                                     ------

Item 1.   Business
- -------   --------

      Established in 1983, Overseas Partners Ltd. ("OPL") is one of the world's
largest multi-line reinsurance companies.  Specializing in non-catastrophe lines
of reinsurance, OPL provides shipper's risk, property, workers' compensation,
automobile, aviation, marine, finite risk and other specialty reinsurance
products.  Overseas is also engaged in the real estate, leasing and hotel
business.  Overseas' headquarters is located in Bermuda and its stewardship and
reinsurance activities are conducted from Bermuda,  one of the world's foremost
reinsurance markets.

      Overseas' primary source of business is reinsurance.  Its largest single
reinsurance program is the reinsurance of Shipper's Risk insurance issued by
United States based insurance companies covering loss or damage to packages
carried by subsidiaries of UPS.  In addition, Overseas offers various types of
reinsurance to a number of insurers.  Currently, Overseas has treaty
relationships with Hannover Re, Liberty Mutual Fire Insurance Company,
Prudential Property and Casualty Insurance Co., American International Specialty
Lines Insurance Co., Motors Insurance Corporation, Associated Industries
Insurance Company, Inc., M.E. Brockbank Esq., ERC Frankona, Lexington Insurance
Company, QBE International Insurance Limited, Mutual Marine Office, Life
Reinsurance Corporation and several leading Lloyd's syndicates.  Overseas
reinsurance business is carried on by OPL and by Overseas Partners Re Ltd. ("OP
Re"), a wholly-owned subsidiary.  Both OPL and OP Re are Class III reinsurers
under the laws of Bermuda.

      OPL's United States based subsidiary, Overseas Partners Capital Corp.
("OPCC"), is engaged in the real estate and leasing and hotel businesses.  See
Leasing, Real Estate and Hotel Activities at page 7 hereof.

      Information concerning Overseas' identifiable assets, revenues and
operating income relating to Overseas' reinsurance and real estate and leasing
activities is set forth in Note 9 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements.  See "Item 8 -- Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" below.

REINSURANCE ACTIVITIES
- ----------------------

Reinsurance of Shipper's Risk Insurance
- ---------------------------------------

      Generally, UPS customers who wish to insure their packages for amounts
greater than $100 may do so by paying a premium of 35 cents per $100 of declared
value (or their equivalents in non-US currencies) with similar arrangements
internationally. Shipper's Risk insurance premiums on packages carried in the
United States are remitted on the shipper's behalf to United States based
insurance companies who provide the primary insurance against the risks of loss
or damage in excess of $100 to the shipper's packages, unless the shipper
directs otherwise.  Similar arrangements are in effect for international origins
and destinations.

      This insurance is currently reinsured by OPL, for which it receives
premiums equal to the excess value charges received by the primary insurer less
a ceding commission and certain taxes and expenses.  OPL reimburses the primary
property and casualty insurer for the losses it pays on the Shipper's Risk
insurance.  Earned premiums from Shipper's Risk reinsurance constituted 57.4%,
71.8% and 77.6% of Overseas' reinsurance premiums earned in 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

      The reinsurance of Shipper's Risk insurance does not involve transactions
between UPS and OPL.  National Union Fire Insurance Company, New Hampshire
Insurance Company, Abeille General Insurance Company and Nichido Fire and Marine
Insurance Company, subsidiaries of American International Group, Inc. ("AIG"),
insure customer packages in return for premiums paid by the customers. All of
the primary insurers have been assigned ratings of A++ (superior) by A. M. Best
Company, Inc., a leading analyst of insurance companies.

Other Property and Casualty Reinsurance
- ---------------------------------------

      Overseas' other property and casualty reinsurance business grew
significantly in 1997. Reinsurance premiums written for other reinsurance
amounted to over $353 million, an increase of 97% over 1996.  The types of Other
Reinsurance OPL and OP Re participates in includes property, workers'
compensation, automobile, aviation, marine, finite risk and other specialty
reinsurance products.

      OPL reinsures workers' compensation insurance for employees of a UPS
subsidiary located in the State of California.  The primary insurer is Liberty
Mutual Fire Insurance Company, an affiliate of the Liberty Mutual Group, which
was assigned a rating of A (excellent) by A. M. Best Company, Inc.  OPL's
liability is limited to $500,000 per occurrence.  Overseas also reinsures
workers' compensation insurance underwritten by Associated Industries Insurance
Company, Inc.  In 1997, workers' compensation reinsurance premiums written
increased $37.6 million primarily as a result of the Liberty Mutual policy
period including eight months in 1996 compared to 12 months in 1997.

      Sixteen new reinsurance arrangements were added to Other Reinsurance in
1997.  Eight of these new programs were additions to the property line of
business.  Gross premiums written of $98.7 million were produced by establishing
relationships with M.E. Brockbank Esq., ERC Frankona, Lexington Insurance
Company and QBE International Insurance Limited.  OPL also expanded its business
with Prudential Property and Casualty Insurance Co. and Motors Insurance
Corporation.  Two new automobile liability programs were written in 1997,
generating $23.6 million in premiums written.  Aviation and marine, one of OPL's
new lines of reinsurance, added five new programs in 1997.  $37.7 million in
premiums were generated by working with several leading Lloyd's syndicates as
well as ERC Frankona and Mutual Marine Office, Inc.  For the first time, medical
benefits reinsurance business was written through a program with Life
Reinsurance Corporation.

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
      In 1997, OPL renewed, or continued to participate in, many of the programs
reinsured in 1996.  Among them are U.S. homeowners policies with Prudential,
worldwide commercial property with Hannover Re and automobile property and
liability with Motors Insurance Corporation.

      During 1997, six programs with premiums of $41.8 million were not renewed
and are currently in run-off.

      All of the above companies were assigned, where available, a rating of B++
(very good) to A++ (superior) by A. M. Best Company, Inc.

      In December 1997, OPCC acquired the assets and liabilities of Parcel
Insurance Plan, LP, a St. Louis-based independent insurance agent that manages
the general underwriting of excess value packages for shippers of small parcels.

      Information concerning reinsurance premiums written, earned premiums and
net underwriting income for the years ended 1997, 1996 and 1995 can be found in
Overseas' Statements of Consolidated Income and in Note 9 of the Notes to the
Financial Statements included in "Item 8 -- Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data".

Factors Affecting Overseas' Reinsurance Business
- ------------------------------------------------

      An important aspect of Overseas' Shipper's Risk reinsurance business is
that it does not expose Overseas in any material way to unanticipated sources of
liability because Overseas' liability is limited, like the primary coverage, to
the declared value of a lost or damaged package.  In its other lines of
reinsurance, Overseas seeks highly predictable underwriting results or purchases
excess coverage that will limit losses to acceptable amounts.  The primary
insurers whose business OPL reinsures are major international insurance
companies which are highly rated by leading analysts of insurance companies and
are unaffiliated with Overseas.

      Overseas expects to continue to participate in other areas of reinsurance
and will continue to offer reinsurance for risks if appropriate opportunities
arise. The Shipper's Risk reinsurance described above, which contributed over
32.0% of Overseas' revenues in 1997, has historically been OPL's largest source
of revenue.  There can be no assurance that UPS or its subsidiaries will
continue to offer the Shippers' Risk insurance to its customers, or, if so
offered, that the primary insurers will continue to reinsure with OPL, and there
can be no assurance that UPS will continue to use workers' compensation
insurance arrangements for which Overseas provides reinsurance, or that those
primary insurers will use OPL.

      UPS regularly reviews its package and worker's compensation insurance
programs, and its relationships with its primary insurers, in view of cost,
competition and other factors, and may make changes in such programs at its
discretion.  An adverse resolution of the federal income tax  matter referred to
in Note 2 in Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Item 8
- - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data", could also impact UPS's package
insurance practices.

      In common with industry practice, Overseas establishes estimates of
ultimate losses in connection with its reinsurance obligations and periodically
reviews those estimates.  To date, Overseas has not experienced any material
adjustments to reserve estimates for prior periods.  However, it should be noted
that Overseas' liability in respect of its reinsurance business is subject to
the effects of catastrophic events.

The Property and Casualty Reinsurance Industry and
- --------------------------------------------------
Overseas' Position Therein
- --------------------------

      Property and casualty insurance companies provide protection for insureds
against the risks of damage or loss to property or legal liability to third
parties.  In consideration of the payment of premiums by the insureds, the
insurance company provides the specified indemnity.  Usually, significant
periods elapse between the receipt of premiums and the payment of losses, during
which time the insurance company invests the funds held for the payment of
losses.  The insurance company's ability to achieve earnings is thus based on
the amount by which the total of its earned premiums and investment income
exceeds its provisions for losses and costs of operations.

      The international property and casualty insurance markets are highly
competitive, and in those markets, there are many insurance companies, none of
which dominates the industry.  Competition has been especially intense in the
international reinsurance markets and as a result, premium rates on certain
reinsurance lines of business have fallen significantly over the past two years.
These markets have suffered in previous years due to the high incidence of
catastrophic events.

      Treaty reinsurers rely on the underwriting standards of the primary
insurers which they select to reinsure and bear the risk of loss if the primary
insurer writes the insurance at inadequate prices.  In addition, the reinsurer
is obligated to pay the primary insurer the amount at which claims are settled
by the primary insurer without participating in the settlement process.

      Most of Overseas' reinsurance agreements call for reinsurance premiums and
settlements to be paid in United States dollars.  In addition, its investments
are primarily made in United States dollar denominated securities.  OPL and OP
Re are exempt from Bermuda's currency exchange controls.  Their assets are
located and their operations are conducted in countries in which, in their
opinion, the risks of expropriation are not substantial.

Regulation
- ----------

       Insurance companies are generally regulated by the jurisdictions in which
they operate.  OPL and OP Re do not operate as insurance companies within or
subject to the insurance laws of any jurisdiction of the United States or of any
foreign jurisdiction other than the Islands of Bermuda.

       OPL and OP Re are subject to regulation under Bermuda law which, among
other things, requires them to register and comply with certain requirements as
to capitalization.  For purposes of Bermuda insurance law and regulation, OPL
and OP Re are considered to be engaged in both long-term business and general
business.  The minimum paid up share capital required to be maintained by OPL
and OP Re under Bermuda insurance law and regulations is $370,000.  Moreover,
OPL and OP Re must prepare an annual statutory financial return and statutory
financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Bermuda
Insurance Act of 1978, amendments thereto and related Regulations, and an annual
audit is also required.

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
       In addition, OPL and OP Re are individually required to maintain a
minimum solvency margin at least equal to $250,000 plus the greater of:  (i) the
aggregate of $1.2 million and 15% of the amount by which net premium income from
general business exceeds $6 million; or (ii) 15% of the aggregate of loss
expense provisions and other general business insurance reserves.  As of
December 31, 1997, OPL and OP Re had more than $1.7 billion and $536.2 million,
respectively, of statutory capital and surplus in excess of these requirements.
Minimum statutory capital and surplus for OPL and OP Re is $1.25 million and
$1.0 million, respectively.  Regulatory approval is required to reduce total
statutory capital, as set out in the previous year's financial statements, by
more than 15%.

       Bermuda insurance law and regulations do not limit the categories of
assets in which an insurance company may invest.  However, certain categories of
assets, such as unquoted equities, investments in and advances to affiliates,
real estate and collateral loans, are not "relevant assets" for purposes of
complying with the minimum liquidity ratio with respect to OPL's and OP Re's
general business activities.  The exclusion of these types of assets from the
definition of relevant assets does not materially affect their ability to
satisfy the minimum liquidity ratio.  OPL met these requirements for the years
ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, and OP Re met these requirements for the
years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996.

       Although the extent of regulation varies among jurisdictions within the
United States, an insurance company doing business in the United States must
comply with a more extensive array of laws and regulations than do OPL and OP
Re.  In the United States, insurers and their agents usually must be licensed,
and the policy forms used by an insurer usually must be approved.  Laws and
regulations in most states also govern rates, solvency and standards of business
conduct.  Most United States jurisdictions require insurance companies to file
detailed annual financial statements with supervisory agencies, and their
operations and accounts are subject to examination by such agencies.  Such
jurisdictions also regulate the form and content of statutory financial
statements and the type and concentration of investments.  Furthermore, most
states and the District of Columbia require insurance companies to support
guaranty associations, which are organized to pay claims against insolvent
insurance companies.  Finally, state regulated property and casualty insurers
are required to participate in assigned risk pools to write coverages on risks
not acceptable under normal underwriting standards.

       Because OPL and OP Re conduct their businesses as reinsurers in Bermuda,
they are not subject to the insurance regulatory requirements of jurisdictions
other than Bermuda.  However, the statutory accounting standards adopted by the
jurisdictions which regulate the companies to which OPL and OP Re provide life,
property and casualty and other reinsurance affect OPL and OP Re indirectly.
OPL and OP Re record such transactions on their statutory accounts in a manner
which complies with statutory accounting principles required by the Bermuda
Insurance Act of 1978.

REAL ESTATE, LEASING AND HOTEL ACTIVITIES
- -----------------------------------------

       OPCC is engaged in the real estate, leasing and hotel businesses and has
offices in Bermuda and the United States.  OPCC continued to expand its
operations in 1997 through the creation of its own property management company,
and maintains its United States headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia to assist in
the management of its business affairs.  OPCC's leasing, real estate and hotel
assets exceeded $1.3 billion at December 31, 1997, a growth of approximately 3%
over 1996 levels and 90% over 1995 levels.
 
       In a finance lease transaction held in partnership with GATX Capital,
OPCC purchased a 50% interest in 493 hopper rail cars ("Hopper Cars") and the
lease thereon in 1993, for a purchase price of approximately $4.5 million in
cash and the assumption of a proportionate amount of non-recourse indebtedness
of approximately $606,000, which amount was paid off in 1994.  The Hopper Cars
are currently leased to Bessemer & Lake Erie Railroad Company ("Bessemer & Lake
Erie").  The lease expires in 2001 and annual rentals under the lease are
approximately $909,000.

       In another finance lease transaction in 1994, OPCC purchased all of the
limited partnership interests, and all stock of the corporate general partner,
of KMS II Realty Limited Partnership, a Delaware Limited Partnership ("KMS II").
KMS II owns a 1.5 million square foot regional distribution facility in Manteno,
Illinois (the "KMart Facility"), which it leases to KMart Corporation.  OPCC
purchased the interests in KMS II for approximately $6.7 million in cash and the
assumption of approximately $40.3 million in non-recourse debt, which was
approximately $34.9 million as of December 31, 1997.  The initial term of the
KMart lease expires in 2020 and yearly lease payments are approximately $4.2
million.  After the initial term, KMart has the option to extend the lease for
ten consecutive terms of five years each.  KMart has the option to purchase the
KMart Facility at the end of the initial term of the lease for a price equal to
the fair market value of the KMart Facility on that date.

       OPCC leases to UPS five Boeing 757 air package freighters and a 435,000
square foot facility located on approximately 39 acres of land in Mahwah, New
Jersey (the "Ramapo Ridge Facility"), which UPS is using as a data processing,
telecommunications and operations facility.

