make a term loan, in Dollars (the "TERM LOAN") to the Borrower on the Funding
Date, in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the principal amount
of $250,000,000. The aggregate amount of the Term Loan to be made hereunder
shall not exceed Two Hundred Fifty Million Dollars ($250,000,000). The Term Loan
shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their then

responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to
make a Term Loan hereunder nor shall the Term Loan Commitment of any Lender be
increased or decreased as a result of any such failure. The Term Loan
Commitments, with respect to the making of the Term Loan (and not with respect
to the obligations of the Lenders to convert or continue any Loans), shall
expire on January 20, 2006.

              (b) Notice of Borrowing. The Borrower shall provide to the
Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing, signed by it (x) no later than 12:00

                                      -27-
<PAGE>

              (c) Making of Term Loans. (i) Each Lender shall deposit an amount
equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan with the Administrative Agent at
its office in New York, New York, in immediately available funds, not later than
12:00 noon (New York time) on the Funding Date. Subject to the fulfillment of
the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.1, the Administrative Agent
shall make the proceeds of such amounts received by it available to the Borrower
at the Administrative Agent's office in New York, New York on the Funding Date
(or on the date received if later than such Funding Date) and shall disburse
such proceeds in accordance with the Borrower's disbursement instructions as set
forth in the Notice of Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to deposit the
amount described above with the Administrative Agent on the Funding Date shall
not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder to make its Term Loan
on the Funding Date. In the event the conditions precedent set forth in Section
6.1 are not fulfilled as of the Funding Date, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly return, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount
deposited by each Lender to such Lender.

              (ii) The Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender has
funded its Term Loan and is depositing the proceeds thereof with the
Administrative Agent on the Funding Date, and the Administrative Agent in its
sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, disburse a corresponding
amount to the Borrower on the Funding Date. If the Term Loan proceeds
corresponding to that amount are advanced to the Borrower by the Administrative
Agent but are not in fact deposited with the Administrative Agent by such Lender
on or prior to the Funding Date, such Lender agrees to pay, and in addition the
Borrower, agrees to repay, to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date
such amount is disbursed to or for the benefit of the Borrower until the date
such amount is paid or repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the average
Federal Funds Rate for such period. If such Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent the corresponding amount, the amount so paid shall
constitute such Lender's Term Loan as of the Funding Date, and if both such
Lender and the Borrower shall pay and repay such corresponding amount, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Borrower such corresponding
amount. This Section 2.1(c)(ii) does not relieve any Lender of its obligation to
make its Term Loan on the Funding Date.

         2.2. USE OF PROCEEDS OF LOANS. The proceeds of the Loans issued for the
account of the Borrower hereunder shall be used for the purposes of general
working capital needs of the Borrower and other general corporate purposes,
including acquisitions.

         2.3. TERM LOAN MATURITY DATE. (a) The Borrower promises to pay the Term
Loan Obligations and all other Obligations in full on the Term Loan Maturity
Date.

              (b) So long as (x) no Potential Event of Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) the representations and
warranties of the Borrower set forth in this Agreement are true and correct in
all material respects on and as of such election date (or, if such
representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a
specific date, as of such specific date), the Borrower may elect at least
fifteen (15) days prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date, to extend the Term Loan
Maturity Date for three (3) months as provided in this Section 2.3(b) by
providing written notice of such election to the Administrative Agent (which
shall promptly notify each of the Lenders). Such notice shall include a
confirmation in writing from the Borrower of its agreement to comply with the
covenant set forth in Section 2.3(c) and a certification as to the matters set
forth in clauses (x) and (y) in the preceding sentence. If on the initial Term
Loan Maturity Date (i) no Potential Event of Default under Section 11.1(a)(ii)
or Section 11.1(f) or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the
Borrower pays to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of the
Lenders based on their Pro Rata Shares, an extension fee equal to 0.25% of the
then outstanding principal amount of the Loans, and (iii) the Borrower has given
written notice to the Administrative Agent of such election to extend the Term
Loan Maturity Date within the time frame set forth in this Section 2.3(b), the
Term Loan Maturity Date shall be extended to June __, 2006 (the period from the
initial Term Loan Maturity Date until the Term Loan Maturity Date as so extended
being referred to herein as the "Extension Period").

              (c) The exercise of the Borrower's extension option pursuant to
Section 2.3(b) shall constitute and be deemed an agreement by the Borrower to
deliver to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date
(unless the Obligations are repaid in full prior to such date), mortgages on the
Acquisition Properties and related title insurance and legal opinions, in each
case reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. To facilitate such
delivery, the Administrative Agent shall perform its legal due diligence,
including title, environmental, survey and zoning review, and the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent shall negotiate the forms of the mortgages, title
insurance and legal opinions, promptly after the commencement of the Extension
Period. The Borrower shall cooperate diligently with the Administrative Agent in
delivering the due diligence materials requested by the Administrative Agent and
negotiating the mortgages, title insurance and legal opinions, and the Borrower
shall pay all reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agent associated
therewith, including title search, environmental, survey and zoning report
costs, reasonable legal fees and, if mortgages are recorded, all applicable
mortgage recording taxes and title insurance premiums. The Borrower shall
execute, notarize and deliver such mortgages to the Administrative Agent on or
before the Term Loan Maturity Date (as extended), but the Administrative Agent
shall not record same unless the Obligations are not repaid in full on or prior
to the Term Loan Maturity Date (as extended).

         2.4. AUTHORIZED AGENTS. On the Closing Date and from time to time
thereafter, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Officer's
Certificate setting forth the names of the employees and agents authorized to
request the Term Loan and to request a conversion/continuation of any Loan and
containing a specimen signature of each such employee or agent. The employees
and agents so authorized shall also be authorized to act for the Borrower in
respect of all other matters relating to the Loan Documents. The Administrative
Agent, the Arranger, and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely conclusively on
such employee's or agent's authority to request the Term Loan or such
conversion/continuation until the Administrative Agent and the Arranger receive
written notice to the contrary. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the
Arranger shall have any duty to verify the authenticity of the signature
appearing on the Notice of Borrowing or any Notice of Conversion/Continuation or
any other document, and, with respect to an oral request for such
conversion/continuation, the Administrative Agent and the Arranger shall have no
duty to verify the identity of any person representing himself or herself as one
of the employees or agents authorized to make such request or otherwise to act
on behalf of the Borrower. None of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or the
Lenders shall incur any liability to the Borrower or any other Person in acting
upon any telephonic or facsimile notice referred to above which the
Administrative Agent or the Arranger believe to have been given by a person duly
authorized to act on behalf of the Borrower and the Borrower hereby indemnifies
and holds harmless the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and each Lender from
any loss or expense the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or the Lenders might
incur in acting in good faith as provided in this Section 2.4; provided,
however, that Borrower shall not indemnify the applicable party for acts
resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                                  ARTICLE IV.
                            PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS

         4.1. PREPAYMENTS.

              (a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower may, at any time and from
time to time, prepay the Loans, in part or in their entirety, subject to the
following limitations. The Borrower shall give at least three (3) Business Days
prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent
shall promptly transmit to each Lender) of any prepayment in the entirety to be
made prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, which notice of prepayment
shall specify the date (which shall be a Business Day) of prepayment. When
notice of prepayment is delivered as provided herein, the outstanding principal
amount of the Loans on the prepayment date specified in such notice shall become
due and payable on such prepayment date. Each voluntary partial prepayment of
the Loans shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples
of $500,000 in excess of that amount (or such lesser amount in the event the
unpaid principal amount of any Loan is less than such minimum prepayment
amount). Eurodollar Rate Loans may be prepaid in part or in their entirety only
upon payment of the amounts described in Section 5.2(f). Any amounts repaid
pursuant to this Agreement may not be reborrowed.

              (b) No Penalty. The prepayments and payments in respect of
reductions and terminations described in clause (a) of this Section 4.1 may be
made without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 5.2(f)).

              (c) Mandatory Prepayment.

                  (i) If at any time from and after the Closing Date: (i) the
         Company or the Borrower merges or consolidates with another Person and
         the Company or Borrower, as the case may be, is not the surviving
         entity and does not control the management of such surviving entity, or
         (ii) the Company, the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or Consolidated
         Subsidiaries or the Management Company ceases to provide property
         management and leasing services to at least 80% of the total number of
         Projects in which the Borrower has a direct ownership interest (the
         date any such event shall occur being the "PREPAYMENT DATE"), the
         Borrower shall prepay the Loans in their entirety as if the Prepayment
         Date were the Term Loan Maturity Date. The Borrower shall immediately
         make such prepayment together with interest accrued to the date of the
         prepayment on the principal amount prepaid.

                  (ii) If the Borrower, the Company or any Subsidiary receives
         any Net Offering Proceeds or any Eligible Net Cash Proceeds, the
         Borrower shall apply 100% of such Net Offering Proceeds and Eligible
         Net Cash Proceeds to the prepayment of the Loans on the date such Net
         Offering Proceeds or Eligible Net Cash Proceeds are received until such
         time as the outstanding principal amount of the Loans on such date is
         less than 60% of the excess, if any, of (a) the aggregate purchase
         price of the Acquisition Properties which are Unencumbered over (b) the
         aggregate book value of the Acquisition Properties that have been sold,
         transferred or otherwise disposed of by the Borrower and its
         Subsidiaries since the Closing Date.

                                      -30-
<PAGE>

In connection with the prepayment of any Loan prior to the maturity thereof, the
Borrower shall also pay accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the
amount prepaid and any applicable expenses pursuant to Section 5.2(f). Each such
prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans of the Lenders in
accordance with Section 4.2(b). Any such repayment shall be applied first to
Base Rate Loans and second to Eurodollar Rate Loans. Amounts prepaid pursuant to
this Section 4.1(c) may not be reborrowed. Such prepayment shall not affect any
rights and remedies that the Agents and Lenders may otherwise have hereunder.

         4.2. PAYMENTS.

              (a) Manner and Time of Payment. All payments of principal of and
interest on the Loans and other Obligations (including, without limitation, fees
and expenses) which are payable to the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any
Lender shall be made without condition or reservation of right, in immediately
available funds, delivered to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon
(New York time) on the date and at the place due, to such account of the
Administrative Agent (or Arranger) as it may designate, for the account of the
Administrative Agent, the Arranger, or such Lender, as the case may be; and
funds received by the Administrative Agent (or Arranger) not later than 12:00
noon (New York time) on any given Business Day shall be credited against payment
to be made that day and funds received by the Administrative Agent (or Arranger)
after that time shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding
Business Day. Payments actually received by the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Lenders, or any of them, shall be paid to them by the
Administrative Agent promptly after receipt thereof.

              (b) Apportionment of Payments. (i) Subject to the provisions of
Section 4.2(b)(iv), all payments of principal and interest in respect of
outstanding Loans, all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any
other Obligations, shall be allocated among such of the Lenders as are entitled
thereto, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares or otherwise as
provided herein. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(b)(ii), all such
payments and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent from or for
the benefit of the Borrower shall be applied in the following order:

                            (A) to pay principal of and interest on any portion
              of the Loans which the Administrative Agent may have advanced on
              behalf of any Lender other than GSMC for which the Administrative
              Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower;

                            (B) to pay all other Obligations then due and
              payable, and

                            (C) as the Borrower so designates.

Unless otherwise designated by the Borrower, all principal payments in respect
of its Loans shall be applied first, to repay its outstanding Base Rate Loans,
and then to repay its outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans with those Eurodollar
Rate Loans which have earlier expiring Eurodollar Interest Periods being repaid
prior to those which have later expiring Eurodollar Interest Periods.

                                      -31-

                  (ii) After the occurrence of an Event of Default and while the
         same is continuing which results in an acceleration of the Obligations
         in accordance with Section 11.2, the Administrative Agent shall apply
         all payments in respect of any Obligations in the following order:

                            (A) first, to pay principal of and interest on any
              portion of the Loans which the Administrative Agent may have
              advanced on behalf of any Lender other than GSMC for which the
              Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender
              or the Borrower;

                            (B) second, to pay Obligations in respect of any
              fees, expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the
              Administrative Agent;

                            (C) third, to pay Obligations in respect of any
              fees, expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the
              Lenders;

                            (D) fourth, to pay interest due in respect of Loans;

                            (E) fifth, to the ratable payment or prepayment of
              principal outstanding on Loans; and

                            (F) sixth, to the ratable payment of all other
              Obligations.

