      A. Financial Information. Borrower has delivered to Lender certain
financial statements and other information concerning the Borrower Parties in
connection with the transaction described in this Agreement (collectively, the
"Financial Information"). The Financial Information is true, correct and
complete in all material respects; there have been no amendments to the
Financial Information since the date such Financial Information was prepared or
delivered to Lender. Borrower understands that Lender is relying upon the
Financial Information and Borrower represents that such reliance is reasonable.
All financial statements included in the Financial Information were prepared in
accordance with GAAP and fairly present as of the date of such financial
statements the financial condition of each individual or entity to which they
pertain. No change has occurred with respect to the financial condition of any
of the Borrower Parties and/or the Premises as reflected in the Financial
Information which has not been disclosed in writing to Lender or has had, or
could reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect.

      B. Organization and Authority. Each of the Borrower Parties (other than
individuals), as applicable, is duly organized or formed, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of its state of incorporation or formation.
Borrower is qualified as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability
company, as applicable, to do business in the state where the Premises is
located and each of the Borrower Parties is qualified as a foreign corporation,
partnership or limited liability company, as applicable, to do business in any
other jurisdiction where the failure to be qualified would reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. All necessary action has been
taken to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower
Parties of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The person(s) who have
executed this Agreement on behalf of Borrower are duly authorized so to do.
Borrower is not a "foreign corporation", "foreign partnership", "foreign trust",
"foreign estate" or "foreign person" (as those terms are defined by the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended). Borrower's U.S. Federal Tax Identification
number, Organization Identification number and principal place of business are
correctly set forth on the signature page of this Agreement. None of the
Borrower Parties, and no individual or


                                       8
<PAGE>

entity owning directly or indirectly any interest in any of the Borrower
Parties, is an individual or entity whose property or interests are subject to
being blocked under any of the OFAC Laws and Regulations or is otherwise in
violation of any of the OFAC Laws and Regulations; provided, however, the
representation contained in this sentence shall not apply to any Person to the
extent such Person's interest is in or through a U.S. Publicly-Traded Entity.

      C. Enforceability of Documents. Upon execution by the Borrower Parties,
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall constitute the legal, valid
and binding obligations of the Borrower Parties, enforceable against the
Borrower Parties in accordance with their respective terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation,
reorganization and other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and
general principles of equity.

      D. Litigation. There are no suits, actions, proceedings or investigations
pending, or to the best of its knowledge, threatened against or involving the
Borrower Parties or the Premises before any arbitrator or Governmental
Authority, except for such suits, actions, proceedings or investigations which,
individually or in the aggregate, have not had, and would not reasonably be
expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect.

      E. Absence of Breaches or Defaults. The Borrower Parties are not, and the
authorization, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents will not result, in any breach or default under any other
document, instrument or agreement to which any of the Borrower Parties is a
party or by which any of the Borrower Parties, the Premises or any of the
property of any of the Borrower Parties is subject or bound, except for such
breaches or defaults which, individually or in the aggregate, have not had, and
would not reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect. The
authorization, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents will not violate any applicable law, statute, regulation,
rule, ordinance, code, rule or order. The Premises is not subject to any right
of first refusal, right of first offer or option to purchase or lease granted to
a third party.

      F. Utilities. Adequate public utilities are available at the Premises to
permit utilization of the Premises as a Permitted Concept and all utility
connection fees and use charges will have been paid in full prior to
delinquency.

      G. Zoning; Compliance With Laws. The Premises is in compliance with all
applicable zoning requirements, and the use of the Premises as a Permitted
Concept does not constitute a nonconforming use under applicable zoning
requirements. The Borrower Parties and the Premises are in compliance with all
Applicable Regulations except for such noncompliance, which has not had, and
would not reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect.

      H. Area Development; Wetlands. No condemnation or eminent domain
proceedings affecting the Premises have been commenced or, to the best of
Borrower's knowledge, are contemplated. Neither the Premises nor, to the best of
Borrower's knowledge, the real property bordering the Premises are designated by
any Governmental Authority as a wetlands.

