Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this Current Report on Form 10-Q or incorporated by reference herein are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and, as such, may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe the Company’s future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “may”, “will”, “should”, “estimates”, “projects”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “expects”, “intends”, “future”, and words of similar import, or the negative thereof. Factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (i) the economic, political and social impact of, and uncertainty relating to, the COVID-19 pandemic, including: (a) the effectiveness or lack of effectiveness of governmental relief in providing assistance to large and small businesses, particularly including our retail tenants and other retailers, that have suffered significant declines in revenues as a result of mandatory business shut-downs, “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders and social distancing practices, as well as individuals adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, (b) the duration of any such orders or other formal recommendations for social distancing and the speed and extent to which revenues of our retail tenants recover following the lifting of any such orders or recommendations, (c) the potential impact of any such events on the obligations of the Company’s tenants to make rent and other payments or honor other commitments under existing leases, (d) the potential adverse impact on returns from redevelopment projects, (e) to the extent we were seeking to sell properties in the near term, significantly greater uncertainty regarding our ability to do so at attractive prices, and (f) the broader impact of the severe economic contraction and increase in unemployment that has occurred in the short term and negative consequences that will occur if these trends are not quickly reversed; (ii) the ability and willingness of the Company’s tenants and other third parties to satisfy their obligations under their respective contractual arrangements with the Company; (iii) the loss or bankruptcy of the Company’s tenants, particularly in light of the adverse impact to the financial health of many retailers that has occurred and continues to occur as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic; (iv) the ability and willingness of the Company’s tenants to renew their leases with the Company upon expiration, the Company’s ability to re-lease its properties on the same or better terms in the event of nonrenewal or in the event the Company exercises its right to replace an existing tenant, and obligations the Company may incur in connection with the replacement of an existing tenant, particularly, in light of the adverse impact to the financial health of many retailers that has occurred and continues to occur as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the significant uncertainty as to when and the conditions under which potential tenants will be able to operate physical retail locations in future; (v) macroeconomic conditions, such as a disruption of or lack of access to capital markets and the adverse impact of the recent significant decline in the Company’s share price from prices prior to the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic; (vi) financing risks, such as the Company’s inability to obtain new financing or refinancing on favorable terms as the result of market volatility or instability; (vii) increases in the Company’s borrowing costs as a result of changes in interest rates and other factors, including the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021; (viii) the impact of the Company’s leverage on operating performance; (ix) risks related to the market for retail space generally, including reductions in consumer spending, variability in retailer demand for leased space, adverse impact of e-commerce, ongoing consolidation in the retail sector and changes in economic conditions and consumer confidence; (x) risks endemic to real estate and the real estate industry generally; (xi) competitive risks; (xii) risks related to the geographic concentration of the Company’s properties in the Washington, D.C. to Boston corridor; (xiii) damage to the Company’s properties from catastrophic weather and other natural events, and the physical effects of climate change; (xiv) the inability of the Company to realize anticipated returns from its redevelopment activities; (xv) uninsured losses; (xvi) the Company’s ability and willingness to maintain its qualification as a REIT in light of economic, market, legal, tax and other considerations; and (xvii) information technology security breaches. For further discussion of factors that could materially affect the outcome of forward-looking statements, see “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and other documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.

Except for ongoing obligations to disclose material information as required by the federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. All of the above factors are difficult to predict, contain uncertainties that may materially affect the Company’s actual results and may be beyond the Company’s control.  New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company’s management to predict all such factors or to assess the effects of each factor on the Company’s business. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company’s current expectations will be realized.

Note 1. Business and Organization

Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that focuses primarily on ownership, operation and redevelopment of grocery-anchored shopping centers in high-density urban markets from Washington, D.C. to Boston. At June 30, 2021, the Company owned and managed a portfolio of 53 operating properties (excluding properties “held for sale”).

Cedar Realty Trust Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) is the entity through which the Company conducts substantially all of its business and owns (either directly or through subsidiaries) substantially all of its assets. At June 30, 2021, the Company owned a 99.4% general and limited partnership interest in, and was the sole general partner of, the Operating Partnership. The limited partners’ interest in the Operating Partnership (0.6% at June 30, 2021) is represented by partnership units in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”). The carrying amount of such interest is adjusted at the end of each reporting period to an amount equal to the limited partners’ ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership’s net equity. The 81,000 OP Units outstanding at June 30, 2021 are economically equivalent to shares of the Company’s common stock. The holders of OP Units have the right to exchange their OP Units for the same number of shares of the Company’s common stock or, at the Company’s option, for cash. Unless specifically noted otherwise, all references to OP Units exclude limited partnership units held by the Company.

As used herein, the “Company” refers to Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, including the Operating Partnership or, where the context so requires, Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. only.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2020, the FASB issued a question-and-answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) focused on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”). Under existing

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

lease guidance, the Company would have to determine, on a lease by lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated with the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q&A clarifies that entities may elect to not evaluate whether lease-related relief that lessors provide to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 on lessees is a lease modification under ASC 842. Instead, an entity that elects not to evaluate whether a concession directly related to COVID-19 is a modification can then elect whether to apply the modification guidance (i.e. assume the relief was always contemplated by the contract or assume the relief was not contemplated by the contract). Both lessees and lessors may make this election. The Company is evaluating its election on a disaggregated basis, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company provided lease concessions to certain tenants in response to the impact of COVID-19, in the form of rent deferrals.  The Company has made an election to account for such lease concessions consistent with how those concessions would be accounted for under ASC 842 if enforceable rights and obligations for those concessions had already existed in the leases.  This election is available for concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that do not result in a substantial increase in our rights as lessor, including concessions that result in the total payments required by the modified lease being substantially the same as or less than total payments required by the original lease.

Substantially all of the Company’s concessions to date provide for a deferral of payments with no substantive changes to the consideration in the original lease. These deferrals affect the timing, but not the amount, of the lease payments.  The Company is accounting for these deferrals as if no changes to the lease were made. Under this accounting, the Company increases its receivables as tenant payments accrue and continues to recognize rental income. Through June 30, 2021, the Company has entered into lease modifications that deferred approximately $3.5 million, of which $2.4 million relates to deferrals that the Company continued to recognize rental income. In addition, through June 30, 2021, the Company has entered into agreements that waived approximately $2.4 million of rent.

Note 3. Real Estate

Investment in unconsolidated joint venture

On May 5, 2021, the Company formed a joint venture with Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group and Asland Capital Partners (the “Joint Venture”) for the construction of an approximately 258,000 square foot six-story commercial building in Washington D.C. consisting of approximately 240,000 square feet of office space which is 100% leased to the Washington, D.C., Department of General Services (“DGS”) for its headquarters and approximately 18,000 square feet of street-level retail. The term of the lease with DGS is for 20 years and 10 months, to commence upon substantial completion and delivery to the DGS. This building is planned as the first phase of Northeast Heights, a redevelopment of two existing shopping centers, East River Park and Senator Square, into a mixed-use residential, office and retail property. Further, the Joint Venture has secured construction financing from JP Morgan not to exceed $105 million. The construction loan initially bears interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points and has an initial term of three years with two, one-year extension options subject to customary conditions. The Company will have a 10% interest in the joint venture and be a co-general partner along with Asland Capital Partners. The Company has contributed approximately $2.5 million of capital to the Joint Venture as of June 30, 2021. The Company has sold approximately $8.0 million of development costs to the Joint Venture as of June 30, 2021.

The Joint Venture currently estimates that the space will be delivered during the end of the fourth quarter 2022. Upon completion of the building, the District will be obligated to pay initial annual net rent of approximately $5.4 million per year, subject to a 2.5% annual escalator on each anniversary of rent commencement, plus certain operating costs, property taxes and amortization of tenant improvements together totaling approximately an additional $8.1 million per year, for an aggregate total annual rent of approximately $13.5 million. The Lease provides for a free rent period of 10 months immediately following rent commencement. The Lease also provides the District with a tenant credit of approximately $6.8 million to be applied, at the District’s election, against either annual rent or any other tenant payment obligations including tenant improvement costs, in excess of the tenant improvement allowance. Pursuant to the Lease, the Joint Venture will contribute up to $155 per rentable square foot toward the cost of tenant improvements, to be amortized over 240 months. In addition, the Lease provides that the Joint Venture will contribute $9.38 per rentable square foot in additional tenant improvement allowance between the 10th and 12th Lease years, upon the District’s timely election. The obligations of the District under the Lease are subject to annual budget appropriation.

The gains on sales and the reversal of impairments are included in operating income in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

Real Estate Held for Sale

As of June 30, 2021, Carll’s Corner, located in Bridgeton, New Jersey has been classified as “real estate held for sale” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

The Company, when applicable, conducts a continuing review of the values for all properties “held for sale” based on final sales prices and sales contracts entered into. Impairment charges/reversals, if applicable, are based on a comparison of the carrying values of the properties with either (1) actual sales prices less costs to sell for properties sold, or contract amounts for properties in the process of being sold, (2) estimated sales prices, less costs to sell, based on discounted cash flow or income capitalization analyses, if no contract amounts are being negotiated (see Note 4 - “Fair Value Measurements”), or (3) with respect to land parcels, estimated sales prices, less costs to sell, based on comparable sales completed in the selected market areas. Prior to the Company’s determination to dispose of properties, which are subsequently reclassified to “held for sale”, the Company performed recoverability analyses based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows that were expected to result from the real estate investments’ use and eventual disposal. The projected undiscounted cash flows of each property reflects that the carrying value of each real estate investment would be recovered. However, as a result of the properties’ meeting the “held for sale” criteria, such properties were written down to the lower of their carrying value and estimated fair values less costs to sell, if applicable.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, rents and other receivables, certain other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate their fair value due to their terms and/or short-term nature. The fair value of the Company’s investments and liabilities related to share-based compensation were determined to be Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy, and were based on independent values provided by financial institutions.

The fair value of the Company’s fixed rate mortgage loan was estimated using available market information and discounted cash flow analyses based on borrowing rates the Company believes it could obtain with a similar term and maturity.  As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fair value of the Company’s fixed rate mortgage loans payable, which were determined to be Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy, was $158.6 million and $47.0 million, respectively; the carrying value of such loan was $157.3 million and $45.4 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, the aggregate fair values of the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility and term loans approximated the carrying values. In addition, the fair value of the Company’s mortgage note receivable and finance lease obligation, which were determined to be Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy, approximated their carrying values as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The valuations of the assets and liabilities for the Company’s interest rate swaps, which are measured on a recurring basis, were determined to be Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy, and were based on independent values provided by financial institutions. Such valuations were determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analyses, on the expected cash flows of each derivative. The analyses reflect the contractual terms of the swaps, including the period to maturity, and

observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves (“significant other observable inputs”). The fair value calculation also includes an amount for risk of non-performance using “significant unobservable inputs” such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default. The Company has concluded that, as of June 30, 2021, the fair value associated with the “significant unobservable inputs” relating to the Company’s risk of non-performance was insignificant to the overall fair value of the interest rate swap agreements and, as a result, that the relevant inputs for purposes of calculating the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements, in their entirety, were based upon “significant other observable inputs”.

Nonfinancial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated financial statements consist of real estate held for sale, which, if applicable, are measured on a nonrecurring basis, and have been determined to be (1) Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy, where applicable, based on the respective contracts of sale, adjusted for closing costs and expenses, or (2) Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy, where applicable, based on estimated sales prices, adjusted for closing costs and expenses, determined by discounted cash flow analyses, income capitalization analyses or a sales comparison approach if no contracts had been concluded. The discounted cash flow and income capitalization analyses include all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specific holding period. These cash flows were composed of unobservable inputs which included forecasted rental revenues and expenses based upon existing in-place leases, market conditions and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these analyses were based upon observable rates that the Company believed to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties. The sales comparison approach is utilized for certain land values and includes comparable sales that were completed in the selected market areas. The comparable sales utilized in these analyses were based upon observable per acre rates that the Company believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties.

Valuations were prepared using internally-developed valuation models. These valuations are reviewed and approved, during each reporting period, by a diverse group of management, as deemed necessary, including personnel from the acquisition, accounting, finance, operations, development and leasing departments, and the valuations are updated as appropriate. In addition, the Company may engage third-party valuation experts to assist with the preparation of certain of its valuations.

