Consultants. An Award may be granted to an employee, in connection with hiring, retention or
otherwise, prior to the date the employee first performs services for the Company or the
Subsidiaries, provided that such Awards shall not become vested prior to the date the employee
first performs such services.

4. Shares Subject to Plan.

4.1 Shares Subject to the Plan. The maximum number of Shares that may be delivered to
Participants and their beneficiaries pursuant to the Plan shall be equal to 9.5 million shares of
Common Stock. The limitations established by the preceding sentence shall be subject to adjustment
as provided in Section 4.4 of the Plan.

4.2 Accounting for Number of Shares. For purposes of determining the aggregate number of
Shares available for delivery to Participants pursuant to the Plan, any Shares granted under the
Plan which are forfeited back to the Company because of the failure to meet an award contingency or
condition shall again be available for delivery pursuant to new Awards granted under the Plan. Any
Shares covered by an Award (or portion of an Award) granted under the Plan, which is forfeited or
canceled, expires or is settled in cash, shall be deemed not to have been delivered for purposes of
determining the maximum number of Shares available for delivery under the Plan. Likewise, if any
Option is exercised by tendering Shares to the Company as full or partial payment in connection
with the exercise of an Option under this Plan or the Prior Plan, only the number of Shares issued
net of the Shares tendered shall be deemed delivered for purposes of determining the maximum number
of Shares available for delivery under the Plan. Further, Shares issued under the Plan through the
settlement, assumption or substitution of outstanding Awards or obligations to grant future Awards
as a result of acquiring another entity shall not reduce the maximum number of Shares available for
delivery under the Plan.

4.3 Maximum Total Option and SAR Awards. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.1, over
the term of the Plan, the total number of Shares that may be issued upon exercise of all Options
and SARs granted under the Plan shall not exceed 9.5 million shares of Common Stock (as adjusted to
reflect a two-for-one Common Stock split distributed on December 15, 2000). The limitations in this
Section 4.3 shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.4 below.

4.4 Adjustments. In the event of a corporate transaction involving the Company (including,
without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization,
reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination or exchange of shares, or
other similar transactions or award), the Committee may adjust Awards as well as the total number
of shares subject to the Plan to preserve the benefits or potential benefits of the Awards. Action
by the Committee may include: (i) adjustment of the number and kind of Shares (or other securities
or property) which may be delivered under the Plan; (ii) adjustment of the number and kind of
Shares (or the securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards; (iii) adjustment of the
Exercise Price of outstanding Options and SARs; and (iv) any other adjustments that the Committee
determines to be equitable, in its sole discretion.

5. Awards of Options and SARs.

5.1 General Terms and Conditions. The Committee shall have full and complete authority and
discretion, except as expressly limited by the Plan, to grant Options and SARs and to provide any
and all terms and conditions (which need not be identical among the Participants) thereof. In
particular, the Committee shall prescribe the following terms and conditions:

(a) The Exercise Price of the Option or SAR, which may not be less than 100% of the Fair
Market Value per Share at the date of grant of the Option or SAR;

(b) The number of Shares subject to, and the expiration date of, the Option or SAR;

(c) The manner, time and rate (cumulative or otherwise) of exercise of the Option or SAR;
provided, however, that except as otherwise specified in the Plan, no Option or SAR awarded to a
Participant who is an Officer shall expressly provide for exercise prior to the expiration of
six months from the date of grant; and

(d) The restrictions or conditions (such as performance goals), if any, to be placed upon
the Option or SAR, the exercisability of the Option or SAR or upon the Shares which may be
issued upon exercise of the Option or SAR. The Committee may, as a condition of granting an
Option or SAR, require that a Participant agree not to thereafter exercise one or more Options
or SARs previously granted to such Participant.

5.2 Maximum Award of Options and SARs. The number of Shares that may be allotted by the
Committee pursuant to Options and SARs awarded to any individual Participant shall not exceed, in
any fiscal year, 2.0 million Shares (as adjusted to reflect a two-for-one Common Stock Split
distributed on December 15, 2000) (subject to further adjustment pursuant to Section 4.4 of the
Plan). If an Option is in tandem with an SAR, such that the exercise of the Option or SAR with
respect to a Share cancels the tandem SAR or Option right, respectively, with respect to such
Share, the tandem Option and SAR rights with respect to such Share shall be counted as covering but
one Share for purposes of applying the limitations of this Section 5.2.

5.3 SAR Awards.

(a) Grant of SARs. An SAR shall, upon its exercise, entitle the Participant to whom such SAR
was granted to receive a number of Shares or cash or combination thereof, as the Committee in its
discretion shall determine, the aggregate value of which (i.e., the sum of the amount of cash
and/or Fair Market Value of such Shares on date of exercise) shall equal the amount by which the
Fair Market Value per Share on the date of such exercise shall exceed the Exercise Price of such
SAR multiplied by the number of Shares with respect of which such SAR shall have been exercised. An
SAR may be related to an Option or may be granted independently of an Option, as the Committee
shall from time to time in each case determine. A Related SAR may be granted at the time of grant
of an Option or, in the case of an NQSO, at any time thereafter during the term of the NQSO.

(b) Related SARs. The Exercise Price of a Related SAR shall be the same as the Exercise Price
of the Related Option. A Related SAR shall be exercisable only at such time or times and only to
the extent that the Related Option is exercisable and then only when the Fair Market Value per
Share on the date of exercise exceeds the Exercise Price. A Related SAR shall expire no later than
the Related Option. Upon exercise of a Related SAR, in whole or in part, the Related Option shall
be cancelled automatically to the extent of the number of Shares covered by such exercise, and such
Shares shall no longer be available for delivery pursuant to future Awards. Conversely, if the
Related Option is exercised, in whole or in part, the Related SAR shall be cancelled automatically
to the extent of the number of Shares covered by the Option exercise.

5.4 Exercise of Options and SARs.

(a) General Exercise Rights. Except as provided in Section 5.9, an Option or SAR ranted under
the Plan shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant to whom such Option or SAR was
granted only by such Participant, and except as provided in Section 5.4(c) and Section 5.9 hereof,
no Option or SAR may be exercised unless at the time such Participant exercises such Option or SAR,
such Participant is an employee of and has continuously since the grant thereof been an employee
of, the Company or an any of its Subsidiaries. Transfer of employment between Subsidiaries or
between Subsidiary and the Company shall not be considered an interruption or termination of
employment for any purpose under this Plan. Neither shall a leave of absence at the request, or
with the approval, of the Company or Subsidiary be deemed an interruption or termination of
employment, so long as the period of such leave does not exceed 90 days, or, if longer, so long as
the Participant’s right to re-employment with the Company or Subsidiary is guaranteed by contract.
An Option or SAR also shall contain such conditions upon exercise (including, without limitation,
conditions limiting the time of exercise to specified periods) as may be required to satisfy
applicable regulatory requirements, including, without limitation, Rule 16b-3 (or any successor
rule) promulgated by the Commission.

(b) Notice of Exercise. An Option or SAR may not be exercised with respect to less than 100
Shares, unless the exercise relates to all Shares covered by the Option or SAR at the date of
exercise. An Option or SAR may be exercised by delivery of a written notice to the Company, which
shall state the election to exercise the Option or SAR and the number of whole Shares in respect of
which it is being exercised, and shall be signed by the person or persons so exercising the Option
or SAR. In the case of an exercise of an Option or SAR, such notice shall either: (i) if
applicable, be accompanied by payment of the full Exercise Price and all applicable withholding
taxes, in which event the Company shall deliver any certificate(s) representing Shares to which the
Participant is entitled as a result of the exercise as soon as practicable after the notice has
been received; or (ii) fix a date (not less than 5 nor more than 15 business days from the date
such notice has been received by the Company) for the payment of the full Exercise Price and all
applicable withholding taxes, against delivery by the Company of any certificate(s) representing
Shares to which the Participant is entitled to receive as a result of the exercise. Payment of such
Exercise Price and withholding taxes shall be made as provided in Sections 5.4(d) and 13,
respectively. In the event the Option or SAR shall be exercised pursuant to Section 5.4(c)(i) or
Section 5.9 hereof, by any person or persons other than the Participant, such notice shall be
accompanied by appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the Option or
SAR.

(c) Exercise after Termination of Employment. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee
at the date of grant of the Option or SAR and as is provided in the applicable Agreement evidencing
the Award, upon termination of a Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, such Participant (or in the case of death, the person(s) to whom the Option is
transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution) may exercise such Option or SAR during
the following periods of time (but in no event after the expiration date of such Option or SAR) to
the extent that such Participant was entitled to exercise such Option or SAR (or portion thereof)
at the date of such termination (i.e., the Option or SAR (or portion thereof) must be “vested” at
the time of termination to be exercisable thereafter):

(i) In the case of termination as a result of death, disability or retirement of the
Participant, the Option or SAR shall remain exercisable for a one-year period following such
termination; for this purpose, “disability” shall exist when the Participant is unable to engage
in any substantial, gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental
impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to
last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, as determined by the Committee in its
sole discretion, and “retirement” shall mean voluntary retirement at or after the Participant’s
normal retirement date as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion;

(ii) In the case of termination for Cause, the Option shall immediately terminate and shall
no longer be exercisable; and

(iii) In the case of termination for any reason other than those set forth in subparagraphs
(i) and (ii) above, the Option or SAR shall remain exercisable for three months after the date
of termination.

To the extent the Option or SAR is not exercised within the foregoing periods of time, the Option
or SAR shall automatically terminate at the end of the applicable period of time. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions, failure to exercise an ISO within the periods of time prescribed under
Sections 421 and 422 of the Code shall cause an ISO to cease to be treated as an “incentive stock
option” for purposes of Section 421 of the Code.

(d) Payment of Option Exercise Price. Upon the exercise of an Option, payment of the Exercise
Price shall be made either (i) in cash (by a certified check, bank draft or money order payable in
United States dollars), (ii) with the consent of the Committee and subject to Section 5.4(e)
hereof, by delivering the Participant’s duly-executed promissory note and related documents, (iii)
with the consent of the Committee, by delivering Shares already owned by the Participant valued at
Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise, (iv) with the consent of the Committee, by
irrevocably authorizing a third party to sell shares of Common Stock (or a sufficient portion of
such shares) acquired upon exercise of the Option and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of
the sales proceeds to pay the entire Exercise Price and any tax withholding resulting from such
exercise, or (v) by a combination of the foregoing forms of payment.