      I. Licenses and Permits; Access. All required licenses and permits, both
governmental and private, to use and operate the Premises as a Permitted Concept
are in full force and effect, except for such licenses and permits the failure
of which to obtain has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to result
in, a Material Adverse Effect. Adequate rights of access to public roads and
ways are available to the Premises for unrestricted ingress and egress and
otherwise to permit utilization of the Premises for their intended purposes, and
all such public roads and ways have been completed and dedicated to public use.

      J. Condition of Premises. The Premises, including the Personal Property,

excepted, fully equipped and operational, free from structural defects, safe and
properly lighted.

      of any person or entity pursuant to any Environmental Law, other
      environmental conditions in connection with the Premises, or any actual or
      potential administrative or judicial proceedings in connection with any of
      the foregoing;

and will not protect Borrower or provide Borrower with any coverage thereunder.
Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Environmental Insurer may rely on the
environmental representations and warranties set forth in this subsection K,

rights and remedies available at law or in equity as a result of a breach of
such representations and warranties, including, to the extent applicable, the
right of subrogation.

leasehold interest in the Premises. Borrower is the owner of all Personal
Property, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, charges and


                                       10
<PAGE>

security interests of any nature whatsoever, and no Affiliate of Borrower owns

      N. Permitted Lease. Borrower has delivered to Lender a true, correct and
complete copy of the Permitted Lease. The Permitted Lease is the only lease or

enforceable against Borrower and the Permitted Lessor in accordance with its
terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, liquidation, reorganization and other laws affecting the rights of
creditors generally and general principles of equity. None of the Borrower
Parties has assigned, transferred, mortgaged, hypothecated or otherwise
encumbered the Permitted Lease or any rights thereunder or any interest therein,

Lessor has made any assignment, pledge or hypothecation of all or any part of
its rights or interest in the Permitted Lease. No notice of default from the
Permitted Lessor has been received under the Permitted Lease which has not been
cured and no notice of default to the Permitted Lessor has been given under the
Permitted Lease which has not been cured. No event has occurred and no condition
exists which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would

(including renewal options) which will expire after the fifth anniversary of the
scheduled maturity date of the Note.

      O. Money Laundering. (1) Borrower has taken all reasonable measures, in
accordance with all applicable Anti-Money Laundering Laws, with respect to each
holder of a direct or indirect interest in the Borrower Parties, to assure that
funds invested by such holders in the Borrower Parties are derived from legal
sources; provided, however, none of the foregoing shall apply to any Person to
the extent that such Person's interest is in or through a U.S. Publicly-Traded
Entity.

      (2) To Borrower's knowledge after making due inquiry, neither any of the
Borrower Parties nor any holder of a direct or indirect interest in the Borrower
Parties (a) is under investigation by any Governmental Authority for, or has
been charged with, or convicted of, any violation of any Anti-Money Laundering
Laws, or drug trafficking, terrorist-related activities or other money
laundering predicated crimes or a violation of the BSA, (b) has been assessed
civil penalties under these or related laws, or (c) has had any of its funds
seized or forfeited in an action under these or related laws; provided, however,
none of the foregoing shall apply to any Person to the extent that such Person's
interest is in or through a U.S. Publicly-Traded Entity.

      (3) Borrower has taken reasonable steps, consistent with industry practice
for comparable organizations and in any event as required by law, to ensure that
the Borrower Parties are and shall be in compliance with all (i) Anti-Money
Laundering Laws and (ii) OFAC Laws and Regulations.