The following tables show the hierarchy for those assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively:

Description Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total

As of June 30, 2021, real estate held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet consisted of one retail property, totaling $2.2 million, which was determined to be Level 3 asset under the hierarchy, and was measured at fair value less cost to sell on a non-recurring basis using a direct capitalization approach, consisting of a capitalization rate of 8.5%.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans

On August 4, 2020, the Company amended its existing $300 million unsecured credit facility and term loans. After such amendments, the Company’s financial ratios and borrowing base are now all computed using the trailing four quarters as opposed to the current quarter annualized and interest rate swaps that are a hedge of existing debt are now excluded from the definition of debt. The $300 million unsecured credit facility consists of (1) a $250 million revolving credit facility, expiring on September 8, 2021, and (2) a $50 million term loan, expiring on September 8, 2022. The revolving credit facility may be extended, at the Company’s option, for an additional one-year period, subject to customary conditions. Under an accordion feature, the facility can be increased to $750 million, subject to customary conditions and lending commitments. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility component can range from LIBOR plus 135 bps to 195 bps (165 bps at June 30, 2021 and 150 bps as of this filing) and interest on borrowings under the term loan component can range from LIBOR plus 130 bps to 190 bps (160 bps at June 30, 2021 and 145 bps as of this filing), each based on the Company’s leverage ratio. Interest on borrowings under the unsecured credit facility and term loans is based on the Company’s leverage ratio.

The Company’s unsecured credit facility and term loans contain financial covenants including, but not limited to, maximum debt leverage, maximum secured debt, minimum fixed charge coverage, and minimum net worth. In addition, the facility contains restrictions including, but not limited to, limits on indebtedness, certain investments and distributions. The Company’s failure to comply with the covenants or the occurrence of an event of default under the facilities could result in the acceleration of the related debt and exercise of other lender remedies. Although the credit facility is unsecured, borrowing availability is based on unencumbered property adjusted net operating income for the trailing twelve months, as defined in the agreements. As of the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company had $12.0 million outstanding and $112.1 million available for additional borrowings under its revolving credit facility, and was in compliance with all financial covenants.

On May 5, 2021, the Company closed a non-recourse mortgage for $114.0 million. The mortgage matures June 1, 2031, bears interest at a fixed-rate of 3.49% and requires payment of interest only for the first five years followed by payments of principal and interest based on thirty-year amortization for the remainder of the term. The loan is secured by five shopping centers consisting of Lawndale Plaza, The Shops at Suffolk Downs, Christina Crossing, Trexlertown Plaza, and The Point.  These properties had no pre-existing debt and the proceeds from this new loan were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The fair values of the interest rate swaps applicable to the unsecured term loans discussed above are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2021. Charges and/or credits relating to the changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are made to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), limited partners’ interest, or operations (included in interest expense), as applicable. Over time, the unrealized gains and losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings as an increase or reduction to interest expense in the same periods in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings. The Company estimates that approximately $6.3 million of accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified as a decrease to earnings within the next twelve months.

The following is a summary of the derivative financial instruments held by the Company at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is a party to certain legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Management does not expect there to be adverse consequences from these actions that would be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company is the lessee under several ground leases and its executive office lease agreement. As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s weighted average remaining lease term is approximately 30.4 years and the weighted average discount rate used to calculate the Company’s lease liability is approximately 5.7%. Rent expense under the Company’s ground lease and executive office lease agreements was approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Rent expense under the Company’s ground lease and executive office lease agreements was approximately $0.7 million and $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

During the first quarter of 2020, COVID-19 began spreading globally, with the outbreak being classified as a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. The Company currently faces significant risks and uncertainties related to the adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has created significant economic uncertainty and volatility. Certain tenants have announced temporary closures of their stores and have requested rent deferrals or forgiveness during this pandemic. COVID-19 could have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flow which could result in (1) the Company’s tenants being  unable to fully meet their obligations and to seek modification of their obligations, resulting in increases in uncollectible rents and a reduction in rental income, (2) difficulties in the Company’s future compliance with financial covenants in regards to its unsecured credit facilities, and (3) the recognition of impairments charges of the Company’s real estate.

As a result of COVID-19, the Company has received numerous rent relief requests, most often in the form of rent deferrals. The Company has evaluated, and continues to evaluate, each tenant rent relief request on an individual basis, considering a number of factors. During the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the Company collected 97% and 96% of contractual base rents and monthly tenant reimbursements, respectively. Through June 30, 2021, the Company deferred approximately $3.5 million and waived approximately $2.4 million of rental income, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, the weighted average payback period for the remaining deferred rent receivable is approximately 10 months, beginning at various times from July 2020 through June 2021.

Note 8. Revenues

Rental revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, comprise the following:

Three months ended June 30, Six months ended June 30,
2021 2020 2021 2020
Base rents $ 23,574,000 $ 22,781,000 $ 47,591,000 $ 48,543,000
Expense recoveries 7,452,000 6,328,000 15,800,000 14,883,000
Percentage rent 362,000 33,000 927,000 329,000
Straight-line rents 229,000 (988,000 ) 359,000 (945,000 )
Amortization of intangible lease liabilities, net 263,000 307,000 539,000 766,000
Total rents $ 31,880,000 $ 28,461,000 $ 65,216,000 $ 63,576,000

The Company reviews the collectability of charges under its tenant operating leases on a regular basis, taking into consideration changes in factors such as the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area where the property is located. During 2021 and 2020, the Company’s assessment has specifically included the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which represents a material risk to collectability. In the event that collectability with respect to any tenant changes the Company recognizes an adjustment to rental income. The Company’s review of collectability of charges under its operating leases includes any accrued rental revenues related to the straight-line method of reporting rental revenue. During 2021 and 2020, the Company identified various tenants where collection was no longer considered probable. The determination to record revenue on a cash basis and write off any outstanding straight-line receivable from these various tenants reduced net income $0 and $0.1 million  for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. In addition, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, $0.5 million and $0.9 million  of billed charges, consisting of rent and tenant reimbursements, were unpaid, and based on the Company’s determination to record revenue on a cash basis for these tenants, these amounts were not recorded as revenue.

Note 9. Share-Based Compensation

The following tables set forth certain share-based compensation information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively:

Three months ended June 30, Six months ended June 30,
2021 2020 2021 2020

Restricted share grants 119,000 10.58
Vested during period (95,000 ) 34.11
Forfeitures/cancellations (7,000 ) 16.63
Unvested shares/units, March 31, 2021 659,000 $ 22.01

On June 15, 2018, the Company’s President and CEO was granted a market performance-based equity award of 227,272 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and 227,272 dividend equivalent rights (“DERs”) of the Company. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one common share if certain market performance criteria are achieved. Each DER accrues and will be deemed to be reinvested into the Company’s common stock for which payment will only be made for the portion of the market performance-based equity award that are earned and vest. During the three years ending June 15, 2021 (the “Interim Performance Period”), a maximum of 113,636 shares could be earned. Any portion of the market performance based equity award that was not earned as of the end of the Interim Performance Period will be carried forward for calculation for the five years ending June 15, 2023 (the “Full Performance Period”). The percentage of the market performance-based equity award to be earned will be determined based on the Company’s annual return on an investment in the Company’s common stock (“TSR”) over the Interim Performance Period and/or over the Full Performance Period as follows: if average annual TSR (1) is below 4%, the percentage of grant earned would be 0%, (2) equals 4%, the percentage of grant earned would be 33.3%, (3) equals 6.5%, the percentage of grant earned would be 66.7%, and (4) equals 10% or above, the percentage of grant earned would be 100%. Linear interpolation shall be applied to determine the percentage of the market performance-based equity award that is earned where the average annual TSR over the performance period falls between the percentages set forth above.  Based on market performance for the Interim Performance Period, it was determined the Company’s President and CEO earned 113,636 shares. Accordingly, on July 20, 2021, the Company issued 113,636 common shares to the CEO and paid him $0.3 million for the related DERs.

Note 10. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to the Company’s common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period including participating securities (restricted shares that have non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends issued pursuant to the Company’s share-based compensation program are considered participating securities). Unvested restricted shares that are participating securities are not allocated net losses and/or any excess of dividends declared over net income, as such amounts are allocated entirely to the common shareholders. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company had 0.5 million and 0.5 million, respectively, of weighted average unvested restricted shares outstanding that were participating securities. The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the EPS calculations for the three and six months ended June  30, 2021 and 2020:

Fully-diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into shares of common stock. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, no restricted stock units (“RSU’s”) would have been issuable under the Company’s President and CEO market performance-based equity award had the measurement period ended on June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, therefore this market performance-based equity award had no impact in calculation diluted EPS. Net income/loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of the Operating Partnership has been excluded from the numerator and the related OP Units have been excluded from the denominator for the purpose of calculating diluted EPS as there would have been no dilutive effect had such amounts been included. The weighted average number of OP Units outstanding were 81,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The weighted average number of OP Units outstanding were 81,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020.

Note 11. Subsequent Events

In determining subsequent events, management reviewed all activity from July 1, 2021 through the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Other than those events disclosed in this report, there were no other events or transactions that occurred that would require adjustment to, or disclosure in, the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

Executive Summary

The Company is a fully-integrated real estate investment trust that focuses primarily on ownership, operation and redevelopment of grocery-anchored shopping centers in high-density urban markets from Washington, D.C. to Boston. At June 30, 2021, the Company owned and managed a portfolio of 53 operating properties (excluding properties “held for sale”) totaling 7.6 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”). The portfolio was 88.7% leased and 87.6% occupied at June 30, 2021.

The Company derives substantially all of its revenues from rents and operating expense reimbursements received pursuant to leases. The Company’s operating results therefore depend on the ability of its tenants to make the payments required by the terms of their leases. The Company focuses its investment activities on grocery-anchored shopping centers. The Company believes that, because of the need of consumers to purchase food and other staple goods and services generally available at such centers, its type of “necessities-based” properties should provide relatively stable revenue flows even during difficult economic times.

Significant Circumstances and Transactions

COVID-19 Pandemic

As a result of COVID-19, the Company has received numerous rent relief requests, most often in the form of rent deferrals. The Company has entered into lease modifications that deferred approximately $3.5 million and waived approximately $2.4 million of rental income through June 30, 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, the weighted average payback period for remaining deferred rent receivable is approximately 10 months, beginning at various times from July 2020 through June 2021. The Company has collected approximately 97% and 96% of contractual base rents and monthly tenant reimbursements for the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively.

Real Estate

On May 5, 2021, the Company formed a joint venture with Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group and Asland Capital Partners (the “Joint Venture”) for the construction of an approximately 258,000 square foot six-story commercial building in Washington D.C. consisting of approximately 240,000 square feet of office space which is 100% leased to the Washington, D.C., Department of General Services (“DGS”) for its headquarters and approximately 18,000 square feet of street-level retail. The term of the lease with DGS is for 20 years and 10 months, to commence upon substantial completion and delivery to the DGS. This building is planned as the first phase of Northeast Heights, a redevelopment of two existing shopping centers, East River Park and Senator Square, into a mixed-use residential, office and retail property. Further, the Joint Venture has secured construction financing from JP Morgan not to exceed $105 million. The construction loan initially bears interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points and has an initial term of three years with two, one-year extension options subject to customary conditions. The Company will have a 10% interest in the joint venture and be a co-general partner along with Asland Capital Partners. The Company has contributed approximately $2.5 million of capital to the Joint Venture as of June 30, 2021. The Company has sold approximately $8.0 million of development costs to the Joint Venture as of June 30, 2021.

The Joint Venture currently estimates that the space will be delivered during the end of the fourth quarter 2022. Upon completion of the building, the District will be obligated to pay initial annual net rent of approximately $5.4 million per year, subject to a 2.5% annual escalator on each anniversary of rent commencement, plus certain operating costs, property taxes and amortization of tenant improvements together totaling approximately an additional $8.1 million per year, for an aggregate total annual rent of approximately $13.5 million. The Lease provides for a free rent period of 10 months immediately following rent commencement. The Lease also provides the District with a tenant credit of approximately $6.8 million to be applied, at the District’s election, against either annual rent or any other tenant payment obligations including tenant improvement costs, in excess of the tenant improvement allowance. Pursuant to the Lease, the Joint Venture will contribute up to $155 per rentable square foot toward the cost of tenant improvements, to be amortized over 240 months. In addition, the Lease provides that the Joint Venture will contribute $9.38 per rentable square foot in additional tenant improvement allowance between the 10th and 12th Lease years, upon the District’s timely election. The obligations of the District under the Lease are subject to annual budget appropriation.

