Exhibit 10.41

FIFTH AMENDMENT TO PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT 
AND ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS
THIS FIFTH AMENDMENT TO PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT AND ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS (this “Fifth Amendment”) is made as of the 30th day of April, 2012, by and between AGL/SLC MCEWEN NO. 2, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), and KBSIII 1550 WEST MCEWEN DRIVE, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Purchaser”), successor-in-interest to KBS CAPITAL ADVISORS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Original Purchaser”).  In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
RECITALS
A.    Seller and Original Purchaser are parties to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement and Escrow Instructions dated as of February 21, 2012 (the “Original Purchase Agreement”).  All initially-capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
B.    Original Purchaser and Seller entered into that certain First Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement and Escrow Instructions dated as of March 13, 2012 (the “First Amendment”).
C.    Original Purchaser and Seller entered into that certain Second Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement and Escrow Instructions dated as of March 15, 2012 (the “Second Amendment”).
D.    Original Purchaser and Seller entered into that certain Third Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement and Escrow Instructions dated as of March 16, 2012 (the “Third Amendment”).
E.    The Purchase Agreement was assigned to Purchaser pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption of Purchase Agreement dated March 16, 2012, by and between Original Purchaser, as assignor, and Purchaser, as assignee. 
F.    Purchaser and Seller entered into that certain Fourth Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement and Escrow Instructions dated as of March 19, 2012 (the “Fourth Amendment”); the Original Purchase Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Third Amendment and the Fourth Amendment is referred to herein as the “Purchase Agreement”).
G.    Seller and Purchaser have agreed to modify the terms of the Purchase Agreement as set forth in this Fifth Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intended to be legally bound, Seller and Purchaser agree as follows:

1.Recitals.  The Recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated herein by reference as if the same were fully set forth herein.
2.    HVAC Alarm Repair.  In Section 12(a)(i) of the Fourth Amendment, Purchaser agreed, as a condition of Closing, to undertake HVAC Corrective Actions to resolve intermittent alarms from the Trane vertical self-contained heating, cooling and air conditioning units located in the Building’s mechanical room so that such units would operate within manufacturers specifications.  As of the Closing Date, the HVAC Corrective Actions will not be complete, and the parties desire to proceed with Closing according to the terms of the Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that Purchaser and Seller agree that Seller will deposit $14,000.00 (the “HVAC Alarm Escrow Funds”) into escrow at Closing to be administered by the Title Company in accordance with the terms of an escrow agreement, the form of which shall be reasonably agreed to by Purchaser and Seller on or before Closing.
3.    Permitted Exceptions.  
(a)    Background.  Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that Seller made tenant improvement allowances available to two current tenants in the Building: (i) Hot Yoga pursuant to the Hot Yoga Lease (as those terms are defined in Section 7.1(a) of the Original Purchase Agreement, and (ii) Espaces, Inc., a Tennessee Corporation (“Espaces”), pursuant to that certain Lease Agreement between Seller and Espaces dated September 10, 2011 (the “Espaces Lease”).  Seller agreed to provide tenant improvement allowances pursuant to the Hot Yoga Lease (the “Hot Yoga Allowance”) and the Espaces Lease (the “Espaces Allowance”).  Portions of the Hot Yoga Allowance and the Espaces Allowance remain unpaid by Seller to Hot Yoga and Espaces, and each tenant’s contractors performing the improvements have not issued final unconditional lien waivers for all of the work to be performed under the respective leases.  Seller has agreed to provide Purchaser with credits for the unused amounts of the Hot Yoga Allowance and the Espaces Allowance at Closing (the “Tenant Finish Credits”).
(b)    Permitted Exceptions.  Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that the definitions of “Permitted Exceptions” and “Required Cure Items”, as set forth in Section 3.2(a) of the Original Purchase Agreement, are hereby amended such that the Title Policy may have an exception for potential mechanics’ liens arising solely from the tenant improvement work to be performed pursuant to the Hot Yoga Lease and the Espaces Lease, which exception will be limited strictly to the amount of the Tenant Finish Credits (the “Limited Mechanics’ Lien Exception”).
(c)    No Deed Claim.  Purchaser acknowledges that, notwithstanding that the Limited Mechanics’ Lien Exception is not listed on the exceptions to Seller’s warranty of title in the Deed, Purchaser waives any warranty claim against Seller under the Deed for the Limited Mechanics’ Lien Exception, to the extent of the Tenant Finish Credits.  The foregoing will survive Closing and delivery of the Deed.
4.    Effectiveness of Agreement.  Except as modified by this Fifth Amendment, all the terms of the Purchase Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

2

5.    Counterparts.  This Fifth Amendment may be executed in counterparts, and all counterparts together shall be construed as one document.
6.    Telecopied Signatures.  A counterpart of this Fifth Amendment that is signed by one party to this Fifth Amendment and telecopied or emailed to the other party to this Fifth Amendment or its counsel (i) shall have the same effect as an original signed counterpart of this Fifth Amendment, and (ii) shall be conclusive proof, admissible in judicial proceedings, of such party’s execution of this Fifth Amendment.
7.    Successors and Assigns.  All of the terms and conditions of this Fifth Amendment shall apply to benefit and bind the successors and assigns of the respective parties.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Seller and Purchaser have entered into this Fifth Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement and Escrow Instructions as of the date first above stated.

LOAN AGREEMENT

THIS LOAN AGREEMENT is made and entered into as of April 30, 2012, by and between (i) KBSIII DOMAIN GATEWAY, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, KBSIII LAS CIMAS IV, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and KBSIII 1550 WEST MCEWEN DRIVE, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (collectively, "Initial Borrowers"), (ii) U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, as agent, lead arranger and book manager (in such capacity, "Agent"), and (iii) U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, as a Lender, and any other bank that becomes a "Lender" after the Closing Date (each, a "Lender" and collectively, the "Lenders").
WITNESSETH THAT, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
DEFINITIONS
For the purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings, unless the context hereof clearly requires otherwise:
Accordion Option:  Has the meaning set forth in Section 7.20.
Additional Property:  Has the meaning set forth in Section 7.21, and shall be deemed to include all Land, Improvements, Equipment and other "Trust Estate" or "Mortgaged Property" described in the Deed of Trust encumbering such property.
Advance:  Any portion of the Loan advanced to or for the benefit of Borrower in accordance with the terms hereof.
Advance Date:  Has the meaning set forth in Section 3.5. 
Affiliate:  Means, as to any Person, (a) any corporation in which such Person or any partner, shareholder, director, officer, member, or manager of such Person, at any level, directly or indirectly owns or controls more than ten percent (10%) of the beneficial interest, (b) any partnership, joint venture or limited liability company in which such Person or any partner, shareholder, director, officer, member, or manager of such Person, at any level, is a partner, joint venturer or member, (c) any trust in which such Person or any partner, shareholder, director, officer, member or manager of such Person, at any level, or any individual related by birth, adoption or marriage to such Person, is a trustee or beneficiary, (d) any entity of any type which is directly or indirectly owned or controlled by (or is under common control with) such Person or any partner, shareholder, director, officer, member or manager of such Person, at any level, (e) any partner, shareholder, director, officer, member, manager or employee of such Person, or (f) any individual related by birth, adoption or marriage to any partner, shareholder, director, officer, member, manager, or employee of such Person.  Controls (which includes the correlative meanings of "controlled by" and "under common control with") means effective power, 

	
			
	 
	-1-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

directly or indirectly, to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person.
Agent:  U.S. Bank National Association, as agent for itself and for other financial institutions which are now or may in the future become parties to this Agreement.
Agreement:  This Loan Agreement, including any amendments hereof and supplements hereto executed by Borrower and Agent.
Annualized Net Operating Income:  Means annualized Net Operating Income before payment of debt service from the Properties securing the Loan as of the date of calculation, calculated by annualizing the Net Operating Income for the immediately preceding prior two calendar quarters, provided that if the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is being calculated within 45 days after the end of a calendar quarter, the Net Operating Income shall be calculated by looking at the Net Operating Income during the two calendar quarters preceding the immediately prior calendar quarter; e.g., if the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is being calculated on January 10, 2013, the six-month period would be the period commencing on April 1, 2012 and ending on September 30, 2012 and if the Debt Service Coverage Ratio is being calculated on February 20, 2013, the six-month period would be the period commencing on July 1, 2012, and ending on December 31, 2012).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Property has been owned by a Borrower for less than the entire applicable foregoing period, then Net Operating Income for such Property shall be calculated by annualizing the Net Operating Income for such Property for the portion of such period during which a Borrower owned such Property.  In addition, until a Property has secured the Loan for one full calendar quarter, the Net Operating Income for that Property shall be calculated using the Agent's underwritten projected year one Rental Income and Operating Expenses for such Additional Property based on the Appraisal obtained for such Additional Property in accordance with Section 7.21 (e.g., if an Additional Property is added on June 15, 2012, this sentence would apply to such Additional Property until September 30, 2012).
Applicable Interest Rate:  Has the meaning set forth in Section 1.2.
Applicable Margin:  Means (a) for the period from the Closing Date through June 30, 2012, 3.0% per annum, and (b) for each subsequent calendar quarter, the applicable percentage set forth below in the "Applicable Margin" column, based on the Borrowing Base Leverage Ratio calculated by Agent as of the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter:
	
			
	Borrowing Base Leverage Ratio
	Applicable Margin
	Adjusted Applicable Margin

	≤ 55%
	2%
	1.85%

	> 55% and ≤ 60%
	2.25%
	2%

	> 60%
	3%
	2.75%

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the date as of which Agent confirms in writing that Properties REIT's Net Worth is equal to or greater than $250,000,000 (the "Adjusted Margin Date"),  the Applicable Margin shall be selected from the "Adjusted 

	
			
	 
	-2-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

I.    LOAN
1.1    Principal.  Subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender severally, but not jointly, agrees to lend to Borrower, pro rata in accordance with its Commitment Percentage, and Borrower agrees to borrow from the Lenders, the proceeds of the Loan, from time to time, in accordance with the terms hereof until the Maturity Date (as may be extended pursuant to the terms of Section 1.4 below).  All advances of Loan proceeds shall be evidenced by the Note.  In no event shall the Lenders be obligated hereunder to lend to Borrower more than Borrower has qualified to receive under the terms of Article III hereof.  Amounts borrowed under the Revolving Commitment and repaid can be re-borrowed subject to satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.  Amounts borrowed under the Term Commitment and repaid may not be subsequently reborrowed. 
1.2    Interest.
(a)    Absent an Event of Default hereunder, the outstanding principal balance hereunder shall bear interest at the Applicable Interest Rate (as defined below). The "Applicable Interest Rate" shall mean (a) the Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate, as the same may fluctuate from time to time, as to all amounts outstanding on the Loan, other than LIBOR Rate Advances, and (b) the LIBOR Rate as to those portions of the Loan that are LIBOR Rate Advances.  Changes in the Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate (if applicable) shall become effective on the same day as the date of any change in the Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate, and shall apply to all advances made hereunder (other than LIBOR Rate Advances), whether such advances are made prior to, the same day as, or subsequent to any particular change in the Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate.  
(b)    Interest accrued during each calendar month shall be payable, as accrued, on the first Business Day of the next calendar month, commencing on the first Business Day of the next calendar month following the calendar month in which the Initial Advance of the Loan is made, and all unpaid, accrued interest shall be paid in full at the time all advances are paid in full.  If all unpaid advances made by Agent and Lenders have not been repaid on or before the Maturity Date, then the entire unpaid balance of all advances made by Agent and Lenders shall (without notice to or demand upon Borrower) become due and payable on said date, together with all unpaid, accrued interest thereon, and with interest computed from and after that date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Note, until all advances are paid in full.
(c)    All payments of principal and interest due hereunder must be made without deduction of any present and future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, which amounts must be paid by Borrower.  Borrower shall pay the amounts necessary such that the gross amount of the principal and interest received by Agent and Lenders 

	
			
	 
	-15-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

is not less than that required by this Agreement and the Note.  If Borrower is required by law to deduct any such amounts from or in respect of any principal or interest payment hereunder, then (i) the sum payable to Agent and Lenders shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this provision) Agent and Lenders receive an amount equal to the sum they would have received had no deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.  Borrower shall pay all stamp and documentary taxes.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent or Lenders pay such taxes, Borrower shall reimburse Agent and Lenders for the amount paid.  Borrower shall furnish Agent official tax receipts or other evidence of payment of all taxes.
(d)    Throughout the term of the Loan, interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which interest is charged.  If any payment of interest to be made by Borrower hereunder becomes due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment must be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
(e)    Absent manifest error, Agent's records as to the amounts of principal, interest and other sums owing hereunder shall be conclusive and binding.
1.3    LIBOR Rate Option.  If no Event of Default, or event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, could become an Event of Default, has occurred and is continuing under any Loan Document, Borrower may from time to time elect, by a LIBOR Rate Notice, to pay interest on the LIBOR Rate Advance described in said LIBOR Rate Notice at a LIBOR Rate during the LIBOR Rate Period specified in said LIBOR Rate Notice.  Agent shall notify Borrower of the LIBOR Rate applicable to any LIBOR Rate Period promptly after the same is determined by Agent, which determination, in the absence of manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding on Borrower.  From and after the end of each LIBOR Rate Period, if Borrower does not timely select another interest rate option at least two New York Banking Days before the end of the LIBOR Rate Period for a LIBOR Rate Advance, Agent may at any time after the end of the LIBOR Rate Period convert the LIBOR Rate Advance to a Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate Advance accruing interest at the Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate, but until such conversion, such LIBOR Rate Advance shall continue to accrue interest at the same rate as the interest rate in effect for such LIBOR Rate Advance prior to the end of the LIBOR Rate Period, unless and until Borrower has again properly elected, by a LIBOR Rate Notice, to pay interest thereon at a LIBOR Rate pursuant to this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no more than four (4) LIBOR Rate Advances may be outstanding at any time.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 1.5 and Section 1.10, LIBOR Rate Advances may be repaid or prepaid on any day; provided, however, Borrower shall also pay to Agent, from time to time, on demand, any sums necessary to compensate Agent and Lenders for all costs, expenses, claims, penalties and liabilities incurred by Agent and Lenders by virtue of the repayment or prepayment of funds, or Agent's and Lenders' inability to repay or prepay funds, borrowed by Agent in the London interbank market to advance to Borrower or to make a LIBOR Rate available to Borrower including, without limitation, the Interest Differential.