      6. COVENANTS. Borrower covenants to Lender (and Environmental Insurer
solely with respect to Section 6.F) from and after the Closing Date and until

scheduled payments made in respect of the Obligations are transferred by
Automated Clearing House Debit initiated by Lender directly from an account at a
U.S. bank in the name of Borrower to such account as Lender may designate or as
Lender may otherwise designate.

formation. Borrower shall be qualified as a foreign corporation, partnership or
limited liability company to do business in the state where the Premises is
located, and each of the Borrower Parties shall be qualified as a foreign
corporation, partnership or limited liability company in any other jurisdiction
where the failure to be qualified would reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect. Borrower shall preserve its current form of
organization and shall not change its legal name, its state of formation, nor,
in one transaction or a series of related transactions, merge with or into, or
consolidate with, any other entity without providing, in each case, Lender with
30 days' prior written notice and obtaining Lender's prior written consent (to
the extent such consent is required under Section 7 of this Agreement). In
addition, Borrower shall require, and shall take reasonable measures to comply
with the requirement, that no individual or entity owning directly or indirectly
any interest in any of the Borrower Parties is an individual or entity whose
property or interests are subject to being blocked under any of the OFAC Laws
and Regulations or is otherwise in violation of any of the OFAC Laws and

            (b) any non-compliance with any Environmental Laws related in any
      way to the Premises;

      enforcement, clean-up, remedial, removal or other governmental or

            (a) perform any environmental site assessment or other investigation
      of environmental conditions in connection with the Premises as may be
      reasonably requested by Lender (including but not limited to sampling,
      testing and analysis of soil, water, air, building materials and other
      materials and substances whether solid, liquid or gas), and share with
      Lender and Environmental Insurer the reports and other results thereof,

      All inspections and tests performed on the Premises shall be conducted in
      compliance with all Environmental Laws.

      (8) Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, and without limiting the
rights of Lender under any other provision of this Agreement, including, without

Lender to:

            (a) reasonably effectuate Remediation of any condition (including

<PAGE>

have the right, but not the obligation, to enter upon the Premises during normal
business hours or at any time in the event of an emergency (including without
limitation in connection with any Securitization, Participation or Transfer
contemplated by this Agreement or in connection with the exercise of any
remedies set forth in the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents) to assess any
and all aspects of the environmental condition of the Premises and its use,
including but not limited to conducting any environmental assessment or audit
(the scope of which shall be determined in Lender's sole and absolute
discretion) and taking samples of soil, groundwater or other water, air, or
building materials, and conducting other invasive testing. Borrower shall
cooperate with and provide access to Lender, Environmental Insurer and any such
person or entity designated by Lender. Any such assessment and investigation
shall be at Borrower's sole cost and expense if, at the time Lender undertakes
such assessment or investigation, Lender has a reasonable basis for believing
that a Release has occurred at the Premises in excess of Permitted Amounts or if
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Otherwise, any such
assessment and investigation shall be at Lender's sole cost and expense.

      (10) Upon any Release, on, above or under the Premises, Borrower shall

financial information as Lender may reasonably request in order to establish
compliance with the financial covenants in the Loan Documents, including,
without limitation, Section 6.J of this Agreement. All such financial statements
shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP from period to period, and shall be
certified to be accurate and complete by Borrower (or the Treasurer or other
appropriate officer of Borrower). In the event the property and business at the
Premises is ordinarily consolidated with other business for financial statement
purposes, such financial statements shall be prepared on a consolidated basis
showing separately the sales, profits and losses, assets and liabilities
pertaining to the Premises with the basis for allocation of overhead of other
charges being clearly set forth. The financial statements delivered to Lender
need not be audited, but Borrower shall deliver to Lender copies of any audited
financial statements of Borrower which may be prepared, as soon as they are
available. Borrower shall also cause to be delivered to Lender copies of any
financial statements required to be delivered to Borrower by any tenants of the

stolen, in substitution therefor, a new promissory note containing the same

persons to make such inspections, tests, copies, and verifications as Lender
considers necessary, and (3) if Borrower is in breach of the Fixed Charge
Coverage Ratio requirement set forth in the following subsection J, pay expenses
reasonably incurred by Lender from time to time in conducting such inspections,
tests, copies and verifications upon demand (such amounts to bear interest at
the Default Rate if not paid upon demand until paid).