As of June 30, 2021, Carll’s Corner, located in Bridgeton, New Jersey, has been classified as “real estate held for sale” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

The following table shows the property dispositions during the six months ended June 30, 2021:

The gains on sale and the reversal of impairment are included in operating income in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans

On August 4, 2020, the Company amended its existing $300 million unsecured credit facility and term loans. After such amendments, the Company’s financial ratios and borrowing base are now all computed using trailing four quarters as opposed to the current quarter annualized and interest rate swaps that are a hedge of existing debt are now excluded from the definition of debt.

On October 27, 2020, the Company utilized its revolving credit facility to repay the $75.0 million term loan which was set to mature in February 2021. The revolving credit facility matures in September 2021, and may be extended, at the Company’s option, for an additional one-year period, subject to customary conditions.

On May 5, 2021, the Company closed a non-recourse mortgage for $114.0 million. The mortgage matures June 1, 2031, bears interest at a fixed-rate of 3.49% and requires payment of interest only for the first five years followed by payments of principal and interest based on thirty-year amortization for the remainder of the term. The loan is secured by five shopping centers consisting of Lawndale Plaza, The Shops at Suffolk Downs, Christina Crossing, Trexlertown Plaza, and The Point.  These properties had no pre-existing debt and the proceeds from this new loan were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

Common Stock

On November 25, 2020, the Company effected a 1-for-6.6 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Each 6.6 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were combined into one share of the Company’s common stock. The number of authorized shares and the par value of the common stock were not changed. In addition, the Company amended the Limited Partnership Agreement of our Operating Partnership to effect a corresponding reverse split of the partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. In accordance with GAAP, all shares of common stock, restricted stock units, OP Units and per share/unit information that are presented in this Form 10-Q were adjusted to reflect the reverse split on a retroactive basis for all periods presented.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, real estate investments and purchase accounting allocations related thereto, asset impairments, and derivatives used to hedge interest-rate risks. Management’s estimates are based both on information that is currently available and on various other assumptions management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those estimates could be different under varying assumptions or conditions.

The Company believes there have been no material changes to the items disclosed as its critical accounting policies under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.  See Note 2 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for recently-adopted accounting pronouncements.

Same-Property Net Operating Income

Same-property net operating income (“same-property NOI”) is a widely-used non-GAAP financial measure for REITs that the Company believes, when considered with financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, is useful to investors as it provides an indication of the recurring cash generated by the Company’s properties by excluding certain non-cash revenues and expenses, as well as other infrequent items such as lease termination income which tends to fluctuate more than rents from year to year. Properties are included in same-property NOI if they are owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared, except for properties undergoing significant redevelopment and expansion until such properties have stabilized, and properties classified as held for sale. Consistent with the capital treatment of such costs under GAAP, tenant improvements, leasing commissions and other direct leasing costs are excluded from same-property NOI.

The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is consolidated operating income. Same-property NOI should not be considered as an alternative to consolidated operating income prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. Further, same-property NOI is a measure for which there is no standard industry definition and, as such, it is not consistently defined or reported on among the Company’s peers, and thus may not provide an adequate basis for comparison among REITs.

The following table reconciles same-property NOI to the Company’s consolidated operating income:

For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30,
2021 2020 2021 2020
Operating income (loss) $ 56,449,000 $ (331,000 ) $ 62,408,000 $ 3,088,000
Add (deduct):

Same-property average base rent, end of period $ 13.55 $ 13.73 $ 13.55 $ 13.73

Same-property NOI for the comparable three and six month periods increased 8.2% and 0.8%, respectively, as a result of the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic which reduced rental revenues for prior year same-property portfolio.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company funds operating expenses and other short-term liquidity requirements, including debt service, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, preferred and common dividend distributions and distributions to minority interest partners, if made, primarily from its operations. The Company may also use its revolving credit facility for these purposes. The Company expects to fund long-term liquidity requirements for property acquisitions, redevelopment costs, capital improvements, and maturing debt initially with its revolving credit facility, and ultimately through a combination of issuing and/or assuming additional debt, the sale of equity securities, the issuance of additional OP Units, and/or the sale of properties. Although the Company believes it has access to secured and unsecured financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will have access to financing for development projects, financing for additional construction projects, or proceeds from refinancing of existing debt.

Effective April 28, 2020, the average closing price of the Company’s common stock had been less than $1.00 over the prior 30-consecutive trading day period, and as a result, the Company received notice from the NYSE that the Company had until December 31, 2020 to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement. The threat of delisting and/or a delisting of the Company’s common stock could have adverse effects, such as restricting the Company’s ability to obtain equity financing. On October 27, 2020, to regain compliance with the minimum NYSE share price requirement, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a plan to amend the Company’s articles of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

On November 25, 2020, the Company effected a 1-for-6.6 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Each 6.6 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were combined into one share of the Company’s common stock. The number of authorized shares and the par value of the common stock were not changed. In addition, the Company amended the Limited Partnership Agreement of our Operating Partnership to effect a corresponding reverse split of the partnership interests of the Operating Partnership.

On August 4, 2020, the Company amended its existing $300 million unsecured credit facility and term loans. After such amendments, the Company’s financial ratios and borrowing base are now all computed using the trailing four quarters as opposed to the current quarter annualized and interest rate swaps that are a hedge of existing debt are now excluded from the definition of debt. The $300 million unsecured credit facility consists of (1) a $250 million revolving credit facility, and (2) a $50 million term loan. The revolving credit facility may be extended, at the Company’s option, for an additional one-year period, subject to customary conditions. Under an accordion feature, the facility can be increased to $750 million, subject to customary conditions and lending commitments. Interest on borrowings under the unsecured credit facility and term loans are based on the Company’s leverage ratio.

The Company’s unsecured credit facility and term loans contain financial covenants including, but not limited to, maximum debt leverage, maximum secured debt, minimum fixed charge coverage, and minimum net worth. In addition, the facility contains restrictions including, but not limited to, limits on indebtedness, certain investments and distributions. The Company’s failure to comply with the covenants or the occurrence of an event of default under the facilities could result in the acceleration of the related debt and exercise of other lender remedies. Although the credit facility is unsecured, borrowing availability is based on unencumbered property adjusted net operating income for the trailing twelve months, as defined in the agreements.  As of the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company had $12.0 million outstanding and $112.1 million available for additional borrowings under its revolving credit facility, and was in compliance with all financial covenants.

On May 5, 2021, the Company closed a non-recourse mortgage for $114.0 million. The mortgage matures June 1, 2031, bears interest at a fixed-rate of 3.49% and requires payment of interest only for the first five years followed by payments of principal and interest based on thirty-year amortization for the remainder of the term. The loan is secured by five shopping centers consisting of Lawndale Plaza, The Shops at Suffolk Downs, Christina Crossing, Trexlertown Plaza, and The Point.  These properties had no pre-existing debt and the proceeds from this new loan were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

Debt and finance lease obligations are composed of the following at June 30, 2021:

(d)  The interest rates on these term loans consist of LIBOR plus a credit spread based on the Company’s leverage ratio, for which the Company has interest rate swap agreements which convert the LIBOR rates to fixed rates. Accordingly, these term loans are presented as fixed-rate debt.

The Company is currently exploring secured and unsecured refinancing options with various lenders. The following table details the Company’s debt and finance lease obligation maturities at June 30, 2021:

Mortgage loans payable may require the Company to deposit certain replacement and other reserves with its lenders. Such “restricted cash” is generally available only for property-level requirements for which the reserves have been established, and is not available to fund other property-level or Company-level obligations.

In order to continue qualifying as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income”, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company paid common and preferred stock dividends during 2020, and has continued to declare and pay common and preferred stock dividends during 2021. While the Company intends to continue paying regular quarterly dividends, future dividend declarations will continue to be at the discretion of the Board of Directors, and will depend on the cash flow and financial condition of the Company, capital requirements, annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, and such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant. Additionally, the Board of Directors may reduce, as it did with the May 2020 common stock dividend of $0.01 per common share, or

suspend payment of dividends to retain cash and reduce debt obligations and/or to fund redevelopments and other capital needs. The Company intends to continue to operate its business in a manner that will allow it to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax requirements.

Net Cash Flows

For the six months ended June 30,
2021 2020
Cash flows provided by (used in):
Operating activities $ 24,804,000 $ 24,518,000
Investing activities $ 88,254,000 $ (18,644,000 )
Financing activities $ (108,862,000 ) $ 59,612,000

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities, before net changes in operating assets and liabilities, was $24.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and $31.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily a result of the Company accepting a payment of $8.0 million in consideration for permitting a dark anchor tenant to terminate its lease prior to the contractual expiration in 2020, which was partially offset by (1) the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, and (2) property dispositions in 2020.

Investing Activities

Net cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities were primarily the result of the Company’s expenditures for property improvements and property disposition activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 the Company received $104.5 million in proceeds from the sale of properties, which was partially off-set by $138 million for property improvements and $2.5 million in contributions to an unconsolidated joint venture. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company incurred expenditures of $18.6 million for property improvements.

Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had net payments of $163.0 million under the revolving credit facility, a $50.0 million of term note pay-off, $7.2 million of preferred and common stock distributions, $0.5 million of mortgage repayments, and $1.6 million of debt financing costs, $0.5 million of termination payments related to a swap liability, which were partially offset by net property specific mortgage note payables of $114.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company had net advances of $70.9 million under the revolving credit facility, which was partially offset by $10.7 million of preferred and common stock distributions, and $0.5 million of mortgage repayments.

Funds From Operations

Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a widely recognized supplemental non-GAAP measure utilized to evaluate the financial performance of a REIT. The Company presents FFO in accordance with the definition adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”). Nareit generally defines FFO as net income (determined in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) from sales of real estate properties, impairment write-downs on real estate properties directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and adjustments for partnerships and joint ventures to reflect FFO on the same basis. The Company considers FFO to be an appropriate measure of its financial performance because it captures features particular to real estate performance by recognizing that real estate generally appreciates over time or maintains residual value to a much greater extent than other depreciable assets.

The Company also considers Operating Funds From Operations (“Operating FFO”) to be an additional meaningful financial measure of financial performance because it excludes items the Company does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance, such as non-capitalized acquisition pursuit costs, amounts relating to early extinguishment of debt and preferred stock redemption costs, management transition costs and certain redevelopment costs. The Company believes Operating FFO further assists in comparing the Company’s performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding such items.

FFO and Operating FFO should be reviewed with net income attributable to common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, when trying to understand the Company’s operating performance. FFO and Operating FFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to

common shareholders or to cash flow from operating activities. The Company’s computations of FFO and Operating FFO may differ from the computations utilized by other REITs and, accordingly, may not by comparable to such REITs.

A reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders to FFO and Operating FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:

Three months ended June 30, Six months ended June 30,
2021 2020 2021 2020
Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders $ 48,367,000 $ (8,785,000 ) $ 46,791,000 $ (13,719,000 )

(c) The weighted average number of diluted common shares used to compute FFO and Operating FFO applicable to diluted common shares includes OP Units and unvested restricted shares/units that are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.

Inflation

Inflation has been relatively low in recent years and has not had a significant detrimental impact on the Company’s results of operations. There have been mixed indications of an increase in inflation in the U.S. economy.  If inflation rates increase, substantially all of the Company’s tenant leases contain provisions designed to partially mitigate the negative impact of inflation in the near term. Such lease provisions include clauses that require tenants to reimburse the Company for inflation-sensitive costs such as real estate taxes and many of the operating expenses it incurs. Significant inflation rate increases over a prolonged period of time may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

One of the principal market risks facing the Company is the risk of interest rate changes, primarily through its variable-rate revolving credit facility and term loans. The Company’s objectives with respect to interest rate risk are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on operations and cash flows, and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, the Company may borrow at either fixed rates or at variable rates and enter into derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps, to mitigate its interest rate risk. The Company does not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. The Company is not directly subject to foreign currency risk.

The Company has entered into forward interest rate swap agreements which convert the LIBOR rates to fixed rates for certain unsecured term loans. At June 30, 2021, the Company had $13.2 million included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet relating to the fair value of the interest rate swaps applicable to certain unsecured term loans.

At June 30, 2021, long-term debt consisted of a fixed-rate mortgage loan payable, a finance lease obligation, unsecured term loans, and the Company’s unsecured variable-rate credit facility. Excluding unamortized premiums and debt issuance costs, the average interest rate on the $464.7 million of fixed-rate debt outstanding was 3.8%, with maturities at various dates through 2050. The average interest rate on the $62.0 million of variable-rate debt outstanding, which consists of the unsecured revolving credit facility and a term loan, was 1.8%. With respect to the $62.0 million of variable-rate debt, if contractual interest rates either increase or decrease by 100 bps, the Company’s interest cost would increase or decrease respectively by approximately $0.6 million per annum.

