 1.4 Loan Documents. This Agreement, the
Note, the Deed of Trust, the Guaranties, and all other documents and instruments evidencing, securing or otherwise pertaining to the Loan, or any other Secured Obligations (as defined in the Deed of Trust) are referred to as the “Loan
Documents.” However, Swap Contracts (as defined in the Deed of Trust) are not Loan Documents. 
  
 1.5 Automatic Deduction. Borrower agrees that principal and interest payments on the Note will be deducted automatically on the due date from
checking account number 17685-00608 maintained by Borrower at Bank (the “Checking Account”) as provided in the Note. 
  
 1.6 Disbursement Procedures. Bank will disburse the Loan Proceeds as follows: 
  
 (a) First, to Fidelity National Title Insurance Company, to disburse on behalf of Borrower the remaining
Loan proceeds to pay for the title policy, endorsements and related fees and to pay the purchase price of the Property. In the event the Loan proceeds are not sufficient to pay the purchase price of the Property in full, Borrower shall pay from its
own funds any remaining amounts required to pay such purchase price in full. In the event there is an excess of Loan proceeds, said excess shall be immediately disbursed to Borrower. 
  
 2. COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER 
  
 Borrower promises to keep each of the following covenants: 
  
 2.1 Compliance with Law. Borrower will comply with all applicable laws, regulations, orders, building restrictions and requirements of, and all
permits and approvals from, and agreements with and commitments to, all governmental, judicial or legal authorities having jurisdiction over the Property or Borrower’s business conducted thereon or therefrom, and with all restrictive covenants
and other title encumbrances encumbering the Property (all collectively, the “Requirements”), non-compliance with which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 2.2 Conditional Sales Contracts; Removal of Fixtures and Equipment.
Without Bank’s prior written consent, Borrower must not (a) purchase any materials, equipment, furnishings or fixtures to be installed on the Property under any agreement where the seller reserves a lien, security interest or title thereto, or
the right of removal or repossession after such items are installed on the Property, except to the extent any of the foregoing constitutes Permitted Encumbrances; and (b) remove or permit to be removed from the Real Property or the Improvements any
equipment, machinery or fixtures used in connection with the management, maintenance, operation or enjoyment thereof that individually reduce the value of the Property by more than $100,000.00 unless (i) replaced by articles of equal suitability and
value owned by Borrower free and clear of any lien or security interest (except that created by the Deed of Trust and the Permitted Encumbrances), or (ii) it is determined by the Borrower in good faith that such equipment, machinery or fixtures are
not essential to the management, maintenance, operation or enjoyment of the Real Property or the Improvements. 
  
 2.3 Site Visits. Borrower grants Bank, its agents and representatives the right to enter and visit the Property during normal business hours, after
giving reasonable prior notice to Borrower, for the purposes of observing, performing appraisals, inspecting the Property, taking environmental samples, and conducting tests, among other things, to investigate for the presence of Hazardous
Substances, as defined in Section 4.1. Borrower shall reimburse Bank on demand for the costs of any such environmental investigation and testing. Bank will make reasonable efforts during any site visit, observation or testing conducted pursuant to
this paragraph to avoid interfering with Borrower’s use of the Property. Borrower shall also allow Bank to examine, copy and audit its books and records with respect to the Property. Bank is under no duty to visit or observe the Property, or to
examine any 

  

 RESU Standing Loan Agreement with Swaps 

					
	 	 	-2-	 	SF-165261 (11/00)

 
books or records and the Bank shall not incur any obligation or liability by reason of not making any such inspection or inquiry. Any site visit, observation
or examination by Bank is solely for the purpose of protecting Bank’s security and preserving Bank’s rights under the Loan Documents. No site visit, observation or testing or any report or findings made as a result thereof
(“Environmental Report”) will (i) result in a waiver of any default of Borrower; (ii) impose any liability on Bank; or (iii) be a representation or warranty of any kind regarding the Property (including its condition or value or compliance
with any laws) or the Environmental Report (including its accuracy or completeness). In the event Bank has a duty or obligation under applicable laws, regulations or other requirements to disclose an Environmental Report to Borrower or any other
party, Borrower authorizes Bank to make such a disclosure. Borrower further understands and agrees that any Environmental Report or other information regarding a site visit, observation or testing that is disclosed to Borrower by Bank or its agents
and representatives is to be evaluated (including any reporting or other disclosure obligations of Borrower) by Borrower without advice or assistance from Bank. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank shall not have the right to conduct environmental
tests or inspections more frequently than once a year in any calendar year, and Bank shall not in any event have the right to perform any environmental sampling or other invasive procedures, unless (A) Bank has reasonable grounds to believe that a
release of Hazardous Substances has occurred at the Real Property in violation of Environmental Laws, (B) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or (C) such tests and/or inspections are required by any of the Requirements, Bank shall
conduct all such tests and inspections except those described in clauses (A), (B), and (C), above, at Bank’s sole cost and expense and shall take all steps reasonably necessary to minimize any disruption or interference with Borrower’s
use, enjoyment and conduct of business of and from the Property. Bank shall hold and keep all such tests, inspections and Environmental Reports strictly confidential except to the extent disclosure is required by any of the Requirements; provided,
however, that Bank shall in any event promptly deliver to Borrower copies of all such Environmental Reports and other information obtained in connection with any such tests or inspections. Bank shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Borrower from
and against all injuries to person and damage to property caused by such tests and inspections. 
  
 2.4 Insurance. Borrower must maintain the following insurance: 
  
 (a) All risk property damage insurance in nonreporting form on the Property, with a policy limit in an
amount not less than the full insurable value of the Property on a replacement cost basis, including tenant improvements, if any. The policy shall include a business interruption (or rent loss, if more appropriate) endorsement, a lender’s loss
payable endorsement (438 BFU) in favor of Bank, and any other endorsements reasonably required by Bank. 
  
 (b) Commercial General Liability coverage with such limits as Bank may reasonably require. This policy must name Bank as an additional
insured. Coverage must be written on an occurrence basis, not claims made. 
  
 (c) Such other insurance as Bank may reasonably require, which may include (i) earthquake insurance, if such insurance is expressly required as a condition to disbursement of the Loan proceeds or if at any time the
Property is situated in a delineated earthquake fault zone as shown on an earthquake fault zone map adopted under California’s Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Act, or any successor thereto, and (ii) flood insurance, if the Property is
situated in an area designated as “flood prone,” “within a flood plain” or similar designation under federal or state law. 
  
 All policies of insurance required by Bank must be issued by companies reasonably approved by Bank and otherwise be acceptable to Bank as to amounts, forms, risk
coverages and deductibles. In addition, each policy (except workers’ compensation) must provide Bank at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice of cancellation, non-renewal or reduction in coverage. If Borrower fails to keep any such coverage
in effect while the Loan is outstanding, Bank may procure the coverage at Borrower’s expense. Borrower must reimburse Bank, on demand, for all premiums advanced by Bank, which advances are considered to be additional loans to Borrower secured
by the Deed of Trust and bearing interest at the Default Rate provided in the Note. 
  
 2.5 Preservation of Rights. Borrower must obtain, preserve and maintain in good standing, as applicable, all rights, privileges and franchises necessary or desirable for the operation of the Property and the
conduct of Borrower’s business thereon and therefrom, to the extent the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 2.6 Maintenance and Repair. Borrower must (a) maintain the Property, including the parking and landscaping portions
thereof, in good condition and repair, subject to reasonable wear and tear, (b) promptly make, or cause any tenants to make all necessary structural and non-structural repairs to the Property, and (c) not demolish, alter, remove or add to any
Improvements, excepting (i) the installation or construction of tenant 

  

 RESU Standing Loan Agreement with Swaps 

					
	 	 	-3-	 	SF-165261 (11/00)

 
improvements in connection with any leases approved in accordance with this Agreement, (ii) any installations or other improvements to the Improvements
approved by Bank, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, or (iii) other installations or improvements in the ordinary course of business and not affecting, in any materially adverse manner, the value of the
Property (including, without limitation, Borrower’s initial improvements and installations to prepare the Property for occupancy and use by Borrower as a distribution facility). Borrower shall pay when due all claims for labor performed and
materials furnished therefor in connection with any improvements or construction activities other than (i) those being contested in good faith and for which adequate reserves are maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, consistently applied (“GAAP”) or (ii) those for which the non-payment of which would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 2.7 Payment of Expenses. Borrower must pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Bank in connection with the
making, disbursement and administration of the Loan, as well as any revisions, extensions, renewals or “workouts” of the Loan, and in the exercise of any of Bank’s rights or remedies under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or
Swap Contract (as defined in the Deed of Trust). Such costs and expenses include title insurance, recording and escrow charges, fees for appraisal, environmental services, reasonable legal fees and expenses of Bank’s counsel and any other
reasonable fees and costs for services, regardless of whether such services are furnished by Bank’s employees or by independent contractors. Borrower acknowledges that the Loan Fee does not include amounts payable by Borrower under this
section. All such sums incurred by Bank and not immediately reimbursed by Borrower are considered additional loans to Borrower secured by the Deed of Trust and bearing interest at the Default Rate provided in the Note.

 (a) Borrower will furnish or cause to be furnished to Bank
as soon as available, but in any event within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of Borrower, a consolidated balance sheet of Borrower, as at the end of such fiscal year, and the related consolidated statements of income or operations,
shareholders’ equity and cash flows for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year, all in reasonable detail and prepared in accordance with GAAP, audited and accompanied by a
report and opinion of an independent certified public accountant of nationally recognized standing reasonably acceptable to the Bank, which report and opinion shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and shall not

Bank a duly completed Compliance Certificate signed by a responsible officer of Borrower, in substantially the form set forth on Schedule 2 hereto; and

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other Loan Document or the Swap Contracts, the provisions of this Section 2.10 are not secured by the Deed of Trust, and shall survive the termination of this Agreement, repayment of the Loan and

 4.
HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES 
  
 Notwithstanding any provision in the
Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Section 4 are not to be secured by the Deed of Trust and shall survive termination of this Agreement, repayment of the Loan, and foreclosure of the Deed of Trust or similar
proceedings, until any applicable statutes of limitations have lapsed. 
  
 4.1 Definition of Hazardous Substance. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Hazardous Substance” is defined to mean any substance, material or waste, including asbestos and petroleum (including crude oil or any fraction
thereof), which is or becomes designated, classified or regulated as “toxic,” “hazardous,” a “pollutant” or similar designation under any current or future federal, state or local law, regulation or ordinance.

  
 4.2 Indemnity Regarding Hazardous Substances. Borrower
agrees to indemnify and hold Bank harmless from and against all liabilities, claims, actions, loss, damages, including, without limitation, foreseeable and unforeseeable consequential damages, costs and expenses (including sums paid in settlement of
claims and all consultant, expert and legal fees and expenses of Bank’s counsel) (all or any portion of the foregoing being referred to as an “Environmental Claim”) directly or indirectly arising out of or resulting from any Hazardous
Substance being present at any time on or in any part of the Property, or in the soil, groundwater or soil vapor on or under the Property, including those incurred in connection with any investigation of site conditions or any clean-up, remedial,
removal or restoration work, or any resulting damages or injuries to the person or property of any third parties or to any natural resources. In addition, Borrower must indemnify, defend and hold harmless against any Environmental Claims, (i) any
persons purchasing the Loan, any Swap or any portion of or interest in any Loan or Swap (each a “Participant”) and (ii) Bank or any Participant purchasing the Property through a foreclosure sale. Upon demand by Bank, Borrower must defend
any investigation, action or proceeding alleging the presence of any Hazardous Substance in any such location, which affects the Property or which is brought or commenced against Bank, whether alone or together with Borrower or any other person, all
at Borrower’s own cost and by counsel to be approved by Bank in the exercise of its reasonable judgment. In the alternative, Bank may elect to conduct its own defense at the expense of Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section 4.2, Borrower shall not be required to indemnify Bank or any Participant against any Environmental Claim relating to Hazardous Substances to the extent such Environmental Claim was caused directly or indirectly by the
actions of Bank or such Participant, or any of their respective agents, representatives, transferees, assigns or similar persons acting on behalf of or in concert with Bank or such Participant. 
  
 4.3 Representation and Warranty. Before signing this Agreement,
Borrower researched and inquired into the previous, current and contemplated uses and ownership of the Property. Based on that due diligence, Borrower represents and warrants that, to the best of its knowledge, no Hazardous Substance has been or
will be disposed of, released onto or otherwise exists in, on, or under the Property, except as Borrower has disclosed to Bank in writing.