            "Net Income" shall mean with respect to the period of determination,
      the net income or net loss of Borrower and the other Borrower Parties,
      collectively. In determining the amount of Net Income, (i) adjustments
      shall be made for nonrecurring gains and losses or non-cash items
      allocable to the period of determination, (ii) deductions shall be made
      for, among other things, Depreciation and Amortization, Interest Expense,
      Operating Lease Expense and actual corporate overhead expense allocable to
      the period of determination, and (iii) no deductions shall be made for
      income taxes or charges equivalent to income taxes allocable to the period
      of determination, as determined in accordance with GAAP.

            "Operating Lease Expense" shall mean the sum of all payments and
      expenses incurred by Borrower and the other Borrower Parties,
      collectively, under any operating leases during the period of
      determination including, without limitation, the Permitted Lease, as
      determined in accordance with GAAP.

      Lender shall have the right to elect at any time to convert the Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio requirement from a requirement which is applicable to the
Premises individually to an aggregate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio requirement
which is applicable to the Premises and such of the Related Premises as may be
selected by Lender (collectively, the "FCCR Premises"). To the extent that an
aggregate Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio requirement is imposed by Lender, the
definitions relating to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be deemed to be
modified as applicable to provide for the calculation of the aggregate Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio.

      K. Affiliate Transactions. Unless otherwise approved by Lender, all
transactions between Borrower and any of its Affiliates shall be on terms
substantially as advantageous to Borrower as those which could be obtained by
Borrower in a comparable arm's length transaction with a non-Affiliate of
Borrower.

      L. Compliance Certificates. Within 60 days after the end of each fiscal
year of Borrower, Borrower shall deliver a compliance certificate to Lender in a
form to be provided by Lender in order to establish that Borrower is in
compliance in all material respects with all of its obligations, duties and
covenants under the Loan Documents.

      M. OFAC Laws and Regulations. Borrower shall immediately notify Lender in
writing if any individual or entity owning directly or indirectly any interest
in any of the Borrower Parties or any director, officer, member, manager or
partner of any of such holders is an individual or entity whose property or
interests are subject to being blocked under any of the OFAC Laws and
Regulations or is otherwise in violation of any of the OFAC Laws and
Regulations, or is under investigation by any governmental entity for, or has
been charged with, or convicted of, drug trafficking, terrorist-related
activities or any violation of Anti-Money Laundering Laws, has been assessed
civil penalties under these or related laws, or has had funds seized or
forfeited in an action under these or related laws; provided, however, the
covenant contained in this sentence shall not apply to any Person to the extent
that such Person's interest is in or through a U.S. Publicly-Traded Entity.

      7. PROHIBITION ON CHANGE OF CONTROL AND PLEDGE. Without limiting the terms
and conditions of Section 3.09 of the Mortgage, Borrower agrees that, from and
after the Closing Date and until all of the Obligations are satisfied in full,
without the prior written consent of Lender: (1) no Change of Control shall
occur; and (2) no interest in any of the Borrower Parties shall be pledged,
encumbered, hypothecated or assigned as collateral for any obligation of any of
the Borrower Parties (each, a "Pledge"). In addition, no interest in any of the
Borrower Parties, or in any individual or person owning directly or indirectly
any interest in any of the Borrower Parties, shall be transferred, assigned or
conveyed to any individual or person whose property or interests are subject to
being blocked under any of the OFAC Laws and Regulations and/or who is in
violation of any of the OFAC Laws and Regulations, and any such transfer,
assignment or conveyance shall not be effective until the transferee has
provided written certification to Borrower and Lender that (A) the transferee or
any person who owns directly or indirectly any interest in transferee, is not an
individual or entity whose property or interests are subject to being blocked
under any of the OFAC Laws and Regulations or is otherwise in violation of the
OFAC Laws and Regulations, and (B) the transferee has taken reasonable measures
to assure than any individual or entity who owns directly or indirectly any
interest in transferee, is not an individual or entity whose property or
interests are subject to being blocked under any of the OFAC Laws and
Regulations or is otherwise in violation of the OFAC Laws and Regulations;
provided, however, the covenant contained in this sentence shall not apply to
any Person to the extent that such Person's interest is in or through a U.S.
Publicly-Traded Entity. Lender's consent to a Change of Control and/or Pledge
shall be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as Lender shall
determine in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, (i) the
execution and delivery of such modifications to the terms of the Loan Documents
as Lender shall request, (ii) the proposed Change of Control and/or Pledge
having been approved by each of the rating agencies which have issued ratings in
connection with any Securitization of the Loan as well as any other rating
agency selected by Lender, and (iii) the proposed transferee having agreed to
comply with all of the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents (including any
modifications requested by Lender pursuant to clause (i) above). In addition,
any such consent shall be conditioned upon payment by Borrower to Lender of (x)
a fee equal to one percent (1%) of the then outstanding principal balance of the
Note and (y) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in
connection with such consent, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees. Lender shall not be required to demonstrate any actual
impairment of its security or any increased risk of default hereunder in order
to declare the Obligations immediately due and payable upon a Change of Control
or Pledge in violation of this Section. The provisions of this Section shall
apply to every Change of Control or Pledge regardless of whether voluntary or
not, or whether or not Lender has consented to any previous Change of Control or
Pledge.

