and includes, but is not limited to, financing, real estate financing, investment
in real estate and other real estate transactions which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive
with the business of such Borrower or its Affiliates and (ii) such Borrower has been represented by
competent legal counsel and such Borrower has consulted with such counsel prior to executing this
Loan Agreement and of the other Loan Documents.

     Section 8.31. Publicity.

          Lender shall have the right to issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional

AMENDED AND RESTATED CROSS-COLLATERALIZATION AND

COOPERATION AGREEMENT

     THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED CROSS-COLLATERALIZATION AND COOPERATION AGREEMENT (this
“Agreement”) is made as of the 20th day of December, 2005, by and between (i)
ASHFORD CRYSTAL CITY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, NEW CLEAR LAKE HOTEL LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, NEW
INDIANAPOLIS DOWNTOWN HOTEL LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, PALM BEACH FLORIDA HOTEL AND OFFICE BUILDING
LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, and ST. PETERSBURG FLORIDA HOTEL LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (collectively, the
“Pool 2 Borrowers”) and (ii) MERRILL LYNCH MORTGAGE LENDING, INC., in its capacity as
mortgage lender (“Lender”).

RECITALS

     A. Ashford Crystal City Limited Partnership, New Clear Lake Hotel Limited Partnership and New
Indianapolis Downtown Hotel Limited Partnership (collectively, the “Original Borrowers”)
and Lender entered into a certain Cross-Collateralization and Cooperation Agreement dated as of
October 13, 2005 (the “Original Agreement”) in connection with a certain loan from Lender
to Original Borrower described in the Original Agreement (the “Original Loan”).

     B. Lender, the Original Borrowers and the Pool 2 Borrowers have agreed to modify the terms of
the Original Loan to, among other things, cause the Original Borrowers to assign to the Pool 2
Borrowers, and the Pool 2 Borrowers to assume from the Original Borrowers, all rights and
obligations of the Original Borrowers in and to the Original Loan, as modified.

     C. As a condition to modifying the terms of the Original Loan, Lender has required that the
Pool 2 Borrowers and the Original Borrowers enter into this Agreement with Lender to amend and
restate the terms of the Original Agreement in their entirety.

     D. The Pool 2 Borrowers, under that certain Amended and Restated Promissory Note of even date
herewith given to Lender (“Note 2”), are indebted to Lender in the original principal sum
of $115,645,000 (“Loan 2”) as governed by that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
of even date herewith between the Original Borrowers, the Pool 2 Borrowers and Lender (together
with all extensions, renewals, modifications, substitutions and amendments thereof, “Loan
Agreement 2”)

     E. The Borrowers identified on Schedule 1 as the “Pool 3 Borrowers” (collectively, the
“Pool 3 Borrowers”), under that certain Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated as of
October 13, 2005 given to Lender (“Note 3”), are indebted to Lender in the original
principal sum of $95,905,000 (“Loan 3”) as governed by that certain Amended and Restated
Loan Agreement dated as of October 13, 2005 between, inter alia, the Pool 3 Borrowers and Lender
(together with all extensions, renewals, modifications, substitutions and amendments thereof,
“Loan Agreement 3”).

 

 

     F. The Borrowers identified on Schedule 1 as the “Pool 7 Borrowers” (collectively, the
“Pool 7 Borrowers”, and together with Pool 2 Borrowers and Pool 3 Borrowers, collectively,
the “Borrowers”), under that certain Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated as of
October 13, 2005 given to Lender (“Note 7”, and together with Note 2 and Note 3,
collectively, the “Notes”), are indebted to Lender in the original principal sum of
$83,075,000 (“Loan 7”, and together with Loan 2 and Loan 3, collectively, the
“Loans”) as governed by that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of
October 13, 2005 between, inter alia, the Pool 7 Borrowers and Lender (together with all
extensions, renewals, modifications, substitutions and amendments thereof, “Loan Agreement
7”, and together with Loan Agreement 1, Loan Agreement 2 and Loan Agreement 3, collectively,
the “Loan Agreements”).