The order of priority set forth in this Section 4.2(b)(ii) and the related
provisions of this Agreement are set forth solely to determine the rights and
priorities of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as among themselves. The
order of priority set forth in clauses (A) and (B) of this Section 4.2(b)(ii)
may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

                  (iii) Subject to Section 4.2(b)(iv), the Administrative Agent
         shall promptly distribute to the Arranger and each Lender at its
         primary address set forth on SCHEDULE LC hereto or as set forth in the
         Assignment and Acceptance by which it became a Lender, or at such other
         address as a Lender may request in writing, such funds as such Person
         may be entitled to receive, subject to the provisions of Article XII;
         provided that the Administrative Agent shall under no circumstances be
         bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of
         any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend all payments
         or seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions
         from the Requisite Lenders or an action in the nature of interpleader)
         in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or
         distribution contemplated hereby.

                  (iv) In the event that any Lender fails to fund its Pro Rata
         Share of the Term Loan which such Lender is obligated to fund under the
         terms of this Agreement (the funded portion of the Term Loan being
         hereinafter referred to as a "NON PRO RATA LOAN"), until the earlier of
         such Lender's cure of such failure and the termination of the Term Loan
         Commitments, the proceeds of all amounts thereafter repaid to the
         Administrative Agent by the Borrower and otherwise required to be
         applied to such Lender's share of all other Obligations pursuant to the
         terms of this Agreement shall be advanced to the Borrower by the
         Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender to cure, in full or in
         part, such failure by such Lender, but shall nevertheless be deemed to
         have been paid to such Lender in satisfaction of such other
         Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
         contrary:

                                      -32-
<PAGE>

                            (A) the foregoing provisions of this Section
              4.2(b)(iv) shall apply only with respect to the proceeds of
              payments of Obligations and shall not affect the conversion or
              continuation of Loans pursuant to Section 5.1(c);

                            (B) a Lender shall be deemed to have cured its
              failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan at such time
              as an amount equal to such Lender's original Pro Rata Share of the
              requested principal portion of the Term Loan is fully funded to
              the Borrower, whether made by such Lender itself or by operation
              of the terms of this Section 4.2(b)(iv), and whether or not the
              Non Pro Rata Loan with respect thereto has been repaid, converted
              or continued; and

                            (C) regardless of whether or not an Event of Default
              has occurred or is continuing, and notwithstanding the
              instructions of the Borrower as to its desired application, all
              repayments of principal which, in accordance with the other terms
              of this Section 4.2, would be applied to its outstanding Base Rate
              Loans shall be applied first, ratably to its Base Rate Loans
              constituting Non Pro Rata Loans and second, ratably to its Base
              Rate Loans other than those constituting Non Pro Rata Loans.

              (c) Payments on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made
by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes is stated to be due on a day which
is not a Business Day, the payment shall instead be due on the next succeeding
Business Day (or, as set forth in Section 5.2(b)(iii), the next preceding
Business Day).

         4.3. PROMISE TO REPAY; EVIDENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS.

              (a) Promise to Repay. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay when due,
without setoff or counterclaim, the principal amount of the Term Loan which is
made to it, and further agrees to pay all unpaid interest accrued thereon, in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes. The Borrower shall
execute and deliver to each Lender on or prior to the Closing Date, a promissory
note, in the form of EXHIBIT B attached hereto with blanks appropriately
completed, evidencing the Term Loans and thereafter shall execute and deliver
such other promissory notes as are necessary to evidence the Term Loans made to
it owing to the Lenders after giving effect to any assignment thereof pursuant
to Section 14.1, all in the form of EXHIBIT B attached hereto with blanks
appropriately completed (all such promissory notes and all amendments thereto,
replacements thereof and substitutions therefor being collectively referred to
as the "NOTES"; and "NOTE" means any one of the Notes).

              (b) Loan Account. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with
its usual practice an account or accounts (a "LOAN ACCOUNT") evidencing the
Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender from time to time, including the
amount of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to
time hereunder and under the Notes.

              (c) Control Account. The Register maintained by the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Section 14.1(c) shall include a control account, and a
subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be
recorded (i) the date and amount of the Loans made hereunder, any conversion or
continuation of the Loans, including the type of Loan and any Eurodollar
Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the effective date and amount of each
Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and the parties
thereto, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to
become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder or under the
Notes and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from
the Borrower hereunder and each Lender's share thereof.

                                      -33-

              (d) Entries Binding. The entries made in the Register and each
Loan Account shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error.

              (e) No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Agreement, any Note, or the Guaranties to the contrary, it is expressly
understood and agreed that nothing herein or therein shall be construed as
creating any liability on any Limited Partner, or any partner, officer,
shareholder or director of any Limited Partner or any officer, trustee, member,
director, or employee of the Borrower or any Guarantor, to pay any of the
Obligations other than liability arising under applicable law from or in
connection with (i) its own fraud or (ii) the misappropriation or misapplication
by it of proceeds of the Loans; but nothing contained in this Section 4.3(e)
shall be construed to prevent the exercise of any remedy allowed to the
Administrative Agent, the Arranger or the Lenders by law or by the terms of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents which does not relate to or result in such
an obligation by any Limited Partner or such other Persons to pay money.

                                   ARTICLE V.
                                INTEREST AND FEES

         5.1. INTEREST ON THE LOANS AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS.

              (a) Rate of Interest. All Loans and the outstanding principal
balance of all other Obligations shall bear interest on the unpaid principal
amount thereof from the Funding Date and such other Obligations are due and
payable until paid in full, except as otherwise provided in Section 5.1(d), as
follows:

                            (i) If a Base Rate Loan or such other Obligation, at
              a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate, as in
              effect from time to time as interest accrues, plus (B) the then
              Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans; and

                            (ii) If a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at a rate per annum
              equal to the sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate determined for the
              applicable Eurodollar Interest Period, plus (B) the then
              Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Loans.

The applicable basis for determining the rate of interest on the Loans shall be
selected by the Borrower at the time the Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation is delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative
Agent; provided, however, the Borrower may not select the Eurodollar Rate as the
applicable basis for determining the rate of interest on such a Loan if at the
time of such selection an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or if
Eurodollar Rate Loans are not available pursuant to Section 5.2(d) or (e). If on
any day any Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been timely
delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement specifying the basis for determining the rate of interest on that day,
then for that day interest on that Loan shall be determined by reference to the
Base Rate.

                                      -34-
<PAGE>

              (b) Interest Payments. (i) Interest accrued on each Loan, whether
a Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Loan shall be calculated on the last day of
each calendar month and shall be payable in arrears (A) on the first day of each
calendar month, commencing on the first such day following the Funding Date, (B)
upon the payment or prepayment thereof in full or in part, and (C) if not
theretofore paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of
the Loan.

              (ii) Interest accrued on the principal balance of all other
Obligations shall be calculated on the last day of each calendar month and shall
be payable in arrears (A) on the first (1st) Business Day of each calendar
month, commencing on the first such day following the incurrence of such
Obligation, (B) upon repayment thereof in full or in part, and (C) if not
theretofore paid in full, at the time such other Obligation becomes due and
payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

              (c) Conversion or Continuation. (i) The Borrower shall have the
option (A) to convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Base Rate Loans
to Eurodollar Rate Loans; (B) to convert all or any part of outstanding
Eurodollar Rate Loans having Eurodollar Interest Periods which expire on the
same date to Base Rate Loans on such expiration date; or (C) to continue all or
any part of outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans having Eurodollar Interest Periods
which expire on the same date as Eurodollar Rate Loans, and the succeeding
Eurodollar Interest Period of such continued Loans shall commence on such
expiration date; provided, however, no such outstanding Loan may be continued
as, or be converted into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan (i) if the continuation of, or
the conversion into, would violate any of the provisions of Section 5.2 or (ii)
if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Any conversion into or
continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans under this Section 5.1(c) shall be in a
minimum amount of $3,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of
that amount, except in the case of a conversion into or a continuation of the
entire Borrowing of Non Pro Rata Loans.

              (ii) To convert or continue a Loan under Section 5.1(c)(i), the
Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Administrative
Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days
in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date. A Notice of
Conversion/Continuation shall specify (A) the proposed conversion/continuation
date (which shall be a Business Day), (B) the principal amount of the Loan to be
converted/continued, (C) whether such Loan shall be converted and/or continued,
and (D) in the case of a conversion to, or continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate
Loan, the requested Eurodollar Interest Period. Promptly after receipt of a
Notice of Conversion/Continuation under this Section 5.1(c)(ii), the
Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender by facsimile transmission, or
other similar written form of transmission, of the proposed
conversion/continuation. Any Notice of Conversion/Continuation for conversion
to, or continuation of, a Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) given
pursuant to this Section 5.1(c)(ii) shall be irrevocable, and the Borrower shall
be bound to convert or continue in accordance therewith. In the event no Notice
of Conversion/Continuation is delivered as and when specified in this Section
5.1(c)(ii) with respect to outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans, upon the
expiration of the Eurodollar Interest Period applicable thereto, such Loans
shall automatically be converted to a Base Rate Loan.

              (d) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest
specified in Section 5.1(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement, effective
immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and for as long
thereafter as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the principal balance
of the Loans and other Obligations shall bear interest at a rate equal to (A) in
the case of any Eurodollar Rate Loans outstanding as of the date of occurrence
of any Event of Default, the sum of (x) the applicable Eurodollar Rate, plus (y)
six percent (6.0%) per annum, and (B) in the case of any Base Rate Loan
(including any Eurodollar Loan that is converted to a Base Rate Loan at
maturity) the sum of (x) the Base Rate, as in effect from time to time as
interest accrues, plus (y) five percent (5.0%) per annum.

                                      -35-
<PAGE>

              (e) Computation of Interest. Interest on all obligations shall be
computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during
which interest accrues and a year of 360 days. In computing interest on any
Loan, the Funding Date or the first day of a Eurodollar Interest Period, as the
case may be, shall be included and the date of payment or the expiration date of
a Eurodollar Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be excluded.

              (f) Eurodollar Rate Information. Upon the request of the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to the Borrower such information
with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate as may be so requested.

         5.2. SPECIAL PROVISIONS GOVERNING EURODOLLAR RATE LOANS.

              (a) Amount of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Eurodollar Rate Loan
shall be in a minimum principal amount of $3,000,000 and in integral multiples
of $500,000 in excess of that amount.

              (b) Determination of Eurodollar Interest Period. By giving notice
as set forth in Section 5.1(c), the Borrower shall have the option, subject to
the other provisions of this Section 5.2, to select an interest period (each, a
"EURODOLLAR INTEREST PERIOD") to apply to the Loans described in such notice,
subject to the following provisions:

                  (i) The Borrower may only select a Eurodollar Interest Period
         of one, two, or three months in duration;

                  (ii) In the case of immediately successive Eurodollar Interest
         Periods, each successive Eurodollar Interest Period shall commence on
         the day on which the next preceding Eurodollar Interest Period expires;

                  (iii) If any Eurodollar Interest Period would otherwise expire
         on a day which is not a Business Day, such Eurodollar Interest Period
         shall be extended to expire on the next succeeding Business Day if the
         next succeeding Business Day occurs in the same calendar month, and if
         there will be no succeeding Business Day in such calendar month, such
         Eurodollar Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding
         Business Day;

                  (iv) The Borrower may not select a Eurodollar Interest Period
         as to any Loan if such Eurodollar Interest Period terminates later than
         the Term Loan Maturity Date;

                  (v) The Borrower may not select a Eurodollar Interest Period
         with respect to any portion of principal of a Loan which extends beyond
         a date on which the Borrower is required to make a scheduled payment of
         such portion of principal of which the Borrower is aware on the date of
         such request, in the case of a payment pursuant to Section 4.1(c)
         hereof; and

                                      -36-
<PAGE>

                  (vi) There shall be no more than five (5) Eurodollar Interest
         Periods in effect at any time with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans.

