creditors' rights generally and to equitable principles. Such Mezzanine Loan
Documents are, as of the Closing Date, not subject to any right of rescission,
set-off, counterclaim or defense by Mezzanine Borrower or such Affiliate,
including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of
the Mezzanine Note, or any other Mezzanine Loan Documents, or the exercise of
any right thereunder, render the Mezzanine Loan Documents unenforceable against
Mezzanine Borrower or such Affiliate, in whole or in part, or subject to any
right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense by Mezzanine Borrower or
such Affiliate, including the defense of usury, and neither Mezzanine Borrower

          (n)  MANAGEMENT OF PROPERTY.

               (i)  The Property will be managed at all times by Manager
pursuant to a Management Agreement ("MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT") in form and
substance satisfactory to Mezzanine Lender, in its reasonable discretion. The
Manager will agree that the Management Agreement and all fees payable thereunder
is subject and subordinate in all respects to the Mortgage Loan and the
Mezzanine Loan. Subject to any restrictions contained in the Mortgage Loan
Documents, Mezzanine Borrower shall cause the Management Agreement to be
terminated at the Mezzanine Lender's request, (x) upon thirty (30) days' prior
written notice to Property Owner and the Manager: if the Manager commits any act
which would permit termination by Property Owner under any Management Agreement
unless cured within any grace period provided therein, or (y) immediately upon
written notice from Mezzanine Lender on the occurrence of an Event of Default.
In the event that Manager is terminated pursuant hereto, Mezzanine Borrower
shall cause Property Owner immediately to seek to appoint a replacement manager
acceptable to, and on terms and conditions acceptable to, Mezzanine Lender in
Mezzanine Lender's reasonable discretion and Mezzanine Borrower's failure to
obtain such an acceptable manager within 30 days of Mezzanine Lender's request
to terminate the Management Agreement shall constitute an immediate Event of
Default. Mezzanine Lender acknowledges that Insignia would qualify as an
acceptable replacement manager under this subsection (n)(i). Mezzanine Borrower
will cause any substitute Manager to enter into a Manager's Consent and
Subordination Agreement in form and substance acceptable to Mezzanine Lender.

               (ii) Any successor manager selected hereunder by Mezzanine Lender
to serve as manager shall be a reputable management company having at least
seven (7) years' experience in the management of commercial properties with a
use similar to that of the Property and in the jurisdiction in which the
Property is located.
               (iii) With the prior written consent of Mezzanine Lender, not to
be unreasonably withheld, the leasing of the Property may be sub-contracted to
an Entity owned and controlled by one or more of the Guarantors. Any such
arrangement shall be subject and subordinate to the Mezzanine Loan, and shall be
terminable by Mezzanine Lender immediately on the occurrence of an Event of
Default under this Agreement.

The obligations and liabilities of Mezzanine Borrower under this Section shall
survive the Maturity Date and the exercise by Mezzanine Lender of any of its
rights or remedies under the Mezzanine Loan Documents.

          Section 5.2.  LEASES. Mezzanine Borrower covenants and agrees that,
from the date hereof and until payment in full of the Indebtedness:

          (a)  Mezzanine Borrower covenants and agrees that, from the date
hereof and until payment in full of the Indebtedness, except as permitted in
this Section 5.2, Mezzanine Borrower shall not and shall not permit the Property
Owner, directly or through any Manager or agent or representative to enter into,
modify, amend, consent to the cancellation or surrender of (except by the tenant
under a Lease under a pre-existing right) or terminate (other than for an event
of default on the part of the Tenant) any Lease, whether now existing or
hereafter entered into, without the prior written consent of Mezzanine Lender,
which shall be granted or withheld in Mezzanine Lender's reasonable discretion
(and shall be deemed to have been granted if not withheld within seven (7) days
of Mezzanine Lender's receipt of a written request therefor specifically stating
in boldface type that such approval shall be deemed granted if not withheld by
Mezzanine Lender within such period and including without limitation all
information and details regarding the business and financial terms of the

tenant and any proposed guarantor of such lease, as shall be necessary for
Mezzanine Lender to evaluate the proposal). Mezzanine Lender shall provide to
Mezzanine Borrower a statement of the reasons for withholding its consent as to
any proposed lease. Provided that there shall not have occurred and be
continuing a monetary or material non-monetary Default or Event of Default,
Mezzanine Borrower may, without Mezzanine Lender's prior written consent, cause
Property Owner to enter into and amend or modify or permit the entering into,
amendment or modification of any Lease provided that such Lease (i) provides for
rental rates and terms comparable to market rates and terms (taking into account
the type and quality of the tenant) existing at the time such proposed Lease is
entered into, (ii) is an arms-length transaction with a bona fide, third party
tenant, (iii) is not a Major Lease and (iv) with respect to an amendment or
modification, is not a material amendment or modification of a Lease.

          (b)  Mezzanine Borrower shall not and shall not permit Property Owner
or any other Affiliate to request a disbursement under the Mortgage Loan
Documents from the accounts established therein for reserves for tenant
improvements or leasing commissions with respect to any Lease unless and until
such Lease has been approved by Mezzanine Lender or satisfies the requirements
of this Agreement regarding Leases for which such approval is deemed to have
been given or is not required under this Agreement. Mezzanine Borrower shall
notify Mezzanine Lender in writing of all disbursements requested and made from
such reserves.

          Section 5.3.   INSURANCE; COVERAGES. Mezzanine Borrower shall at all
times prior to payment or satisfaction in full of the Indebtedness, obtain and
maintain, or cause to be obtained and maintained in respect of Property Owner
and the Property the policies of insurance required by the Mortgage Loan
Documents, and such other coverages as are customarily maintained with respect
to office properties in the market in which the Property is located
(collectively, the "INSURANCE"), which policies, to the extent applicable in
Mezzanine Lender's

                                       37
<Page>

discretion, shall be issued by insurance companies, provide coverages, and
contain terms reasonably satisfactory to Mezzanine Lender.

          The Insurance shall provide for at least thirty (30) days' prior
written notice to Mezzanine Lender in the event of policy cancellation and/or
material change.