 4.4 Compliance with Law; Notices. Borrower has complied, and will comply and will use its
commercially reasonably efforts to cause all occupants of the Property to comply, in each case, in all material respects, with all current and future laws, regulations and ordinances or other requirements of any governmental authority relating to or
imposing liability or standards of conduct concerning protection of health or the environment or Hazardous Substances (“Environmental Laws”), the non-compliance with which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect. Borrower shall promptly, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, take all reasonable actions with respect to any Hazardous Substances or other environmental condition at, on, or under the Property necessary to (i) comply with all
applicable Environmental Laws; or (ii) allow continued use, occupation or operation of the Property. Borrower acknowledges that Hazardous Substances may permanently and materially impair the value and use of the Property. Borrower must promptly
notify Bank in writing if it knows there are any Hazardous Substances in or on the Property, or in the soil, groundwater or soil vapor on or under the Property, or that Borrower or the Property is subject to any pending investigation by any
governmental agency or third party under any current or future law, regulation or ordinance pertaining to any Hazardous Substance or if Borrower has received written notice that the Property may be subject to any such investigation. 
  
 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 Borrower hereby represents and warrants as follows: 
  
 5.1 Formation; Authority. Borrower (i) has complied with all laws and
regulations concerning its organization, existence and the transaction of its business, and (ii) is in good standing in each state in which it conducts its business, except where failure to so comply or be in good standing would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower is authorized to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Loan Documents. 
  
 5.2 Compliance With Law. The Property and the actual use thereof by Borrower comply in all material respects with all Requirements, the
non-compliance with which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower has received no written notices of existing, uncured violations of any Requirements. There are no claims, actions, proceedings or investigations
pending or, to Borrower’s knowledge, threatened in writing against Borrower or affecting the Property except for those previously disclosed by Borrower to Bank in writing. 
  
 5.3 No Violation. The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Swap Contracts and
the performance by Borrower of its obligations hereunder and thereunder will not result in a default under any other material agreement to which Borrower is a party, or violate any Requirements, to the extent such violation would reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 5.4
Financial Information. All financial information which has been delivered to Bank, including all information relating to the financial condition of Borrower, any Guarantor, and the Property, fairly represents, in all material respects, the
financial condition (including all material contingent liabilities) or results of operations being reported on. All such information was prepared in accordance with GAAP, unless otherwise noted. Since the dates of the most recent financial
information delivered to Bank, there has been no material adverse change in the business condition (financial or otherwise), operations, or properties or prospects of Borrower. 
  
 5.5 Lawsuits. There is no lawsuit, tax claim or other dispute pending or threatened against Borrower which, if lost,
would have a Material Adverse Effect, except as has been disclosed in writing to Bank. 
  
 5.6 Other Obligations. Borrower is not in default on any obligation for borrowed money, any purchase money obligation or any other material lease, commitment, contract, instrument or obligation, to the extent
such default would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, except as has been disclosed in writing to Bank. 
  
 5.7 Borrower Not a “Foreign Person”. Borrower is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of Section 1445(f)(3) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time. 
  
 5.8 Disclosure to Guarantor. Before each Guarantor became obligated in connection with the Loan or Swaps, Borrower made full disclosure to that person regarding Borrower’s financial condition and business operations and all
other circumstances bearing upon Borrower’s ability to pay and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents and Swap Contracts.

 5.9 Ownership of Property. Borrower owns directly, and not through any affiliated entity, all of
the personal property and fixtures necessary for the operation and management of the Property for the uses presently being conducted thereon. 
  
 5.10 ERISA Compliance. 
  
 (a) Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other Federal or state Laws.
Each Plan that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS or an application for such a letter is currently being processed by the IRS with respect thereto (or there is remaining
a period of time under applicable Treasury regulations or IRS pronouncements in which to apply for such a letter and make amendments necessary to obtain a favorable determination letter) and, to the best knowledge of Borrower, nothing has occurred
which would prevent, or cause the loss of, such qualification. Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate have made all required contributions to each Plan subject to Section 412 of the Code and except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and no application for a funding waiver or an extension of any amortization period pursuant to Section 412 of the Code has been made with respect to any Plan. 
  
 (b) There are no pending or, to the best knowledge of
Borrower, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority, with respect to any Plan that could be reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the

 6.2 Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs under this Agreement, Bank may exercise any right or remedy which it has under any of the Loan
Documents, or which is otherwise available at law or in equity or by statute, and all of Bank’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative. All of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents and Swap Contracts shall become immediately due
and payable without notice of default, presentment or demand for payment, protest or notice of nonpayment or dishonor, or other notices or demands of any kind or character, all at Bank’s option, exercisable in its sole discretion. 

 
 7. ARBITRATION. 
  
 7.1 Arbitration. This section concerns the resolution of any
controversies or claims between Borrower and Bank (collectively a “Claim”), whether arising in contract, tort or by statute, including but not limited to controversies or claims that arise out of or relate to this Agreement (including any
renewals, extensions or modifications) or the Loan Documents or the Swap Contracts. At the request of Borrower or Bank, any Claim shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9, U. S. Code) (the
“Act”). The Act will apply even though this Agreement provides that it is governed by the law of a specified state. Arbitration proceedings will be determined in accordance with the Act, the applicable rules and procedures for the
arbitration of disputes of JAMS or any successor thereof (“JAMS”), and the terms of this paragraph. In the event of any 

  

 RESU Standing Loan Agreement with Swaps 

					
	 	 	-9-	 	SF-165261 (11/00)

 
inconsistency, the terms of this paragraph shall control. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS and conducted in any U. S. state where real or
tangible personal property collateral for this credit is located or if there is no such collateral, in California. All Claims shall be determined by one arbitrator; however, if Claims exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), upon the request of any
party, the Claims shall be decided by three arbitrators. All arbitration hearings shall commence within ninety (90) days of the demand for arbitration and close within ninety (90) days of commencement and the award of the arbitrator(s) shall be
issued within thirty (30) days of the close of the hearing. However, the arbitrator(s), upon a showing of good cause, may extend the commencement of the hearing for up to an additional sixty (60) days. The arbitrator(s) shall provide a concise
written statement of reasons for the award. The arbitration award may be submitted to any court having jurisdiction to be confirmed and enforced. The arbitrator(s) will have the authority to decide whether any Claim is barred by the statute of
limitations and, if so, to dismiss the arbitration on that basis. For purposes of the application of the statute of limitations, the service on JAMS under applicable JAMS rules of a notice of Claim is the equivalent of the filing of a lawsuit. Any
dispute concerning this arbitration provision or whether a Claim is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrator(s). The arbitrator(s) shall have the power to award legal fees pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 7.2 Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. This section does
not limit the right of Borrower or Bank to: (i) exercise self-help remedies, such as but not limited to, setoff; (ii) initiate judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure against any real or personal property collateral; (iii) exercise any judicial or power
of sale rights; or (iv) act in a court of law to obtain an interim remedy, such as but not limited to, injunctive relief, writ of possession or appointment of a receiver, or additional or supplementary remedies. 
  
 7.3 Real Property Collateral. The procedure described above will not
apply if the Claim, at the time of the proposed submission to arbitration, arises from or relates to an obligation to Bank secured by real property located in California. In this case, both Borrower and Bank must consent to submission of the Claim
to arbitration. If both parties do not consent to arbitration, the Claim will be resolved as follows: Borrower and Bank will designate a referee (or a panel of referees) selected under the auspices of JAMS in the same manner as arbitrators are
selected in JAMS administered proceedings. The designated referee(s) will be appointed by a court as provided in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 and the following related sections. The referee (or the presiding referee of the panel)
will be an active attorney or a retired judge. The award that results from the decision of the referee(s) will be entered as a judgment in the court that appointed the referee, in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure
Sections 644 and 645. 
  
 7.4 No Waiver. The filing of a
court action is not intended to constitute a waiver of the right of Borrower or Bank, including the suing party, thereafter to require submittal of the Claim to arbitration. 
  
 7.5 Waiver of Jury Trial. By agreeing to binding arbitration, the parties irrevocably and voluntarily waive any right
they may have to a trial by jury in respect of any Claim. Furthermore, without intending in any way to limit this agreement to arbitrate, to the extent any Claim is not arbitrated, the parties irrevocably and voluntarily waive any right they may
have to a trial by jury in respect of such Claim. This provision is a material inducement for the parties entering into the Loan Documents. 
  
 8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
  
 8.1 Further Assurances; Authorization to File Documents. At any time, and from time to time, upon request by Bank, Borrower will, at
Borrower’s expense, (a) correct any defect, error or omission which may be discovered in the form or content of any of the Loan Documents, and (b) make, execute, deliver and record, or cause to be made, executed, delivered and recorded, any and
all further instruments, certificates and other documents as may, in the opinion of Bank, be necessary or desirable in order to complete, perfect or continue and preserve the lien of the Deed of Trust. Upon any failure by Borrower to do so, Bank may
make, execute and record any and all such instruments, certificates and other documents for and in the name of Borrower, all at the sole expense of Borrower, and Borrower hereby appoints Bank the agent and attorney-in-fact of Borrower to do so, this
appointment being coupled with an interest and being irrevocable. Without limitation of the foregoing, Borrower irrevocably authorizes Bank at any time and from time to time to file any initial financing statements, amendments thereto and
continuation statements deemed necessary or desirable by Borrower to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests granted in the Deed of Trust, and Borrower ratifies any such filings made by Bank prior to the
date hereof. 
  
 8.2 No Warranty by Bank. By accepting or
approving anything required to be observed, performed or fulfilled by Borrower or to be given to Bank pursuant to this Agreement, including any certificate, survey, receipt, appraisal or insurance policy, Bank shall not be deemed to have warranted
or represented the sufficiency, 

  

 RESU Standing Loan Agreement with Swaps 

					
	 	 	-10-	 	SF-165261 (11/ 00)

 
legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision or condition thereof and any such acceptance or approval thereof shall not be
or constitute any warranty or representation with respect thereto by Bank. 
  
 8.3 Standard of Conduct of Bank. Whenever this Agreement or any other Loan Document requires an approval, consent, designation, determination, selection or judgment by Bank, such approval, consent, designation,
determination, selection or judgment and any conditions imposed thereby shall be reasonable and shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and, in exercising any right or remedy under any Loan Document, Bank shall at all times act reasonably and
in good faith. 
  
 8.4 No Partnership. Nothing contained in
this Agreement shall be construed in a manner to create any relationship between Borrower and Bank other than the relationship of borrower and lender and Borrower and Bank shall not be considered partners or co-venturers for any purpose on account
of this Agreement. 
  
 8.5 Severability. In the event any
one or more of the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part or in any other respect, or in the event any one or more of the provisions
of any of the Loan Documents operates or would prospectively operate to invalidate this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, then and in either of those events, at the option of Bank, such provision or provisions only shall be deemed null
and void and shall not affect the validity of the remaining Obligations, and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain operative and in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.

  
 8.6 Notices. All notices required or which any party
desires to give hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally
recognized overnight courier service or by certified United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom directed at the applicable address set forth below (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party
whose address is to be changed) or by facsimile. Any notice shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner
provided herein, or, in the case of facsimile, upon receipt; provided that service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of
change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document or to require giving of
notice or demand to or upon any Person in any situation or for any reason. The addresses and fax numbers of the parties are set forth on the signature page of this Agreement. 
  
 8.7 Permitted Successors and Assigns; Disclosure of Information. 
  
 (a) Each and every one of the covenants, terms, provisions and conditions of
this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall apply to, bind and inure to the benefit of Borrower, its successors and those assigns of Borrower consented to in writing by Bank, and shall apply to, bind and inure to the benefit of Bank and the
endorsees, transferees, successors and assigns of Bank, and all Persons claiming under or through any of them. 
  
 (b) Borrower agrees not to transfer, assign, pledge or hypothecate any right or interest in any payment or advance due pursuant to this Agreement, or any
of the other benefits of this Agreement, without the prior written consent of Bank, which consent may be withheld by Bank in its sole and absolute discretion. Any such transfer, assignment, pledge or hypothecation made or attempted by Borrower
without the prior written consent of Bank shall be void and of no effect. No consent by Bank to an assignment shall be deemed to be a waiver of the requirement of prior written consent by Bank with respect to each and every further assignment and as
a condition precedent to the effectiveness of such assignment. 
  