     G. Loan 2, Loan 3 and Loan 7 are secured, in part, by Mortgages (as defined in the Loan
Agreements) on the Properties in the respective pools of Properties identified on Schedule
2 (each, a “Pool”, and collectively, the “Pools”). Each of such Properties is
referred to herein as a “Property” and, collectively, as the “Properties”. The
Properties in each Pool are referred to, respectively, as the “Pool 2 Properties”,
“Pool 3 Properties” and “Pools 7 Properties”.

     H. As an inducement to the Lender to enter into Loan Agreement 2, the Borrowers have agreed to
amend and restate the Original Agreement in order to modify the terms of the Original Agreement.

AGREEMENT

     For ten ($10) dollars and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of
which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     Section 1. Cross Collateralization Within Pool; Contribution.

               (a) Each Pool 2 Borrower acknowledges that Lender is making Loan 2 to the Pool 2 Borrowers
upon the security of its collective interest in the Pool 2 Properties and in reliance upon the
aggregate of the Pool 2 Properties taken together being of greater value as collateral security
than the sum of each Pool 2 Property taken separately. Each Pool 2 Borrower agrees that each
Mortgage of a Pool 2 Property is and will be cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with each
other Mortgage of a Pool 2 Property so that (i) an Event of Default which continues beyond the
expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods under any of such Mortgages shall constitute
an Event of Default under each of the other such Mortgages securing the related Note; (ii) an Event
of Default which continues beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods under
the related Loan Agreement or this Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under each such
Mortgage; (iii) each such Mortgage shall constitute security for the related Note as if a single
blanket lien were placed on all of the Pool 2 Properties as security for Note 2; and (iv) such
cross-collateralization shall in no event be deemed to constitute a fraudulent conveyance.

               (b) Without limitation to any other right or remedy provided to Lender in this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents, each Pool 2 Borrower covenants and

2

 

agrees that (i) Lender shall have the right to pursue all of its rights and remedies in one
proceeding, or separately and independently in separate proceedings which it, as Lender, in its
sole and absolute discretion, shall determine from time to time, (ii) Lender is not required to
either marshall assets, sell any or all of the Collateral in any inverse order or alienation, or be
subjected to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, (iii) the exercise by Lender
of any remedies against any of the Collateral will not impede Lender from subsequently or
simultaneously exercising remedies against any other Collateral, (iv) all Liens and other rights,
remedies and privileges provided to Lender in this Agreement and/or any other Loan Documents
otherwise shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies
against the Collateral and all the Collateral has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized
upon and (v) each Pool 2 Property and all Collateral as defined in Loan Agreement 2 shall be
security for the performance of all each Pool 2 Borrower’s obligations hereunder and under each of
the other Loan Documents.

               (c) As a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each Pool 2 Borrower will
benefit, directly and indirectly, from the obligation of each other Pool 2 Borrower to pay the
related Indebtedness and perform its obligations hereunder and under the other related Loan
Documents and in consideration therefore each Pool 2 Borrower desires to enter into an allocation
and contribution agreement among themselves as set forth in this Section 1(c) to allocate
such benefits among themselves and to provide a fair and equitable agreement to make contributions
among each Pool 2 Borrower in the event any payment is made by any individual Pool 2 Borrower under
the Loan Documents to Lender (such payment being referred to herein as a “Contribution”,
and for purposes of this Section, includes any exercise of recourse by Lender against any
Collateral of a Pool 2 Borrower and application of proceeds of such Collateral in satisfaction of
such Borrower’s obligations, to Lender under the Loan Documents).

               (i) Each Pool 2 Borrower shall be liable under the related Loan Documents with respect
to the related Indebtedness only for such total maximum amount (if any) that would not
render its Indebtedness under the related Loan Agreement or under any of the Loan Documents
subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any comparable
provisions of any state law.

               (ii) In order to provide for a fair and equitable contribution among Pool 2 Borrowers
in the event that any Contribution is made by an individual Pool 2 Borrower (a “Funding
Borrower”), such Funding Borrower shall be entitled to a reimbursement Contribution
(“Reimbursement Contribution”) from all other Pool 2 Borrowers for all payments,
damages and expenses incurred by that Funding Borrower in discharging any of the
Indebtedness, in the manner and to the extent set forth in this Section.