(e) Payment with Loan. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, assist any Participant in
the exercise of one or more Options granted to such Participant under the Plan by authorizing the
extension of a loan to such Participant from the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this
Section 5.4(e), the terms of any loan (including the interest rate and terms of repayment) shall be
established by the Committee in its sole discretion. Any such loan by the Company shall be with
full recourse against the Participant to whom the loan is granted, shall be secured in whole or in
part by the Shares so purchased, and shall bear interest at a rate not less than the minimum
interest rate required at the time of purchase of the Shares in order to avoid having imputed
interest or original issue discount under Sections 483 or 1272 of the Code. In addition, any such
loan by the Company shall become immediately due and payable in full, at the option of the Company,
upon termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries for any
reason or upon the sale of any Shares acquired with such loan to the extent of the cash and fair
market value of any property received by the Participant in such sale. The Committee may make
arrangements for the application of payroll deductions from compensation payable to the Participant
to amounts owing to the Company under any such loan. Until any loan by the Company under this
Section 5.4(e) is fully paid in cash, the Shares shall be pledged to the Company as security for
such loan and the Company shall retain physical possession of the stock certificates evidencing the
Shares so purchased together with a duly executed stock power for such Shares. No loan shall be
made hereunder unless counsel for the Company shall be satisfied that the loan and the issuance of
Shares funded thereby will be in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws, and
such counsel shall be consulted prior to the funding of any such loan.

5.5 Settlement of Awards of Options and SARs. Settlement of Awards of Options and SARs is
subject to Section 10.

5.6 Options or SARs Awarded to Consultants. Any provision of this Section 5 to the contrary
notwithstanding, (i) an Option or SAR may be exercised at any time by a Participant who is a
Consultant during the applicable period in the manner provided in Section 5.4(b) above; provided,
that in the event of the death of a Participant who is a Consultant, the Option or SAR may be
exercised by the executors or administrators of the estate of such Consultant or by the person or
persons who shall have acquired the Option or SAR directly by bequest or inheritance; and (ii) the
Exercise Price for an Option or SAR awarded to a Consultant must be paid in cash (by a certified
check, bank draft of money order).

5.7 Rights as a Shareholder. A Participant shall have no rights as a shareholder with
respect to any Shares issuable on exercise of an Option or SAR until the date of the issuance of a
stock certificate to the Participant for such Shares. No adjustment shall be made for dividends
(ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or other property) or distributions or
other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued,
except as provided in Section 4.4 hereof.

5.8 Special Provisions for ISOs.

Any provision of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, the following special provisions
shall apply to all ISOs granted under the Plan:

(a) The Option must be expressly designated as an ISO by the Committee and in the Agreement
evidencing the Option;

(b) No ISO shall be granted more than ten years from the Effective Date of the Plan and no ISO
shall be exercisable more than ten years from the date such ISO is granted;

(c) The Exercise Price of any ISO shall not be less than the Fair Market Value per Share on
the date such ISO is granted;

(d) Any ISO shall not be transferable by the Participant to whom such ISO is granted other
than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during such
Participant’s lifetime only by such Participant;

(e) No ISO shall be granted to any individual who, at the time such ISO is granted, owns stock
possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company
or any Subsidiary unless the Exercise Price of such ISO is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value
per Share at the date of grant and such ISO is not exercisable after the expiration of five years
from the date such ISO is granted;

(f) The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time any ISO is granted) of any
Company stock with respect to which any ISOs granted to a Participant are exercisable for the first
time by such Participant during any calendar year (under this Plan and all other stock option plans
of the Company and any of its Subsidiary and any predecessor of any such corporations) shall not
exceed $100,000 as required under Section 422(d)(i) of the Code. (To the extent the $100,000 limit
is exceeded, the $100,000 in Options, measured as described above, granted earliest in time will be
treated as ISOs); and

(g) any other terms and conditions as may be required in order that the ISO qualifies as an
“incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code or successor provision.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.4(c)(i), the favorable tax treatment available
pursuant to Section 422 of the Code upon the exercise of an ISO will not be available to a
Participant who exercises any ISO more than (i) 12 months after the date of termination of
employment due to the Participant’s disability, or (ii) three months after the date of termination
of employment due to retirement of the Participant.

5.9 Limited Transferability. No Option or SAR, nor any interest therein, may be assigned,
encumbered or transferred except, in the event of the death of a Participant, by will or the laws
of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall have the
discretionary authority to grant NQSOs and SARs (that are not Related to an ISO) that are
transferable by the Participant to the Participant’s children, grandchildren, spouse, one or more
trusts for the benefit of such family members, or a partnership in which such family members were
the only partners. The holder of an NQSO or SAR transferred pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall be
bound by the terms and conditions that govern the NQSO or SAR during the period that it was held by
the Participant; provided, however, that such transferee may not transfer the NQSO or SAR except by
will or the laws of descent and distribution.

6. Restricted Stock.

6.1 General Terms/Conditions. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant one or more Awards
of Restricted Stock to any Participant. Each Award of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by an
Agreement which shall specify the number of Shares to be issued to the Participant, the date of
such issuance, the price, if any, to be paid for such Shares by the Participant, the Restriction
Period and any other conditions imposed on such Shares as the Committee, in its discretion, shall
determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall impose upon each Award of Restricted
Stock made to a Participant who is an Officer a Restriction Period expiring no earlier than six
months after the date of grant of the Restricted Stock.

6.2 Maximum Award of Restricted Stock. The maximum number of Shares that may be allotted by
the Committee pursuant to Restricted Stock awarded to any individual Participant shall not exceed,
in any fiscal year, 300,000 Shares (subject to further adjustment as provided in Section 4.4 of the
Plan).

6.3 Restrictions and Forfeitures.

(a) Shares included in Restricted Stock Awards may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged
or otherwise disposed of or encumbered, either voluntarily or involuntarily, until such Shares have
fully vested.

(b) Participants holding shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may be granted the right
to exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares during the Restriction Period. During
the Restriction Period, Participants holding shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may be
credited with regular cash dividends paid with respect to the underlying Shares while they are so
held. The Committee may apply any restrictions to the dividends that the Committee deems
appropriate. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, if the grant or vesting of
Restricted Stock is designed to comply with one or more of the Performance Measures set forth in
Section 9.1, the Committee may apply any restrictions it deems appropriate to the payment of
dividends declared with respect to such Restricted Stock, such that the dividends and/or the
Restricted Stock maintain eligibility under Section 162(m) of the Code.

(c) In the event that the Participant shall have paid any cash for the Restricted Stock, the
Agreement shall specify whether and to what extent such cash shall be returned upon a forfeiture
(with or without an earnings factor).

(d) The Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by a stock certificate registered only in the name
of the Participant, which stock certificate shall be held by the Company until the Restricted Stock
has fully vested.

(e) The occurrence of any of the following events shall cause the immediate vesting of the
Restricted Stock:

(i) the death of the Participant;

(ii) the retirement of the Participant on or after the Participant’s normal retirement
date;

(iii) the disability of the Participant.

For the purposes of this Subsection, the term “disability” shall be defined as such term is
defined in Section 5.4(c)(i). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a condition(s) other
than a Restriction Period has been imposed by the Committee upon the Restricted Stock, the
occurrence of the foregoing shall not cause immediate vesting unless and until such condition(s)
has been met.

(f) A Restricted Stock Award shall be entirely forfeited by the Participant in the event that
prior to vesting, the Participant breaches any terms or conditions of the Plan, the Participant
resigns from or is terminated by the Company, or any condition(s) imposed upon vesting are not met.

6.4 Legend on Certificates. Each certificate evidencing a Restricted Stock Award under the
Plan shall be registered in the name of the Participant and deposited by the Participant, together
with a stock power endorsed in blank, with the Company and shall bear the following (or a similar)
legend:

“The transferability of this certificate and the shares of Common Stock represented hereby
are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) contained in The Shaw Group Inc.

7. Performance Shares.

7.1 Grant of Performance Shares. Subject to the terms of the Plan, Performance Shares may be
granted to Participants in such amounts and upon such terms, and at any time and from time to time,
as shall be determined by the Committee, provided that no more than 50,000 Shares (as adjusted to
reflect a two-for-one Common Sock split distributed on December 15, 2000) (subject to further
adjustment as provided in Section 4.4 of the Plan) may be subject to any Performance Share Awards
granted to any individual Participant in any fiscal year.

7.2 Value of Performance Shares. Each Performance Share shall have an initial value equal to
the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. The Committee shall set performance goals in
its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number
and/or value of Performance Shares that will be paid out to the Participant.

7.3 Earning of Performance Shares. Subject to the terms of the Plan, after the applicable
Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Shares shall be entitled to receive payout
on the number and value of Performance Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance

have been achieved.

7.4 Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Shares. Payment of earned Performance Shares
shall be made in a single lump sum following the close of the applicable Performance Period.
Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may pay earned
Performance Shares in the form of cash or in Shares (or in a combination thereof) which have an
aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the earned Performance Shares at the close of the
applicable Performance Period. Such Shares may be granted subject to any restrictions deemed
appropriate by the Committee. The determination of the Committee with respect to the form of payout
of such Awards shall be set forth in the Agreement pertaining to the grant of the Award of
Performance Shares.

At the discretion of the Committee, Participants may be entitled to receive any dividends
declared with respect to Shares which have been earned in connection with grants of Performance
Shares which have been earned, but not yet distributed to Participants (such dividends shall be
subject to the same accrual, forfeiture, and payout restrictions as apply to dividends earned with
respect to Shares of Restricted Stock, as set forth in Section 6 hereof). In addition, Participants
may, at the discretion of the Committee, be entitled to exercise their voting rights with respect
to such Shares.

7.5 Termination of Employment Due to Death, Disability, or Retirement. Unless determined
otherwise by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement evidencing an Award of Performance

qualifying as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code to a Participant
who retires during a Performance Period, payment shall be made pursuant to such Performance Share
Award at the same time as payments are made to Participants who did not terminate employment during
the applicable Performance Period.

employment terminates for any reason other than those reasons set forth in Section 7.5 above, all
Performance Shares shall be forfeited by the Participant to the Company unless determined otherwise
by the Committee, as set forth in the Agreement evidencing such Award.

otherwise disposed of or encumbered, either voluntarily or involuntarily, until such Performance

specify the terms and conditions that govern the granting thereof. Such terms and conditions may

or the Participant attain stated objectives or goals as a prerequisite to payment under an
Incentive Bonus. The Committee, at the time the Incentive Bonus is granted shall also specify what
amount shall be payable under the Incentive Bonus and whether amounts shall be payable in the event
of the Participant’s death, disability or retirement.

compensation” shall be conditioned on the achievement of one or more Performance Measures, to the

required by Section 162(m) of the Code and (ii) the Committee shall certify in writing that the
Performance Measure has been met. The Committee shall have the discretion to define the Performance
Measures on a corporation or subsidiary or business division basis or in comparison with peer group
performance.