1.4    Maturity Date; Extension.  All principal owing on the Loan, and all accrued interest and other sums owing under the Loan Documents not otherwise paid when due, shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date.  Borrower shall have the option to extend (each extension, an "Extension") the term of the Loan (the "First Extension") from the Maturity Date (the "Original Maturity Date") to a date that is twelve (12) months following the Original Maturity Date (for purposes of this Section, the "First Extended Maturity Date"), and upon the expiration of the First Extension, Borrower shall have the option to extend the term of the Loan (the "Second Extension") from the First Extended Maturity Date to a date that is twelve (12) months following the First Extended Maturity Date (for purposes of this Section, the "Second Extended Maturity Date"), each such Extension being subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent:
(a)    Borrower shall provide Agent with written notice of Borrower's request to exercise its option to extend the Maturity Date not more than one hundred twenty (120) days but not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the (i) the Original Maturity Date, in the case of the First Extension, and (ii) the First Extended Maturity Date, in the case of the Second Extension.
(b)    As of the date of Borrower's delivery of the notice of request to exercise its option to extend, and as of the then existing Maturity Date, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and no event or condition which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and Borrower shall so certify in writing to the best of its knowledge.
(c)    Prior to the commencement of the Extension, Borrower shall deliver to Agent, at Borrower's sole cost and expense, a date-down to the Title Policy in form and substance acceptable to Agent and such title insurance endorsements reasonably required by Agent to the extent available in each jurisdiction in which an applicable Property is located.
(d)    Immediately prior to the commencement of the Extension, Borrower shall pay to Agent an extension fee in the amount specified in the Fee Letter.
(e)    Borrower shall be in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Loan Documents.
(f)    Immediately prior to the commencement of the Extension, the Principal Balance shall not exceed the then current Availability Amount (based on evidence reasonably satisfactory to Agent, including updated Appraisals of the Properties commissioned by Agent and approved by Agent and Lenders); provided, however, if the Principal Balance exceeds the then current Availability Amount, Borrower may pay down the Principal Balance to an amount equal to the Availability Amount.
(g)    Guarantors shall be in compliance with their respective financial covenants set forth in the Guaranty, and Agent shall have received a certificate from each Guarantor certifying such compliance and such other information reasonably required by Agent to confirm that Guarantors are in compliance with such financial covenants to the extent such information is required pursuant to Section 5.4 below.  Without limiting the foregoing, 

	
			
	 
	-17-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

immediately prior to commencement of the Extension, Guarantors' combined Net Worth shall be not less than $250,000,000.00.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Second Extension may not come into effect unless the First Extension shall have been in effect.  If each of the foregoing conditions precedent are satisfied with respect to the First Extension, and the Original Maturity Date is extended as provided above to the First Extended Maturity Date, as used herein and in the other Loan Documents, the term "Maturity Date" shall thereafter mean the First Extended Maturity Date.  If each of the foregoing conditions precedent are satisfied with respect to the Second Extension, and the First Extended Maturity Date is extended as provided above to the Second Extended Maturity Date, as used herein and in the other Loan Documents, the term "Maturity Date" shall thereafter mean the Second Extended Maturity Date.
1.5    Prepayment.  Subject to Section 1.10 hereto, Borrower may prepay, in full or in part, principal advanced under the Revolving Loans and Term Loan and accrued interest thereon, provided that Borrower shall give Agent two (2) Business Days' prior written notice of the date of prepayment.  If Borrower prepays all or any portion of the Revolving Loans or Term Loan, Borrower shall also pay to Agent and Lenders any and all sums necessary to compensate Agent and Lenders for all costs, expenses, claims, penalties and liabilities incurred by Agent and Lenders by virtue of the repayment or prepayment of funds, or Agent's and/or Lenders' inability to repay or prepay funds borrowed by Agent and/or Lenders in the London interbank market to advance to Borrower or to make a LIBOR Rate available to Borrower, including, without limitation, the Interest Differential.
1.6    Yield Protection.  If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law), or any change in the interpretation, promulgation, implementation or administration thereof by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof including, notwithstanding the foregoing, all requests, rules, guidelines or directives in connection with Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued, or compliance by Agent or any Lender (or applicable Lending Installation) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency:
(a)    subjects Agent and/or any Lender (or any applicable Lending Installation) to any Taxes, or changes the basis of taxation of payments (other than with respect to Excluded Taxes) to Agent and/or any Lender in respect of the Loan or participations therein, including without limitation the principal of or interest on any LIBOR Rate Advance or any other fees or amounts payable hereunder (other than with respect to Excluded Taxes), or
(b)    imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, Agent and/or any Lender (or any applicable Lending Installation), or

	
			
	 
	-18-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

(c)    imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to Agent and/or any Lender (or any applicable Lending Installation) of making, funding or maintaining the Loan or any LIBOR Rate Advance (or any related Loan commitment), or to reduce any amount receivable by Agent and/or any Lender (or any applicable Lending Installation) in connection with the Loan or participations therein (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), or requires Agent and/or any Lender (or any applicable Lending Installation) to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of the Loan by an amount deemed material by Agent and/or such Lender, 
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Agent and/or such Lender (or applicable Lending Installation) of making or maintaining the Loan or to reduce the return received by Agent and/or such Lender (or applicable Lending Installation), as the case may be, in connection with the Loan, then, upon written demand by Agent, Borrower shall pay Agent and/or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Agent and/or such Lender for such increased cost or reduction in amount received, as reasonably determined by Agent and/or such Lender.  A statement from Agent setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to so compensate Agent and/or such Lender shall be delivered to Borrower and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.  Borrower shall pay Agent (for the benefit of Agent and/or such Lender) the amount shown as due on any such statement within fifteen (15) days after its receipt of the same.  Failure on the part of Agent and/or such Lender to demand compensation for any increased costs, lost income or reduction in amounts received or receivable shall not constitute a waiver of Agent's or such Lender's rights to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable.  The protection under this section shall be available to Agent and the Lenders regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of any law, regulation or directive which shall give rise to any demand by Agent or any Lender.
1.7    Inability to Determine LIBOR.  In the event that on the date for determining LIBOR in respect of the LIBOR Rate Period for any LIBOR Rate Advance, Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such LIBOR Rate Period, Agent shall promptly give to Borrower notice (confirmed as soon as practicable in writing) of the nature and effect of such circumstances, and the LIBOR Rate Advance in question shall bear interest, or continue to bear interest, as the case may be, at the Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate.  If at any time subsequent to Agent's giving of such notice, Agent determines that because of a change in circumstances the LIBOR Rate is again available to Borrower, Agent shall so notify Borrower and shall convert the rate of interest payable with respect to such portion of the Principal Balance from the Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate to the LIBOR Rate.  Nothing in this Section shall affect the LIBOR Rate then in effect on any LIBOR Rate Advance outstanding at the time of receipt by Borrower of such notice until the expiration of the LIBOR Rate Period in effect with respect to such LIBOR Rate Advance at such time.
1.8    Illegality.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, if any Change shall make it unlawful for Agent and/or the Lenders to make or maintain any LIBOR Rate Advance or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby, then, by written notice to Borrower, Agent may:

	
			
	 
	-19-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

(a)    declare that LIBOR Rate Advances will not thereafter be made hereunder, in which event Borrower shall be prohibited from requesting LIBOR Rate Advances from Agent, and Agent shall not be required to make LIBOR Rate Advances to Borrower, hereunder unless such declaration is subsequently withdrawn; and
(b)    require, but only to the extent the Change affects outstanding LIBOR Rate Advances, that all outstanding LIBOR Rate Advances made by Agent and/or the Lenders be added to, and become a part of, the Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate Advances hereunder, in which event all such LIBOR Rate Advances shall automatically be added to, and become a part of, the Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate Advances as of the effective date of such notice as is hereinafter provided for (notwithstanding any provisions of the Note or this Agreement to the contrary), and interest shall accrue thereon, from and after said date, at the Monthly Reset LIBOR Rate or the Default Rate, whichever is then applicable.  For purposes of this Section, a notice to Borrower by Agent shall be effective, if lawful, on the date of receipt by Borrower.
1.9    Capital Adequacy.  If Agent determines the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by Agent or any Lender, any Lending Installation of Agent or any Lender, or any corporation or other Person controlling Agent or any Lender is increased as a result of a Change, then, within fifteen (15) days of demand by Agent, the Borrower shall pay to Agent the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which Agent determines is attributable to this Agreement or any Loan or commitment made hereunder (after taking into account Agent's policies as to capital adequacy).  Without limiting the foregoing, such compensation shall include an amount equal to any reduction in return on assets or return on equity to a level below that which Agent or any Lender could have achieved absent its extension of credit hereunder and but for such Change.  Agent will notify Borrower as promptly as practicable after it determines to demand such compensation.  "Change" means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines (defined below) or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation, promulgation, implementation or administration thereof after the date of this Agreement which affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by Agent or any Lender (or any Lending Installation) or any corporation or other Person controlling Agent or any Lender, including without limitation, (a) any such law, regulation or change which affects the London interbank market, and (b) any such change which results in an adjustment (i) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation assessment rate, (ii) of the reserve requirement specified by Regulation D.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of this Agreement, all requests, rules, guidelines or directives in connection with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act shall be deemed to be a Change regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States financial regulatory authorities shall be deemed to be a Change regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.  "Risk-Based Capital Guidelines" means (i) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United States including transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement.

1.10    Indemnification of Agent and the Lenders.  Except for a failure caused by Agent's default, Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders against any loss or expense that Agent and/or Lenders may sustain or incur (including, without limitation, any loss or expense sustained or incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds acquired to effect, fund or maintain any LIBOR Rate Advance, but excluding any Lender's (other than Agent's attorneys' fees) as a consequence of (a) any failure of the Borrower to make any payment when due of any amount due under the Loan Documents, (b) any failure of the Borrower to borrow, continue or convert a LIBOR Rate Advance on a date specified therefor in a notice thereof, (c) any failure to fulfill on the scheduled commencement date of any LIBOR Rate Period hereunder the applicable conditions set forth herein as prerequisites to an advance that is to be a LIBOR Rate Advance or to the election of a LIBOR Rate Advance at a LIBOR Rate, (d) any failure to borrow hereunder after a LIBOR Rate Notice has been given, (e) any payment or prepayment permitted or mandated hereunder of a LIBOR Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of the relevant LIBOR Rate Period, including without limitation upon acceleration following an Event of Default, or (f) the occurrence of any Event of Default, including but not limited to any loss or expense sustained or incurred or to be sustained or incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties acquired to effect or maintain a LIBOR Rate Advance.  Without limiting the foregoing, such loss or expense shall conclusively be deemed to include the Interest Differential.  Because of the short‐term nature of this facility, the Borrower agrees that the Interest Differential shall not be discounted to its present value.  Any prepayment of an Advance bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate shall be in an amount equal to the remaining entire principal balance of such advance.  Agent shall provide to Borrower a statement, signed by an officer of Agent, explaining any such loss or expense and the Interest Differential, and setting forth, if applicable, the computations used to determine such loss or expense and the Interest Differential, which shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower, absent manifest error.  All such loss, expense and Interest Differential shall be payable by Borrower to Agent within five (5) days of demand by Agent.
Borrower acknowledges that payment or prepayment of any LIBOR Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of an applicable LIBOR Rate Period shall result in Agent and Lenders incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities, and any such payment or prepayment therefore must include the Interest Differential and other sums set forth above.  Borrower hereby expressly (a) waives any rights it may have under California Civil Code Section 2954.10 to prepay any LIBOR Rate Advance without penalty, upon acceleration of the maturity of the Loan, and (b) agrees that if a prepayment of any LIBOR Rate Advance is made, following any acceleration of the maturity of the Loan by the Agent on account of any transfer or disposition as prohibited or restricted by this Agreement or by any Deed of Trust, then Borrower shall be obligated to pay, concurrently therewith, as a prepayment premium, the applicable Interest Differential and other sums specified above.  By initialing this provision in the space provided below, Borrower hereby declares that the Agent and Lenders' agreement to make the subject Loan at the interest rate and for the term set forth in this Agreement constitutes adequate consideration, given individual weight by Borrower, for this waiver and agreement.
BORROWER'S INITIALS:   ___________  ___________  ___________

1.11    Default Rate.  If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing under the Note, this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, or the entire Principal Balance, all interest accrued thereon, and all other amounts payable under the Loan have not been repaid on or before the Maturity Date, then the entire Principal Balance shall (without notice to or demand upon Borrower) become due and payable on said date, together with all unpaid, accrued interest thereon and all other amounts payable under the Loan, and with interest computed on all such sums from and after that date at a rate which is five percent (5.0%) per annum in excess of the rate(s) of interest then accruing on the Principal Balance, or at the maximum lawful rate of interest which may be charged thereon by Agent, if any, whichever is less (hereinafter called "Default Rate"), until all such amounts are paid in full.
1.12    Late Payment Charge.  In the event that any required payment of principal and/or interest hereunder is not made on or before the due date thereof, taking into account any grace period, (but expressly excluding payment of principal due upon maturity (by acceleration or otherwise), Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, a late payment charge equal to five percent (5.0%) of the amount of the overdue payment, for the purpose of reimbursing Agent and Lenders for a portion of the expense incident to handling the overdue payment.
1.13    Effective Rate.  Borrower, Agent and the Lenders agree that no payment of interest or other consideration made or agreed to be made by Borrower to Agent and/or the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement, the Note, any Deed of Trust or any other instrument referring to or securing the Loan shall, at any time, be deemed to have been computed at an interest rate in excess of the maximum rate of interest permissible by law, if any.  In the event such payments of interest or other consideration provided for in this Agreement, the Note, any Deed of Trust or any other instrument referring to or securing the Loan shall result in payment of an effective rate of interest which, for any period of time, is in excess of the limit of the usury law or any other law applicable to the Loan evidenced by the Note, all sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest for the period in question shall, without further agreement or notice between or by any party or parties hereto, be applied to the Principal Balance immediately upon receipt of such monies by Agent with the same force and effect as though Borrower had specifically designated, and Agent had agreed to accept, such extra payments as a principal payment, without premium or penalty.  If principal has been fully paid, any such excess amount shall be refunded to Borrower.  This provision shall control over every other obligation of Borrower, Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the Note, the Deeds of Trust and any other instrument which secures the Note.
1.14    Application of Payments.  Unless Agent otherwise consents in writing, all proceeds and payments made and received under the Note shall be applied in the manner set forth in Section 8.5(b); provided, that if an Event of Default exists and is continuing, with the written consent of all Lenders, Agent may apply any payments and proceeds received to the obligations owing under the Loan Documents and any Swap Contracts in such order and manner as Agent, with the consent of all Lenders, may elect (and if such consent is not forthcoming, in the order and manner set forth in Section 8.5(b)). 
1.15    Fees.  On the date hereof and on or before the dates set forth therein, Borrower shall pay U.S. Bank all fees, costs and expenses referenced in the Fee Letter (including but not 