 (c) Bank may sell or offer to sell the Loan or interests therein to one or more assignees or participants. Borrower shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all instruments reasonably requested by Bank in connection therewith, and to
the extent, if any, specified in any such assignment or participation, such assignee(s) or participant(s) shall have the same rights and benefits with respect to the Loan Documents as such Person(s) would have if such Person(s) were Bank hereunder.
Subject to Section 8.15, hereof, Bank may disseminate any information it now has or hereafter obtains pertaining to the Loan, including any security for the Loan, any credit or other information on the Property (including environmental reports and
assessments), Borrower, any of Borrower’s principals or any Guarantor, to any actual or prospective assignee or participant, to Bank’s affiliates, including Banc of America Securities LLC, or to any regulatory body having jurisdiction over
Bank.

waived, modified, discharged or terminated except by instrument in writing executed by the party or parties against whom enforcement of the change, waiver, modification, discharge or termination is asserted. None of the terms or provisions of this
Agreement shall be deemed to have been abrogated or waived by reason of any failure or failures to enforce the same.

 by each party to the other, then, on such date, each party’s obligation to make payment of any such amount will be automatically satisfied and discharged and, if the
aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by one party exceeds the aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by the other party, replaced by an obligation upon the party by which the larger aggregate amount would have
been payable to pay to the other party the excess of the larger aggregate amount over the smaller aggregate amount. 
  
 The parties may elect in respect of two or more Transactions that a net amount and payment obligation will be determined in respect of all amounts payable
on the same date in the same currency in respect of those Transactions, regardless of whether such amounts are payable in respect of the same Transaction. The election may be made in the Schedule or any Confirmation by specifying that “Multiple
Transaction Payment Netting” applies to the Transactions identified as being subject to the election (in which case clause (ii) above will not apply to such Transactions). If Multiple Transaction Payment Netting is applicable to Transactions,
it will apply to those Transactions with effect from the starting date specified in the Schedule or such Confirmation, or, if a starting date is not specified in the Schedule or such Confirmation, the starting date otherwise agreed by the parties in
writing. This election may be made separately for different groups of Transactions and will apply separately to each pairing of Offices through which the parties make and receive payments or deliveries. 
  
 (c) Deduction or Withholding for Tax.

  
 (i) Gross-Up. All payments under this Agreement
will be made without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax unless such deduction or withholding is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, then in effect. If a
party is so required to deduct or withhold, then that party (“X”) will:— 
  
 (1) promptly notify the other party (“Y”) of such requirement; 
  
 (2) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be deducted or withheld (including the full amount required to be deducted or withheld
from any additional amount paid by X to Y under this Section 2(d)) promptly upon the earlier of determining that such deduction or withholding is required or receiving notice that such amount has been assessed against Y; 
  
 (3) promptly forward to Y an official receipt (or a certified copy), or
other documentation reasonably acceptable to Y, evidencing such payment to such authorities; and 
  

					
	 	 	-17-	 	ISDA® 2002

 (4) if such Tax is an Indemnifiable Tax, pay to Y, in addition to the payment to which Y is otherwise
entitled under this Agreement, such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by Y (free and clear of Indemnifiable Taxes, whether assessed against X or Y) will equal the full amount Y would have received had
no such deduction or withholding been required. However, X will not be required to pay any additional amount to Y to the extent that it would not be required to be paid but for:— 
  
 (A) the failure by Y to comply with or perform any agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d); or

  
 (B) the failure of a representation made by Y pursuant to
Section 3(f) to be accurate and true unless such failure would not have occurred but for (I) any action taken by a taxing authority, or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, after a Transaction is entered into (regardless of whether such
action is taken or brought with respect to a party to this Agreement) or (II) a Change in Tax Law. 
  
 (ii) Liability. If:— 
  
 (1) X is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, to make any deduction or withholding
in respect of which X would not be required to pay an additional amount to Y under Section 2(d)(i)(4); 
  
 (2) X does not so deduct or withhold; and 
  
 (3) a liability resulting from such Tax is assessed directly against X, 
  
 then, except to the extent Y has satisfied or then satisfies the liability resulting from such Tax, Y will promptly pay to X
the amount of such liability (including any related liability for interest, but including any related liability for penalties only if Y has failed to comply with or perform any agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d)). 

 
 3. Representations 
  
 Each party makes the representations contained in Sections 3(a), 3(b), 3(c), 3(d), 3(e) and 3(f) and, if specified in the
Schedule as applying, 3(g) to the other party (which representations will be deemed to be repeated by each party on each date on which a Transaction is entered into and, in the case of the representations in Section 3(f), at all times until the
termination of this Agreement). If any “Additional Representation” is specified in the Schedule or any Confirmation as applying, the party or parties specified for such Additional Representation will make and, if applicable, be deemed to
repeat such Additional Representation at the time or times specified for such Additional Representation.

under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it is a party. 
  
 (c) Absence of Litigation. There is not pending or, to its knowledge, threatened against it, any of its Credit Support Providers or any of its applicable Specified Entities any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity or

 Each
party agrees with the other that, so long as either party has or may have any obligation under this Agreement or under any Credit Support Document to which it is a party:— 
  
 (a) Furnish Specified Information. It will deliver to the other party or, in certain cases

 (iii) upon reasonable demand by such other party, any form or document that may be required or reasonably
requested in writing in order to allow such other party or its Credit Support Provider to make a payment under this Agreement or any applicable Credit Support Document without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax or with such
deduction or withholding at a reduced rate (so long as the completion, execution or submission of such form or document would not materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of the party in receipt of such demand), with any such form or
document to be accurate and completed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to such other party and to be executed and to be delivered with any reasonably required certification, 
  
 in each case by the date specified in the Schedule or such Confirmation or, if none is specified, as soon as reasonably
practicable. 
  
 (b) Maintain Authorisations. It will use all
reasonable efforts to maintain in full force and effect all consents of any governmental or other authority that are required to be obtained by it with respect to this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it is a party and will use all
reasonable efforts to obtain any that may become necessary in the future. 
  
 (c)
Comply With Laws. It will comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and orders to which it may be subject if failure so to comply would materially impair its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any
Credit Support Document to which it is a party. 
  
 (d) Tax
Agreement. It will give notice of any failure of a representation made by it under Section 3(f) to be accurate and true promptly upon learning of such failure. 
  
 (e) Payment of Stamp Tax. Subject to Section 11, it will pay any Stamp Tax levied or imposed upon it or in respect of its
execution or performance of this Agreement by a jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, organised, managed and controlled or considered to have its seat, or where an Office through which it is acting for the purpose of this Agreement is located
(“Stamp Tax Jurisdiction”), and will indemnify the other party against any Stamp Tax levied or imposed upon the other party or in respect of the other party’s execution or performance of this Agreement by any such Stamp Tax
Jurisdiction which is not also a Stamp Tax Jurisdiction with respect to the other party. 
  
 5. Events of Default and Termination Events 
  
 (a) Events of Default. The occurrence at any time with respect to a party or, if applicable, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any Specified Entity of such party of any of the following events constitutes (subject
to Sections 5(c) and 6(e)(iv)) an event of default (an “Event of Default”) with respect to such party:— 
  
 (i) Failure to Pay or Deliver. Failure by the party to make, when due, any payment under this Agreement or delivery under Section 2(a)(i) or
9(h)(i)(2) or (4) required to be made by it if such failure is not remedied on or before the first Local Business Day in the case of any such payment or the first Local Delivery Day in the case of any such delivery after, in each case, notice of
such failure is given to the party; 
  
 (ii) Breach of
Agreement; Repudiation of Agreement. 
  
 (1) Failure by
the party to comply with or perform any agreement or obligation (other than an obligation to make any payment under this Agreement or delivery under Section 2(a)(i) or 9(h)(i)(2) or (4) or to give notice of a Termination Event or any agreement or
obligation under Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d)) to be complied with or performed by the party in accordance with this Agreement if such failure is not remedied within 30 days after notice of such failure is given to the party; or 
  
 (2) the party disaffirms, disclaims, repudiates or rejects, in whole or in
part, or challenges the validity of, this Master Agreement, any Confirmation executed and delivered by that party or any Transaction evidenced by such a Confirmation (or such action is taken by any person or entity appointed or empowered to operate
it or act on its behalf); 
  

					
	 	 	-20-	 	ISDA® 2002

 (iii) Credit Support Default. 
  
 (1) Failure by the party or any Credit Support Provider of such party to
comply with or perform any agreement or obligation to be complied with or performed by it in accordance with any Credit Support Document if such failure is continuing after any applicable grace period has elapsed; 
  
 (2) the expiration or termination of such Credit Support Document or the
failing or ceasing of such Credit Support Document, or any security interest granted by such party or such Credit Support Provider to the other party pursuant to any such Credit Support Document, to be in full force and effect for the purpose of
this Agreement (in each case other than in accordance with its terms) prior to the satisfaction of all obligations of such party under each Transaction to which such Credit Support Document relates without the written consent of the other party; or

  
 (3) the party or such Credit Support Provider disaffirms,
disclaims, repudiates or rejects, in whole or in part, or challenges the validity of, such Credit Support Document (or such action is taken by any person or entity appointed or empowered to operate it or act on its behalf); 
  
 (iv) Misrepresentation. A representation (other than a
representation under Section 3(e) or 3(f)) made or repeated or deemed to have been made or repeated by the party or any Credit Support Provider of such party in this Agreement or any Credit Support Document proves to have been incorrect or
misleading in any material respect when made or repeated or deemed to have been made or repeated; 
  
 (v) Default Under Specified Transaction. The party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such
party:— 
  
 (1) defaults (other than by failing to make a
delivery) under a Specified Transaction or any credit support arrangement relating to a Specified Transaction and, after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period, such default results in a liquidation of, an acceleration of
obligations under, or an early termination of, that Specified Transaction; 
  
 (2) defaults, after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period, in making any payment due on the last payment or exchange date of, or any payment on early termination of, a Specified
Transaction (or, if there is no applicable notice requirement or grace period, such default continues for at least one Local Business Day); 
  
 (3) defaults in making any delivery due under (including any delivery due on the last delivery or exchange date of) a Specified Transaction or any credit
support arrangement relating to a Specified Transaction and, after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period, such default results in a liquidation of, an acceleration of obligations under, or an early termination of, all
transactions outstanding under the documentation applicable to that Specified Transaction; or 
  
 (4) disaffirms, disclaims, repudiates or rejects, in whole or in part, or challenges the validity of, a Specified Transaction or any credit support arrangement relating to a Specified Transaction that is, in either
case, confirmed or evidenced by a document or other confirming evidence executed and delivered by that party, Credit Support Provider or Specified Entity (or such action is taken by any person or entity appointed or empowered to operate it or act on
its behalf); 
  

					
	 	 	-21-	 	ISDA® 2002

to the party, the occurrence or existence of:— 
  
 (1) a
default, event of default or other similar condition or event (however described) in respect of such party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party under one or more agreements or instruments
relating to Specified Indebtedness of any of them (individually or collectively) where the aggregate principal amount of such agreements or instruments, either alone or together with the amount, if any, referred to in clause (2) below, is not less
than the applicable Threshold Amount (as specified in the Schedule) which has resulted in such Specified Indebtedness becoming, or becoming capable at such time of being declared, due and payable under such agreements or instruments before it would
otherwise have been due and payable; or 
  
 (2) a default by such
party, such Credit Support Provider or such Specified Entity (individually or collectively) in making one or more payments under such agreements or instruments on the due date for payment (after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or
grace period) in an aggregate amount, either alone or together with the amount, if any, referred to in clause (1) above, of not less than the applicable Threshold Amount; 
  
 (vii) Bankruptcy. The party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of
such party:— 
  
 (1) is dissolved (other than pursuant to a
consolidation, amalgamation or merger); (2) becomes insolvent or is unable to pay its debts or fails or admits in writing its inability generally to pay its debts as they become due; (3) makes a general assignment, arrangement or composition with or
for the benefit of its creditors; (4)(A) institutes or has instituted against it, by a regulator, supervisor or any similar official with primary insolvency, rehabilitative or regulatory jurisdiction over it in the jurisdiction of its incorporation
or organisation or the jurisdiction of its head or home office, a proceeding seeking a judgment of insolvency or bankruptcy or any other relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other similar law affecting creditors’ rights, or a
petition is presented for its winding-up or liquidation by it or such regulator, supervisor or similar official, or (B) has instituted against it a proceeding seeking a judgment of insolvency or bankruptcy or any other relief under any bankruptcy or
insolvency law or other similar law affecting creditors’ rights, or a petition is presented for its winding-up or liquidation, and such proceeding or petition is instituted or presented by a person or entity not described in clause (A) above

of the institution or presentation thereof; (5) has a resolution passed for its winding-up, official management or liquidation (other than pursuant to a consolidation, amalgamation or merger); (6) seeks or becomes subject to the appointment of an
administrator, provisional liquidator, conservator, receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or substantially all its assets; (7) has a secured party take possession of all or substantially all its assets or has a

	 	 	-22-	 	ISDA® 2002

 (viii) Merger Without Assumption. The party or any Credit Support Provider of such party
consolidates or amalgamates with, or merges with or into, or transfers all or substantially all its assets to, or reorganises, reincorporates or reconstitutes into or as, another entity and, at the time of such consolidation, amalgamation, merger,
transfer, reorganisation, reincorporation or reconstitution:— 
  
 (1) the resulting, surviving or transferee entity fails to assume all the obligations of such party or such Credit Support Provider under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it or its predecessor was a party; or

  
 (2) the benefits of any Credit Support Document fail to
extend (without the consent of the other party) to the performance by such resulting, surviving or transferee entity of its obligations under this Agreement. 
  
