provided by law from time to time, and each such right or remedy may be
exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as
Lender deems expedient. The exercise by Lender of any right or remedy shall not
constitute a cure or waiver of any default, nor invalidate any notice of default
or any act done pursuant to any such notice, nor prejudice Lender in the
exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver of any default shall be implied
from any omission by Lender to take action on account of such default if such
default persists or is repeated. No waiver of any default shall affect any
default other than the default expressly waived, and any such waiver shall be
operative only for the time and to the extent stated. No waiver of any provision
of any Loan Document shall be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of
the same provision. Lender's consent to or approval of any act by Borrower
requiring further consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render
unnecessary Lender's consent to or approval of any subsequent act. Lender's

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

acceptance of the late performance of any obligation shall not constitute a
waiver by Lender of the right to require prompt performance of all further
obligations; Lender's acceptance of any performance following the sending or
filing of any notice of default shall not constitute a waiver of Lender's right
to proceed with the exercise of its remedies for any unfulfilled obligations;
and Lender's acceptance of any partial performance shall not constitute a waiver
by Lender of any rights relating to the unfulfilled portion of the applicable
obligation.

     7.4  Cure of Events of Default.  Notwithstanding the fact that a curable
          -------------------------
default by Borrower under the Loan Documents does not become an "Event of
Default" until the applicable cure period, if any, has elapsed, various
provisions of the Loan Documents include the phrase, "while any Event of Default
remains uncured," or otherwise imply that Events of Default may be cured. No
such provision shall be construed to give Borrower any right to cure any Event
of Default. Notwithstanding the fact that the Loan Documents do not permit
Borrower to cure any Event of Default, however, any Event of Default shall be
deemed cured in the event that (a) Lender, in its absolute discretion, elects to
accept a cure and acknowledges to Borrower in writing that such Event of Default
shall be deemed fully cured, or (b) any applicable law provides Borrower with an
absolute right (which by law may neither be waived by Borrower nor conditioned
upon Lender's consent) to cure such Event of Default and Borrower timely
performs all actions required by such law to effect such cure.

8.   MISCELLANEOUS.
     -------------

     8.1  Actions.  Lender shall have the right to commence, appear in and
          -------
defend any action or proceeding relating to the rights or obligations of the
parties to any Loan Document.

     8.2  No Representations by Lender.  By accepting or approving anything
          ----------------------------
required to be performed or given to Lender under the Loan Documents, including
any certificate, financial statement, survey, appraisal or insurance policy,
Lender shall not be deemed to have warranted or represented the sufficiency or
legal effect of the same, and no such acceptance or approval shall constitute a
warranty or representation by Lender to anyone.

     8.3  Indemnity.  Borrower shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Lender
          ---------
and its directors, officers, agents and employees (collectively, the
"indemnitees") from and against:

          (a) all claims, demands and causes of action asserted against any
indemnitee by any Person if the claim, demand or cause of action directly or
indirectly relates to (i) a claim, demand or cause of action that the Person has
or asserts against Borrower or any Guarantor; (ii) the payment of any
commission, charge or brokerage fee incurred in connection with the Loan; (iii)
any act or omission of Borrower or any

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

other Person with respect to the Property; or (iv) the ownership, occupancy or
use of the Property; and

          (b) all liabilities, losses and other costs (including court costs and
attorneys' fees) incurred by any indemnitee as a result of any claim, demand or
cause of action described in subparagraph (a).

Lender's indemnity rights shall not be limited, prejudiced or impaired in any
way by any finding or allegation that Lender's conduct is active, passive or
subject to any other classification or that Lender is directly or indirectly
responsible under any theory for any act or omission by Borrower or any other
Person.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be obligated to
indemnify Lender with respect to the consequences of any act of gross negligence
or willful misconduct which Lender is determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction (sustained on appeal, if any) to have committed.  Borrower's
obligations under this Section shall survive the cancellation of the Note.

     8.4  Obligations Unconditional and Independent.  Borrower's obligations
          -----------------------------------------
under the Loan Documents are unconditional and independent and shall be
performed in accordance with the Loan Documents under all circumstances.
Notwithstanding the existence at any time of any obligation or liability of
Lender to Borrower, or any other claim by Borrower against Lender, in connection
with the Loan or otherwise, Borrower hereby waives any right it might otherwise
have (a) to offset any such obligation, liability or claim against Borrower's
obligations under the Loan Documents or (b) to claim that the existence of any
such outstanding obligation, liability or claim excuses the nonperformance by
Borrower of any of its obligations under the Loan Documents.

     8.5  Survival of Representations and Warranties.  All representations and
          ------------------------------------------
warranties of Borrower and each Guarantor in the Loan Documents shall survive
the making of the Loan and have been or will be relied on by Lender
notwithstanding any investigation made by Lender.

     8.6  Notices.  All notices, demands, approvals and other communications
          -------
provided for in the Loan Documents shall be in writing and be delivered to the
appropriate party at its address as follows:

          Attention:  John D. Hussey, Esquire

Addresses for notice may be changed from time to time by written notice to all
other parties.  All communications shall be effective when actually received;
provided, however, that nonreceipt of any communication as the result of a
change of address of which the sending party was not notified or as the result
of a refusal to accept delivery shall be deemed receipt of such communication.

     8.7  No Third Parties Benefited.  This Agreement is made for the purpose of
          --------------------------
setting forth rights and obligations of Borrower and Lender, and no other Person
shall have any rights hereunder or by reason hereof.

     8.8  Binding Effect; Assignment of Obligations.  This Agreement shall bind,
          -----------------------------------------
and shall inure to the benefit of, Borrower and Lender and their respective
successors and assigns. Borrower shall not assign any of its rights or
obligations under any Loan Document without the prior written consent of Lender,
which consent may be withheld in Lender's absolute discretion. Any such
assignment without such consent shall, at Lender's option, be void.

     8.9  Counterparts.  Any Loan Document other than the Note may be executed
          ------------
in counterparts and any party may execute any counterpart, each of which shall
be deemed to be an original and all of which, taken together, shall be deemed to
be one and the same document. The execution of any Loan Document by any party
shall not become effective until such document is executed by all of the parties
thereto.

                                      -17-

     8.10 Prior Agreements; Amendments; Consents.  This Agreement (together with
          --------------------------------------
the other documents executed pursuant hereto) contains the entire agreement
between Lender and Borrower with respect to the Loan, and all prior
negotiations, understandings and agreements are superseded by this Agreement. No
modification of any Loan Document (including waivers of rights and conditions)
shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom
enforcement of such modification is sought, and then only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose given.

     8.11 Governing Law.  All of the Loan Documents shall be governed by, and
          -------------
construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California.

     8.12 Severability of Provisions.  No provision of any Loan Document that is
          --------------------------
held to be unenforceable or invalid shall affect the remaining provisions, and
to this end all provisions of the Loan Documents are hereby declared to be
severable.

     8.13 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of all of the Loan
          -------------------
Documents.

     8.14 Civil Code Section 2822.  In the event that, at any time, any surety
          -----------------------
exists that is liable upon only a portion of Borrower's obligations under the
Loan Documents and Borrower provides partial satisfaction of any such
obligation(s), Borrower hereby waives any right it would otherwise have, under
Section 2822 of the California Civil Code, to designate the portion of the
obligation to be satisfied. The designation of the portion of the obligation to
be satisfied shall, to the extent not expressly made by the terms of the Loan
Documents, be made by Lender rather than Borrower.