         (c) Determination of Eurodollar Interest Rate. As soon as practicable
on the second Business Day prior to the first day of each Eurodollar Interest
Period (the "EURODOLLAR INTEREST RATE DETERMINATION DATE"), the Administrative
Agent shall determine (pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of
"Eurodollar Rate") the interest rate which shall apply to the Eurodollar Rate
Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable
Eurodollar Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or
by telephone or by facsimile confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to each
Lender. The Administrative Agent's determination shall be presumed to be
correct, absent manifest error, and shall be binding upon the Borrower.

         (d) Interest Rate Unascertainable, Inadequate or Unfair. In the event
that at least one (1) Business Day before any Eurodollar Interest Rate
Determination Date:

                  (i) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Reference Bank
         that deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being
         offered by the Reference Bank in the London interbank market for such
         Eurodollar Interest Period;

                  (ii) the Administrative Agent determines that adequate and
         fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rates
         by reference to which the Eurodollar Rate then being determined is to
         be fixed; or

                  (iii) the Requisite Lenders advise the Administrative Agent
         that the Eurodollar Rate for Eurodollar Rate Loans to be continued or
         converted will not adequately reflect the cost to such Requisite
         Lenders of obtaining funds in Dollars in the London interbank market in
         an amount substantially equal to such Lenders' Eurodollar Rate Loans in
         Dollars and for a period equal to such Eurodollar Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the
Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (until the Administrative Agent notifies the
Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist)
the right of the Borrower to elect to have Loans bear interest based upon the
Eurodollar Rate shall be suspended and each outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan
shall be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current
Eurodollar Interest Period therefor, notwithstanding any prior election by the
Borrower to the contrary.

         (e) Illegality. (i) If at any time any Lender determines (which
determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding
upon all parties) that the making or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan
has become unlawful or impermissible by compliance by that Lender with any law,
governmental rule, regulation or order of any Governmental Authority (whether or
not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would
be unlawful or would result in costs or penalties), then, and in any such event,
such Lender may give notice of that determination, in writing, to the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly
transmit the notice to each other Lender.

                  (ii) When notice is given by a Lender under Section 5.2(e)(i),
         (A) the Borrower's right to request from such Lender and such Lender's
         obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans to the Borrower shall
         be immediately suspended, and (B) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loan
         or Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately, or if
         permitted by applicable law, no later than the date permitted thereby,
         upon at least one (1) Business Day's prior written notice to the
         Administrative Agent and the affected Lender, convert each such Loan
         into a Base Rate Loan.

                                      -37-
<PAGE>

                  (iii) If at any time after a Lender gives notice under Section
         5.2(e)(i) such Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurodollar
         Rate Loans, such Lender shall promptly give notice of that
         determination, in writing, to the Borrower and the Administrative
         Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice
         to each other Lender. The Borrower's right to request, and such
         Lender's obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans to the
         Borrower shall thereupon be restored.

         (f) Compensation. In addition to all amounts required to be paid by the
Borrower pursuant to Section 5.1 and Article XIII, the Borrower shall compensate
each Lender, upon demand, for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including,
without limitation, any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or
reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or
maintain such Lender's Eurodollar Rate Loans or to the Borrower, but excluding
any loss of Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans) which that Lender may
sustain (i) if for any reason a conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar
Rate Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation given by the Borrower or in a telephonic request by it
for conversion/continuation or a successive Eurodollar Interest Period does not
commence after notice therefor is given pursuant to Section 5.1(c), other than
pursuant to Sections 5.2(d) or (e), or (ii) if for any reason any Eurodollar
Rate Loan is prepaid (other than pursuant to Section 5.2(d) or (e)) or converted
on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Eurodollar Interest Period
or (iii) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to repay a Eurodollar
Rate Loan when required by the terms of this Agreement. The Lender making demand
for such compensation shall deliver to the Borrower concurrently with such
demand a written statement in reasonable detail as to such losses, expenses and
liabilities, and this statement shall be conclusive as to the amount of
compensation due to that Lender, absent manifest error.

         (g) Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or
transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of, its Eurodollar
Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate or its other offices or Affiliates. No
Lender shall be entitled, however, to receive any greater amount under Sections
4.2 or 5.2(f) or Article XIII as a result of the transfer of any such Eurodollar
Rate Loan to any office (other than such Eurodollar Lending Office) or any
Affiliate (other than such Eurodollar Affiliate) than such Lender would have
been entitled to receive immediately prior thereto, unless (i) the transfer
occurred at a time when circumstances giving rise to the claim for such greater
amount did not exist and (ii) such claim would have arisen even if such transfer
had not occurred.

         (h) Affiliates Not Obligated. No Eurodollar Affiliate or other
Affiliate of any Lender shall be deemed a party to this Agreement or shall have
any liability or obligation under this Agreement.

         (i) Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. Any failure by any Lender to take into
account the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage when calculating interest due on
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall not constitute, whether by course of dealing or
otherwise, a waiver by such Lender of its right to collect such amount for any
future period.

                                      -38-

         (j) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. The principal amount of any
mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 4.1(c) hereof, shall be applied, first,
to the outstanding Base Rate Loans and then, to the outstanding Eurodollar Rate
Loans. Unless the Borrower otherwise pays breakage costs in accordance with
Section 5.2(f), the Administrative Agent shall hold such principal amounts
allocated for prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans until the end of the
applicable Eurodollar Interest Periods) and, during the interim period, shall
invest said sums in Cash Equivalents. Interest earned thereon shall be forwarded
to the Borrower upon the payment of the Eurodollar Rate Loans at the end of said
Eurodollar Interest Period. Interest shall continue to accrue on the principal
amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loans until so paid.

                                  ARTICLE VI.

taxes, assessments, fees and other charges of Governmental Authorities thereupon
and upon or relating to their respective Properties, assets, receipts, sales,

such returns or reports to be due and payable have been paid, except to the
extent (i) such taxes, assessments, fees and other charges of Governmental
Authorities are being contested in good faith by an appropriate proceeding
diligently pursued as permitted by the terms of Section 9.4 and (ii) such taxes,
assessments, fees and other charges of Governmental Authorities pertain to
Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and the non-payment of the
amounts thereof would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a
Material Adverse Effect. All other material taxes (including, without

Subsidiaries which are due and payable have been paid, except for Customary

performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or
conditions contained in any Contractual Obligation applicable to it, or (ii) any
condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both,
would constitute a default with respect to any such Contractual Obligation; in
each case, except where such default or defaults, if any, will not have a
Material Adverse Effect.

              (n) Disclosure. The representations and warranties of the Borrower
and the Guarantors contained in the Loan Documents, and all certificates and
other documents delivered to the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to
the terms thereof, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
contained herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, taken as a whole, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Lenders acknowledge that the Borrower shall not have liability under this clause
(n) with respect to its projections of future events or for any financial
projections.

              (o) Requirements of Law. Each of the Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries is in compliance with all Requirements of Law applicable to it and
its respective businesses and Properties, in each case where the failure to so
comply individually or in the aggregate will have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  applicable Environmental, Health or Safety Requirements of

                           (B) the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have
                  obtained all material environmental, health and safety Permits
                  necessary for their respective operations, and all such
                  Permits are in good standing and the holder of each such
                  Permit is currently in compliance with all terms and
                  conditions of such Permits, except to the extent any failure
                  to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect;

                           (C) to the knowledge of the Borrower, none of the
                  Borrower, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective present
                  or past Properties or operations are subject to or are the
                  subject of any investigation of any Governmental Authority,
                  judicial or administrative proceeding, order, judgment or

                  any Remedial Action, (II) any Claims or Liabilities and Costs
                  arising from the Release or threatened Release of a
                  Contaminant into the environment, or (III) any violation of or
                  liability under any Environmental, Health or Safety
                  Requirement of Law, except to the extent none of the foregoing
                  would have a Material Adverse Effect;

                           (D) none of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has
                  filed any notice under any applicable Requirement of Law (I)
                  reporting a Release of a Contaminant; (II) indicating past or
                  present treatment, storage or disposal of a hazardous waste,
                  as that term is defined under 40 C.F.R. Part 261 or any state
                  equivalent; or (III) reporting a violation of any applicable
                  Environmental, Health or Safety Requirement of Law with
                  respect to any of the foregoing, the substance of which would
                  have a Material Adverse Effect;

                           (E) none of the Borrower's or any of its
                  Subsidiaries' present or past Property is listed or, to the
                  knowledge of the Borrower, proposed for listing on the
                  National Priorities List ("NPL") pursuant to CERCLA or on the
                  Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation Liability

                  of sites requiring Remedial Action;

                           (F) to the knowledge of the Borrower, none of the
                  Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has sent or directly
                  arranged for the transport of any waste to any site listed or
                  proposed for listing on the NPL, CERCLIS or any similar state

                           (G) to the best of the Borrower's knowledge, there is
                  not now, and to the Borrower's knowledge there has never been,
                  on or in any Project (I) any treatment, recycling, storage
                  away from the site of generation or disposal of any hazardous
                  waste, as that term is defined under 40 C.F.R. Part 261 or any
                  state equivalent, (II) any solid waste management facility,
                  (III) any underground storage tanks the presence or use of
                  which is in violation of applicable Environmental, Health or
                  Safety Requirements of Law, (IV) any asbestos-containing
                  material which, in its present state, such Person has any
                  reason to believe could subject such Person or its Property to
                  Liabilities and Costs arising out of or relating to
                  environmental, health or safety matters that would result in a
                  Material Adverse Effect; or (V) any polychlorinated biphenyls
                  (PCB) used in hydraulic oils, electrical transformers or other
                  Equipment, which, in any such case, would subject the Borrower
                  or its Subsidiaries or their respective Properties to
                  Liabilities and Costs arising out of or relating to
                  environmental, health or safety matters that would result in a
                  Material Adverse Effect;

                           (H) to the knowledge of the Borrower, none of the
                  Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice or
                  Claim to the effect that any of such Persons is or may be
                  liable to any Person as a result of the Release or threatened
                  Release of a Contaminant into the environment which would
                  result in a Material Adverse Effect;

                           (I) none of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
                  has any contingent liability in connection with any Release or
                  threatened Release of any Contaminants into the environment
                  which will result in a Material Adverse Effect;

                           (J) no Environmental Lien has attached to any
                  Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other
                  than those otherwise permitted hereunder) or which do not
                  constitute an Event of Default; and

                           (K) no Property of the Borrower or any of its
                  Subsidiaries is subject to any Environmental Property Transfer
                  Act, or to the extent such acts are applicable to any such
                  Property, the Borrower and/or such Subsidiary whose Property
                  is subject thereto has complied in all material respects with
                  the requirements of such acts.

              (q) ERISA. As of the date hereof, neither the Borrower nor any
ERISA Affiliate maintains or contributes to any Benefit Plan or Multiemployer
Plan other than those listed on SCHEDULE 7.1-Q hereto. Each Plan which is
intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as
currently in effect has been determined by the IRS to be so qualified, and each
trust related to any such Plan has been determined to be exempt from federal
income tax under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as currently in
effect. Except as disclosed in SCHEDULE 7.1-Q, neither the Borrower nor any of
its Subsidiaries maintains or contributes to any employee welfare benefit plan
within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA that provides benefits to employees
after termination of employment other than as required by Section 601 of ERISA.
The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material
respects with the responsibilities, obligations and duties imposed on it by
ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code and regulations promulgated thereunder with
respect to all Plans. No Benefit Plan has incurred any accumulated funding
deficiency (as defined in Sections 302(a)(2) of ERISA and 412 (a) of the
Internal Revenue Code) whether or not waived. Neither the Borrower nor any ERISA
Affiliate nor any fiduciary of any Plan which is not a Multiemployer Plan (i)
has engaged in a nonexempt prohibited transaction described in Sections 406 of
ERISA or 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code or (ii) has taken or failed to take
any action which would constitute or result in an ERISA Termination Event.
Neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is subject to any liability under
Sections 4063, 4064, or 4204 of ERISA which would have a Material Adverse
Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is subject to any liability
under Sections 4069 or 4212 (c) of ERISA or has incurred any liability to the
PBGC which remains outstanding other than the payment of premiums, and there are
no premium payments which have become due which are unpaid. Schedule B to the
most recent annual report filed with the IRS with respect to each Benefit Plan
has been furnished to the Administrative Agent and is complete and accurate in
all material respects. Since the date of each such Schedule B, there has been no
material adverse change in the funding status or financial condition of the
Benefit Plan relating to such Schedule B. Neither the Borrower nor any ERISA
Affiliate has (i) failed to make a required contribution or payment to a
Multiemployer Plan or (ii) made a complete or partial withdrawal under Sections
4203 or 4205 of ERISA from a Multiemployer Plan which would have a Material
Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower, nor any ERISA Affiliate has failed to make
a required installment or any other required payment under Section 412 of the
Internal Revenue Code on or before the due date for such installment or other
payment. Neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is required to provide
security to a Benefit Plan under Section 401(a)(29) of the Internal Revenue Code
due to a Benefit Plan amendment that results in an increase in current liability
for the plan year. Except as disclosed on SCHEDULE 7.1-Q, which shall be updated
by Borrower as of the first day of each fiscal quarter, to the extent required,
neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has, by reason of the
transactions contemplated hereby, any obligation to make any payment to any
employee pursuant to any Plan or existing contract or arrangement.