9.2 Board Authority. In the event that applicable tax and/or securities laws change to
permit the Committee discretion to alter the governing Performance Measures without obtaining
shareholder approval of such changes, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have the sole
discretion to make changes in the Performance Measures without shareholder approval.

10. Settlement of Awards.

The obligation to make payments and distributions with respect to Awards may be satisfied
through cash payments, the delivery of shares of Common Stock, the granting of replacement Awards,
or combination thereof as the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion. Satisfaction of
any such obligations under an Award, which is sometimes referred to as “settlement” of the Award,
may be subject to such conditions, restrictions, and contingencies as the Committee shall
determine. The Committee may permit or require the deferral of any Award payment, subject to such
rules and procedures as it may establish, which may include provisions for the payment or crediting
of interest or dividend equivalents. Each Subsidiary shall be liable for payment of cash due under

services rendered for that Subsidiary by the Participant. Any disputes relating to liability of a
Subsidiary for cash payments shall be resolved by the Committee.

rendered by the Company to the Consultant. However, in no event shall an Award be made to a

securities in a capital raising transaction or (ii) who directly or indirectly promotes or
maintains a market for the Company’s securities.

12. Government Regulations.

(and/or the payment of money) pursuant thereto are subject to all applicable federal and state
laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency
(including without limitation “no action” positions of the Commission) which may, in the opinion of
counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, no Awards may be granted under this Plan, and no Shares shall be
issued by the Company, pursuant to or in connection with any such Award, unless and until, in each
such case, all legal requirements applicable to the issuance or payment have, in the opinion of
counsel to the Company, been complied with. In connection with any stock issuance or transfer, the
person acquiring the Shares shall, if requested by the Company, give assurances satisfactory to
counsel to the Company in respect of such matters as the Company may deem desirable to assure
compliance with all applicable legal requirements. The Company shall not be required to deliver any
Shares under the Plan prior to (i) the admission of such Shares to listing or for quotation on any
stock exchange or automated quotation system on which Shares may then be listed or quoted, and (ii)
the completion and effectiveness of such registration or other qualification of such Shares under
any state or federal law, rule or regulation, as the Committee shall determine to be necessary or
advisable.

13. Tax Withholding.

The Company shall have the right to withhold from amounts due Participants, or to collect from
Participants directly, the amount which the Company deems necessary to satisfy any taxes required
by law to be withheld at any time by reason of participation in the Plan, and the obligations of
the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on payment of such taxes. The Participant may,
prior to the due date of any taxes, pay such amounts to the Company in cash, or with the consent of
the Committee, in Shares (which shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of payment).
There is no obligation under this Plan that any Participant be advised of the existence of the tax
or the amount required to be withheld. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any
case where it determines that a tax is or will be required to be withheld in connection with the
issuance or transfer or vesting of Shares under this Plan, the Company may pursuant to such rules
as the Committee may establish, reduce the number of such Shares so issued or transferred by such
number of Shares as the Company may deem appropriate in its sole discretion to accomplish such
withholding or make such other arrangements as it deems satisfactory. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Plan, the Committee may impose such conditions on the payment of any withholding
obligation as may be required to satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, including, without
limitation, Rule 16b-3 (or successor provision) promulgated by the Commission.

under the Plan with respect to any Award. Members of the Board of Directors and members of the
Committee acting under the Plan shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the advice
of counsel and shall incur no liability except for willful misconduct in the performance of their
duties.

advisable for the administration of the Plan not inconsistent with the Plan;

Committee shall be indemnified by the Company against the reasonable expenses, including court
costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, actually incurred in connection with the defense of any
action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them
may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan
or any Award granted hereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof or paid
by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding, except where such
indemnification is expressly prohibited by applicable law.

otherwise provided in the Agreement evidencing the Award, upon the occurrence of a Change of
Control:

in person or represented by proxy at a meeting of shareholders at which the approval of such Plan
is considered.

17. Amendment and Termination.

17.1 The Plan

(a) Amendment. The Board of Directors may amend the Plan from time to time in its sole
discretion, provided that, unless the requisite approval of shareholders is obtained, no amendment
shall be made to the Plan if such amendment would (i) increase the number of Shares available for
issuance under the Plan or increase the limits applicable to Awards under the Plan, in each case,
except as provided in Section 4.4; (ii) lower the Exercise Price of an Option or SAR grant value
below 100% of the Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of the Award, except as provided in
Section 4.4; (iii) remove the repricing restriction set forth in Section 17.2; or (iv) require
shareholder approval pursuant to applicable federal, state or local law or under rules of the New

Participant’s consent.

(b) Termination. The Plan shall terminate automatically on the tenth anniversary of the
Effective Date, and the Board of Directors may suspend or terminate the Plan at any earlier time.
Upon termination of the Plan, no additional Awards shall be granted under the Plan; provided,
however, that the terms of the Plan shall continue in full force and effect with respect to
outstanding Awards and Shares issued under the Plan.

17.2 Awards. Subject to the terms and conditions and the limitations of the Plan, the
Committee may in the exercise of its sole discretion modify, extend or renew the terms of
outstanding Awards granted under the Plan, or accept the surrender of outstanding Awards (to the
extent not theretofore exercised); provided, however, that the Committee shall not have the
authority to accept the surrender or cancellation of any Options and any SARs that relate to such
Options outstanding hereunder (to the extent not theretofore exercised) and grant new Options and
any SARs that relate to such new Options hereunder in substitution therefore (to the extent not
theretofore exercised) at an Exercise Price that is less than the Exercise Price of the Options
surrendered or canceled. The foregoing shall not limit any adjustments made under Section 4.4 of
the Plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 17.2, no modification of an Award shall,
without the consent of the Participant, impair any rights or obligations under any Awards
theretofore granted under the Plan.

18. Miscellaneous.

18.1 No Individual Rights. No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award
under the Plan, or having been selected as a Participant for one Award, to be so selected again.

fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant. To the extent any person holds any
obligation of the Company by an Award granted under the Plan, such obligation shall merely

person any right, title or interest in any assets of the Company.

rates: (i) a floating per annum rate of interest equal to the Applicable Base Rate, or (ii) a per

(i) A request for a Eurodollar Loan (a “Eurodollar Loan Request”) must be received by

Illinois on any Business Day time will be processed and funded by the Agent on the third
Business Day thereafter.

(ii) If pursuant to the Eurodollar Loan Request, the initial Interest Period of any
Eurodollar Loan commences on any day other than the first Business Day of any month, then
the initial Interest Period of such Eurodollar Loan shall end on the first day of the
following calendar month, notwithstanding the Interest Period specified in the Eurodollar
Loan Request, and the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Loan shall be equal to Eurodollar
for an interest period equal to the length of such partial month, plus the Applicable
Margin. Thereafter, each Eurodollar Loan shall automatically renew (a “Eurodollar

Eurodollar Loan Request received by the Agent no later than 2:00 p.m. Chicago, Illinois time

Period of any Eurodollar Loan shall commence on the day on which the preceding Interest
Period for such Eurodollar Loan expires; (B) whenever the last day of any Interest Period
would otherwise occur on a day other than a Business Day, the last day of such Interest
Period shall be extended to occur on the next succeeding Business Day; (C) whenever the
first day of any Interest Period occurs on a date for which there is no numerically
corresponding date in the month in which such Interest Period terminates, such Interest
Period shall end on the last day of such month, unless such day is not a Business Day, in
which case the Interest Period shall terminate on the first Business Day of the following
month, provided, however, that so long as the Eurodollar Rollover remains in effect, all
subsequent Interest Periods shall terminate on the date of the month numerically
corresponding to the date on which the initial Interest Period commenced; and (D) the final
Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan must be such that its expiration occurs on or before
the Maturity Date. If at any time an Interest Period expires less than one month before the
Maturity Date, such Eurodollar Loan shall automatically convert to a Prime Loan on the last
day of the then existing Interest Period, without further demand, presentment, protest or
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding

when paid, in like funds, their Percentage of payments so received. In the event Agent fails to
cause such funds to be distributed to any Lender on the same Business Day when paid (or deemed
paid) to Agent, Agent shall pay interest to such Lender on such amounts at the Federal Funds Rate.

(b) Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under the Promissory Notes shall be stated to
be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day (unless an Interest Period expires on the next preceding Business Day
pursuant to Section 2.6(c), in which case the due date shall be the next preceding Business
Day) and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the
Applicable Rate during such extension.

(c) All computations of interest on the Loan shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days
for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the

rate hereunder shall, except for patent error, be final, conclusive, and binding upon Borrower for
all purposes.

(d) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, all payments and prepayments under this
Agreement shall be applied as follows: (a) first, to fees, expenses, costs and other similar
amounts then due and payable to Agent and the Lenders, including, without limitation any prepayment

of the Mortgaged Properties, as determined by the Agent from time to time; provided, however, if
the payment of the principal balance is made pursuant to a release of a Mortgaged Property pursuant
to Section 9.1, the principal payment shall first be applied towards the outstanding
principal balance of the Loan attributed to such Mortgaged Property by Agent at the time of payment
and any excess shall be allocated pro rata amongst any remaining Mortgaged Properties based upon
the portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan attributable to each of such Mortgaged
Properties as determined by Agent. Any prepayment of the Loan shall not extend or postpone the
Maturity Date or reduce the amount of any subsequent monthly payment of principal and interest due

determine, in its sole discretion.

determination shall, except for patent error, be final, conclusive and binding upon Borrower for
all purposes) that on any date for determining the Applicable Eurodollar Rate for any Interest
Period, by reason of any circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, or Agent’s
position in such market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable
interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Applicable Eurodollar Rate, then, and
in any such event, Agent shall forthwith give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to

Applicable Base Rate then in effect.

such Lender in good faith with any law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in

Lender, the Notifying Lender shall give prompt notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to Agent,
and Agent to Borrower of such determination.

(b) Upon the giving of the notice to Agent and Borrower referred to in Section 2.12(a)
above, such Lender’s Commitment shall immediately convert into a Loan bearing interest at the
Applicable Base Rate, provided that, in such event, Borrower shall not be liable for any costs
referred to in Section 2.15(ii) hereof resulting solely by reason of such conversion
occurring prior to the last day of a Interest Period.

Section 2.13 Increased Costs.