               (iii) For purposes hereof, the “Benefit Amount” of any individual Pool 2
Borrower as of any date of determination shall be the net value of the benefits to such
Borrower from extensions of credit made by Lender to (A) such Borrower and (B) to the other
Pool 2 Borrowers under the related Loan Documents.

3

 

               (iv) Each Pool 2 Borrower shall be liable to a Funding Borrower in an amount equal to
the (A) ratio of the Benefit Amount of such Borrower to the total amount of related
Indebtedness, multiplied by (B) the amount of such Indebtedness paid by such Funding
Borrower.

               (v) In the event that at any time there exists more than one Funding Borrower with
respect to any Contribution (in any such case, the “Applicable Contribution”), then
Reimbursement Contributions from other Pool 2 Borrowers pursuant hereto shall be allocated
among such Funding Borrowers in proportion to the total amount of the Contribution made for
or on account of the other Pool 2 Borrowers by each such Funding Borrower pursuant to the
Applicable Contribution. In the event that at any time any Pool 2 Borrower pays an amount
hereunder in excess of the amount calculated pursuant to this Section 1 above, that
Borrower shall be deemed to be a Funding Borrower to the extent of such excess and shall be
entitled to a Reimbursement Contribution from the other Pool 2 Borrowers in accordance with
the provisions of this Section.

               (vi) Each Pool 2 Borrower acknowledges that the right to Reimbursement Contribution
hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of such Borrower to which such Reimbursement
Contribution is owing.

               (vii) No Reimbursement Contribution payments payable by a Pool 2 Borrower pursuant to
the terms of this Section 1 shall be paid until all amounts then due and payable by
all Pool 2 Borrowers to Lender, pursuant to the terms of the related Loan Documents, are
paid in full in cash. Nothing contained in this Section 1 shall limit or affect in
any way the Indebtedness of any Pool 2 Borrower to Lender under the Note or any other Loan
Documents.

               (viii) Each Pool 2 Borrower waives:

                    (A) any right to require Lender to proceed against any other Borrower or any other person or
to proceed against or exhaust any security held by Lender at any time or to pursue any other remedy
in Lender’s power before proceeding against Borrower;

                    (B) any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other Borrower, any
guarantor of any other person or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of any
other Borrower or any guarantor from any cause other than full payment of all sums payable under
the Notes, this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents;

                    (C) any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or
agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any other Borrower or any principal of any other
Borrower or any defect in the formation of any other Borrower or any principal of any other
Borrower;

4

 

                    (D) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a
surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects more burdensome than that of a
principal;

                    (E) any defense based upon any failure by Lender to obtain collateral for the Indebtedness or
failure by Lender to perfect a lien on any Collateral;

                    (F) presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind;

                    (G) any defense based upon any failure of Lender to give notice of sale or other disposition
of any collateral to any other Borrower or to any other person or entity or any defect in any
notice that may be given in connection with any sale or disposition of any Collateral;

                    (H) any defense based upon any failure of Lender to comply with applicable laws in connection
with the sale or other disposition of any Collateral, including any failure of Lender to conduct a
commercially reasonable sale or other disposition of any Collateral;

                    (I) any defense based upon any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Federal
Bankruptcy Code;

                    (J) any defense based upon any agreement or stipulation entered into by Lender with respect to
the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy proceeding;

                    (K) any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364
of the Federal Bankruptcy Code;

                    (L) any defense based upon the avoidance of any security interest in favor of Lender for any
reason;

                    (M) any defense based upon any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement,
readjustment of debt, liquidation or dissolution proceeding, including any discharge of, or bar or
stay against collecting, all or any of the obligations evidenced by the Notes or owing under any of
the Loan Documents;

                    (N) any defense or benefit based upon such Borrower’s, or any other party’s, resignation of
the portion of any obligation secured by the Mortgages to be satisfied by any payment from any
other Borrower or any such party;

                    (O) all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender even though the
election of remedies, such as non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for the Loan or any
other amounts owing under the Loan Documents, has destroyed Borrower’s rights of subrogation and
reimbursement against any other Borrower;

5

 