       United Parcel Service Co. ("UPS Co."), a certified air carrier subsidiary
of UPS, is responsible for all ground facilities, certain aircraft maintenance,
and air transportation safety and standards for all of the aircraft leased from
OPCC.  OPCC is responsible, at its own expense, for the performance of certain
periodic heavy maintenance.  The payments due under the lease are then adjusted
every three years to reflect the actual maintenance costs, so that OPCC receives
the same net economic return over the life of the lease, and each year the
payments for maintenance costs are adjusted to reflect increases or decreases in
the inflation rate (as measured by the United States Gross National Product
Implicit Price Deflator).  Additionally, OPCC is responsible for the payment of
all costs over $50,000 for corrective work undertaken to comply with FAA
Airworthiness Directives and mandatory notes and bulletins.  OPCC also pays the
cost of insurance for each of the aircraft.

       The five Boeing 757 aircraft were delivered to OPCC in 1990 pursuant to a
purchase agreement with the manufacturer which had been assigned for fair market
value by UPS to OPCC in 1989.  The aircraft are leased to a UPS subsidiary for a
term ending in 2012.

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
       In 1991, the Ramapo Ridge Facility (the "Facility") was completed and
placed in operation by UPS.  The Facility is leased to United Parcel Service
General Services Co. ("GSC"), a subsidiary of UPS, and the initial term of the
lease expires in 2019.  OPCC is responsible, at its own cost and expense, for
the maintenance of the grounds on which the Facility is located and of the
outside walls, roof and structural components of all buildings comprising the
Facility.  GSC is responsible for all other maintenance at the Facility.  OPCC
is responsible, at its own expense, for maintaining insurance on the Facility
and certain types of liability insurance.

       OPCC completed construction on an addition to the Ramapo Ridge Facility
in 1995.  The project scope included the construction of a 27,000 square foot
addition with space available for future expansions of up to 54,000 square feet.
GSC began operations on the addition during the first quarter of 1996.  The
financing of the Ramapo Ridge Facility appears in "Item 2 -- Properties."

       Rent on the five Boeing 757 aircraft and the Ramapo Ridge Facility has a
fixed component and a variable component, based on the extent to which the
assets are utilized by UPS's subsidiaries.  The total rent from aircraft leases
between OPCC and UPS Co. in 1995, 1996 and 1997 was $24.1 million, $23.3 million
and $22.5 million, respectively, and the total rent from the Facility lease in
1995, 1996 and 1997 was $16.3 million, $20.0 million and $19.8 million,
respectively. The fixed and variable components of the aircraft leases and
Ramapo Ridge Facility lease for 1997 are set forth below. For further
information regarding the fixed component of rent see Note 5 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements included in "Item 8 --Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data."

       For further information concerning the acquisition and lease of the
aircraft and the Ramapo Ridge Facility see "Item 13 -- Certain Relationships and
Related Transactions."

       The acquisition of the Boeing 757 aircraft and the Ramapo Ridge Facility
were financed by two series of privately-placed, fixed rate, non-callable bonds
issued by OPL Funding Corp. ("OPL Funding"), a United States special purpose
subsidiary of OPCC incorporated in Delaware.  One series, in the principal
amount of $171.6 million, is due in 2012; the other, in the principal amount of
$73.4 million, is due in 2019.  The fixed component of the rentals for these
assets has been irrevocably assigned to OPL Funding and is used by it to
collateralize a portion of the obligation on the bonds.  The principal of these
bonds is guaranteed by Overseas Partners Credit, Inc. ("Overseas Credit"),
another special purpose subsidiary of OPL incorporated in the Cayman Islands.
Overseas Credit's obligations are secured by zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds
owned by it and pledged as security to the Trustee for the bondholders.  On or
prior to the scheduled maturity date of each series of bonds, the zero coupon
U.S. Treasury bonds will mature in amounts equal to or exceeding the principal
amount of the bonds in that series.  In connection with the foregoing, OPCC
pledged its interest in the aircraft and the facility and the related leases to
OPL Funding, which in turn pledged its interest therein to further secure the
bonds.

       Effective December 31, 1993, OPCC acquired the Marriott Copley Place
Hotel in Boston, Massachusetts (the "Hotel").  This is a full service, luxury,
convention hotel with 1,139 rooms and 44,000 square feet of meeting and
convention space.  In 1996, the existing indebtedness on the Hotel was
refinanced with a 10-year, non-recourse loan in a principal amount of $110
million with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company which was approximately $107.4
million as of December 31, 1997.

       For a description of OPCC's acquisition of its interests in the Marriott
Copley Place Hotel, see Item 2 of OPL's Report on Form 8-K dated January 12,
1994, which is incorporated by reference herein.

       On November 15, 1995, OPCC acquired One Buckhead Plaza ("OBP"), a 20-
story office and specialty retail tower located in the heart of Buckhead, the
geographic center of Atlanta, Georgia.  OBP is approximately 91% leased.  The
purchase price has been allocated to the various asset categories, following an
independent appraisal.  OPCC also has a purchase option on adjacent tracts of
land totaling almost 14 acres for five years and a right of first refusal for
ten years.  The OBP purchase was financed, in part, with a $35 million, 10-year,
non-recourse loan with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company which was
approximately $33.9 million as of December 31, 1997.

       On August 30, 1996, OPCC, through a subsidiary, acquired the Atlanta
Financial Center, a three-tower office complex in Atlanta's prestigious Buckhead
community with over 885,000 square feet of rentable office space and a nine-
level parking structure.  The complex is currently 98% leased to a variety of
tenants.  Indebtedness of this property is a $79.9 million, 10-year, non-
recourse loan with New York Life which was approximately $78.9 million as of
December 31, 1997.

       In December 1996, OPCC, through a subsidiary, acquired 333 West Wacker
Drive situated in the heart of Chicago's West Loop.  This 36-story tower with
826,632 square feet is a defining feature of the Chicago skyline and is
currently 91% leased.  It was acquired for cash and in 1997 was refinanced with
a $65.0 million, 15-year, non-recourse loan from The Prudential Insurance
Company of America which was approximately $64.8 million as of December 31,
1997.

       Also in December 1996, OPCC purchased a two-thirds partnership interest
in a regional retail and office complex, Copley Place, located in the Back Bay
area of Boston.  The four seven-story towers have 368,894 square feet of retail
space beneath four office towers with a total of 842,460 square feet and two
parking garages.  The retail and office space are currently 99% and 97%
occupied.  The property was acquired with a non-recourse mortgage indebtedness
to Aetna Casualty and Surety Company in the amount of $210 million as of
December 31, 1996, including accrued but deferred interest.  OPCC refinanced the
property in 1997 with a $195.0 million, 10-year, non-recourse loan from
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company which was approximately $194.4 million as of
December 31, 1997.

       In January 1997, OPCC established its own real estate property management
company, Overseas Management, Inc. ("OMI").  With its own employees and third-
party service providers, OMI provides on-site management and leasing of all of
OPCC's office and retail properties.
 
       Revenues for the real estate and leasing business (which includes the
hotel) constituted 21.9%, 17.8% and 17.0% of OPL's consolidated revenues in
1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Information regarding real estate and leasing
operating income for the years ended 1997, 1996 and 1995 is set forth in
Overseas' Statements of Consolidated Income and in Note 9 to the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Item 8 - Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data".

Real Estate and Leasing Industry
- --------------------------------

       The commercial real estate industry offers an interested purchaser a wide
array of opportunities depending on the location and type of property they are
interested in.  OPCC's credit standing and today's attractive interest rates
permit OPCC to approach numerous sources for competitive financing.  As with
many industries affected by market trends, depending on market conditions and
the property type OPCC chooses to acquire or dispose of, OPCC may become subject
to strong competition when demonstrating an interest in a property or risk
devaluation of real estate held if the market takes a sudden turn downward.  In
consideration of the foregoing, OPCC, through its professional staff and
outside consultants, monitors the real estate market closely to ensure that all
acquisitions continue to meet OPCC's investment criteria.

       The leasing industry offers users an alternative to the purchase of
nearly every type of property and equipment, with varying payment conditions,
depending on the type of property and the nature of the user.  Depending upon
the extent and segment of the leasing market OPCC determines to enter, OPCC may
become subject to intense competition.  Manufacturers and other leasing
companies may provide certain ancillary services which OPCC cannot offer or may
offer lease terms which OPCC is unwilling to offer.  In addition, in the
aircraft leasing industry, there are numerous other entities which lease
aircraft, including distributors, manufacturers, airlines, equipment managers,
leasing companies, financial institutions and public and private limited
partnerships, some of which have greater financial resources and more experience
than OPCC.  Demand for leasing also depends upon the availability of and terms
by which the acquisition of property can be financed through other means.


Regulation
- ----------

       The Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA") regulates air transportation
services, but does not directly regulate the leasing business of OPCC.  The
FAA's authority relates primarily to safety aspects of air transportation,
including aircraft standards and maintenance, personnel and ground facilities.
Thus, in connection with OPCC's aircraft leases, the FAA regulates the lessee of
the aircraft but not the lease itself.  Similarly, where maintenance is provided
under a contract, the maintenance provider must be certified by the FAA.  All
aircraft leased by OPCC are leased to a certified air carrier.

TAXATION
- --------

          OPL is incorporated under the laws of the Islands of Bermuda and does
not consider itself to be engaged in a trade or business in the United States
and, therefore, does not expect to be subject to U.S. income taxes. Certain of
OPL's subsidiaries engage in business in the United States, primarily OPCC, and
as a result it, but not OPL, is subject to U.S. income taxes. Under current
Bermuda law, OPL is not obligated to pay any tax in Bermuda based upon income or
capital gains.

          The United States Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has issued a Notice
of Deficiency with respect to the Company's 1984 taxable year in which it
asserted that the Company is subject to U.S. tax in the amount of $53 million
for the year 1984, plus penalties and interest for that year. On August 18,
1995, the Company filed a Petition in the United States Tax Court contesting the
proposed assessment of tax in the Notice of Deficiency. A trial was held before
the United States Tax Court in two sessions during the fall of 1997, the second
of which ended on November 7, 1997. An additional trial session previously
scheduled for the week of December 8, 1997 was cancelled by agreement of the
Company and the IRS. The Company filed its trial brief on February 13, 1998. The
IRS indicated on February 13, 1998, that it no longer intends to pursue its
position against the Company for 1984. However, it is unclear as to the impact,
if any, the IRS's position with respect to 1984 would have on subsequent years.
The IRS has also asserted that OPL is subject to U.S. taxation for its 1985
through 1987 taxable years and has proposed an aggregate assessment of $240
million of tax, plus penalties and interest, for those years. The Company has
filed a Protest against the proposed assessment with the Appellate Division of
the IRS with respect to the years 1985 through 1987. The IRS has further
asserted that OPL is subject to U.S. taxation for the years 1988 through 1990
and has proposed an aggregate assessment of $170 million of tax, plus penalties
and interest, for those years. The Company has filed a Protest against the
proposed assessment with the Appellate Division of the IRS with respect to the
years 1988 through 1990. The IRS has not proposed an assessment for years
subsequent to 1990. However, the IRS may take similar positions for subsequent
years pending resolution of the years currently in dispute. OPL believes that it
has no tax liability, that it is not subject to U.S. taxation, and that there is
substantial authority for its position. It has vigorously contested the Notice
of Deficiency for 1984 and will vigorously contest proposed assessments for the
years 1985 through 1990 and any future assessments.

          OPL and its subsidiaries, other than OPCC and its subsidiaries,
conduct, and intend to conduct their activities so that they will not do
business in the United States or otherwise cause any portion of their
undistributed earnings and profits to be subject to United States federal and
state taxation of income under present law. If OPL were, nevertheless,
determined to be engaged in business in the United States, it would be subject
to United States corporate taxes on income considered to be derived from that
portion of its trade or business deemed to be conducted in the United States.

          Various provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code")
provide for current taxation at the shareholder level of certain kinds of income
earned by foreign enterprises owned in whole or part by United States residents.
Among such provisions are those in Subpart F of the Code, concerned with
"controlled foreign corporations," and those concerned with "passive foreign
investment companies."  If  OPL were to be subject to one or more of these
provisions, some or all, depending upon the applicable provisions, of the United
States shareowners of OPL would be liable for federal income taxes with respect
to certain of the earnings of OPL, whether or not an amount equal to such
earnings was distributed to such shareowners as a dividend.  Such liability is
referred to herein as "current taxation."

                                       12
<PAGE>
 
          Under Subpart F of the Code, the United States shareowners of OPL
would be subject to current taxation on income of OPL derived from insuring or
reinsuring the risks of its United States shareowners and persons related
thereto, but only if (i) such insured or reinsured United States shareowners and
related persons were to own at least 20% of the common stock of OPL and (ii)
such income from the insurance or reinsurance of the risks of its United States
shareowners and related persons were to represent at least 20% of OPL's
reinsurance income. The reinsurance underwritten by OPL does not now exceed
these limits and management does not expect that these limits will be exceeded
in the future. Furthermore, any United States person owning directly or
indirectly 10% of the common stock of OPL (a "United States 10% Shareholder")
would be subject to current taxation on their proportionate share of the Subpart
F insurance income of OPL if United States 10% Shareholders were to own, in the
aggregate, more than 25% of the common stock of OPL. Finally, a United States
10% Shareholder would be subject to current taxation on his proportionate share
of all Subpart F income of OPL, and of certain other items, if United States 10%
Shareholders were to own, in the aggregate, more than 50% of the common stock of
OPL. OPL does not believe that any OPL shareholder is currently subject to any
of the tax provisions described in this paragraph.

          Under the passive foreign investment company rules, all United States
shareowners of OPL would be subject to rules designed to approximate current
taxation of the earnings of OPL if at least 75% of the gross income of OPL were
"passive income", or if at least 50% by value of the average assets of OPL were
to produce, or were held for the production of, "passive income".  Except as may
be provided in future regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury,
income derived by OPL in the active conduct of its reinsurance business does not
constitute "passive income", and assets held by OPL that produce solely or are
held solely for the production of such income do not constitute "passive
assets". Further, under the Subsidiary Look-Through Rules, because OPL owns 100%
of the stock of OPCC, OPL is treated as if it held the assets of OPCC and
received directly the income of OPCC earned from those assets.  Consistent with
OPL's income from its reinsurance business, however, the income derived by OPCC
in the active conduct of its real estate, leasing and hotel business does not
constitute "passive income", and assets held by OPCC that produce solely or are
held solely for the production of such income do not constitute "passive
assets".

          It should be noted that Congress has historically sought to broaden
the taxation of foreign enterprises owned by United States residents, and future
legislation could affect the United States federal tax treatment of OPL and its
shareowners.

          There is imposed on foreign insurers a United States federal excise
tax on the reinsurance of United States risks equal to 1% of the reinsurance
premiums, payable by the United States company ceding the reinsurance. Under
OPL's reinsurance agreements, OPL reimburses the ceding company for such tax, as
well as for premium taxes payable under state law, if any.