              (r) Securities Activities. The Borrower is not engaged in the
business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin
Stock except as described on SCHEDULE 7.L-R.

              (s) Solvency. After giving effect to the Term Loans to be made on
the Funding Date, the Acquisition, and the disbursement of the proceeds of such
Term Loan pursuant to the Borrower's instructions, each of the Borrower and each
Guarantor is Solvent.

              (t) Insurance. SCHEDULE 7.1-T accurately sets forth as of the
Closing Date all insurance policies and programs currently in effect with
respect to the respective Property and assets and business of the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries, specifying for each such policy and program, (i) the amount
thereof, (ii) the risks insured against thereby, (iii) the name of the insurer
and each insured party thereunder, (iv) the policy or other identification
number thereof, and (v) the expiration date thereof. The Borrower has delivered
to the Administrative Agent certificates of insurance or other satisfactory
evidence of all insurance policies set forth on SCHEDULE 7.1-T. Such insurance
policies and programs or their replacements obtained in compliance with Section
9.5 are currently in full force and effect, in compliance with the requirements
of Section 9.5 hereof and provide coverage against such casualties and
contingencies as are commercially reasonable and in accordance with the
customary and general practices of businesses having similar operations and real
estate portfolios in similar geographic areas and are in amounts, containing
such terms, in such forms and for such periods as are reasonable and prudent for
such businesses. Borrower shall update SCHEDULE 7.1-T, to the extent required,
in order to keep said Schedule true and correct.

              (u) REIT Status. The Company qualifies as a REIT under the
Internal Revenue Code.

              (v) Ownership of Projects, Joint Ventures and Property. Ownership
of all wholly owned Projects, Joint Ventures and other Property of the
Consolidated Businesses is held by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and is not
held directly by the Company.

              (w) Title to Properties. The Borrower, the Guarantors and their
respective Subsidiaries that own Real Property each has good title to all of its
respective Real Property purported to be owned by it, including, without
limitation, that:

                  (a) Either (i) the Borrower or (ii) a Guarantor is the owner
of or the holder of a fee or ground leasehold interest (under an Eligible Ground
Lease) in the Unencumbered Projects and Unencumbered New York City Assets which
are wholly-owned or ground-leased by the Borrower and the Consolidated
Businesses, free from any Lien, except for Customary Permitted Liens, or
preferred equity interest.

                  (b) The Company, the Borrower and their Consolidated
Subsidiaries will, as of the Closing Date, own all of the assets as reflected in
the financial statements of the Borrower and the Company described in Section
7.1(g) or acquired since the date of such financial statements (except property
and assets sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business
since that date).

                                 ARTICLE VIII.
                               REPORTING COVENANTS

         The Borrower covenants and agrees that so long as any Term Loan
Commitments are outstanding and thereafter until payment in full of all of the
Obligations (other than indemnities pursuant to Section 14.3 not yet due),
unless the Requisite Lenders shall otherwise give prior written consent thereto:

         8.1. BORROWER ACCOUNTING PRACTICES. The Borrower shall maintain, and
cause each of its consolidated Subsidiaries to maintain, a system of accounting
established and administered in accordance with sound business practices to

         the related consolidated statements of income and cash flow of the
         Borrower (to be prepared and delivered quarterly in conjunction with
         the other reports delivered hereunder at the end of each fiscal
         quarter) for each such fiscal quarter, and, in comparative form, the
         corresponding figures for the corresponding dates and periods of the
         previous Fiscal Year, certified by an Authorized Financial Officer of

Borrower, or with any Affiliate of the Borrower which is not its Subsidiary or
the Company, unless such transaction is determined by the Board of Directors of
the Company to be no less favorable to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
as applicable, than those that might be obtained in an arm's length transaction
at the time from Persons who are not such a holder or Affiliate (other than
transactions referred to in Section 2.2). Nothing contained in this Section 10.5

transaction or series of transactions, all or substantially all of the
Borrower's or such Guarantor's business or Property, whether now or hereafter
acquired, except in connection with issuance, transfer, conversion or repurchase
of limited partnership interests in the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(a) the Borrower or a Guarantor shall be permitted to merge, consolidate or
amalgamate with another Person so long as the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the
case may be, is the surviving Person following such merger, consolidation or
amalgamation, (b) a Guarantor (other than the Company) shall be permitted to
merge, consolidate or amalgamate with or into the Borrower or another Guarantor,
and (c) so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and following the delivery by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent of a certificate of an Authorized Officer certifying that
Borrower is in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on a
pro forma basis, exclusive of the properties owned by a Guarantor, such
Guarantor (other than the Company) shall be permitted to merge, consolidate or
amalgamate with or into another Person.

              (h) Judgments and Unpermitted Liens.

                  (i) Any money judgment (other than a money judgment covered by
         insurance as to which the insurance company has acknowledged coverage),
         writ or warrant of attachment, or similar process against the Borrower

         to Claims arising out of non-recourse Indebtedness) is entered and

Company shall merge or liquidate with or into any other Person and, as a result
thereof and after giving effect thereto, (i) the Company is not the surviving
Person or (ii) such merger or liquidation would effect an acquisition of or
Investment in any Person which is prohibited or results in a Potential Event of
Default or an Event of Default under the terms of this Agreement. The Borrower
shall merge or liquidate with or into any other Person and, as a result thereof
and after giving effect thereto, (i) the Borrower is not the surviving Person or
(ii) such merger or liquidation would effect an acquisition of or Investment in
any Person which is prohibited or results in a Potential Event of Default or an
Event of Default under the terms of this Agreement.

              (p) Existing Revolving Credit Agreement. An "Event of Default"
shall occur under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement.

         11.2. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

              (a) Acceleration and Termination. Upon the occurrence of any Event
of Default described in Sections 11.1(f) or 11.1(g), the Term Loan Commitments
shall automatically and immediately terminate and the unpaid principal amount
of, and any and all accrued interest on, the Obligations and all accrued fees
and other Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable,
without presentment, demand, or protest or other requirements of any kind
(including, without limitation, valuation and appraisement, diligence,
presentment, notice of intent to demand or accelerate and of acceleration), all
of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, the Administrative
Agent shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Lenders whose Pro
Rata Shares, in the aggregate, are greater than fifty-one percent (51%), by
written notice to the Borrower, (i) declare that the Term Loan Commitments are
terminated, whereupon the Term Loan Commitments and the obligation of each
Lender to convert or continue any Loan hereunder shall immediately terminate,
and/or (ii) declare the unpaid principal amount of and any and all accrued and
unpaid interest on the Obligations and all other Obligations to be, and the same
shall thereupon be, immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, or
protest or other requirements of any kind (including, without limitation,
valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, notice of intent to demand
or accelerate and of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived by
the Borrower.

              (b) Rescission. If within ninety (90) days after termination of
the Term Loan Commitments and/or acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, the
Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of
principal of the Loans which shall have become due otherwise than by
acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent permitted by law, on
overdue interest, at the rates specified in this Agreement) and all Events of
Default and Potential Events of Default (other than nonpayment of principal of
and accrued interest on the Loans due and payable solely by virtue of
acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant to Section 14.7, then upon
the written consent of the Requisite Lenders and written notice to the Borrower,
the termination of the Term Loan Commitments and/or the acceleration and their
consequences may be rescinded and annulled; but such action shall not affect any
subsequent Event of Default or Potential Event of Default or impair any right or
remedy consequent thereon. The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended
merely to bind the Lenders to a decision which may be made at the election of
the Requisite Lenders; they are not intended to benefit the Borrower and do not
give the Borrower the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any
acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

              (c) Enforcement. The Borrower acknowledges that in the event the
Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries fails to perform, observe
or discharge any of their respective obligations or liabilities under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, any remedy of law may prove to be
inadequate relief to the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the Lenders;
therefore, the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and
the Lenders shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in
any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

                                  ARTICLE XII.
                                   THE AGENTS

         12.1. APPOINTMENT. (a) Each Lender hereby designates and appoints GSMC
as the Administrative Agent, and the Arranger as the arrangers of such Lender
under this Agreement, and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the
Administrative Agent, and the Arranger to take such actions on its behalf under
the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise
such powers in each case only as are set forth herein or therein together with
such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent
and the Arranger each agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained
in this Article XII.

              (b) The provisions of this Article XII are solely for the benefit
of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the Lenders, and neither the
Borrower, the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Borrower shall have any rights
to rely on or enforce any of the provisions hereof (other than as expressly set
forth in Section 12.7). In performing its respective functions and duties under
this Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Arranger shall act solely as
agents of the Lenders and do not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed
any obligation or relationship of agency, trustee or fiduciary with or for the
Company, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. The Administrative
Agent and the Arranger may perform any of their respective duties hereunder, or
under the other Loan Documents, by or through their respective agents or
employees.

         12.2. NATURE OF DUTIES. The Administrative Agent and the Arranger shall
not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this
Agreement or in the other Loan Documents. The duties of the Administrative Agent
and the Arranger shall be mechanical and administrative in nature. Neither the
Administrative Agent nor the Arranger shall have by reason of this Agreement a
fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Nothing in this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall
be construed to impose upon the Administrative Agent or the Arranger any
obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
except as expressly set forth herein or therein. The Administrative Agent and
the Arranger each hereby agrees that its duties shall include providing copies
of documents received by such Agent from the Borrower which are reasonably
requested by any Lender, furnishing copies of documents to each Lender, upon
request, of documents sent by such Agent to the Borrower and promptly notifying
each Lender upon its obtaining actual knowledge of the occurrence of any Event
of Default hereunder. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to
each Lender, promptly after receipt thereof, copies of those documents and
reports received by it pursuant to Sections 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.7 and 8.12.

         12.3. RIGHT TO REQUEST INSTRUCTIONS. The Administrative Agent and the
Arranger may at any time request instructions from the Lenders with respect to
any actions or approvals which by the terms of any of the Loan Documents such
Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and such Agent shall be
absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any
approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for
refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan
Documents until it shall have received such instructions from those Lenders from
whom such Agent is required to obtain such instructions for the pertinent matter
in accordance with the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, such Agent shall take any action, or refrain from taking any action,
which is permitted by the terms of the Loan Documents upon receipt of
instructions from those Lenders from whom such Agent is required to obtain such
instructions for the pertinent matter in accordance with the Loan Documents,
provided, that no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the
Administrative Agent or the Arranger as a result of such Agent acting or
refraining from acting under the Loan Documents in accordance with the
instructions of the Requisite Lenders or, where required by the express terms of
this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders.

         12.4. RELIANCE. The Administrative Agent and the Arranger shall each be
entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or
other documents believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to
have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all
matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and its
duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of legal counsel (including counsel
for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by
it.

         12.5. INDEMNIFICATION. To the extent that the Administrative Agent or
the Arranger is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrower, the Lenders will
reimburse and indemnify such Agent for and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, and
reasonable costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever
which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it in any way relating
to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such
Agent under the Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender's Pro Rata Share.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the
Administrative Agent nor the Arranger shall be indemnified to the extent such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs and expenses result from such Person's gross negligence, willful
misconduct or breach of this Article XII. Such Agent agrees to refund to the
Lenders any of the foregoing amounts paid to it by the Lenders which amounts are
subsequently recovered by such Agent from the Borrower or any other Person on
behalf of the Borrower. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 12.5
shall survive the payment in full of the Loans and all other Obligations and the
termination of this Agreement.