                    (P) all rights and defenses that such Borrower may have because any Indebtedness is secured by
real property. This means, among other things: (1) Lender may collect from such Borrower without
first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any other Borrower, (2) if
Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any other Borrower, (I) the amount of
the Indebtedness may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the
foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, (II) Lender may collect
from such Borrower even if any other Borrower, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has
destroyed any right such Borrower may have to collect from any other Borrower. This is an
unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses such Borrower may have because any
of the Indebtedness is secured by real property; and

                    (Q) except as may be expressly and specifically permitted herein, any claim or other right
which such Borrower might now have or hereafter acquire against any other Borrower or any other
person that arises from the existence or performance of any obligations under the Notes, this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including any of the following: (i) any right of
subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, or indemnification; or (ii) any right to
participate in any claim or remedy of Lender against any other Borrower or any collateral security
therefore, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute
or common law.

     Section 2. Cross-Collateralization Across Pools; Contribution; Release of
Cross-Collateralization.

               (a) Until repayment of the Indebtedness under each Loan Agreement and satisfaction of all
obligations under each Loan Agreement, each Pool 2 Borrower acknowledges and agrees (subject to
Lender’s election(s) at Lender’s sole discretion from time to time or otherwise pursuant to
Section 2(g) below): (i) that each of the Pool 2 Properties shall secure not only Loan 2
but also all of the other Loans, and that the Liens of the related Loan Documents shall constitute
Liens securing not only Loan 2 but also all of the other Loans; and (ii) that Lender would not
make the Loans to the Pool 2 Borrowers unless the Pool 2 Borrowers granted liens on the Pool 2
Properties to secure the payment of each of the Loans.

               (b) Until the date that all of the Loans shall have been paid and satisfied in full, the Pool
2 Borrowers (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to the Loans and (ii) waive any
right to enforce any remedy which Lender now has or may hereafter have against the Borrowers, any
endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Loans or any other individual or entity, and
the Pool 2 Borrowers waive any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or
collateral given to Lender to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of the Loans or
any other liability of any of the other Borrowers to Lender. Should any Pool 2 Borrower have the
right, notwithstanding the foregoing, to exercise its subrogation rights, each Pool 2 Borrower
hereby expressly and irrevocably (1) subordinates any and all rights at law or in equity to
subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off that such
Borrower may have to the payment in full in cash of the Loans and (2) waives

6

 

any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the
Loans are paid in full in cash. Each Pool 2 Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this
subordination is intended to benefit Lender and shall not limit or otherwise affect any Borrower’s
liability hereunder or the enforceability of any of the Loan Agreements or the Loan Documents.

               (c) Each Pool 2 Borrower agrees that any and all claims of such Borrower against any Borrowers
in any of the other Pools or any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Loans
(collectively, the “Crossed Obligors”) with respect to any obligations, liabilities or
indebtedness now or hereafter owing by the Crossed Obligors, or any of them, to such Borrower, or
otherwise existing or claimed to be owed or to exist on the part of any of the Crossed Obligors, or
against any of their respective properties (collectively, the “Crossed Party Obligations”)
shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of
all of the Loans. Notwithstanding any right of any Borrower to ask, demand, sue for, take or
receive any payment from any of the Crossed Obligors, all rights, liens and security interests of
each Borrower, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in and to any assets of any
of the Crossed Obligors shall be and are subordinated to the rights of Lender in those assets under
the Loan Documents relating to each Loan or otherwise, and no Borrower shall, until the date that
all of the Loans shall have been paid and satisfied in full, (i) assert, collect, sue upon, or
enforce all or any part of the Crossed Party Obligations; (ii) commence or join with any other
creditors of any of the Crossed Obligors in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership
or insolvency proceeding against any of the Crossed Obligors; (iii) take, accept, ask for, sue
for, receive, set off or demand any payments upon the Crossed Party Obligations; or (iv) take,
accept, ask for, sue for, receive, demand or allow to be created liens, security interests,
mortgages, deeds of trust or pledges of or with respect to any of the assets of any of the Crossed
Obligors in favor of or for the benefit of such Borrower.