(a) If, by reason of (x) after the date hereof, the implementation of or any change
(including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve or capital
adequacy requirements) in, or in the interpretation by any Governmental Authority or any other
recognized authority of, any law or regulation, or (y) the compliance with any guideline or request
from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or quasi-Governmental Authority exercising
control over banks or financial institutions generally (whether or not having the force of law)
adopted or becoming effective after the date hereof:

(i) any Lender (or its Lending Office) shall be subject to any tax, duty, or other
charge, with respect to the Loan or its obligation to make the Loan, or shall change the
basis of taxation of payments to any Lender of the principal of or interest on the Loan or
its obligation to make the Loan (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net
income of such Lender or its Lending Office imposed by the jurisdiction in which such
Lender’s principal executive office or Lending Office is located); or

(ii) any reserve, special deposit, or similar requirement (including, without
limitation, any reserve, special deposit, or similar requirement imposed by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System) against assets of, deposits with or for the account
of, or credit extended by, any Lender or its Lending Office shall be imposed or deemed
applicable or any other condition affecting the Loan shall be imposed on such Lender or its
Lending Office or the interbank Eurodollar market; and as a result thereof there shall be
any cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or maintain the Loan (except to the extent
already included in the determination of the Applicable Eurodollar Rate for the Loan), or
there shall be a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender or its
Lending Office, then Borrower shall from time to time, upon written notice and demand by
Agent, pay to Agent for the account of such Lender, within five (5) Business Days after the
date specified in such notice and demand, additional amounts sufficient to indemnify such
Lender against such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost
and setting forth in reasonable detail the reason for the adjustment and the calculation
thereof, submitted to Borrower and Agent by such Lender, shall, except for patent error, be
final, conclusive, and binding for all purposes. In the event that a Lender becomes aware
of the imposition of a cost to such Lender or a reduction in the amount to be received or
receivable by such Lender or its Lending Office which is an additional cost pursuant to this
Section 2.13, such Lender shall notify Agent and Borrower in writing of such
imposition or reduction. With respect to costs or reductions incurred by a Lender pursuant
to this Section 2.13 relating to any period in which the Loan is in effect, the
provisions of this Section 2.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and
the payment of the Promissory Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) If the Lenders shall notify Borrower in writing that at any time, because of the
circumstances described in clause (x) or (y) in Section 2.13(a) or any other circumstances
arising after the Closing Date and relating to any period in which the Loan is in effect affecting
the Lenders or the interbank Eurodollar market or the Lenders’ position in such market, the
Applicable Eurodollar Rate, as determined by Agent, will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost
to the Lenders of funding the Loan subject to such rate, then thereafter, the Loan shall bear
interest at the Applicable Base Rate, provided that in such event, Borrower shall not be liable for
any costs referred to in Section 2.15(i) hereof resulting solely by reason of such
conversion occurring prior to the last day of a Interest Period.

Section 2.14 Change of Lending. Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to
designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to its Commitment affected by the matters or
circumstances described in Sections 2.11, 2.12 or 2.13 to reduce the liability of Borrower
or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to
such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion.

Section 2.15 Funding Losses. Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon such Lender’s
written request to Agent and Agent’s delivery thereof to Borrower (which request shall set forth
the basis for requesting such amounts and which request shall, absent patent error, be final,
conclusive, and binding upon Borrower for all purposes), for all losses, expenses, and liabilities
(including, without limitation, any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it
to make or carry the Loan to the extent not recovered by such Lender in connection with the
re-employment of such funds), which such Lender may sustain: (i) if any repayment of any portion
of the Loan occurs on a date which is not the last day of the Interest Period; or (ii) if, for any
reason, Borrower defaults in its obligation to repay the Loan when required by the terms of this
Agreement. With respect to losses, expenses and liabilities which a Lender may sustain as
described in this Section 2.15 relating to any period in which its Commitment is in effect,
the provisions of this Section 2.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
payment of the Promissory Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.16 Taxes. All payments made by Borrower under this Agreement and the Promissory
Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of,
any present or future income, stamp, or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees,
deductions, reserves or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or
assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding in the case of each Lender, net income taxes and
franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on such Lender as a result of a
present or former connection between the jurisdiction of the government or taxing authority
imposing such tax and such Lender (excluding a connection arising solely from such Lender having
executed, delivered, or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this
Agreement or the Promissory Notes) or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or
therein (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions and
withholdings being hereinafter called “Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any
amounts payable to any Lender hereunder or under the Promissory Notes, the amounts so payable to
such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to such Lender (after payment of
all Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts
specified in this Agreement and the appropriate Promissory Note. Whenever any Taxes are payable by
Borrower pursuant to applicable law, as promptly as possible thereafter Borrower shall send to
Agent a certified copy of an original official receipt received by Borrower showing payment
thereof. If any Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or
fails to remit to Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower
shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Agent and each Lender for any incremental taxes,
interest, or penalties that may become payable by Agent or any Lender as a result of any such
failure. With respect to any obligations of Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16
relating to any period in which the Loan is in effect, the agreements in this Section 2.16,
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Promissory Notes and all
other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.19 Fees. In consideration of Agent and the Lenders establishing the facility
hereunder and making the Loan to Borrower, Borrower shall pay to Agent on behalf of the Lenders,
fees in the amount of $116,736.00 which shall be disbursed to the Lenders on a pro rate basis in
accordance with their Commitment (collectively, the “Fees”).

proceeding, or any governmental investigation or any arbitration, in each case pending or, to the
knowledge of Borrower, threatened against Borrower, an Executing Subsidiary, or any property of
Borrower or an Executing Subsidiary before any court or arbitrator or any governmental or
administrative body, agency, or official (i) which challenges the validity of this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents or (ii) which if adversely determined, and taking into account any
insurance with respect thereto, could result in a Material Adverse Change.

Section 4.7 Compliance with Law. Borrower and each Executing Subsidiary is in compliance
with all Requirements of Law, its organizational documents and all Contractual Obligations binding
on or affecting it or any of its properties. The execution and delivery by Borrower of this
Agreement, the Promissory Notes and the Loan Documents do not, and the performance by Borrower of
this Agreement, the Promissory Notes and each of the Loan Documents will not, (a) violate any

such plans within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. 2510.3-101 and (iii) neither Borrower nor any Executing
Subsidiary is or will be a “government plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA.

Section 4.11 Improvements.

(a) All of the improvements located on the Mortgaged Properties and the use of such
improvements are being lawfully occupied and any and all certificates and permits required by
applicable laws, rules, regulations, and ordinances or in connection with the use, occupancy, and
operation thereof have been obtained.

(b) No portion of any of the Mortgaged Properties, nor any improvements located on such
Mortgaged Properties that are material to the operation, use, or value thereof, have been damaged
in any respect as a result of any fire, explosion, accident, flood, or other casualty, except to
the extent that the same have been restored to their condition prior thereto.

(c) No written notices of violation of any federal, state, or local law or ordinance or order
or requirement have been received by Borrower, General Partner, Advisor, Thompson, any Executing

trade names, copyrights, technology, know-how, and processes necessary for the conduct of its
business as currently conducted (the “Intellectual Property”) except for those the failure to own
or license which could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the
business, financial condition, results of operations, or prospects of Borrower. No claim has been
asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual
Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor does Borrower know
of any valid basis for any such claim. The use of such Intellectual Property by Borrower does not
infringe on the rights of any Person, except for such claims and infringements that, in the
aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business,
financial condition, results of operations, or prospects of Borrower.

Section 4.13 No Burdensome Restrictions. To Borrower’s knowledge, no Requirement of Law or
Contractual Obligation of Borrower could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Change.

Section 4.14 Taxes. Borrower and each Executing Subsidiary has filed or caused to be filed
all tax returns that, to the knowledge of Borrower, are required to be filed and has paid all taxes
shown to be due and payable on such returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its
property and all other taxes, fees, or other charges now due and payable imposed on it or any of
its property by any Governmental Authority (other than any the amount or validity of which are
currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which
adequate reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of Borrower). No tax
Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect to
any such tax, fee, or other charge.

Section 4.15 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. Borrower is not an “investment
company,” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Borrower is not subject to regulation under any
federal or state statute or regulation which limits its ability to incur Indebtedness.

Section 4.16 Insurance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the
Mortgages and subject to Section 4.16(b), Borrower maintains upon or in connection with
each of its Properties:

(a) Property and casualty insurance coverage evidenced by original or certified copies of
insurance policies or binders for such insurance, together with evidence that the premiums for such
policies have been paid current. Such insurance policies shall insure each of the Mortgaged
Properties for 100% of their full replacement cost in so-called “all risk” form and with coverage
for floods, terrorism, earthquakes (except as provided in Section 4.16(b)) and such other
hazards (including “collapse” and “explosion” and mold related damage) as Agent may require for
each of the Mortgaged Properties and as are consistent with reasonable and customary requirements
in the industry. Such insurance policies shall contain replacement cost and agreed amount
endorsements (with no reduction for depreciation), an endorsement providing Building Ordinance
Coverage and an endorsement covering the costs of demolition and increased costs of construction
due to the enforcement of building codes or ordinances. To the extent there exists a boiler on the

Mortgaged Properties insuring against breakdown or explosion of such equipment on a replacement
cost value basis. Borrower shall also furnish business interruption or loss of rental income
insurance in connection with all policies covering property and boiler and machinery insurance for

Section 4.16(a) shall (i) be with companies and in amounts and with coverage and
deductibles satisfactory to Agent and (ii) include endorsements naming the Lenders as loss payees
and shall have endorsed thereon the standard mortgagee clause in favor of the Lenders.

(b) The earthquake insurance provided for in Section 4.16(a) but only for the
Mortgaged Properties and only to the extent (i) any Mortgaged Property is located in an earthquake
prone area and (ii) such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates.

(c) Liability and worker’s compensation insurance evidenced by original or certified copies of
insurance policies, binders for such insurance policies, or certificates of insurance, together
with evidence that the premiums for such policies have been paid current. Such insurance shall
provide for (i) commercial general liability (including contractual liability) covering each of the
Mortgaged Properties and Borrower’s operations thereon in an amount not less than $2,000,000 per
occurrence and not less than $5,000,000 in the aggregate; (ii) commercial automobile liability with
a limit not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit and endorsed to cover owned, hired and
non-owned automobiles; and (iii) worker’s compensation insurance covering all of Borrower’s
employees and contracted parties (including their employees) situated at the Mortgaged Properties

so-called “products-completed operations endorsement” and mold related liability coverage.

(d) All companies issuing policies required under this Section 4.16 shall have a
current Best Insurance Reports rating no less favorable than “A”, and all such companies shall be

policies required under this Section 4.16 shall provide that (i) the insurance evidenced
thereby shall not be canceled or modified without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice
from the insurance carrier to Agent; and (ii) no act or thing done by Borrower or any Affiliate
thereof shall invalidate the policy as against the Lenders. Borrower shall deliver renewal
certificates of all policies of insurance required under this certificate, together with written
evidence that the premiums are paid current, at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of
the then current policy.

Section 4.17 Mortgaged Properties.