          Certificates evidencing such Insurance and naming Mezzanine Lender and
Mezzanine Borrower as loss payees and additional insureds shall be delivered to
Mezzanine Lender prior to the disbursement of funds to Mezzanine Borrower.

          5.3.1  CASUALTY; PROCEEDS OF REQUIRED INSURANCE. Mezzanine Borrower
shall give Mezzanine Lender prompt notice of any loss or damage to the Property
in excess of $50,000.00 and, subject to the rights of the Mortgage Lender under
the Mortgage Loan Documents:

          (a)  In the case of any loss or damage covered by any Insurance,
Mezzanine Lender is hereby authorized (i) if an Event of Default shall have
occurred or, if no Event of Default shall have occurred but Mezzanine Borrower
or Property Owner fails to settle and adjust any claim within ninety (90)
Business Days after such casualty has occurred, to settle and adjust any claim
under such Insurance without the consent of Mezzanine Borrower or Property
Owner, or (ii) if no Event of Default has occurred, to allow Mezzanine Borrower
or Property Owner within ninety (90) Business Days after such casualty to settle
and adjust such claim with, if any settlement may reasonably be anticipated to
result in proceeds in excess of $500,000, the consent of Mezzanine Lender, not
to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that in either case Mezzanine
Lender shall, and is hereby authorized to, collect and receive any such
insurance proceeds, subject, however, to the rights of Mortgage Lender under the
Mortgage Loan Documents. The reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
Mezzanine Lender in the adjustment and collection of such proceeds of Insurance
shall be additional Indebtedness of Mezzanine Borrower, and shall be reimbursed
to Mezzanine Lender upon demand or, at Mezzanine Lender's option, in the event
and to the extent sufficient proceeds are available, deducted by Mezzanine
Lender from such proceeds of Insurance prior to any other application thereof.
Each insurance company which has issued Insurance is hereby authorized and
directed to make payment for all losses covered by such Insurance to Mezzanine
Lender alone, subject to the provisions of the Mortgage Loan Documents, and not
to Mezzanine Lender and Mezzanine Borrower or Property Owner jointly. Mezzanine
Borrower agrees to execute and cause Property Owner to execute all documents and
make all deliveries required in order to permit adjustment and payment of
insurance proceeds as provided above.

          (b)  Mezzanine Lender shall, in its sole discretion, apply the
proceeds of Insurance received by Mezzanine Lender consequent upon any casualty
either (i) to reduce the Indebtedness, in such order or manner as Mezzanine
Lender may elect; or (ii) at Mezzanine Lender's election, to reimburse Mezzanine
Borrower or Property Owner for or to pay the costs of restoring, repairing,
replacing or rebuilding (collectively, a "RESTORATION") the loss or damage
caused by such casualty, in accordance with and subject to the conditions
contained in the provisions of subdivision (f) hereof. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Mezzanine Lender agrees to permit the proceeds of Insurance to be
applied toward the cost of Restoration if (i) the Mortgage Lender is permitting
such proceeds to be so applied toward Restoration in accordance with the

                                       38
<Page>

Mortgage Loan Documents, and (ii) the requirements of subdivision (f) below are
otherwise satisfied.

          (c)  Whether or not proceeds of Insurance are made available to
Mezzanine Borrower or Property Owner or are sufficient for such purposes,
Mezzanine Borrower hereby covenants to, or to cause Property Owner to, promptly
after such casualty and at Mezzanine Borrower's or Property Owner's sole cost
and expense, commence and thereafter diligently proceed to Restore the
Improvements, to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same
character as prior to such loss or damage, if allowed by law, in accordance with
all Legal Requirements and plans, specifications and procedures to be first
submitted to and approved by Mezzanine Lender, and Mezzanine Borrower or
Property Owner shall pay all costs of such Restoration.

          (d)  Any portion of the proceeds of Insurance remaining after payment
in full of the Indebtedness shall be paid to Mezzanine Borrower or Property
Owner or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction.

          (e)  Subject to the provisions of the Mortgage Loan Documents, all
proceeds of the Insurance shall be paid and disbursed by Mezzanine Lender in
accordance with the following: (i) if paid in monthly installments and provided
that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, first to Mezzanine
Lender for any amounts owed by Mezzanine Borrower to Mezzanine Lender under the
Mezzanine Loan Documents, then to Mezzanine Borrower (as if such proceeds were
Receipts), (ii) if paid in a lump sum, and provided that no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, into a segregated reserve account in the sole
dominion and control of Mezzanine Lender for application in monthly installments
(equal to such lump sum divided by the aggregate number of months on account of
which paid) in the manner described in subdivision (b) above.

          (f)  Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is then
continuing, proceeds of Insurance that Mezzanine Lender elects to apply to
Restoration of the Property in accordance with Section 5.3.1(b)(ii) hereof shall
be disbursed from time to time (but not more often than monthly) upon Mezzanine
Lender being furnished with (i) evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mezzanine
Lender from an independent architect or other Person, in any case, approved by
Mezzanine Lender of the estimated cost of completion of the Restoration, (ii) a
certification from an independent architect or general contractor satisfactory
to Mezzanine Lender stating that the Restoration is reasonably likely to be
substantially completed on or before the date which is one year prior to the
Maturity Date, (iii) cash sufficient in addition to the proceeds of Insurance,
to complete and fully pay for the completion of the Restoration, based on the
cost estimate referenced in clause (i) above, (iv) a request from Mezzanine
Borrower, dated not more than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the proposed
application of such payment, requesting such payment or reimbursement and
setting forth the Restoration work which is in the subject of such request, the
parties which performed such work, and the actual cost thereof, and certifying
that such work and materials are free and clear of Liens, and (v) such
architect's certificates, waivers of lien, contractor's sworn statements, title
insurance endorsements, plats of survey and such other evidences of cost,
payment and performance as Mezzanine Lender may reasonably require and approve.
Mezzanine Lender may, in all events, require that all plans and specifications
for any such Restoration be submitted to and approved by Mezzanine Lender and