               (d) If all or any part of the assets of any of the Crossed Obligors, or the proceeds thereof,
are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of such Crossed Obligor,
whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation,
bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action
or proceeding, or if the business of any such Crossed Obligor is dissolved or if substantially all
of the assets of any such Crossed Obligor are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being
herein referred to as an “Crossed Obligor Insolvency Event”), any payment or distribution
of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or
deliverable to any Pool 2 Borrower upon or with respect to any Crossed Party Obligations shall be
paid or delivered directly to the Lender for application on the Loans, due or to become due, until
the Loans shall have been fully paid and satisfied (in cash). Should any payment, distribution,
security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by any Pool 2 Borrower upon or with respect
to the Crossed Party Obligations after any Crossed Obligor Insolvency Event and prior to the
payment in full and satisfaction of all of the Loans, such Borrower shall receive and hold the same
in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of Lender and shall forthwith deliver the same to Lender in
precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of such Borrower where
necessary), for application to any of the Loans, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same
shall be held in trust by such Borrower as the property of

7

 

Lender. If such Borrower fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to Lender, Lender
or any of its officers or employees is irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Pool 2
Borrower agrees that until the Loans have been paid in full (in cash) and satisfied, no Pool 2
Borrower will assign or transfer to any individual or entity (other than Lender) any claim such
Borrower has or may have against any Crossed Obligor.

               (e) Subject to the provisions of Section 2(g), to the extent that any collection upon
any of the Loans is made by Lender from one of the Borrowers or the Properties in a Pool other than
Pool 2 or other assets of the Borrowers other than the Pool 2 Borrowers (a “Crossed Loans
Collection”) which, taking into account all other Crossed Loans Collections then previously or
concurrently made by such Borrower, exceeds the amount which otherwise would have been collected
from such Borrower if each Borrower had paid the portion of the Loans satisfied by such Crossed
Loans Collection in the same proportion as such Borrower’s Allocable Amount (as defined below) (as
determined immediately prior to such Crossed Loans Collection) bore to the aggregate Allocable
Amounts of each Borrower as determined immediately prior to the making of such Crossed Loans
Collection, then, following payment in full in cash of the Loans, such Borrower shall be entitled
to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other
Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in
effect immediately prior to such Crossed Loans Collection. As of any date of determination, the
“Allocable Amount” of any Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim which
could then be recovered from such Borrower under the related Loan Documents without rendering such
claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any
applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar
statute or common law. The foregoing provision shall be for the benefit of each of the Borrowers
and Lender, but shall be subject to modification as provided in Section 2(g) below and to
amendment by agreement of the Borrowers and Lender. This Section 2(e) is intended only to
define the relative rights of the Borrowers, and nothing set forth in this Section 2(e) is
intended to or shall impair the liens and security interests of any of the Loan Agreements or the
related Loan Documents or the obligations of the Borrowers thereunder. Each Pool 2 Borrower
acknowledges that the rights of contribution and indemnification under this Section 2(e)
constitute assets of the Borrowers to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

               (f) Each Pool 2 Borrower hereby consents and agrees to each of the following, and agrees that
such Borrower’s obligations under its Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Liens
created under its Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents securing the Loans shall not be
released, diminished, impaired, reduced or adversely affected by any of the following, and waives
any common law, equitable, statutory or other rights (including without limitation rights to
notice) that such Borrower might otherwise have as a result of or in connection with any of the
following:

               (ix) Any renewal, extension, increase, modification, alteration or rearrangement of all
or any part of the Loans, the Loan Documents, or other document,

8

 

instrument, contract or understanding between the Borrowers and Lender, or any other
parties, pertaining to the Loans or any failure of Lender to notify such Borrower of any
such action.

               (x) Any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance or compromise that might be granted or
given by Lender to the Borrowers.

               (xi) The insolvency, bankruptcy, arrangement, adjustment, composition, liquidation,
disability, dissolution or lack of power of any of the Borrowers or any other party at any
time liable for the payment of all or part of the Loans; or any dissolution of any of the
Borrowers, or any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of any of the
Borrowers, or any changes in the shareholders, partners or members of any of the Borrowers;
or any reorganization of any of the Borrowers.