 (b) Termination Events. The occurrence at any time with respect to a party or, if applicable, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any Specified
Entity of such party of any event specified below constitutes (subject to Section 5(c)) an Illegality if the event is specified in clause (i) below, a Force Majeure Event if the event is specified in clause (ii) below, a Tax Event if the event is
specified in clause (iii) below, a Tax Event Upon Merger if the event is specified in clause (iv) below, and, if specified to be applicable, a Credit Event Upon Merger if the event is specified pursuant to clause (v) below or an Additional
Termination Event if the event is specified pursuant to clause (vi) below:— 
  
 (i) Illegality. After giving effect to any applicable provision, disruption fallback or remedy specified in, or pursuant to, the relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement, due to an event or
circumstance (other than any action taken by a party or, if applicable, any Credit Support Provider of such party) occurring after a Transaction is entered into, it becomes unlawful under any applicable law (including without limitation the laws of
any country in which payment, delivery or compliance is required by either party or any Credit Support Provider, as the case may be), on any day, or it would be unlawful if the relevant payment, delivery or compliance were required on that day (in
each case, other than as a result of a breach by the party of Section 4(b)):— 
  
 (1) for the Office through which such party (which will be the Affected Party) makes and receives payments or deliveries with respect to such Transaction to perform any absolute or contingent obligation to make a
payment or delivery in respect of such Transaction, to receive a payment or delivery in respect of such Transaction or to comply with any other material provision of this Agreement relating to such Transaction; or 
  
 (2) for such party or any Credit Support Provider of such party (which will
be the Affected Party) to perform any absolute or contingent obligation to make a payment or delivery which such party or Credit Support Provider has under any Credit Support Document relating to such Transaction, to receive a payment or delivery
under such Credit Support Document or to comply with any other material provision of such Credit Support Document; 
  
 (ii) Force Majeure Event. After giving effect to any applicable provision, disruption fallback or remedy specified in, or pursuant to, the
relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement, by reason of force majeure or act of state occurring after a Transaction is entered into, on any day:— 
  
 (1) the Office through which such party (which will be the Affected Party) makes and receives payments or deliveries with
respect to such Transaction is prevented from performing any absolute or contingent obligation to make a payment or delivery in respect of such Transaction, from receiving a payment or delivery in respect of such Transaction or from complying with
any other material provision of this Agreement relating to such Transaction (or would be so prevented if such payment, delivery or compliance were required on that day), or it becomes impossible or 
  

					
	 	 	-23-	 	ISDA® 2002

 impracticable for such Office so to perform, receive or comply (or it would be impossible or
impracticable for such Office so to perform, receive or comply if such payment, delivery or compliance were required on that day); or 
  
 (2) such party or any Credit Support Provider of such party (which will be the Affected Party) is prevented from performing any absolute or contingent
obligation to make a payment or delivery which such party or Credit Support Provider has under any Credit Support Document relating to such Transaction, from receiving a payment or delivery under such Credit Support Document or from complying with
any other material provision of such Credit Support Document (or would be so prevented if such payment, delivery or compliance were required on that day), or it becomes impossible or impracticable for such party or Credit Support Provider so to
perform, receive or comply (or it would be impossible or impracticable for such party or Credit Support Provider so to perform, receive or comply if such payment, delivery or compliance were required on that day), 
  
 so long as the force majeure or act of state is beyond the
control of such Office, such party or such Credit Support Provider, as appropriate, and such Office, party or Credit Support Provider could not, after using all reasonable efforts (which will not require such party or Credit Support Provider to
incur a loss, other than immaterial, incidental expenses), overcome such prevention, impossibility or impracticability; 
  
 (iii) Tax Event. Due to (1) any action taken by a taxing authority, or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, after a Transaction is
entered into (regardless of whether such action is taken or brought with respect to a party to this Agreement) or (2) a Change in Tax Law, the party (which will be the Affected Party) will, or there is a substantial likelihood that it will, on the
next succeeding Scheduled Settlement Date (A) be required to pay to the other party an additional amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (except in respect of interest under Section 9(h)) or (B) receive a payment from
which an amount is required to be deducted or withheld for or on account of a Tax (except in respect of interest under Section 9(h)) and no additional amount is required to be paid in respect of such Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (other than by
reason of Section 2(d)(i)(4)(A) or (B)); 
  
 (iv) Tax Event
Upon Merger. The party (the “Burdened Party”) on the next succeeding Scheduled Settlement Date will either (1) be required to pay an additional amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (except in respect
of interest under Section 9(h)) or (2) receive a payment from which an amount has been deducted or withheld for or on account of any Tax in respect of which the other party is not required to pay an additional amount (other than by reason of Section
2(d)(i)(4)(A) or (B)), in either case as a result of a party consolidating or amalgamating with, or merging with or into, or transferring all or substantially all its assets (or any substantial part of the assets comprising the business conducted by
it as of the date of this Master Agreement) to, or reorganising, reincorporating or reconstituting into or as, another entity (which will be the Affected Party) where such action does not constitute a Merger Without Assumption; 
  
 (v) Credit Event Upon Merger. If “Credit Event Upon
Merger” is specified in the Schedule as applying to the party, a Designated Event (as defined below) occurs with respect to such party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party (in each case,
“X”) and such Designated Event does not constitute a Merger Without Assumption, and the creditworthiness of X or, if applicable, the successor, surviving or transferee entity of X, after taking into account any applicable Credit Support
Document, is materially weaker immediately after the occurrence of such Designated Event than that of X immediately prior to the occurrence of such Designated Event (and, in any such event, such party or its successor, surviving or transferee
entity, as appropriate, will be the Affected Party). A “Designated Event” with respect to X means that:— 
  
 (1) X consolidates or amalgamates with, or merges with or into, or transfers all or substantially all its assets (or any substantial part of the assets
comprising the business conducted by X as of the date of this Master Agreement) to, or reorganises, reincorporates or reconstitutes into or as, another entity; 
  

					
	 	 	-24-	 	ISDA® 2002

 (2) any person, related group of persons or entity acquires directly or indirectly the beneficial
ownership of (A) equity securities having the power to elect a majority of the board of directors (or its equivalent) of X or (B) any other ownership interest enabling it to exercise control of X; or 
  
 (3) X effects any substantial change in its capital structure by means of
the issuance, incurrence or guarantee of debt or the issuance of (A) preferred stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for debt or preferred stock or (B) in the case of entities other than corporations, any other form of ownership
interest; or 
  
 (vi) Additional Termination Event.
If any “Additional Termination Event” is specified in the Schedule or any Confirmation as applying, the occurrence of such event (and, in such event, the Affected Party or Affected Parties will be as specified for such Additional
Termination Event in the Schedule or such Confirmation). 
  
 (c) Hierarchy of
Events. 
  
 (i) An event or circumstance that constitutes or
gives rise to an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event will not, for so long as that is the case, also constitute or give rise to an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(i), 5(a)(ii)(1) or 5(a)(iii)(1) insofar as such event or circumstance relates to
the failure to make any payment or delivery or a failure to comply with any other material provision of this Agreement or a Credit Support Document, as the case may be. 
  
 (ii) Except in circumstances contemplated by clause (i) above, if an event or circumstance which would otherwise constitute
or give rise to an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event also constitutes an Event of Default or any other Termination Event, it will be treated as an Event of Default or such other Termination Event, as the case may be, and will not constitute or
give rise to an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event. 
  
 (iii) If
an event or circumstance which would otherwise constitute or give rise to a Force Majeure Event also constitutes an Illegality, it will be treated as an Illegality, except as described in clause (ii) above, and not a Force Majeure Event. 

 
 (d) Deferral of Payments and Deliveries During Waiting Period. If an
Illegality or a Force Majeure Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to a Transaction, each payment or delivery which would otherwise be required to be made under that Transaction will be deferred to, and will not be due until:—

  
 (i) the first Local Business Day or, in the case of a
delivery, the first Local Delivery Day (or the first day that would have been a Local Business Day or Local Delivery Day, as appropriate, but for the occurrence of the event or circumstance constituting or giving rise to that Illegality or Force
Majeure Event) following the end of any applicable Waiting Period in respect of that Illegality or Force Majeure Event, as the case may be; or 
  
 (ii) if earlier, the date on which the event or circumstance constituting or giving rise to that Illegality or Force Majeure Event ceases to exist or, if
such date is not a Local Business Day or, in the case of a delivery, a Local Delivery Day, the first following day that is a Local Business Day or Local Delivery Day, as appropriate. 
  
 (e) Inability of Head or Home Office to Perform Obligations of Branch. If (i) an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event occurs
under Section 5(b)(i)(1) or 5(b)(ii)(1) and the relevant Office is not the Affected Party’s head or home office, (ii) Section 10(a) applies, (iii) the other party seeks performance of the relevant obligation or 
  

					
	 	 	-25-	 	ISDA® 2002

 compliance with the relevant provision by the Affected Party’s head or home office and (iv) the Affected
Party’s head or home office fails so to perform or comply due to the occurrence of an event or circumstance which would, if that head or home office were the Office through which the Affected Party makes and receives payments and deliveries
with respect to the relevant Transaction, constitute or give rise to an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event, and such failure would otherwise constitute an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(i)or 5(a)(iii)(1) with respect to such party, then, for
so long as the relevant event or circumstance continues to exist with respect to both the Office referred to in Section 5(b)(i)(1) or 5(b)(ii)(1), as the case may be, and the Affected Party’s head or home office, such failure will not
constitute an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(i) or 5(a)(iii)(1). 
  
 6.
Early Termination; Close-Out Netting 
  
 (a) Right to Terminate
Following Event of Default. If at any time an Event of Default with respect to a party (the “Defaulting Party”) has occurred and is then continuing, the other party (the “Non-defaulting Party”) may, by not more than 20
days notice to the Defaulting Party specifying the relevant Event of Default, designate a day not earlier than the day such notice is effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of all outstanding Transactions. If, however, “Automatic
Early Termination” is specified in the Schedule as applying to a party, then an Early Termination Date in respect of all outstanding Transactions will occur immediately upon the occurrence with respect to such party of an Event of Default
specified in Section 5(a)(vii)(1), (3), (5), (6) or, to the extent analogous thereto, (8), and as of the time immediately preceding the institution of the relevant proceeding or the presentation of the relevant petition upon the occurrence with
respect to such party of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a)(vii)(4) or, to the extent analogous thereto, (8). 
  
 (b) Right to Terminate Following Termination Event. 
  
 (i) Notice. If a Termination Event other than a Force Majeure Event occurs, an Affected Party will, promptly
upon becoming aware of it, notify the other party, specifying the nature of that Termination Event and each Affected Transaction, and will also give the other party such other information about that Termination Event as the other party may
reasonably require. If a Force Majeure Event occurs, each party will, promptly upon becoming aware of it, use all reasonable efforts to notify the other party, specifying the nature of that Force Majeure Event, and will also give the other party
such other information about that Force Majeure Event as the other party may reasonably require. 
  
 (ii) Transfer to Avoid Termination Event. If a Tax Event occurs and there is only one Affected Party, or if a Tax Event Upon Merger occurs
and the Burdened Party is the Affected Party, the Affected Party will, as a condition to its right to designate an Early Termination Date under Section 6(b)(iv), use all reasonable efforts (which will not require such party to incur a loss, other
than immaterial, incidental expenses) to transfer within 20 days after it gives notice under Section 6(b)(i) all its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of the Affected Transactions to another of its Offices or Affiliates so that
such Termination Event ceases to exist. 
  