          Bermuda does not have a corporate income tax or a tax on insurance
premiums.

Item 2.   Properties
- -------   ----------

          The Marriott Copley Place Hotel (the "Hotel") is a 38-story full-
service, luxury, convention hotel located in the prominent Back Bay section of
Boston, Massachusetts. The Hotel has 1,139 guest rooms, 44,000 square feet of
meeting and convention facilities (including the largest hotel exhibit hall in
Boston), three restaurants, a gift shop and concierge level and a parking garage
that can accommodate 265 automobiles.

          The KMart Facility consists of an approximately 1.5 million square
foot warehouse building, including parking areas and drives, located on
approximately 113 acres of land in Manteno, Illinois. In addition, OPCC also
owns a 50% interest in 493 Hopper Cars. This rolling stock is leased to Bessemer
& Lake Erie Railroad Company and is used to transport a wide variety of
commodities, primarily coal.

          Sitting on 39 acres in Mahwah, New Jersey, OPCC owns and maintains a
435,000 square foot facility which has been leased to UPS through 2019.  This
facility, known as Ramapo Ridge, is being used by a UPS subsidiary as a data
processing, telecommunications and operations facility.  The entire facility
consists of an office building, computer center, a central service structure and
a parking garage with an area of approximately 562,000 square feet.  UPS has an
option to purchase the Ramapo Ridge Facility at the end of the lease term.  It
also has an option to purchase the land, but not the buildings, from OPCC in
2050.  In 1996, OPCC completed construction of a 27,000 square foot addition to
the Ramapo Ridge Facility which accommodates future expansions of up to 54,000
square feet.  See "Item 13 -- Certain Relationships and Related Transactions".

          OPCC owns five Boeing 757 aircraft which have been leased to UPS for a
term ending in 2012.  See "Item 13 -- Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions".

          OPCC purchased One Buckhead Plaza ("OBP") in November 1995. OBP is a
20-story office and specialty retail tower located in the heart of Buckhead, a
prestigious business and residential community of Atlanta, Georgia. The building
has 400,000 square feet of rentable office space, 40,000 square feet of rentable
retail space, 1,229 parking spaces and 14,000 square feet of storage. It is
approximately 91% leased.

          OPCC acquired the Atlanta Financial Center on August 30, 1996. The
complex is currently 98% leased to a variety of high quality firms.  Some of
Atlanta's prominent retail and hotel facilities are within easy walking distance
and easy access to primary roadways is nearby. This office building has over
885,000 square feet of rentable office space and includes a nine level parking
structure.

          In December 1996, OPCC acquired 333 West Wacker Drive situated in the
heart of Chicago's West Loop in the downtown market.  This 36-story tower with
826,632 square feet is a defining feature of the Chicago skyline. The property
is currently 91% leased and is occupied by a nationally known multitenants.

          Also in December 1996, OPCC purchased a two-thirds partnership
interest in a regional retail and office complex, Copley Place, located in the
Back Bay area of Boston, Massachusetts. The four seven-story towers , adjacent
to the Marriott Hotel have 368,894 square feet of retail space developed beneath
four office towers with a total of 842,460 square feet and two parking garages.
The retail and office space are currently 99% and 97% occupied. The space is
occupied by strong creditworthy tenants and retailers.

          Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
          ---------------------------------------------

          (a)  OPL Common Stock
               ----------------

          OPL is authorized to issue 900,000,000 shares of Capital Stock, $.10
par value per share ("Common Stock"), of which 131,000,000 were issued and
outstanding as of February 28, 1998. It is also authorized to issue 200,000,000
shares of Preference Stock, $.10 par value per share. At present no shares of
Preference Stock have been issued or are outstanding nor are there any plans to
issue any such shares.

          Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote in the election of
directors and other matters except that any "Substantial Shareholder", as
defined in OPL's Bye-Laws, is entitled to only one one-hundredth of a vote with
respect to each share held by such shareholder which is in excess of 10 percent
of OPL's outstanding voting stock.  The term Substantial Shareholder is defined
to mean any shareholder, other than UPS or any employee benefit plan of OPL or
UPS, who is the beneficial owner of more than 10 percent of the voting power of
the outstanding shares of OPL entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors.  There are no limitations imposed by foreign law, or by OPL's
Memorandum of Association and Bye-Laws, or by any agreement or other instrument
to which OPL is a party or to which it is subject, on the right of shareowners,
solely by reason of their citizenship or domicile, to vote Common Stock.  Owners
of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as are declared
by the Board of Directors.  Upon liquidation, OPL's shareowners are entitled to
share on a pro rata basis in the assets of OPL legally available for
distribution to shareowners.

          (b)  Market for OPL's Common Stock
               -----------------------------

          OPL's Common Stock is not listed on a securities exchange and is not
sold in the organized over-the-counter markets. Prior to August 7, 1996, UPS was
the principal purchaser of shares of Common Stock. Common Stock purchased by UPS
was used primarily for awards to employees under its stock-based employee
compensation plans and purchases by its employees or has been sold to OPL and
constructively retired. Since August 7, 1996, OPL has assumed responsibility for
stock purchases under the Company's Bye-Laws.

          OPL's Bye-Laws provide that no outstanding shares of Common Stock may
be transferred, except by a bona fide gift or inheritance, unless such shares
shall have first been offered, by written notice, for sale to OPL at the lower
of their book value or the price at which they are to be offered to the proposed
transferee and on the same terms upon which they are to be offered to the
proposed transferee. Notices of proposed transfers must be sent to the Treasurer
of OPL, must set forth the number of shares proposed to be sold, the proposed
price per share, the name and address of the proposed transferee, the terms of
the proposed sale and must contain a statement by the proposed transferee that
the information contained in the notice is true and correct. OPL has the option,
within 30 days after receipt of the notice, to purchase all or a portion of the
shares. If OPL chooses to exercise its right of first refusal with respect to
only a portion of the shares designated for sale, the shareowner may sell the
remaining portion of such shares for the price and on the terms described in the
notice. If OPL fails to exercise or waives the option, the shareowner may,
within a period of 20 days thereafter, sell to the proposed transferee all, but
not part, of the shares which were previously offered to OPL, and not purchased
by it pursuant to its option, for the price and on the terms described in the
notice.

                                       17
<PAGE>
 
          All transferees of shares hold their shares subject to the same
restrictions.  Shares previously offered to OPL but not transferred within the
20 day period remain subject to the initial restrictions.  Shares of Common
Stock may be pledged but they may not be transferred upon foreclosure unless
they have first been offered to OPL in the manner described above.

          OPL also has the right under its Bye-Laws to purchase shares of Common
Stock distributed as incentive awards (including awards under the UPS Managers
Incentive Plan and shares distributed pursuant to certain UPS Stock Option
Plans) to employees of UPS and its subsidiaries following the recipient's
retirement, death or other termination of employment. OPL may exercise this
right to purchase all or a portion of such shares of a former employee at any
time within a period of three years following such termination (if the
shareowner owns less than 500 shares of UPS's common stock) or thirteen years
(if the shareowner owns 500 or more shares of UPS's common stock).  The purchase
price will be the book value of the shares at the time of purchase as described
below.  Any transferee of shares of Common Stock owned by recipients of
incentive awards of OPL shares will hold the shares subject to this right of
purchase by OPL.

          OPL also has a right to repurchase shares of Common Stock sold by UPS
prior to August 7, 1996, in a continuing offering of UPS and OPL's shares, which
commenced in June of 1986.  This repurchase right, which is contained in the
Subscription Agreement executed by each purchaser in that offering, is similar
to the right which OPL has to repurchase shares distributed as incentive awards.

          Under OPL's Bye-Laws, OPL has the right to purchase shares of Common
Stock which may be issued as stock dividends, or in stock splits,
recapitalizations or reorganizations of OPL similar to the rights that it has to
purchase the shares on which the dividend, split, recapitalization or
reorganization shares were issued.  OPL also has the right to purchase Common
Stock in a number of other circumstances under OPL's Bye-Laws.

          Although UPS and OPL, each individually, has indicated that they
intend to continue their policies of awarding shares of Common Stock, there can
be no assurance of the continuation of that policy. The feasibility of purchases
is subject to continued maintenance by UPS and OPL, each individually, of
satisfactory earnings and financial condition and UPS's need for OPL shares for
awards under its compensation plans.

          For the purposes of fixing the price at which OPL will purchase shares
of Common Stock upon exercise of its rights described above, book value per
share is determined from OPL's audited balance sheet as reported in its most
recently published Annual Report to Shareowners and mailed to its shareowners or
otherwise generally made available. Book value per share since January 9, 1995
has been as follows:

          On January 8, 1998, OPL announced that according to OPL's most recent
audited balance sheet, book value per share was $17.00.  Under the Bye-Laws, OPL
has the rights to purchase its shares at $17.00 per share.

          (c)  Dividend Policy
               ---------------

          Declarations of dividends are at the discretion of the Board of
Directors in light of all relevant facts, including general business conditions
and OPL's earnings and capital requirements. It is the intent of the Board to
consider the payment of an annual dividend in an amount to be determined on the
basis of OPL's earnings, financial condition and capital needs. OPL declared and
paid cash dividends in 1997, 1996 and 1995 of $0.90, $0.72 and $0.60 per share,
respectively.

          Dividends paid by OPL on shares of Common Stock to persons residing in
the United States will be subject to United States federal income taxes to the
same extent that such dividends would be taxable to such persons if paid by a
domestic corporation, but without the dividend received deduction available to
corporations.  Similar treatment is likely to be accorded under applicable state
law.

          There are no applicable tax treaties or Bermuda laws, decrees or
regulations which would impact on payment or remittance of dividends, require
withholding for tax purposes or restrict the export or import of capital.

          (d)  Custody Arrangements For Certificates
               -------------------------------------
               For Common Stock
               ----------------

          Each shareowner may elect to have First Union National Bank ("First
Union") hold his or her certificates as custodian without cost to the
shareowner.

          If the shareowner elects to have First Union hold the shares of Common
Stock in custody, First Union will have the shares registered in its name and
will sell or otherwise dispose of the shares only upon the shareowner's
instruction and in conformity with OPL's Bye-Laws.  Dividends and other
distributions on Common Stock held in custody will be promptly remitted by First
Union to the shareowner.  Shareowners will receive periodic statements of the
number of shares held by First Union for their account and of dividends paid on
those shares.  Notice of any regular or special meeting of shareowners of OPL
will be forwarded to shareowners by First Union, which will vote the shares as
directed by the shareowner or, on request, furnish the shareowner with a proxy
thus permitting the shareowner to vote the number of shares of Common Stock held
for him or her at the meeting.

          ---------------------------------------------

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

1997 Compared to 1996
- ---------------------

Reinsurance:

Reinsurance premiums written increased to $720.1 million in the year ended
December 31, 1997, from $560.6 million in 1996.  The increase of $159.5 million
was primarily due to an increase in property premiums of $108.3 million, an
increase in workers' compensation premiums of $37.6 million and an increase in
automobile reinsurance premiums of $13.9 million. These increases were offset by
a decrease of $14.8 million in shipper's risk premiums due to the 15-day strike
against UPS in August 1997 and a decrease of $41.8 million from reinsurance
programs which were discontinued and are currently in run-off.  Two new lines of
business introduced in 1997 contributed $42.7 million to reinsurance premiums
written - aviation and marine programs amounted to $37.7 million and medical
benefits totalled $5.0 million.  The significant increase in property premiums
can be attributed primarily to the writing of eight new property programs which
provided $98.7 million in premiums written.  Workers' compensation increased as
a result of a policy period including eight months in 1996 compared to 12 months
in 1997.  Net underwriting income decreased by $12.5 million over last year
since the increases in underwriting income from other reinsurance programs were
not sufficient to completely offset the decreased underwriting income from
excess value reinsurance.

Real Estate and Leasing:

Real estate and leasing revenue increased by $97.2 million over 1996.  Office
buildings purchased in August and December 1996 generated rents of $97.3 million
for 1997 compared to $6.6 million in 1996.  Hotel sales increased $5.2 million
due to higher room rates and slightly higher occupancy rates.  Operating lease
rents with UPS decreased $1.1 million due to a reduction in the toll structure
as well as a decrease in operating activity at one of the facilities.  Operating
expenses increased due to increased operating costs for new buildings and
increased hotel operating expenses.  Real estate and leasing operating income
increased from $12.1 million to $25.2 million in 1997.

Investment Income:
The investment results for the year ended December 31, 1997 reflect the advances
in the U.S. equity market.  Investment income increased by $81.3 million over
1996 primarily due to increased net holding gains on investments of $95.4
million offset by decreased dividends on real estate investments trust
securities and equity securities of $12.2 million and a decline in interest
income of $2.1 million.  Net holding gains on the equity portfolio increased
$73.0 million while holding gains in the fixed income portfolio increased $22.4
million.  Interest from debt securities declined $2.1 million, primarily due to
a lower allocation of investment in fixed income securities of 51% in 1997
compared to 53% during 1996.

Net Income:
Net income increased by $75.9 million over 1996 due to the performance of our
investment portfolio.  The effects of the decreased excess value reinsurance
premiums and underwriting income from the 15-day strike against UPS in August
1997, were offset by improvements in other reinsurance underwriting income and
real estate and leasing income.  Net income per share was $3.64, a 67 cent per
share increase over 1996.

1996 Compared to 1995
- ---------------------

Reinsurance:
Reinsurance premiums written increased to $560.6 million in the  year ended
December 31, 1996, from $500.7 million in 1995.  The increase of $59.9 million
was due to growth in excess value premiums of $21.5 million, decreased workers'
compensation reinsurance premiums written of $19.1 million and an increase in
other reinsurance premiums written of $57.5 million.  Excess value reinsurance
premiums increased due to a 6% increase in excess value units over 1995.
Workers' compensation reinsurance premiums written decreased $19.1 million due
to a change in the program's coverage period and renewal date from May 1, 1997
to December 31, 1996.  The increase in other reinsurance premiums written was
primarily the result of four new treaties which contributed $68.4 million in
premiums written in 1996, and increased premiums of $11.3 million on the renewal
of existing programs.  This premium increase was offset by reduced premiums of
$22.2 million from four reinsurance programs which were discontinued and are
currently in run-off.  The increase in reinsurance underwriting income of $4.2
million is primarily due to excess value reinsurance.

Real Estate and Leasing:
Real estate and leasing revenue increased by $25.3 million over 1995. OPCC
purchased office buildings in November 1995 and August 1996, which generated
rents of $17.1 million for 1996 compared to $1.7 million in 1995.  The two
properties acquired in December 1996 did not contribute to revenues in 1996.
Hotel sales increased $7.2 million due to higher occupancy and higher room
rates.  Operating lease rents with UPS increased $2.9 million due to increased
rents resulting from the expansion of the data processing facility.  Operating
expenses increased due to increased hotel operating expenses, increased costs at
the data processing facility due to its expansion and increased operating costs
for new buildings. Real estate and leasing operating income increased from  $6.6
million to $12.1 million in 1996.