               (xii) The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of all or any part of the Loans,
or any document or agreement executed in connection therewith, for any reason whatsoever,
including without limitation the fact that (A) the Loans, or any part thereof, exceeds the
amount permitted by law, (B) the act of creating the Loans or any part thereof is ultra
vires, (C) the officers or representatives executing the Loan Documents or otherwise
creating the Loans acted in excess of their authority, (D) the Loans violate applicable
usury laws, (E) the Borrowers have valid defenses, claims or offsets (whether at law, in
equity or by agreement) which render the Loans wholly or partially uncollectible from the
Borrowers, (F) the creation, performance or repayment of the Loans (or the execution,
delivery and performance of any document or instrument representing part of the Loans or
executed in connection with the Crossed Loans, or given to secure the repayment of the
Loans) is illegal, uncollectible or unenforceable, or (G) any of the Loan Documents have
been forged or otherwise are irregular or not genuine or authentic, it being agreed that
each Borrower shall remain liable hereon regardless of whether any other Borrower or any
other person be found not liable on the Loans or any part thereof for any reason.

               (xiii) Any full or partial release of the liability of the Borrowers on the Loans, or
any part thereof, or of any co-guarantors, or any other person or entity now or hereafter
liable, whether directly or indirectly, jointly, severally, or jointly and severally, to
pay, perform, guarantee or assure the payment of the Loans, or any part thereof, it being
recognized, acknowledged and agreed by each Borrower that such Borrower has not been induced
to enter into its Loan Agreement, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents on the basis of
a contemplation, belief, understanding or agreement that other parties will be liable to pay
or perform the Loan or such Borrower’s obligations under its Loan Agreement, this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents, or that Lender will look to other parties to pay or perform the
Loans.

               (xiv) The taking or accepting of any other security, collateral or guaranty, or other
assurance of payment, for all or any part of the Loans.

9

 

               (xv) Any release, surrender, exchange, subordination, deterioration, waste, loss or
impairment (including without limitation negligent, willful, unreasonable or unjustifiable
impairment) of any collateral, property or security, at any time existing in connection
with, or assuring or securing payment of, all or any part of the Loans.

               (xvi) The failure of or refusal of Lender or any other party acting on behalf of Lender
to exercise diligence or reasonable care in the preservation, protection, enforcement, sale
or other handling or treatment of all or any part of such collateral, property or security,
including but not limited to any neglect, delay, omission, failure or refusal of Lender (A)
to take or prosecute any action for the collection of any of the Loans, (B) to foreclose, or
initiate any action to foreclose, or, once commenced, prosecute to completion any action to
foreclose upon any security therefor, or (C) to take or prosecute any action in connection
with any instrument or agreement evidencing or securing all or any part of the Loans.

               (xvii) The fact that any collateral, security, security interest or lien contemplated
or intended to be given, created or granted as security for the repayment of the Loans, or
any part thereof, shall not be properly perfected or created, or shall prove to be
unenforceable or subordinate to any other security interest or lien, it being recognized and
agreed by each Borrower that it is not entering into this Loan Agreement in reliance on, or
in contemplation of the benefits of, the validity, enforceability, collectibility or value
of any of the collateral for the Loans.

               (xviii) Any payment by any of the Borrowers to Lender is held to constitute a
preference under bankruptcy laws, or for any reason Lender is required to refund such
payment or pay such amount to any of the Borrowers or someone else.

               (xix) Any other action taken or omitted to be taken with respect to any of the Loan
Documents, the Loans, or the security and collateral therefor.

               (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or in any of the Loan
Agreements, but subject to Section 4 of this Agreement, (i) upon Lender’s delivery to Borrowers of
written notice, sent at Lender’s sole option and in its sole discretion, from time to time (one or
more times) stating that any Loan Agreement, the related Mortgages and the other related Loan
Documents shall no longer secure one or more (at Lender’s sole election) of the other Loans (each a
“Cross Release Notice”), or (ii) except as set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement, upon
Lender’s sale of one or more Pools in a Secondary Market Transaction (including a securitization),
or (iii) upon a sale by Borrowers of one or more Pools pursuant to and in accordance with the terms
of the related Loan Agreement(s), (x) the applicable Loan Agreement (as specified in the Cross
Release Notice or, in the case of a Secondary Market Transaction or a sale of one or more Pools by
the applicable Borrowers, relating to the Pool or Pools being sold) and the other Loan Documents
relating thereto shall, automatically and without any further notice or other action by Lender or
Borrowers, no longer secure any of the Loans made pursuant to the other Loan Agreements (any such
Loan, an “Excluded Loan”, and,