 If
the Affected Party is not able to make such a transfer it will give notice to the other party to that effect within such 20 day period, whereupon the other party may effect such a transfer within 30 days after the notice is given under Section
6(b)(i). 
  
 Any such transfer by a party under
this Section 6(b)(ii) will be subject to and conditional upon the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be withheld if such other party’s policies in effect at such time would permit it to enter into transactions with
the transferee on the terms proposed. 
  
 (iii) Two
Affected Parties. If a Tax Event occurs and there are two Affected Parties, each party will use all reasonable efforts to reach agreement within 30 days after notice of such occurrence is given under Section 6(b)(i) to avoid that Termination
Event.

 (iv) Right to Terminate. 
  
 (1) If:— 
  
 (A) a transfer under Section 6(b)(ii) or an agreement under Section 6(b)(iii), as the case may be, has not been effected with respect to all Affected
Transactions within 30 days after an Affected Party gives notice under Section 6(b)(i); or 
  
 (B) a Credit Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event occurs, or a Tax Event Upon Merger occurs and the Burdened Party is not the Affected Party, 
  
 the Burdened Party in the case of a Tax Event Upon Merger,
any Affected Party in the case of a Tax Event or an Additional Termination Event if there are two Affected Parties, or the Non-affected Party in the case of a Credit Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event if there is only one Affected
Party may, if the relevant Termination Event is then continuing, by not more than 20 days notice to the other party, designate a day not earlier than the day such notice is effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of all Affected
Transactions. 
  
 (2) If at any time an Illegality or a Force
Majeure Event has occurred and is then continuing and any applicable Waiting Period has expired:— 
  
 (A) Subject to clause (B) below, either party may, by not more than 20 days notice to the other party, designate (I) a day not earlier than the day on
which such notice becomes effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of all Affected Transactions or (II) by specifying in that notice the Affected Transactions in respect of which it is designating the relevant day as an Early Termination
Date, a day not earlier than two Local Business Days following the day on which such notice becomes effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of less than all Affected Transactions. Upon receipt of a notice designating an Early Termination
Date in respect of less than all Affected Transactions, the other party may, by notice to the designating party, if such notice is effective on or before the day so designated, designate that same day as an Early Termination Date in respect of any
or all other Affected Transactions. 
  
 (B) An Affected Party
(if the Illegality or Force Majeure Event relates to performance by such party or any Credit Support Provider of such party of an obligation to make any payment or delivery under, or to compliance with any other material provision of, the relevant
Credit Support Document) will only have the right to designate an Early Termination Date under Section 6(b)(iv)(2)(A) as a result of an Illegality under Section 5(b)(i)(2) or a Force Majeure Event under Section 5(b)(ii)(2) following the prior
designation by the other party of an Early Termination Date, pursuant to Section 6(b)(iv)(2)(A), in respect of less than all Affected Transactions. 
  
 (c) Effect of Designation. 
  
 (i) If notice designating an Early Termination Date is given under Section 6(a) or 6(b), the Early Termination Date will occur on the date so designated,
whether or not the relevant Event of Default or Termination Event is then continuing. 
  
 (ii) Upon the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date, no further payments or deliveries under Section 2(a)(i) or 9(h)(i) in respect of the Terminated Transactions will be required to be made,
but without prejudice to the other provisions of this Agreement. The amount, if any, payable in respect of an Early Termination Date will be determined pursuant to Sections 6(e) and 9(h)(ii). 
  

					
	 	 	-27-	 	ISDA® 2002

 (d) Calculations; Payment Date. 
  
 (i) Statement. On or as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of an Early Termination Date,
each party will make the calculations on its part, if any, contemplated by Section 6(e) and will provide to the other party a statement (1) showing, in reasonable detail, such calculations (including any quotations, market data or information from
internal sources used in making such calculations), (2) specifying (except where there are two Affected Parties) any Early Termination Amount payable and (3) giving details of the relevant account to which any amount payable to it is to be paid. In
the absence of written confirmation from the source of a quotation or market data obtained in determining a Close-out Amount, the records of the party obtaining such quotation or market data will be conclusive evidence of the existence and accuracy
of such quotation or market data. 
  
 (ii) Payment Date.
An Early Termination Amount due in respect of any Early Termination Date will, together with any amount of interest payable pursuant to Section 9(h)(ii)(2), be payable (1) on the day on which notice of the amount payable is effective in the
case of an Early Termination Date which is designated or occurs as a result of an Event of Default and (2) on the day which is two Local Business Days after the day on which notice of the amount payable is effective (or, if there are two Affected
Parties, after the day on which the statement provided pursuant to clause (i) above by the second party to provide such a statement is effective) in the case of an Early Termination Date which is designated as a result of a Termination Event.

  
 (e) Payments on Early Termination. If an Early Termination Date
occurs, the amount, if any, payable in respect of that Early Termination Date (the “Early Termination Amount”) will be determined pursuant to this Section 6(e) and will be subject to Section 6(f). 
  
 (i) Events of Default. If the Early Termination Date results
from an Event of Default, the Early Termination Amount will be an amount equal to (1) the sum of (A) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Close-out Amount or Close-out Amounts (whether positive or negative) determined by the Non-defaulting
Party for each Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions, as the case may be, and (B) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Non-defaulting Party less (2) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the
Unpaid Amounts owing to the Defaulting Party. If the Early Termination Amount is a positive number, the Defaulting Party will pay it to the Non-defaulting Party; if it is a negative number, the Non-defaulting Party will pay the absolute value of the
Early Termination Amount to the Defaulting Party. 
  
 (ii)
Termination Events. If the Early Termination Date results from a Termination Event:— 
  
 (1) One Affected Party. Subject to clause (3) below, if there is one Affected Party, the Early Termination Amount will be determined in accordance
with Section 6(e)(i), except that references to the Defaulting Party and to the Non-defaulting Party will be deemed to be references to the Affected Party and to the Non-affected Party, respectively. 
  
 (2) Two Affected Parties. Subject to clause (3) below, if there are
two Affected Parties, each party will determine an amount equal to the Termination Currency Equivalent of the sum of the Close-out Amount or Close-out Amounts (whether positive or negative) for each Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated
Transactions, as the case may be, and the Early Termination Amount will be an amount equal to (A) the sum of (I) one-half of the difference between the higher amount so determined (by party “X”) and the lower amount so determined (by party
“Y”) and (II) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to X less (B) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to Y. If the Early Termination Amount is a positive number, Y will pay it to X; if
it is a negative number, X will pay the absolute value of the Early Termination Amount to Y. 
  

					
	 	 	-28-	 	ISDA® 2002

 (3) Mid-Market Events. If that Termination Event is an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event, then
the Early Termination Amount will be determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) above, as appropriate, except that, for the purpose of determining a Close-out Amount or Close-out Amounts, the Determining Party will:— 
  
 (A) if obtaining quotations from one or more third parties (or from any of
the Determining Party’s Affiliates), ask each third party or Affiliate (I) not to take account of the current creditworthiness of the Determining Party or any existing Credit Support Document and (II) to provide mid-market quotations; and

  
 (B) in any other case, use mid-market values without regard
to the creditworthiness of the Determining Party. 
  
 (iii)
Adjustment for Bankruptcy. In circumstances where an Early Termination Date occurs because Automatic Early Termination applies in respect of a party, the Early Termination Amount will be subject to such adjustments as are appropriate
and permitted by applicable law to reflect any payments or deliveries made by one party to the other under this Agreement (and retained by such other party) during the period from the relevant Early Termination Date to the date for payment
determined under Section 6(d)(ii). 
  
 (iv) Adjustment for
Illegality or Force Majeure Event. The failure by a party or any Credit Support Provider of such party to pay, when due, any Early Termination Amount will not constitute an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(i) or 5(a)(iii)(1) if such
failure is due to the occurrence of an event or circumstance which would, if it occurred with respect to payment, delivery or compliance related to a Transaction, constitute or give rise to an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event. Such amount will
(1) accrue interest and otherwise be treated as an Unpaid Amount owing to the other party if subsequently an Early Termination Date results from an Event of Default, a Credit Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event in respect of which
all outstanding Transactions are Affected Transactions and (2) otherwise accrue interest in accordance with Section 9(h)(ii)(2). 
  
 (v) Pre-Estimate. The parties agree that an amount recoverable under this Section 6(e) is a reasonable pre-estimate of loss and not a
penalty. Such amount is payable for the loss of bargain and the loss of protection against future risks, and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, neither party will be entitled to recover any additional damages as a consequence of the
termination of the Terminated Transactions. 
  
 (f) Set-Off. Any
Early Termination Amount payable to one party (the “Payee”) by the other party (the “Payer”), in circumstances where there is a Defaulting Party or where there is one Affected Party in the case where either a Credit Event Upon
Merger has occurred or any other Termination Event in respect of which all outstanding Transactions are Affected Transactions has occurred, will, at the option of the Non-defaulting Party or the Non-affected Party, as the case may be (“X”)
(and without prior notice to the Defaulting Party or the Affected Party, as the case may be), be reduced by its set-off against any other amounts (“Other Amounts”) payable by the Payee to the Payer (whether or not arising under this
Agreement, matured or contingent and irrespective of the currency, place of payment or place of booking of the obligation). To the extent that any Other Amounts are so set off, those Other Amounts will be discharged promptly and in all respects. X
will give notice to the other party of any set-off effected under this Section 6(f). 
  
 For this purpose, either the Early Termination Amount or the Other Amounts (or the relevant portion of such amounts) may be converted by X into the currency in which the other is denominated at the rate of exchange at which such party would
be able, in good faith and using commercially reasonable procedures, to purchase the relevant amount of such currency. 
  

					
	 	 	-29-	 	ISDA® 2002

 If an obligation is unascertained, X may in good faith estimate that obligation and set off in respect of the estimate,
subject to the relevant party accounting to the other when the obligation is ascertained. 
  
 Nothing in this Section 6(f) will be effective to create a charge or other security interest. This Section 6(f) will be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, offset, combination of accounts, lien,
right of retention or withholding or similar right or requirement to which any party is at any time otherwise entitled or subject (whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise). 
  
 7. Transfer 
  
 Subject to Section 6(b)(ii) and to the extent permitted by applicable law, neither this Agreement nor any interest or obligation in or under this
Agreement may be transferred (whether by way of security or otherwise) by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, except that:— 
  

(a) a party may make such a transfer of this Agreement pursuant to a consolidation or amalgamation with, or merger with or into, or transfer of all or substantially
all its assets to, another entity (but without prejudice to any other right or remedy under this Agreement); and 
  
 (b) a party may make such a transfer of all or any part of its interest in any Early Termination Amount payable to it by a Defaulting Party, together with any amounts
payable on or with respect to that interest and any other rights associated with that interest pursuant to Sections 8, 9(h) and 11. 
  
 Any purported transfer that is not in compliance with this Section 7 will be void. 
  
 8. Contractual Currency 
  
 (a) Payment in the Contractual Currency. Each payment under this Agreement will be made in the relevant currency specified in this Agreement for that
payment (the “Contractual Currency”). To the extent permitted by applicable law, any obligation to make payments under this Agreement in the Contractual Currency will not be discharged or satisfied by any tender in any currency other than
the Contractual Currency, except to the extent such tender results in the actual receipt by the party to which payment is owed, acting in good faith and using commercially reasonable procedures in converting the currency so tendered into the
Contractual Currency, of the full amount in the Contractual Currency of all amounts payable in respect of this Agreement. If for any reason the amount in the Contractual Currency so received falls short of the amount in the Contractual Currency
payable in respect of this Agreement, the party required to make the payment will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, immediately pay such additional amount in the Contractual Currency as may be necessary to compensate for the shortfall. If
for any reason the amount in the Contractual Currency so received exceeds the amount in the Contractual Currency payable in respect of this Agreement, the party receiving the payment will refund promptly the amount of such excess. 
  