	
			
	 
	-22-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

limited to the Unused Fee as set forth therein).  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, all fees, costs and expenses payable to U.S. Bank under the Fee Letter shall be solely for the account of U.S. Bank, and need not be shared with any other Lender (except only, if at all, as set forth in a separate letter agreement between U.S. Bank and such other Lender).
1.16    No Waiver by Agent.  Agent shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies, and no waiver of any kind shall be valid unless in writing and signed by Agent.  All rights and remedies of Agent under the terms of this Agreement, the Note, or any of the other Loan Documents, and under any statutes or rules of law shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently.  Any provision of this Agreement and the Note which may be unenforceable or invalid under any law shall be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability or invalidity without affecting the enforceability or validity of any other provision hereof.
II.    CONDITIONS OF BORROWING
Neither Agent nor the Lenders shall be required to make any advances hereunder until the pre-closing requirements, conditions and other requirements set forth below and in Article III have been completed and fulfilled to the satisfaction of Agent, at Borrower's sole cost and expense.  It is agreed, however, that Agent and the Lenders may, in their discretion, make advances prior to completion and fulfillment of any or all of such pre‐closing requirements, conditions and requirements, without waiving its right to require such completion and fulfillment before any additional advances are made.  If all conditions to the disbursement of the Loan are not satisfied by the Termination Date, Agent at its option and in its sole discretion may terminate this Agreement and all obligations of Agent and Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

III.    ADVANCES OF LOAN PROCEEDS
3.1    General.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Lender shall, pro rata according to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the Committed Amount, make advances to Borrower in such amounts as Borrower may request in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  All monies advanced by Agent and the Lenders (including amounts payable to Agent and the Lenders and advanced by Agent and the Lenders to themselves pursuant to the terms hereof) shall constitute loans made to Borrower under this Agreement, evidenced by the Note and this Agreement and secured by the other Loan Documents, and interest shall be computed thereon, as prescribed by this Agreement and the Note, from the date Borrower's Loan account is charged with the amount of the advance, whether or not an advance made to the Title Company is fully disbursed by the Title Company or is withheld in full or in part.
No advance shall constitute a waiver of any condition precedent to the obligation of the Lenders to make any further advance or preclude Agent from thereafter declaring the failure of Borrower to satisfy any such condition precedent to be an Event of Default.  All conditions precedent to the obligation of the Lenders to make any advance are imposed hereby solely for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders, and no other party may require satisfaction of any such condition precedent or shall be entitled to assume that Agent and the Lenders will make or refuse to make any advance in the absence of strict compliance with such condition precedent.
Agent may, at Agent's option, without any obligation to do so, advance to Agent and/or Lenders from the proceeds of the Loan all other sums due or to become due Agent and/or Lenders under this Agreement, under any Swap Contract entered into with Borrower or under any of the other Loan Documents, including but not limited to their fees, attorneys' fees, Appraisal fees, internal Appraisal review and other fees, administrative fees and expenses, syndication and transfer costs, and all other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Agent in connection with this Agreement and with the Loan.  Agent shall also have the right, but not the obligation, to advance and directly apply the proceeds of the Loan to the satisfaction of any of Borrower's other obligations hereunder, under any Swap Contracts entered into with Borrower or under any of the other Loan Documents.  
In no event shall Agent and Lenders have any obligation to make any advance if the requested advance, plus the sum of all outstanding advances, would exceed the then current Availability Amount.
3.2    Inspections.  Agent, the Title Company, Consultants and their representatives shall have access to the Properties at all reasonable times and upon not less than twenty four hours prior notice, and shall have the right to enter any Property and to conduct such inspections thereof at their sole cost and expense, and subject to the rights of tenants under their leases, provided if an Event of Default exists, such inspection shall be at Borrower's expense, as they shall deem necessary or desirable for the protection of the interests of Agent and the Lenders.
3.3    Responsibility of Agent and the Lenders.  It is expressly understood and agreed that neither Agent nor the Lenders assume any liability or responsibility for protection of the 

	
			
	 
	-27-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

Properties, for any representations made by Borrower, or for any acts on the part of Borrower to be performed under the Loan Documents.
3.4    [Intentionally Deleted].
3.5    Initial Advance and Additional Advances.  Provided that all of the terms and conditions precedent set forth in Article II above and this Article III (including without limitation Section 3.6 below) shall have been satisfied or deemed satisfied as provided in Article II above, Lenders shall make the Initial Advance of the Loan in the amount of $40,000,000 from the Term Commitment and $40,697,500 from the Revolving Commitment (collectively, the "Initial Advance") to or for the benefit of Borrower.  At any time from and after the Closing Date through the date that is sixty (60) days prior to the initial Maturity Date (or to the date that is sixty (60) days prior to the applicable extended Maturity Date if Borrower exercises one or both of its extension options pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.4 herein) (the "Availability Period"), provided that all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Article III have been satisfied (or deemed satisfied) or waived, Borrower shall have the right to request and receive additional advances of the Loan (each, an "Additional Advance") in an amount not to exceed the then existing Availability Amount.  Whenever Borrower desires to obtain an advance of Loan proceeds, Borrower shall submit a signed Draw Request, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J, to Agent at least two (2) business days prior to the date on which the requested advance is to be made ("Advance Date").  The funding of any Additional Advance shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following additional conditions:
(a)    If requested by Agent in connection with any advance, Borrower shall provide to Agent one or more endorsements (to the full extent available) to and continuation of each Title Policy, showing that there have been no mechanic's or materialmen's liens or other liens filed since the date of the issuance of such Title Policy, ensuring that each Additional Advance shall be secured by the Deeds of Trusts in a first lien position, subject to no other liens or title exceptions, other than the Permitted Encumbrances, and/or updating the effective date of each Title Policy to the relevant Advance Date, which endorsements shall be provided at Borrower's expense.  If any liens or other matters, which in Agent's good faith reasonable judgment jeopardize or otherwise impair its security interest (and/or the first priority thereof) in any Property, are disclosed by said endorsement and continuation or are in any other manner discovered by the Title Company or Agent, no further advances shall be made until such liens or other matters have been waived by Agent or satisfied in a manner acceptable to Agent.  Upon written demand of Agent, Borrower shall immediately cause any such liens or other matters to be satisfied or released, of record, or bonded around and removed from the Property encumbered thereby or affirmatively insured over by the Title Company to Agent's satisfaction, or shall make other arrangements with respect to the discharge thereof and the releases thereof from the Property encumbered thereby as are acceptable to Agent, in its reasonable discretion.
(b)    No Event of Default (or event that with the giving of notice and/or the passage of time could become an Event of Default) shall have occurred and be continuing.  In no event shall Agent be required to make any advance unless, at the time of the advance, there shall exist no Event of Default hereunder (or event that with the giving of notice and/or the passage of time could become an Event of Default), and all representations and warranties made herein shall 

	
			
	 
	-28-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

be true and correct in all material respects on and as of each Advance Date with the same effect as if made on that date.
(c)    Unless otherwise agreed by Agent, Borrower shall not be entitled to more than two (2) disbursement of Loan proceeds per month.
(d)    Each Advance under the Loan must be for at least Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000), or for the amount of the remaining available Committed Amount if less.
(e)    In no event shall Agent and Lenders have any obligation to make any advance if the requested advance, plus the sum of all the previous advances, would exceed the then existing Availability Amount. 
3.6    Additional Conditions to Each Disbursement.  In addition to all other conditions and requirements set forth in this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, Agent may require that each of the following conditions be satisfied (or deemed satisfied or waived as provided in Article II herein) with respect to each disbursement of Loan proceeds:
(a)    As of the date of each disbursement, no suit or proceeding at law or in equity, and no investigation or proceeding of any governmental body, has been instituted or, to the knowledge of Borrower, has been threatened, which in either case would substantially, negatively affect the condition or business operations of Borrower or the Property.
(b)    As of the date of each disbursement, no default or Event of Default under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents shall have occurred and be continuing, and no event shall have occurred which, upon the service of notice and/or the lapse of time, would constitute an Event of Default thereunder.
(c)    As of the date of each disbursement, the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of this Agreement shall each be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of each disbursement.
(d)    Agent shall have determined, in its reasonable discretion, that immediately following the requested disbursements of Loan proceeds, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan would not exceed the Availability Amount.

V.    COVENANTS OF BORROWER
While this Agreement is in effect, and until the Lenders have been paid in full the principal of and interest on all advances made by the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Document, Borrower hereby covenants as set forth in this Article V:
5.1    Paying Costs of Property and Loan.  Borrower shall pay and discharge, when due, all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges upon each Property, as well as all claims for labor and materials which, if unpaid, might become a lien or charge upon any Property; provided, however, that Borrower shall have the right to contest the amount, validity and/or applicability of any of the foregoing with respect to any Property in strict accordance with the terms of the Deed of Trust encumbering such Property.
Borrower shall also pay all costs and expenses of Agent (but not any of the other Lenders) and Borrower in connection with each Property, the preparation and review of the Loan Documents and the making, closing, administration and repayment of the Loan, including, but not limited to, the fees of Agent's attorneys (which shall be limited to reasonable attorneys' fees), appraisal fees, environmental fees, survey and title search fees, title insurance costs, disbursement expenses, and all other costs and expenses payable to third parties incurred by Agent or Borrower in connection with the Loan.  Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall 

	
			
	 
	-32-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

pay all reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of outside counsel for Agent (determined on the basis of such counsel's generally applicable rates) and/or the allocated costs of in-house counsel incurred from time to time.  Such costs and expenses shall be so paid by Borrower whether or not the Loan is fully advanced or disbursed.
5.2    Using Loan Proceeds.  Borrower shall use the Loan proceeds only for investments in commercial real estate and for other business and investment purposes (which shall include distributions to its members when such distributions are permitted under the terms and conditions of this Agreement), and in no event shall Borrower use the proceeds of the Loan for family or household purposes. Borrower agrees not to permit, at any time, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan to exceed the Committed Amount (as it may be reduced hereunder), and if Agent determines at any time that the outstanding principal balance of the Loan exceeds the Committed Amount, Borrower shall immediately pay to Agent upon demand by Agent, an amount sufficient to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Loan to an amount equal to or less than the then existing Committed Amount.  Borrower's failure to comply with this Section shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Loan Documents.  
5.3    Keeping of Records.  Borrower shall set up and maintain accurate and complete books, accounts and records pertaining to each Property in a manner reasonably acceptable to Agent.  Borrower will permit representatives of Agent to have free access to and to inspect and copy all books, records and contracts of Borrower.  Any such inspection by Agent and/or its Consultants shall be for the sole benefit and protection of Agent and the Lenders, and Agent shall have no obligation to disclose the results thereof to Borrower or to any third party.
5.4    Providing Financial Information.  Beginning with the quarter ending June 30, 2012, Borrower shall furnish to Agent (a) evidence of payment of real estate taxes assessed against each Property on or before each due date thereof during the term of the Loan, (b) annual unaudited financial statements for each Borrower and each Guarantor within one hundred twenty (120) days of each fiscal year end, including balance sheets, income statements, a statement of cash flow and supporting schedules reasonably requested by Agent, (c) quarterly unaudited financial statements for each Borrower and each Guarantor, within forty-five (45) days of each fiscal quarter end, including balance sheets and income statements, and at Agent's request, a statement of funds available for distribution and a supplementary real estate schedule (including, when applicable, covenant compliance certificates from each Guarantor in form and substance satisfactory to Agent with respect to Guarantor's financial covenants set forth in the Guaranty), (d) to the extent there is a balance outstanding under the Loan during such period, a quarterly certification statement and Availability Amount calculation within forty-five (45) days of each fiscal quarter end, including Borrower's Borrowing Base Amount calculation, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, and (e) such additional information as Agent shall reasonably request (not more than once per month) regarding any Borrower, any Guarantor and any Property, within thirty (30) days (or such reasonably necessary time period as may be required by Borrower or any Guarantor) after Agent's written request therefor.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as Parent REIT files a 10-K Form (the "10-K Form") or a 10-Q Form (the "10-Q Form") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the foregoing requirement to provide annual unaudited financial statements or quarterly unaudited financial statements, as applicable, for Parent REIT shall be deemed satisfied.  All such financial statements shall be in 

	
			
	 
	-33-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

reasonable detail, shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, and shall be certified by the party to which they apply as true, correct and complete.
5.5    Providing Operating Budgets and Operating Statements.  Borrower shall deliver to Agent within forty-five (45) days after the end of each fiscal quarter (or, upon Agent's written request, within thirty (30) days after the end of the applicable month, and not more frequently than once per calendar month), a Borrower prepared Operating Statement and rent roll for each Property for the preceding calendar quarter, which shall specifically note all material variations from such Property's current Operating Budget.  Borrower shall also deliver to Agent an annual Operating Statement and rent roll for each Property within one hundred twenty (120) days following the end of each fiscal year.  All such Operating Statements shall be certified as true, correct and complete by Borrower.
5.6    Providing Leasing Information.  Borrower shall provide a leasing status report for each Property within forty-five (45) days of the end of each fiscal quarter (or, upon Agent's request, thirty (30) days following the end of the applicable month).
5.7    Maintaining Insurance Coverage.  Borrower shall, at all times until all Obligations have been fully repaid, maintain, or cause to be maintained, in effect (and shall furnish to Agent copies of), insurance policies or insurance certificates, as required under the terms of Exhibit G attached hereto, and shall furnish to Agent on an annual basis with proof of payment of all premiums therefor within thirty (30) days of payment.
5.8    Complying with Other Documents.  Borrower shall comply with and perform all of its agreements and obligations under all other contracts and agreements to which any Borrower is a party relating to the ownership, occupancy, use, development, construction or management of the Properties to the extent, at such time, a reasonably prudent owner of commercial property would do so, and shall comply with all requests by Agent which are consistent with the terms thereof.
5.9    Lease Approval Rights.  Except as specified below, Borrower shall not enter into, amend or modify any lease covering any portion of any Property without Agent's prior written consent, in Agent's reasonable discretion, and shall furnish to Agent, upon execution, a fully executed copy of each such lease entered into by Borrower, together with all exhibits and attachments thereto and all amendments and modifications thereof.  For leases that require Agent approval, Borrower shall provide Agent with a copy of the Letter of Intent ("LOI") for each proposed lease and, to the extent available, with financial information on the proposed tenant to aid Agent in determining whether it will consent thereto. Agent may declare any future leases with key tenants at any Property to be prior or subordinate to the Deed of Trust encumbering such Property, at Agent's sole option, and Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain SNDAs to achieve such subordination.  A proposed LOI shall be deemed approved by Agent unless Agent disapproves such LOI in writing within five (5) Business Days after such LOI is submitted to Agent for approval.  Upon approval (or deemed approval) of the LOI, no further approval will be required by Agent and Agent will have granted its consent to the lease that results from the LOI so long as such lease is on a lease form approved by Agent (which lease form may be modified to address customary lease modifications in the marketplace), and 