         12.6. AGENTS INDIVIDUALLY. With respect to their respective Pro Rata
Share of the Term Loan Commitments hereunder, if any, and the Loans made by
them, if any, the Persons serving as the Administrative Agent and the Arranger
shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and are subject
to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein
for any Lender. The terms "LENDERS" or "REQUISITE LENDERS" or any similar terms
shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates or such Lender has
assigned its interest hereunder, include GSMC in its individual capacity as a
Lender or as one of the Requisite Lenders. GSMC and each of its Affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of
banking, trust or other business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as
if GSMC were not acting as an Agent or Arranger pursuant hereto.

         12.7. SUCCESSOR AGENTS.

              (a) Resignation. Any Agent may resign from the performance of all
its functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty (30)
Business Days' prior written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, unless
applicable law requires a shorter notice period or that there be no notice
period, in which instance such applicable law shall control. Such resignation
shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Agent of appointment
pursuant to this Section 12.7.

              (b) Appointment by Requisite Lenders. Upon any such resignation
becoming effective, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a
successor Administrative Agent selected from among the Lenders with the prior
written consent of the Borrower (so long as no Event of Default then exists),
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

              (c) Appointment by Retiring Agent. If a successor Administrative
Agent shall not have been appointed within the thirty (30) Business Day or
shorter period provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 12.7, the retiring
Agent shall then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Administrative
Agent until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor
Agent as provided above with the prior written consent of the Borrower (so long
as no Event of Default then exists) which shall not be unreasonably withheld,
provided, however, that such successor Administrative Agent shall have total
assets of not less than $10,000,000,000.

              (d) Rights of the Successor and Retiring Agents. Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor
Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with
all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the
retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this
Agreement. After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the
provisions of this Article XII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Agent under this Agreement.

         12.8. RELATIONS AMONG THE LENDERS. Each Lender agrees that it will not
take any legal action, or institute any actions or proceedings, against the
Borrower or any other obligor hereunder with respect to any of the Obligations,
without the prior written consent of the Lenders. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, no Lender may accelerate or otherwise enforce its
portion of the obligations, or unilaterally terminate its Term Loan Commitment
except in accordance with Section 11.2(a).

         12.9. STANDARD OF CARE. The Administrative Agent and the Arranger shall
administer the Loans in the same manner that such Agent administers loans made
for its own account.

                                 ARTICLE XIII.
                                YIELD PROTECTION

         13.1. TAXES.

              (a) Payment of Taxes. Any and all payments by the Borrower
hereunder or under the Notes or other documents evidencing any Obligations of
such Person shall be made, in accordance with Section 4.2, free and clear of and
without reduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges, withholdings, and all stamp or documentary taxes, excise
taxes, ad valorem taxes and other taxes which arise from the execution, delivery
or registration, or from payment or performance under, or otherwise with respect
to, any of the Loan Documents or the Term Loan Obligations and all other
liabilities with respect thereto excluding, in the case of each Lender, taxes
imposed on or measured by net income or overall gross receipts and capital and
franchise taxes imposed on it by (i) the United States, (ii) the Governmental
Authority of the jurisdiction in which such Lender's Applicable Lending Office
is located or any political subdivision thereof or (iii) the Governmental
Authority in which such Person is organized, managed and controlled or any
political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges and withholdings being hereinafter referred to as "TAXES").
Except as otherwise provided herein, if the Borrower shall be required by law to
withhold or deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or
under any such Note or document to any Lender, (x) the sum payable to such
Lender shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required
withholding or deductions (including withholding or deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 13.1) such Lender receives an amount
equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deductions
been made, (y) the Borrower shall make such withholding or deductions, and (z)
the Borrower shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant
taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

                                      -69-
<PAGE>

              (b) Indemnification. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Borrower will indemnify each Lender against, and reimburse each Lender within
ten (10) Business Days after written demand for, the full amount of all Taxes
(including, without limitation, any Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority
on amounts payable under this Section 13.1 and any additional income or
franchise taxes resulting therefrom) incurred or paid by such Lender and any
liability (including penalties, interest, and out-of-pocket expenses paid to
third parties) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Taxes were lawfully payable, to the extent not paid by the Borrower pursuant to
this Section 13.1. A certificate as to any additional amount payable to any
Person under this Section 13.1 submitted by it to the Borrower shall, absent
manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto. Each
Lender agrees, within a reasonable time after receiving a written request from
the Borrower, to provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with such
certificates and other documents as are reasonably required, and take such other
actions as are reasonably necessary to claim such exemptions as such Lender may
be entitled to claim in respect of all or a portion of any Taxes which are
otherwise required to be paid or deducted or withheld pursuant to this Section
13.1 in respect of any payments under this Agreement or under the other Loan
Documents. If any Lender receives any refund with respect to any Taxes, such
Lender shall promptly remit such refund to the Borrower.

              (c) Receipts. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any
payment of Taxes by the Borrower, the Borrower will furnish to the
Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 14.8, the original
or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

              (d) Foreign Bank Certifications. (i) Each Lender that is not
created or organized under the laws of the United States or a political
subdivision thereof shall deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent on the Closing Date or the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender
pursuant to Section 14.1 hereof a true and accurate certificate executed in
duplicate by a duly authorized officer of such Lender to the effect that such
Lender is eligible to receive payments hereunder and under the Notes without
deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax (I) under the
provisions of an applicable tax treaty concluded by the United States (in which
case the certificate shall be accompanied by two duly completed copies of IRS
Form W-8BEN (or any successor or substitute form or forms)) or (II) under
Sections 1441(c)(1) and 1442(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (in which case the
certificate shall be accompanied by two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI
(or any successor or substitute form or forms)).

<PAGE>

                  (ii) Each Lender referred to in Section 13.1(d)(i) further
agrees to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time
to time, a true and accurate certificate executed in duplicate by a duly
authorized officer of such Lender before or promptly upon the occurrence of any
event requiring a change in the most recent certificate previously delivered by
it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section
13.1(d). Each certificate required to be delivered pursuant to this Section
13.1(d)(ii) shall certify as to one of the following:

                           (A) that such Lender can continue to receive payments
                  hereunder and under the Notes without deduction or withholding
                  of United States federal income tax;

                           (B) that such Lender cannot continue to receive
                  payments hereunder and under the Notes without deduction or
                  withholding of United States federal income tax as specified
                  therein but does not require additional payments pursuant to
                  Section 13.1(a) because it is entitled to recover the full
                  amount of any such deduction or withholding from a source
                  other than the Borrower; or

                           (C) that such Lender is no longer capable of
                  receiving payments hereunder and under the Notes without
                  deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax
                  as specified therein and that it is not capable of recovering
                  the full amount of the same from a source other than the
                  Borrower.

Each such Lender agrees to deliver to each of the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent further duly completed copies of the above-mentioned IRS
forms on or before the earlier of (x) the date that any such form expires or
becomes obsolete or otherwise is required to be resubmitted as a condition to
obtaining an exemption from withholding from United States federal income tax
and (y) fifteen (15) days after the occurrence of any event requiring a change
in the most recent form previously delivered by such Lender to the Borrower and
Administrative Agent, unless any change in treaty, law, regulation, or official
interpretation thereof which would render such form inapplicable or which would
prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering such form has occurred
prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required and
such Lender promptly advises the Borrower that it is not capable of receiving
payments hereunder and under the Notes without any deduction or withholding of
United States federal income tax.

                  (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Section 13.1, the Borrower will not be required to make any additional
payment to or for the account of any Lender under Section 13.1(a) or (b) by
reason of (x) a breach by such Lender of any certification or representation set
forth in any form furnished to the Borrower under this Section 13.1(d), or (y)
such Lender's failure or inability to furnish, if required to do so, under this
Section 13.1(d) an original or renewal of a Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN (or
successor form), as applicable, unless such failure or inability results from a
change (after the date such Lender became a Lender party hereto) in any
applicable law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any regulatory
authority (including without limitation any change in any applicable tax
treaty).

         13.2. INCREASED CAPITAL. If after the date hereof any Lender determines
that (i) the adoption or implementation of or any change in or in the
interpretation or administration of any law or regulation or any guideline or
request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or
quasi-governmental authority exercising jurisdiction, power or control over any
Lender or banks or financial institutions generally (whether or not having the
force of law), compliance with which affects the amount of capital required or
expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such
Lender and (ii) the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the
making or maintenance by any Lender of its Loans, any Lender's participation in
or obligation to participate in the Loans or other advances made hereunder or
the existence of any Lender's obligation to make Loans then, in any such case,
within ten (10) Business Days after written demand by such Lender (with a copy
of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall immediately pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as
specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such
Lender or such corporation therefor. Such demand shall be accompanied by a
statement as to the amount of such compensation and include a brief summary of
the basis for such demand. Such statement shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error.

         13.3. CHANGES; LEGAL RESTRICTIONS. If after the date hereof any Lender
determines that the adoption or implementation of or any change in or in the
interpretation or administration of any law or regulation or any guideline or
request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or
quasi-governmental authority exercising jurisdiction, power or control over any
Lender, or over banks or financial institutions generally (whether or not having
the force of law), compliance with which:

              (a) subjects a Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office or
Eurodollar Affiliate) to charges (other than taxes) of any kind which such
Lender reasonably determines to be applicable to the Term Loan Commitments of
the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or change the basis of taxation of
payments to that Lender of principal, fees, interest, or any other amount
payable hereunder with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans (other than taxes
covered by Section 13.1(a) hereof and taxes excluded in Section 13.1(a) hereof);
or

              (b) imposes, modifies, or holds applicable, in the determination
of a Lender, any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or
similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in
or for the account of, advances or loans by, commitments made, or other credit
extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, a Lender or any Applicable
Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate of that Lender in respect of Eurodollar
Loans;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to that Lender of
making, renewing or maintaining the Loans or its Term Loan Commitment; then, in
any such case, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand by such Lender
(with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall
immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from
time to time as specified by such Lender, such amount or amounts as may be
necessary to compensate such Lender or its Eurodollar Affiliate for any such
additional cost incurred or reduced amount received. Such demand shall be
accompanied by a statement as to the amount of such compensation and include a
brief summary of the basis for such demand. Such statement shall be conclusive
and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

         13.4. REPLACEMENT OF CERTAIN LENDERS. In the event a Lender (a
"DESIGNATED LENDER") shall have (i) requested additional compensation from the
Borrower under Section 13.1 or under Section 13.2 or under Section 13.3, (ii)
failed to make its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan or (iii) failed to make any
Loan at the Eurodollar Rate, the Borrower may, at its sole election, make
written demand on such Designated Lender (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) for the Designated Lender to assign, and such Designated Lender shall
assign pursuant to one or more duly executed Assignment and Acceptances to one
or more Eligible Assignees which the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall
have identified for such purpose, all of such Designated Lender's right and
obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents
(including, without limitation, its Term Loan Commitment, all Loans owing to it
and all other Obligations owing to it) in accordance with Section 14.1. All
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with
the foregoing shall be for the sole account of the Borrower and shall constitute
Obligations hereunder. In no event shall Borrower's election under the
provisions of this Section 13.4 affect its obligation to pay the additional
compensation required under either Section 13.1, Section 13.2 or Section 13.3.

         13.5. MITIGATION. Each Lender shall notify the Borrower of any event
occurring after the date of this Agreement entitling such Lender to compensation
under Sections 13.1, 13.2 or 13.3 as promptly as practicable, but in any event,
within 45 days, after such Lender obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided
that (i) if any Lender fails to give such notice within 45 days after it obtains
actual knowledge of such an event, such Lender shall, with respect to
compensation payable pursuant to Sections 13.1, 13.2 or 13.3 in respect of any
costs resulting from such event, only be entitled to payment under Sections
13.1, 13.2 or 13.3 for costs incurred from and after the date 45 days prior to
the date that such Lender does give such notice and (ii) each Lender will
designate a different Applicable Lending Office for the Loans of such Lender
affected by such event if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce
the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the reasonable judgment of
such Lender, be disadvantageous to such Lender.

                                  ARTICLE XIV.
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         14.1. ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS.

              (a) Assignments. No assignments or participations of any Lender's
rights or obligations under this Agreement shall be made except in accordance
with this Section 14.1. Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees
all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including
all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Loans) in accordance with
the provisions of this Section 14.1.