(a) Borrower has good and marketable title to all of its assets and properties, and each
Executing Subsidiary has good and marketable title to the applicable Mortgaged Property, subject to
no mortgage, security interest, pledge, lien, charge, encumbrance or title retention or other
security agreement or arrangement of any nature whatsoever, except Permitted Encumbrances.
Borrower and the applicable Executing Subsidiary will forever warrant and defend the title of the
Mortgaged Properties against the lawful claims and demands of all persons whomsoever (subject to
the Permitted Encumbrances) for such Mortgaged Properties.

(b) There are no pending or, to the best knowledge of Borrower, threatened proceedings or
actions to revoke, attack, invalidate, rescind, or modify in any material respect (i) the zoning of
any Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or (ii) any building or other permits heretofore issued
with respect to any Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or asserting that any such zoning or
permits do not permit the operation of any Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or that any
improvements located on such Mortgaged Property cannot be operated in accordance with its intended
use or is in violation of applicable Use Requirements.

(c) The Mortgage covering each such Mortgaged Property creates a valid and enforceable first
Lien on such property described therein, as security for the repayment of the Indebtedness incurred
by Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, subject only to the Permitted
Encumbrances applicable to such Mortgaged Property.

(d) The Collateral Pool is now, and so long as the Loan remains in effect or any monetary
obligation to Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the Promissory Notes or the other Loan
Documents shall remain unpaid, will be owned solely by Borrower or the applicable Executing
Subsidiary, and said Collateral Pool, including the proceeds resulting from the sale or other
disposition thereof, is and will remain free and clear of any Liens except the Permitted
Encumbrances and the other Liens granted pursuant to the Loan Documents to Agent and the Lenders,
which Liens to Agent and the Lenders shall, at all times, be first and prior on the Collateral Pool
and all proceeds resulting from the sale or other disposition thereof, and no further action need
be taken to perfect said Liens.

(e) Neither the existence of any improvements upon a Mortgaged Property nor the present use or
condition of any Mortgaged Property violate in any material respect any Use Requirements. With
respect to each Mortgaged Property, neither the zoning nor any other right to carry on the present
use of such Mortgaged Property is to any extent dependent upon or related to any other real estate.
Each Mortgaged Property may be operated in its current fashion and Borrower has received no
written notices from any Governmental Authorities alleging any violation by any Mortgaged Property
of any Requirement of Law, including but not limited to applicable Use Requirements.

(f) There are no pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, contemplated or threatened
proceedings relating to any (i) taking by eminent domain or other condemnation of any portion of
any Mortgaged Property, (ii) condemnation or relocation of any roadways abutting any Mortgaged
Property and (iii) denial of access to any Mortgaged Property from any point of access to such
Mortgaged Property.

(g) Each Mortgaged Property has adequate and permanent legal access to water, gas, and
electrical supply, storm, and sanitary sewerage facilities, other required public utilities (with
respect to each of the aforementioned items by means of either a direct connection to the source of
such utilities or through connections available on publicly dedicated roadways directly abutting
such Mortgaged Property), parking, and means of access between such Mortgaged Property and public
highways over recognized curb cuts; and all of the foregoing comply with all applicable Use
Requirements.

(h) Each Mortgaged Property is taxed separately without regard to any other real estate and
constitutes a legally subdivided lot under all applicable Use Requirements (or, if not subdivided,
no subdivision or platting of such Mortgaged Property is required under applicable Requirements of
Law), and for all purposes each Mortgaged Property may be mortgaged, conveyed, and otherwise dealt
with as an independent parcel.

Section 4.18 Full and Accurate Disclosure. No statement of fact made by or on behalf of
Borrower in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, or any certificate or financial
statement furnished by Borrower to Agent contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits
to state any material fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading.

Section 4.19 Solvency. Within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, the
Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act as in effect in any

prior to or after an Event of Default) any Mortgaged Property is damaged by fire, earthquake or
other casualty in such a manner so that it is unlikely, in Agent’s judgment, that such Mortgaged
Property will be restored on or prior to the date which is six (6) months prior to the Maturity
Date to the same physical, leased and operating condition as it exists prior to such casualty,
Borrower shall, within twenty (20) days of Agent’s written request, direct that the insurance
proceeds from the casualty be delivered over to Agent, to be applied by Agent to repayment of the
Loan or Borrower’s other obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

ARTICLE VI

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

Section 6.1 Events of Default. The occurrence and continuance of any of the following
specified events shall constitute an “Event of Default”:

(a) Payments. Borrower shall fail to pay (i) within five (5) days after the due date
thereof, any principal of the Loan hereunder (including, without limitation, by mandatory
prepayment), provided, however, that such five (5) day period shall not operate to extend the

(b) Specified Covenants. Borrower shall fail to observe or perform any of the
covenants contained in Sections 5.l(n), (o), (v) and (w) and 5.3(b) hereof (collectively,
the “Specified Covenants”) and shall thereafter fail to remedy the same within ten (10) Business
Days of the occurrence thereof by prepaying the Loan in accordance with the terms of Section
2.8 hereof in amounts sufficient to render Borrower in compliance with the Specified Covenants,
provided that the foregoing provisions of this Section shall in no event be deemed to permit
Borrower to prepay the Loan except in strict accordance with the terms of Section 2.8
hereof.

(c) Negative Covenants. Borrower shall fail to observe any of the covenants specified
in Sections 5.3(a), (c) through (i), and (k) through (p).

the event that a breach of a covenant described in clause (ii) above cannot be cured within thirty
(30) days after notice thereof and Borrower has during such 30-day period commenced to cure such
breach and thereafter diligently pursues all necessary efforts to effect a cure, an Event of
Default shall be deemed only to have occurred if the breach either cannot be remedied, or remains
unremedied, for sixty (60) days after the occurrence thereof.

(e) Representations. Any representation, warranty, or statement made or deemed to be
made by Borrower or any of their officers under or in connection with this Agreement shall have
been incorrect in any material respect as of the date hereof, or as of the date deemed to have been

voluntary case concerning itself under Title 11 of the United States Code entitled “Bankruptcy” as

case is commenced against any of the foregoing entities and the petition is not dismissed within
ninety (90) days after commencement of the case; or a custodian (as defined in the Bankruptcy Code)
is appointed for, or takes charge of, all or any substantial part of the property of any of the
foregoing entities; or any of the foregoing entities commences any other proceeding under any

for a period of thirty (30) days during which execution shall not be effectively stayed or deferred

insurance, such longer period during which Borrower is appealing or otherwise contesting such
judgment in good faith).

(i) Material Adverse Change. Any Material Adverse Change shall occur.

Section 6.2 Global Remedies. Upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default,
and at any time thereafter, if any Event of Default shall then be continuing, Agent may and shall
upon the written request of the Required Lenders, by written notice to Borrower, take any or all of
the following actions, without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders to enforce its claims against
Borrower: (i) declare the Loan immediately terminated; (ii) declare all or any portion of the
principal of and any accrued interest on the Loan and all other obligations owing hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents, to be, whereupon the same shall become, forthwith due and payable
without presentment, demand, protest, or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived
by Borrower; (iii) foreclose on any portion of the Collateral Pool concurrently or in such order as
Agent may from time to time see fit; or (iv) take any action permitted under any Loan Document;
provided, that, if any Event of Default specified in Section 6.1(g) shall occur, the result
which would occur upon the giving of written notice by Agent to Borrower, as specified in clauses
(i) and (ii) above, shall occur automatically without the giving of any such notice.

Section 6.3 Marshaling; Waiver of Certain Rights; Recapture. Neither Agent nor the Lenders
shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Borrower or any other party or
against or in payment of any or all of the obligations of such parties. To the extent permitted by
law, Borrower waives and renounces the benefit of all valuation, appraisement, homestead,
exemption, stay, redemption, and moratorium rights under or by virtue of the constitution and laws
of the state in which the Mortgaged Properties are located and of any other state or of the United
States, now existing or hereafter enacted. To the extent Agent or any Lender receives any payment
by or on behalf of Borrower, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to Borrower or its
estate, trustee, receiver, custodian, or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal
law, common law, or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the
obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced, or satisfied by the amount so repaid shall
be reinstated by the amount so repaid and shall be included within the liabilities of Borrower to
such party as of the date such initial payment, reduction, or satisfaction occurred, together with
interest at the Default Rate. Borrower agrees that (i) Agent on behalf of the Lenders shall have
the right to pursue all of its rights and remedies in one proceeding, or separately and
independently in separate proceedings from time to time, as Agent, in its sole and absolute
discretion, shall determine from time to time, (ii) the Collateral Pool may be sold at such
proceeding or proceedings in one or more sales and in such portions or combinations as Agent, in
its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine, (iii) Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall not
be required to marshal assets, sell any portion of the Collateral Pool in any inverse order of
alienation, or be subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, (iv) the
exercise by the Lenders of any remedies against any one item of the Collateral Pool will not impede
the Lenders from subsequently or simultaneously exercising remedies against any other item of the
Collateral Pool, and (v) all Liens and other rights, remedies, or privileges provided to Agent and
the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect
until Agent and the Lenders have exhausted all of their remedies against the Collateral Pool and
all of the Collateral Pool has been foreclosed, sold or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of
the Promissory Notes and the other obligations of Borrower to Agent and the Lenders. Each Lender
and its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, counsel and agents shall not incur any
liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral Pool, or any part thereof, in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement or any Loan Document, or for the failure to sell or offer for sale
the Collateral Pool, or any part thereof, for any reason whatsoever. Borrower waives any claims
against each Lender and its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, counsel and agents
arising with respect to the price at which the Collateral Pool, or any part thereof, may have been
sold by reason of the fact that such price was less than the aggregate amount of the indebtedness
due under the Promissory Notes, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 6.4 Application of Proceeds.

(a) All proceeds received by Agent or the Lenders in respect of the repayment of any sums due
hereunder or in connection with a foreclosure sale of all or any portion of the Collateral Pool
after the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be applied: first, to the costs of enforcement of
the Lenders’ rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; second, to any unpaid fees
payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority as Agent, in
its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine but subject to the rights of the Lenders; third,
to any accrued and unpaid interest (including all interest owing at the Default Rate) on the Loan;
fourth, to the principal amount of the Loan; and fifth, if any excess proceeds exist, to Borrower
or any party entitled thereto as a matter of law.

(b) Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deposit any proceeds in its
possession which are available under clause (v) of Section 6.4(a) above into a court of
competent jurisdiction for determination by such court of the disposition of such excess proceeds
and upon such deposit, Agent shall have no further liability with respect to such proceeds. All
costs and expenses of Agent in connection with such action may be deducted or charged by Agent
against such excess proceeds and shall otherwise be reimbursed by Borrower upon demand. Agent
shall have the right, but not the obligation, to request and rely on the instructions of Borrower
in connection with the disposition of any such excess proceeds and, upon compliance with such
instructions, shall have no further liability with respect to such proceeds.