	
			
	 
	-34-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

the business terms in the lease are not materially different from the terms outlined in the approved (or deemed approved) LOI.
Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 5.9, with respect to Qualifying Leases (as defined below), Borrower shall not be obligated to obtain Agent's prior written consent so long as such lease (i) is on a lease form approved by Agent (which lease form may be modified to address customary lease modifications in the marketplace); (ii) the net effective rent payable under such lease is equal to or in excess of 85% of market rents at the time the lease is executed; and (iii) the term for such lease is equal to or greater than 1-year.
Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain SNDAs and estoppel statements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, as to those leases and tenants requested by Agent, within thirty (30) days of Agent's request.
For purposes of this Section 5.9, "Qualifying Lease" shall mean a lease for less than 50,000 square feet.
5.10    Compliance with Laws.  Borrower will comply and, to the extent it is able, will cause others to comply with all laws and requirements of Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction over the processing, approving and recording of any subdivision map, any of the Land or construction or sale of any of the Improvements and will furnish Agent with reports of any official searches for violation of any requirements established by such Governmental Authorities.  Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply and, to the extent it is able, will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause others to comply with all restrictive covenants and all obligations created by private contracts and leases which affect ownership, construction, equipping, fixturing, use, occupancy, sale or leasing of each Property (or any portion thereof).  Each Property and the leasing and sale thereof shall be in compliance with all permits and approvals issued by Governmental Authorities with respect to such Property, applicable building, zoning and use laws, requirements, regulations and ordinances and such leasing and sale will not violate any restrictions of record against such Property.  Borrower will deliver to Agent, promptly after receipt thereof, copies of all permits and approvals received from Governmental Authorities relating to the use, development, leasing and/or sale of the Improvements for each Property.
5.11    Ownership of Personal Property.  Each Borrower is, and after the date hereof, will be the sole owner of all Equipment pertaining to such Borrower's Property, free from any adverse lien, security interest or adverse claim of any kind whatsoever, except for security interests and liens in favor of Agent and other liens approved by Agent, in Agent's sole discretion.  Borrower will not convey or transfer any portion of the Equipment without the prior written consent of Agent.
5.12    Representations and Warranties.  Until repayment of the Note and all other obligations secured by the Deeds of Trust, Borrower shall ensure that the representations and warranties of Article IV remain true and complete in all material respects, provided Agent shall not declare an Event of Default based solely on a breach of this covenant unless Agent reasonably determines that such breach (a) would have a material adverse effect on any Property, any Borrower and/or any Guarantor or (b) was intentional.

5.13    Trade Names.

Promptly upon receiving notice thereof, Borrower will give, or cause to be given, prompt written notice to Agent of (a) any action or proceeding instituted by or against any Borrower or any Guarantor in any federal or state court or before any commission or other regulatory body, Federal, state or local, foreign or domestic; or (b) any such proceedings that are threatened against any Borrower, or any Guarantor which, if adversely determined, could have a material and adverse effect upon any Borrower's or any Guarantor's businesses, operations, properties, assets, managements, natures of ownership or conditions (financial or otherwise) or which would constitute an event of default or a default under any other contract, instrument or agreement to which any of them is a party or by or to which any of them or any of their properties or assets may be bound or subject; or (c) any actions, proceedings or notices materially adversely affecting any Property (or any portion thereof) or Agent's interest therein or any zoning, building or other municipal officers, offices or departments having jurisdiction with respect to any Property or the leasing of it.

	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

5.22    No Other Debt.  Without Agent's written consent, no Borrower shall incur any other indebtedness, whether secured or unsecured, other than the Loan, trade debt and other expenditures contemplated under this Agreement (including payment of taxes, insurance, tenant improvements and capital expenditures) reasonably incurred in the ordinary course of operating such Borrower's Property (all of which are debts which are expressly permitted under the Loan Documents); provided that the foregoing shall not be deemed to prohibit up to $1,000,000 in the aggregate at each Property owing under equipment leases for equipment to be used by Borrowers in connection with the Properties; and provided further, however, that in no case may such leased equipment be incorporated into any Improvements as part of the structure thereof or otherwise installed as part of any Improvements in such a way that the removal thereof would result in material damage to such Improvements.
5.23    Mandatory Principal Payments.  If, as of the end of any calendar quarter, as  determined by the quarterly reporting provided by Borrower pursuant to the terms of Section 5.4 above, the Principal Balance exceeds the Borrowing Base Amount, Borrower shall, within 30 days of written demand by Agent, pay down the outstanding principal of the loan by an amount (as reasonably determined by Agent but without paying any prepayment or exit fees other than Interest Differential amounts and sums owing under Section 1.10, and Swap Contract fees or breakage amounts) sufficient to cause the Principal Balance to not exceed the Borrowing Base Amount.  The calculation of the Borrowing Base Amount shall be based upon Net Operating Income based on the financial information received from Borrower in accordance with Section 5.4 or, if Borrower has failed to deliver such information as and when required by Section 5.4 (or if Agent reasonably and in good faith believes such information to be inaccurate), such other information as Agent reasonably and in good faith deems appropriate.
5.24    Affiliate Transactions.  No Borrower shall engage in any transaction affecting any Property with an Affiliate of any Borrower or of any Guarantor unless (a) the Affiliate is either a taxable REIT subsidiary of Parent REIT or KBS Capital Advisors LLC, (b) the terms are commercially reasonable and Borrower's payment terms thereunder are competitive with amounts that would be paid to or received from third parties on an "arm's-length" basis, (c) the terms are reduced to a writing covering all material aspects of such arrangement, and (d) the agreement with the Affiliate is terminable without cause by Borrower or Agent, without penalty or fee, upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice.

5.27    Required Blocked Account Deposit.  Borrower shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, any and all rental payments received from Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati ("Wilson Sonsini") after the Closing Date in excess of an aggregate of one month's rental payments (the "Required Payment"), within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of same, into a U.S. Bank controlled blocked bank account held by Agent on behalf of the Lenders (together with all replacement and/or successor accounts, collectively, the "Blocked Account"), for which 

	
			
	 
	-38-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

Borrower shall have no right of control, access, or withdrawal.  For example, if Wilson Sonsini makes a rental payment to Borrower equal to six months' rent when only one months' rent is owing, Borrower shall deposit within the specified time frame an amount equal to five months' rent.  The U.S. Bank initial account number for the Blocked Account is 153497041936.  Borrower's failure to make the required deposit into the Blocked Account within the required time period shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents.  Borrower hereby grants to Agent and Lenders a first priority lien and security interest in any funds and proceeds deposited with U.S. Bank in such Blocked Account and in all other deposit accounts of Borrower with Agent or U.S. Bank to secure the Loan and all obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents (collectively for the purposes of this Section, the "Blocked Account Collateral").  U.S. Bank, in its capacity as the depository bank for the operating accounts and any other deposit accounts, hereby acknowledges notice of the above pledge and security interest, and agrees to follow all instructions of Agent with respect thereto.  Borrower hereby agrees that Borrower shall have no right to give any such direction as to the Blocked Account Collateral to U.S. Bank, as depository bank.  The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that U.S. Bank, as depository bank, holds or will hold possession of the Blocked Account Collateral for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, as secured parties, and will take directions from U.S. Bank, as Agent, with respect to the Blocked Account Collateral.  So long as no Event of Default, and no event or condition which, with the giving of notice and the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, then exists, to the extent funds are available, once per month, promptly upon receipt of Borrower's written request, Agent shall transfer to the Borrower Operating Account an amount equal to one month's rental payments payable under the Wilson Sonsini lease.  Borrower hereby specifically and irrevocably requests and authorizes Agent to make such transfers without further authorization or direction from Borrower.  Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Agent may stop disbursements from the Blocked Account and/or apply any funds deposited into the Blocked Account to the payment of the Loan or any other amounts owing under the Loan Documents or any Swap Transactions with Agent and/or any Lender relating to the Loan, in such order and manner as Agent, in its reasonable discretion, deems appropriate (which, as between Agent and Lenders, shall be subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement as to such application).
VI.    DEFAULTS
6.1    Events of Default.  Any of the following events shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement:
(a)    Borrower shall fail to make payment of principal within three (3) business days after the same becomes due according to the terms hereof or of any Note.
(b)    Borrower shall fail to make payment of interest on advances made by Agent or Lenders, or fail to pay any fees or other amounts payable to Agent or Lenders, hereunder, under any Note or under any of the other Loan Documents within three (3) business days after the same becomes due.

(c)    Any Borrower or any Guarantor shall fail to perform or observe any obligation or covenant (other than those obligations and covenants described in subparagraphs (a) and (b), above, or otherwise set forth in subparagraphs (d) through (l), below, of this Section 6.1) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice that such obligation was not performed; provided that, if cure cannot reasonably be effected within such 30-day period, such failure shall not be an event of default hereunder so long as Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable, promptly (in any event, within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice) commences cure, and thereafter diligently (in any event, within sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice) prosecutes such cure to completion; and provided further, however, that notwithstanding the 30-day cure period or extended cure period described above in this subparagraph (c), if a different notice or cure period is specified under any Loan Document or under any provision of the Loan Documents as to any such failure or breach, the specific Loan Document or provision shall control, and Borrower and Guarantor, as applicable, shall have no more time to cure the failure or breach than is allowed under the specific Loan Document or provision as to such failure or breach.
(d)    Any representation or warranty made by any Borrower in this Agreement, in any of the other Loan Documents, or in any certificate or document furnished under the terms of this Agreement or in connection with the Loan, shall be untrue or incomplete in any material respect provided, to the extent curable and to the extent Agent determines a breach was not intentional, Borrower shall have thirty (30) days to remedy the untrue or incomplete representation, warranty, document or other material (so that it is true and complete in all material respects), before such event constitutes an Event of Default hereunder.
(e)    Any Borrower shall be in default under the terms of any of the other Loan Documents beyond any applicable grace or cure period specified therein, and such default shall not be waived by Agent, or an Event of Default shall exist under the terms of any such instrument.
(f)    Any Borrower or any Guarantor shall apply for, consent to or permit the appointment of a receiver, custodian, trustee or liquidator for it or any of its property or assets; or shall fail to, or admit in writing its inability to, pay its debts as they mature; or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or shall be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent; or shall take other similar action for the benefit or protection of its creditors; or shall give notice to any governmental body of insolvency or pending insolvency or suspension of operations; or shall file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or a petition or an answer seeking reorganization or an arrangement with creditors, or to take advantage of any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, readjustment of debt, rearrangement, dissolution, liquidation or other similar debtor relief law or statute; or shall file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against it in any proceeding under any such law or statute; or shall be dissolved, liquidated, terminated or merged; or shall effect a plan or other arrangement with creditors; or a trustee, receiver, liquidator or custodian shall be appointed for it or for any of its property or assets and shall not be discharged within ninety (90) days after the date of his appointment; or a petition in involuntary bankruptcy or similar proceedings is filed against it and is not dismissed within ninety (90) days after the date of its filing.

	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

(g)    Any of the Guaranty or the Environmental Indemnity, at any time and for any reason ceases to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor or indemnitor contests or denies the validity or enforceability of the Guaranty or the Environmental Indemnity, or gives notice to Agent to such effect, or otherwise attempts to revoke or repudiate any of the foregoing as to any existing or future obligations, or any Borrower has a Guarantor as a general partner (or otherwise has a structure where a Guarantor would be liable for such Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents absent the Guaranty).
(h)    Any Borrower shall fail to maintain insurance as required by this Agreement (which, for purposes of clarification, shall not include the Environmental Insurance Policy, it being understood by the parties that termination of such Environmental Insurance Policy shall not be an Event of Default, or constitute a breached obligation under this Agreement, but instead shall only trigger liability of the Guarantors under the Guaranty for any amounts owing by Borrower under the Environmental Indemnity, as more fully set forth in the Guaranty) or shall fail to furnish to Agent proof of payment of all premiums for such insurance within five (5) business days following Agent's written request for same (provided that Borrower has received proof of such payment at the time Agent requests such proof).
(i)    A transfer, encumbrance, lien, change of ownership or other action or occurrence prohibited by any Deed of Trust shall occur (and all notice and cure periods, if any, have elapsed).
(j)    Any Guarantor shall fail to perform or observe or comply with any covenant, agreement or obligation set forth in Section 13 of Guaranty applicable to such Guarantor. 
(k)    Any Borrower fails at any time to satisfy or otherwise comply with (i) the terms, conditions and covenants set forth in (i) Section 5.2 or (ii) Section 5.23.
(l)    If, at any time when Guarantors' combined Net Worth is less than $200,000,000, one or more final nonappealable uninsured judgments for the payment of money, in the aggregate exceeding $20,000,000, shall be entered against one or more Borrowers and/or one or more Guarantors, in each case by a court having jurisdiction, which are not discharged, vacated, bonded or stayed pending appeal within a period of ninety (90) days from the date of entry of such judgment(s); provided, however, that under no circumstances shall Borrower be in default under this Section 6.1.(l) if Borrower and Guarantor would comply with their respective financial covenants relating to the Loan following payment of such judgment.
6.2    Rights and Remedies.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, unless such Event of Default is subsequently waived in writing by Agent, Agent shall be entitled, at the option of Agent, to exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies, consecutively or simultaneously, and in any order: 
(a)    Lenders may make one (1) or more further advances of Loan proceeds, without liability to make any subsequent advances thereof.
(b)    Lenders may suspend their obligation to make advances under this Agreement, without notice to Borrower.