 (b) Judgments. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if any judgment or
order expressed in a currency other than the Contractual Currency is rendered (i) for the payment of any amount owing in respect of this Agreement, (ii) for the payment of any amount relating to any early termination in respect of this Agreement or
(iii) in respect of a judgment or order of another court for the payment of any amount described in clause (i) or (ii) above, the party seeking recovery, after recovery in full of the aggregate amount to which such party is entitled pursuant to the
judgment or order, will be entitled to receive immediately from the other party the amount of any shortfall of the Contractual Currency received by such party as a consequence of sums paid in such other currency and will refund promptly to the other
party any excess of the Contractual Currency received by such party as a consequence of sums paid in such other currency if such shortfall or such excess arises or results from any variation between the rate of exchange at which the Contractual
Currency is converted into the currency of the judgment or order for the purpose of such judgment or order and the rate of exchange at which such party is able, acting in good faith and using commercially reasonable procedures in converting the
currency received into the Contractual Currency, to purchase the Contractual Currency with the amount of the currency of the judgment or order actually received by such party.

 (c) Separate Indemnities. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the indemnities in this Section 8
constitute separate and independent obligations from the other obligations in this Agreement, will be enforceable as separate and independent causes of action, will apply notwithstanding any indulgence granted by the party to which any payment is
owed and will not be affected by judgment being obtained or claim or proof being made for any other sums payable in respect of this Agreement. 
  
 (d) Evidence of Loss. For the purpose of this Section 8, it will be sufficient for a party to demonstrate that it would have suffered a loss had an actual
exchange or purchase been made. 
  
 9. Miscellaneous 
  
 (a) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and
understanding of the parties with respect to its subject matter. Each of the parties acknowledges that in entering into this Agreement it has not relied on any oral or written representation, warranty or other assurance (except as provided for or
referred to in this Agreement) and waives all rights and remedies which might otherwise be available to it in respect thereof, except that nothing in this Agreement will limit or exclude any liability of a party for fraud. 
  
 (b) Amendments. An amendment, modification or waiver in respect of this
Agreement will only be effective if in writing (including a writing evidenced by a facsimile transmission) and executed by each of the parties or confirmed by an exchange of telexes or by an exchange of electronic messages on an electronic messaging
system. 
  
 (c) Survival of Obligations. Without prejudice to
Sections 2(a)(iii) and 6(c)(ii), the obligations of the parties under this Agreement will survive the termination of any Transaction. 
  
 (d) Remedies Cumulative. Except as provided in this Agreement, the rights, powers, remedies and privileges provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights, powers, remedies and privileges provided by law. 
  
 (e)
Counterparts and Confirmations. 
  
 (i) This
Agreement (and each amendment, modification and waiver in respect of it) may be executed and delivered in counterparts (including by facsimile transmission and by electronic messaging system), each of which will be deemed an original. 
  
 (ii) The parties intend that they are legally bound by the terms of each
Transaction from the moment they agree to those terms (whether orally or otherwise). A Confirmation will be entered into as soon as practicable and may be executed and delivered in counterparts (including by facsimile transmission) or be created by
an exchange of telexes, by an exchange of electronic messages on an electronic messaging system or by an exchange of e-mails, which in each case will be sufficient for all purposes to evidence a binding supplement to this Agreement. The parties will
specify therein or through another effective means that any such counterpart, telex, electronic message or e-mail constitutes a Confirmation. 
  
 (f) No Waiver of Rights. A failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege in respect of this Agreement will not be presumed to operate as a
waiver, and a single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege will not be presumed to preclude any subsequent or further exercise, of that right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. 
  
 (g) Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and are not to affect the construction of or to be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement.

 (h) Interest and Compensation. 
  
 (i) Prior to Early Termination. Prior to the occurrence or effective
designation of an Early Termination Date in respect of the relevant Transaction:— 
  
 (1) Interest on Defaulted Payments. If a party defaults in the performance of any payment obligation, it will, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 6(c), pay interest (before as well
as after judgment) on the overdue amount to the other party on demand in the same currency as the overdue amount, for the period from (and including) the original due date for payment to (but excluding) the date of actual payment (and excluding any
period in respect of which interest or compensation in respect of the overdue amount is due pursuant to clause (3)(B) or (C) below), at the Default Rate. 
  
 (2) Compensation for Defaulted Deliveries. If a party defaults in the performance of any obligation required to be settled by
delivery, it will on demand (A) compensate the other party to the extent provided for in the relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement and (B) unless otherwise provided in the relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement, to the
extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 6(c), pay to the other party interest (before as well as after judgment) on an amount equal to the fair market value of that which was required to be delivered in the same currency as that
amount, for the period from (and including) the originally scheduled date for delivery to (but excluding) the date of actual delivery (and excluding any period in respect of which interest or compensation in respect of that amount is due pursuant to
clause (4) below), at the Default Rate. The fair market value of any obligation referred to above will be determined as of the originally scheduled date for delivery, in good faith and using commercially reasonable procedures, by the party that was
entitled to take delivery. 
  
 (3) Interest on Deferred Payments.
If:— 
  
 (A) a party does not pay any amount that, but for
Section 2(a)(iii), would have been payable, it will, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 6(c) and clauses (B) and (C) below, pay interest (before as well as after judgment) on that amount to the other party on demand
(after such amount becomes payable) in the same currency as that amount, for the period from (and including) the date the amount would, but for Section 2(a)(iii), have been payable to (but excluding) the date the amount actually becomes payable, at
the Applicable Deferral Rate; 
  
 (B) a payment is deferred
pursuant to Section 5(d), the party which would otherwise have been required to make that payment will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, subject to Section 6(c) and for so long as no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with
respect to that party has occurred and is continuing, pay interest (before as well as after judgment) on the amount of the deferred payment to the other party on demand (after such amount becomes payable) in the same currency as the deferred
payment, for the period from (and including) the date the amount would, but for Section 5(d), have been payable to (but excluding) the earlier of the date the payment is no longer deferred pursuant to Section 5(d) and the date during the deferral
period upon which an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to that party occurs, at the Applicable Deferral Rate; or 
  
 (C) a party fails to make any payment due to the occurrence of an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event (after giving effect to any deferral period
contemplated by clause (B) above), it will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, subject to Section 6(c) and for so long as the event or circumstance giving rise to that Illegality or Force Majeure Event 
  

					
	 	 	-32-	 	ISDA® 2002

 continues and no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to that party has occurred
and is continuing, pay interest (before as well as after judgment) on the overdue amount to the other party on demand in the same currency as the overdue amount, for the period from (and including) the date the party fails to make the payment due to
the occurrence of the relevant Illegality or Force Majeure Event (or, if later, the date the payment is no longer deferred pursuant to Section 5(d)) to (but excluding) the earlier of the date the event or circumstance giving rise to that Illegality
or Force Majeure Event ceases to exist and the date during the period upon which an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to that party occurs (and excluding any period in respect of which interest or compensation in respect of
the overdue amount is due pursuant to clause (B) above), at the Applicable Deferral Rate. 
  
 (4) Compensation for Deferred Deliveries. If:— 
  
 (A) a party does not perform any obligation that, but for Section 2(a)(iii), would have been required to be settled by delivery; 
  
 (B) a delivery is deferred pursuant to Section 5(d); or 
  
 (C) a party fails to make a delivery due to the occurrence of an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event at a time when any
applicable Waiting Period has expired, 
  
 the party required (or
that would otherwise have been required) to make the delivery will, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 6(c), compensate and pay interest to the other party on demand (after, in the case of clauses (A) and (B) above,
such delivery is required) if and to the extent provided for in the relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement. 
  
 (ii) Early Termination. Upon the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date in respect of a Transaction:—

  
 (1) Unpaid Amounts. For the purpose of determining an
Unpaid Amount in respect of the relevant Transaction, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, interest will accrue on the amount of any payment obligation or the amount equal to the fair market value of any obligation required to be settled
by delivery included in such determination in the same currency as that amount, for the period from (and including) the date the relevant obligation was (or would have been but for Section 2(a)(iii) or 5(d)) required to have been performed to (but
excluding) the relevant Early Termination Date, at the Applicable Close-out Rate. 
  
 (2) Interest on Early Termination Amounts. If an Early Termination Amount is due in respect of such Early Termination Date, that amount will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be paid together with
interest (before as well as after judgment) on that amount in the Termination Currency, for the period from (and including) such Early Termination Date to (but excluding) the date the amount is paid, at the Applicable Close-out Rate. 
  
 (iii) Interest Calculation. Any interest pursuant to this
Section 9(h) will be calculated on the basis of daily compounding and the actual number of days elapsed. 
  

					
	 	 	-33-	 	ISDA® 2002

 10. Offices; Multibranch Parties 
  
 (a) If Section 10(a) is specified in the Schedule as applying, each party that enters into a Transaction through an Office other than its
head or home office represents to and agrees with the other party that, notwithstanding the place of booking or its jurisdiction of incorporation or organisation, its obligations are the same in terms of recourse against it as if it had entered into
the Transaction through its head or home office, except that a party will not have recourse to the head or home office of the other party in respect of any payment or delivery deferred pursuant to Section 5(d) for so long as the payment or delivery
is so deferred. This representation and agreement will be deemed to be repeated by each party on each date on which the parties enter into a Transaction. 
  
 (b) If a party is specified as a Multibranch Party in the Schedule, such party may, subject to clause (c) below, enter into a Transaction through, book a Transaction in
and make and receive payments and deliveries with respect to a Transaction through any Office listed in respect of that party in the Schedule (but not any other Office unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing). 
  
 (c) The Office through which a party enters into a Transaction will be the Office specified
for that party in the relevant Confirmation or as otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, and, if an Office for that party is not specified in the Confirmation or otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, its head or home office. Unless the
parties otherwise agree in writing, the Office through which a party enters into a Transaction will also be the Office in which it books the Transaction and the Office through which it makes and receives payments and deliveries with respect to the
Transaction. Subject to Section 6(b)(ii), neither party may change the Office in which it books the Transaction or the Office through which it makes and receives payments or deliveries with respect to a Transaction without the prior written consent
of the other party. 
  
 11. Expenses 
  
 A Defaulting Party will on demand indemnify and hold harmless the other party for and
against all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including legal fees, execution fees and Stamp Tax, incurred by such other party by reason of the enforcement and protection of its rights under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which
the Defaulting Party is a party or by reason of the early termination of any Transaction, including, but not limited to, costs of collection. 
  
 12. Notices 
  
 (a) Effectiveness. Any notice or other communication in respect of this Agreement may be given in any manner described below (except that a notice or other communication under Section 5 or 6 may not be
given by electronic messaging system or e-mail) to the address or number or in accordance with the electronic messaging system or e-mail details provided (see the Schedule) and will be deemed effective as indicated:— 
  
 (i) if in writing and delivered in person or by courier, on the date it is
delivered; 
  
 (ii) if sent by telex, on the date the
recipient’s answerback is received; 
  
 (iii) if sent by
facsimile transmission, on the date it is received by a responsible employee of the recipient in legible form (it being agreed that the burden of proving receipt will be on the sender and will not be met by a transmission report generated by the
sender’s facsimile machine); 
  
 (iv) if sent by certified
or registered mail (airmail, if overseas) or the equivalent (return receipt requested), on the date it is delivered or its delivery is attempted; 
  
 (v) if sent by electronic messaging system, on the date it is received; or 
  

					
	 	 	-34-	 	ISDA® 2002

 (vi) if sent by e-mail, on the date it is delivered, 
  
 unless the date of that delivery (or attempted delivery) or that receipt, as applicable, is
not a Local Business Day or that communication is delivered (or attempted) or received, as applicable, after the close of business on a Local Business Day, in which case that communication will be deemed given and effective on the first following
day that is a Local Business Day. 
  
 (b) Change of Details. Either
party may by notice to the other change the address, telex or facsimile number or electronic messaging system or e-mail details at which notices or other communications are to be given to it. 
  
 13. Governing Law and Jurisdiction 
  
 (a) Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in
accordance with the law specified in the Schedule. 
  
 (b)
Jurisdiction. With respect to any suit, action or proceedings relating to any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (“Proceedings”), each party irrevocably:— 
  
 (i) submits:— 
  
 (1) if this Agreement is expressed to be governed by English law, to (A) the

business for the valuation of similar transactions. 
  
 The Determining Party will
consider, taking into account the standards and procedures described in this definition, quotations pursuant to clause (i) above or relevant market data pursuant to clause (ii) above unless the Determining Party reasonably believes in good faith
that such quotations or relevant market data are not readily available or would produce a result that would not satisfy those standards. When considering information described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, the Determining Party may include

other valuation models that are, at the time of the determination of the Close-out Amount, used by the Determining Party in the regular course of its business in pricing or valuing transactions between the Determining Party and unrelated third
parties that are similar to the Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions; and

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
COST PLUS, INC., a California corporation (“Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order of Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association (together with any and all of its successors and assigns and/or any other holder of
this Note, “Bank”), without offset, in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America, at CA5-704-13-11, 315 Montgomery Street, 13th Floor, San Francisco, California 94104, the principal sum of Twenty Million and No/100 Dollars ($20,000,000.00) (or the unpaid balance of all principal
advanced against this Note, if that amount is less), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding as hereinafter provided. 
  