                                       39
<Page>

that all required Permits be obtained prior to commencement of Restoration work.
Except as provided below, any cash provided in accordance with clause (iii)
above shall be applied as if such cash were proceeds of Insurance. No payment
made prior to the final completion of the Restoration shall exceed ninety-five
percent (95%) of the value of the Restoration work performed or materials
delivered, as applicable, from time to time, as such value shall be determined
by Mezzanine Lender in its reasonable judgment. Funds other than proceeds of
Insurance shall be disbursed prior to disbursement of such proceeds, except as
may otherwise be provided herein; and at all times the undisbursed balance of
such proceeds, together with cash furnished to Mezzanine Lender in accordance
with clause (iii) above to pay the cost of completion of the Restoration, shall
be at least sufficient in the reasonable judgment of Mezzanine Lender to pay the
entire unpaid cost of the completion of the Restoration, free and clear of all
Liens or claims for Lien. In addition to all other conditions contained in this
Section 5.3.1(f), final payment of all proceeds of Insurance remaining with
Mezzanine Lender shall be made upon receipt by Mezzanine Lender of a
certification by an independent architect or contractor approved by Mezzanine
Lender as to the completion of the Restoration substantially in accordance with
the submitted plans and specifications, and the filing of a notice of completion
(if such filing is required by applicable Legal Requirements). (Any surplus
which may remain out of proceeds of Insurance (or cash provided pursuant to
clause (iii) above) held by Mezzanine Lender after payment of such costs of
Restoration shall be applied by Mezzanine Lender in accordance with the terms of
the Mortgage Loan Documents or shall be returned to Mezzanine Borrower, after
payment of all amounts then due under the Mezzanine Loan Documents). If there
shall have occurred an Event of Default while Mezzanine Lender is holding funds
for Restoration (including for these purposes any cash deposited pursuant to
clause (ii) above), Mezzanine Lender may at its sole option apply such funds
against the Indebtedness in such order or manner as Mezzanine Lender may elect.
Mezzanine Borrower shall pay, from time to time, within five (5) Business Days
after demand therefor, the fees and expenses of any consultant hired by
Mezzanine Lender to review the progress of the Restoration and inspect the work
of Restoration, which consultant's approval shall be required for any
disbursement to be made. Mezzanine Lender shall not be obligated to see to the
proper application of funds disbursed to Mezzanine Borrower pursuant hereto,
whether pursuant to the above conditions or upon waiver thereof.

          (g)  Notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary, in the
event the Property is being restored by the Property Owner pursuant to the
Mortgage Loan Documents, Mezzanine Lender shall agree to the release of the
proceeds for Restoration of the Property pursuant to the terms and conditions of
the Mortgage Loan Documents, subject to Mezzanine Lender's rights to right to
receive and approve all deliverables set forth in the preceding subsection (f).

          Section 5.4.   CONDEMNATION AND EMINENT DOMAIN.

          Subject to the prior rights of the Mortgage Lender under the Mortgage
Loan Documents, any and all awards (the "AWARDS") heretofore or hereafter made
or to be made by any Governmental Authority for the taking by condemnation or
eminent domain, of all or any part of the Property (including any award from the
United States government at any time after the allowance of a claim thereof), or
the proceeds from a transfer in lieu of such condemnation or eminent domain, are
hereby assigned by Mezzanine Borrower and Property Owner to Mezzanine

                                       40
<Page>

Lender, which Awards Mezzanine Lender is hereby authorized to collect and
receive from the condemnation authorities. Mezzanine Lender is hereby authorized
to give appropriate receipts and acquaintances therefor and Mezzanine Borrower
and Property Owner hereby irrevocably appoint Mezzanine Lender Mezzanine
Borrower's and Property Owner's attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to
collect such Awards. Mezzanine Borrower shall give Mezzanine Lender prompt
notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation of eminent
domain proceeds affecting all or any part of the Property and shall deliver to
Mezzanine Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with any such
proceedings. Mezzanine Borrower further agrees to make, execute and deliver to
Mezzanine Lender, at any time upon request, any and all further assignments and
other instruments deemed reasonably necessary by Mezzanine Lender for the
purpose of validly and sufficiently assigning all Awards and other compensation
heretofore and hereafter made to Mezzanine Borrower or Property Owner upon any
taking, either permanent or temporary, under any such proceeding and all
proceeds paid from a sale in lieu of such taking, and to facilitate Mezzanine
Lender's collection and receipt of the same. If, notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions, any Award or other compensation described above is nonetheless paid
to Mezzanine Borrower, Mezzanine Borrower shall hold or cause Property Owner to
hold such monies in trust for the benefit of Mezzanine Lender or Property Owner,
and Mezzanine Borrower and Property Owner shall immediately pay the same to
Mezzanine Lender. The expenses incurred by Mezzanine Lender in the collection
and administration of any Award, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements, shall be additional Indebtedness, and shall be reimbursed to
Mezzanine Lender upon demand or, at Mezzanine Lender's option, in the event and
to the extent sufficient proceeds are available, shall be deducted by Mezzanine
Lender from said proceeds prior to any other application hereof. Mezzanine
Borrower may not and shall not cause or suffer Property Owner to settle or
compromise any claim for or right to receive any Award or its rights under any
proceeding with respect thereto without the prior written consent of Mezzanine
Lender. Notwithstanding any taking, Mezzanine Borrower shall continue to pay the
Mezzanine Loan with interest thereon at the time and in the manner provided for
in the Mezzanine Note and the other Mezzanine Loan Documents and the
Indebtedness shall not be reduced by reason of such taking (or transfer in lieu
thereof) unless and until any Award shall have been actually received and
applied by Mezzanine Lender to such Indebtedness and then only to such extent.
Mezzanine Lender shall not be limited to any interest paid on the Award by the
condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest
at the rates set forth herein and in the Mezzanine Note. Notwithstanding
anything stated herein to the contrary, in the event the Property is being
restored by the Property Owner pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Documents,
Mezzanine Lender shall agree to the release of the Award for restoration of the
Property pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Mortgage Loan Documents,
subject to Mezzanine Lender's rights to right to receive and approve all
deliverables that are required to be provided to the Mortgage Lender under the
terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents.

covenants, provisions or conditions of this Agreement, the Mezzanine Note, or
the other Mezzanine Loan Documents, not otherwise referred to in this Section
7.1, for twenty (20) Business Days after written notice to Mezzanine Borrower

default cannot reasonably be cured within such twenty (20) Business Day period
and Mezzanine Borrower shall have commenced to cure such default within such
five day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the

Event of Default to occur under the Mortgage Loan Documents.