	
			
	 
	-41-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

(c)    Lenders may terminate their obligation to make advances under this Agreement, and Agent may declare the entire unpaid principal balance of the advances made under this Agreement to be immediately due and payable, together with accrued and unpaid interest on such advances, without notice to or demand on Borrower. 
(d)    Agent may exercise any or all remedies specified herein and in the other Loan Documents, including (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) the right to foreclose the Deeds of Trust (or any of them), and/or any other remedies which it may have therefor at law, in equity or under statute.
(e)    Agent may cure the Event of Default on behalf of Borrower, and, in doing so, may enter upon the Properties, and may expend such sums as it may deem desirable, including attorneys' fees, all of which shall be deemed to be advances hereunder, even though causing the Loan to exceed the face amount of the Note, shall bear interest at the Default Rate and shall be payable by Borrower on demand.
VII.    MISCELLANEOUS
7.1    Binding Effect; Waivers; Cumulative Rights and Remedies.  The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, legal representatives, successors and assigns; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor the proceeds of the Loan may be assigned by any Borrower voluntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Agent.  No delay on the part of Agent in exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder constitute such a waiver or exhaust the same, all of which shall be continuing.  The rights and remedies of Agent specified in this Agreement shall be in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other rights and remedies which Agent would otherwise have at law, in equity or by statute, and all such rights and remedies, together with Agent's rights and remedies under the other Loan Documents, are cumulative and may be exercised individually, concurrently, successively and in any order.
7.2    Survival.  All agreements, representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall survive the execution of this Agreement, the making of the advances by the Lenders, and the execution of the other Loan Documents, and shall continue until Agent on behalf of the Lenders receives payment in full of all indebtedness of Borrower incurred under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents.
7.3    Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.  This Agreement, the rights of the parties hereunder and the interpretation hereof shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California in all respects.

7.7    No Third Party Reliance.  No third party shall be entitled to rely upon this Agreement or to have any of the benefits of Agent's and the Lenders' interest hereunder, unless such third party is an express assignee of all or a portion of the interest of Agent and/or any Lender hereunder.
7.8    Time of the Essence.  Time is of the essence hereof with respect to the dates, terms and conditions of this Agreement.
7.9    Entire Agreement; No Oral Modifications.  This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents mentioned herein set forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the Loan and supersede all prior written or oral understandings and agreements with respect thereto.  No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless set forth in writing and signed by the parties hereto.
7.10    Captions.  The headings or captions of the Articles and Sections set forth herein are for convenience only, are not a part of this Agreement and are not to be considered in interpreting this Agreement.
7.11    Joint and Several Liability.  If Borrower consists of more than one (1) individual and/or entity, each of said individuals and/or entities shall be jointly and severally liable for each covenant, agreement, representation and warranty of Borrower hereunder.
7.12    Borrower's Relationship with Agent and the Lenders.  The relationship between Borrower, Agent and the Lenders created hereby and by the other Loan Documents shall be that of a borrower and a lender only, and in no event shall Agent and/or the Lenders be deemed to be a partner of, or a joint venturer with, any Borrower.
7.13    Swap Transactions.  Borrower may enter into one or more Swap Transactions and Swap Contracts with the Swap Counterparty on terms that are acceptable to Swap Counterparty in its sole discretion for the purpose of hedging and protecting against interest rate fluctuation risks with respect to the Loan.  Upon the Maturity Date, or such earlier date that the Loan becomes due by reason of an Event of Default, or otherwise, or upon payment of the Loan in full, Agent may direct that all existing Swap Contracts be broken and discontinued, and any and all breakage fees, discontinuance fees, settlement obligations, and any and all other sums, fees and costs with respect to such Swap Transactions and Swap Contracts shall become due and payable by Borrower in accordance with the respective Swap Contract, with the Borrower as the sole defaulting party as contemplated by the Swap Contract.  Unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing by Borrower, Agent and Swap Counterparty, Borrower's obligations (including any payment obligations) with respect to any such Swap Contracts provided by or entered into with Swap Counterparty (that is a Lender hereunder) with respect to the Loan shall be secured by the Deeds of Trust and all other collateral for the Loan, and any default by Borrower (after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period) under any such Swap Contracts shall, at the discretion of the Agent, constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement.  As additional security for the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby transfers, assigns, and conveys to Agent and grants to Agent a security interest in, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, all of Borrower's present and future rights, titles and interests, but not its obligations, duties or liabilities for any breach, in, under and to all Swap Contracts and all 

	
			
	 
	-44-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

Swap Transactions, any and all amounts received by Borrower in connection therewith or to which Borrower is entitled thereunder, and all proceeds of the foregoing. At Agent's option, if an Event of Default exists, all net amounts payable to Borrower under the Swap Contract shall be paid to Agent and shall be applied to pay interest or other amounts under the Loan.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the terms of the Swap Contract, Borrower shall not modify or terminate the Swap Contract without the prior written consent of Agent.
Additionally, subject to the terms of the Swap Contract, if there is an uncured default under any Swap Contract, if an Event of Default exists, Agent shall have the right at any time (but shall have no obligation) to take in its name or in the name of Borrower (or its Affiliate) such action as Agent may at any time determine to be necessary or advisable to cure any uncured default under any Swap Contract or to protect the rights of Borrower (or its Affiliate) or Swap Counterparty thereunder; provided, however, that before the occurrence of an Event of Default, Agent shall give prior written notice to Borrower before taking any such action.  For this purpose, Borrower hereby constitutes Agent its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution, which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable by Borrower in any manner, or for any reason, to exercise, at the election of Agent and so long as an Event of Default exists, any and all rights and remedies of Borrower (or its Affiliate) under the Swap Contract, including making any payments thereunder and consummating any transactions contemplated thereby, and to take any action that Agent may deem proper in order to collect, assert or enforce any claim, right or title, in and to the Swap Contract hereby assigned and conveyed, from time to time to institute and prosecute in the name and at the expense of Borrower, or otherwise, but for the benefit of Agent, any and all proceedings at law, in equity, or otherwise, that Agent may deem proper in order to collect, assert or enforce any claim, right or title, of any kind, in and to the Swap Contract hereby assigned and conveyed, or intended so to be, and to defend and compromise, at the election of Agent, any and all actions, suits or proceedings with respect to the Swap Contract, and generally to do all and any such action in relation thereto as Agent shall deem advisable. Agent shall not incur any liability if any action so taken by Agent or on its behalf shall prove to be inadequate or invalid. Borrower expressly understands and agrees that Agent is not hereby assuming any duties or obligations of Borrower (or its Affiliate) to make payments to Swap Counterparty under any Swap Contract or under any other Loan Document. Such payment duties and obligations remain the responsibility of Borrower (or its Affiliate) notwithstanding any language in this Agreement.  In no event shall any terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.13 be deemed to diminish or otherwise restrict any rights of a Swap Counterparty under a Swap Contract.
7.14    Automatic Deduction and Credit.  So long as Agent is the sole Lender hereunder, at Agent's option, payments owed by Agent as Swap Counterparty under any Swap Contract may be credited against accrued interest and other payments owed by Borrower under the Loan provided Agent will provide written notice to Borrower of any such credit.  Agent will credit the applicable amounts on the dates the foregoing payments become due; provided, however, that if a due date does not fall on a Business Day, Agent will credit the applicable amounts on the first Business Day following such due date.
7.15    Borrower Waiver.  In the event that, at any time, any surety exists that is liable upon only a portion of Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents and Borrower provides partial satisfaction of any such obligation(s), Borrower hereby waives any right it would 

	
			
	 
	-45-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

otherwise have under applicable law, if any, or otherwise to designate the portion of the obligation to be satisfied.  The designation of the portion of the obligation to be satisfied shall, to the extent not expressly made by the terms of the Loan Documents, be made by Agent rather than by Borrower.
7.16    Reduction of Committed Amount.  Provided (a) no Draw Request is pending that would result in the Principal Balance exceeding the sum of the Term Commitment and the available proposed reduced Revolving Commitment, and (b) that immediately after such reduction the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans is less than or equal to the reduced Revolving Commitment as determined by Agent indicated in any such notice (which for the purposes of this Section shall include any amounts requested under a pending Draw Request), Borrower may permanently reduce the available Revolving Commitment of the Loan (without the payment of any prepayment fee, other than break funding, including any sums owing under Section 1.10 hereof, and any charges relating to early termination of any Swap Contracts), by giving Agent irrevocable notice of such reduction (including the new maximum Revolving Commitment) to Agent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the indicated effective date of the reduction.  Each such reduction shall (a) be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 (and in increments of $500,000 thereafter), (b) in no event reduce the Committed Amount below the amount of the Term Commitment (unless Agent otherwise agrees in writing) and (c) permanently reduce the maximum Revolving Commitment of the Loan available to Borrower.  Borrower may not make more than one reduction election during each calendar month.  For purposes of clarification, Borrower may not reduce the amount of the Term Commitment except as expressly provided in Section 1.5 above.
7.17    USA Patriot Act Notice.  The USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56) and federal regulations issued with respect thereto require all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record certain information that identifies individuals or business entities which open an "account" with such financial institution.  Consequently, Agent and/or Lenders) may from time-to-time request in writing, and each Borrower shall provide to Agent and/or Lenders, such Borrower's name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be reasonably necessary for Agent and/or Lenders to comply with federal law.  An "account" for this purpose may include, without limitation, a deposit account, cash management service, a transaction or asset account, a credit account, a loan or other extension of credit, and/or other financial services product.
7.18    Statute of Frauds.  Lender and Borrower take notice of and covenant and agree that no agreement involving a loan of more than $50,000 in value is enforceable unless the agreement is in writing and signed by the party to be bound or by that party's authorized representative.  Thus, an agreement or commitment to make such a loan must be in writing and signed by the proposed lender or it will not be enforceable.  The rights and obligations of Borrower, Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents shall be determined solely from the Loan Documents, and any prior oral agreements between the Borrower, Agent and Lenders relating to the Loan are superseded by and merged into the Loan Documents.
7.19    Joint Borrower Provisions.  Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it shall be jointly and severally liable for the Loan and all other Obligations arising under this

Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents.  In furtherance thereof, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees as follows:
(a)    For the purpose of implementing the joint borrower provisions of the Loan Documents, each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints each other Borrower as its agent and attorney-in-fact for all purposes of the Loan Documents, including the giving and receiving of notices and other communications.
(b)    To induce the Lenders to make the Loan, and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Agent and Lenders against, and hold the Agent and Lenders harmless from, any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and/or claims of damage or injury asserted against Agent and/or Lenders by any Borrower or by any other Person arising from or incurred by reason of (i) reliance by the Agent and/or Lenders on any requests or instructions from any Borrower, or (ii) any other action taken by Agent and/or Lenders in good faith with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
(c)    Each Borrower acknowledges that the liens and security interests created or granted herein and by the other Loan Documents will secure Obligations of all Borrowers under the Loan Documents and, in full recognition of that fact, each Borrower consents and agrees that the Agent and/or Lenders may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or security hereof or of any other Loan Document:

(8)    settle, release on terms satisfactory to Agent or by operation of applicable laws or otherwise liquidate or enforce any Obligations and any security therefor or guaranty thereof in any manner, consent to the transfer of any such security and bid and purchase at any sale; and consent to the merger, change or any other restructuring or termination of the corporate existence of any Borrower or any other Person, and correspondingly restructure the obligations of such Borrower or other Person, and any such merger, change, restructuring or termination shall not affect the liability of any Borrower or the continuing existence of any lien or security interest hereunder, under any other Loan Document to which any Borrower is a party or the enforceability hereof or thereof with respect to all or any part of the Obligations.
(d)    Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Agent may enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents independently as to each Borrower and independently of any other remedy or security Agent and/or Lenders at any time may have or hold in connection with the Obligations, and in collecting on the Loan it shall not be necessary for Agent to marshal assets in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or to proceed upon or against and/or exhaust any other security or remedy before proceeding to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Each Borrower expressly waives any right to require Agent and/or Lenders, in connection with Agent and/or Lender's efforts to obtain repayment of the Loan and other Obligations, to marshal assets in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against any other Person or any collateral provided by any other Person, and agrees that Agent and/or Lenders may proceed against any Persons and/or collateral in such order as it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion in connection with Agent's efforts to obtain repayment of the Loan and other Obligations.  Agent may file a separate action or actions against each Borrower to enforce the Obligations, whether action is brought or prosecuted with respect to any other security or against any other Person, or whether any other Person is joined in any such action or actions.  Each Borrower agrees that Agent, Lenders, each Borrower and/or any other Person may deal with each other in connection with the Obligations or otherwise, or alter any contracts or agreements now or hereafter existing between any of them, in any manner whatsoever, all without in any way altering or affecting the security of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.  The rights of Agent and/or Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be reinstated and revived, and the enforceability of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue, with respect to any amount at any time paid on account of the Obligations which thereafter shall be required to be restored or returned by Agent and/or Lenders as a result of the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of any Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid.  The enforceability of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents at all times shall remain effective even though the any or all Obligations, or any other security or guaranty therefor, may be or hereafter may become invalid or otherwise unenforceable as against any Borrower or any other Person and whether or not any Borrower or any other Person shall have any personal liability with respect thereto.  Each Borrower expressly waives any and all defenses to the enforcement of its obligations under the Loan Documents now or hereafter arising or asserted by reason of (i) any disability or other defense of any Borrower or any other Person with respect to the Obligations, (ii) the unenforceability or invalidity of any security or guaranty for the Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure of priority of any security for the Obligations, (iii) the cessation for any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Borrower or any other Person (other than by reason of the full and final payment and performance of all Obligations), (iv) any failure of Agent and/or Lenders to marshal assets in favor of any of the 

	
			
	 
	-48-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

Borrowers or any other Person, (v) any failure of Agent and/or Lenders to give notice of sale or other disposition of any Collateral for the Obligations to any Borrower or to any other Person or any defect in any notice that may be given in connection with any such sale or disposition, (vi) any failure of Agent and/or Lenders to comply in any non‐material respect with applicable laws in connection with the sale or other disposition of any Collateral or other security for any Obligation, (vii) any act or omission of Agent and/or Lenders or others that directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of any Borrower or of any other Person or of any of the Obligations or any other security or guaranty therefor by operation of law or otherwise, (viii) any law which provides that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety's or guarantor's obligation in proportion to the principal obligation, (ix) any failure of Agent and/or Lenders to file or enforce a claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any Person, (x) the election by Agent, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, of the application or non‐application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, (xi) any extension of credit or the grant of any lien under Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code except to extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, (xii) any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, (xiii) any agreement or stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy proceeding of any Person, (xiv) the avoidance of any lien or security interest in favor of Agent securing the Obligations for any reason, or (xv) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation or dissolution proceeding commenced by or against any Person, including any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any of the Obligations (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such proceeding.  Without in any way limiting the foregoing, with respect to the Loan Documents and the Obligations, each Borrower: (A) waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Agent, even though that election of remedies, such as non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for Borrowers' obligations, has destroyed each of their rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the other by the operation of Section 580(d) of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise; and (B) waives any right to a fair value hearing or similar proceeding following a nonjudicial foreclosure of the Obligations, whether arising under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580a or otherwise.
(e)    The Borrowers represent and warrant to Agent and Lenders that they have established adequate means of obtaining from each other, on a continuing basis, financial and other information pertaining to their respective businesses, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) and their respective properties, and each now is and hereafter will be completely familiar with the businesses, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of the other and their respective properties.  Each Borrower hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of Agent and/or Lenders to disclose to such Borrower any matter, fact or thing related to the businesses, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of  the other Borrowers or the other Borrowers' properties, whether now known or hereafter known by Agent and/or Lenders during the life of this Agreement.  With respect to any of the Obligations, the Agent and/or Lenders need not inquire into the powers of any Borrower or the officers, employees or other Persons acting or purporting to act on such Borrower's behalf.