With respect to the Company’s fixed rate mortgage notes and unsecured term loans, changes in interest rates generally do not affect the Company’s interest expense as these notes are at fixed rates for extended terms. Because the Company presently intends to hold its existing fixed-rate debt either to maturity or until the sale of the associated property, these fixed-rate notes pose an interest rate risk to the Company’s results of operations and its working capital position only upon the refinancing of that indebtedness. The Company’s possible risk is from increases in long-term interest rates that may occur as this may increase the cost of refinancing maturing fixed-rate debt. In addition, the Company may incur prepayment penalties or defeasance costs when prepaying or defeasing debt.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its filings under the Exchange Act is reported within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In this regard, the Company has formed a Disclosure Committee currently comprising several of the Company’s executive officers as well as certain other employees with knowledge of information that may be considered in the SEC reporting process. The Disclosure Committee has responsibility for the development and assessment of the financial and non-financial information to be included in the reports filed with the SEC, and assists the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in connection with their certifications contained in the Company’s SEC filings. The Disclosure Committee meets regularly and reports to the Audit Committee on a quarterly or more frequent basis. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated its disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021, and have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

During the three months ended June 30, 2021, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, these internal controls over financial reporting. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is not presently involved in any litigation, nor, to its knowledge, is any litigation threatened against the Company or its subsidiaries, which is either not covered by the Company’s liability insurance, or, in management’s opinion, would result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There were no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

(h)Condominium Documents.

(i)Borrower shall comply in all respects with the Condominium Documents and the decisions of each of the Condominium Associations (acknowledging that Borrower may contest decisions that Borrower reasonably determines are not consistent with the provisions of the Condominium Documents so long as such contest is not reasonably likely to impair Lender’s security for the Loan).

(ii)Borrower shall pay promptly all common charges and all other sums when due and payable under the terms of the Condominium Documents and, upon demand by Lender, shall furnish to Lender proof of payment of such charges and other sums.

(iii)Borrower shall fully and promptly perform and observe all of its obligations required to be performed under the Condominium Documents within the grace periods provided therein (if any).

(iv) Any default by Borrower under the Condominium Documents that is not cured within any applicable cure period specified in such Condominium Documents, and the resulting commencement by any third party of any enforcement action as a result thereof shall constitute an Event of Default under this Loan Agreement, unless Borrower has made arrangements reasonably required by Lender with respect to the protection of Lender’s interest in the Collateral.

(v)Borrower shall do all things necessary to preserve and keep unimpaired Borrower's rights under the Condominium Documents.

(vi)Borrower shall take all commercially reasonable steps to compel full performance by the Condominium Association of all material obligations to be performed or observed by such Condominium Association pursuant to the applicable Condominium Documents.

(viii)Borrower shall not vote to amend or modify or otherwise approve, consent to, or suffer the amendment or modification of any of the Condominium Documents in any manner whatsoever without obtaining Lender's prior written approval, which approval may be withheld by Lender in Lender's sole discretion; provided, however, that Lender agrees that it will not unreasonably withhold its consent to immaterial and ministerial amendments and modifications to the Condominium Documents.

(a)Property Insurance.  Borrower shall keep, or cause to be kept, each Property insured for the benefit of the Borrower that owns the applicable Property and Lender (with Lender named as mortgagee/loss payee) by (i) an “all risk” or “special form” property insurance policy with an agreed amount endorsement for Full Replacement Cost without any coinsurance provisions or penalties, or the broadest form of coverage available, in an amount sufficient to prevent Lender from ever becoming a coinsurer under the policy or Laws, and with a deductible not to exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00); (ii) a policy or endorsement insuring against both alien and domestic acts of terrorism without co-insurance for damage to such Property, or loss of Rents, caused by acts of terrorism; (iii) a policy or endorsement insuring against claims applicable to the presence of Mold; (iv) a policy or endorsement providing Rent Loss Insurance covering a period of not less than twelve (12) months of gross rent following the date of the Damage; (v) a policy or endorsement insuring against damage by flood if such Property is located in a Special Flood Hazard Area in an amount equal to the Allocable Loan Amount of such Property; (vi) a policy or endorsement covering against Damage from (1) sprinkler system leakage and (2) boilers, boiler tanks, HVAC and other building systems and equipment, pressure vessels, auxiliary piping, and similar apparatus, in such amounts as Lender shall determine; (vii) during the period of any construction, repair, restoration, or replacement of such Property a standard builder’s risk policy with extended coverage in an amount at least equal to the Full Replacement Cost; (viii) worker’s compensation, in statutory amounts; and (ix) a policy or endorsement covering against Damage by earthquake if required by Lender in such amounts as it shall reasonably determine.  Full Replacement Cost will be determined, at Borrower’s expense, periodically upon policy expiration or renewal by the insurance company or an appraiser, engineer, architect, or contractor approved by said company and Approved by Lender.

(b)Liability Insurance.  For each Property, Borrower shall maintain commercial general liability insurance with per occurrence limits of $1,000,000, a products/completed operations limit of $2,000,000, and a general aggregate limit of $2,000,000, with an excess/umbrella liability policy of not less than $5,000,000 per occurrence and annual aggregate covering the Borrower that owns the applicable Property, with Lender named as an additional insured, against claims for bodily injury or death or property damage occurring in, upon, or about such Property. In addition to any other requirements, if commercially available, such commercial general liability and excess/umbrella liability insurance shall provide insurance against acts of terrorism and against claims applicable to the presence of Mold, or such coverages shall be provided by separate policies or endorsements. The insurance policies shall also include operations and blanket contractual liability coverage which insures contractual liability under the indemnification set forth in Article VI below (but such coverage or the amount thereof shall in no way limit such indemnification).

(c)Additional or Changed Insurance Requirements.  Upon not less than sixty (60) days’ advance notice to Borrowers, Lender shall have the right to require that Borrowers carry

such additional or different types, amounts or limits of insurance as Lender may reasonably require in accordance with standard practices in the lending industry for similarly situated properties.

(d)Policy Requirements.  All insurance required under this Section 2.06 shall be fully paid for, nonassessable, and the policies shall contain such provisions, endorsements, and expiration dates as Lender shall reasonably require.  The policies shall be issued by insurance companies authorized to do business in the applicable Property State, Approved by Lender, and must be rated “A” or better by A.M. Best (or if a rating by A.M. Best is no longer available, a similar rating from a similar or successor service) and have a Financial Size Category of “X” or higher.  Companies with A.M. Best ratings of “B” or “C” with reinsurance endorsements are not acceptable.  In addition, all policies shall (i) in the case of insurance required by Section 2.06(a), include a standard mortgagee clause, without contribution, in the name of Lender (and that of its subsidiaries’, Affiliates’, successors’ and assigns’), (ii) to the extent such insurance carrier will so agree to provide, provide that they shall not be canceled, amended, or materially altered (including reduction in the scope or limits of coverage) without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender except in the event of cancellation for non-payment of premium, in which case only ten (10) days’ prior written notice will be given to Lender, and (iii) include a waiver of subrogation clause substantially equivalent to the following: “The Company may require from the Insured an assignment of all rights of recovery against any party for loss to the extent that payment therefor is made by the Company, but the Company shall not acquire any rights of recovery which the Insured has expressly waived prior to loss, nor shall such waiver affect the Insured’s rights under this policy”.  If any insurance carrier refuses to agree that any policy will not be canceled, amended, or materially altered (including reduction in the scope or limits of coverage) without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender except in the event of cancellation for non-payment of premium, in which case only ten (10) days’ prior written notice will be given to Lender, Borrower shall provide notice of any of the foregoing to Lender on or before the later of (A) the time such notice would have been required from the insurer or (B) two (2) Business Days following Borrower’s receipt of such notice.

(e)Evidence of Insurance.  Borrowers shall deliver to Lender (i) original or certified copies of all policies (and renewals) required under this Section 2.06; and (ii) receipts evidencing payment of all premiums on such policies at least fifteen (15) days prior to their expiration.  If original and renewal policies are unavailable or if coverage is under a blanket policy, Borrowers shall deliver duplicate originals, or, if unavailable, acceptable ACORD 27 certificates (or equivalent certificates) evidencing that such policies are in full force and effect together with certified copies of the original policies. If coverage is under a blanket policy, such policy shall make specific reference to each Property and list all locations and insurable values of the properties included in the blanket policy.  In the event that such policies of insurance and evidence of the payment of the premiums therefor are not delivered to Lender, confirming that there will be no gaps in coverage or underinsurance as required by this Loan Agreement, each Borrower hereby expressly authorizes Lender to obtain, without notice to, or demand upon, any Borrower and without releasing any Borrower from any of such Borrower’s obligations hereunder, replacement insurance policies in such amounts, on such terms, and from such insurance agencies or companies as are suitable to Lender in Lender’s sole discretion, which replacement insurance, in Lender’s sole discretion, may protect only Lender’s interest in the applicable Property (or Properties) and need not protect any Borrower’s interest in the Property (or Properties).  If Lender obtains such replacement insurance policies, Lender shall invoice Borrowers for the amount of all fees, costs,

and expenses related thereto, including any premiums paid by Lender, and Borrowers shall remit payment to Lender for such amount within five (5) Business Days of receiving such invoice.  Nothing contained herein shall in any way obligate Lender to obtain or maintain such replacement insurance policies, and Lender shall not incur any liability for obtaining, maintaining, failing to obtain, or failing to maintain any such replacement insurance policies, nor shall Lender incur any liability for any of the contents, form, or legal sufficiency of any such policies, the solvency of any agencies or companies issuing such policies, or the payment or defense of any Proceedings related thereto.  Except to the extent prohibited by Law, Lender may furnish to any insurance agency or company any information concerning the Loan or Borrowers, and any information contained in, or extracted from, any policy of insurance delivered to Lender hereunder.

(f)Waiver of Subrogation.  A waiver of subrogation required by Section 2.06(d) hereof shall be obtained by each Borrower from its insurers and, consequently, each Borrower for itself, and on behalf of its insurers, hereby waives and releases any and all right to claim or recover against Lender, its officers, employees, agents and representatives, for any Damage to any Borrower, other Persons or the Properties from any cause required to be insured against by the provisions of this Loan Agreement or otherwise insured against by Borrowers.

(g)Additional Insurance Requirements.  Borrowers shall not carry separate or additional insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required under this Section 2.06 unless endorsed in favor of Lender in accordance with this Section 2.06 and Approved by Lender (not to be unreasonably withheld) in all respects.  In the event of foreclosure of any Security Instrument or other transfer of title or assignment of any of the Properties in extinguishment, in whole or in part, of the Obligations, all right, title, and interest of Borrowers in and to all policies of insurance then in force regarding the applicable Property and all proceeds payable thereunder and unearned premiums thereon shall immediately vest in the purchaser or other transferee of such Property.  No Approval by Lender of any insurer shall be construed to be a representation, certification, or warranty of its solvency.  No Approval by Lender as to the amount, type, or form of any insurance shall be construed to be a representation, certification, or warranty of its sufficiency.  Borrowers shall comply with all insurance requirements and shall not cause or permit any condition to exist which would be prohibited by any insurance requirement or would invalidate the insurance coverage on any of the Properties.

(h)Insurance for Condo Association. Borrower shall take such actions as are necessary to ensure that Borrower or each Condominium Association maintains an “all risk” or “special form” property insurance policy with an agreed amount endorsement for Full Replacement Cost of the common areas established pursuant to the applicable Condominium Documents without any coinsurance provisions or penalties, or the broadest form of coverage available, in an amount sufficient to prevent Lender from ever becoming a coinsurer under the policy or Laws, and with a deductible not to exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00), and commercial general liability insurance with per occurrence limits of $1,000,000, a products/completed operations limit of $2,000,000, and a general aggregate limit of $2,000,000, with an excess/umbrella liability policy of not less than $5,000,000 per occurrence and annual aggregate covering the applicable Condominium Association against claims for bodily injury or death or property damage liability occurring in, upon, or about any of the property owned or controlled by applicable Condominium Association (including, without limitation, the common areas and elements established pursuant

to the applicable Condominium Documents), or any street, drive, sidewalk, curb, or passageway adjacent thereto.