      8. TRANSACTION CHARACTERIZATION. A. It is the intent of the parties hereto
that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are a contract to extend a
financial accommodation (as such term is used in the Code) for the benefit of
Borrower.


                                       16
<PAGE>

      B. It is the intent of the parties hereto that the business relationship
created by the Loan Documents is solely that of creditor and debtor and has been
entered into by both parties in reliance upon the economic and legal bargains
contained in the Loan Documents. None of the agreements contained in the Loan
Documents is intended, nor shall the same be deemed or construed, to create a
partnership (either de jure or de facto) between Borrower and Lender, to make
them joint venturers, to make Borrower an agent, legal representative, partner,
subsidiary or employee of Lender, nor to make Lender in any way responsible for
the debts, obligations or losses of Borrower.

      9. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES. A. Each of the following shall be deemed an event
of default by Borrower (each, an "Event of Default"):

      (1) If any representation or warranty of any of the Borrower Parties set
forth in any of the Loan Documents is false in any material respect, or if any
of the Borrower Parties renders any statement or account which is false in any
material respect.

      (2) If any principal, interest or other monetary sum due under the Note,
the Mortgage or any other Loan Document is not paid within five days after the
date when due; provided, however, notwithstanding the occurrence of such an
Event of Default, Lender shall not be entitled to exercise its rights and
remedies set forth below unless and until Lender shall have given Borrower
notice thereof and a period of five days from the delivery of such notice shall
have elapsed without such Event of Default being cured.

      (3) If Borrower fails to observe or perform any of the other covenants
(except with respect to a breach of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, which
breach is addressed in subitem (7) below), conditions, or obligations of this
Agreement; provided, however, if any such failure does not involve the payment
of any monetary sum, is not willful or intentional, does not place any rights or
interest in collateral of Lender in immediate jeopardy, and is within the
reasonable power of Borrower to promptly cure after receipt of notice thereof,
all as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion, then such failure
shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder, unless otherwise expressly
provided herein, unless and until Lender shall have given Borrower notice
thereof and a period of 30 days shall have elapsed, during which period Borrower
may correct or cure such failure, upon failure of which an Event of Default
shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder without further notice or demand of
any kind being required. If such failure cannot reasonably be cured within such
30-day period, as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion, and
Borrower is diligently pursuing a cure of such failure, then Borrower shall have
a reasonable period to cure such failure beyond such 30-day period, which shall
not exceed 90 days after receiving notice of the failure from Lender. If
Borrower shall fail to correct or cure such failure within such 90-day period,
an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder without further
notice or demand of any kind being required.

      (4) If any of the Borrower Parties becomes insolvent within the meaning of
the Code, files or notifies Lender that it intends to file a petition under the
Code, initiates a proceeding under any similar law or statute relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, winding up or adjustment of debts
(collectively, an "Action"), becomes the subject of either a petition under the
Code or an Action, or is not generally paying its debts as the same become due.