Section 6.5 Attorneys-in-Fact. Borrower hereby makes, constitutes and appoints Agent, and
its agents and designees, the true and lawful agents and attorneys-in-fact of Borrower, with full
power of substitution, to take any or all of the following actions during the continuance of an
Event of Default: (i) to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to Borrower relating to
the Collateral Pool, (ii) to notify and direct the United States Post Office authorities by notice
given in the name of Borrower and signed on its behalf, to change the address for delivery of all
mail addressed to Borrower relating to the Collateral Pool to an address to be designated by Agent,
and to cause such mail to be delivered to such designated address where Agent may open all such
mail and remove therefrom any notes, checks, acceptances, drafts, money orders or other instruments
in payment of the Collateral Pool in which Agent has a security interest hereunder and any
documents relative thereto, with full power to endorse the name of Borrower upon any such notes,
checks, acceptances, drafts, money orders or other form of payment or on the Collateral Pool or
security of any kind and to effect the deposit and collection thereof, and Agent shall have the
further right and power to endorse the name of Borrower on any documents otherwise relating to such
Collateral Pool, and (iii) to do any and all other things necessary or proper to carry out the
intent of this Agreement and to perfect and protect the Liens and rights of Agent created under
this Agreement, including, without limitation, to claim, bring suit, settle or adjust any insurance
proceeds claims relating to the Collateral Pool. Borrower agrees that neither the Lenders nor any
of their officers, directors, shareholders, employees, counsel, agents, designees or
attorneys-in-fact will be liable for any acts of commission or omission, or for any error of
judgment or mistake of fact or law, except for any acts of gross negligence or willful misconduct.
The powers granted hereunder are coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable during the term
hereof.

ARTICLE VII

AGENCY AND INTERCREDITOR

Section 7.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints LaSalle
Bank National Association, as Agent of such Lender under the Loan Documents, and each such Lender
irrevocably authorizes LaSalle Bank National Association, to act as Agent for such Lender, to take
such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the Loan Documents and to
exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to Agent by the terms of
this Agreement and the Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in
this Agreement and the Loan Documents, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no
implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities on the part of
Agent shall be read into any of the Loan Documents or otherwise exist against Agent. The
provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders, and Borrower shall
not have any rights as a third party beneficiary or otherwise under any of the provisions of this
Article VII. In performing its functions and duties under the Loan Documents, Agent shall
act solely as Agent or the Lenders and does not assume nor shall Agent be deemed to have assumed
any obligation or relationship of trust or agency with or for Borrower or any of such party’s
respective successors and assigns. Bank of America, National Association is appointed
Documentation Agent. No Lender identified in this Agreement as a “syndication agent”,
“documentation agent”, “co-agent”, “arranger”, or “book runner” shall have any right under this
Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no
Lender so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender.

Section 7.2 Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan
Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel
(including its internal counsel) concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not
be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it
with reasonable care.

Section 7.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Agent shall not be (a) liable for any action lawfully
taken or omitted to be taken by it or any Person described in Section 7.2 under or in
connection with any Loan Document (except for those actions arising from Agent’s own gross
negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any
recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by Borrower contained in any Loan
Document, or by Borrower in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or
provided for in, or received under or in connection with any Loan Document or for the value,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any Loan Document or any
such certificate, report, statement or other document, or for any failure of Borrower, or any
Lender to perform or observe its respective obligations hereunder or thereunder. Unless Agent
shall have been requested in writing to do so by a Lender on such Lender’s behalf, Agent shall not
be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or
performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of any Loan Document, or to
inspect the properties, or the books or records of Borrower. This Section 7.3 is intended
to govern solely the relationship between Agent, on the one hand, and the Lenders, on the other.

Section 7.4 Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit,
letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, electronic mail message,
statement, order or other document or conversation (including by telephone) believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon
advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, its internal counsel and
counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be
fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall
first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders required pursuant to this Agreement or it
shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and
expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

Section 7.5 Notice of Default and Other Notices From Borrower.

(a) Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or
Event of Default unless (i) Agent has received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring
to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a
“notice of default,” or (ii) Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, has actual knowledge of such
Default or Event of Default. In the event that Agent receives such a notice, Agent shall promptly
give notice thereof to the Lenders. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until Agent
shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as Agent shall
deem advisable and in the best interests of the Lenders.

(b) Each Lender agrees that it shall promptly notify Agent in writing after it first has
knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or of any matter which in such Lender’s judgment
adversely affects any Lender’s respective interests in the Commitment, which notice will describe
the Default or Event of Default or matter in reasonable detail. Agent shall give a copy of any
such notice received by Agent to the other Lenders if such notice pertains to a Decision by the
Lenders pursuant to Sections 7.14 or 7.15 hereof.

(c) Agent shall distribute to the Lenders copies of material notices and information furnished
by the Borrower to Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, which may be distributed
by posting on Intralinks or other customary distribution methods.

Section 7.6 Non-Reliance on Agent and the Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly
acknowledges that neither Agent, nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or affiliates, has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act
by Agent hereafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of Borrower
shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Agent. Each Lender represents and
warrants to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender
and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, (a) made its own
appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and
other condition, creditworthiness and solvency of Borrower, (b) satisfied itself as to the due
execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency and value of all of the
Loan Documents and all other instruments and documents furnished pursuant to any Loan Document, and
(c) made its own decision as to its Commitment pursuant to this Agreement. Each Lender also
represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender, and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make
its own credit analyses, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this
Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the
business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of
Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required pursuant to the Loan
Documents to be furnished by Agent to the Lenders, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility
to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations,
property, prospects, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower which may come
into the possession of Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

Section 7.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (in its capacity as
such) and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (to the extent not
reimbursed by Borrower and without limiting the obligation, if any, of Borrower to do so), ratably
in accordance with their Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or
nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel for Agent
or such Person in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding
commenced or threatened, whether or not Agent or such Person shall be designated a party thereto)
that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent or such Person as a
result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, any of the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents or the execution, delivery or performance of any Loan Document
(but excluding any such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of Agent or such Person as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). The
agreements in this subsection shall survive the payment of the Promissory Notes and all other
amounts payable hereunder.

Section 7.8 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. LaSalle Bank National Association and its
affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business
with Borrower as though it were not Agent hereunder. With respect to Loans made or renewed by it
and any Promissory Note issued to it, Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this
Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent.

Section 7.9 Agent’s Resignation or Removal. Agent may resign at any time by giving notice
thereof to the Lenders and Borrower. In addition, the Agent may be removed at any time with good
cause by written notice received by the Agent from the Required Lenders, such removal to be
effective on the date specified by the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the
Required Lenders shall designate in writing another Person as the successor Agent. If such
proposed successor Agent agrees in writing to act as Agent in accordance with the terms hereof,
such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges, duties and obligations of the resigning or removed Agent, and the resigning or removed
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Agent under this Agreement. After any
retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this Article VII shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under
this Agreement.

Section 7.10 Appointment of a Substitute Agent. Subject to the provisions of Section
7.9 above, LaSalle Bank National Association shall be Agent under this Agreement and the Loan
Documents until the Loan Documents have been terminated and the Lenders have been paid in full. In
the event that LaSalle Bank National Association has a conflict which requires that it not act as
Agent in connection with certain matters as to which LaSalle Bank National Association deems a
conflict of interest exists, LaSalle Bank National Association may, at its option and upon thirty
(30) days’ prior written notice to Borrower and the Lenders, request a substitute Agent be selected
in accordance with the terms of this Section to act as Agent with respect to such matters. LaSalle
Bank National Association shall request a substitute Agent in accordance with the terms of this
Section in the event that LaSalle Bank National Association has sold its entire interest in the
Commitment to a Purchasing Lender (as hereafter defined). Within fifteen (15) days after receipt
of such notice, the Required Lenders shall select a proposed substitute agent and shall notify
Borrower of the identity of such proposed substitute agent. After any retiring substitute Agent’s
resignation hereunder as substitute Agent, the provisions of this Section 7.10 and
Section 8.4 hereof shall inure to the benefit of such retired substitute Agent as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was substitute Agent under this Agreement.

Section 7.11 Loans. Each Lender shall make available to Borrower such Lender’s Commitment
subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents. Borrower shall look solely
to each Lender for the performance of such Lender’s obligations, covenants and agreements under the
Loan Documents on the part of each Lender to be performed or observed with respect to its
Commitment, subject to and upon the conditions, limitations and restrictions set forth herein and
in the other Loan Documents, as evidenced by the signature of each such party hereto. In the event
any Lender has not made available its Commitment, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), and
each Lender authorizes Agent to advance for such Lender’s account, pursuant to the terms hereof,
the amount of the such Commitment draw to be made by such Lender and each Lender agrees to
reimburse Agent in immediately available funds for any amount so advanced on its behalf. If any
such reimbursement is not made in immediately available funds on the same day on which Agent shall
have made such amount available on behalf of any Lender, such Lender shall also pay interest
thereon to Agent at the Federal Funds Rate. In the event that Agent advances a Lender’s Commitment
draw pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.11 and such Lender fails to reimburse Agent,
Borrower shall repay such amounts to Agent, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate
until so repaid.

Section 7.12 Priority of Loans. Each Lender’s Commitment shall be of equal priority with
each other Lender’s Commitment, and no portion of any Commitment shall have priority or preference
over any other Commitment or the security therefor.

Section 7.13 Books and Records. Agent will keep customary books and records relating to
the Loan, and such books and records shall be available at Agent’s office for the Lenders’
reasonable inspection during Agent’s normal business hours.