 Section 1. Payment Schedule and Maturity Date. The principal of this Note shall be due and payable in monthly
installments, each in the amount set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto, commencing on March 1, 2005 and on the first day of each succeeding month thereafter until this Note shall have been fully paid and satisfied; and accrued unpaid
interest on this Note shall be due and payable on March 1, 2005 and on the first day of each succeeding month thereafter until all principal and accrued interest owing on this Note shall have been fully paid and satisfied; provided, that on February
1, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”), the final maturity of this Note, the entire principal balance of this Note then unpaid and all accrued interest then unpaid shall be finally due and payable. 
  
 Section 2. Security; Loan Documents. The security for this Note
includes a Deed of Trust with Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing (as the same may from time to time be amended, restated, modified or supplemented, the “Deed of Trust”) of even date herewith from Borrower to
Bank, conveying and encumbering certain real and personal property more particularly described therein (the “Property”). This Note, the Deed of Trust, the Standing Loan Agreement and Swap Commitment between Borrower and Bank of even
date herewith (as the same may from time to time be amended, restated, modified or supplemented, the “Loan Agreement”) and all other documents now or hereafter securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the loan evidenced
by this Note (the “Loan”), as the same may from time to time be amended, restated, modified or supplemented, are herein sometimes called individually a “Loan Document” and together the “Loan
Documents.” 
  
 Section 3. Interest Rate.

  
 Section 3.1 Interest Rates. The Principal Debt from
day to day outstanding which is not past due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the following (computed as provided in Section 3.4 hereof) as applicable: 
  
 (a) On Base Rate Principal, on any day, the Base Rate; and 
  
 (b) On LIBOR Rate Principal, for the applicable Interest Period, the applicable LIBOR Rate. 
  
 Section 3.2 Interest Rate Elections. 
  
 (a) Subject to the conditions and limitations in this Note, Borrower may by
written notice to Bank in the form specified by Bank (a “Rate Election Notice”): 
  
 (i) Elect, upon the initial advance of funds, that the Principal Debt will be Base Rate Principal, LIBOR Rate Principal or a combination thereof;

  

 -1- 

 (ii) Elect to convert, on a Business Day, all or part of Base Rate Principal into LIBOR Rate Principal;

  
 (iii) Elect to convert, on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, all or part of any LIBOR Rate Principal into Base Rate Principal; or 
  
 (iv) Elect to continue, commencing on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, any LIBOR Rate Principal. 
  
 If, for any reason, an effective election is not made in accordance with the
terms and conditions of this Note for any principal advance or for any LIBOR Rate Principal for which the corresponding Interest Period is expiring, or to convert Base Rate Principal to LIBOR Rate Principal, then the sums in question will be Base
Rate Principal until an effective LIBOR Rate Election is thereafter made for such sums. 
  
 (b) Each Rate Election Notice must be received by Bank not later than 10:00 a.m. on the applicable date as follows: 
  
 (i) With respect to an advance of or conversion to Base Rate Principal, one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed date of advance or conversion; and

  
 (ii) With respect to an advance of, conversion to or
continuation of LIBOR Rate Principal, three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of advance, conversion or continuation. 
  
 Unless otherwise specified herein, no conversion from LIBOR Rate Principal may be made other than at the end of the corresponding Interest Period. Each
Rate Election Notice shall stipulate: (A) the amount of the advance or of the Principal Debt to be converted or continued; (B) the nature of the proposed advance, conversion or continuation, which shall be either Base Rate Principal, LIBOR Rate
Principal or a combination thereof, and in the case of a conversion or continuation, the nature of the Principal Debt to be converted or continued; and (C) in the case of LIBOR Rate Principal, the proposed commencement date and duration of the
Interest Period. All such notices shall be irrevocable once given, and shall be deemed to have been given only when actually received by Bank in writing in a form specified by Bank. 
  
 Section 3.3 General Conditions Precedent to LIBOR Rate Election. In addition to any other conditions herein, a LIBOR
Rate Election shall not be permitted if: 
  
 (a) An Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing; or 
  
 (b) After giving
effect to the requested LIBOR Rate Election, the sum of all LIBOR Rate Principal plus all Base Rate Principal would exceed the principal face amount of this Note; or 
  
 (c) The requested LIBOR Rate Election would cause more than seven (7) LIBOR Rate Elections by Borrower to be in effect at
any one time; or 
  
 (d) The amount of LIBOR Rate Principal
requested in the LIBOR Rate Election is other than $1,000,000.00 or a larger integral multiple of $500,000.00 or 
  
 (e) The requested interest period does not conform to the definition of Interest Period herein; or 
  
 (f) Any of the circumstances referred to in Section 3.5 hereof shall
apply with respect to the requested LIBOR Rate Election or the requested LIBOR Rate Principal. 
  

 -2- 

 Section 3.4 Computations and Determinations. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a year
of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Bank shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Principal Debt in accordance with this Note and its determination thereof
shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The books and records of Bank shall be conclusive evidence, in the absence of manifest error, of all sums owing to Bank from time to time under this Note, but the failure to record any such
information shall not limit or affect the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents. 
  
 Section 3.5 Unavailability of Rate. If, with respect to any LIBOR Rate Election, or any LIBOR Rate Principal outstanding hereunder, Bank determines that no adequate basis exists for determining the LIBOR Rate
or that the LIBOR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Bank of funding or maintaining the applicable LIBOR Rate Principal for such Interest Period, or that any applicable Law, or any request or directive (whether or not having the
force of law) of any Tribunal, or compliance therewith by Bank, prohibits or restricts or makes impossible the making or maintaining of such LIBOR Rate Election or LIBOR Rate Principal or the charging of interest on such LIBOR Rate Principal, and
Bank so notifies Borrower, then until Bank notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (a) the obligation of Bank to permit such LIBOR Rate Election shall be suspended and (b) all existing affected LIBOR
Rate Principal shall automatically become Base Rate Principal, either (i) on the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (if Bank determines that it may lawfully continue to fund and maintain the affected LIBOR Rate Principal to such day); or
(ii) immediately (if Bank determines that it may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain the affected LIBOR Rate Principal to such day) and in such case Borrower shall pay to Bank the Consequential Loss, if any, pursuant to Section 4
hereof. 
  
 Section 3.6 Increased Cost and Reduced Return.
If at any time after the date hereof, Bank (which shall include, for purposes of this Section 3.6, any corporation controlling Bank) determines that the adoption or modification of any applicable Law regarding taxation, Bank’s required
levels of reserves, deposits, insurance or capital (including any allocation of capital requirements or conditions), or similar requirements, or any interpretation or administration thereof by any Tribunal or compliance by Bank with any of such
requirements, has or would have the effect of (a) increasing Bank’s costs related to the Indebtedness, or (b) reducing the yield or rate of return of Bank on the Indebtedness, to a level below that which Bank could have achieved but for the
adoption or modification of any such requirements, Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days of any request by Bank, pay to Bank such additional amounts as (in Bank’s sole judgment, after good faith and reasonable computation) will compensate
Bank for such increase in costs or reduction in yield or rate of return of Bank. No failure by Bank to immediately demand payment of any additional amounts payable hereunder shall constitute a waiver of Bank’s right to demand payment of any
such amounts at any subsequent time. Nothing herein contained shall be construed or shall so operate as to require Borrower to pay any interest, fees, costs or charges greater than is permitted by applicable Law. 
  
 Section 3.7 Past Due Rate. If any amount payable by Borrower under any
Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), such amount shall thereafter bear interest at the Past Due Rate (as defined below) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Accrued and unpaid interest or
past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable on demand, at a fluctuating rate per annum (the “Past Due Rate”) equal to the higher of (a) the Prime Rate plus two hundred (200) basis points, or
(b) the LIBOR Rate plus two hundred (200) basis points.

 “Base Rate” means, on any day, a simple rate per annum equal to the sum of the Prime
Rate for that day plus the Base Rate Margin. Without notice to Borrower or anyone else, the Base Rate shall automatically fluctuate upward and downward as and in the amount by which the Prime Rate fluctuates.

 “Indebtedness” means any and all of the indebtedness to Bank
evidenced, governed or secured by or arising under this Note or any other Loan Document. 
  
 “Interest Period” means with respect to any LIBOR Rate Principal, the period commencing on the date such LIBOR Rate Principal is disbursed or on the date on which the Principal Debt or any portion
thereof is converted into or continued as such LIBOR Rate Principal, and ending on the date one (1), two (2), three (3), or six (6) months thereafter, as elected by Borrower in the applicable Rate Election Notice; provided that: 
  
 (i) Each Interest Period must commence on a Business Day; 
  
 (ii) In the case of the continuation of LIBOR Rate Principal, the Interest
Period applicable after the continuation of such LIBOR Rate Principal shall commence on the last day of the preceding Interest Period; 
  
 (iii) If any Interest Period applicable to LIBOR Rate Principal would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to carry such Interest Period into another calendar month, in which event such Interest Period shall end on the next preceding Business Day; 
  
 (iv) Any Interest Period applicable to LIBOR Rate Principal that begins on
the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall end on the last Business Day of the last full calendar month at the end of
such Interest Period; and 
  
 (v) No Interest Period shall extend
beyond the Maturity Date, and any Interest Period which begins before the Maturity Date and would otherwise end after the Maturity Date shall instead end on the Maturity Date. 
  
 “Laws” means all constitutions, treaties, statutes, laws, ordinances, regulations, rules, orders, writs,
injunctions, or decrees of the United States of America, any state or commonwealth, any municipality, any foreign country, any territory or possession, or any Tribunal. 
  
 “LIBOR Margin” means eighty-seven and one-half (87.5) basis points.

 -4- 

 “LIBOR Rate Principal” means any portion of the Principal Debt which bears interest at

 “LIBOR Reserve Percentage” means, with respect to any applicable Interest Period, for any day that percentage (expressed as a decimal) which is in effect on such day, as prescribed by the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System (or any successor) for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including basic, supplemental, emergency, special and marginal reserves) generally applicable to financial institutions regulated by the Federal Reserve Board
comparable in size and type to Bank, in respect of “Eurocurrency liabilities” (or in respect of any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Rate Principal is determined),
whether or not Bank has any Eurocurrency liabilities or such requirement otherwise in fact applies to Bank. The LIBOR Rate shall be adjusted automatically as of the effective date of each change in the LIBOR Reserve Percentage. 
  
 “London Interbank Offered Rate” means, with respect to any
applicable Interest Period, the rate per annum appearing on Telerate Page 3750 (or any successor page) as the British Bankers’ Association Libor Rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days prior
to the first day of such Interest Period for a term comparable to such Interest Period. If for any reason such rate is not available, the term “London Interbank Offered Rate” shall mean, for any Interest Period therefor, the rate per annum
appearing on such other page or service selected by Bank that shows the British Bankers’ Association Libor Rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars (for delivery on the first day of such Interest Period) at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) two
Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period for a term comparable to such Interest Period; provided, however, if more than one rate is specified on such other page or service, the applicable rate shall be the
arithmetic mean of all such rates. 
  
 “Note”
means this promissory note, and any renewals, extensions, amendments or supplements hereof. 
  
 “Potential Default” means any condition or event which with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both would, unless cured or waived, become an Event of Default. 
  
 “Prime Rate” means, on any day, the rate of interest per
annum then most recently established by Bank as its “prime rate,” it being understood and agreed that such rate is set by Bank as a general reference rate of interest, taking into account such factors as Bank may deem appropriate, that it
is not necessarily the lowest or best rate actually charged to any customer or a favored rate, that it may not correspond with future increases or decreases in interest rates charged by other Banks or market rates in general, and that Bank may make
various business or other loans at rates of interest having no relationship to such rate. If Bank (including any subsequent holder of this Note) ceases to exist or to establish or publish a prime rate from which the Prime Rate is then determined,
the applicable variable rate from which the Prime Rate is determined thereafter shall be instead the prime rate reported in The Wall Street Journal (or the average prime rate if a high and a low prime rate are therein reported), and the Prime
Rate shall change without notice with each change in such prime rate as of the date such change is reported.