Investment Income:
The investment results for the year ended December 31, 1996, reflect the effects
of the diversification steps taken in November 1995 and the reclassification of
our investments as trading securities with the corresponding reporting of
unrealized gains and losses as income instead of as a separate component of
Members' Equity.  Investment income increased by $13.7 million over 1995
primarily due to increased net holding gains on investments of $34.6 million,
increased dividends on real estate investment trust securities and equity
securities of $12.1 million offset by a decline in interest income of $31.8
million. Net holding gains on the equity portfolio increased $78.3 million and
were partially offset by increased holding losses in the fixed income portfolio
of $43.7 million due to declines in carrying values resulting from increases in
interest rates during the year. Interest from debt securities declined $31.8
million, primarily due to a lower allocation of investments in fixed income
securities of 53% in 1996 instead of almost 100% during 1995.

Net Income:
Net income increased by $30.4 million over 1995 due to improved earnings in all
segments, with the greatest improvement reported in our investment activities.
Net income per share was $2.97, a 24 cent per share increase over 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

          Overseas believes that its investments and cash flow from operations
are adequate sources of capital and liquidity for the payment of claims and the
conduct of its existing real estate and leasing operations. Overseas further
believes that its strong capital position will permit continued expansion of its
reinsurance business should appropriate opportunities arise. In the event
Overseas decides to purchase additional capital assets, it may, as demonstrated
by its existing portfolio of assets, finance such purchases from internally
generated funds or by outside borrowing which Overseas believes would be readily
available to it.

          Overseas' investment policies are designed to achieve enhanced returns
to shareowners measured over conventional medium to long-term market cycle
periods. Overseas primarily invests in highly liquid debt securities of
governments, government agencies, financial institutions and utilities in its
fixed income portfolio and in stocks drawn mainly from the S&P 500 Index for its
equity portfolio. Increases in interest rates could have a negative effect on
the value of the bonds and equities comprised within its investment portfolio.
However, Overseas expects that an increase in interest rates will have no
material adverse effect on overall liquidity.

          Because the liquidity of Overseas' investments permits Overseas to
respond quickly to changing market conditions, Overseas' investments are not
significantly affected by inflation. Inflation, including inflation in damage
awards and costs, can substantially increase the ultimate cost of settlement in
certain types of insurance. This is because the actual payment of claims may
take place a number of years after the provisions for losses are reflected in
the financial statements. Overseas will, on the other hand, earn income on the
funds retained for a period of time until eventual payment of a claim.

          In accordance with normal business practice, letters of credit in
favor of certain insurance companies reinsured by OPL and OP Re are established
and amended periodically based upon the insurance companies' actual loss
experience.

          In connection with the acquisition of real estate assets and leased
assets, Overseas Partners Capital Corp. (OPCC) has issued or assumed certain
debt obligations. For further information, see Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements included in "Item 8 -- Financial Statements and Supplementary Data".
OPCC continues to actively seek additional investment opportunities.

          The United States Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has issued a Notice
of Deficiency with respect to the Company's 1984 taxable year in which it
asserted that the Company is subject to U.S. tax in the amount of $53 million
for the year 1984, plus penalties and interest for that year. On August 18,
1995, the Company filed a Petition in the United States Tax Court contesting the
proposed assessment of tax in the Notice of Deficiency. A trial was held before
the United States Tax Court in two sessions during the fall of 1997, the second
of which ended on November 7, 1997. An additional trial session previously
scheduled for the week of December 8, 1997 was cancelled by agreement of the
Company and the IRS. The Company filed its trial brief on February 13, 1998. The
IRS indicated on February 13, 1998 that it no longer intends to pursue its
position against the Company for 1984. However, it is unclear as to the impact,
if any, the IRS's position with respect to 1984 would have on subsequent years.
The IRS has also asserted that OPL is subject to U.S. taxation for its 1985
through 1987 taxable years and has proposed an aggregate assessment of $240
million of tax, plus penalties and interest, for those years. The Company has
filed a Protest against the proposed assessment with the Appellate Division of
the IRS with respect to the years 1985 through 1987. The IRS has further
asserted that OPL is subject to U.S. taxation for the years 1988 through 1990
and has proposed an aggregate assessment of $170 million of tax, plus penalties
and interest, for those years. The Company has filed a Protest against the
proposed assessment with the Appellate Division of the IRS with respect to the
years 1988 through 1990. The IRS has not proposed an assessment for years
subsequent to 1990. However, the IRS may take similar positions for subsequent
years pending resolution of the years currently in dispute. OPL believes that it
has no tax liability, that it is not subject to U.S. taxation, and that there is
substantial authority for its position. It has vigorously contested the Notice
of Deficiency for 1984 and will vigorously contest proposed assessments for the
years 1985 through 1990 and any future assessments.

          Overseas believes that its borrowing capabilities and cash flows from
reinsurance, investments and real estate and leasing operations will be a
sufficient source of capital for its ongoing operations.  On a long-term basis,
Overseas believes that its resources and available credit capacity will continue
to be adequate to meet any obligations likely to arise under its existing lines
of business, and that its resources are sufficient to allow it to underwrite
additional reinsurance business as well as to  acquire additional capital assets
in the future.

YEAR 2000 MATTERS
- -----------------

          The Year 2000 issue is the result of the inability of computers,
software and other equipment utilizing microprocessors to recognize and properly
process data fields using two digits rather than four to define the applicable
year. Time-sensitive systems and software may recognize a date using "00" as the
year 1900 rather than the year 2000.

          Overseas plans to have formal communications with all of its
significant vendors and large customers to determine the extent to which the
Company's interface systems are vulnerable to those third parties' failure to
remediate their own Year 2000 Issue. However, there can be no guarantee that the
systems of other companies on which the Company's systems rely will be timely
converted, or that a failure to convert by another company, or a conversion that
is incompatible with the Company's systems, would not have a material adverse
effect on the Company's system.

          The total cost to the Company of the Year 2000 issue has not yet been
calculated but is not anticipated to be material to its financial position or
results of operations in any given year.

Item 11   Executive Compensation
- -------   ----------------------

Report of Compensation Committee on Executive Compensation
- ----------------------------------------------------------

          The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has furnished the
following report on Executive Compensation:

          The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has
responsibility for determining the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer
and for approving the compensation of the other officers of Overseas and its
subsidiaries upon recommendation of the CEO. Overall compensation currently
includes salary, bonus, and stock appreciation rights. The Committee also
determines cost of living allowances paid to executive officers resident in
Bermuda. The Committee is assisted in carrying out its responsibility by
Overseas management and by outside consultants.

          In determining appropriate compensation levels, the Committee reviews
data received from a consultant concerning compensation for comparable positions
at reinsurance and real estate investment companies in Bermuda and the United
States, but does not place great weight on such data.  The 1997 compensation of
Overseas' executive officers was less than the median compensation levels at the
companies studied.  Companies studied are not limited to those in the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index and the Standard & Poor's Multi-Line Insurance Companies Index
used in the performance charts following this report.

          All elements of the current compensation package are payable in cash.
With respect to the salaries and bonuses of the CEO and other executive
officers, the Committee does not employ formulas but instead exercises its
judgment based on considerations including overall responsibilities, experience
and ability, individual performance and past compensation.  The Committee
stresses collaborative working relationships and does not use objective
corporate performance standards in determining the salaries and bonuses of
individual executive officers, including the CEO.

          Awards under the Stock Appreciation Rights Plan are long-term awards
intended to promote growth in shareowner value and continuity of employment.
The number of performance units comprising each award is determined by a formula
based on the salary of the recipient at the time of grant.  The amount received
upon exercise of the award depends on the performance of Overseas Common Stock
over the five-year period between grant and exercise.

          Cost of living allowances are intended to permit executive officers
who have relocated to Bermuda from the United States to maintain a comparable
standard of living.

Performance Graph

          The following graph shows a five year comparison of cumulative total
shareowner returns for Overseas, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (the "S&P 500")
and the Standard & Poor's Multi-Line Insurance Companies Index (the "S&P Multi-
Line").  The comparison of the cumulative total returns on investment (change in
annual stock price plus reinvested dividends) for each of the annual periods
assumes that $100 was invested on December 31, 1992 in each of Overseas, the S&P
500 and the S&P Multi-Line.

          Overseas Common Stock is not listed on a securities exchange or traded
in the over-the-counter market. The current price of Overseas Common Stock at
any time during a year is equal to the book value of Overseas Common Stock on
December 31 of the prior year as reported in Overseas' Annual Report to
Shareowners. The current price of Overseas Common Stock is announced
approximately ten days after the end of the year. Because the date varied during
the years listed above, the performance graph assumes that the price was
announced on December 31.

(1) Under the Overseas' Retirement Plan, participants receive credit for prior
    service with UPS. In the case of participants with UPS deferred vested
    benefits, Overseas is responsible for the difference between the amounts
    shown above and the amounts such participants receive from UPS at
    retirement.
(2) Amounts exceeding $125,000 would be paid pursuant to Overseas' Coordinating
    Benefit Plan.
(3) For 1997, no more than $160,000 (which is adjusted from time to time by the
    Internal Revenue Service) of cash compensation could be taken into account
    in calculating benefits payable under OPCC Retirement Plan.
(4) Participants who elect payment forms with survivor options will receive
    lesser monthly amounts than those shown in the above table.

     The compensation covered by the Plans whose benefits are summarized in
the table above includes salary plus bonus. The Covered Compensation for each
participant in the Plans is the average Covered Compensation of the participant
during the five highest consecutive years out of the last ten full calendar
years of service.

     Estimated or actual credited years of service under the Plans to the Named
Executive Officers was as follows:  Barone - 24 years, Butler - 30 years and
Schmidt - 29 years.

     The Plans permit participants with 25 or more years of benefit service to
retire as early as age 55 with no or only a limited reduction in the amount of
their monthly benefits.

Item 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
- --------  ----------------------------------------------

Common Relationships With UPS
- -----------------------------

     Overseas was incorporated under Bermuda law in June 1983 by UPS.  On
December 31, 1983, prior to commencing operations, Overseas was spun off when
UPS paid a special dividend to shareowners of one share of Common Stock for each
share of UPS Common Stock then outstanding, resulting in the distribution of
approximately 97% of the outstanding Common Stock.

     Mr. Clanin, an Overseas director, is an executive officer and director of
UPS and Mr. Pyne, an Overseas director, is an executive officer of UPS.  In
considering which risks related to UPS's business to reinsure, or which leasing
or other arrangements to enter into with UPS, directors and officers of Overseas
who are also directors and officers and shareowners of UPS must consider the
impact of their business decisions on each of the two companies.  Although
prevailing market conditions are among the factors considered by them in making
such decisions, there can be no assurance that transactions relating to the two
companies will be on the most favorable terms that could be obtained by either
party in the open market.

     Overseas does not have any formal conflict resolution procedures.
Nevertheless, in connection with the reinsurance by Overseas of risks related to
the business of UPS, Overseas believes that the rates charged by the primary
insurers reinsured by Overseas are competitive with those charged to shippers
utilizing other carriers. Additionally, in connection with major transactions in
which UPS and Overseas have been involved, primarily leasing transactions,
Overseas has generally obtained fairness or valuation opinions from one or more
leading investment banking firms or other organizations with significant
expertise in the evaluation of the interests involved.

                                       35

Reinsurance Transactions
- ------------------------

     Overseas was organized to reinsure shipper's risks relating to packages
carried by UPS as a common carrier as well as to underwrite other reinsurance
for insureds unaffiliated with UPS. Since commencing operations on January 1,
1984, Overseas' primary reinsurance business has been reinsuring insurance
issued by United States-based insurance companies unaffiliated with UPS or
Overseas.  This reinsurance covers the risk of loss or damage to shippers'
packages carried by UPS's subsidiaries and unaffiliated foreign common carriers
whose declared value exceeds $100 or equivalent in foreign currency. The
reinsurance of excess value insurance does not involve transactions conducted
between UPS and Overseas. Various subsidiaries of American International Group,
Inc., (an insurance company unaffiliated with Overseas or UPS) insure customer
packages in return for premiums paid by the customers. Overseas reinsures these
primary insurers, whose premium payments constitute Overseas' largest source of
revenues and profits. Reinsurance premiums earned by Overseas for reinsuring
these risks from January 1, 1997 to December 31, 1997 were approximately $367
million or over 32% of Overseas' 1997 revenues, a reduction of 28% over 1996.
Overseas' reinsurance business has also included reinsurance of workers
compensation insurance issued by another unaffiliated United States-based
insurance company covering risks of a UPS subsidiary in the State of California.

     Mr. Clanin, an Overseas director, is an executive officer and director of
UPS and Mr. Pyne, an Overseas director, is an executive officer of UPS.  In
considering which risks related to UPS's business to reinsure, or which leasing
or other arrangements to enter into with UPS, directors and officers of Overseas
who are also directors and officers and shareowners of UPS must consider the
impact of their business decisions on each of the two companies.  Although
prevailing market conditions are among the factors considered by them in making
such decisions, there can be no assurance that transactions relating to the two
companies will be on the most favorable terms that could be obtained by either
party in the open market. Overseas does not have any formal conflict resolution
procedures. Nevertheless, in connection with the reinsurance by Overseas of
risks related to the business of UPS, Overseas believes that the rates charged
by the primary insurers reinsured by Overseas are competitive with those charged
to shippers utilizing other carriers. Additionally, in connection with major
transactions in which UPS and Overseas have been involved, primarily leasing
transactions, Overseas has generally obtained fairness or valuation opinions
from one or more leading investment banking firms or other organizations with
significant expertise in the evaluation of the interests involved.

Leasing Transactions
- --------------------

     Overseas' business has included leasing certain aircraft and real property
to subsidiaries of UPS through Overseas Partners Capital Corporation ("OPCC").
OPCC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Overseas and Overseas has guaranteed OPCC's
performance of the leasing arrangements described below.  In December 1989, OPCC
acquired from UPS the Ramapo Ridge Facility ("the Facility")  Beginning in July
1990, the Facility was leased to UPS for an initial term ending in 2019.  UPS
uses the facility as a data processing, telecommunications and operations
center.  Lease payments have fixed and variable components.  The fixed component
provides for aggregate lease payments of approximately $216 million over the
initial term of the lease. The variable component of the lease payments is based
on the number of customer accounts maintained by UPS.

                                       36

     In December 1989, OPCC acquired from UPS for approximately $67.9 million
its rights to purchase from the Boeing Company five 757 aircraft which were then
being manufactured. The aircraft were delivered to OPCC in 1990 and are leased
to UPS for a term ending in 2012. Lease payments have fixed and variable
components. The fixed component provides for minimum aggregate lease payments of
approximately $376.5 million over the term of the lease. The variable component
is based on the number of flight hours recorded for the aircraft. Rentals began
in the fourth quarter of 1990.