      (5) If there is an "Event of Default" or a breach or default, after the
passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods, under any other Loan
Document or any of the Other Agreements.

      (6) If a final, nonappealable judgment is rendered by a court against any
of the Borrower Parties which (i) has a material adverse effect on the operation
of the Premises as a Permitted Concept, or (ii) is in an amount greater than
$100,000.00 and not covered by insurance, and, in either case, is not discharged
or provision made for such discharge within 60 days from the date of entry of
such judgment.

      (7) If there is a breach of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio requirement
and Lender shall have given Borrower notice thereof and Borrower shall have
failed within a period of 30 days from the delivery of such notice to (i) pay to
Lender the FCCR Amount (without premium or penalty), (ii) prepay the Note in
whole but not in part (without premium or penalty) or (iii) notify Lender of
Borrower's election to substitute a Substitute Premises for the Premises in
accordance with the terms of Section 11 (the failure of Borrower to complete
such substitution within 60


                                       17
<PAGE>

days after Lender shall have given the notice discussed above shall be deemed to
be an Event of Default without further notice or demand of any kind being
required). For purposes of the preceding sentence, "FCCR Amount" means that sum
of money which, when subtracted from the outstanding principal amount of the
Note, and assuming the resulting principal balance is reamortized in equal
monthly payments over the remaining term of the Note at the rate of interest set
forth therein, will result in an adjusted Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the
Premises of at least 1.25:1 based on the prior year's operations. Promptly after
Borrower's payment of the FCCR Amount, Borrower and Lender shall execute an
amendment to the Note in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender
reducing the principal amount payable to Lender under the Note and reamortizing
the principal amount of the Note in equal monthly payments over the then
remaining term of the Note at the rate of interest set forth therein.

      (8) If there is a breach or default, after the passage of any applicable
notice and grace period, under the Permitted Lease, or if the Permitted Lease
terminates or expires prior to the scheduled maturity date of the Note.

      B. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
subject to the limitations set forth in subsection A, Lender may declare all or
any part of the obligations of Borrower under the Note, this Agreement and any
other Loan Document to be due and payable, and the same shall thereupon become
due and payable without any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind
except as otherwise expressly provided herein, and Borrower hereby waives notice
of intent to accelerate the obligations secured by the Mortgage and notice of
acceleration. Thereafter, Lender may exercise, at its option, concurrently,
successively or in any combination, all remedies available at law or in equity,
including without limitation any one or more of the remedies available under the
Note, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document. Neither the acceptance of this
Agreement nor its enforcement shall prejudice or in any manner affect Lender's
right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or hereafter held by
Lender, it being agreed that Lender shall be entitled to enforce this Agreement
and any other security now or hereafter held by Lender in such order and manner
as it may in its absolute discretion determine. No remedy herein conferred upon
or reserved to Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. Every
power or remedy given by any of the Loan Documents to Lender, or to which Lender
may be otherwise entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from
time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Lender.

      10. INDEMNITY; RELEASE. A. Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense,
protect, defend, indemnify, release and hold harmless each of the Indemnified
Parties for, from and against any and all claims, suits, liabilities (including,
without limitation, strict liabilities), actions, proceedings, obligations,
debts, damages, losses, costs, expenses, diminutions in value, fines, penalties,
charges, fees, expenses, judgments, awards, amounts paid in settlement and
damages of whatever kind or nature (including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees, court costs and other costs of defense) (collectively, "Losses) (excluding
Losses suffered by an Indemnified Party directly arising out of such Indemnified
Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that the term
"gross negligence" shall not include gross negligence imputed as a matter of law
to any of the Indemnified Parties solely by reason of Borrower's interest in the
Premises or Borrower's failure to act in respect of matters which are or were
the obligation of Borrower under the Loan Documents), and costs of Remediation
(whether or not performed voluntarily), engineers' fees, environmental
consultants' fees, and costs of investigation (including but not limited to

      (8) any past, present or threatened injury to, destruction of or loss of
natural resources in any way connected with the Premises, including but not
limited to costs to investigate and assess such injury, destruction or loss;

      (9) any acts of Borrower, any person or entity affiliated with Borrower or

conditions of the Permitted Lease, including, without limitation, any costs and
expenses incurred by any of the Indemnified Parties to cure any such failure.