10

 

collectively, the “Excluded Loan(s)”; each Borrower which is the borrower with respect
to an Excluded Loan is herein referred to as an “Excluded Borrower”, and the Loan
Agreements, Mortgages and other Loan Documents executed and delivered by the Excluded Borrowers
with respect to any Excluded Loan are herein referred to as the “Excluded Loan Agreements”,
“Excluded Mortgages” and “Excluded Loan Documents”, respectively, and each Property
encumbered by the Excluded Loan Documents is herein referred to as an “Excluded Property”),
and the Excluded Loan Agreements and the other Loan Documents relating thereto shall, automatically
and without any further notice or other action by Lender or Borrowers, no longer secure the Loan
made pursuant to the Loan Agreement specified in the Cross Release Notice or, in the case of a
Secondary Market Transaction or a sale of one or more Pools by the applicable Borrowers, relating
to a Pool or Pools being sold, (y) with respect to such Loan Agreement and the related Borrowers,
the provisions of Section 2(e) of this Agreement shall not apply to any Crossed Loans
Collection from any Excluded Borrower or its Excluded Property and such Borrowers shall have no
obligation or liability on account thereof, and (z) with respect to such Loan Agreement and the
related Borrowers, such Borrowers shall no longer be beneficiaries of the covenants and agreements
set forth in Section 2(e) with respect to any Excluded Loan Agreement, and such Borrowers
shall have no rights or claims on account of any contribution or indemnification obligations of any
Excluded Borrower under Section 2(e) with respect to Excluded Loan Agreement. In addition
to and without limiting the foregoing, the Pool 2 Borrowers hereby agree to fully cooperate with
Lender, if Lender is considering the termination of the cross collateralization and cross default
of any Loan and Loan Documents with any of the other Loans, including, but not limited to (I)
amending this Agreement, any Loan Agreement and any other Loan Documents as may be reasonably
required by Lender, and reasonably approved by the applicable Borrowers, to effectuate such
termination of the cross collateralization and cross default provisions thereof, and (II) updating
and/or endorsing the title insurance policies (at Lender’s cost as to additional premium charges,
if any) to reflect the continuation of the first priority lien of any Loan Agreement.

          (h) In the event any Loan is repaid or defeased in full in accordance with the provisions of
the related Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then provided no Event of Default then
exists under the related Loan Agreement, and no “Event of Default” exists under any of the other
Loan Agreements (other than Excluded Loan Agreements) or the Loan Documents relating thereto, the
cross-collateralization and cross-default of such repaid or defeased Loan and the Loan Documents
relating thereto with the other Loans, and vice versa, shall terminate and all of such other Loans
shall be deemed Excluded Loans with respect to the repaid or defeased Loan and the provisions of
Section 2(g) above shall become automatically applicable with respect thereto.

     Section 3. Adjustment of Loans; Loan Modification.

          (a) Lender shall have the right in its sole discretion, at any time prior to the final
Start-Up Day of the last of the Loans to be securitized, to cause any of the following to occur
(each, a “Loan Modification”) with respect to any of the Pools:

11

 

               (i) separately adjust the principal amount and applicable interest rates of any of the
Loans, provided that (A) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans immediately after such
adjustment shall equal the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans immediately
prior to such adjustment, (B) the weighted average interest rate of the Loans immediately
after such adjustment shall equal the weighted average interest rate which was applicable to
the Loans immediately prior to such adjustment, (C) the aggregate debt service payments on
the Loans immediately after such adjustment shall equal the aggregate debt service payments
which were due under the Loans immediately prior to such adjustment, and (D) the other
material terms and provisions of each of the Loans shall remain unchanged and none of the
foregoing adjustments shall increase the obligations or reduce the rights of the Borrowers
in any material respect; and/or

               (ii) cause any of the Properties in any one or more of the Pools to become Collateral
for any other Pool.