          Section 7.2.  REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers and other
remedies available to Mezzanine Lender against Mezzanine Borrower or its
Affiliates under this Agreement, the Mezzanine Note, or any of the other
Mezzanine Loan Documents, or at law or in equity may be exercised by Mezzanine
Lender at any time and from time to time (including, without limitation,

                                       46
<Page>

the right to accelerate and declare the outstanding principal amount, unpaid
interest, Default Rate interest, Late Charges, and any other amounts owing by
Mezzanine Borrower to be immediately due and payable), without notice or demand,
whether or not all or any portion of the Indebtedness shall be declared due and
payable, and whether or not Mezzanine Lender shall have commenced any
foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and
remedies under any of the Mezzanine Loan Documents with respect to all or any
portion of the Collateral. Any such actions taken by Mezzanine Lender shall be
cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly,
successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Mezzanine
Lender may determine in its discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of
Mezzanine Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or
in the other Mezzanine Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained to the
contrary herein, the outstanding principal amount, unpaid interest, Default Rate
interest, Late Charges, and any other amounts owing by Mezzanine Borrower shall
be accelerated and immediately due and payable, without any election by
Mezzanine Lender upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section
7.1(viii) or Section 7.1(ix). Following acceleration of the Mezzanine Loan by
Mezzanine Lender in response to an Event of Default, Mezzanine Borrower shall
not have the right to cure such Event of Default.

          Section 7.3.   REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. The rights, powers and remedies of
Mezzanine Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of
any other right, power or remedy which Mezzanine Lender may have against
Mezzanine Borrower or Guarantor or pursuant to this Agreement or the other
Mezzanine Loan Documents executed by or with respect to Mezzanine Borrower, or
existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Mezzanine Lender's rights, powers and
remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in
such order as Mezzanine Lender may determine in Mezzanine Lender's discretion.
No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an
Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be
construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be
exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of
any Default or Event of Default shall not be construed to be a waiver of any
subsequent Default or Event of Default or to impair any remedy, right or power
consequent thereon. Any and all of Mezzanine Lender's rights with respect to the
Collateral shall continue unimpaired, and Mezzanine Borrower shall be and remain
obligated in accordance with the terms hereof, notwithstanding (i) the release
or substitution of Collateral at any time, or of any rights or interest therein
or (ii) any delay, extension of time, renewal, compromise or other indulgence
granted by Mezzanine Lender in the event of any Default or Event of Default with
respect to the Collateral or otherwise hereunder.

          Section 7.4.   MEZZANINE LENDER'S RIGHT TO PERFORM. If Mezzanine
Borrower fails to perform any covenant or obligation contained herein and such
failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) Business Days after Mezzanine
Borrower's receipt of written notice thereof from Mezzanine Lender, without in
any way limiting Section 7.1 hereof, Mezzanine Lender may, but shall have no
obligation to, itself perform, or cause performance of, such covenant or
obligation, and the expenses of Mezzanine Lender incurred in connection
therewith shall be payable by Mezzanine Borrower to Mezzanine Lender upon
demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mezzanine Lender shall have no obligation
to send notice to Mezzanine Borrower of any such failure.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

          Section 8.1.  SURVIVAL. Subject to Section 4.2, this Agreement and all
covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the
certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the execution and delivery
of this Agreement and the execution and delivery by Mezzanine Borrower to
Mezzanine Lender of the Mezzanine Note, and shall continue in full force and
effect so long as any portion of the Indebtedness is outstanding and unpaid.
Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such
reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party.
All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement contained, by or on
behalf of Mezzanine Borrower, shall inure to the benefit of the respective
successors and assigns of Mezzanine Lender. Nothing in this Agreement or in any
other Mezzanine Loan Document, express or implied, shall give to any Person
other than the parties and the holder(s) of the Mezzanine Note, and the other
Mezzanine Loan Documents, and their legal representatives, successors and
assigns, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim hereunder.

          Section 8.2.  MEZZANINE LENDER'S DISCRETION. Whenever pursuant to this
Agreement or any other Mezzanine Loan Document, Mezzanine Lender exercises any
right, option or election given to Mezzanine Lender to approve or disapprove, or
consent or withhold consent, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to
Mezzanine Lender or is to be in Mezzanine Lender's discretion, the decision of
Mezzanine Lender to approve or disapprove, consent or withhold consent, or to
decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory or
acceptable or not acceptable to Mezzanine Lender in Mezzanine Lender's
discretion, shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in
the sole and absolute discretion of Mezzanine Lender.

          Section 8.3.  GOVERNING LAW. 1. This Agreement and the obligations
arising hereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
laws of the State of New Jersey applicable to contracts made and intended to be
performed in such State, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of
laws, and any applicable law of the United States of America. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, Mezzanine Borrower hereby unconditionally and
irrevocably waives any claim to assert that the law of any other jurisdiction
governs this Agreement and the Mezzanine Note, and this Agreement and the
Mezzanine Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of New Jersey, without giving effect to principles of
conflicts of laws.

assign in whole or in part this Agreement and/or any of the other Mezzanine Loan

Guarantor shall cooperate with Mezzanine Lender in the making of such
assignments and transfers.

          Section 8.10.  SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective
and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be

invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement.

          Section 8.11.  PREFERENCES. Mezzanine Lender shall have the continuing
and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by
Mezzanine Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Mezzanine Borrower
hereunder. To the extent Mezzanine Borrower makes a payment or payments to

proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee,
receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law,

proceeds had not been received by Mezzanine Lender.