              (b) Limitations on Assignments. Each assignment shall be subject
to the following conditions: (i) each assignment shall be of a constant, and not
a varying, ratable percentage of all of the assigning Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement and, in the case of a partial assignment to an
assignee which is not a Lender or a Lender Affiliate, shall be in a minimum
principal amount of $5,000,000 (and the assignor shall maintain a minimum amount
of $5,000,000 for its own account unless the assignor shall assign or
participate its entire interest), (ii) each such assignment shall be to an
Eligible Assignee, (iii) (A) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, each assignment shall be subject to the approval of the
Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld);
provided that, no such consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for
an assignment by any Lender to any of its Lender Affiliates, so long as such
Lender Affiliate is an Eligible Assignee, and (B) so long as no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, each assignment to an assignee which is not a
Lender, a Lender Affiliate or a Pre-Approved Lender shall be subject to the
approval of the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and
shall be deemed to have been given if the Borrower fails to object to such
proposed assignment within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of a request
for approval), and (iv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the
Register, an Assignment and Acceptance. Upon such execution, delivery,
acceptance and recording in the Register, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Acceptance and agreed to by the Administrative
Agent, (A) the assignee thereunder shall, in addition to any rights and
obligations hereunder held by it immediately prior to such effective date, if
any, have the rights and obligations hereunder that have been assigned to it
pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, have the same rights and benefits hereunder as if it were an
original Lender hereunder, (B) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that
rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such
Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (except as otherwise provided
in Section 14.9) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and,
in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining
portion of such assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement,
the assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto, except as otherwise
provided in Section 14.9) and (C) the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the
assignee thereunder a Note evidencing its obligations to such assignee with
respect to the Loans.

              (c) The Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its
address referred to in Section 14.8 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to and accepted by it and a register (the "REGISTER") for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, the Term Loan Commitment
of, and the principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to
time and whether such Lender is an original Lender or the assignee of another
Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance. The entries in the Register
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders and each other party to
a Loan Document may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as
a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time
and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

              (d) Fee. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed
by the assigning Lender and an Assignee and a processing and recordation fee of
$3,500 (payable by the assignee to the Administrative Agent), the Administrative
Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in
compliance with this Agreement and in substantially the form of EXHIBIT A
hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information
contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the
Borrower.

              (e) Participations. Each Lender may sell participations to one or
more other financial institutions or other Persons in or to all or a portion of
its rights and obligations under and in respect of any and all facilities under
this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Term Loan
Commitment hereunder and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i)
such Lender's obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation,
its Term Loan Commitment hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender
shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance
of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other
Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iv)
each participation (other than a participation to an Affiliate) shall be in a
minimum amount of $5,000,000, and (v) such participant's rights to agree or to
restrict such Lender's ability to agree to the modification, waiver or release
of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, to consent to any action or failure
to act by any party to any of the Loan Documents or any of their respective
Affiliates, or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which
any Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents, shall be limited
to the right to consent to any (A) increase in the Term Loan Commitment of the
Lender from whom such participant purchased a participation, (B) reduction of

              (f) Information Regarding the Borrower. Any Lender may, subject to
the provisions of Section 14.22, in connection with any assignment or
participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section
14.1, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or
participant, any information relating to the Borrower or its Subsidiaries
furnished to such Lender by the Administrative Agent or by or on behalf of the
Borrower.

              (g) Payment to Participants. Anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, in the case of any participation, all amounts payable
by the Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be calculated and made in the
manner and to the parties required hereby as if no such participation had been
sold.

              (h) Lenders' Creation of Security Interests. Notwithstanding any
other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a
security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, Obligations owing to it and any Note held by it)
in favor of any Person.

         14.2. EXPENSES.

              (a) Generally. The Borrower agrees promptly upon demand to pay, or
reimburse the Administrative Agent for the reasonable fees, expenses and
disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent (but not of other legal
counsel) and for all other reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred
by the Administrative Agent or the Arranger in connection with (i) the
preparation, negotiation, and execution of the Loan Documents; (ii) the
preparation, negotiation, execution, syndication and interpretation of this
Agreement (including, without limitation, the satisfaction or attempted
satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Article VI), the Loan
Documents, and the making of the Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder;
(iii) any amendments, consents, waivers, assignments, restatements, or
supplements to any of the Loan Documents and the preparation, negotiation, and
execution of the same; and (iv) any other amendments, modifications, agreements,
assignments, restatements or supplements to any of the Loan Documents requested
by Borrower and the preparation, negotiation, and execution of the same.

              (b) After Default. The Borrower further agrees to pay or reimburse
the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and each of the Lenders upon demand for
all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees (including allocated costs of internal counsel and
costs of settlement) incurred by the such entity after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default (i) in enforcing any Loan Document or
Obligation, the collection of any Obligation or exercising or enforcing any
other right or remedy available by reason of such Event of Default; or (ii) in
connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements
provided under this Agreement in the nature of a "work-out" or in any insolvency
or bankruptcy proceeding; (iii) in commencing, defending or intervening in any
litigation or in filing a petition, complaint, answer, motion or other pleadings
in any legal proceeding relating to the Obligations, a Project, or any of the
Consolidated Businesses and related to or arising out of the transactions
contemplated hereby or by any of the other Loan Documents; and (iv) in taking
any other action in or with respect to any suit or proceeding (bankruptcy or

                                      -75-
<PAGE>

         14.3. INDEMNITY. The Borrower further agrees (a) to defend, protect,
indemnify, and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and each and
all of the Lenders and each of their respective officers, directors, employees,
attorneys and agents (collectively, the "INDEMNITEES") from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses (other than loss of profits), damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, reasonable costs, reasonable
expenses and reasonable disbursements (excluding any taxes and including,
without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such
Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial
proceeding, whether or not such Indemnitees shall be designated a party
thereto), imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Indemnitees in any
manner relating to or arising out of (i) this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, the making of the Loans, the use or intended use of the proceeds of
the Loans hereunder, or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents, or (ii) any Liabilities and Costs relating to violation of any
Environmental, Health or Safety Requirements of Law, the past, present or future
operations of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective
predecessors in interest, or, the past, present or future environmental, health
or safety condition of any respective Property of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, the presence of asbestos-containing materials at any respective
Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or the Release or
threatened Release of any Contaminant into the environment (collectively, the
"INDEMNIFIED MATTERS"); provided, however, the Borrower shall have no obligation
to an Indemnitee hereunder with respect to Indemnified Matters caused by or
resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable final
judgment; and provided further that payment of the costs of preparation of the
Loan Documents shall be governed by Section 14.2(a) hereof; and (b) not to
assert any claim against any of the Indemnitees, on any theory of liability, for
consequential or punitive damages arising out of, or in any way in connection
with, the Term Loan Commitments, the Obligations, or the other matters governed
by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. To the extent that the
undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding
sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public
policy, the Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted
to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all
Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees.

         14.4. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES. If any change in the accounting
principles used in the preparation of the most recent financial statements
referred to in Sections 8.1 or 8.2 are hereafter required or permitted by the
rules, regulations, pronouncements and opinions of the Financial Accounting
Standards Board or the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (or
successors thereto or agencies with similar functions) and are adopted by the
Company or the Borrower as applicable, with the agreement of its independent
certified public accountants and such changes result in a change in the method
of calculation of any of the covenants, standards or terms found in Article X,
the parties hereto agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such
provisions so as to equitably reflect such changes with the desired result that
the criteria for evaluating compliance with such covenants, standards and terms
by the Borrower shall be the same after such changes as if such changes had not
been made; provided, however, no change in GAAP that would affect the method of
calculation of any of the covenants, standards or terms shall be given effect in
such calculations until such provisions are amended, in a manner satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to so reflect such change in
accounting principles.

         14.5. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

         14.6. RATABLE SHARING. The Lenders agree among themselves that (i) with
respect to all amounts received by them which are applicable to the payment of
the Obligations (excluding the costs, fees and other payments described in
Sections 5.2(f), and 5.3, Article XIII and Section 14.1) equitable adjustment
will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them
ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, whether received by voluntary
payment, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker's lien, by
counterclaim or cross-action or by the enforcement of any or all of the
Obligations (excluding the costs, fees and other payments described in Sections
5.2(f), and 5.3, Article XIII and Section 14.1), (ii) if any of them shall by
voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim, setoff,
banker's lien or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate
amount of the Obligations held by it, which is greater than the amount which
such Lender is entitled to receive hereunder, the Lender receiving such excess
payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and
participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the
receipt of such payment) in such Obligations owed to the others so that all such
recoveries with respect to such obligations shall be applied ratably in
accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that if all or part of
such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered
from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for
such participations shall be returned to such party to the extent necessary to
adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the
purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery.
The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another
Lender pursuant to this Section 14.6 may, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such participation as
fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount
of such participation.

         14.7. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.

              (a) General Provisions. Unless otherwise provided for or required
in this Agreement, no amendment or modification of any provision of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be effective without the
written agreement of the Requisite Lenders (which the Requisite Lenders shall
have the right to grant or withhold in their sole discretion) and the Borrower;
provided, however, that the Borrower's agreement shall not be required for any
amendment or modification of Sections 12.1 through 12.8 (other than Section
12.7). In the event that the Administrative Agent shall request the agreement of
the Lenders to any amendment, modification or waiver, if any Lender shall fail
to respond to any such request within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such
request, such Lender's approval thereto shall be deemed to have been given;
provided, however, that such request shall state, in capital letters that
"FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST WITHIN FIFTEEN (15) DAYS AFTER RECEIPT,
SHALL BE DEEMED CONSENT TO THE ENCLOSED REQUEST". No termination or waiver of
any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or consent
to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall be effective without the
written or deemed concurrence of the Requisite Lenders, which the Requisite
Lenders shall have the right to grant or withhold in their sole discretion. All
amendments, waivers and consents not specifically reserved to the Administrative
Agent, the Arranger or the Lenders in Section 14.7(b), 14.7(c), and in other
provisions of this Agreement shall require only the approval of the Requisite
Lenders. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance
and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on
the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further
notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

              (b) Amendments, Consents and Waivers by Affected Lenders. Any
amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of
the following provisions of this Agreement shall be effective only by a written
agreement, signed by each Lender affected thereby as described below:

                  (i) waiver of any of the conditions specified in Sections 6.1
         (except with respect to a condition based upon another provision of
         this Agreement, the waiver of which requires only the concurrence of
         the Requisite Lenders),

                  (ii) change the amount of such Lender's Term Loan Commitment
         (other than pursuant to an assignment permitted under Section 14.1),

                  (iii) reduction of the principal of, or the rate or amount of
         interest on, the Loans, or any fees or other amounts payable to such
         Lender (other than by the payment or prepayment thereof), and

                  (iv) postponement or extension of any date (other than the
         Term Loan Maturity Date postponement or extension of which is governed
         by Section 14.7(c)(i)) fixed for any payment of principal of, or
         interest on, the Loans or any fees or other amounts payable to such
         Lender (except with respect to any modifications of the application
         provisions relating to prepayments of Loans and other Obligations which
         are governed by Section 4.2(b)).

              (c) Amendments, Consents and Waivers by All Lenders. Any
amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of
the following provisions of this Agreement shall be effective only by a written
agreement, signed by each Lender:

                  (i) postponement of the Term Loan Maturity Date;

                  (ii) change in the definition of Requisite Lenders or in the
         aggregate Pro Rata Share of the Lenders which shall be required for the
         Lenders or any of them to take action hereunder or under the other Loan
         Documents,

                  (iii) amendment of Section 14.6 or this Section 14.7,

                  (iv) assignment of any right or interest in or under this
         Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by the Borrower,

                  (v) waiver of any Event of Default under Section 11.1(a),
         Section 11.1(f) or Section 11.1(g), and

                  (vi) amendment or release of the Guaranties, except in
         connection with the permitted sale of an Unencumbered Project or
         Unencumbered New York City Asset by a Guarantor.