 Section 4. Prepayment. 
  
 (a) Borrower may prepay the principal balance of this Note, in full at any time or in part from time to time, provided that:
(i) no prepayment may be made which in Bank’s judgment would contravene or prejudice funding under any applicable permanent loan commitment or tri-party agreement or the like; (ii) Bank shall have actually received from Borrower prior
irrevocable written notice (the “Prepayment Notice”) of Borrower’s intent to prepay, the amount of principal which will be prepaid (the “Prepaid Principal”), and the date on which the prepayment will be made;
(iii) each prepayment shall be in the amount of $1,000 or a larger integral multiple of $1,000 (unless the prepayment retires the outstanding balance of this Note in full); and (iv) each prepayment shall be in the amount of 100% of the Prepaid
Principal, plus accrued unpaid interest thereon to the date of prepayment, plus any other sums which have become due and payable to Bank under the Loan Documents on or before the date of prepayment but have not been paid; and (v) no portion of LIBOR
Rate Principal may be prepaid except on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, unless (X) the prior written consent of Bank is obtained which consent, if given, shall provide, without limitation, the manner and order in which the
prepayment is to be applied to the Indebtedness, and (Y) Borrower pays to Bank and Consequential Loss as a result thereof, in accordance with Section 4(b) below. If this Note is prepaid in full, any commitment of Bank for further advances
shall automatically terminate. 
  
 (b) Within fifteen (15) days
after request by Bank (or at the time of any prepayment), Borrower shall pay to Bank such amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for any loss, cost, expense, penalty, claim or liability, including any loss incurred in obtaining, prepaying,
liquidating or employing deposits or other funds from third parties and any loss of revenue, profit or yield, as determined by Bank in its judgment reasonably exercised (together, “Consequential Loss”) incurred by Bank with respect
to any LIBOR Rate, including any LIBOR Rate Election or LIBOR Rate Principal as a result of: (i) the failure of Borrower to make any payment on the date or in the amount specified in any Prepayment Notice from Borrower to Bank; (ii) the failure to
Borrower to borrow, continue or convert into LIBOR Rate Principal on the date or in the amount specified in any Prepayment Notice given by Borrower to Bank; (iii) the early termination of any Interest Period for any reason; or (iv) the payment or
prepayment of any amount on a date other than the date such amount is required or permitted to be paid or prepaid. Borrower agrees to pay all Consequential Loss upon any prepayment of LIBOR Rate Principal, whether voluntary or involuntary, whether
effected by a credit bid at foreclosure, or whether by reason of acceleration upon an Event of Default or upon any transfer or conveyance of any right, title or interest in the Property giving Bank the right to accelerate the maturity of this Note
as provided in the Deed of Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of the Consequential Loss shall never be less than zero or greater than is permitted by applicable Law. Bank shall provide a notice to Borrower setting forth Bank’s
determination of any Consequential Loss, which notice shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error. Bank reserves the right to provide interim calculations of such Consequential Loss in any notice of default or notice of sale for
informational purposes, but the exact amount of such Consequential Loss shall be calculated only upon the actual prepayment of LIBOR Rate Principal as described herein. The Consequential Loss shall be included in the total indebtedness secured by
the Deed of Trust for all purposes, including in connection with a foreclosure sale. Bank may include the amount of the Consequential Loss in any credit bid Bank may make at a foreclosure sale. Bank shall have no obligation to purchase, sell and/or
match funds in connection with the funding or maintaining of the Loan or any portion thereof. The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive any termination of the Loan Documents and payment of this Note and shall not be waived by any
delay by Bank in seeking such compensation. 
  
 (c) By its
signature below, Borrower waives any right under California Civil Code Section 2954.10 or otherwise to prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, without payment of any and all Consequential Loss as described above. Borrower acknowledges that prepayment
of the Loan may result in Bank’s incurring additional losses, costs, expenses and liabilities, including lost revenues and lost profits. Borrower therefore agrees to pay any and all Consequential Loss if any LIBOR Rate Principal is prepaid,
whether voluntarily or by reason of acceleration, including acceleration upon any transfer or conveyance of any right, title or interest in the Property giving Bank the right to accelerate the maturity of this Note as provided in the Deed of Trust.
Borrower agrees that Bank’s willingness to offer the LIBOR Rate to Borrower is sufficient and independent consideration, given individual weight by Bank, for this waiver. Borrower understands that Bank would not offer the LIBOR Rate to Borrower
absent this waiver.

 Section 5. Late
Charges. If Borrower shall fail to make any payment under the terms of this Note (other than the payment due at maturity) within fifteen (15) days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay to Bank on demand a late charge equal to
four percent (4%) of the amount of such payment. Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed as in any way extending the due date of any payment. The late charge is imposed for the purpose of defraying the expenses of Bank incident to
handling such delinquent payment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other amount that Bank may be entitled to receive or action that Bank may be authorized to take as a result of such late payment. 
  
 Section 6. Certain Provisions Regarding Payments. All payments made
under this Note shall be applied, to the extent thereof, to late charges, to accrued but unpaid interest, to unpaid principal, and to any other sums due and unpaid to Bank under the Loan Documents, in such manner and order as Bank may elect in its
sole discretion, any instructions from Borrower or anyone else to the contrary notwithstanding. Remittances shall be made without offset, demand, counterclaim, deduction, or recoupment (each of which is hereby waived) and shall be accepted subject
to the condition that any check or draft may be handled for collection in accordance with the practice of the collecting bank or banks. Acceptance by Bank of any payment in an amount less than the amount then due on any indebtedness shall be deemed
an acceptance on account only, notwithstanding any notation on or accompanying such partial payment to the contrary, and shall not in any way (a) waive or excuse the existence of an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), (b) waive, impair or
extinguish any right or remedy available to Bank hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, or (c) waive the requirement of punctual payment and performance or constitute a novation in any respect. Payments received after 2:00 o’clock p.m.
shall be deemed to be received on, and shall be posted as of, the following business day. Whenever any payment under this Note or any other Loan Document falls due on a Saturday, a Sunday or another day on which the offices of Bank are not open for
the conduct of its banking business at the place where this Note is payable, such payment may be made on the next succeeding day on which the offices of Bank are open for such business. 
  
 Section 7. Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute an “Event
of Default” under this Note: 
  
 (a) Borrower fails to
pay when and as due and payable any amounts payable by Borrower to Bank under the terms of this Note. 
  
 (b) Any covenant, agreement or condition in this Note is not fully and timely performed, observed or kept, subject to any applicable grace or cure period.

  
 (c) An Event of Default (as therein defined) occurs under any
of the Loan Documents other than this Note (subject to any applicable grace or cure period). 
  

 -7- 

 Section 8. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank may at any time thereafter
exercise any one or more of the following rights, powers and remedies: 
  
 (a) Bank may accelerate the Maturity Date and declare the unpaid principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note, and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, at once due and payable, and upon
such declaration the same shall at once be due and payable. 
  
 (b) Bank may set off the amount due against any and all accounts, credits, money, securities or other property now or hereafter on deposit with, held by or in the possession of Bank to the credit or for the account of Borrower, without
notice to or the consent of Borrower. 
  
 (c) Bank may exercise
any of its other rights, powers and remedies under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity. 
  
 Section 9. Remedies Cumulative. All of the rights and remedies of Bank under this Note and the other Loan Documents are cumulative of each other and of any and all other rights at law or in equity, and the
exercise by Bank of any one or more of such rights and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Bank of any or all such other rights and remedies. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy shall exhaust it or
preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every right and remedy may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No failure by Bank to exercise, nor delay in exercising, any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of such right or
remedy or as a waiver of any Event of Default. 
  
 Section 10.
Costs and Expenses of Enforcement. Borrower agrees to pay to Bank on demand all costs and expenses incurred by Bank in seeking to collect this Note or to enforce any of Bank’s rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, including court
costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, whether or not suit is filed hereon, or whether in connection with arbitration, judicial reference, bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal. 
  
 Section 11. Service of Process. 
  
 Borrower hereby consents to process being served in any suit, action, or
proceeding instituted in connection with this Note by (a) the mailing of a copy thereof by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to Borrower and (b) serving a copy thereof upon
                    , the agent hereby designated and appointed by Borrower as Borrower’s agent for service of process. Borrower
irrevocably agrees that such service shall be deemed to be service of process upon Borrower in any such suit, action, or proceeding. Nothing in this Note shall affect the right of Bank to serve process in any manner otherwise permitted by law and
nothing in this Note will limit the right of Bank otherwise to bring proceedings against Borrower in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, subject to any provision or agreement for arbitration, judicial reference or other dispute
resolution set forth in the Loan Agreement. 
  
 Section 12.
Heirs, Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Note and of the other Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns of the parties. The foregoing sentence shall not be
construed to permit Borrower to assign the Loan except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents. 
  
 Section 13. General Provisions. Time is of the essence with respect to Borrower’s obligations under this Note. If more than one person or
entity executes this Note as Borrower, all of said parties shall be jointly and severally liable for payment of the indebtedness evidenced hereby. Borrower and each party executing this Note as Borrower hereby severally (a) waive demand, presentment
for payment, notice of dishonor and of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and all other notices (except any notices which are specifically required by this Note or any other Loan Document),
filing of suit and diligence in collecting this Note or enforcing any of the security herefor; (b) agree to any substitution, subordination, exchange or release of any such security or the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon;

any 
  

 -8- 

 extensions or postponements of time of payment of this Note for any period or periods of time and to any partial
payments, before or after maturity, and to any other indulgences with respect hereto, without notice thereof to any of them; and (e) submit (and waive all rights to object) to non-exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting
in San Francisco County, California for the enforcement of any and all obligations under this Note and the other Loan Documents; (f) waive the benefit of all homestead and similar exemptions as to this Note; (g) agree that their liability under this
Note shall not be affected or impaired by any determination that any title, security interest or lien taken by Bank to secure this Note is invalid or unperfected; and (h) hereby subordinate to the Loan and the Loan Documents any and all rights
against Borrower and any security for the payment of this Note, whether by subrogation, agreement or otherwise, until this Note is paid in full. A determination that any provision of this Note is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the
enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Note to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as
it may apply to other persons or circumstances. This Note may not be amended except in a writing specifically intended for such purpose and executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment is sought. Captions and headings in this Note
are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing it. This Note and its validity, enforcement and interpretation shall be governed by the laws of the State of California (without regard to any principles of conflicts of laws) and
applicable United States federal law. Whenever a time of day is referred to herein, unless otherwise specified such time shall be the local time of the place where payment of this Note is to be made. The words “include” and
“including” shall be interpreted as if followed by the words “without limitation.” 
  
 Section 14. Notices; Time. All notices, requests, consents, approvals or demands (collectively, “Notice”) required or permitted by
this Note to be given by any party to any other party hereunder shall, unless specified otherwise, be in writing (including facsimile (fax) transmission) and shall be given to such party at its address or fax number set forth in the notice
provisions of the Loan Agreement, or at such other address or fax number as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose by Notice to the other party. Each such Notice shall be effective when actually received by the addressee or when the
attempted initial delivery is refused or when it cannot be made because of a change of address of which the sending party has not been notified; provided, that notices to Bank under Sections 3.1 through 3.8 hereof, inclusive, and notices of
changed address or fax number, shall not be effective until received. 
  
 Section 15. No Usury. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower and Bank at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Bank to
contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this Section shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note and the other Loan Documents. If applicable state or federal law
should at any time be judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if
Bank’s exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Bank’s express intent that all excess
amounts theretofore collected by Bank shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust, and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed
and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called
for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Bank for the use or forbearance of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the
Loan. 
  
 Section 16. Automatic Deduction. Borrower agrees
that principal and interest payments on the Note will be deducted automatically on the due date from checking account number 17685-00608 maintained by Borrower at Bank (the “Checking Account”). 
  

 -9- 

 Bank will debit the Checking Account on the dates the payments become due. If a due date does not fall on
a Business Day, Bank will debit the Checking Account on the first Business Day following the due date. 
  
 Borrower will maintain the Checking Account in good standing with Bank throughout the term of the Loan, and maintain sufficient funds in the Checking
Account on the dates Bank enters debits authorized by this Agreement. If there are insufficient funds in the Checking Account on the date Bank enters any debit authorized by this Agreement, without limiting Bank’s other remedies in such an
event, Bank may reverse the debit. 
  

 -10- 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower has duly executed this Note as of the date first above written.