(i)Payment of Lender’s Costs and Expenses.  Borrowers shall pay all costs and expenses, including Attorneys’ Fees, incurred by Lender in connection with Lender’s review and Approval of Borrowers’ (and any Condominium Association’s) insurance.

Section 2.07Damage and Destruction of Property.

(a)Notification of Lender, Etc.  In the event of any single instance of Damage in excess of $250,000.00, (i) the applicable Borrower shall promptly notify Lender after obtaining actual notice thereof, generally describing the extent of such Damage, and shall take all necessary steps to preserve any undamaged part of the Property; and (ii) such Borrower shall comply with other reasonable requirements established by Lender to preserve the security under this Loan Agreement.  Borrowers expressly assume all risk of loss from any Damage, whether or not insurable or insured against.

(b)Proof of Loss and Settlement of Claims.  Subject to Section 2.07(a) and (e), If any Damage occurs and some or all of it is covered by insurance, then Lender may, but is not obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by the applicable Borrower, and Lender is authorized and empowered  by Borrowers to settle, adjust, or compromise any claims for such Damage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise any claim for Damage if the total amount of such claim is less than the Casualty Threshold; provided that, Borrowers promptly use  such insurance proceeds for Restoration of the Damage and provide evidence thereof to Lender in a manner acceptable to Lender.

(c)Lender to Hold Insurance Proceeds.  Except as provided in Section 2.07(e) below, all insurance proceeds payable on account of such Damage shall be delivered to and held by Lender, to be applied in accordance with this Section 2.07, and each insurance company is authorized and directed to make payment directly to Lender for such Damage.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.07(e) below, Borrowers shall have no right to such proceeds or to direct the use of the same.  If any Borrower receives any insurance proceeds for the Damage or in respect to any Property (except for proceeds relating to claims of less than the Casualty Threshold), such Borrower shall promptly deliver the proceeds to Lender. Any insurance proceeds held by Lender shall be held without the payment of interest thereon.  Notwithstanding anything in this Loan Agreement or at Law or in equity to the contrary, none of the insurance proceeds paid to Lender shall be deemed trust funds, and Lender may dispose of these proceeds as provided in this Section 2.07.

(d)Obligation to Undertake Restoration.  Upon the occurrence of any Damage, Borrowers shall diligently repair or restore (or cause to be repaired or restored) the damaged Improvements in accordance with this Section 2.07, regardless of the amount of Net Proceeds made available to pay for such Restoration and regardless of whether Borrowers were required by this Loan Agreement to insure against such Damage.  If Borrowers were required to maintain insurance by this Loan Agreement and failed to do so, such failure shall not relieve Borrowers of their obligation to undertake Restoration necessitated by any Damage that would have been covered by such insurance.

(e)Use of Proceeds for Restoration.  In the event the insurance proceeds are less than the Casualty Threshold, all insurance proceeds shall be delivered to Borrowers and Borrowers shall commence Restoration and shall diligently prosecute such Restoration to completion.  In the event the insurance proceeds are equal to or exceed the Casualty Threshold and are less than the Restoration Threshold, all Net Proceeds shall be delivered to, and be held by Lender and disbursed towards Restoration (together with any surplus remaining upon completion of the Restoration), subject to the following terms and conditions being satisfied, at Lender’s discretion, at the time of the Damage and at all times during the Restoration:

(i)no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Loan Documents;

(ii)Lender shall have made a reasonable determination that the Restoration is permitted and will not violate any applicable Law;

(iii)Lender shall have made a reasonable determination that the time needed to complete the Restoration will (1) not result in its completion occurring within the 270 days immediately prior to the Maturity Date; and (2) not exceed 180 days from the date that the applicable Borrower has obtained any and all governmental permits and approvals required to effect the Restoration;

(iv)after giving effect to any terminations and any permanent rent abatements of or under any Leases (but without deduction for temporary rent abatements covered by Rent Loss  Insurance), the DSCR shall be no less than 3.00:1.00;

(v)Lender has determined in its good faith discretion that, upon completion of the Restoration, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan will not exceed sixty percent (60%) of the fair market value of the Property;

(vi)the Net Proceeds held by Lender, plus such other funds which Borrowers deposit with Lender at Lender’s written request, are sufficient, in Lender’s reasonable opinion, to restore the Property to substantially the same conditions as existed prior to such Damage; and if at any time Lender or Lender’s construction consultant, if applicable, makes an upward revision of the total remaining cost of Restoration as a result of any material change in the scope of such Restoration, and, as a result, Lender does not have available a sufficient amount of remaining Net Proceeds to pay the remaining cost of Restoration, Borrowers shall pay to Lender within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s written demand such additional amounts as are necessary to cover the amount by which such upward revision exceeds the remaining Net Proceeds;

(vii)the disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be in accordance with typical construction loan disbursement procedures established by Lender;

(viii)Borrowers shall have in place and provide to Lender a policy or policies of builder’s risk insurance in an amount not less than the full insurable value of the Property insuring against such risks (including without limitation fire and extended coverage, collapse of the Improvements and earthquake coverage, if applicable, to agreed limits) as Lender may reasonably request;

(ix)if required by Lender and customary given the scope and complexity of such Restoration, the Restoration shall be performed under the supervision of an architect or engineer (such architect or engineer being referred to hereinafter as the “Architect”) reasonably Approved by Lender and, before Borrowers commence any Restoration other than temporary work to protect property, remedy any unsafe condition or prevent interference with business, Lender shall have Approved (not to be unreasonably withheld) the construction contract and plans and specifications for such Restoration licensed in the state in which the applicable Property is located;

(x)Lender receives each request for payment on ten (10) days’ prior written notice accompanied by a certificate signed by the Architect, if applicable, otherwise by an officer of the applicable Borrower stating that to such officer’s knowledge: (1) the Restoration completed to date has been performed in compliance with the plans and specifications Approved by Lender; (2) the sum requested is necessary to reimburse Borrowers for payments by any Borrower to, or is due to, the contractor, subcontractors, materialmen, laborers, engineers, architects or other persons rendering services or materials for the Restoration (giving a brief description of such services, materials and related costs and to whom same is payable); and (3) the amount of the remaining Net Proceeds held by Lender (in addition to any amounts paid by Borrowers pursuant to this subparagraph) shall be sufficient to pay for the remaining portion of the Restoration in full upon completion of the same (giving in such reasonable detail as Lender may require an estimate of the cost of such completion);

(xi)each request for disbursement by Lender shall be accompanied by lien waivers reasonably satisfactory to Lender covering the part of the Restoration for which payment or reimbursement was requested in the immediately preceding request for payment and, if required by Lender, an endorsement to Lender’s title policy insuring that no liens (other than any notices of commencement or similar liens in the ordinary course) have been filed in connection with the Restoration performed to date;

(xii)if the cost of such Restoration is reasonably estimated to exceed $2,500,000.00, Lender receives, at Lender’s option, a completion bond satisfactory to Lender covering the Restoration (which threshold does not imply that Lender is under any obligation to allow application of Proceeds if the cost thereof exceeds such threshold);

(xiii)the Restoration is performed in accordance with, and the Property is at all times in compliance with, all Laws affecting the Property and/or such Restoration;

(xiv)the applicable Borrower (A) diligently pursues receipt of all applicable permits and approvals necessary to effect the Restoration, (B) commences such Restoration within sixty (60) days of the date upon which it has obtained any and all governmental permits or approvals required to effect Restoration and (C) thereafter diligently prosecutes the completion of the Restoration subject to typical force majeure events;

(xv)during Restoration, either (A) the aggregate monthly net income pursuant to Rent Loss Insurance and/or pursuant to all Leases remaining in full force and effect shall be in an amount sufficient to permit the payment of the monthly installments of the Debt, as well as all

payments for Impositions required hereunder, or (B) Borrowers shall deposit with Lender the amount, as determined by Lender, of any deficiency for the foregoing;

(xvi)Lender receives the final request for payment after completion of the Restoration accompanied by a final lien waiver or waivers and a copy of any such certificate or certificates as shall be required by Law to render occupancy of the Improvements legal; and

(xvii)Lender shall have the right to hire its own consultants (e.g., architect and/or engineer or other), to act on its behalf, to review the plans or specifications or construction contracts submitted for Lender’s review and to monitor construction, and Borrowers shall pay such reasonable consultants’ fees.

(f)Lender’s Discretion.  In the event that at any time any of the terms and conditions set forth in subparagraph (e) above are not satisfied, or if the insurance proceeds exceed the Restoration Threshold, then Lender shall have the option, in its sole discretion, of paying or applying all or any part of the insurance proceeds: (i) to the payment of the Obligations (without any Prepayment Premium) in such order as Lender may determine with any surplus to be distributed to Borrowers; or (ii) to the Restoration of the Improvements.

(g)Administrative Fee.  Lender shall receive an administrative fee equal to Two Hundred Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($250.00) for each disbursement of insurance proceeds made by it and Borrowers shall reimburse Lender for all costs incurred by Lender in connection with the foregoing including, but not limited to, reasonable consultants’ fees, reasonable Attorney’s Fees, and the fees and expenses of any construction loan administrator or servicer retained by Lender to administer the disbursement of insurance proceeds under this Section 2.07.

(h)Additional Security.  Borrowers shall execute, deliver, file and/or record, at its expense, such instruments as Lender reasonably requires to confirm and/or perfect Lender’s security interest in insurance proceeds and other rights granted pursuant to any Security Instrument.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may exercise all of its rights and remedies as a secured party under the UCC with respect to such Net Proceeds, Rent Loss Proceeds and other rights described above.

Section 2.08Condemnation.

(a)Notification of Lender, Etc.  Each Borrower will promptly notify Lender after obtaining actual knowledge thereof of any Taking with respect to its Property.  Each Borrower shall, at its expense, (i) diligently prosecute all Proceedings in connection with such Taking, (ii) deliver to Lender copies of all papers served in connection therewith; and (iii) consult and cooperate with Lender in the handling of such Proceedings.  No settlement of such Proceedings shall be made by any Borrower without Lender’s Approval (not to be unreasonably withheld).  Lender may (but shall not be obligated to do so), after consultation with Borrowers,  appear in and prosecute in its own name any such Proceeding or make any compromise or settlement in connection with any Taking, and the applicable Borrower will sign and deliver all commercially reasonable instruments requested by Lender to permit this participation.

(b)Payment of Award to Lender.  Any Award is hereby assigned, and, subject to Section 2.08(e) below, shall be paid, to Lender. Each Borrower authorizes Lender to collect and

receive all Awards, to give receipts for them, to accept them in the amount received without question or appeal, and/or to appeal any judgment, decree or order with respect to any Award. Each Borrower will sign and deliver all instruments reasonably requested by Lender to permit these actions.

(c)Application of Award.  Subject to Section 2.08(e) below, Lender may apply any Award in any order it determines (i) to reimburse Lender for all costs related to collection of the Award; and (ii) at Lender’s option, to (1) payment (without any Prepayment Premium) of all or part of the Obligations, whether or not then due and payable, in the order determined by Lender (provided that if any Obligations remain outstanding after this payment, the unpaid Obligations shall continue in full force and effect and Borrowers shall not be excused in the payment thereof); or (2) the Restoration.  If all or any portion of the Award is applied to the Obligations, unless Lender agrees otherwise, all regular installments of principal and interest payable under the Note shall continue to be due and payable as provided therein until the Obligations have been paid in full.  If any Borrower receives any Award required to be paid to Lender under Section 2.08(b) above, such Borrower shall promptly deliver such Award to Lender.  Notwithstanding anything in this Loan Agreement or at Law or in equity to the contrary, none of the Award paid to Lender shall be deemed trust funds and Lender may dispose of these proceeds as provided in this Section 2.08.  Upon any application of any Award to the Obligations, the Allocable Loan Amount for the Property subject to the Taking at issue shall be deemed reduced hereunder dollar for dollar until such Allocable Loan Amount equals zero, with any remaining Award reducing all other Allocable Loan Amounts proportionally.

(d)Payment of Obligations.  Notwithstanding any Taking, Borrowers shall continue to pay and perform the Obligations as provided in the Loan Documents. Any reduction in the Obligations due to application of the Award shall take effect only upon Lender’s actual receipt and application of the Award to the Obligations. If the applicable Property shall have been foreclosed, sold pursuant to any power of sale granted under the applicable Security Instrument, or transferred by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure prior to Lender’s actual receipt of the Award, Lender may apply the Award received to the extent of any deficiency upon such sale and the incurrence of costs by Lender in connection with such sale.