              (d) Administrative Agent Authority. Subject to the second
succeeding sentence of this subsection (d), the Administrative Agent may, but
shall have no obligation to, with the written concurrence of any Lender, execute
amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of that Lender.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 14.7, no
amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall affect the rights or duties of
the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
unless made in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the
Lenders required above to take such action. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, in the event that the Borrower shall have requested, in writing,
that any Lender agree to an amendment, modification, waiver or consent with
respect to any particular provision or provisions of this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents, and such Lender shall have failed to state, in writing, that it
either agrees or disagrees (in full or in part) with all such requests (in the
case of its statement of agreement, subject to satisfactory documentation and
such other conditions it may specify) within fifteen (15) days after such
request, then such Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent
to agree or disagree, in full or in part, and in the Administrative Agent's sole
discretion, to such requests on behalf of such Lender as such Lender's
attorney-in-fact and to execute and deliver any writing approved by the
Administrative Agent which evidences such agreement as such Lender's duly
authorized agent for such purposes; provided, however, that such request shall
state, in capital letters that "FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST WITHIN
FIFTEEN (15) DAYS AFTER RECEIPT, SHALL BE DEEMED AUTHORIZATION TO THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT WITH RESPECT TO THE ENCLOSED REQUEST".

         14.8. NOTICES. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any
notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be
in writing and may be personally served, sent by facsimile transmission or by
courier service or United States certified mail and shall be deemed to have been
given when delivered in person or by courier service, upon receipt of a
facsimile transmission, or four (4) Business Days after deposit in the United
States mail with postage prepaid and properly addressed. Notices to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Articles II, IV or XII shall not be effective
until received by the Administrative Agent. For the purposes hereof, the
addresses of the parties hereto (until notice of a change thereof is delivered
as provided in this Section 14.8) shall be (i) for the Borrower, as set forth on
its signature page to this Agreement, and (ii) for the Lenders, as set forth on
SCHEDULE LC hereto or on the applicable Assignment and Acceptance by which such
party became a Lender hereunder, or, as to each party, at such other address as
may be designated by such party in a written notice to all of the other parties
to this Agreement.

         14.9. SURVIVAL OF WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS. All representations and
warranties made herein and all obligations of the Borrower in respect of taxes,
indemnification and expense reimbursement shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the making and
repayment of the Loans and, in the case of any Lender that may assign any
interest in its Term Loan Commitment, or Loans hereunder, shall survive the
making of such assignment, notwithstanding that such assigning Lender may cease
to be a "Lender" hereunder, and, except for the representations and warranties,
the termination of this Agreement other than any of the foregoing set forth in
Section 13.1 or Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 or Section 5.2(f), which shall
survive for thirty (30) days after termination of this Agreement.

         14.10. FAILURE OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No
failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the
exercise of any power, right or privilege under any of the Loan Documents shall
impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any
default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
such power, right or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
of any other right, power or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under
the Loan Documents are cumulative to and not exclusive of any rights or remedies
otherwise available.

<PAGE>

         14.11. PAYMENTS SET ASIDE. To the extent that the Borrower makes a
payment or payments to the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any Lender or
any such Person exercises its rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or
the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to
be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such
recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied,
and all right and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full
force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or
setoff had not occurred.

         14.12. SEVERABILITY. In case any provision in or obligation under this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other
jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

         14.13. HEADINGS. Section headings in this Agreement are included herein
for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this
Agreement or be given any substantive effect.

         14.14. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE INTERPRETED, AND THE
RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO DETERMINED, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS
PRINCIPLES.

         14.15. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. No claim may be made by any Lender, the
Arranger, the Administrative Agent, or any other Person against any Lender
(acting in any capacity hereunder) or the Affiliates, directors, officers,
employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any consequential or punitive
damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of
liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and
each Lender, the Arranger and the Administrative Agent 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.

         14.16. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
the successors and permitted assigns of the Lenders. Except as otherwise
provided in Section 10.6, the rights and obligations hereunder of the Borrower,
or any interest therein, may not be assigned without the written consent of all
Lenders (and any such attempted assignment without such consent shall be null
and void).

         14.17. CERTAIN CONSENTS AND WAIVERS OF THE BORROWER.

              (a) Personal Jurisdiction. (i) EACH OF THE AGENTS, THE LENDERS,
AND THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS
PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY NEW YORK STATE COURT OR
FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK, AND ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION
OVER APPEALS OF MATTERS HEARD IN SUCH COURTS, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING
ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP
ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER ARISING IN
CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY
JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES
THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND
DETERMINED IN SUCH STATE COURT OR, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN SUCH

FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE
ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER
PROVIDED BY LAW. EACH OF THE AGENTS, THE LENDERS, AND THE BORROWER WAIVES IN ALL
DISPUTES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY HAVE TO THE LOCATION OF THE COURT CONSIDERING

              (ii) THE BORROWER AGREES THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT SHALL HAVE

FORUM NON CONVENIENS) WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY
SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT IN ANY JURISDICTION SET FORTH ABOVE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE
RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE
RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE LENDERS TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST
THE BORROWER IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

              (c) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE AGENTS AND THE LENDERS AND

         14.18. COUNTERPARTS; EFFECTIVENESS; INCONSISTENCIES. This Agreement and
any amendments, waivers, consents, or supplements hereto may be executed in
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an
original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the
same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective against the Borrower and
each Agent and Lender on the Closing Date. This Agreement and each of the other
Loan Documents shall be construed to the extent reasonable to be consistent one
with the other, but to the extent that the terms and conditions of this
Agreement are actually inconsistent with the terms and conditions of any other
Loan Document, this Agreement shall govern.

         14.19. LIMITATION ON AGREEMENTS. All agreements between the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and each Lender in the Loan Documents are
hereby expressly limited so that in no event shall any of the Loans or other
amounts payable by the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents be directly or
indirectly secured (within the meaning of Regulation U) by Margin Stock.

         14.20. DISCLAIMERS. The Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the
Lenders shall not be liable to any contractor, subcontractor, supplier, laborer,
architect, engineer, tenant or other party for services performed or materials
supplied in connection with any work performed on the Projects, including any TI
Work. The Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the Lenders shall not be liable
for any debts or claims accruing in favor of any such parties against the
Borrower or others or against any of the Projects. The Borrower is not and shall
not be an agent of any Agent, the Arranger or the Lenders for any purposes and
none of the Lenders, the Arranger, or the Agents shall be deemed partners or
joint venturers with Borrower. None of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or
the Lenders shall be deemed to be in privity of contract with any contractor or
provider of services to any Project, nor shall any payment of funds directly to
a contractor or subcontractor or provider of services be deemed to create any
third party beneficiary status or recognition of same by any of the
Administrative Agent, the Arranger or the Lenders and the Borrower agrees to
hold the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the Lenders harmless from any of
the damages and expenses resulting from such a construction of the relationship
of the parties or any assertion thereof.

         14.21. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, taken together with all of the
other Loan Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the
parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, written
and oral, relating to the subject matter hereof.

         14.22. CONFIDENTIALITY. Each of the Agents, the Arranger and the
Lenders agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided to it by
the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement that is designated by the Borrower as
confidential; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Agents or the
Lenders from disclosing any such information (a) to the Agents, any other Lender
or any Lender Affiliate (provided such Lender Affiliate is made aware of the
confidentiality of such information and agrees to keep such information
confidential), (b) to any Assignee, Participant or prospective Assignee or
Participant or any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any
swap or derivative transactions relating to the Borrower and its Obligations
(provided such Person is made aware of the confidentiality of such information
and agrees to keep such information confidential), (c) to the employees,
directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors of any
Lender, Assignee, Participant, prospective Assignee or Participant who are
advised of the provisions of this Section, (d) upon the request or demand of any
Governmental Authority having or asserting jurisdiction over either Agent or any
Lender, (e) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental
Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law,
(f) if requested or required to do so in connection with the exercise of any
remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (g) upon the advice of
counsel that such disclosure is required by law, (h) with the consent of the
Borrower, (i) in connection with any litigation to which any Agent, Arranger or
Lender is a party, or (j) to the extent such information becomes publicly
available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 14.22 or becomes
available to any Agent, Arranger or Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a
source other than the Borrower.

         14.23. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

         14.24. USA PATRIOT ACT. Each of the Lenders hereby notifies Borrower
that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of
Pub.L.107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "ACT"), it is required to
obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which
information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that
will allow such Bank to identify Borrower in accordance with the Act. Neither
the execution and delivery of the Notes and the other Loan Documents by the

    EMPLOYMENT
      AGREEMENT

    

    

    This
      Employment Agreement (the "Agreement"), effective as of March 15, 2005 (the
      "Effective Date"), is between Century Casinos, Inc., a Delaware corporation,
      whose principal executive offices are located in Colorado Springs, Colorado
      ("Employer"), and Mr. Ray Sienko ("Employee").

    

    Recitals

    

    A.    Employee
      has been employed by Employer since 2000 and wishes to continue employment
      by
      Employer. Employer wishes to retain the services of Employee and Employer and
      Employee wish to formalize the terms and conditions of their agreements and
      understandings concerning Employee’s employment.

    

    B.    Employee’s
      employment by Employer, the mutual covenants stated in this Agreement, and
      other
      valuable consideration, the receipt of which is acknowledged by Employee, are
      sufficient consideration for this Agreement.

    

    C.    This
      Agreement supersedes and replaces any prior oral or written employment
      agreements entered into by and between Employer and Employee, and the terms
      of
      this Agreement shall be held confidential by Employee.

    

    Agreement

    

    The
      parties agree as follows:

     

    1.    Employment.
      As of
      the Effective Date, Employer shall employ Employee, and Employee agrees to
      accept such employment. 

    

    2.    Term
      of Agreement.
      The
      term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue
      until terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

     

    3.    Actions
      of Employer.
      All
      actions by and decisions of Employer contemplated in this Agreement will be
      made
      by Employer’s Executive Committee, which may from time to time appoint one of
      its members under this Agreement to carry out its functions. Nevertheless,
      Employee understands that Employer’s Compensation Committee must approve all
      decisions concerning Employee’s salary. 

    

    4.    Duties
      of Employee.
      Employee's main duties on behalf of Employer as of the Effective Date shall
      be
      to act as Chief Accounting Officer of Century Casinos, Inc. Employee will
      undertake and assume the responsibility of performing for and on behalf of
      Employer whatever duties are necessary and required in such position. Employee
      will devote Employee's full time and energies and best efforts to the
      performance of such duties, to the exclusion of all other activities that
      conflict in any material way with Employee's duties under this Agreement.
      Specific duties, and limitations on authority, of Employee may be addressed
      by
      separate memoranda or other instructions. In performing his duties, Employee
      recognizes and agrees that he will abide by the Employer’s Code of
      Ethics.

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    

    5.    Location
      of Work; Payment for Various Expenses.
      The
      parties contemplate that Employee’s primary duty location will be in Colorado
      Springs, Colorado. Nevertheless, Employee recognizes and agrees that his duties
      will require traveling, including international travel, for meetings and to
      assist all entities operated by Century Casinos Inc.

    

    6.    Compensation.
      

    

    (a)    Salary.
      Employer will pay to Employee a yearly salary (“Base Salary”) of one hundred
      thousand Dollars ($100,000), payable on the payroll dates established by
      Employer from time to time. The amount of the Base Salary can be reviewed by
      Employer annually.

    

    (b)    Bonus.
      Employee shall be eligible to receive a yearly bonus of fifteen thousand Dollars
      ($15,000), based upon satisfactorily reaching various budget, financial and
      other criteria that are established for each calendar year in question. Employee
      shall only be eligible for such a bonus if he is employed on the last day of
      the
      calendar year to which the bonus applies. The Bonus amount can be reviewed
      by
      Employer annually.

    

    (c)    Vacations/Sick
      Days.
      Employee will be entitled to paid vacations of four weeks per calendar year,
      in
      accordance with the procedures established by Employer. Any specific vacation
      of
      more than one week's duration is subject to the advance approval of Employer.
      No
      more than ten vacation days are allowed to be carried over from one year to
      the
      next. Employee is entitled to six paid sick days per calendar year. Employee
      may
      accrue unused sick time from year to year up to a limit of eight days total
      sick
      days. No payments shall be made for accumulated sick days.

    

    (d)    Additional
      Benefits.
      Currently, Employee will be entitled to the following benefits: 401(k) and
      medical/hospitalization insurance (for Employee and his immediate family) in
      accordance with Employer’s normal policies, and the holidays observed by
      Employer pursuant to its normal policies by which employees are granted a day
      off with pay. In addition, Employee will be entitled to additional benefits
      in
      accordance with Employer's policies, as they may be established and modified
      by
      Employer from time to time, for persons holding similar positions with Employer,
      as determined by Employer in its sole discretion. 

    

    (e)    Reimbursement
      of Business Expenses.
      Employer will reimburse all reasonable expenses incurred by Employee on behalf
      of Employer in connection with Employee’s performance of duties under this
      Agreement, in accordance with the Employer’s Travel Policy, and subject in each
      case to compliance by Employee with any reasonable requirements imposed by
      Employer concerning submission of invoices, prior approval, tax deductibility
      of
      expenses, and similar matters.

    

    (f)    Stock
      Options.
      Employee will be eligible to participate in any stock option plan and bonus
      plan
      or policy for persons holding similar positions with Employer that may be
      established by Employer. The number of options granted to Employee, if any,
      and
      the terms of such options are solely within the discretion of Employer’s Board
      of Directors and/or Employer’s Executive Committee, Incentive Plan Committee
      and/or Compensation Committee, as the legal requirements may
      be.

                within a reasonable period after Employer gives written notice to
                Employee

                persistent failure of Employee in any material respect to perform

                a disability as determined under common law or any pertinent statutory
                provision, including without limitation the Americans With Disabilities
                Act), if Employee does not correct such failure within a reasonable
                period
                after Employer gives written notice to Employee (with such notice

                failure). Employer and Employee agree that the provisions of (F)
                are not
                intended to provide grounds for a termination for Cause merely because
                of
                an isolated failure on the part of Employee to satisfy performance
                goals
                set by Employer.

              Noncompetition,
                Nonsolicitation, Disparagement.

            

    

    

    (a)    Covenant
      not to Compete.
      During
      the period that Employee is employed by Employer and thereafter for the
      pertinent Noncompetition Period, Employee (i) will not directly or indirectly
      own, control, operate, manage, consult for, own shares in, be employed by,
      or
      otherwise participate in any sole proprietorship, corporation, partnership,
      or
      other entity whose primary business is the Business (as defined below), within
      100 miles of any location in which Employer operates, or has any interest in,
      any casino or other entity in which legal gambling is permitted or undertaken
      and (ii) will not solicit any actual or potential customers of Employer, any
      consultants to any such actual or potential customers, or any suppliers of
      Employer. The “Business” means any of the following: the operation or management
      of any casino or other entity in which legal gambling of any form is permitted
      or undertaken. (The restrictions in 8(a)(i) above, shall also include any
      location in which the Employer has proposed to do Business, or has made plans
      to
      make such a proposal.) Notwithstanding the foregoing restriction, Employee
      may
      own beneficially, or of record, less than two percent of the outstanding shares
      or other equity interests of any entity in the Business whose stock is traded
      publicly on NASDAQ or another nationally recognized stock exchange. The parties
      specifically agree that the Noncompetition Periods specified in paragraph 7
      and
      the geographical scope discussed above are reasonably necessary to protect
      Employer’s interests, including Employer’s trade secrets.

     

    (b)    Nonsolicitation.
      During
      the period that Employee is employed by Employer and thereafter for the
      pertinent Nonsolicitation Period, Employee will not solicit or attempt to
      solicit for employment, for any other employer, any person while such person
      is
      an employee or consultant of Employer or of any subsidiary or parent company
      of
      Employer, and Employee will not solicit for employment or employ any such person
      within six months after such person ceases to be an employee or consultant
      of
      Employer.

    

    (c)    Disparagement.
      During
      the Nonsolicitation Period, Employee will not disparage, criticize, or demean
      Employer, its reputation, employees, directors, Officers, services, products,
      manner of conducting business, customers, or suppliers, or any other aspect
      of
      Employer, by any communication whatsoever. Likewise, during this Period, the
      Employer will respond to requests for information concerning Employee’s
      employment with a neutral response reflecting Employee’s dates of employment,
      positions held and ending pay rate.

              Confidential
                Information, Trade Secrets and Intellectual Property.
                

            

    

    

    (a)    Confidential
      Information.
      Employee acknowledges that information, observations, and data (including but
      not limited to customer/client lists) obtained by Employee, both prior to the
      Effective Date and after the Effective Date, concerning the business or affairs
      of Employer, constitute confidential information, are trade secrets, are the
      property of Employer, and are essential and confidential components of
      Employer's business. Employee will not at any time, either during or after
      employment with Employer, directly or indirectly disclose to any person or
      use
      any of such information, observations or data, except as required by Employee’s
      duties in the course of Employee's employment with Employer, and except to
      the
      extent that:

              (i)

            	
              the
                information was within the public domain at the time it was provided
                to
                Employee;

            

    

    

    
      	 	
              (ii)

            	
              the
                information was published or otherwise became part of the public
                domain
                after it was provided to Employee through no fault of
                Employee;

            

    

    

    
      	 	
              (iii)

            	
              the
                information already was in Employee's possession at the time Employer
                disclosed it to Employee, was not acquired by Employee directly or
                indirectly from anyone with a duty of confidentiality to Employer,
                and was
                not acquired by Employee under circumstances in which Employee already
                was
                an employee of or a consultant to Employer, or had a duty of
                confidentiality to Employer; or

            

    

    

    
      	 	
              (iv)

            	
              the
                information is required to be disclosed (A) by any federal or state
                law
                rule or regulation, (B) by any applicable judgment, order, or decree
                of
                any court, governmental agency or arbitrator having or purporting
                to have
                jurisdiction in the matter, or (C) pursuant to any subpoena or other
                discovery request in any litigation, arbitration or other proceeding,
                but
                if Employee proposes to disclose the information in accordance with
                (A),
                (B), or (C), Employee will first give Employer reasonable prior notice
                of
                the proposed disclosure of any such information so as to provide
                Employer
                an opportunity to consult with Employee as to the applicability of
                such
                law, rule, or regulation or to appear before any court, governmental
                agency, or arbitrator in order to contest the disclosure, as the
                case may
                be, and prior to any such disclosure will redact confidential information
                to the maximum extent permissible.

            

    

    

    (b)    Return
      of Documents, Etc.
      Immediately upon termination of Employee's employment with Employer or at any
      time upon notice to Employee from Employer, Employee will deliver to Employer
      all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, and other documents and
      information provided to Employee by Employer or created by Employee in
      connection with Employee's employment, including, but not limited to information
      stored in electronic format on PCs, laptops, external hard disks, CDs, etc.
      and
      all copies of all such documents in any tangible form which Employee may then
      possess or have under Employee's control, and will destroy all of such
      information in intangible form which is in Employee's possession or under
      Employee's control.

    

    10.    Survival
      of Obligations Upon Employee's Termination.
      The
      obligations of Employee in Sections 8 and 9 will survive the termination of
      Employee's employment with Employer. The obligations of Employee in Section
      9
      will survive the termination of Employee's employment with Employer without
      limitation, whether termination is initiated by Employee or by Employer, and
      will continue until Employer consents in writing to the release of Employee's
      obligations under Section 9 this Agreement.

    11.    Remedy
      for Breach.
      Both
      Employee and Employer expressly acknowledge that the subject matter of this
      Agreement is unique, and that any breach of Employee's obligations under
      Sections 8 and 9 is likely to result in irreparable injury to Employer, and
      the
      parties therefore expressly agree that Employer will be entitled to obtain
      specific performance of this Agreement through injunctive relief and such
      ancillary remedies of an equitable nature as a court may deem appropriate.
      Such
      equitable relief will be in addition to, and the availability of such equitable
      relief will not preclude, any legal remedies or other remedies, which might
      be
      available to such party. If Employee breaches any provisions in Sections 8
      or 9,
      Employer is entitled to apply for equitable relief in the Colorado District
      Court, Fourth Judicial District, prior to initiation of mediation. Employer's
      application for temporary injunctive relief will not limit Employer from
      pursuing any other available remedies for such breach. Employee specifically
      agrees with the designation of this court and waives any objection or defense
      based on forum non-conveniens, improper venue or lack of personal
      jurisdiction.

    

    12.    Severability.
      Each
      provision of this Agreement is intended to be severable, and if any portion
      of
      this Agreement is held invalid, illegal, unenforceable or void for any reason,
      the remainder of this Agreement will nonetheless remain in full force and
      effect. Any portion held to be invalid, unenforceable, or void will, if
      possible, be deemed amended or reduced in scope, but such amendment or reduction
      in scope will be made only to the minimum extent required for causing such
      portion to be valid and enforceable.

    

    13.    General
      Acknowledgments.
      Employee and Employer expressly agree that the restrictions on Employee's
      activities imposed under Section 8 are reasonable in their temporal and
      geographic scope and with respect to the nature of the activities so restricted
      and that the restrictions on Employee's activities imposed under Section 9
      are
      reasonable and necessary to protect the trade secrets and other Confidential
      Information of Employer. The parties expressly agree that (i) Employee is
      benefited by these restrictions, insofar as other persons in similar managerial
      positions with Employer have entered or will enter into similar agreements
      with
      Employer, (ii) these restrictions are reasonable and necessary to protect
      Employer and its subsidiaries from loss of property rights and from competing
      efforts, and (iii) because of these restrictions Employer is willing to share
      its trade secrets and confidential information with Employee to enable Employee
      to perform his or her duties. The parties further expressly agree that, if
      any
      court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of Section 8
      or
      Section 9 is unreasonable, the court will not declare the provision
      invalid, but rather will reform and modify the provision, and enforce the
      provision as reformed and modified, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
      The
      existence of any claim or cause of action of Employee against Employer, whether
      predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, will not constitute a defense to
      the
      enforcement by Employer of the provisions of Section 8 or Section
      9.

    

    14.    Non-Waiver.
      The
      failure to enforce any right arising under this Agreement or any similar
      agreement on one or more occasions will not be deemed or construed to be a
      waiver of that right under this Agreement or any other agreement on any other
      occasion, or of any other right on that occasion or any other
      occasion.

    15.    Employee
      Warranties.
      Employee warrants to Employer that, as of the Effective Date, (a) Employee
      is
      not employed and is not a party to another employment contract, express or
      implied; (b) Employee has no other obligation, contractual or otherwise, which
      would prevent Employee from entering into this Agreement and from complying
      with
      its provisions; (c) Employee does not possess, and will not utilize during
      Employee's employment with Employer, any confidential information obtained
      by
      Employee through or in connection with any prior employment, relating to any
      prior employer's business, products, services, techniques, methods, systems,
      plans, policies, prices, customers, prospective customers, or employees; and
      (d)
      Employee has given Employer timely written notice of any of Employee's prior
      employment agreements or patent rights that might conflict with any interest
      of
      Employer and has provided Employer with a copy of such agreements or patent
      rights, including any applications for such rights.

    

    16.    Dispute
      Resolution.
      Subject
      to Employer’s right to seek equitable relief under Section 11, which is not
      affected by this Section, Employer and Employee agree to submit to final,
      binding arbitration, any and all claims, disputes or controversies between
      Employee and Employer, any business affiliated with Employer, or any of the
      respective directors, managers, employees or agents of such businesses,
      including, but not limited to, claims, disputes or controversies arising out
      of
      or related to this Agreement or the breach thereof. The parties agree that
      such
      arbitration is pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitration shall
      be
      governed by the then-existing rules of the American Arbitration Association
      for
      Employment Arbitration and will be held in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The
      arbitrator will be selected pursuant to the mutual agreement of the parties,
      and, if the parties are unable to agree, the arbitrator will be designated
      by
      the Chief Judge of the Fourth Judicial District Court, State of Colorado. The
      award rendered by the arbitrator shall be enforced, if necessary, in the United
      States District Court for the District of Colorado. The arbitrator shall apply
      the substantive law of the State of Colorado and may award any relief recognized
      by Colorado law, which could be awarded by a District Court of the State of
      Colorado, including injunctive relief and attorney’s fees. The arbitrator shall
      award reasonable attorney’s fees and costs to the prevailing party.

    

    17.    Integration
      Clause and Modification.
      This
      Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between
      the
      parties and supersedes all proposals, prior agreements, and all other
      communications between the parties, oral or in writing, relating to the subject
      matter of this Agreement. This Agreement may be amended or superseded only
      by an
      agreement in writing, signed by Employee and the CEO / Compensation Committee
      of
      Employer.