      B. Borrower fully and completely releases, waives and covenants not to
assert any claims, liabilities, actions, defenses, challenges, contests or other
opposition against Lender and Environmental Insurer, however characterized,
known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, now existing or arising in the future,
relating to this Agreement and any Hazardous Materials, Releases and/or

shall remain in full force and effect, and such invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provision shall be reformed by such court so as to give maximum
legal effect to the intention of the parties as expressed therein.

      G. Construction Generally. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
have been entered into by parties who are experienced in sophisticated and
complex matters similar to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents and are entered into by both parties in reliance upon
the economic and legal bargains contained therein and shall be interpreted and
construed in a fair and impartial manner without regard to such factors as the
party which prepared the instrument, the relative bargaining powers of the
parties or the domicile of any party. Borrower and Lender were each represented
by legal counsel competent in advising them of their obligations and liabilities
hereunder.

      H. Further Assurances. Borrower will, at its sole cost and expense, do,
execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be done, executed, acknowledged and
delivered all such further acts, documents, conveyances, notes, mortgages, deeds
of trust, assignments, security agreements, financing statements and assurances
as Lender shall from time to time reasonably require or deem advisable to carry

perfect any lien or security interest granted in any of the Loan Documents and
for the better assuring and confirming of all of Lender's rights, powers and
remedies under the Loan Documents.

      I. Attorneys' Fees. In the event of any judicial or other adversarial

Agreement by Borrower and Lender, any bid proposals or loan commitments with

      K. Forum Selection; Jurisdiction; Venue; Choice of Law. Borrower
acknowledges that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents were substantially
negotiated in the State of Arizona, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
were executed by Lender in the State of Arizona and executed and delivered by
Borrower in the State of Arizona, all payments under the Note will be delivered
in the State of Arizona and there are substantial contacts between the parties
and the transactions contemplated herein and the State of Arizona. For purposes
of any action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents, the parties hereto hereby expressly submit to the jurisdiction
of all federal and state courts located in the State of Arizona and Borrower
consents that it may be served with any process or paper by registered mail or
by personal service within or without the State of Arizona in accordance with
applicable law. Furthermore, Borrower waives and agrees not to assert in any
such action, suit or proceeding that it is not personally subject to the
jurisdiction of such courts, that the action, suit or proceeding is brought in
an inconvenient forum or that venue of the action, suit or proceeding is
improper. It is the intent of the parties hereto that all provisions of this
Agreement and the Note shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the
State of Arizona, without giving effect to its principles of conflicts of law.
To the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction finds Arizona law
inapplicable with respect to any provisions of this Agreement or the Note, then,
as to those provisions only, the laws of the state where the Premises is located
shall be deemed to apply. Nothing in this Section shall limit or restrict the
right of Lender to commence any proceeding in the federal or state courts
located in the state in which the Premises is located to the extent Lender deems
such proceeding necessary or advisable to exercise remedies available under this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

connection with any Transfer, Participation and/or Securitization. Upon any
unconditional assignment of Lender's entire right and interest hereunder, Lender
shall automatically be relieved, from and after the date of such assignment, of
liability for the performance of any obligation of Lender contained herein. This
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and permitted
assigns, including, without limitation, any United States trustee, any debtor in
possession or any trustee appointed from a private panel.

      N. Survival. Except for the conditions of Closing set forth in Section 4,

warranties, agreements, obligations and indemnities of Borrower and Lender set
forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive the Closing.