          Section 8.12.  WAIVER OF NOTICE. Neither Mezzanine Borrower nor any of

of notice by Mezzanine Lender to Mezzanine Borrower or an Affiliate thereof and
except with respect to matters for which Mezzanine Borrower and any applicable
Affiliate are not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive
the giving of notice. Mezzanine Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to
receive any notice from Mezzanine Lender with respect to any matter for which
this Agreement or the other Mezzanine Loan Documents does not specifically and
expressly provide for the giving of notice by Mezzanine Lender to Mezzanine
Borrower.

          Section 8.13.  REMEDIES OF MEZZANINE BORROWER. In the event that a
claim or adjudication is made that Mezzanine Lender or its agents have acted
unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under
this Agreement, the Mezzanine Note, or the other Mezzanine Loan Documents,
Mezzanine Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act
reasonably or promptly, then in such event Mezzanine Borrower's sole remedy
shall be to commence an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory
judgment.

          Section 8.14.  FULL RECOURSE. The Mezzanine Loan and Mezzanine
Borrower's obligations thereunder and with respect thereto shall be fully

<Page>

          (a)  The Obligations of Mezzanine Borrower pursuant to the Mezzanine
Loan Documents shall constitute general obligations of Mezzanine Borrower.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement or in any other Mezzanine Loan Documents, except as provided otherwise
in this Section 8.15, no direct or indirect partner, member, shareholder,
principal, Affiliate, employee, officer, director, agent or representative of
Mezzanine Borrower (each, a "RELATED PARTY") shall have any personal liability
for (a) the payment of any sum of money which is or may become payable hereunder
or under the Mezzanine Note or any other Mezzanine Loan Documents, including,
without limitation, the repayment of the Indebtedness, or (b) the performance or
discharge of any covenants, obligations or undertakings of Mezzanine Borrower
hereunder or under any Mezzanine Loan Document, and no monetary or deficiency
judgment shall be sought or enforced against any Related Party with respect
thereto, except that Mezzanine Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action
for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding against
any Related Party to enable Mezzanine Lender to enforce and realize upon its
interests in the Collateral; provided, however, that except as specifically
provided herein any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
enforceable against the Related Parties only to the extent of Mezzanine
Borrower's interest in the Property and the Collateral, and Mezzanine Lender
agrees that it shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency against any
Related Party in any such action or proceeding under, or by reason of, or in
connection with this Agreement, the Mezzanine Note, or any other Mezzanine Loan
Document. The provisions of this Section 8.15 shall not, however, (i) impair the
validity of the obligations of Mezzanine Borrower or in any way affect or impair
any Lien or the right of Mezzanine Lender to enforce any and all rights and
remedies under and by virtue of the Mezzanine Note, this Agreement, or any other
Mezzanine Loan Document including, without limitation, naming Mezzanine Borrower
as a party defendant in any action, or limit Mezzanine Lender from pursuing or
seeking to enforce the rights of Mezzanine Lender against any third parties,
including the Guarantor or any other guarantor, indemnitor or surety under the
Recourse Guaranty or any other guaranty or indemnity delivered in connection
with this Agreement, the Mezzanine Note, or otherwise in connection with the
Mezzanine Loan, (ii) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any
obligation evidenced or secured by this Agreement, the Mezzanine Note or any of
the other Mezzanine Loan Documents, (iii) impair the enforcement of the (a)
security interests in respect of the Accounts, or (b) security interests and
rights and remedies of Mezzanine Lender described in the Equity Pledge Agreement
against the pledgors thereunder, or (iv) constitute a waiver of any right that
Mezzanine Lender may have under Sections 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the
Mezzanine Loan or to require that all Collateral shall continue to secure all of
the Mezzanine Loan owing to Mezzanine Lender.

          (b)  In addition to the obligations of Mezzanine Borrower to pay the
Indebtedness, Mezzanine Borrower and Guarantor shall be fully and personally,
jointly and severally, liable for any liabilities, costs, losses (including,
without limitation, any reduction in value of the Property or any other
Collateral or the loss of any such Collateral or Mezzanine Lender's security
interest therein), damages, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and costs, and court costs, if any), or claims (such
liabilities, costs, losses, damages, expenses and claims, collectively, the
"RECOURSE OBLIGATIONS") suffered or incurred by Mezzanine Lender (or any
Indemnified Party) by reason of or in connection with (i) fraud, material
misrepresentations and waste; or (ii) any rents, issues or profits being
collected by or on behalf of Property Owner more than one (1) month in advance
of their due dates; or (iii) any

                                       52
<Page>

misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other
payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease
termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, or other sums of a
similar nature or any failure to pay to Mezzanine Lender Net Liquidation
Proceeds or Excess Net Operating Cash Flow as required under this Agreement; or
(iv) personality or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of
Property Owner and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or
functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; or (v) failure to pay
taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency and arising prior to a
foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or to pay charges for labor,
materials or other charges incurred by Property Owner or its agents which can
create liens on any portion of the Property or the Collateral and any sums
expended by Mezzanine Lender in the performance of or compliance with the
obligations of Mezzanine Borrower under the Mezzanine Loan Documents, including,
without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard
insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the
benefit of the Property and arising prior to a foreclosure or an assignment
in-lieu of foreclosure; or (vi) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or Transfer of
the Property (except that entry into Leases for occupancy of space in the
Improvements shall not constitute Transfers for the purposes of this Section
8.15(b)) or the Collateral or encumbrance of the Property or the Collateral; or
(vii) the failure of Property Owner or Mezzanine Borrower or any of their
respective general partners to maintain its status as a single purpose,
bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents, the Mortgage

state bankruptcy or insolvency law, or soliciting or causing to be solicited
petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition from any Person; or (x) any
Related Party controlled, directly or indirectly, by Mezzanine Borrower,
Guarantor or Property Owner or by any Affiliate which controls, directly or
indirectly, Mezzanine Borrower, Guarantor or Property Owner consenting to or
acquiescing in or joining in an application for the appointment of a custodian,
receiver, trustee or examiner for Mezzanine Borrower or Property Owner or any of
their respective general partners or any portion of the Collateral (unless such
action is at the request of Mezzanine Lender or Mortgage Lender); or (xi)
Mezzanine Borrower or Property Owner or any of their respective general partners
making an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admitting, in writing or
in any legal proceeding, its insolvency or inability to pay its debts as they
become due; or (xii) reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, court costs and other
expenses incurred by Mezzanine Lender in connection with enforcement of
Mezzanine Borrower's or any Guarantor's personal liability as set forth herein;

thereon.