     OPCC has irrevocably assigned the right to receive the fixed component of
rentals on the Boeing 757 aircraft and Facility leases to its subsidiary, OPL
Funding Corp. ("OPL Funding"), a Delaware corporation.  OPL Funding pledged its
interest in these payments to secure bonds issued to finance the acquisition of
the leased assets. UPS's obligation to pay the fixed rentals to OPL Funding is
absolute and unconditional during the initial term of each lease, and continues
after an early lease termination unless UPS pays to OPL Funding an amount
sufficient to defease the remaining interest payments on the bonds.   In the
event that OPCC fails to pay certain income taxes, UPS is obligated to pay
additional rentals to provide for such taxes.   OPCC is required to reimburse
UPS the amount of any such termination or tax payments.

     At the conclusion of each of the leases, UPS may purchase the aircraft and
the Facility at fair market value. UPS has an option to purchase the land on
which the Facility is located, but not the buildings, from OPCC in 2050 for
approximately $63.7 million, subject to certain adjustments for increases in the
fair market value of the land.  In 1997, OPCC and its subsidiary received rental
payments of approximately  $42.2 million in the aggregate from UPS pursuant to
the leases described above.

Section 16(a) Filings
- ---------------------

     Based solely on the review of the forms required by Section 16(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that have been received, Overseas believes that
all filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and beneficial
owners of greater than 10% of its Common Stock have been complied with.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Board of Directors and Members
of Overseas Partners Ltd.
Hamilton, Bermuda

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Overseas
Partners Ltd. and its Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the
related statements of consolidated income, members' equity, and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America.  Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Overseas Partners Ltd. and its
Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1997 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.

================================================================================

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
    ------------------------------------------

  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Overseas Partners Ltd. (OPL) and its subsidiaries (collectively "Overseas").
Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

  Overseas is engaged in the property, casualty and life reinsurance business
and in the real estate and leasing business. A major source of its reinsurance
business is the reinsurance of shipper's insurance issued by U.S. based
insurance companies covering loss or damage to shipper's packages carried by
subsidiaries of United Parcel Service (UPS). OPL expects that package
reinsurance will continue to be a significant part of its business. However,
there can be no assurance that UPS or its subsidiaries will continue to utilize
the insurance arrangements for which OPL provides reinsurance.

  For its property and casualty reinsurance business, premiums written are
recognized as earned on a pro-rata basis over the periods of the respective
policies. Unearned premiums and acquisition costs, primarily commissions and
taxes applicable to the unexpired periods of the policies in force, are
deferred.

  Reinsurance premiums which are subject to adjustments are estimated based upon
available information.  Any variances from the estimates are recorded in the
periods in which they become known.

  Losses and loss expenses on property and casualty business include outstanding
losses, as reported, and a provision for losses incurred but not reported which
is based on estimates of the ultimate liability for losses.  Although Overseas
believes this provision is adequate, actual losses may vary from such estimates.
Any such variances will be recorded in periods in which they become known.

  For its life reinsurance business, Overseas includes the full amount of
reinsurance provided as a liability in accrued losses and loss expenses and as
an asset in deposits with insurers.  Premiums and related liabilities for future
policy benefits are recognized when premiums are due.

  Letters of credit of $371.1 million and $356.7 million at December 31, 1997
and 1996 in favor of certain reinsureds were established and are amended
annually based upon the reinsureds' actual experience.

  All highly liquid debt instruments with maturities of three months or less at
the date of acquisition are considered cash equivalents.

  Debt issuance expenses, included in other assets, and original issue discounts
are amortized over the term of the related debt.  OPL common stock held for
stock plans is carried at cost.  Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis
over 10 years.

  Real estate and leasing activities include finance leases, operating leases
with UPS and the operation of a hotel and four office buildings.  Income from
finance leases is recognized by a method which produces a constant periodic rate
of return on the outstanding investment in the lease.  Income from operating
leases is recognized as rentals and becomes receivable according to the
provisions of the leases.  The hotel air rights lease is prepaid through the
year 2077 (the expiration date of the lease) and is amortized under the
straight-line method over the  life of the lease.  Equipment under operating
leases, the hotel and the office building are recorded at cost less accumulated
depreciation, which is provided under the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives as follows:

Operating Leases with UPS
- -------------------------
Facility                            40 years
Aircraft                            35 years

Furniture, fixtures and equipment   10 years

Office Buildings
- ----------------
Building and improvements           40 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment    7 years

  Effective December 31, 1995, Overseas adopted FASB's Guide to Implementation
of Statement 115 on Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities and reclassified its available-for-sale securities as trading
securities.  Trading securities are carried at fair value.  Available-for-sale
securities were carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of
applicable income taxes, excluded from net income and reported as a separate
component of Members' Equity.  In conjunction with this transfer, Overseas
recognized in income in 1995 an unrealized gain of $48.6 million and related
taxes of $7.9 million, of which $7.0 million of gains and $5.0 million of taxes
are from prior periods that were previously included in a separate component of
Members' Equity.  Non-U.S. dollar securities are translated into U.S. dollars at
year end rates.  Overseas classifies certain U.S. Treasury notes as held-to-
maturity securities carried at amortized cost, as Overseas has the ability and
intent to hold them to maturity.  Realized gains and losses on sales of
available-for-sale investments are recognized in net income on the specific
identification basis.

  Estimated fair value of investments are based on market quotations and
estimated fair value of debt is based on dealer supplied quotations.

  Net income and book value per share are based on 131 million shares in 1997,
135 million shares in 1996 and 136 million shares in 1995.

2.  TAXES
    -----

OPL is incorporated under the laws of the Islands of Bermuda and does not
consider itself to be engaged in a trade or business in the United States and,
therefore, does not expect to be subject to U.S. income taxes.  Certain of OPL's
subsidiaries engage in business in the U.S., primarily Overseas Partners Capital
Corp. ("OPCC"),  and as a result, it, but not OPL, is subject to U.S. income
taxes.  Under current Bermuda law, OPL is not obligated to pay any tax in
Bermuda based upon income or capital gains.

================================================================================

  The United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has issued a Notice of
Deficiency with respect to the Company's 1984 taxable year in which it asserted
that the Company is subject to U.S. tax in the amount of $53 million for the
year 1984, plus penalties and interest for that year. On August 18, 1995, the
Company filed a Petition in the United States Tax Court contesting the proposed
assessment of tax in the Notice of Deficiency.  A trial was held before the
United States Tax Court in two sessions during the fall of 1997, the second of
which ended on November 7, 1997.  An additional trial session previously
scheduled for the week of December 8, 1997 was cancelled by agreement of the
Company and the IRS.  Trial briefs are due to be filed on or before February 10,
1998 and reply briefs are due to be filed on or before April 16, 1998.  The IRS
has also asserted that OPL is subject to U.S. taxation for its 1985 through 1987
taxable years and has proposed an aggregate assessment of $240 million of tax,
plus penalties and interest, for those years.  The Company has filed a Protest
against the proposed assessment with the Appellate Division of the IRS with
respect to the years 1985 through 1987.  The IRS has further asserted that OPL
is subject to U.S. taxation for the years 1988 through 1990 and has proposed an
aggregate assessment of $170 million of tax, plus penalties and interest, for
those years.  The Company has filed a Protest against the proposed assessment
with the Appellate Division of the IRS with respect to the years 1988 through
1990.  The IRS has not proposed an assessment for years subsequent to 1990.
However, the IRS may take similar positions for subsequent years pending
resolution of the years currently in dispute.  OPL believes that it has no tax
liability, that it is not subject to U.S. taxation, and that there is
substantial authority for its position.  It has vigorously contested the Notice
of Deficiency for 1984 and will vigorously contest proposed assessments for the
years 1985 through 1990 and any future assessments.

  Deferred income taxes calculated at the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35%
plus appropriate state income taxes on the income of those subsidiaries engaged
in business in the United States result from temporary differences in the
recognition of revenues and expenses for financial statement and income tax
purposes.  The tax effects of those temporary differences are as follows:  (000s

  The right to receive fixed minimum rentals on the Boeing 757 aircraft and data
processing facility is used to collateralize and service the debt interest on
the Series A and Series B bonds.  The principal of these bonds is guaranteed by
an OPL wholly-owned subsidiary, Overseas Partners Credit, Inc.  Its obligations
are secured by zero-coupon U.S. Treasury notes owned by that subsidiary.  On or
prior to the scheduled maturity of each series of the bonds, the U.S. Treasury
notes which secure the guarantee of that series will mature in an amount equal
to or exceeding the principal amount of that series.

          This Note evidences a portion of a loan (the "Loan") in the aggregate
                                                       -------                 
principal sum of One Hundred Ninety-Five Million and No/100 Dollars

Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($97,500,000.00) dated the date
of this Note made by Maker to Holder.  This Note, together with the Class B
Note, are collectively referred to as the "Notes".
                                          ------- 

          1.  Payment of Principal and Interest.  Commencing on the first day of
              ---------------------------------                                 
the second (2nd) calendar month next succeeding the Advance Date (hereinafter
defined) and on the first day of each and every calendar month thereafter, to
and including, the first day of July, 2007 (each a "Payment Date"), there shall
be due and payable under the Notes equal monthly installments of principal and
interest on the outstanding principal of the Loan at the rate of seven and
44/100ths percent (7.44%) per annum (the "Loan Interest Rate"), each in the
aggregate amount of One Million Three Hundred Fifty-Five Thousand Four Hundred
SixtyFive and 67/100 DOLLARS ($1,355,465.67) (the "Monthly Payment Amount"),
based upon an amortization period of thirty (30) years.  Maker hereby
acknowledges and agrees that a substantial portion of the original principal sum
evidenced by the Notes shall be outstanding and due on the Maturity Date (as
hereinafter defined).  Such final payment of the unpaid principal balance of the
Loan, together with all remaining accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all
other sums then outstanding evidenced by the Notes or secured by the Mortgage
      ----                                                                   
(as hereinafter defined) or evidenced or secured by any other instrument
collateral, incidental or related thereto (the Notes, the Mortgage and any and
all other documents evidencing, securing or relating to the Loan, and all
renewals, modifications, consolidations and extensions of such
<PAGE>
 
documents being herein collectively referred to as the "Loan Documents"), shall
be immediately due and payable in full on such Maturity Date.

          Interest on the principal sum evidenced by this Note shall accrue from
the date hereof (the "Advance Date") at the rate of six and 75/100ths percent
(6.75%) per annum (the "Class A Interest Rate").

          Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month,
and a three hundred sixty (360) day year; provided, however, that the
calculation of interest under Sections 2(a)(i) , shall be done on the basis of
the actual number of days in such months that the Loan is outstanding and a 365-
day or 366-day year, as applicable.

          2.  Application of Payments (a) Unless an Event of Default (as defined
              -----------------------                                           
in the Mortgage) shall have occurred and be continuing, principal and interest
under this Note shall be payable as follows:

          (i) Interest accruing from the Advance Date to and including the last
day of the calendar month in which the Advance Date occurs shall be paid on the
first day of the calendar month next succeeding the Advance Date;

          (ii) Commencing on the first day of the second (2nd) calendar month
next succeeding the Advance Date and on the first day of each and every calendar
month thereafter, until the entire principal sum of this Note and all accrued
interest thereon has been repaid in full, to monthly installments of principal
and interest payable under this Note at the Class A Interest Rate in an amount
equal to the Monthly Payment Amount minus the amount of scheduled interest
payments due on such date in respect of the Class B Note.

          (iii)  On August 1, 2007 (the 'Maturity Date"), unless sooner paid in
full, a final payment in the aggregate amount of the unpaid principal sum
evidenced by this Note, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other
sums evidenced by this Note, shall become immediately due and payable in full.

          (b) If an Event of Default under the Mortgage shall have occurred and
be continuing, all amounts tendered by the Maker or otherwise available for
payment of the Loan shall be applied, in the following order of priority:

          (i)        and unpaid Class A-1 Strip Interest (as defined in the
                     Class B to accrued Note) under the Class B Note and to
                     accrued and unpaid Class B Strip Interest (as defined in
                     the Class B Note) under the Class B Note, pro rata in
                     accordance with the amounts of such interest that is
                     accrued and unpaid;

          (ii)       to accrued and unpaid interest on this Note at the Class A
                     Interest Rate;

          (iii)      to the principal of this Note until such principal has been
                     paid in full;

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
 
          (iv)       to accrued and unpaid interest due under the Class B Note
                     at the Class B Interest Rate (as defined in the Class B
                     Note) under such Class B Note and to accrued and unpaid
                     Class A-2 Strip Interest (as defined in the Class B Note)
                     under the Class B Note;

          (v)        to the principal of the Class B Note until such principal
                     has been paid in full;

          (vi)       to any Note Prepayment Fee or Default Prepayment Fee on
                     this Note and the Class B Note, in that order;

          (vii)      to any default interest in excess of the interest paid in
                     accordance with clauses (i) and (iii) above on this Note
                     and the Class B Note, in that order;

          (viii)     to late charges (applied to the Notes depending on the
                     proportion of the related late payment applicable to each
                     Note); and

          (ix)       to any other amounts payable under the Mortgage or any of
                     the other Loan Documents.

          3.  Security.  This Note is secured by, among other things, that
              --------                                                    
certain Leasehold Mortgage, Security Agreement and Fixture Financing Statement
of even date herewith (the "Mortgage"; which term includes all renewals,
modifications, consolidations and/or extensions thereof) granted by Maker to
Holder.  Each capitalized term used herein, unless otherwise defined herein,
shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Mortgage.  The obligations,
covenants and agreements of the Mortgage are hereby made a part of this Note to
the same extent and with the same effect as if they were fully set forth herein,
and Maker does hereby agree to perform and keep each and every obligation,
covenant and agreement set forth in this Note and in the other Loan Documents,
subject to applicable notice and cure provisions, if any, in the Loan Documents.
This Note shall evidence, the indebtedness described herein, any future loans or
advances that may be made to or on behalf of Maker by Holder at any time or
times hereafter under the Mortgage, and allocable by Holder to this Note and any
other amounts required to be paid by Maker under the Loan Documents and
allocable by Holder to this Note, and any such loans, advances or amounts shall
be added to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, and shall bear interest at
the Loan Interest Rate unless a greater rate is expressly provided for in this
Note or the other Loan Documents.  The Mortgage shall secure among other things,
all the indebtedness described herein and in the Class B Note, any future loans
or advances that may be made to or on behalf of Maker by Holder at any time or
times hereafter under the Mortgage, and any other amounts required to be paid by
Maker under the Loan Documents.

          4.  Late Charge.  In the event that any installment of interest,
              -----------                                                 
principal, principal and interest or required escrow deposits shall become
overdue for a period in excess of seven (7) days, a "late charge" of four cents
($.04) for each dollar ($1.00), or part thereof, so overdue may be charged to
Maker by Holder for the purpose of defraying the expenses

                                      -3-
<PAGE>
 
incident to handling such delinquent payment.  This charge shall be in addition
to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy Holder may have and is in addition to
Holder's right to collect reasonable fees and charges of any agents or attorneys
which Holder employs in connection with any Event of Default.  Such late charges
if not previously paid shall become part of the indebtedness evidenced hereby,
and shall, at the option of Holder, be added to any succeeding monthly payment
due under the Loan Documents.  Failure to pay such late charges with such
succeeding monthly payment shall constitute an Event of Default and such late
charges shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date due.