(b) Any Loan Modification shall be subject to the following:

               (i) If Lender elects to increase the principal amount of any of the Loans and decrease
the amount of any of the other Loans, the applicable Borrowers (whose Loans are to be
increased) shall distribute to the applicable Borrowers (whose Loans are to be decreased)
such additional loan proceeds to be applied to repay, dollar for dollar, the applicable
Notes, and the Lender under the applicable Notes will accept such prepayment without
penalty, premium or additional costs to the Borrowers (except as provided herein).

               (ii) The Borrowers shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in connection
with any Loan Modification including, without limitation (x) execution and delivery of such
documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender and reasonably approved by Borrower in
connection therewith (including amended and restated notes, amended and restated loan
agreements, replacement Mortgages, replacement Assignments of Leases), and (y) transfers of
one or more Properties among the Borrowers, to the extent required to comply with the terms
of this Section.

          (c) At Lender’s request, in connection with any Loan Modification the Borrowers shall deliver
to Lender replacement opinion letters in form and substance similar to the opinion letters
delivered on the Closing Date addressed to any subsequent holders of any of the Loans or any
interest therein (including, without limitation, each trustee holding any of the Loans ) with
respect to any opinion letter delivered in connection with the Loans.

Section 4. Concurrently Securitized Pools; Restrictions on Permitted Transfer.

          (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including, without limitation Section 2(g)
hereof) or any Loan Agreement or other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Pool 2 Borrowers agree

same transaction and (in addition to satisfying all other requirements in the related Loan
Agreements) such purchaser assumes all Loans comprising the Concurrently Securitized Pools.

          (c) With respect to Concurrently Securitized Pools, notwithstanding anything in any Loan
Agreement or other Loan Documents to the contrary, an Event of Default under any Loan that is a

comprise the Concurrently Securitized Pools are prepaid in full simultaneously and together in
accordance with Section 2.6(a) of each related Loan Agreement.

          (e) With respect to Concurrently Securitized Pools, notwithstanding anything in any Loan

enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable laws of the United
States of America.

     Section 8. No Oral Change. This Agreement, and any provisions hereof, may not be
modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or
failure to act on the part of the Borrowers or Lender, but only by an agreement in writing signed
by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change,
discharge or termination is sought.

     Section 9. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the Borrowers and Lender and their respective successors and assigns forever.

limiting, in any way, the scope or intent of the provisions hereof.

     Section 12. Duplicate Originals, Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of duplicate originals and each duplicate original shall be deemed to be an original. This
Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed an
original instrument and all of which together shall constitute a single Agreement. The failure of
any party hereto to execute this Agreement, or any counterpart hereof, shall not relieve the other
signatories from their obligations hereunder.

     Section 13. Costs and Expenses. Notwithstanding anything herein, in any Loan
Agreement or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, in connection with any “uncrossing” of
Loans pursuant to Section 2(g) of this Agreement, any Loan Modification (as defined herein), and
any transaction described in Section 2.13 of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan
Agreements, Lender shall be responsible for all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses
incurred by the Borrowers (in the aggregate under this Agreement, each of the other similar
agreements referenced in Section 14, and each of the other Loan Agreements) in connection with
complying with their obligations set forth in this Agreement and Section 2.13 of the Loan Agreement
and the other Loan Agreements (including, costs and expenses for outside counsel fees, mortgage
recording fees and taxes, required endorsements, if any, to the Title Policies, any costs and
expenses of the Title Company, and any transfer costs in connection with the Properties, but
excluding internal costs and expenses of any Borrower), except that Borrowers shall be responsible
for such costs and expenses in connection with any of the foregoing up to an

14

 

amount equal to $25,000 in the aggregate during the term of the Loan and the other Loans, and
Lender shall be responsible and pay and/or reimburse Borrower for any such costs and expenses in
excess of $25,000 in the aggregate during the term of the Loan and the other Loans.

     Section 14. Similar Agreements by other Borrowers. The Borrowers in each Pool have
entered into Cross-Collateralization and Cooperation Agreements or Amended and Restated
Cross-Collateralization and Cooperation Agreements, as applicable, dated as of even date herewith
with Lender, which agreements are identical in form and substance to this Agreement, and under
which the Borrowers in each Pool have agreed to be bound by terms and provisions identical in
substance to the agreements made by the Pool 2 Borrowers herein.