(e) Right to Award.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.08 to the contrary, so long as (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) Borrower can establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender that the Taking does not adversely impact the use of any building (or rentable square footage therein), amenity or parking area located on the Property, and (iii) Borrower restores the Property to the extent necessary as reasonably determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion, then such Award may, at Borrower’s election, be paid directly to Borrower or Lender shall pay over to Borrower, the amount of the Award actually received by Lender, less any amount due to Lender as reimbursement of its costs related to collection of the Award.

Section 2.09Certain Liens and Liabilities

.  Borrowers shall pay, bond in a manner Approved by Lender, or otherwise discharge all liens, security interests, encumbrances and charges (a) of mechanics, material men, laborers and other Persons for all materials supplied and work performed in respect of the Properties; (b) of judgment creditors; (c) intentionally omitted; and (d) created as a result of Borrowers’ consensual acts and not otherwise provided in clauses (a) – (c),

which in each case, if unpaid, might result in, or permit the creation of, a lien, security interest, encumbrance or charge on any Property other than a Permitted Encumbrance, and Borrowers shall, at their sole expense, do everything necessary to preserve the lien and security interest created by each Security Instrument and its priority.  Nothing in the Loan Documents shall be deemed or construed as constituting the Approval or request by Lender, express or implied, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer, mechanic or materialman for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any material for any improvement, construction, alteration, or repair of any of the Properties.  Borrowers further agree that Lender does not stand in any fiduciary relationship to any Borrower.  Any contributions made, directly or indirectly, to any Borrower by or on behalf of any of its partners, members, principals or any party related to such parties shall be treated as equity and shall be subordinate and inferior to the rights of Lender under the Loan Documents.

Section 2.10Tax and Insurance Deposits

.  Each Borrower shall deliver to Lender all tax bills, bond and assessment statements, statements of insurance premiums, and statements for any other Impositions as soon as practicable after the same are received by such Borrower.  Borrowers shall promptly notify Lender of any changes to the amounts, schedules and instructions for payment of the Impositions within thirty (30) days of Lender’s written request therefor, which shall not be requested more than is reasonable.  Borrowers shall make monthly Deposits to Lender in an amount sufficient to pay the Impositions at least thirty (30) days before they are due.  Lender shall estimate the amount of the Deposits until ascertainable.  At that time or at any other time that Lender reasonably determines that the Deposits are insufficient, Borrowers shall deposit any deficiency reasonably determined by Lender within five (5) Business Days after written notice from Lender.  During the continuation of any Default, each Borrower authorizes Lender or its agent to obtain the bills for Assessments directly from the appropriate Governmental Authority or other Person issuing such bill.  All Deposits are pledged to Lender and shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.  The Deposits shall be held by Lender without interest (except to the extent required by Law) and may be commingled with other funds.  If (a) there is no Event of Default at the time of payment, (b) Borrowers have delivered bills or invoices to Lender for the Impositions in sufficient time to pay them when due; and (c) the Deposits are sufficient to pay the Impositions or Borrowers have deposited the necessary additional amount, then Lender shall pay the Impositions prior to their due date.  Any Deposits remaining after payment of the Impositions shall, at Lender’s option, be credited against the Deposits required for the following year or paid to Borrowers.  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Deposits may, at Lender’s option, be applied to the Obligations in any order of priority, without relieving Borrowers of their obligation to pay the Impositions when they become due.  Any application to principal during an Event of Default shall be deemed a prepayment subject to the applicable Prepayment Premium.  Borrowers shall not claim any credit against the principal and interest due under the Note for the Deposits.  Upon an assignment or other transfer of the Note and this Loan Agreement, Lender shall pay over the Deposits in its possession to the assignee or transferee and then it shall be completely released from all liability with respect to the Deposits.  Borrowers shall look solely to the assignee or transferee with respect thereto.  This provision shall apply to every transfer of the Deposits to a new assignee or transferee.  Subject to Article III, a transfer of title to the Land shall automatically transfer to the new owner the beneficial interest in the Deposits.  Upon full payment and satisfaction of the Note and this Loan Agreement or, at Lender’s option, at any prior time, the balance of the Deposits in Lender’s possession shall be paid over to the Borrowers and no other party shall have any right or claim to the Deposits.  Lender may transfer all its rights and duties under this Section 2.10 to such servicer or financial institution as Lender may periodically

designate in writing to Borrowers and Borrowers agree to make the Deposits to such servicer or institution.

Section 2.11ERISA.

(a)Source of Funds.  Borrowers understand and acknowledge that, as of the date hereof, the source of funds from which Lender is extending the Loan will include one or more of the following accounts: (i) an “insurance company general account,” as that term is defined in Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 (60 Fed. Reg. 35925 (Jul. 12, 1995)), as amended (“PTE 95-60”) as to which Lender meets the conditions for relief in Sections I and IV thereof; (ii) pooled and single client insurance company separate accounts, which are subject to the provisions of ERISA; and (iii) one or more insurance company separate accounts maintained solely in connection with fixed contractual obligations of the insurance company, under which the amounts payable or credited to the plan are not affected in any manner by the investment performance of the separate account.

(b)Prohibited Transaction.  (1) Lender covenants, represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Loan Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder, including an extension of any Loan, do not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code by reason of PTE 95-60 or another applicable exemption, all of the conditions of which are and will be met; and (2) subject to Lender’s compliance with, and the accuracy of the representation in, clause (b)(1) immediately above, Borrowers covenant, represent and warrant that they shall not engage in any transaction which would cause any obligation or action, taken or to be taken, to be a non-exempt (under a statutory or administrative class exemption) prohibited transaction under ERISA.

(c)Certification.  Borrowers shall deliver to Lender such certifications and/or other evidence periodically requested by Lender, in its sole discretion, to verify the covenants, representations and warranties in Section 2.11(b) above.  Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, no sale, assignment, or transfer of any direct or indirect right, title, or interest in any Borrower or any Property (including creation of a junior lien, encumbrance or leasehold interest) shall be permitted which would, in Lender’s reasonable opinion, negate Borrowers’ representations in this Section 2.11 or cause an ERISA Violation.  At least fifteen (15) days before consummation of any of the foregoing, Borrowers shall obtain from the proposed transferee or lienholder (i) a certification to Lender that the covenants, representations and warranties of this Section 2.11 will be true after consummation; and (ii) an agreement to comply with this Section 2.11.

(d)Survival.  The Obligations of Borrowers under this Section 2.11 shall survive repayment and performance of the other Obligations and any transfer of title to the Properties or any portion thereof by foreclosure sale under any Security Instrument or by deed in lieu of such foreclosure.

Section 2.12Environmental Indemnity

.  Borrowers shall comply with all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Environmental Indemnity, and hereby re-make all covenants, representations and warranties made by them in the Environmental Indemnity, which are incorporated in this Loan Agreement by reference as if fully set forth herein.  Subject to the

limitations set forth in the Environmental Indemnity, the Obligations of Borrowers under this Section 2.12 shall survive repayment and performance of the other Obligations and any transfer of title to the Properties or any portion thereof by foreclosure sale under any Security Instrument or by deed in lieu of such foreclosure.

Section 2.13Electronic Payments

.  Unless directed otherwise in writing by Lender, all payments due under the Loan Documents shall be made by electronic funds transfer debit entries to one or more Borrower accounts at an Automated Clearing House member bank reasonably satisfactory to Lender or by similar electronic transfer process selected by Lender. Each payment due under the Loan Documents shall be initiated by Lender, its loan servicer or such other party as Lender may designate, through the Automated Clearing House network (or similar electronic process) for settlement on the due date for the payment. Borrowers shall, at Borrowers’ sole cost and expense, direct their respective bank in writing to permit such electronic fund transfer debit entries (or similar electronic transfer) to be made by Lender, its loan servicer or such other party as Lender may designate.  Prior to the due date for each payment under the Loan Documents, Borrowers shall deposit and/or maintain sufficient funds in Borrowers’ account(s) to cover each debit entry. Any charges or costs, if any, by Borrowers’ bank(s) for the foregoing shall be paid by Borrowers.

Section 2.14Inspection

.  Borrowers shall allow Lender and any Person designated by Lender to, upon not less than forty-eight (48) hours prior notice to (or less notice in cases in which Lender reasonably determines that access is necessary in order to prevent injury to persons or material loss of property) enter upon the Properties and conduct tests or inspect the Properties at all reasonable times, subject to the rights of Tenants under the Leases. Borrowers shall assist Lender and such Person in effecting said inspection.

Section 2.15Records, Reports, and Audits

(b)If the Principal shall fail to maintain during the term of the Loan (i) a Net Worth of at least the Minimum Net Worth; and/or (ii) Liquid Assets of at least the Minimum Liquid Assets, then, not later than ninety (90) days following Lender’s written request, Borrowers shall provide to Lender for its prior written approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), a substitute Principal or Principals and documentation to verify that such substitute Principal or Principals, together with any other Principal(s), are in Control of Borrowers and collectively maintain (1) a Net Worth of at least the Minimum Net Worth; and (2) Liquid Assets of at least the Minimum Liquid Assets.  If written consent is given by Lender, such substitute Principal or Principals shall execute and deliver to Lender, within thirty (30) days after Lender consents in writing to the substitute Principal or Principals, a limited guaranty, an environmental indemnity agreement and a Principal(s)’ certificate identical (except as to the name of the obligor thereunder and similar conforming changes) in form and substance to the Limited Guaranty, the Environmental Indemnity and the Principal’s Closing Certificate, respectively, executed by the Principal or Principals who failed to collectively maintain (x) a Net Worth of at least the Minimum Net Worth; and/or (y) Liquid Assets of at least the Minimum Liquid Assets.

(c)Borrowers shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including Attorneys’ Fees, incurred by Lender in connection with any request for written consent by Lender under this Section 3.03, whether or not such consent is granted, and the preparation and execution of any documentation required under this Section 3.03.

Section 3.04Leases.

(a)Subordination of Leases.  Unless otherwise Approved by Lender or as set forth in any Leases extant at the inception of this Loan, all Leases shall be absolutely subordinate to the lien of the applicable Security Instrument, but may contain a provision reasonably satisfactory to Lender that, in the event of the exercise of the private power of sale or a judicial foreclosure thereunder, such Lease, at the sole and exclusive option of the purchaser at such sale, shall not be terminated and the Tenant thereunder shall attorn to such purchaser and, if requested to do so, shall enter into a new Lease for the balance of the term then remaining upon the same terms and conditions.

(b)Obligations of Borrowers as to Leases.  Borrowers: (i) shall observe and perform in all material respects all the obligations imposed upon each Borrower, as lessor under the Leases; (ii) shall enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of lessee thereunder to be observed or performed; (iii) shall not collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in advance except as otherwise expressly required per the terms of the applicable Lease; (iv) except in connection with this Loan, shall not execute any other assignment of lessor’s interest in the Leases or the Rents; (v) shall not, without Lender’s Approval, surrender or terminate or consent to the cancellation, surrender or termination of any Lease or any part thereof, now existing or hereafter made, or consent to the release of any party thereto, except in the ordinary course of operating the Properties; (vi) shall not convey or transfer or suffer or permit a conveyance

or transfer of any Property or of any interest therein so as to effect a merger of the estates and rights of, or a termination or diminution of the obligations of, any Tenant thereunder; (vii) shall not consent to any assignment of or subletting under the Leases not in accordance with their terms or in the ordinary course of operating the applicable Property; (viii) shall execute and deliver at the request of Lender all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Properties as Lender shall from time to time reasonably require; and (ix) shall notify Lender of any default of any Tenant or any Borrower or any circumstance or other event arising under a Lease in each case that would entitle or permit any Borrower or any Tenant to cancel the Lease, abate any rent payable thereunder, or pursue any “self-help” remedy thereunder.  If requested by Lender, Borrowers shall deliver to Lender an estoppel certificate from each Tenant under any Lease on Lender’s then-current form of tenant estoppel certificate.

(c)New Leases, Amendment, Modification, Etc., of Leases.