	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

(f)    Without limiting the foregoing, or anything else contained in this Agreement, each Borrower waives all rights and defenses that it may have because the Obligations are secured by real property.  This means, among other things:
(1)    Agent and/or Lenders may collect on the Obligations from any Borrower without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the other Borrowers; and
(2)    If Agent forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any Borrower for the Obligations:  (A) the amount of the indebtedness owed by the other Borrowers 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; and (B) Agent may collect from any Borrower even if Agent, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right any Borrower may have to collect from the other Borrowers.
(g)    This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses each Borrower may have because the Obligations are secured by real property.  These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Sections 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.  Each Borrower expressly waives any right to receive notice of any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale of any real property collateral provided by the other Borrower to secure the Obligations and failure to receive any such notice shall not impair or affect such Borrower's obligations hereunder or the enforceability of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any liens created or granted hereby or thereby.
(h)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere contained herein or in any other Loan Document to which any Borrower is a party, with respect to the Loan and all other Obligations, each Borrower hereby waives with respect to the other Borrowers and their successors and assigns (including any surety) and any other Person any and all rights at law or in equity, to subrogation, to reimbursement, to exoneration, to contribution, to setoff, to any other rights and defenses available to it by reason of California Civil Code Sections 2787 and 2855, inclusive, or to any other rights that could accrue to a surety against a principal, to a guarantor against a maker or obligor, to an accommodation party against the party accommodated, or to a holder or transferee against a maker and which each of them may have or hereafter acquire against the other or any other Person in connection with or as a result of such Borrower's execution, delivery and/or performance of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party until the Obligations are paid and performed in full.  Each Borrower agrees that it shall not have or assert any such rights against any other Borrower or any other Borrower's successors and assigns or any other Person (including any surety), either directly or as an attempted setoff to any action commenced against such Borrower by any other Borrower (as borrower or in any other capacity) or any other Person until the all Obligations are paid and performed in full.  Each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is intended to benefit Agent and Lenders and shall not limit or otherwise affect any Borrower's liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party, or the enforceability hereof or thereof.

(i)    Each Borrower warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth herein is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which each otherwise may have against the other, against Agent and Lenders or others, or against any collateral.  If any of the waivers or consents herein are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waivers and consents shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by law.
7.20    Possible Increase in the Committed Amount.  As of the Closing Date, the maximum Committed Amount shall be $100,000,000.  However, subsequent to the Closing Date Borrower shall have the option to increase the Committed Amount based, in part, on the addition of one or more Additional Properties in accordance with Section 7.21 to secure the Loan (such option shall be referred to herein as the "Accordion Option"), subject to the following:  (a) one or more new lenders shall have been added to this Agreement (each, a "New Lender") and/or one or more existing Lenders (each, an "Additionally Committed Lender"), in their sole and absolute discretion, shall have elected to increase their individual commitments, so that the Committed Amount may be increased, provided that each New Lender and/or Additionally Committed Lender shall be approved by Agent and Borrower (but not the other Lenders), (b) the Committed Amount may be increased up to a maximum of $200,000,000, (c) unless Agent otherwise consents, the allocation of the increased Committed Amount between the Revolving Commitment and the Term Commitment shall be sixty percent (60%) to the Revolving Commitment and forty percent (40%) to the Term Commitment, (d) each exercise of the Accordion Option shall be in an amount not less than $20,000,000, (e) the Accordion Option may be exercised a maximum of three (3) times, and (f) Borrower's right to exercise the Accordion Option shall terminate on November 1, 2013 (and all conditions to exercising such option must have been satisfied as of such date).  Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its consent to any such increase in the Committed Amount shall not be required and additional Lenders may be added to this Agreement, and any Additionally Committed Lenders under this Agreement may increase their individual commitments, without the consent or agreement of the other Lenders (provided, however, that no Lender's individual commitment may be increased without such Lender's consent), so long as Agent and Borrower have consented in writing to any New Lenders or the increase in the commitment of any Additionally Committed Lender, as applicable.
The addition of any New Lender to this Agreement, and/or the increase in the commitment of any Additionally Committed Lender, shall be effective upon the satisfaction of the following:
(a)    Agent and Borrower shall have approved such New Lender and/or such increase in the commitment of any Additionally Committed Lender, as applicable; and Agent shall have sent written notice to all Lenders of such New Lender and its commitment amount and/or the amount of the increase in the commitment of any Additionally Committed Lender (each, an "Accordion Notice").
(b)    Agent shall have calculated each Lender's new Commitment Percentage, based on each Lender's commitment and the new Committed Amount, and Agent shall have determined the portion of the Term Commitment (and outstanding Term Loan) and the 

	
			
	 
	-51-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

Revolving Commitment and (and outstanding Revolving Loans) allocable to each Lender based on such Lender's new Commitment Percentage. 
(c)    Borrower shall have executed and delivered to Agent a new Note with respect to any New Lender in the amount of such New Lender's commitment; or with respect to an increase in the Commitment of an Additionally Committed Lender, Borrower shall have executed a replacement Note for such Additionally Committed Lender in an amount equal to such Additionally Committed Lender's increased commitment amount.
(d)    The Lenders shall execute such Assignment and Assumption Agreements as Agent shall require to evidence each New Lender's acquisition of its Commitment Percentage of the Term Commitment, Revolving Commitment and Loan Documents, and to evidence each Additionally Committed Lender's increased commitment amount.  Alternatively (or in addition), at Agent's option each New Lender shall acknowledge in writing (in a form reasonably satisfactory to Agent) that it is assuming the rights and obligations of a "Lender" under this Agreement, and if required by Agent shall execute a copy of this Agreement.  Each New Lender and/or each Additionally Committed Lender shall pay to the other existing Lenders a portion of the then outstanding Term Loan and Revolving Loans so that upon the closing of the exercise of the Accordion Option and increase in the Committed Amount, each Lender shall have owing to it its Commitment Percentage of the then outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan and the Revolving Loans (as set forth in the revised Exhibit I to be delivered in accordance with subparagraph (e) below).  For the avoidance of doubt, each New Lender must acquire the same percentage (i.e., its Commitment Percentage) of the Term Loan and the Revolving Loans, and each Additionally Committed Lender must increase its commitment with respect to the Term Loan and the Revolving Loans by the same percentage.
(e)    Agent shall have prepared an updated Exhibit I, revised to reflect each Lender's the Commitment Percentage, commitment amount and share of the Term Commitment and Revolving Commitment, which updated Exhibit I shall be delivered to the Lenders with the Accordion Notice.
(f)    Guarantors shall have executed and delivered to Agent such reaffirmations of their Guaranty and acknowledgment of their increased liability thereunder as Agent shall reasonably require; provided, however, that with the exception of the Guarantors' increased liability due to the increase in the Committed Amount, Guarantors' liability shall remain unmodified as set forth in the Guaranty.
(g)    Borrower shall have paid the applicable fees set forth in the Fee Letter.
(h)    Borrower, each New Lender and each Additionally Committed Lender shall execute and deliver to Agent such additional documents as Agent and its legal counsel shall reasonably require to carry out the intent of this Section 7.20.
7.21    Additional Property Collateral.  During the term of the Loan, Borrower shall have the option of adding new properties to secure the Loan and/or to increase the Committed Amount, subject to satisfaction of all of the following conditions precedent with respect to each such additional property (each, an "Additional Property") (and each item delivered below shall

	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

the definition of "Deed of Trust" as set forth is this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents, (iii) New Borrower shall be included in the definition of "Borrower" set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) the Replacement Exhibits shall be attached to this Agreement in substitution of the then existing corresponding exhibits and shall thereafter be deemed to replace such exhibits, and (v) all of the foregoing requirements set forth in Sections 7.21(a) through (bb), shall be deemed satisfied by New Borrower, Borrower and Guarantor, as to such Additional Property, except as reasonably reserved or specified by Agent in writing.
7.22    Releases of Properties.  Except as expressly set forth below in this Section 7.22, Agent shall have no obligation to release any of the Properties until the Loan and all other Obligations have been paid in full and all obligations of Agent and Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents have terminated.  At any time after at least four (4) Properties are simultaneously securing the Loan (but at no time prior thereto unless Agent, in its sole discretion, has consented thereto), Borrower shall be entitled to obtain the release of a Property (each, a "Release Property") from the lien of the Loan Documents, provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a)    Borrower shall have submitted to Agent a written request for such release at least twenty (20) days prior to the proposed release date, together with copies of any documents which Borrower requests Agent to execute in connection with such proposed release.
(b)    No Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and no event shall have occurred and be continuing that with the giving of notice and/or the lapse of time would constitute an Event of Default.
(c)    After giving effect to the proposed release, at least two (2) Properties remain as security for the Loan.
(d)    Borrower shall have paid to Agent, for application to the Principal Balance, an amount equal to the amount, if any, by which the Principal Balance exceeds the then current Availability Amount.  In calculating the Availability Amount, the Borrowing Base Amount shall be determined based only on the Properties remaining after the proposed release (i.e., without regard to the Release Property).
(e)    Borrower shall have provided Agent with such certifications from the Guarantor(s) that, after giving effect to the proposed release, Guarantor(s) shall be in compliance with their financial covenants under the Guaranty.
(f)    [Intentionally Deleted]
(g)    Borrower shall provide to Agent at Borrower's sole cost and expense such title insurance endorsements to the Title Policies for the remaining Deeds of Trust as Agent shall reasonably request (including, without limitation, CLTA Form 111 Endorsements (or its equivalent), to the extent available and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, which shall insure that after such release, each remaining Deed of Trust shall continue as a valid first position lien against the Property encumbered thereby, subject only to such new title exceptions as Agent shall approve in writing.

	
			
	 
	-57-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

(h)    Borrower shall pay, or caused to be paid, to Agent all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such release, including without limitation all breakage fees, recording fees, transfer and other taxes, trustee's fees, reasonable attorneys' fees, appraisal fees, escrow fees, and fees for title insurance and similar charges.
Following the release of any Property, such Release Property shall no longer be included in the definition of "Property" except with respect to any indemnities and other provisions of the Loan Documents that expressly survive repayment of the Loan. 
7.23    Collateral Documents.  If any Deed of Trust shall for any reason (other than pursuant to the terms thereof) cease to create a valid lien and security interest in the collateral purported to be covered thereby or such lien or security interest shall for any reason cease to be a perfected and first priority lien and security interest subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, and any such defect or infirmity is not cured to Agent's reasonable satisfaction within ninety (90) days of demand by Agent, the Property encumbered by such Deed of Trust shall immediately (following the expiration of such ninety (90) day cure period) cease to be included in the calculation of Borrowing Base Value and Borrowing Base Amount, and Borrower shall repay to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders, within ten (10) days of demand by Agent, any amounts by which the total outstanding Obligations exceed the Availability Amount.
7.24    Intentionally Deleted.  
7.25    Limited Recourse Provision.  Except as to Guarantor as set forth in the Guaranty, Agent and Lenders shall have no recourse against, nor shall there be any personal liability to, the members of Borrower, or to any shareholders, members, partners, beneficial interest holders or any other entity or person in the ownership (directly or indirectly) of Borrower (except for the Guarantor as provided in the Guaranty, but including KBSIII REIT ACQUISITION I, LLC, KBSIII REIT ACQUISITION II, LLC, KBSIII REIT ACQUISITION IV, LLC, KBS Limited Partnership III or KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc.) with respect to the obligations of Borrower and Guarantor under the Loan.  For purposes of clarification, in no event shall the above language limit, reduce or otherwise affect any Borrower's liability or obligations under the Loan Documents, Guarantor's liability or obligations under the Guaranty or Agent's right to exercise any rights or remedies against any collateral securing the Loan.
7.26    Subdivision and Reconveyance of Reconveyed Portion.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, or anything to the contrary herein, Agent and Lenders hereby acknowledge that KBSIII Domain Gateway, LLC ("Domain Borrower") has entered into a certain ground lease dated as of September 29, 2011, with Domain Gateway I, L.P., a Texas limited partnership ("Seller"), a copy of which has been provided to Agent (the "Subdivision Ground Lease").  Pursuant to the Subdivision Ground Lease, Domain Borrower has agreed to reconvey the portion of the KBS Domain Gateway Property to Seller, which is more particularly described as Lot 4A (consisting of approximately 1.241 acres) on Exhibit M attached hereto (the "Reconveyed Portion"), subject to certain conditions more specifically described in the Subdivision Ground Lease.  In furtherance of the foregoing, Agent and Lenders hereby agree to reconvey, without consideration, the Reconveyed Portion in connection with the transfer thereof from Domain Borrower to Seller provided that Agent shall have received any and all escrow, closing and 

	
			