          5.  Acceleration Upon an Event of Default.  It is hereby expressly
agreed that upon the failure of Maker to pay any sum herein specified when due
(after giving effect to applicable notice and cure periods, if any), or upon the
occurrence of any other Event of Default, the unpaid principal sum evidenced by
this Note, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other sums evidenced
and/or secured by the Loan Documents shall, at the option of Holder, become
immediately due and payable, and payment of the unpaid principal sum evidenced
by this Note, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other sums
evidenced or secured by the Loan Documents, may be enforced and recovered at
once.

          6. Interest on an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default (including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay any sum
herein specified when due, after giving effect to applicable notice and cure
periods, if any), the unpaid principal sum evidenced by this Note, all accrued
and unpaid interest thereon, and all other sums evidenced and/or secured by the
Loan Documents and allocable by Holder to this Note shall bear interest at a
rate per annum (the "Default Rate") equal to the lesser of: (i) the highest rate
of interest permitted to be contracted for under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts (the "State"), or (ii) four percent (4%) per annum above the Loan
Interest Rate. The Default Rate shall be in lieu of any other interest rate
otherwise applicable and shall commence, without notice, immediately upon and
from the occurrence of such Event of Default and shall continue until all
defaults are cured and all sums, if any, then due and payable under the Loan
Documents are paid in full.

          7. Limitation on Interest. All agreements made by Maker relating
directly or indirectly to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note and the other
Loan Documents are expressly limited so that in no event or contingency
whatsoever shall the amount of interest received, charged or contracted for by
Holder exceed the highest lawful amount of interest permissible under the laws
of the State. If, under any circumstances whatsoever, performance of any
provision of this Note or the other Loan Documents, at the time performance of
such provision shall be due, shall result in the highest lawful rate of interest
permissible under the laws of the State being exceeded, then ipso facto, the
amount of interest received, charged or contracted for by Holder shall be
reduced to the highest lawful amount of interest permissible under the laws of
the State, and if for any reason whatsoever, Holder shall ever receive, charge
or contract for, as interest, an amount which would be deemed unlawful, such
interest shall, at the option of Holder, be refunded to Maker (if theretofore
paid) or applied to the payment of the last maturing installment or installments
of principal to be paid on this Note (whether or not due and payable) and not to
the payment of interest. Without limitation of the

                                      -4-
<PAGE>
 
foregoing, any amounts contracted for, charged or received under the Loan
Documents relating directly or indirectly to the indebtedness evidenced by this
Note, included for the purpose of determining whether the interest rate would
exceed the highest lawful rate, shall be calculated, to the extent permitted by
the laws of the State, by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading such
interest over the period of the full stated term of this Note.

          8.  Prepayment privilege.  The principal sum evidenced by this Note
may not be prepaid, in whole or 'in part, at any time during the term hereof
except as set forth in this Section 8 or as required by Holder pursuant to
Sections 1.04, 1.07 or 1.08 of the Mortgage (it being agreed that any such
payment required by Holder under Sections 1.04, 1.07 and 1.08 of the Mortgage,
as aforesaid, shall not be considered a prepayment for purposes of this Section
8 or Section 9, below, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
contained, no Note Prepayment Fee or Default Prepayment Fee shall be due and
payable in connection therewith).  Maker shall have the right to prepay the
entire principal sum evidenced by the Notes collectively and secured by the
Mortgage (but not a part of said indebtedness) together with all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon and all other sums payable under the Notes, the
Mortgage, and the other Loan Documents provided that: (i) all monthly
installment payments due on or before the date of prepayment have been paid in
full; (ii) Holder and the holder of the Class B Note have received a written
notice of prepayment, which notice shall specify an estimated date of prepayment
no less dm sixty (60) days subsequent to such holder's receipt of such notice,
provided that in the event that Maker shall give such notice and then revoke
such notice three times in any one calendar year, then the fourth such notice in
such calendar year shall be irrevocable; (iii) Holder and the holder of the
Class B Note have received ten business days written notice of the actual date
of prepayment, which shall be no earlier than the estimated date of prepayment
and shall at all times be on a Payment Date, and which notice once received by
Holder shall be irrevocable notwithstanding the provisions of clause (ii) above;
and (iv) the Note Prepayment Fee (as hereinafter defined) is paid by Maker to
Holder and the holder of the Class B Note on the date of prepayment. Maker
agrees that Holder shall have no obligation to accept any prepayment of the
principal sum evidenced by this Note except as expressly stated in this Section.

         In the event any partial prepayment of the Loan is required pursuant to
Sections 1.04, 1.07 or 1.08 of the Mortgage, any principal amount prepaid shall,
if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied first
to the payment of any Class A-1 Strip Interest and Class B Strip Interest
payable under the Class B Note through the next Payment Date, pro rata in
accordance with the amounts of such interest that is payable, next to the
payment of any interest payable under this Note through the next Payment Date,
next, to the payment of the principal amount outstanding under this Note, next,
to the payment of any Class A-2 Interest and any interest on the outstanding
principal balance of the Class B Note at the Class B Interest Rate payable under
the Class B Note through the next Payment Date, and the balance, if any, to the
payment of the principal amount outstanding under the Class B Note.  Without in
any way affecting the rights or obligations of any parties to this Note, and for
illustrative purposes only, attached hereto as Exhibit A is an example of how
payments under the Loan would be applied in the event of such a partial
prepayment.  If an Event of

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
 
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any amount so prepaid shall be
applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(b) hereof.

          For purposes hereof, the term "Note Prepayment Fee" shall mean the
difference between (i) the present value of all remaining payments of principal
and interest including without limitation, the outstanding principal due on the
Maturity Date, discounted at the rate which, when adjusted for a monthly payment
interval, is equivalent to the Enhanced Treasury Rate (as hereinafter defined);
and (ii) the amount of principal being prepaid.  In no event, however, shall the
Note Prepayment Fee be less than zero dollars ($0.00). For purposes of computing
the Note Prepayment Fee, the term "Enhanced Treasury Rate, shall mean the sum of
(i) fifty (50) basis points; and (ii) the Treasury Rate (as hereinafter
defined).  For purposes of computing the Enhanced Treasury Rate, the term
"Treasury Rate" shall mean the bond equivalent yield on securities issued by the
United States Treasury having a maturity equal to the remaining term of the Loan
evidenced hereby, as quoted in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519)
                                                                   ----------
under the heading "U.S. Government Securities-Treasury Constant Maturity" for
the date on which prepayment is being made. If this rate is not available as of
the date of prepayment, the Treasury Rate shall be determined by interpolating
between the yield on securities of the next longer and next shorter maturity. If
the Treasury Rate is no longer published, Holder shall reasonably select a
comparable rate. Holder will, upon request, provide an estimate of the amount of
the Note Prepayment Fee two weeks before the date of the scheduled prepayment.

          9.  Default Prepayment Fee.  Maker agrees that any tender of payment
              ----------------------                                          
by Maker or any other party of the principal sum evidenced by this Note, other
than as expressly set forth in Section 8 of this Note or as provided for in
Sections 1.04, 1.07 or 1.08 of the Mortgage, shall constitute a prohibited
prepayment hereunder.  Maker further agrees that should: (I) any default be made
in the payment of any amount due under this Note, or any other Event of Default
have occurred and (ii) the maturity hereof be accelerated, then a tender of
payment by Maker, or by any entity controlling, controlled by or under common
control with, Maker or by anyone on behalf of Maker, of the amount necessary to
satisfy all sums due under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, -
any sums due on any judgment rendered in any foreclosure action, or any amounts
necessary to redeem the property) made at any time prior to, during, or after, a
judicial foreclosure or a sale pursuant to the exercise of a power of sale of
the Property, shall constitute an evasion of the payment terms hereof and shall
be deemed to be a prohibited prepayment hereunder.  Maker acknowledges that
Holder has relied upon the anticipated investment return under this Note in
entering into transactions with, and in making commitments to, third parties;
therefore, the tender of any prohibited prepayment, shall, to the extent
permitted by law, include a "Default Prepayment Fee," equal to the Note
Prepayment Fee.  Maker agrees that the Default Prepayment Fee represents the
reasonable estimate of Holder and Maker of a fair average compensation for the
loss that may be sustained by Holder due to the prohibited prepayment of the
indebtedness evidenced by this Note.  Such Default Prepayment Fee shall be paid
without prejudice to the right of Holder to collect any other amounts provided
to be paid under the Loan Documents.  Nothing herein contained shall constitute
an agreement on the part of Holder to accept any prepayment, other than as
expressly provided in Section 8 of this Note.

          10.  Liability of Maker. (a) Except for the personal liability and
               ------------------                                           
guaranty obligations set forth in the Guaranty (as hereinafter defined), and as
except expressly set forth in this Section 10, notwithstanding anything to the

shareholder, member, partner, officer, director, employee, trustee, affiliate,

Holder, on its own behalf and on behalf of its successors and assigns and any
other party, hereby waive any such personal liability.  A "Constituent Member'
in Maker shall mean any person or entity that is a partner in or member of
Maker, or any person or entity that, directly or indirectly through one or more
limited liability companies or partnerships, is a partner in or member of Maker.
For purposes of the Loan, the Loan Documents and such instruments and
certificates, and any such amendment(s) or modification(s) thereto, neither the
negative capital account of any Constituent Member in Maker, nor any obligation
of any Constituent Member in Maker, to restore a negative capital account or to
contribute or advance capital to Maker or to any other Constituent Member in
Maker shall at any time be deemed to be the property or an asset of Maker or any
such other Constituent Member (and neither Holder nor any of its successors and
assigns shall have any right to collect, enforce or proceed against or with
respect to any such negative capital account or such Constituent Member's
obligation to restore, contribute or advance capital to the applicable limited
liability company or partnership).

         (b) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing contained in this
Section 10 shall be deemed to prejudice the right of Holder following
foreclosure or a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure to (i) recover actual damages
against Copley for fraud, intentional material misrepresentation or intentional
waste; and/or (ii) recover any condemnation proceeds or insurance proceeds or
other similar funds or payments attributable to the Property which have been
intentionally misapplied by Copley (but only to the extent of such intentional
misapplication) or which, under the terms of the Loan Documents, should have
been paid to Holder (but only to the extent of the amount that should have been
paid to Holder), and/or (iii) recover the amount of any tenant security

Copley shall be personally liable for Copley's obligations arising in connection
with the matters set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) to (v) inclusive to the
extent provided for in said clauses.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section 10, Copley shall have personal liability under the
Unsecured Indemnity Agreement of even date herewith.

10, on the date hereof JMB Realty Corporation ("JMB") and Overseas Partners

executed and delivered to Holder a Guaranty Agreement (the "Guaranty") by which
such Guarantors have jointly and severally guaranteed Copley's personal
liability for the matters set forth in Section 10(b) clauses (i) to (v)
inclusive and under the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement, and all costs incurred by
Holder in connection with the recovery of any amounts from Guarantors under the
Guaranty.  In the event that (x) JMB transfers its interest in Copley to Urban
Shopping Centers, L.P. ("Urban") in accordance with the Loan Documents, and (y)
Urban delivers to Holder a guaranty, in form, scope and substance substantially
similar to the Guaranty, Holder shall release JMB of its liability under the
Guaranty with respect to matters arising after the date of such delivery.

forth in clauses (b) (i) through (v), above, and under the Unsecured Indemnity
Agreement, are sometimes referred to herein and in the other Loan Documents as
the "Recourse Obligations".

          11.   Waiver by Maker.  Except to the extent otherwise expressly
                ---------------

delay or omission in the exercise by Holder, of any right or remedy under the
Loan Documents shall preclude, waive or limit any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  Holder shall at all times
have the right to proceed against any portion of, or interest in, the Property

and interest payable under Paragraph 1, Maker will be required to pay only one
aggregate monthly installment of principal and interest under the Notes in an
amount equal to the Monthly Payment Amount.  At no time shall Maker be required
to make payments to more than one Holder or servicer of the Loan.

original, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument.

and a three hundred sixty (360) day year; provided, however, that the
calculation of interest under Section 2(a)(i) shall be done on the basis of the
actual number of days in such months that the Loan is outstanding and a 365-day
or 366-day year, as applicable.

          2.  Application of Payment. (a) Unless an Event of Default (as defined
              ----------------------                                            
in the Mortgage) shall have occurred and be continuing, principal and interest

next succeeding the Advance Date and on the first day of each and every calendar

this Note (a) at the Class B Interest Rate on the outstanding principal balance
of this Note, (b) at the Class B Strip Interest Rate on the outstanding

          (iii) On the Amortization Commencement Date, a payment of principal
and interest equal to the Monthly Payment Amount minus the amount of the final
payment of any remaining  scheduled principal and interest under the Class A
Note on such date;

          (iv)  Commencing on the first day of the first (lst) calendar month
succeeding the Amortization Commencement Date and on the, first day of each and

full, a final payment in the aggregate amount of the unpaid principal sum
evidenced by this Note, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other
sums evidenced by this Note, shall become immediately due and payable in full.

          (b)   If an Event of Default under the Mortgage shall have occurred
and be continuing, all amounts tendered by Maker or otherwise available for
payment of Loan shall be applied, in the following order of priority:

          (i)    to accrued and unpaid Class A-1 Strip Interest under this Note
                 and to accrued and unpaid Class B Strip Interest under this
                 Note, pro rata in accordance with the amounts of such interest
                 that is accrued and unpaid;

          (ii)   to accrued and unpaid interest on the Class A Note at the Class
                 A Interest Rate;

          (iii)  to the principal of the Class A Note until such principal has
                 been paid in full;

          (iv)   to accrued and unpaid interest on this Note at the Class B
                 Interest Rate and to accrued and unpaid Class A-2 Strip

          (v)    to the principal of this Note until such principal has been
                 paid in full;

          (vi)   to any Note Prepayment Fee or Default Prepayment Fee on the
                 Class A Note and this Note, in that order;

          (vii)  to any default interest in excess of the interest paid in
                 accordance with clauses (i) and (iii) above on the Class A Note
                 and this Note, in that order;

          (viii) to late charges (applied to the Notes depending on the
                 proportion of the related late payment applicable to each
                 Note); and

          (ix)   to any other amounts payable under the Mortgage or any of the
                 other Loan Documents.