          (c)  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.15(b) or the Recourse
Guaranty to the contrary, in the event that any Guarantor does not vote for,
approve or otherwise acquiesce in or join in any of the actions set forth in
Section 8.15(b)(viii) through and including

                                       53

effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

          Section 8.17.  OFFSETS, COUNTERCLAIMS AND DEFENSES. Any assignee of
Mezzanine Lender's interest in and to this Agreement, the Mezzanine Note, and
the other Mezzanine Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all
offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to the Mezzanine Loan,
this Agreement, the Mezzanine Note, and the other Mezzanine Loan Documents which
Mezzanine Borrower or any of its Affiliates may otherwise have against any
assignor, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or
asserted by Mezzanine Borrower or any of its Affiliates in any action or
proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this Agreement, the Mezzanine Note,
and other Mezzanine Loan Documents and any such right to interpose or assert any
such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding
is hereby expressly waived by Mezzanine Borrower, Guarantor and Property Owner.

          Section 8.18.  NO JOINT VENTURE OR PARTNERSHIP. Mezzanine Borrower and
Mezzanine Lender intend that the relationship created hereunder be solely that
of borrower and lender. Nothing herein is intended to create a joint venture,

and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling
of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the
administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to
defeat, reduce or affect the right of Mezzanine Lender under the Mezzanine Loan
Documents to a sale of the Collateral for the collection of the Indebtedness

Lender to the payment of the Indebtedness in preference to every other claimant
whatsoever.

          Section 8.20.  WAIVER OF COUNTERCLAIM. Each of Mezzanine Borrower and
Property Owner hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than
compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against Mezzanine
Borrower or Property Owner by Mezzanine Lender or Mezzanine Lender's agents. The
provisions hereof shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of the right to
bring any such counterclaim in a separate, unrelated proceeding, which
proceeding shall comply with this Agreement.

          Section 8.21.  CONFLICT; CONSTRUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. In the event of
any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the
Mezzanine Note, or any of the other Mezzanine Loan Documents, the provisions of
this Agreement shall prevail. The

                                       54
<Page>

parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by counsel in connection
with the negotiation and drafting of the Mezzanine Loan Documents and that the
Mezzanine Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing
their meaning against the party which drafted same.

Mezzanine Lender hereby represent that they have dealt with no financial
advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in

Mezzanine Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities,
costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or arising from a claim by

Borrower in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. Mezzanine
Lender hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Mezzanine Borrower harmless from and
against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any
way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person other than Broker, that

transactions contemplated herein. Mezzanine Borrower agrees to pay Broker any
commission or fee payable to Broker in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement pursuant to separate agreement. The provisions of
this Section shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and
the repayment of the Indebtedness.

          Section 8.23.  COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an

instrument.

reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs, expenses, and disbursements of Mezzanine
Lender and its attorneys, local counsel, accountants and other contractors in
connection with (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any
amendment, waiver or consent relating to any of the Mezzanine Loan Documents
requested by Mezzanine Borrower, and (ii) the preservation of rights under and
enforcement of the Mezzanine Loan Documents and the documents and instruments
referred to therein, including, any restructuring or rescheduling of the
Indebtedness.

          Section 8.25.  BANKRUPTCY WAIVER. Each of Mezzanine Borrower and
Property Owner hereby agrees that, in consideration of the recitals and mutual
covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the

debtors, (iv) has sought or consents to or acquiesces in the appointment of any
trustee, receiver, conservator or liquidator or (v) is the subject of any order,
judgment or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction approving a
petition filed against such party for any reorganization, arrangement,
composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any
present or future federal or state act or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency
or other

                                       55
<Page>

relief for debtors, the automatic stay provided by the Federal Bankruptcy Code
and any other such statute shall be modified and annulled as to Mezzanine
Lender, so as to permit Mezzanine Lender to exercise any and all of its rights
and remedies, upon request of Mezzanine Lender made on notice to Mezzanine
Borrower or Property Owner and any other party in interest but without the need
of further proof or hearing. Neither Mezzanine Borrower nor Property Owner nor
any other Affiliate of Mezzanine Borrower shall contest the enforceability of
this Section.

          Section 8.26.  ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, together with the
Exhibits hereto and the other Mezzanine Loan Documents constitutes the entire
agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained
in this Agreement, the Exhibits hereto and the other Mezzanine Loan Documents
and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the
parties.

          Section 8.27.  DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION. If Mezzanine Lender
determines at any time to sell, transfer or assign the Mezzanine Note, this
Mezzanine Loan Agreement and any other Mezzanine Loan Document and any or all
servicing rights with respect thereto, or to grant participations therein,
Mezzanine Lender may forward to each purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer,
participant or investor in such securities (collectively, the "INVESTOR") and
each prospective Investor, all documents and information which Mezzanine Lender
now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Mezzanine Loan, Mezzanine
Borrower, Property Owner, any of their respective general partners, any
guarantor, any indemnitor and the Property, which shall have been furnished by
or on behalf of Mezzanine Borrower, Property Owner, any of their respective
general partners, any guarantor, any indemnitor, or any party to any Mezzanine
Loan Document, or otherwise furnished in connection with the Mezzanine Loan, as
Mezzanine Lender in its discretion determines to be necessary or desirable.