	 
	-58-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

recording costs, the costs of preparing and delivering such partial reconveyance and the cost of any title insurance endorsements available in the State of Texas and reasonably requested by Agent. 
7.27    Release of a Borrower.  As to any Release Property released from the lien of a Deed of Trust pursuant to the terms of Section 7.22 hereinabove, the Borrower owning such Release Property (a "Release Borrower") shall be automatically released from any and all obligations and liabilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (excepting, however, any obligations that may arise under the Environmental Indemnity) upon the consummation of the release of such Release Property, as evidenced by a written release from Agent to be delivered concurrently with the consummation of such release (and Agent hereby agrees to deliver such written release to such Release Borrower upon satisfaction of all release conditions set forth in Section 7.22) provided that such Release Borrower shall also be automatically released from any and all of its obligations under the Environmental Indemnity if, at the time of such release, (i) such Release Borrower shall have delivered to Agent a current environmental site assessment for such Release Property and such report does not disclose the existence of any violation of any Environmental Regulation (as defined in the Environmental Indemnity) or any Environmental Claims (as defined in the Environmental Indemnity) applicable to such Release Property, which reports shall be dated, or last updated, to a date which is no more than thirty days earlier than the date on which the Deed of Trust securing such Release Property is discharged or released of record, (ii) no Environmental Claim shall be pending or threatened in writing with respect to such Release Property, and (iii) Borrower maintains for such Release Property an environmental insurance policy substantially in the form of the Environmental Insurance Policy approved by Agent when such Release Property was added as collateral for the Loan, which policy shall have a term of no less than one year after the date of the release of such Release Policy and which policy (or endorsement thereto) shall name Agent as an additional insured.  Additionally, notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of a Release Borrower, to the extent that any payment made by such Release Borrower is rescinded or otherwise must be returned by Agent, any Lender or any other Person, such Release Borrower's liability shall be reinstated (solely to the extent rescinded or returned plus any amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.1 of this Loan Agreement), all as though such payment had not occurred.  For purposes of clarification, in no event shall the release of a Release Borrower under this Section 7.27 release any other Borrower or Guarantor from any obligations owing under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, such parties continuing indemnity obligations under the Environmental Indemnity relating to a Release Property following the release of a Release Borrower).  
VIII.    AGENCY PROVISIONS
8.1    Agency.
(a)    Appointment and Authorization.  Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes Agent to act as sole administrative agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, authorizes and directs Agent to enter into the Loan Documents other than this Agreement for the benefit of the Lenders, and authorizes the Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the Loan Documents and to exercise such powers as are set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably 

	
			
	 
	-59-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

incidental thereto.  In furtherance thereof, Lenders hereby ratify the execution and delivery by Agent of this Agreement, the acceptance by Agent of all of the other Loan Documents and the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents.  The Agent hereby accepts such appointment as administrative agent.  Agent shall exercise all rights and powers of Agent under this Agreement, including the administration of the Loan and disbursement of Advances, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.  The Borrower, without further inquiry or investigation, shall, and is hereby authorized by the Lenders to, assume that all actions taken by the Agent hereunder and in connection with or under the Loan Documents are duly authorized by the Lenders and Borrower shall be entitled to rely on Agent's acknowledgment of consent and approvals when required under the Loan.
(b)    Non‐Liability of Agent and Indemnity.
(1)    Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents.  Agent shall administer the Loan in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement in the same manner as it customarily does for similar loans for its own account.  The duties of the Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any Loan Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein.  In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, neither Agent nor any of its respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or not taken by them under or in connection with this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents.  In this regard, Agent may consult with independent legal counsel, accountants and other professionals or experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it or them in good faith in accordance with the advice of such legal counsel, accountants or other professionals or experts.  In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any person to whom payment was due, but not made, shall be to recover from the recipients of such payments any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to have been entitled.
(2)    In the event the Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrower, within ten (10) Business Days of demand therefor by Agent, each Lender will reimburse and indemnify the Agent, and its directors, officers, agents and employees, in proportion to its respective Commitment Percentage of the Loan (or commitment), for and against any claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Agent, or its directors, officers, agents, or employees in performing its duties hereunder or under any Loan Document, except for claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred solely due to the Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 8.1(b) shall survive the payment in full of all obligations of Borrower and the termination of this Agreement.

	
			
	 
	-60-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

8.2    Resignation of Agent; Removal.
(a)    Except as expressly provided below, U.S. Bank shall remain the Agent and shall not resign as Agent.  In the event of Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct, Agent may be removed pursuant to the unanimous approval of all Lenders by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice to Agent and Borrower; provided, however, for purposes of calculating such unanimous approval in this context, Agent shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender and its Commitment Percentage shall therefore be disregarded and excluded for voting purposes only.
(b)    In the case of any of the events described in Section 8.2(a), (1) the Majority Lenders shall appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders (which appointment shall require Borrower's written consent so long as no Event of Default exists, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) so long as such successor meets the requirements described in Sections 8.9(a)(2) and 8.9(a)(3) hereof; (2) upon a successor's acceptance of appointment (and assumption of the Agent's obligations hereunder arising after the date of such appointment), the successor will thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning or removed Agent; and (3) upon the effectiveness of any removal, the removed Agent will thereupon be discharged from the duties and obligations of Agent which thereafter arise under this Agreement.
8.3    Administration.
(a)    Expenses.  Each Lender shall reimburse the Agent for its Commitment Percentage of any expenses with respect to the administration, enforcement or collection of the Loan which are not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to and within the period required by the Loan Documents, or if not specified in the Loan Documents, on the date of demand therefor made by the Agent.  The Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to incur such expenditures prior to reimbursement therefor by the Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary in this Article 8 or elsewhere in this Loan Agreement, Borrower shall have no obligation to pay, or reimburse for any costs or expenses incurred by Lenders (other than Agent) in connection with this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or arising out of the exercise of remedies under any of the Loan Documents.
(b)    Documents; Information; Inspection.  Except for the Note executed in favor of each Lender and for Loan Documents sent for filing or recording (which are not returned following recording), Agent shall hold and maintain a duplicate set of all original Loan Documents.  The Agent shall promptly deliver to each Lender a copy or counterpart of execution copy of each Loan Document.  Agent shall promptly forward to each Lender a copy of each financial statement of Borrower or rent roll or other financial statement for the Property received from Borrower.  Agent shall promptly forward to such Lender each financial statement of Borrower and Guarantor received by Agent.  The Lenders may, upon reasonable prior notice and during the Agent's normal business hours, inspect and make copies of such books and records of Agent that relate to this Loan.

	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

8.4    Actions by Agent; Required Consents.
(a)    Except as specified below, Agent shall exercise its sole discretion to act or not to act under the Loan Documents.  Such discretion may be exercised with respect to the granting of approvals, consents, and modifications under the Loan Documents and with respect to the exercise or refraining from exercise of rights under the Loan Documents.
(b)    Notwithstanding Section 8.4(a), the following matters shall require the prior consent of all of the Lenders:
(1)    any reduction (other than by operation of the Loan Documents) in the interest rate under the Loan;
(2)    any reduction in the amount of any payment of any fees payable to Lenders;
(3)    any change (other than by operation of the Loan Documents) in the principal amount or Maturity Date of the Loan or in the conditions for any extension of the Maturity Date;
(4)    any release, termination, modification or amendment of the Guaranty or any indemnity provided in the Loan Documents (except to the extent expressly provided for in the Loan Documents);
(5)    any forgiveness of principal, interest or other amounts payable under the Loan (other than late fees) or any extension of time for payment of principal or interest;
(6)    any increase in the Committed Amount (except to the extent expressly provided for in the Loan Documents);
(7)    any release of Borrower or Guarantor (except to the extent expressly provided for in the Loan Documents);
(8)    acceptance and approval of a new Borrower;
(9)    any amendment to this Section 8.4(b);
(10)    any amendment to the definition of Majority Lenders;
(11)    any release of any material portion of the collateral securing the Loan (except to the extent expressly provided for in the Loan Documents).
(c)    Notwithstanding Section 8.4(a) or Section 8.4(b), the prior consent of the Majority Lenders shall be required for the acceleration of any indebtedness under the Loan Documents, or the pursuit of remedies against the Borrower or Guarantor; provided, however, if the Majority Lenders cannot agree on a course of action within sixty (60) days following notice from Agent, Agent may, without the consent of the Majority Lenders, accelerate the Loan and 

	
			
	 
	-62-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

exercise any and all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and applicable law (and in equity) that Agent in its sole discretion deems appropriate and in the best interests of the Lenders.
(d)    In case one or more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the Loan shall have occurred, the Agent shall, if (1) so requested by the Majority Lenders and (2) the Lenders have provided to the Agent such additional indemnities and assurances against expenses and liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, proceed to enforce the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and exercise all or any such other legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have in respect of enforcement of the Lenders' rights against the Borrower and the Guarantor under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  The Majority Lenders may direct the Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such enforcement, the Lenders (including any Lender which is not one of the Majority Lenders so directing the Agent in writing) hereby agreeing to ratably and severally indemnify and hold the Agent harmless from all liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, provided that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Agent reasonably believes the Agent's compliance with such direction to be unlawful or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction.  Lenders also agree, ratably and severally, to indemnify and hold the Agent harmless from all liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted to be taken under Section 8.4(c) above should the Majority Lenders not be able to agree upon a course of action within the time period specified therein, and Agent exercises any and all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and applicable law (or in equity) that Agent in its sole discretion deems appropriate and in the best interests of the Lenders under the circumstances.
8.5    Payments.
(a)    Interest Rates and Disbursement Matters.  Lenders and Agent specifically agree to the following operational and administrative procedures as between themselves:
(1)    Agent shall notify each Lender by telephone or facsimile of the LIBOR Rate two (2) Business Days prior to the date on which the LIBOR Rate shall be effective.  Agent shall notify each Lender by telephone or facsimile of its Commitment Percentage of a proposed Advance of the Loan and the date of such disbursement two (2) Business Days prior to such disbursement with respect to disbursements which are to bear interest at the LIBOR Rate, such notice to be delivered by facsimile.  Each Lender shall deposit by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Agent's account as specified on Exhibit H hereto the amount of such Commitment Percentage no later than 10:00 a.m. (California time) on the date of such disbursement.
Unless Agent shall have been notified by any Lender not later than the close of business (California time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the date for funding in respect of any Advance that such Lender does not intend to make available to Agent such Lender's Commitment Percentage of such Advance, Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Agent.  In any case where a Lender does not for any reason 

	
			
	 
	-63-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

make available to Agent such Lender's Commitment Percentage of such Advance, Agent, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, fund to Borrower such Lender's Commitment Percentage of such Advance.  If the amount so funded by Agent is not in fact made available to Agent by the responsible Lender, then such Lender hereby assigns to Agent any payments received by Agent from Borrower in repayment of such amount, together with interest thereon at the rate applicable to such Advance.
(2)    If any Lender fails to deliver funds to Agent for a disbursement by the time required by subsection (1) above, such Lender shall pay to Agent interest on such funds at the Federal Funds Rate, for each day (or portion thereof) until such funds are delivered.  Any interest paid pursuant to this section shall be divided among the Lenders which funded the applicable disbursement.
(3)    Agent shall wire transfer to each Lender at such Lender's account as designated on Exhibit H hereto (or otherwise specified by each Lender) its Commitment Percentage of any payments (to the extent payable pursuant to Section 8.5(b)) within one (1) Business Day of Agent's receipt of such payment.  Agent shall pay to the Lenders interest thereon, at the Federal Funds Rate from the Business Day following receipt of such funds by Agent until such funds are paid in immediately available funds to the Lender.
(4)    Any Lender desiring to make a claim for costs or taxes payable by Borrower shall deliver a certificate to Agent setting forth the basis and calculation thereof and the Agent shall forward such certificate to the Borrower.  Except as provided in the Loan Documents, each Lender shall be responsible for any taxes payable in respect of amounts paid hereunder.  All payments made by Agent to Lenders shall be made without withholding for taxes, charges, or levies, except as may be required by law.  Each Lender shall on demand from Agent provide completed and signed copies of certificates required to show exemption of such Lender from United States withholding taxes.
(b)    Application of Recoveries.  Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 8.7 hereof, all payments and proceeds received by Agent in connection with the Loan and the Note and all proceeds from the liquidation of collateral, if any, and from any enforcement action (or other realization), from any source related to the Loan, shall be applied in the following order of priority (unless Agent otherwise agrees in writing, or, during the existence and continuance of an Event of Default, unless Agent and all of the Lenders otherwise agree in writing):
(1)    to the reimbursement of any costs incurred by the Agent to administer, enforce, collect or deal with the Loan (including payments made pursuant to Sections 8.5(a)(2) and (3) hereof (or to reimbursement of the Lenders to the extent such costs have been paid by the Lenders);
(2)    to the repayment of any Protective Advances (to the extent not paid pursuant to clause (1) above);
(3)    to the payment of all interest (including interest calculated at the Default Rate) due and payable on each Note and to the payment of all amounts owing to Swap 

	
			
	 
	-64-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

Counterparty under all Swap Contracts that are secured by the Deeds of Trust (which shall be paid parri passu with interest);
(4)    to the payment of fees payable under the Loan Documents; 
(5)    to the payment of principal of each Note; and 
(6)    to the payment of any other amounts owing under the Loan Documents.
(c)    Excess Payments.  If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set‐off or otherwise) on account of its interest in the Loan in excess of its Commitment Percentage in the Loan, such Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Lenders with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise, as shall result in each Lender receiving in respect of the Note held by it its proportionate payment as contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered by the Borrower or other party entitled thereto through legal action or otherwise, each Lender shall reimburse the party returning such excess payment in an amount equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the excess payment.
(d)    Liability for Advances.  If in the reasonable opinion of the Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve it in material liability, it may refrain from making distribution until its right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that the Agent shall invest any such undistributed amounts in overnight obligations on behalf of the Lenders and interest thereon shall be paid pro rata to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages.  If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.
8.6    Management of Acquired Collateral.  If the Majority Lenders or Agent elect to take title to any of the Properties, whether by the exercise of remedies under the Loan Documents or by a consensual agreement with Borrower or otherwise, Agent shall form a limited liability company (the "Ownership LLC") to hold such ownership interest in the Properties.  The manager of the Ownership LLC shall be a wholly owned subsidiary of Agent (the "Manager").  The member interests in the Ownership LLC shall be held by Lenders (or their designees or affiliates) in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (the "Members").  The operating agreement for the Ownership LLC shall have terms and provisions similar to this Agreement with respect to the ownership and administration of the Properties (the "Operating Agreement").  The Manager shall have a right to resign, and the Members shall have the right to remove the Manager for cause only under the same terms and conditions as are required for removal or replacement of Agent under Section 8.2(a).  The Members shall have voting control of the Ownership LLC in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages.  The Operating Agreement shall require each Member to fund all amounts due from 