          3.     Security.  This Note is secured by, among other things, that
                 --------                                                    
certain Leasehold Mortgage, Security Agreement and Fixture Financing Statement
of even date herewith (the "Mortgage"; which term includes all renewals,
modifications, consolidations and/or extensions thereof) granted by Maker to
Holder.  Each capitalized term used herein, unless otherwise defined herein,
shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Mortgage.  The obligations,
covenants and agreements of the Mortgage are hereby made a part of this Note to
the same extent and with the same effect as if they were fully set forth herein,
and Maker does hereby agree to perform and keep each and every obligation,
covenant and agreement set forth in this Note and in the other Loan Documents,
subject to applicable notice
<PAGE>
 
and cure provisions, if any, in the Loan Documents.  This Note shall evidence
the indebtedness described herein, any future loans or advances that may be made
to or on behalf of Maker by Holder at any time or times hereafter under the
Mortgage and allocable by Holder to this Note, and any other amounts required to
be paid by Maker under the Loan Documents and allocable by Holder to this Note,
and any such loans, advances or amounts shall be added to the indebtedness
evidenced by this Note, and shall bear interest at the Loan Interest Rate unless
a greater rate is expressly provided for in this Note or the other Loan
Documents.  The Mortgage shall secure among other things, all the indebtedness
described herein and in the Class A Note, any future loans or advances that may
be made to or on behalf of Maker by Holder at any time or times hereafter under
the Mortgage, and any other amounts required to be paid by Maker under the Loan
Documents.

          4.     Late Charge.  In the event that any installment of interest,
                 -----------                                                 
principal, principal and interest or required escrow deposits shall become
overdue for a period in excess of seven (7) days, a "late charge" of four cents
($.04) for each dollar ($1.00), or part thereof, so overdue may be charged to
Maker by Holder for the purpose of defraying the expenses incident to handling
such delinquent payment.  This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu
of, any other remedy Holder may have and is in addition to Holder's right to
collect reasonable fees and charges of any agents or attorneys which Holder
employs in connection with any Event of Default.  Such late charges if not
previously paid shall become part of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, and
shall, at the option of Holder, be added to any succeeding monthly payment due
under the Loan Documents.  Failure to pay such late charges with such succeeding
monthly payment shall constitute an Event of Default and such late charges shall
bear interest at the Default Rate from the date due.

          5.     Acceleration Upon an Event of Default.  It is hereby expressly
                 -------------------------------------                         
agreed that upon the failure of Maker to pay any sum herein specified when due
(after giving effect to applicable notice and cure periods, if any), or upon the
occurrence of any other Event of Default, the unpaid principal sum evidenced by
the Note, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other sums evidenced
and/or secured by the Loan Documents shall, at the option of Holder, become
immediately due and payable, and payment of the unpaid principal sum evidenced
by this Note, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other sums
evidenced or secured by the Loan Documents, may be enforced and recovered at
once.

          6.     Interest Upon an Event of Default.  Upon the occurrence of an
                 ---------------------------------                            
Event of Default (including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay any
sum herein specified when due (after giving effect to applicable notice and cure
periods, if any), the unpaid principal sum evidenced by this Note, all accrued
and unpaid interest thereon, and all other sums evidenced and/or secured by the
Loan Documents and allocable by Holder to this Note shall bear interest at a
rate per annum (the "Default Rate") equal to the lesser of: (i) the highest rate
of interest permitted to be contracted for under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts (the "State"), or (ii) four percent (4%) per annum above the Loan
Interest Rate.  The Default Rate shall be in lieu of any other interest rate
otherwise applicable and shall commence, without notice, immediately upon and
from the occurrence of such Event of
<PAGE>
 
Default and shall continue until all defaults are cured and all sums, if any,
then due and payable under the Loan Documents are paid in full.



          7.     Limitation on Interest.  All agreements made by Maker relating
                 ----------------------                                        
directly or indirectly to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note and the other
Loan Documents are expressly limited so that in no event or contingency
whatsoever shall the amount of interest received, charged or contracted for by
Holder exceed the highest lawful amount of interest permissible under the laws
of the State.  If, under any circumstances whatsoever, performance of any
provision of this Note or the other Loan Documents, at the time performance of
such provision shall be due, shall result in the highest lawful rate of interest
permissible under the laws of the State being exceeded, then ipso facto, the
amount of interest received, charged or contracted for by Holder shall be
reduced to the highest lawful amount of interest permissible under the laws of
the State, and if for any reason whatsoever, Holder shall ever receive, charge
or contract for, as interest, an amount which would be deemed unlawful, such
interest shall, at the option of Holder, be refunded to Maker (if theretofore
paid) or applied to the payment of the last maturing installment or installments
of principal to be paid on this Note (whether or not due and payable) and not to
the payment of interest.  Without limitation of the foregoing, any amounts
contracted for, charged or received under the Loan Documents relating directly
or indirectly to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, included for the
purpose of determining whether the interest rate would exceed the highest lawful
rate, shall be calculated, to the extent permitted by the laws of the State, by
amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading such interest over the period of
the full stated term of this Note.

          8.     Prepayment Privilege.  The principal sum evidenced by this Note
                 --------------------                                           
may not be prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time during the term hereof
except as set forth in this Section 8 or as required by Holder pursuant to
Sections 1.04, 1.07 or 1.08 of the Mortgage (it being agreed that any such
payment required by Holder under Sections 1.04, 1.07 and 1.08 of the Mortgage,
as aforesaid, shall not be considered a prepayment for purposes of this Section
8 or Section 9, below, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
contained, no Note Prepayment Fee or Default Prepayment Fee shall be due and
payable in connection therewith).  Maker shall have the right to prepay the
entire principal sum evidenced by the Notes collectively and secured by the
Mortgage (but not a part of said indebtedness) together with all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon and all other sums, payable under the Notes, the
Mortgage, and the other Loan Documents provided that: (i) all monthly
installment payments due on or before the date of prepayment have been paid in
full; (ii) Holder and the holder of the Class A Note have received a written
notice of prepayment, which notice shall specify an estimated date of prepayment
no less than sixty (60) days subsequent to such holder's receipt of such notice,
provided that in the event that Maker shall give such notice and then revoke
such notice three times in any one calendar year, then the fourth such notice in
such calendar year shall be irrevocable; (iii) Holder and the holder of the
Class A Note have received five business days written notice of the actual date
of prepayment, which shall be no earlier than the estimated date of prepayment
and shall at all times be on a Payment Date, and which notice once received by
Holder shall be irrevocable notwithstanding the provisions of clause (ii) above;
and (iv) the Note Prepayment Fee (as hereinafter defined) is paid by Maker to
Holder and the holder of the Class A Note on the date of prepayment.
<PAGE>
 
Maker agrees that Holder shall have no obligation to accept any prepayment of
the principal sum evidenced by this Note except as expressly stated in this
Section.

          In the event any partial prepayment of the Loan is required pursuant
to Sections 1.04, 1.07 or 1.08 of the Mortgage, any principal amount prepaid
shall, if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied
first to the payment of any Class A-1 Strip Interest and Class B Strip Interest
payable under this Note through the next Payment Date, pro rata in accordance
with the amounts of such interest that is payable, next, to payment of any
interest payable under the Class A Note through the next Payment Date, next, to
the payment of the principal amount outstanding under the Class A Note, next, to
the payment of any Class A-2 Interest and any interest on the outstanding
principal balance of this Note at the Class B Interest Rate payable under this
Note through the next Payment Date, and the balance, if any, to the payment of
the principal amount outstanding under this Note. Without in any way affecting
the rights or obligations of any parties to this Note, and for illustrative
purposes only, attached hereto as Exhibit A is an example of how payments under
the Loan would be applied in the event of such a partial prepayment. If an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any amount so prepaid shall be
applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(b) hereof.

          For purposes hereof, the term "Note Prepayment Fee" shall mean the
difference between (i) the present value of all remaining payments of principal
and interest including without limitation, the outstanding principal due on the
Maturity Date, discounted at the rate which, when adjusted for a monthly payment
interval, is equivalent to the Enhanced Treasury Rate (as hereinafter defined);
and (ii) the amount of principal being prepaid.  In no event, however, shall the
Note Prepayment Fee be less than zero dollars ($0.00). For purposes of computing
the Note Prepayment Fee, the term "Enhanced Treasury Rate, shall mean the sum of
(i) fifty (50) basis points; and (ii) the Treasury Rate (as hereinafter
defined).  For purposes of computing the Enhanced Treasury Rate, the term
"Treasury Rate" shall mean the bond equivalent yield on securities issued by the
United States Treasury having a maturity equal to the remaining term of the Loan
evidenced hereby, as quoted in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519)
                                                                   ----------
under the heading "U.S. Government Securities-Treasury Constant Maturity" for
the date on which prepayment is being made.  If this rate is not available as of
the date of prepayment, the Treasury Rate shall be determined by interpolating
between the yield on securities of the next longer and next shorter maturity.
If the Treasury Rate is no longer published, Holder shall reasonably select a
comparable rate.  Holder will, upon request, provide an estimate of the amount
of the Note Prepayment Fee two weeks before the date of the scheduled
prepayment.

          9.     Default Prepayment Fee.  Maker agrees that any tender of
                 ----------------------
payment by Maker or any other party of the principal sum evidenced by this Note,
other than as expressly set forth in Section 8 of this Note or as provided for
in Sections 1.04, 1.07 or 1.08 of the Mortgage, shall constitute a prohibited
prepayment hereunder. Maker further agrees that should: (i) any default be made
in the payment of any amount due under this Note, or any other Event of Default
have occurred and (ii) the maturity hereof be accelerated, then a tender of
payment by Maker, or by any entity controlling, controlled by or under common
control
<PAGE>
 
with, Maker or by anyone on behalf of Maker, of the amount necessary to satisfy
all sums due under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any sums
due on any judgment rendered in any foreclosure action, or any amounts necessary
to redeem the Property) made at any time prior to, during, or after, a judicial
foreclosure or a sale pursuant to the exercise of a power of sale of the
Property, shall constitute an evasion of the payment terms hereof and shall be
deemed to be a prohibited prepayment hereunder.  Maker acknowledges that Holder
has relied upon the anticipated investment return under this Note in entering
into transactions with, and in making commitments to, third parties; therefore,
the tender of any prohibited prepayment, shall, to the extent permitted by law,
include a "Default Prepayment Fee," equal to the Note Prepayment Fee.  Maker
agrees that the Default Prepayment Fee represents the reasonable estimate of
Holder and Maker of a fair average compensation for the loss that may be
sustained by Holder due to the prohibited prepayment of the indebtedness
evidenced by this Note.  Such Default Prepayment Fee shall be paid without
prejudice to the right of Holder to collect any other amounts provided to be
paid under the Loan Documents.  Nothing herein contained shall constitute an
agreement on the part of Holder to accept any prepayment, other than as
expressly provided in Section 8 of this Note.

          10.    Liability of Maker. (a) Except for the personal liability and
                 ------------------                                           
guaranty obligations set forth in the Guaranty (as hereinafter defined), and
except as expressly set forth in this Section 10, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Note or in any of the other Loan Documents, but
without in any manner releasing, impairing or otherwise affecting this Note or
any of the other Loan Documents, or the validity hereof or thereof, or the lien
of the Mortgage, neither Maker, nor any present or future "Constituent Member"
(as hereinafter defined) in or agent of Maker nor any present or future
shareholder, member, partner, officer, director, employee, trustee, affiliate,
beneficiary, advisor, principal, participant or agent of or in any corporation,
trust or other entity that is or becomes a Constituent Member in Maker, shall
have any personal liability, directly or indirectly, under or in connection with
the Loan, the Loan Documents or any other instrument or certificate executed in
connection with the Loan Documents or any amendment(s) or modification(s) to any
of the foregoing made at any time or times, heretofore or hereafter; the
recourse of Holder, and its successors and assigns, under or in connection with
the Loan, the Loan Documents and such instruments, certificates, amendment(s)
and modification(s), shall be limited to the Mortgaged Property only, and
Holder, on its own behalf and on behalf of its successors and assigns and any
other party, hereby waive any such personal liability.  A "Constituent Member"
in Maker shall mean any person or entity that is a partner in or member of
Maker, or any person or entity that, directly or indirectly through one or more
limited liability companies or partnerships, is a partner in or member of Maker.
For purposes of the Loan, the Loan Documents and such instruments and
certificates, and any such amendment(s) or modification(s) thereto, neither the
negative capital account of any Constituent Member in Maker, nor any obligation
of any Constituent Member in Maker, to restore a negative capital account or to
contribute or advance capital to Maker or to any other Constituent Member in
Maker shall at any time be deemed to be the property or an asset of Maker or any
such other Constituent Member (and neither Holder nor any of its successors and
assigns shall have any right to collect, enforce or proceed against or with
respect to any
<PAGE>
 
such negative capital account or such Constituent Member's obligation to
restore, contribute or advance capital to the applicable limited liability
company or partnership).

          (b) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing contained in this
Section 10 shall be deemed to prejudice the right of Holder following
foreclosure or a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure to (i) recover actual damages
against Copley for fraud, intentional material misrepresentation or intentional
waste; and/or (ii) recover any condemnation proceeds or insurance proceeds or
other similar funds or payments attributable to the Property which have been
intentionally misapplied by Copley (but only to the extent of such intentional
misapplication) or which, under the terms of the Loan Documents, should have
been paid to Holder (but only to the extent of the amount that should have been
paid to Holder), and/or (iii) recover the amount of any tenant security
deposits, prepaid rents or expense recoveries under the Leases (as defined in
the Mortgage) paid to or held by Copley in connection with the Property and not
properly applied or turned over to Holder after foreclosure of the Property or
deed-in-lieu of foreclosure; and/or (iv) recover the rents and revenues received
by Copley from the Property after the occurrence of an Event of Default that is
continuing, which have not been applied to pay any portion of the indebtedness
evidenced by the Note, operating (including leasing) and maintenance expenses of
the Mortgaged Property, Premiums (as defined in the Mortgage), Impositions (as
defined in the Mortgage), deposits into reserve or replacement or other sums
required by the Loan Documents or capital expenditures and repairs; and/or (v)
recover actual damages against Copley, caused by the material breach by Copley
of the covenants, obligations and liabilities, contained in Sections 3.08, 3.11
and 3.17 of the Mortgage.  Copley shall be personally, -liable for Copley's
obligations arising in connection with the matters set forth in the foregoing
clauses (i) to (v) inclusive to the extent provided for in said clauses.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10, Copley
shall have personal liability under the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement of even
date herewith.

          (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
10, on the date hereof JMB Realty Corporation ("JMB") and Overseas Partners
Capital Corporation ("OPCC"; JMB and OPCC, collectively, the "Guarantors") have
executed and delivered to Holder a Guaranty Agreement (the "Guaranty") by which
such Guarantors have jointly and severally, guaranteed Copley's personal
liability for the matters set forth in Section 10(b) clauses (i) to (v)
inclusive and under the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement, and all costs incurred by
Holder in connection with the recovery of any amounts from Guarantors under the
Guaranty.  In the event that (x) JMB transfers its interest in Copley to Urban
Shopping Centers, L.P. ("Urban") in accordance with the Loan Documents, and (y)
Urban delivers to Holder a guaranty, in form, scope and substance substantially
similar to the Guaranty, Holder shall release JMB of its liability under the
Guaranty with respect to matters arising after the date of such delivery.