          Section 8.28.  LIMITATION OF INTEREST. It is the intention of
Mezzanine Borrower and Mezzanine Lender to conform strictly to applicable laws
governing the maximum rate of interest and other charges payable, including
without limitation usury laws. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated
hereby would violate any such applicable law, then, in that event,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Mezzanine Loan Document, it is
agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes
interest under applicable law that is taken, reserved, contracted for, charged
or received under any Mezzanine Loan Document or otherwise in connection with
the Mezzanine Loan shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of
interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited to
principal by Mezzanine Lender (or if the Mezzanine Loan shall have been paid in
full, refunded to Mezzanine Borrower); and (ii) in the event that maturity of
the Mezzanine Loan is accelerated by reason of an election by Mezzanine Lender
resulting from any default hereunder or otherwise, or in the event of any
required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes
interest may never include more than the maximum amount of interest allowed by
applicable law, and any interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest
allowed by applicable law, if any, provided for in the Mezzanine Loan Documents
or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration
or prepayment and, if theretofore prepaid, shall be credited to principal (or if
the principal portion of the Mezzanine Loan and any other amounts not
constituting interest shall have been paid in full, refunded to Mezzanine
Borrower.)

                                       56
<Page>

          In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any
specific contingency exceeds the maximum amount allowed by applicable law,
Mezzanine Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law (a)
exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (b) amortize,
prorate, allocate and spread, in equal parts, the total amount of interest
throughout the entire contemplated term of the Mezzanine Loan so that the
interest rate is uniform throughout the entire term of the Mezzanine Loan;
provided, that if the Mezzanine Loan is paid and performed in full prior to the
end of the full contemplated term hereof, and if the interest received for the
actual period of existence thereof exceeds the maximum amount allowed by
applicable law, Mezzanine Lender shall refund to Mezzanine Borrower the amount
of such excess, and in such event, Mezzanine Lender shall not be subject to any
penalties provided by any laws for contracting for, charging or receiving
interest in excess of the maximum amount allowed by applicable law.

          Section 8.29.  INDEMNIFICATION. In addition to any other
indemnifications provided for herein or in the other Mezzanine Loan Documents,
Mezzanine Borrower shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Mezzanine
Lender and each of its Affiliates and their respective successors and assigns
(including their respective trustees, officers, directors, partners, employees,
attorneys, accountants, professionals and agents and each other person, if any,
controlling Mezzanine Lender or any of its affiliates within the meaning of
either Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Section 20 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) (each, including Mezzanine
Lender, an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") from and against all liabilities, obligations,
claims, and, damages, penalties, causes of action, losses, fines, costs,
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements) imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified
Party (other than by reason of such Indemnified Party's default under the
Mezzanine Loan Documents or gross negligence or willful misconduct, as
determined to have occurred pursuant to the final nonappealable decision of a
court of competent jurisdiction) by reason of (i) ownership or holding of this
Agreement, the other Mezzanine Loan Documents, the Property or any of them or
any interest therein or any other Collateral, including any funds deposited with
Mezzanine Lender, (ii) receipt and application of any Receipts or an Indemnified
Party's payment or non-payment of costs and expenses of operating the Property,
(iii) any accident, injury to or death of Persons or loss of or damage to
property occurring on or about the Property or any part thereof or on the
adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets
or ways, (iv) any design, construction, alteration, operation, maintenance, use,
nonuse or condition of the Property or any part thereof or on adjoining
sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or ways,
(v) any failure on the part of Mezzanine Borrower or any of its Affiliates,
including Property Owner, to perform or comply with any of the terms of this
Agreement or any other Mezzanine Loan Document, (vi) performance of any labor or
services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the
Property or any part thereof, (vii) any failure of the Property to comply with
any Legal Requirements, (viii) the presence in, at or under the Property of any
Hazardous Substances, or any release or discharge on or from the Property of any
Hazardous Substances, or any release or discharge on or from the Property of any
Hazardous Substances, occurring on or after the Closing Date, (ix) any
representation or warranty made in the Mezzanine Note, this Agreement or any of
the other Mezzanine Loan Documents being false or misleading in any material
respect as of the date such representation or warranty was made, (x) except to
the extent any such claims are made solely as a result of any dealings between
Mezzanine Lender and any broker, finder or similar person claiming to be
entitled to a

                                       57
<Page>

commission in connection with the Mezzanine Loan, and with whom Mezzanine
Borrower has had no dealings in connection with the Mezzanine Loan, any claim by
brokers, finders or similar Persons claiming to be entitled to a commission in
connection with any Lease or other action involving the Property or any part
thereof, (xi) the claims of any Tenant of any portion of the Property or any
person acting through or out of any Tenant or otherwise arising out of or as a
consequence of any Lease or occupancy right, (xii) any claim by Mezzanine
Borrower or any Affiliate of Mezzanine Borrower that the relationship of
Mezzanine Lender and Mezzanine Borrower is other than that of lender and
borrower, or (xiii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other
Mezzanine Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and
the performance of the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder
or thereunder. Any amounts payable to any Indemnified Party by reason of the
application of this Section 8.29 shall become immediately due and payable and
shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date loss or damage is
sustained by any Indemnified Party until paid. The indemnifications set forth in
this Section 8.29 shall not be applicable to the extent (1) occasioned, arising
and caused as the result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Mezzanine
Lender, its nominee or wholly owned subsidiary or their respective employees or
agents and irrespective of whether occurring prior to or subsequent to the date
upon which Mezzanine Lender, its nominee or wholly owned subsidiary acquires
possession of any interest in the Property by foreclosure, a sale of the
Collateral, or any of them, acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of
foreclosure or sale or otherwise, as determined to have occurred pursuant to the
final nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction or (2) as to
matters specific and relating solely to the Property, occasioned, arising and
caused as the result of any act of any Person (other than an act of Mezzanine
Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or an act of any Governmental Authority,
including, without limitation, any change in any applicable law) and occurring
subsequent to the earlier to occur of (A) the date of payment and performance in
full of the Indebtedness and (B) the date upon which Mezzanine Lender, its
nominee or wholly owned subsidiary acquires ownership of the Collateral by
foreclosure, a sale of the Collateral, acceptance of a deed or assignment in
lieu of foreclosure or sale or otherwise of the Collateral or (3) as to matters
(other than environmental matters) specific and relating solely to the Property,
occasioned, arising and caused as the result of any act of any Person and
occurring prior to the date hereof. The obligations and liabilities of Mezzanine
Borrower under this Section 8.29 shall survive any termination, satisfaction, or
assignment of this Agreement and the exercise by Mezzanine Lender of any of its
rights or remedies hereunder, including, without limitation, the acquisition of
the Collateral by foreclosure or a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, or
otherwise.