Section 7.14 Decisions of the Lenders. (a) Except as expressly set forth in Sections
7.15 and 7.16 hereof, all decisions, consents, waivers, approvals and other actions
(collectively, “Decisions”) authorized to be taken under or in connection with this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents by any Lender shall be taken by Agent in its discretion reasonably
exercised, subject to the provisions of Section 7.4 hereof. Except as expressly provided
in Sections 7.15 and 7.16 hereof, Agent (i) may consent or withhold consent to any action
by Borrower, (ii) may exercise or refrain from exercising any power, rights or remedies hereunder
or under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in respect of the Loans, and/or (iii) may waive any
conditions in any Loan Documents, so long as such consent, exercise or waiver would not, in Agent’s
judgment reasonably exercised, represent a departure from the standards followed by Agent in the
administration of loans held by Agent entirely for its own account. Agent may request a Decision
with respect to matters described in Sections 7.15 and 7.16 hereof at any time by making a
request for such Decision in writing to all of the Lenders. Any such request (x) shall contain an
adequate description together with relevant background information of the Decision being requested,
(y) shall specify the reasons for such request, and (z) shall state the effect of not responding to
such notice as set forth in this Section 7.14. Agent will provide the Lenders with such
additional information as the Lenders may reasonably request to assist such Lenders in reaching a
Decision, to the extent such information is in Agent’s possession or under its control. The
requested Decision shall be deemed approved by the Lenders if and when Agent receives written
approval from the required percentage of the Lenders as specified in Sections 7.15 and 7.16
hereof, as the case may be. If a Lender does not deliver to Agent a written objection thereto
within ten (10) Business Days after hand delivery, mailing by certified mail, return receipt
requested, delivery to an express courier, or, so long as a copy is sent by another method
specified in this sentence, sent by facsimile transmission of the request by Agent, such Lender
shall be deemed to have approved the requested Decision. If Agent is unable to contact the usual
representatives of a Lender for any reason, Agent will make a good faith effort to contact other
representatives of such Lender as necessary to reach a Decision within the allotted time. To the
extent that Agent reasonably deems necessary, any such Decision may also be requested
telephonically by Agent from each Lender with such telephonic request to be confirmed in writing by
Agent. Any Decision as to which Agent has made telephonic requests for approval shall be deemed
approved by the Lenders after Agent has received the written approval of the required percentage of
the Lenders as specified in Sections 7.15 and 7.16 hereof. Borrower shall be promptly
notified of the Decision, if such Decision was made in response to a request by Borrower.

Section 7.15 Unanimous Approvals by the Lenders. No written amendment, supplement,
modification or waiver which adds, deletes, changes or waives any provisions of the Loan Documents
shall (a), without the prior approval of all Lenders, (i) extend either the Maturity Date or any
installment or required prepayment of the Loan; (ii) reduce the rate or extend the time of payment
of interest on the Loan; (iii) reduce the principal amount of the Loan; (iv) reduce the fees
payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any other fee payable to the Lenders;
(v) change any Lender’s Commitment (except as the same may be reduced by any prepayment of the Loan
permitted under this Agreement); or (vi) change any provision of this Section 7.15 or the
definition of Required Lenders; or (b) amend, modify or waive any provision of any Loan Document,
if the effect thereof is to affect the rights or duties of Agent, without the written consent of
the then Agent. Any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver shall apply to each of the
Lenders equally and shall be binding upon Borrower, the Lenders, Agent and all future holders of
the Promissory Notes. In the case of any waiver, Borrower, the Lenders and Agent shall be restored
to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Promissory Notes, and any
Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, but no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right
consequent thereon.

Section 7.16 Approvals by the Required Lenders.

(a) Upon Agent’s receipt of a notice of default (as defined in Section 7.5(a) hereof)
with respect to an Event of Default, Agent shall consult with the Lenders in respect of any such
Event of Default to determine a course of action which is acceptable to the Required Lenders.
Subject to Section 7.15 hereof, Agent shall pursue any such course of action approved by
the Required Lenders in respect of any such Event of Default, including, without limitation,
acceleration of the Loan. In the event that the Required Lenders cannot decide which remedies, if
any, are to be pursued, Agent may commence proceedings on behalf of the Lenders; provided, however,
that if at any time thereafter the Required Lenders shall direct that a different or additional
remedial action shall be taken, such different or additional remedial action shall be taken in lieu
of or in addition to such proceedings.

(b) Agent shall not, without the prior approval of the Required Lenders, (i) enter into
written amendments, supplements, modifications or waivers for the purpose of adding, deleting,
changing or waiving any of the provisions of Article V or Section 6.1, except to
the extent such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver requires the unanimous consent of the
Lenders pursuant to Section 7.15 hereof, or (ii) enter into written amendments,
supplements, modifications or waivers for the purpose of adding, deleting, changing or waiving any
provision of the Loan Documents, except to the extent such amendment, supplement, modification or
waiver requires the unanimous consent of the Lenders (pursuant to Section 7.15 hereof), or
(iii) except as otherwise specifically set forth in Article III, consent to, approve, or
waive the requirement of receipt of, any documents, certificates or other agreements or statements
delivered or to be delivered by Borrower or any other Person pursuant to Article III hereof
or (iv) consent to or permit (if not expressly permitted under the Loan Documents) the assignment
or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under any Loan Document, consent to
any merger or consolidation or sale, lease or other disposal of all or a substantial part of
Borrower’s property or assets, modify any financial covenants, waive any Default or Event of
Default, or waive or release any lien on any of the Mortgaged Properties or commence any judicial
or nonjudicial foreclosure proceeding, in each case without the written consent of all the Lenders.

(c) All losses, costs, expenses, disbursements, liabilities, fees (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and disbursements), obligations, damages, suits, actions and penalties of any kind
or nature whatsoever (collectively, a “Loss”) incurred by Agent in connection with the Loans
(except any Loss resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) shall be borne by the Lenders in accordance with
each Lender’s Percentage.

(d) Each Lender shall, upon demand by Agent, reimburse Agent (to the extent not otherwise
reimbursed by Borrower) for such Lender’s Percentage of (i) any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
Agent in good faith in connection with any Event of Default under the Loan Documents (including,
without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel), and (ii) any other
expenses incurred in good faith to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower in connection with the
enforcement of the Loan Documents.

(e) Borrower hereby consents and agrees to the provisions of Sections 7.14 through
7.16 and any modifications thereof entered into by Agent and the Lenders of such provisions and
specifically acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding any provisions in the Loan Documents
requiring action by the “Lenders” or similar provisions in connection with the declaration of an
Event of Default, the acceleration of the indebtedness evidenced by the Loan Documents and/or the
exercise of any remedies under the Loan Documents, Agent is hereby empowered to act on behalf of
the Lenders in accordance with the provisions hereof and the authority of Agent with respect to any
action taken by Agent pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement shall not be contested by
Borrower by reason of any different or conflicting provision contained in any of the Loan
Documents.

Section 7.17 Management of Acquired Collateral. If, following any Event of Default, Agent
acquires title to one or more Mortgaged Properties by foreclosure under the Mortgage (or by
deed-in-lieu of foreclosure), Agent shall hold title to such Mortgaged Property in its own name, as
Agent for the Lenders to the extent of their Commitments. Each Lender hereby irrevocably waives
any right to seek a partition of any interest in the Mortgaged Property. Agent shall have the sole
and exclusive right to make (or to refrain from making) all decisions with respect to the leasing,
encumbering, use, operation, maintenance, improvement, repair and restoration of the Mortgaged
Property (and any improvements located thereon); provided, however, that Agent shall not, without
the prior written consent of the Required Lenders (a) sell (or lease as a whole) the Mortgaged
Property or encumber the Mortgaged Property with a mortgage, deed of trust or similar instrument
securing indebtedness for borrowed money, or (b) make any single expenditure with respect to the
Mortgaged Property in an amount in excess of $100,000 (exclusive of taxes and assessments,
insurance premiums, utility charges and expenditures required to comply with applicable laws), or
(c) make any material repairs, restorations and/or improvements to the Mortgaged Property (except
to the extent required by applicable laws). Subject to the foregoing, each Lender, pro rata in
accordance with its Percentage, shall reimburse Agent on demand for all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by Agent in connection with the sale, lease, encumbering, use, operation,
maintenance, improvement, repair and restoration of the Mortgaged Property (including all costs and
charged, insurance premiums, common area maintenance charges, leasing commissions, tenant
improvement costs, repair costs and restoration costs). The indemnity provisions contained in
Section 7.7 above shall apply equally to actions (and omissions) by Agent with respect to
the Mortgaged Property so acquired by Agent. Each Lender shall participate pro rata in accordance
with their respective Percentage in all income, expenses, profits and losses of the Mortgaged
Property. Without limitation on the foregoing, Agent shall endeavor to consult with the Lenders
prior to making any material decision regarding the Mortgaged Property.

Section 8.2 Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this or the other
Loan Documents, nor consent to any departure by either party therefrom, shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the party or its agent, if authorized
to act on its behalf, against whom enforcement of such waiver or amendment is sought, and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specified purpose
for which given.

Section 8.3 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Lenders
in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of
dealing between Borrower and Agent or the Lenders shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy
hereunder. The rights and remedies herein and in the other Loan Documents expressly provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that the Lenders would otherwise have. No
notice to or demand on Borrower not required hereunder or under the other Loan Documents in any

any circumstances without notice or demand.

Section 8.4 Payment of Expenses, Etc.Borrower shall:

(a) whether or not the transactions hereby contemplated are consummated, pay all reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Agent in the administration (both before and after the

connection with the preparation, execution, and delivery of, preservation of rights under,
enforcement of, and, after an Event of Default, refinancing, renegotiation, or restructuring of,
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein;
any amendment, waiver, or consent relating thereto (including, without limitation, the reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel for Agent);

(b) After an Event of Default, pay all reasonably out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the
Lenders (including advice of counsel as to the rights and duties of the Lenders) in connection with
such Event of Default;

(c) to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay and hold Agent and the Lenders harmless
from and against any and all present and future stamp, recording, and other similar taxes and fees
with respect to the foregoing matters and save the Lenders harmless from and against any and all
liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission to pay such taxes and fees; and

(d) indemnify Agent and the Lenders and each of their officers, directors, employees,
Affiliates, representatives, and agents from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all
costs, losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by any of them (whether or not
any of them is designated a party thereto) arising out of or by reason of any litigation, or other
proceeding related to any actual or proposed use by Borrower of the proceeds of any of the Loans or
Borrower entering into and performing of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or resulting
from the ownership of any Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees
and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation, or
other proceeding; provided that Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any such Person to the
extent of any costs, losses, liabilities, claims, damages, or expenses caused by the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Person.

If and to the extent that the obligations of Borrower under this Section 8.4 are
unenforceable for any reason, Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the
payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law. Borrower’s
obligations under this Section 8.4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the
payment of the sums due hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

Section 8.5 Right of Setoff. In addition to and not in limitation of all rights of offset
that the Lenders may have under applicable law, the Lenders shall, upon the occurrence of any Event
of Default and whether or not the Lenders have made any demand or Borrower’s obligations are
matured, have the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of Borrower’s obligations hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents, all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional
or final) of Borrower then or thereafter held by, and other indebtedness or property then or
thereafter owing by, the Lenders.

Section 8.6 Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto,
provided that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its interest hereunder without the prior
written consent of the Lenders.

Section 8.7 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the rights and obligations of the parties
thereunder shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by the law (without giving effect
to the conflict of law principles thereof) of the State of Illinois except as otherwise
specifically provided in the Loan Documents.