(i)Each Lease for any portion of the Properties entered into after the date of this Loan Agreement shall be subject to Lender’s Approval, and as a condition to granting such Approval, Lender may require a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement (“SNDA”) among Lender, the applicable Borrower, and the Tenant, which agreement shall (1) subject and subordinate such Lease to the lien and terms of the applicable Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, (2) subordinate the Tenant’s rights to casualty and condemnation proceeds and (3) be on Lender’s then-current form with reasonable modifications as may be requested by any Tenant or, if a form SNDA is attached to any Lease with a national Tenant, be on such form, subject to reasonable modifications requested by Lender; provided, however, no such SNDA shall be required from any Tenant whose Lease is self-subordinating.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lease entered into after the date of this Loan Agreement shall contain a provision stating that (x) the Tenant uses, generates, stores and disposes of no Hazardous Material, except those customarily and currently used in the Tenant’s normal business operations (which Hazardous Material is to be identified in an exhibit to the Lease and which shall be, in any event, subject to Lender’s Approval), and that in any event all such Hazardous Material will only be used in the leased premises (A) in non-reportable quantities; and (B) in compliance with all Environmental Requirements; and (y) any secured lender of the applicable Borrower may conduct periodic inspections at the expense of such Borrower to verify that such use, storage, generation, treatment, disposal or release is in compliance with all Environmental Requirements (provided, however, the foregoing shall not prohibit any Borrower from requiring that such Tenant reimburse such Borrower for such costs).  Borrowers agree that the use of any such Hazardous Material shall be subject to the review and approval of Lender’s environmental consultant.  Borrowers shall include in all Leases entered into after Closing a prohibition against the production, manufacture, possession, distribution or sale of marijuana, cannabis or their byproducts; provided, however, a Lease may permit the possession, distribution and sale of CBD and hemp products at a Property where such possession, distribution or sale does not violate any applicable Laws.

(ii)Notwithstanding clause (i) above, so long as no Event of Default shall be continuing, Lender’s Approval shall not be required for any Lease entered into after the date of this Loan Agreement if the Tenant under such Lease and its Affiliates are then leasing space pursuant to one or more Leases aggregating ten percent (10%) or less of the applicable Property’s

net rentable area (after giving effect to the proposed Lease); provided that (A) the Lease is on a standard form lease previously Approved by Lender without the addition of, or material modification to, any Material Term; (B) the Lease represents a bona-fide arm’s length transaction with a third party not Affiliated with the applicable Borrower; and (C) the Lease provides for a market term of at least three (3) years and no more than fifteen (15) years and the payment of market rents.

(iii) Borrowers shall not, without Lender’s Approval, amend, modify, extend, renew or supplement any Lease if (A) any Borrower’s execution of such Lease required Lender’s Approval when entered into (or, with respect to Leases extant at the inception of this Loan Agreement, the Lease is of the type that would have required Lender’s Approval if entered into after the date hereof); or (B) such Lease, after giving effect to the proposed amendment, modification, extension, renewal or supplement, would be a Lease of the type that would have required Lender’s Approval.

(iv)Borrowers shall promptly give Lender written notice, together with a fully executed and completed copy of all Leases, amendments and modifications entered into after the date of this Loan Agreement, whether or not Lender’s Approval is required.  In addition, Borrowers shall submit Microsoft Word copies of all Leases and other documents required to be Approved by Lender under this Section 3.04.

(v)If Lender’s Approval is required for any Lease or any amendment or modification of a Lease and Borrowers request Lender’s Approval in writing, and such written request is neither Approved nor denied within ten (10) Business Days following Lender’s receipt (together with the Lease or the amendment or modification (as applicable), a comparison of the proposed, unexecuted Lease to Borrowers’ standard form lease previously Approved by Lender (as applicable), Tenant financials, if appropriate, and such other documentation which Lender may reasonably request), Lender’s Approval shall be deemed given; provided that Borrowers’ request for Lender’s Approval shall bear the following legend typed in bold, capital letters at the top:  “IF LENDER SHALL FAIL TO EITHER APPROVE OR DENY BORROWERS’ REQUEST FOR LENDER’S APPROVAL OF THE ENCLOSED PROPOSED LEASE OR PROPOSED AMENDMENT OR MODIFICATION OF A LEASE WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER LENDER’S RECEIPT HEREOF, LENDER SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE APPROVED SUCH LEASE OR AMENDMENT OR MODIFICATION”; and provided, further that, the deemed Approval provision in this sentence shall not apply in the event the Lease or amendment or modification of a Lease, or the request for such Lease or amendment or modification of a Lease, does not comply with the provisions of this subsection.

(s)the occurrence of any event or circumstance identified as an “Event of Default” under any Loan Document other than this Loan Agreement; and

(t)except for the occurrence of the events listed in the other clauses of this Section 4.01, if Borrowers fail to perform or comply with any other provision contained in this Loan Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents and such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof by Lender (the “Grace Period”); provided, however, that the Grace Period may be extended for up to an additional sixty (60) days (for a total of ninety (90) days from the date of Default) if (i) Borrowers commence and diligently pursue the cure of such Default and deliver (within the Grace Period) to Lender a written request for more time; and (ii) Lender determines in good faith that (A) such Default cannot be cured within the Grace Period but can be cured within ninety (90) days after the Default; (B) no lien or security interest created by the Loan Documents will be impaired prior to completion of such cure; and (C) Lender’s immediate exercise of any remedies provided hereunder or by Law is not necessary for the protection or preservation of one or more of the Properties or Lender’s security interest.

Section 4.02Remedies

.  If an Event of Default occurs, Lender, or any Person designated by Lender, may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action (separately, concurrently, cumulatively, and at any time and in any order) permitted under any Laws, without notice, demand, presentment, or protest (all of which are hereby waived), to protect and enforce Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents or Laws including the following actions:

(a)accelerate and declare the entire unpaid Obligations, or any part thereof represented by a promissory note constituting one of the Severed Loan Documents, in Lender’s sole discretion, immediately due and payable, except for Events of Defaults under Section 4.01(i) or (j) which shall automatically make the Obligations immediately due and payable;

(b)recover judgment on the Note either before, during or after any Proceedings for the enforcement of the Loan Documents and without any requirement of any action being taken to (i) realize on any Property; or (ii) otherwise enforce the Loan Documents;

(c)seek specific performance of any provisions in the Loan Documents;

(d)apply any Deposits to the following items in any order and in Lender’s sole discretion: (i) the Obligations; (ii) costs incurred by Lender in administering or enforcing its rights under this Loan Agreement; (iii) advances made by Lender under the Loan Documents; or (iv) the Impositions; or

(e)exercise any remedies specifically provided for in, or available pursuant to Law under, any Security Instrument or other Loan Document.

With respect to Borrowers and the Properties, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any individual Property for the satisfaction of any of the Obligations in preference or priority to any other individual Property, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of all of the Properties or any part thereof, in its sole and

absolute discretion in respect of the Obligations.  In the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan pursuant to subsection (a) above, Lender may foreclose one or more of the Security Instruments to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by one or more of the Security Instruments as Lender may elect.  Notwithstanding foreclosure under one or more of the Security Instruments, the Properties subject to the Security Instruments under which no foreclosure has occurred shall remain subject to such Security Instruments to secure payment of the remainder of the Obligations outstanding and not previously recovered.

Following and during an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, security instruments and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder.  Borrowers shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the written request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender.  Each Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, such Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until five (5) days after written notice has been given to Borrowers by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power and Borrowers have failed to so execute such requested documentation.  The Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrowers only as of the date of this Loan Agreement.

Section 4.03Expenses

.  All costs, expenses, or other amounts paid or incurred by Lender in the exercise of its rights under the Loan Documents including, without limitation, Attorneys’ Fees, together with interest thereon at the applicable interest rate specified in the Note, which shall be the Default Rate unless prohibited by Law, shall be (a) part of the Obligations; (b) secured by the Security Instruments; and (c) allowed and included as part of the Obligations in any foreclosure, decree for sale, or other judgment or decree enforcing Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents.

Section 4.04Additional Provisions as to Remedies

.  No failure, refusal, waiver, or delay by Lender to exercise any rights under the Loan Documents upon any Event of Default shall impair Lender’s rights or be construed as a waiver of, or acquiescence to, such or any subsequent Default or Event of Default. No recovery of any judgment by Lender and no levy of an execution upon any of the Properties or any other property of Borrowers shall affect the lien and security interest created by the Security Instruments and such liens, rights, powers, and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before. Lender may resort to any security given by the Security Instruments or any other security now given or hereafter existing to secure the Obligations, in whole or in part, in such portions and in such order as Lender may deem advisable, and no such action shall be construed as a waiver of any of the liens, rights, or benefits granted hereunder. Acceptance of any payment

after any Event of Default shall not be deemed a waiver or a cure of such Event of Default and such acceptance shall be deemed an acceptance on account only.

Section 4.05Continuing Events of Default

.  Whenever in the Loan Documents there is a provision that references an Event of Default “continuing” or “existing,” or words of similar effect, such provision shall not be interpreted or construed to imply that any Borrower has any right to cure or remedy any Event of Default, or that Lender has any obligation to accept any cure or remedy proposed, tendered or offered; it being acknowledged and agreed that all applicable notice and cure rights are built into the definition of “Event of Default”.  Any Event of Default, having once occurred, shall continue to exist regardless of (a) any attempt by any Borrower, or on any Borrower’s behalf, to cure or remedy same, and (b) any course of dealing between any Borrower and Lender after the occurrence of such Event of Default (including, but not limited to, Lender’s acceptance of performance by any Borrower of other obligations of such Borrower under the Loan Documents), in each case unless and until Lender agrees in writing that such Event of Default no longer exists (which agreement Lender may make or withhold in its sole and absolute discretion).

Section 4.06Waiver of Rights and Defenses

.  To the fullest extent each Borrower may do so by Law, each Borrower (a) will not at any time insist on, plead, claim, or take the benefit of any Law now or later enacted providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium or redemption; (b) for itself, its successors and assigns, and for any Person ever claiming an interest in any of the Properties (other than Lender), waives and releases all rights of redemption, reinstatement, valuation, appraisement, notice of intention to mature or declare due the whole of the Obligations, all rights to a marshaling of the assets of Borrowers, including the Properties, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation, in the event of foreclosure (or extinguishment by transfer of title by power of sale) of the liens and security interests created under the Loan Documents; and (c) shall not be relieved of its obligation to pay the Obligations as required in the Loan Documents nor shall the lien or priority of the Loan Documents be impaired by any agreement renewing, extending, or modifying the time of payment or the provisions of the Loan Documents (including a modification of any interest rate), unless expressly released, discharged, or modified by such agreement. Regardless of consideration and without any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien, security interest, encumbrance, right, title, or interest in or to the Properties, Lender may (i) release any Person liable for payment of the Obligations or any portion thereof or any part of the security held for the Obligations; or (ii) agree, with the other party(ies) thereto, to modify any of the provisions of the Loan Documents without impairing or affecting the Loan Documents or the lien, security interest, or the priority of the modified Loan Documents as security for the Obligations over any such subordinate lien, security interest, encumbrance, right, title, or interest.

Article V - LIMITATION ON PERSONAL LIABILITY

Section 5.01Limited Recourse Liability

.  Lender will not hold any Borrower personally liable for repayment of the Obligations or any other sums due under the Loan Documents, or for any deficiency established after judicial foreclosure, except to the extent of such Borrower’s interest in its respective Property and all other collateral given as security for the Loan; provided, however, that:

(iii) any Borrower’s failure to deliver to Lender or its assignee(s), at its or their written request and following foreclosure of its Property, any tangible Personal Property in which Lender has a security interest, including Leases, books, records and files relating to the leasing, use, enjoyment, occupancy, operation or maintenance of such Property in such Borrower’s possession or which such Borrower may readily obtain, or any Personal Property taken from such Property by or on behalf of such Borrower and not replaced with Personal Property of materially the same utility and of the same or greater value;

(viii)any act of intentional physical waste or arson by any Borrower Party;

(xi)any Borrower’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 3.03 of this Loan Agreement;

(xii)failure of Borrowers to timely pay any assessments or other amounts due pursuant to the terms of the Suffolk Downs Condominium Documents;

(xiii)any of the matters identified on the “Disclosed Matters” schedule attached to the ShopRite Estoppel Certificate; provided, however, that (A) this Section 5.01(b)(xiii) shall no longer apply if Borrower delivers to Lender an estoppel certificate from ShopRite that omits all exceptions and alleged breaches of lease set forth in the ShopRite Estoppel Certificate and includes no new allegations by Shoprite of any landlord defaults or breaches and that is otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Lender and (B) Lender will, upon Borrower’s request, confirm in writing that Lender is satisfied with such updated ShopRite estoppel certificate and that this Section 5.01(b)(xiii) is no longer applicable; and

(c)the foregoing limitation of liability shall not apply and the Loan will be fully recourse to Borrowers in the event:

(i)of any fraud by any Borrower or any Principal;

(ii)of a Prohibited Transfer, other than (A) easements and other similar encumbrances (or amendments thereto) that may not be permitted under the Loan Documents, but which are entered into by any Borrower in the ordinary course of business for use, access, water and sewer lines, telephones and telegraph lines, electric lines or other utilities or for other similar purposes, provided that no such easement or other similar encumbrance shall materially impair the use, operation or value of any Property, (B) leases or licenses for separately demised premises at a Property, or (C) any condemnation proceedings;

(iii)that any Borrower, any Principal or any Person having Control of any Borrower or any Principal commences a voluntary Bankruptcy Proceeding; or

Article VI - INDEMNIFICATION

Section 6.01General Indemnity

.  Borrowers agree that while Lender has no liability to any Person in tort or otherwise as lender and that Lender is not an owner or operator of the Properties, Borrowers shall, at their sole expense, Indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any Losses imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties, directly or

indirectly, arising out of or in connection with (a) the ownership or operation of any of the Properties; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any Losses caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties not covered by Borrowers’ insurance; (b) the Transaction Taxes; and (c) any and all obligations of Borrowers and the Principals under the Environmental Indemnity.