          In case any claim, action or proceeding (a "CLAIM") is brought against
any Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnification may be sought by such
Indemnified party pursuant to this Section 8.29, such Indemnified Party shall
give notice thereof to Mezzanine Borrower; provided, however, that the failure
of such Indemnified Party to so notify Mezzanine Borrower shall not limit or
affect such Indemnified Party's rights to be indemnified pursuant to this
Section 8.29 hereof, except to the extent such delay shall materially and
adversely prejudice Mezzanine Borrower's defense of such Claim. Upon receipt of
such notice of Claim, Mezzanine Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense,
diligently defend any such Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Party. In the alternative, the Indemnified Parties may elect to
conduct their own defense through counsel of their own choosing (which will be a
single counsel, unless the interests of the Indemnified Parties are potentially
adverse, as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Indemnified Parties),
and at the expense of

                                       58
<Page>

Mezzanine Borrower, if (i) the Indemnified Parties reasonably determine that the
conduct of its defense by Mezzanine Borrower presents a conflict or potential
conflict between Mezzanine Borrower and an Indemnified Party that would make
separate representation advisable or otherwise could be prejudicial to its
interests, (ii) Mezzanine Borrower refuses to defend or (iii) Mezzanine Borrower
shall have failed, in Mezzanine Lender's reasonable judgment, to diligently
defend the Claim. Mezzanine Borrower may settle any Claim against Indemnified
Parties without such Indemnified Parties' consent, provided that (x) such
settlement is without any liability, cost or expense whatsoever to such
Indemnified Parties, (y) the settlement does not include or require any
admission of liability or culpability by such Indemnified Parties under any
Legal Requirement, whether criminal or civil in nature, and (z) Mezzanine
Borrower obtains an effective written release of liability for such Indemnified
Parties from the party to the Claim with whom such settlement is being made,
which release must be reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Parties, and a
dismissal with prejudice with respect to all Claims made by the party with whom
such settlement is being made, with respect to any pending legal action against
such Indemnified Parties in connection with such Claim. If the Indemnified
Parties are conducting their own defense as provided above, Mezzanine Borrower
shall be responsible for any good faith settlement of such Claim entered into by
such Indemnified Parties, and such Indemnified Parties shall not be required to
obtain Mezzanine Borrower's consent to any such settlement. Nothing contained
herein shall be construed as requiring any Indemnified Parties to expend funds
or incur costs to defend any Claim in connection with the matters for which such
Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section
8.29 hereof.

          Section 8.30.  MEZZANINE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. Mezzanine Borrower
hereby acknowledges to and agrees with Mezzanine Lender that (i) the scope of
Mezzanine Lender's business is wide and includes, but is not limited to,
financing, real estate financing, investment in real estate and other real
estate transactions which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the
business of Mezzanine Borrower or its Affiliates and (ii) Mezzanine Borrower has
been represented by competent legal counsel and Mezzanine Borrower has consulted
with such counsel prior to executing this Mezzanine Loan Agreement and of the
other Mezzanine Loan Documents.

          Section 8.31.  PUBLICITY. Mezzanine Lender shall have the right to
issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials describing
Mezzanine Lender's participation in the origination of the Mezzanine Loan.

          Section 8.32. RIGHT TO EXERCISE REMEDIES. Without limitation to any
other right or remedy provided to Mezzanine Lender in this Agreement or any of
the other Mezzanine Loan Documents, Mezzanine Borrower acknowledges and agrees
that, to the full extent permitted under applicable law, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default (i) Mezzanine Lender shall have
the right to pursue all of its rights and remedies in one proceeding, or
separately and independently in separate proceedings which it, as Mezzanine
Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine from time to time,
(ii) Mezzanine Lender is not required to either marshal assets, sell Collateral
in any inverse order of alienation, or be subjected to any "one action" or
"election of remedies" law or rule, (iii) the exercise by Mezzanine Lender of
any remedies against any Collateral will not impede Mezzanine Lender from
subsequently or simultaneously exercising remedies against any other Collateral,
(iv) all Liens and other rights, remedies and privileges provided to Mezzanine
Lender in this Agreement

                                       59
<Page>

and in the other Mezzanine Loan Documents or otherwise shall remain in full
force and effect until Mezzanine Lender has exhausted all of its remedies
against the Collateral and all Collateral has been foreclosed, sold and/or
otherwise realized upon and (v) all Collateral shall be security for the
performance of all of Mezzanine Borrower's obligations hereunder.

          Section 8.33.  RELEASE. Upon full payment and satisfaction of all of
the obligations under the Mezzanine Loan Documents, Mezzanine Lender shall
execute such releases and reconveyances as are customary to release and reconvey
the Collateral which secures the Mezzanine Loan. Mezzanine Lender shall refund
to Mezzanine Borrower the amount of such excess, and in such event, Mezzanine
Lender shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any laws for
contracting for, charging or receiving interest in excess of the maximum amount
allowed by applicable law.

          Section 8.34.  JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. The obligations of
Mezzanine Borrower under this Agreement are the joint and several obligations of
each of them.

          Section 8.35.  DISPUTES. In the event that compliance by Mezzanine
Borrower or Property Owner with the provisions of consents or approvals from the
Mezzanine Lender would cause an "Event of Default" (as such term is defined in
the Mortgage Loan Documents) to occur, after the giving of notice or passage of
any grace periods provided for in the Mortgage Loan Documents, Mezzanine
Borrower shall so notify Mezzanine Lender in writing, and Mezzanine Borrower
shall not be in default hereunder by reason of its failure to comply with such
consent or approval of Mezzanine Lender. Mezzanine Lender reserves the right to
modify any such consent or approval to prevent the occurrence of an "Event of
Default" under the Mortgage Loan Documents, in which case failure to comply with
such modified consent or approval shall not be excused hereby.