(b) Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
or any document related thereto may be brought in the courts of the State of Illinois or of the
United States of America for the Northern District of Illinois, and by execution and delivery of
this Agreement, Borrower hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its property generally and
unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any
objection, including, without limitation, any objection to the laying of venue or based on the
grounds of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such
action or proceeding in such respective jurisdictions. Borrower agrees that any process in any
proceeding in any such court may be served on Borrower through the United States mails in
accordance with Section 8.1.

(c) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES
HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR
PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROMISSORY NOTE OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND FROM
ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

(d) Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Lenders to serve process in any other manner
permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against Borrower in any
other jurisdiction.

Section 8.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and
by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered
shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 8.9 Headings Descriptive. The headings contained in this Agreement are for
convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of
this Agreement.

Section 8.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the
entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and all
prior discussions, negotiations, term sheets, commitment letters, agreements, correspondence and
document drafts with respect to such matters are merged herein and therein. Neither the Lenders
nor any employee of the Lenders has authorized to make any representation or agreement upon which
Borrower or its Affiliates may rely unless such matter is set forth in this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents.

Section 8.11 Further Assurances. Borrower hereby agrees to, promptly upon the request of
the Lenders, execute and deliver to the Lenders such additional documents and to provide such
additional information as the Lenders may reasonably require to carry out or confirm the terms of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

Section 8.12 Participation. Any Lender may at any time after the execution and delivery of
this Agreement, sell to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its
Commitment, any Promissory Note held by such Lender and/or any other interest of such Lender
hereunder (in respect of any such Lender, its “Credit Exposure”). Notwithstanding any such sale by
a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s rights and obligations
hereunder shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance
thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Promissory Note for all purposes hereunder
(except as expressly provided below), and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with
such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder. Borrower also
agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and
2.15 hereof. Each Lender agrees that any agreement between such Lender and any such
Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not restrict such Lender’s fight to
agree to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to any Loan Document, except where the
result of any of the foregoing would be to extend the final maturity of any Loan or any regularly
scheduled installment thereof or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon
or reduce the principal amount thereof.

Section 8.13 Assignments.

(a) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable
law, at any time after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and from time to time assign to
any Lender or any affiliate thereof or to any other Person (each a “Purchasing Lender”) all or any
part of its Credit Exposure, provided that the Credit Exposure acquired by such assignee shall
equal or exceed $5,000,000. Borrower, Agent and the Lenders agree that to the extent of any
assignment, the Purchasing Lender shall be deemed to have the same rights and benefits under the
Loan Documents and the same obligation as it would have had if it had been a Lender which was one
of the original parties hereto. The consent of Agent and, provided no Default or Event of Default
has occurred, Borrower shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective, which consents
will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided that Agent shall be entitled to
continue to deal solely and directly with the assignor Lender in connection with the interests so
assigned to the Purchasing Lender unless and until such Purchasing Lender executes a supplement to
this Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit M attached hereto (a “Form of
Assignment and Assumption Agreement”). Borrower acknowledges that the provisions of this
Section 8.13 relate only to absolute assignments of a Lender’s Credit Exposure and that any
restrictions thereon do not pertain to or prohibit assignments creating security interests,
including any pledge or assignment by a Lender of its Credit Exposure or Promissory Notes to a
Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Requirements of Law.

(b) Upon (i) execution of a Form of Assignment and Assumption Agreement, (ii) delivery of an
executed copy thereof to Borrower and Agent, (iii) payment by such Purchasing Lender to such
transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender
and such Purchasing Lender, and (iv) payment to the Agent of an assignment fee in the amount of
[$3,000.00], such transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to the extent
of such assignment and such Purchasing Lender shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this
Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement to the
same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and no further consent or action by Borrower,
the Lenders or Agent shall be required. Such Form of Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be
deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the
addition of such Purchasing Lender as a Lender. Promptly after the consummation of any transfer to
a Purchasing Lender pursuant hereto, the transferor Lender, Agent and Borrower shall make
appropriate arrangements so that a replacement Promissory Note is issued to such transferor Lender
and a new Promissory Note is issued to such Purchasing Lender, in each case in principal amounts
reflecting such transfer.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 8.13, the Agent
shall always maintain its Commitment in an amount which is equal to or greater than the respective
Commitments of each other Lender.

Section 8.14 Withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Participant
or other assignee of all or any part of the Credit Exposure of any Lender, other than a Purchasing
Lender, shall be entitled to any of the benefits of Section 2.16 hereof.

Section 8.15 Amounts Received by the Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it shall act as a
trustee for the benefit of the other Lenders to the extent of the respective interests of the other
Lenders in the Loan with respect to all sums of any kind paid to or received by such Lender in
payment of all or a portion of the Loan, by or on behalf of Borrower.

Section 8.16 No Joint Venture. Neither the execution of this Agreement nor the selling of
an interest in the Loans nor any agreement to share in profits or losses as provided herein is
intended to be, nor shall it be construed to be, the formation of a partnership or joint venture
among the parties to this Agreement.

Section 8.17 Acknowledgment by Parties Hereto. The agreement to and acceptance of this
Agreement by the parties hereto, indicated by the execution of this Agreement, shall evidence (a)
each party’s acceptance of all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and (b) each party’s consent to Agent’s acting as Agent on behalf of the Lenders with
regard to all aspects of the administration, enforcement and collection of the Loan and to all
matters pertaining to the Loan Documents as provided for herein.

Section 8.18 Right of the Lenders and Agent to Transact Business. The Lenders, Agent
and/or any of their respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee
under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Borrower, its general
partners, including General Partner, any partners of the general partners, or any other Person
without any duty to account therefor to the other Lenders and/or Agent, as the case may be.

Section 8.19 Sharing of Payments. Each of the Lenders agrees that if it should receive any
amount under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (whether by voluntary payment, by
realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross
action, by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents, or otherwise) which is applicable
to the payment of the Loan of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by the
other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of the Loan then owed and due to such
Lender bears to the total of the Loan then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to
such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without
recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Loan owing to such Lenders in such
amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Lenders in such amount;
provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender,
such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery,
but without interest.

Section 8.20 Limitation of Liability. Except as set forth in Section 7.11 above,
no claim may be made by Borrower or any other Person against Agent or any Lender or any of their
Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agent of any of such Persons for any
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract
or any other theory of liability arising out of or under Article VII; and Borrower hereby
waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim for any such damages, whether or not
accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

Section 8.21 Reliance by Borrower. Borrower shall have the right to rely, without
investigation, upon all notices, approvals or other actions of Agent. All provisions of this
Agreement requiring submission by Borrower of information or other documentation, or the obtaining
of any approvals or consents, shall be deemed to apply to Agent only and Borrower shall not
otherwise be required to obtain any approvals of any other Lenders. All actions, information,
reports, notices and any and all other action by Agent to Borrower shall be binding upon all
Lenders.

Section 8.22 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in this Agreement.

Section 8.23 Indemnity. Except for an Indemnified Loss which is finally adjudicated by a
court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted directly and proximately from the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of the Lenders or, if applicable Agent, Borrower agrees absolutely to
protect, defend, indemnify and hold the Lenders, Agent, their respective officers, directors,
employees and agents and each other Person controlling any of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnified
Party”) harmless from and against any and all harm, loss, liability, damage, suite, claim, expense,
fees and costs (including, without limitation, court costs and attorneys’ fees) (each, an
“Indemnified Loss”) suffered or incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with any claim,
demand, suit or proceeding brought or asserted by any Person against an Indemnified Party arising
out of or relating to the Lenders’ and Agent’s entering into or carrying out the terms of this
Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or being the holder of a Promissory Note or any of the Loan
Documents or resulting from Borrower’s performance hereunder including, without limitation, any
injury or damage to any Person or property occurring on or about any of the Mortgaged Properties.
This Section 8.23 is intended to apply only to third party claims against the Indemnified
Parties, and not the Lenders’ claims against Borrower if an Event of Default has occurred, which
shall be limited as provided in Article XI. This Section 8.23 shall survive the
repayment of the Indebtedness, the cancellation of the Promissory Notes, and the foreclosures or
reconveyance of the Lenders’ security interests in any applicable Mortgaged Properties.

Section 8.24 Knowledge. For purposes of this Agreement, the phrases “to the knowledge of
Borrower” or “to the best knowledge of Borrower” shall mean, after reasonable inquiry of Property
Manager, the knowledge of Thompson, Scott D. Peters and Andrea R. Biller.

Section 8.25 Transitional Arrangements.

(a) This Agreement shall supersede the Original Agreement in its entirety, except as otherwise
provided in this Section 8.25. On the Closing Date, the rights and obligations of the
parties under the Original Agreement, the “Notes” and the “Note Assumptions” and any Letters of
Credit (as such terms are defined in the Original Agreement) shall be subsumed within and be
governed by this Agreement, the Notes and the Note Assumptions; provided however, that any of the
obligations and liabilities of Borrower under the Original Agreement outstanding under the Original
Agreement shall, for purposes of this Agreement, be obligations and liabilities hereunder. The
Lenders’ interests in such obligations and liabilities shall be reallocated on the Closing Date in
accordance with each Lender’s applicable Percentage.

(b) Upon its receipt of the Notes and the Note Assumptions to be delivered hereunder on the
Closing Date, each Lender will promptly return to Borrower, marked “Cancelled” or “Replaced,” the
notes and note assumptions of Borrower held by such Lender pursuant to the Original Agreement. In
the event that any Lender does not return its note or note assumption pursuant to the Original
Agreement within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Borrower shall be entitled to receive an
affidavit from such Lender with respect to the unreturned note.

(c) All interest and all commitment, facility and other fees and expenses due as of the
Closing Date or accruing under or in respect of the Original Agreement shall be calculated as of
the Closing Date (with the Unused Facility Fee (as defined in the Original Agreement) and Letter of
Credit Fee (as defined in the Original Agreement) prorated for any fractional periods), and shall
be paid on the Closing Date in accordance with the method specified in the Original Agreement as if
such agreement were still in effect.

Section 8.26 Replacement Documents. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Agent or
any Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of a Promissory Note or any Loan
Document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of such Promissory Note or Loan Document, Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a
replacement Promissory Note or Loan Document, dated the date such Promissory Note or Loan Document
was lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of
like tenor.

ARTICLE IX

the sales price (the “Release Price”), together with all amounts required under Section
2.15 hereof;

(e) The Release Price of the Mortgaged Property shall not be less than the minimum amount
required to cause the outstanding balance of the Loan (after giving effect to the release of the
Mortgaged Property) to not exceed the then applicable Borrowing Base Loan Amount after giving
effect to the requested release, including, without limitation, the required Loan to Value Ratio
and Imputed Debt Service Coverage Ratio;

(f) Borrower shall submit evidence that the Minimum Collateral Pool and the Minimum Net Worth
shall be satisfied after giving effect to the requested release; and