Section 7.06 Miscellaneous.

(a)Severability.  If any provision of the Loan Documents shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, this shall not affect any other provisions of the Loan Documents and such provision shall be limited and construed as if it were not in the Loan Documents.

(b)Vesting of Title in Another Person.  If title to any Property becomes vested in any Person other than the applicable Borrower, Lender may, without notice to such Borrower, deal with such Person regarding the Loan Documents or the Obligations in the same manner as with such Borrower without in any way vitiating or discharging such Borrower’s liability under the Loan Documents or being deemed to have Approved or otherwise consented to the vesting.

(c)Merger of Estates.  If both the lessor’s and lessee’s interest under any Lease ever becomes vested in any one Person, this Loan Agreement and the lien and security interest created by the Loan Documents shall not be destroyed or terminated by the application of the doctrine of merger and Lender shall continue to have and enjoy all its rights and privileges as to each separate estate. Upon foreclosure of any of the Security Instruments, none of the Leases applicable to such Property shall be destroyed or terminated as a result of such foreclosure (or sale), by application of the doctrine of merger or as a matter of Law, unless Lender takes all actions required by Law to terminate the Leases as a result of such foreclosure (or sale).

(d)Covenants Running with the Land; Time of the Essence.  All of Borrowers’ covenants and agreements under the Loan Documents shall run with the land, and time shall be of the essence with respect to the performance of such covenants and agreements by each Borrower.

(e)Lender as Attorney-In-Fact.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Borrower appoints Lender as its respective attorney-in-fact with respect to the execution, acknowledgment, delivery, filing or recording for and in the name of such Borrower of any of the documents which such Borrower is required to execute, acknowledge, deliver, file or record under this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents if such Borrower fails to timely execute such documentation.  Whenever this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents provides for the appointment of Lender as attorney-in-fact for Borrower, whether pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence or otherwise, each such appointment shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest and irrevocable.

(f)Amendments, Etc. in Writing.  The Loan Documents cannot be amended, terminated, or discharged except in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No waiver, release, or other forbearance by Lender will be effective unless it is in a writing signed by Lender and then only to the extent expressly stated.

(g)Successors and Assigns.  The provisions of  this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon Borrowers and their respective heirs, devisees, representatives, successors, and assigns including successors in interest to the Properties and shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its heirs, successors, substitutes, and assigns.

(h)Joint and Several Obligations.  Where two or more Borrower Parties have executed the Loan Documents, the obligations of such Borrower Parties shall be joint and several, except to the extent the context clearly indicates otherwise.

(i)Counterparts.  The Loan Documents may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all parties had executed the same document. All such counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one instrument, but in making proof hereof it shall only be necessary to produce one such counterpart.

(j)Loss of Loan Document.  Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Loan Document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Loan Document, Borrowers will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Loan Document, dated the date of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Loan Document containing the same provisions.

(k)No Liability for Reports, Etc.  Any reviews, inspections, reports, Approvals or similar items conducted, made or produced by or on behalf of Lender with respect to any or all of the Borrowers, the Properties or the Loan are for loan underwriting and servicing purposes only, and shall not constitute an acknowledgment, representation or warranty of the accuracy thereof, or an assumption of liability with respect to Borrowers, Borrowers’ contractors, architects, engineers, employees, agents or invitees, present or future tenants, occupants or owners of the Properties, or any other party.

(l)Entire Agreement.  The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement between Borrowers and Lender with respect to the Loan and supersede all prior written or oral understandings and agreements with respect to the Loan including the Loan application and Loan Commitment and Borrowers are not relying on any representations or warranties of Lender except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents.

(m)Incorporation of Recitals and Exhibits.  The recitals set forth in this Loan Agreement, Annex A hereto, and all exhibits to this Loan Agreement are incorporated herein and shall be deemed an integral part of this Loan Agreement.

(n)Correction of Loan Documents.  If Lender determines that the Note, this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents contains any provision with regard to the amount of the Loan, the interest rate or the payment of principal or interest that erroneously does not conform to the terms and conditions of the Loan Commitment (it being agreed that negotiated changes to the Loan Documents shall not be deemed to be erroneous deviations from the Loan Commitment), Borrowers agree to execute and deliver to Lender upon request any and all amendments, restated Loan Documents or other instruments, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Borrowers and Lender, correcting such erroneous provision.

Section 7.07Release of Property

.  At any time after the expiration of the Lock-Out Period, Borrowers shall have the one-time right to request in writing Lender’s consent to the release (the “Release”) of one of the Properties (such released property, the “Released Property”) from the lien of the applicable Security Instrument or any other security instrument encumbering the Released Property upon and subject to the following terms and conditions (it being understood that Lender shall endeavor to effect such Release on the date specified in Borrowers’ written request, but no earlier than twenty-five (25) Business Days after receipt of Borrowers’ written request):

Section 7.09 Contributions and Waivers.

(a)As a result of the transactions contemplated by this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Borrower will benefit, directly and indirectly, from each other Borrower’s obligation to pay the Obligations, and in consideration therefore, each Borrower agrees among themselves as set forth in this Section 7.09 to allocate such benefits among themselves and to provide a fair and equitable agreement to make contributions among each of Borrowers in the event any payment is made by any individual Borrower hereunder to Lender (such payment being referred to herein as a “Contribution,” and for purposes of this Section, includes any exercise of recourse by Lender against any Property of a Borrower and application of proceeds of such Property in satisfaction of such Borrower’s obligations, to Lender under the Loan Documents).

(b)Each Borrower shall be liable hereunder with respect to the Obligations only for such total maximum amount (if any) that would not render its granting of a lien pursuant to a Security Instrument hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of applicable Laws, the intent of the parties being that the total maximum amount of the Obligations allocated to an individual Borrower shall be the amount that is reasonably equivalent value with respect to the lien of the Security Agreement granted by such Borrower, and no more.

(c)In order to provide for a fair and equitable contribution among Borrowers in the event that any Contribution is made by an individual Borrower (a “Funding Borrower”), such Funding Borrower shall be entitled to a reimbursement Contribution (“Reimbursement Contribution”) from all other Borrowers for all payments made and damages and expenses incurred by that Funding Borrower in discharging any of the Obligations, in the manner and to the extent set forth in this Section.

(d)For purposes hereof, the “Benefit Amount” of any individual Borrower as of any date of determination shall be the net value of the benefits to such Borrower and its Affiliates that are not Borrowers from extensions of credit made by Lender to (i) such Borrower and (ii) to the other Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to the extent such other Borrowers have guaranteed or mortgaged their property to secure the Obligations of such Borrower to Lender.

(e)Each Borrower shall be liable to a Funding Borrower in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the (A) ratio of the Benefit Amount of such Borrower to the total amount, as of the origination of the Loan, of the Obligations, multiplied by (B) the amount of Obligations paid by

such Funding Borrower, or (ii) ninety-five percent (95%) of the excess of the fair saleable value of the property of such Borrower over the total liabilities of such Borrower (including the maximum amount reasonably expected to become due in respect of contingent liabilities) determined as of the date on which the payment made by a Funding Borrower is deemed made for purposes hereof (giving effect to all payments made by other Funding Borrowers as of such date in a manner to maximize the amount of such Contributions).

(f)In the event that at any time there exists more than one Funding Borrower with respect to any Contribution (in any such case, the “Applicable Contribution”), then Reimbursement Contributions from other Borrowers pursuant hereto shall be allocated among such Funding Borrowers in the proportion that the total amount of the Contribution made for or on account of the other Borrowers by each such Funding Borrower is of the Applicable Contribution.  In the event that at any time any Borrower pays an amount hereunder in excess of the amount calculated pursuant to this Section above, that Borrower shall be deemed to be a Funding Borrower to the extent of such excess and shall be entitled to a Reimbursement Contribution from the other Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of this Section.

(g)Each Borrower acknowledges that the right to a Reimbursement Contribution hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of the Borrower to which such Reimbursement Contribution is owing, and that such asset is valuable and constitutes consideration for that Borrower’s entry into this Loan Agreement.

(h)No Reimbursement Contribution payments payable by a Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Section shall be paid until all amounts then due and payable by all Borrowers to Lender, pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, are paid in full in cash.  Nothing contained in this Section shall limit or affect in any way the Obligations of any Borrower to Lender under the Loan Documents.

(i)To the extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Borrower waives:

(i)any right to require Lender to proceed against any other Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by Lender at any time or to pursue any other remedy in Lender’s power before proceeding against such Borrower;

(ii)any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other Borrower, any guarantor of any other Person or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of any other Borrower or any guarantor from any cause other than full payment of all sums payable under the Loan Documents;

(iii)any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any other Borrower or any principal of any other Borrower or any defect in the formation of any other Borrower or any principal of any other Borrower;

(iv)any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects more burdensome than that of a principal;

(v)any defense based upon any failure by Lender to obtain collateral for the indebtedness or failure by Lender to perfect a lien on any collateral;

(vi)presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind;

(vii)any defense based upon any failure of Lender to give notice of sale or other disposition of any collateral to any other Borrower or to any other Person or any defect in any notice that may be given in connection with any sale or disposition of any collateral;

(viii)any defense based upon any failure of Lender to comply with applicable Laws in connection with the sale or other disposition of any collateral, including any failure of Lender to conduct a commercially reasonable sale or other disposition of any collateral;

(ix)any defense based upon any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(x)any defense based upon any agreement or stipulation entered into by Lender with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any Bankruptcy Proceeding;

(xi)any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(xii)any defense based upon the avoidance of any security interest in favor of Lender for any reason;

(xiii)any defense based upon any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation or dissolution proceeding, including any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any of the obligations evidenced by the Note or owing under any of the Loan Documents;

(xiv)any defense or benefit (other than actual payment or performance) based upon such Borrower’s, or any other party’s, designation of the portion of any obligation secured by any Security Instrument to be satisfied by any payment from any other Borrower or any such party;

(xv)all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender even though the election of remedies, such as non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for the Loan or any other amounts owing under the Loan Documents, has extinguished such Borrower’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against any other Borrower; and

(xvi)all rights and defenses that such Borrower may have because any of the Debt is secured by real property.  This means, among other things (subject to the other terms and conditions of the Loan Documents): (1) Lender may collect from such Borrower without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any other Borrower, and (2) if Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any other Borrower, (I) the amount of the Debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price and (II) Lender may collect from such Borrower even if any other Borrower, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has

extinguished any right such Borrower may have to collect from any other Borrower.  This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses such Borrower may have because any of the Debt is secured by real property; and except as may be expressly and specifically permitted herein, a waiver of any claim or other right which such Borrower might now have or hereafter acquire against any other Borrower or any other Person that arises from the existence or performance of any obligations under the Loan Documents, including any of the following: (i) any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, or indemnification; or (ii) any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Lender against any other Borrower or any collateral security therefor, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law.

(j)Each Borrower hereby restates and makes the waivers made by Principal in the Limited Guaranty for the benefit of Lender.  Such waivers are hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein (and as if applicable to each Borrower) and shall be effective for all purposes under the Loan (including, without limitation, in the event that any Borrower is deemed to be a surety or guarantor of the Debt (by virtue of each Borrower being a co-obligor and jointly and severally liable hereunder, by virtue of each Borrower encumbering its interest in its Property for the benefit or debts of the other Borrowers in connection herewith or otherwise)).