      O. Waiver of Jury Trial and Punitive, Consequential, Special and Indirect
Damages. BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY
WAIVE THE RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL
ISSUES PRESENTED IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY
EITHER OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGAINST THE OTHER OR ITS SUCCESSORS WITH RESPECT TO
ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY DOCUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR RELATED HERETO. THIS

complete a Transfer, Participation or Securitization with respect to the Note,
Mortgage and/or any of the other Loan Documents or any or all servicing rights

with any such Transfer, Participation and/or Securitization of the Note,
Mortgage and/or any of the other Loan Documents, or any or all servicing rights
with respect thereto, including, without limitation (i) providing such
documents, financial and other data, and other information and materials (the
"Disclosures") which would typically be required with respect to the Borrower
Parties by a purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant, investor or
rating agency involved with respect to such Transfer, Participation and/or
Securitization, as applicable; provided, however, the Borrower Parties shall not
be required to make Disclosures of any confidential information or any
information which has not previously been made public unless required by
applicable federal or state securities laws; and (ii) amending the terms of the
transactions evidenced by the Loan Documents to the extent necessary so as to
satisfy the requirements of purchasers, transferees, assignees, servicers,
participants, investors or selected rating agencies involved in any such
Transfer, Participation or Securitization, so long as such amendments would not
have a material adverse effect upon the Borrower Parties or the transactions
contemplated hereunder. Lender shall be responsible for preparing at its expense
any documents evidencing the amendments referred to in the preceding subitem
(ii).

      (3) Borrower consents to Lender providing the Disclosures, as well as any
other information which Lender may now have or hereafter acquire with respect to
the Premises or the financial condition of the Borrower Parties to each
purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant, investor or rating

Securitization, as applicable. Lender and Borrower (and their respective
Affiliates) shall each pay their own attorneys' fees and other out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in connection with the performance of their respective
obligations under this Section.

      (4) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents: (a) an Event of Default or a breach or default,
after the passage of all applicable notice and cure or grace periods, under any
Loan Document or Other Agreement which relates to a loan or sale/leaseback
transaction which has not been the subject of a Securitization, Participation or
Transfer shall not constitute an Event of Default or a breach or default, as
applicable, under any Loan Document or Other Agreement which relates to a loan
which has been the subject of a Securitization, Participation or Transfer; (b)
an Event of Default or a breach or default, after the passage of all applicable
notice and cure or grace periods, under any Loan Document or Other Agreement

an Event of Default or a breach or default, as applicable, under any Loan
Document or Other Agreement which relates to a loan which is included in any
other Loan Pool; (c) the Loan Documents and Other Agreements corresponding to
the loans in any Loan Pool shall not secure the obligations of any of the
Borrower Parties contained in any Loan Document or Other Agreement which does
not correspond to a loan in such Loan Pool; and (d) the Loan Documents and Other
Agreements which do not correspond to a loan in any Loan Pool shall not secure
the obligations of any of the Borrower Parties contained in any Loan Document or
Other Agreement which does correspond to a loan in such Loan Pool.

      Q. Estoppel Certificate. At any time, and from time to time, each party
agrees, promptly and in no event later than fifteen (15) days after a request
from the other party, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other party a
certificate in the form supplied by the other party, certifying: (a) to its
knowledge, whether there are then any existing defaults by it or the other party
in the performance of their respective obligations under this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents, and, if there are any such defaults, specifying the
nature and extent thereof; (b) that no notice of default has been given or
received by it under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which has
not been cured, except as to defaults specified in the certificate; (c) the
capacity of the person executing such certificate, and that such person is duly
authorized to execute the same on behalf of it; and (d) any other information
reasonably requested by the other party in connection with this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents.

      R. Substitute Guarantor. Borrower shall have the one-time right to
substitute an approved, replacement guarantor (the "Replacement Guarantor") for
Michael McDermott as a guarantor of the Loan pursuant to the Guaranty, provided
that the Replacement Guarantor shall (i) have a net worth at least equal to the
net worth of Michael McDermott at the time the Loan was approved by Lender, (ii)
have provided such documentation