	
			
	 
	-65-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

it in connection with the Ownership LLC with respect to the Properties.  If any Member is a designee of a Lender, such Lender shall execute an agreement in favor of the Manager and the other Members guarantying the payment of any indemnity and other payment obligations made by such non-Lender Member in connection with the Ownership LLC (each a "Lender Guaranty" and collectively, the "Lender Guaranties").  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Agent determines that, to protect the collateral securing the Loan or to otherwise avoid significant delays, title to any of the Properties should be transferred for the benefit of Lenders before the ownership structure described above can be completed, then Agent shall have the right to take title to such Properties in the name of its wholly-owned subsidiary, on behalf of itself and each Lender, and thereafter, cause such subsidiary to transfer title to the Ownership LLC as soon as reasonably practicable.  The specific terms and provisions of the (A) Operating Agreement and all other agreements, instruments, certificates, articles and other documents evidencing, governing and creating the Ownership LLC (the "Formation Documents"), and (B) Lender Guaranties, if any, shall be subject to the approval of Lenders by vote of the Majority Lenders.  If the terms and provisions of any such agreements are so approved and are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, all Lenders or their respective designees, as applicable, shall join in executing and delivering the Formation Documents and the Lender Guaranties, if applicable.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably waives any right to seek a partition of any interests in any Property.  Prior to entering into the Formation Documents, or if the form or terms thereof are not approved by the Majority Lenders, Agent or its wholly owned subsidiary shall have the sole and exclusive right to make (or to refrain from making) all decisions with respect to, and to perform (or refrain from performing) all actions with respect to, the leasing, encumbering, use, operation, maintenance, improvement, repair and restoration of the Properties (and any Improvements located thereon) or disposition of any other collateral; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Agent or its wholly owned subsidiary shall not, without the prior written consent of the Majority Lenders, (a) sell (or lease as a whole) any Property or encumber any Property with a mortgage, deed of trust or similar instrument securing indebtedness for borrowed money, or (b) make any single expenditure with respect to any Property in an amount in excess of $500,000 (exclusive of taxes and assessments, insurance premiums, utility charges and expenditures required to comply with applicable laws), (c) make any material repairs, restorations and/or improvements to any Property (except to the extent required by applicable Governmental Requirements) or (d) dispose of any other material collateral.  Subject to the foregoing, each Lender, pro rata in accordance with its Commitment Percentage, shall reimburse Agent or its wholly owned subsidiary, as the case may be, on demand, for all costs and expenses incurred by Agent or its wholly owned subsidiary in connection with the sale, lease, encumbering, use, operation, maintenance, improvement, repair and restoration of any Property (including all costs and expenses incurred by Agent to pay taxes and assessments, utility charges, insurance premiums, common area maintenance charges, leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs, repair costs and restoration costs).  The indemnity provisions contained in Section 8.1(b) above, shall apply equally to actions (and omissions) by Agent or its wholly owned subsidiary with respect to the Properties so acquired by Agent or its wholly owned subsidiary.  Each Lender shall participate pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentage in all income, expenses, profits and losses of the Properties.  The foregoing provisions of this Section 8.6 shall remain in full force and effect following the entering into of the Formation Documents unless the terms thereof specifically contradict the foregoing provisions.  Unless all Lenders otherwise consent in writing, the terms 

	
			
	 
	-66-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

and provisions of the Formation Documents for the Ownership LLC shall be consistent with the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.6, this Article 8 and the other applicable provisions of the Loan Documents.
8.7    Defaulting Lender.
(a)    Defaults.  If for any reason any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Agent and the other Lenders at law and in equity, such Defaulting Lender's right to participate in the administration of the Loan and the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any rights to consent to or direct any action or inaction of the Agent, shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (1) the obligations of the Lenders under this Agreement are several, (2) no Lender is or will be obligated to lend Borrower more than the amount set forth in Exhibit I hereto (or the applicable Assignment and Assumption Agreement) for such Lender, nor to fund any part of any advance except upon fulfillment of all applicable conditions precedent provided herein and in the other Loan Documents, (3) except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, Borrower shall have no recourse or claim against a non‐defaulting Lender nor against Agent (so long as the same have otherwise complied with their obligations under this Agreement), for any deficiency or any liability, loss, damage or expense resulting from the default of a Defaulting Lender, and (4) the Commitment Percentage of the Committed Amount of any Lender shall not be increased or decreased as a result of the failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make an advance.
(b)    Remedies.  If for any reason the Defaulting Lender fails to make timely payment to any other party to this Agreement of any amount required to be paid to it hereunder, in addition to other rights and remedies which such other party may have under Section 8.7(a) or otherwise, such other party shall be entitled (1) to collect interest from the Defaulting Lender for the period from the date on which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made for each day during such period at the Federal Funds Rate, (2) to withhold or set off, and to apply to the payment of the defaulted amount and any related interest, any amounts to be paid to the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (3) to bring an action or suit against the Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest, (4) to arrange for the purchase of the Commitment Percentage of the Defaulting Lender as provided in Section 8.7(d), and (5) to advance funds on behalf of the Defaulting Lender as provided in Section 8.7(e).
(c)    Indemnity.  The Defaulting Lender shall indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, and expense (including attorneys' fees) which they may sustain or incur by reason of or in consequence of the Defaulting Lender's failure or refusal to abide by the terms of this Agreement.
(d)    Purchase Right.  If a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the other Lenders who are not Defaulting Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, in their sole discretion, to acquire (pro rata based on the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders exercising such right) all of such Defaulting Lender's right, title, and interest in and to the Loan. The purchase price shall be the principal and accrued interest allocable to the Defaulting Lender's

	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

Commitment Percentage of the Loan and shall be paid on the closing day of such purchase.  On the date of closing of such purchase, the Defaulting Lender shall pay the Agent a processing fee of $5,000.  The Defaulting Lender shall retain liability for all obligations in respect of the Loan and this Agreement arising prior to the date of transfer and shall execute and deliver such documents as may be reasonably necessary to effect such transfer.
(e)    Default Loans.  If a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the other Lenders may (pro rata based on the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders exercising such right), but are not obligated to, make advances to the Agent in the aggregate amount that the Defaulting Lender is obligated to advance under this Agreement.  Such advances shall be treated as loans made to the Defaulting Lender, shall bear interest at the Default Rate (payable on demand), shall be due and payable upon demand, and shall be paid prior to any payment being made to the Defaulting Lender.
(f)    Payments Owed to Defaulting Lender.  If a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Agent: (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder, (ii) second, to the funding of any advances in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Agent, and any related interest as described in Section 8.7(b) above, (iii), third, to the repayment of any default loans described in Section 8.7(e) above, (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Agent, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (v) fifth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and (vi) sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
(g)    Cumulative Remedies and Survival.  The exercise of the above remedies shall not reduce, diminish or liquidate the Defaulting Lender's obligation for the sharing of losses and reimbursement of costs, liabilities, and expenses under the Loan Documents and this Agreement.  The obligations of the Defaulting Lender arising prior to any purchase pursuant to Section 8.7(d) shall survive any such purchase.
8.8    Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgments.
(a)    Authorization, etc.  Each Lender represents and warrants, as of the date hereof, as follows:
(1)    Such Lender has all necessary corporate power and authority to own its interest in the Loan and the Loan Documents, and has all necessary corporate power and authority to perform its obligations with respect to this Agreement and the Loan Documents;

	-69-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

Loan, in such a manner as to create privity of contract between such affiliate and the Borrower and to make such affiliate a Lender for all purposes hereunder.  Any Lender may, upon the prior approval of Agent (and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the prior approval of Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign to any entity which meets the following conditions ("Assignee Lender") all or a portion of its respective Commitment Percentage of the Loan, in such a manner as to create privity of contract between such person and the Borrower and to make such person a Lender for all purposes hereunder:
(1)    The minimum portion of the total commitment which the assigning Lender may assign to an Assignee Lender shall be Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00).
(2)    Without limiting the power of consent in subsection (4) below, an Assignee Lender (or its direct or indirect parent) shall be either (A) a commercial lender organized under the laws of the United States, or any state thereof, and having total assets in excess of Two Billion Dollars ($2,000,000,000) or (B) a commercial bank organized under the laws of any other country which has total assets in excess of Ten Billion Dollars ($10,000,000,000) or (C) any other financial institution which has total assets in excess of Ten Billion Dollars ($10,000,000,000).

(b)    Assignment and Assumption.  The Borrower and Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with the assigning Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee Lender (or to an affiliate of such Lender) until such time as (i) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee Lender (or such affiliate) shall have been given to the Borrower and Agent by the assigning Lender and the Assignee Lender (or such affiliate); (ii) the assigning Lender and the Assignee Lender (or such affiliate) shall have delivered to the Borrower and Agent an Assignment and Assumption.
Upon request, Borrower will execute and deliver to Agent, at Borrower's cost to the extent such costs do not exceed $10,000, an appropriate replacement promissory note or replacement promissory notes in favor of each assignee (and assignor, if such assignor is retaining a portion of its Commitment Percentage and advances) reflecting such assignee's (and assignor's) Commitment Percentage of the Committed Amount.

	-70-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

shall be canceled and returned to Borrower.  For purposes of clarification, if Borrower's costs relating to an Assignment and Assumption exceed $10,000, such costs exceeding $10,000 shall be borne by the Lenders receiving replacement notes pro rata in accordance with such Lenders' Commitment Percentage of the Committed Amount.  Under no circumstances shall Borrower be required to execute any certifications or similar documents or to provide any representations or warranties confirming the accuracy of any information or otherwise in connection with any assignment or participation.  
(c)    Notice by Agent.

(e)    Rights of Assignee.  From and after the date upon which Agent notifies the assigning Lender that it has received an executed Assignment and Assumption:  (1) the Assignee Lender (or the Lender's affiliate) thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Assignee Lender's consent shall be required only with respect to matters particularly set forth in Sections 8.4(b)(1), (3), (4) and (7) hereof, and (2) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement.

	-71-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (5) the Assignee Lender (or such affiliate) hereby appoints and authorizes Agent to take such action as administrative agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents and this Agreement as are delegated to Agent thereunder and hereunder, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (6) the Assignee Lender (or such affiliate) agrees that it will perform all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender and confirms the representations and warranties of the assigning Lender under this Agreement.
(g)    Participations.  Any Lender may upon prior written notice to Borrower and Agent sell a participation interest in all or any portion of the Loan without the prior consent of the Agent and the other Lenders; provided, however, the voting rights of any participants shall be limited to actions with respect to increases in the maximum Committed Amount, extensions of the maturity date beyond the extension option terms and changes in the interest rates applicable to the Loan.
8.10    Other Business.

8.11    Consents.  If the Agent requests in writing consent or approval from the Lenders and any Lender does not respond to such written request within ten (10) Business Days (or such other period as may be provided herein), such Lender shall be deemed to have given such consent or approval.
8.12    Agent as Lender.  In its individual capacity as a Lender, U.S. Bank shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Commitment Percentage and the Advances made by it, and as the holder of any Note as it would have were it not also the Agent.
8.13    Notification of Defaults and Events of Default.  Each Lender hereby agrees that, upon learning of the existence of a default or an Event of Default, it shall (to the extent notice has not previously been provided) promptly notify the Agent thereof.

In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Agent shall act 

	
			
	 
	-72-
	Loan Agreement (KBS REIT III)

solely as Agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower or any other person.
8.15    Reliance.  Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents, telecopies or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of legal counsel (including counsel for Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it.
8.16    Pledge to Federal Reserve Bank.  Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Agreement, including this Section 8.16, any Lender may at any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights under all or any of the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from its obligations thereunder.

In addition, and notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent agrees not to share any confidential information of Borrower or Guarantor with any potential or actual Loan Participant or Assignees without first obtaining Borrower's or Guarantor's consent (which consent shall require an execution of a confidentiality agreement or confidentiality agreements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Borrower). 
(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other written or oral understanding or agreement to which the parties hereto are parties or by which they are bound, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) any obligations of confidentiality contained herein and therein do not apply and have not applied from the commencement of discussions between the parties to the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (and any related transactions or arrangements), and (ii) each party (and each of its employees, representatives, or other agents) may disclose to any and all parties as required by applicable laws, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and

3.    Assumption.  Effective on the Assignment Effective Date, Assignee hereby accepts the foregoing assignment of, and hereby assumes from Assignor, the Assigned Rights and Obligations.
4.    Effectiveness.  This Agreement shall become effective on a date (the "Assignment Effective Date") selected by Assignor, which shall be on or as soon as practicable after the execution and delivery of counterparts of this Agreement by Assignor, Assignee, Agent

and Borrower.  Assignor shall promptly notify Assignee, Agent and Borrower in writing of the Assignment Effective Date.
5.    Payments on Assignment Effective Date.

6.    Allocation and Payment of Interest and Fees.
(a)    Agent shall pay to Assignee all interest, and other amounts not constituting principal that are paid by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents and are attributable to the Assigned Rights and Obligations ("Borrower Amounts"), that accrue on and after the Assignment Effective Date.  If Assignor receives or collects any such Borrower Amounts, Assignor shall promptly pay them to Assignee.
(b)    Agent shall pay to Assignor all Borrower Amounts that accrue before the Assignment Effective Date when and as the same are paid by Agent to the other the Lenders.  If Assignee receives or collects any such Borrower Amounts, Assignee shall promptly pay such amounts to Assignor.
(c)    Unless specifically assumed by Assignee, Assignor shall be responsible and liable for all reimbursable liabilities and costs and indemnification obligations which accrue prior to the Assignment Effective Date, and such liability shall survive the Assignment Effective Date.
(d)    Agent shall not be liable for any allocation or payment to either Assignor or Assignee subsequently determined to be erroneous, unless resulting from Agent's willful misconduct or gross negligence.
7.    Representations and Warranties.

(i)    Assignee has made and shall continue to make its own independent investigation of the financial condition, affairs and creditworthiness of the Borrower and Guarantor and any other person or entity obligated under the Loan Documents (collectively, "Credit Parties"), and the value of any collateral now or hereafter securing any of the Obligations; and
(ii)    Assignee has received a copy of those Loan Documents and such other documents, financial statements and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.
8.    No Assignor Responsibility.  Assignor makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility to Assignee for:
