 In connection with the Mortgage Loan Amendment and the terms thereof, Borrower, Equity Owner and

the Mortgage Loan Agreement (as amended by the Mortgage Loan Amendment), Borrower shall be permitted to prepay the Loan in full, but not in part, without any requirement of Mortgage Borrower to make a corresponding
pro-rata prepayment of the Mortgage Loan, and without the application of such prepayment pro rata between the Loan and the Mortgage Loan. Any voluntary prepayment of the Loan before such date shall otherwise
be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.4 of the Loan Agreement. 

  

	B.	Miscellaneous 

 (a) Borrower, Equity Owner and Guarantor each hereby certifies
that each of the representations and warranties of Borrower, Equity Owner and Guarantor, respectively, in the Loan Documents is true, complete and correct in all material respects of the date hereof.

with respect to its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party, respectively, and (ii) waives all offsets, defenses and claims it may have against Lender or Agent that accrued on or before the date hereof. 

(e) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Letter Agreement shall not, except to the extent expressly provided herein, operate as a
waiver of any right, power or remedy of any of Agent or Lender under the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by Agent or Lender. 

(f) On the date hereof, Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid, all fees and expenses of Agent and Lender incurred in connection with this
Letter Agreement including, without limitation, any and all reasonable legal fees.

extent and with the same force as if fully set forth herein. 
 (l) None of Borrower, Equity Owner or Guarantor shall transfer or assign,
directly or indirectly, any of their respective rights under this Letter Agreement to any other person or entity, without in each case obtaining the prior written consent of Lender in each instance, which consent may be granted or withheld by Lender