          (d) Copley's obligations arising in connection with the matters set
forth in clauses (b)(i) through (v), above, and under the Unsecured Indemnity
Agreement, are sometimes referred to herein and in the other Loan Documents as
the "Recourse Obligations".

delay or omission in the exercise by Holder, of any right or remedy under the
Loan Documents shall preclude, waive or limit any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  Holder shall at all times
have the right to proceed against any portion of, or interest in, the Property
in such manner as Holder may deem fit, without waiving any other rights or
remedies with respect to the Property, any portion thereof, or interest therein.
The release of any party under this Note shall not operate to release any other
party liable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

          13.  Fees and Expenses.  If this Note is placed in the hands of an

reasonable sum as an attorney's fee.

          14.  No Modifications.  This Note may not be changed, amended or

include the respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns
of each, and shall denote the singular and/or plural, and the masculine and/or
feminine, and natural and/or artificial persons, whenever and wherever the
context so requires.  Whenever the term "Maker" is used herein, it shall be
deemed to refer to each Maker individually as well as to both Makers

          TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Property, for the benefit of Mortgagee, its
successors and assigns, subject, however, to the terms, covenants and conditions
contained herein.

          PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if Mortgagor shall pay or cause to be paid to
Mortgagee in full the Secured Indebtedness, at the times and in the manner
stipulated in the Loan Documents, and shall keep, perform and observe all and
singular the covenants and promises of Mortgagor in the Loan Documents, then
this Mortgage and all the properties, interests and rights hereby granted,
encumbered, transferred or assigned shall be released by Mortgagee in accordance
with the laws of the State.

          MORTGAGOR HEREBY COVENANTS AND AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF MORTGAGEE AS
FOLLOWS:

          ARTICLE I - COVENANTS

          1.01  PERFORMANCE BY MORTGAGOR.  Mortgagor shall pay the Secured
Indebtedness to Mortgagee and shall keep and perform each and every other
obligation, covenant and agreement of the Loan Documents (subject to applicable
notice and grace provisions, if any, in the Loan Documents).

          1.02  WARRANTY OF TITLE.  Each Mortgagor warrants that it owns its
respective tenant's interests in the Ground Leases as set forth in Exhibits A-1,
A-2, A-3 and A-4, and that it has good right and is lawfully authorized to
transfer all of its right, title and interest in, and to encumber the Property,
subject only to those matters set forth in Exhibit "C" attached hereto and made
a part hereof (the "Permitted Exceptions"). Mortgagor further covenants to
warrant and forever defend all and singular the Property unto Mortgagee forever
from and against all persons whomsoever claiming the same or any part thereof.

          1.03  TAXES, LIENS AND OTHER CHARGES.  Unless sums sufficient to pay
the same shall have been fully paid to Mortgagee as provided in Section 1.06
hereof, Mortgagor shall pay or cause to be paid all real estate and other taxes,
assessments, water and sewer charges, vault and other license or permit fees,
levies, fines, penalties, interest, impositions, and other similar claims,
general and special, public and private, of any kind whatsoever which may be
assessed, levied, confirmed, imposed upon or arise out of or become due and
payable out of, or become a lien on or against the Property or any part thereof
(all of the foregoing, together with utility and refuse removal charges, being
hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Imposition(s)") not later than
thirty (30) days before

                                      -6-
<PAGE>
 
the dates on which such Impositions would become delinquent.  Not later than the
date when any Impositions would become delinquent, Mortgagor shall produce to
Mortgagee evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee evidencing the payment
thereof in full.  If Mortgagor shall in good faith, and by proper legal action,
contest any Impositions, and shall have deposited cash with Mortgagee (or as
Mortgagee may direct) as a reserve for the payment thereof plus all fines,
interest, penalties and costs which may become due pending the determination of
such contest, in such amount as Mortgagee may require, then Mortgagor shall not
be required to pay the same during the maintenance of said deposit and as long
as such contest operates to prevent enforcement or collection of such
Impositions against, or the sale or forfeiture of, the Property for non-payment
thereof, and is prosecuted with due diligence and continuity, and shall not have
been terminated or discontinued adversely to Mortgagor.  Upon termination of any
such proceeding or contest, Mortgagor shall pay the amount of such Impositions
or part thereof as finally determined in such proceeding or contest.  However,
if monies have been deposited with Mortgagee pursuant to this Section 1.03, said
funds shall be applied toward such payment and the excess, if any, shall be
returned to Mortgagor.

          1.04  FURTHER TAXES.  In the event of the passage, after the date of
this Mortgage, of any law deducting from the value of the Property, for the
purposes of taxation, any lien thereon or security interest therein, or changing
in any way the laws now in force for the taxation of mortgages, deeds of trust
and/or security agreements or debts secured by mortgages, deeds of trust and/or
security agreements, or the manner of the collection of any such taxes, which
has the effect of imposing payment of the whole or any portion of any taxes,
assessments or other similar charges against the Property upon Mortgagee, the
Secured Indebtedness shall become due and payable at the option of Mortgagee
upon ninety (90) days written notice to Mortgagor; provided, however, that such
election by Mortgagee shall be ineffective if prior to the elapse of such 90-day
period: (1) Mortgagor is permitted by law (including, without limitation,
applicable interest rate laws) to, and actually does, pay such tax or the
increased portion thereof (in addition to continuing to pay the Secured
Indebtedness as and when due and payable); and (2) Mortgagor agrees with
Mortgagee in writing to pay, or reimburse Mortgagee for the payment of, any such
tax or increased portion thereof when thereafter levied or assessed against the
Property or any portion thereof.  Any money paid by Mortgagee under this Section
1.04 shall be reimbursed to Mortgagee in accordance with Section 3.10 hereof.
If the Loan is accelerated pursuant to this Section 1.04 Note Prepayment Fee
shall be payable in connection therewith.

          1.05  INSURANCE.

          (a)    Mortgagor, at its sole cost and expense, shall at all times,
unless otherwise indicated, provide, maintain and keep in force:

                       (1)   property insurance covering the Improvements and
Personal Property against loss or damage from such causes of loss as are
embraced by insurance policies of the type now known as "All Risks" or "Open
Perils" property insurance on a replacement cost basis with an Agreed Value
Endorsement waiving co-insurance and including

                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 
contingent liability from operation of Building Laws, all in an amount not less
than one hundred percent (100%) of the then full replacement cost of the
Improvements (exclusive of the cost of excavations, foundations. underground
utilities and footings below the lowest basement floor) and Personal Property,
without deduction for physical depreciation thereof.  Such insurance shall
provide for no deductible in excess of $10,000, except for a $25,000 deductible
for flood and earthquake.  In addition, such property insurance shall include a
Demolition and.  Increased Cost of Construction Endorsement and a Replacement
Cost Endorsement as well as such other insurance as Mortgagee may from time to
time designate to cover other risks and hazards affecting the Property.  If the
Improvements or the use of the Property shall constitute non-conforming
structures or uses, an "Ordinance or Law Coverage" endorsement shall be
required.  Full replacement cost shall be determined from time to time by an
appraiser or contractor designated and paid by Mortgagor and reasonably approved
by Mortgagee, or by an engineer or appraiser in the regular employ of the
insurer;

                       (2)   business income insurance insuring against loss of
business or rental income of the Property, in an amount sufficient to prevent
Mortgagor from becoming a co-insurer within the terms of the applicable
policies, and sufficient to recover one year's "business income" for the
Property. The current estimate of one year's "business income" for the Property
is $45,,000,000. "Business income" as used herein is defined as the sum of (i)
the total anticipated gross income from occupancy of the Property, (ii) the
amount of all charges (such as, but not limited to, operating expenses,
insurance premiums and taxes) which are the obligation of tenants or occupants
to Mortgagor pursuant to leases or other occupancy agreements, except to the
extent included in (i) above, (iii) the fair market rental value of any portion
of the Property which is occupied by Mortgagor,, and (iv) any other amounts
payable to Mortgagor or any affiliate of Mortgagor pursuant to leases or other
occupancy agreements;

                       (3)   flood insurance meeting the requirements of the
current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration with a generally
acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount equal to the lesser of the
outstanding principal balance of the Notes, or the maximum amount of insurance
which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of
1994, as amended.

                       (4)   boiler and machinery insurance insuring against
loss or damage to the Property and to the major components of any central
heating, air conditioning or other ventilation systems, boilers, other pressure
vessels, high pressure piping and machinery, elevators and escalators, if any,
and/or such other similar machinery or equipment as may be now or hereafter
installed in the Improvements, in an amount equal to 100% of the full
replacement cost of all equipment installed at the Improvements. These policies
shall insure against physical damage to and loss of occupancy and use of the
Improvements arising out of a covered accident or breakdown;

                       (5)   upon the request of Mortgagee, builder's risk
insurance insuring against loss of damage from such causes of loss as are
embraced by insurance policies of the type now known as "Builder's Risks"
property insurance (written on an "all risk" or "open

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 
perils" basis), including, without limitation, fire and extended coverage and
collapse of the improvements coverage to agreed limits, all in form and
substance acceptable to Mortgagee and (i) as to property then subject to
Restoration (as defined in Section 1.07(b)) or any restoration accomplished in
connection with a Condemnation, in an amount not less than the full replacement
cost of such property and (ii) as to any additional improvements then being
constructed, in an amount not less than the completed value on a nonreporting
form, of the additional improvements then being constructed; provided, however,
that such insurance in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall be required only during
any period of Restoration or any restoration accomplished in connection with a
Condemnation or any period of construction of any additional improvements;

                       (6)   general liability insurance insuring against claims
for personal injury (including, without limitation, bodily injury or death),
property damage liability and such other loss or damage from such causes of loss
as are embraced by insurance policies of the type now known as "Commercial
General Liability" insurance. Such insurance coverage shall be issued and
maintained on an "occurrence" basis with a combined single limit of not less
than $25,000,000, such limit being subject to change by Mortgagee in writing by
reason of changed economic conditions making this protection inadequate. Such
provisions shall cover at least the following hazards: premises and operations,
products and completed operations on an "if any" basis, independent contractors,
blanket contractual liability for all written and oral contracts, and
contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in this Mortgage and
the other Loan Documents to the extent available;

                       (7)   worker's compensation insurance, subject to the
statutory limits of the State, and employer's liability insurance with a limit
of at least $1,000,000 per accident and per disease per employee, and $1,000,000
for disease aggregate in respect of any award or operations on or about the
Property, or in connection with the Property or its operations (if applicable);
and

                       (8)   such other insurance and in such amounts, as may,
from time to time, be reasonably required by Mortgagee against other insurable
hazards or risks, including, but not limited to, environmental impairment
liability coverage, nuclear reaction or radioactive contamination coverage,
vandalism, sinkhole and mine subsidence and/or earthquake coverage, which
hazards or risks at the time are commonly insured against, and provided such
insurance is generally available, for property similarly situated in the Boston,
Massachusetts area and Mortgagee is customarily requiring such insurance for
similar properties (unless different circumstances warrant different treatment
of the Property), due regard being given to the height and type of building, its
construction, use and occupancy.

                 (b)   Except as herein expressly provided otherwise, all
policies of insurance required under this Section 1.05 shall be issued by
companies, and be in form, amount, and content and have an expiration date,
approved by Mortgagee and as to the policies of insurance required under
subparagraphs (1), (3) and (6) of Section 1.05(a), shall contain a Standard
NonContributory Mortgagee Clause or Lender's Loss Payable Endorsement, or
equivalents thereof, in form, scope and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee, in
favor of Mortgagee and/or

                                      -9-
<PAGE>
 
its successors and assigns, and as to policies of insurance required under
subparagraphs (1), (2), (4), (5) and (6) of Section 1.05(a), shall provide that
the proceeds thereof ("Insurance Proceeds") shall be payable to Mortgagee.  Any
Insurance Proceeds received by Mortgagee pursuant to Section 1.05(a)(2) shall be
held and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of that portion of the Secured
Indebtedness then due and payable, or which will become due and payable for the
period for which such Insurance Proceeds are received by Mortgagee and the
remainder, if any, shall be paid to Mortgagor.  Except for claims of Five
Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) or less (which Mortgagor shall
have the right to settle without involvement of Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall not
settle, adjust or compromise any other claims for loss, damage or destruction to
the Property, regardless of whether there are Insurance Proceeds available or
whether any such proceeds are sufficient in amount to fully compensate for such
loss or damage without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, which Mortgagee
may withhold in its reasonable discretion.  Mortgagee shall be furnished with
the original or certified copy of each policy required hereunder together with
certificates of insurance satisfactory to Mortgagee, which policy or certificate
shall provide that it shall not be modified or canceled without ten (10) days'
prior written notice to Mortgagee.  At least thirty (30) days prior to
expiration of any policy required hereunder, Mortgagor shall furnish Mortgagee
appropriate proof of issuance of a policy continuing in force the insurance
covered by the policy so expiring.  Not later than thirty (30) days before the
dates on which any insurance provisions would become delinquent, Mortgagor shall
furnish Mortgagee receipts for the payment of premiums on such insurance
policies or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee
in the event that such premiums have not been paid to Mortgagee pursuant to
Section 1.06 hereof.  In the event that Mortgagor does not deposit with
Mortgagee a new policy of insurance (or certified copy thereof) with evidence of
payment of premiums thereon at least two (2) business days prior to the
expiration of any policy, then Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to,
procure such insurance and pay the premiums therefor and any money paid by
Mortgagee for such premiums shall be reimbursed to Mortgagee in accordance with
Section 3. 10 hereof.

                 (c)   In the event of the foreclosure of this Mortgage or other
transfer of the title to the Property in extinguishment, in whole or in part, of
the Secured Indebtedness, all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to
any insurance policy (to the extent assignable) or Premium (as hereinafter
defined) or payments in satisfaction of claims or any other rights thereunder
then in force, shall pass to the purchaser or grantee. Nothing contained herein
shall prevent accrual of interest as provided in the Note on any portion of the
Secured Indebtedness to which the Insurance Proceeds are to be applied until
such time as the Insurance Proceeds are actually received by Mortgagee and
applied by Mortgagee to reduce the Secured Indebtedness.

                 (d)   All insurance companies issuing the insurance policies
required herein must be authorized to do business in New York State and in the
State and must be approved by Mortgagee in its reasonable discretion. Such
insurance companies must have a general policy rating of A or better and a
financial class of X or better by A.M. Best Company, Inc. and a claims paying
ability of BBB or better according to Standard & Poor's (as hereinafter
defined). If there are any "Securities" (as defined in Section 3.16) issued
which have been assigned a

                                      -10-
<PAGE>
 
rating by a Rating Agency (as defined in Section 3.16), the insurance company
shall have a claims paying ability rating by such Rating Agency equal to or
greater than the rating of the highest class of the Securities.

          1.06  ESCROW DEPOSITS.  Without limiting the effect of Sections 1.03,
 1.04  and 1.05 hereof, Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee monthly on the Payment
 Date (as defined in the Notes), an amount equal to 1/12th of what Mortgagee
 estimates is necessary to pay, on an annualized basis, all (1) Impositions and
 (2) premiums for the insurance policies required under Section 1.05(a) hereof
 ("Premiums") to enable Mortgagee to pay same at least thirty (30) days before
 the Impositions would become delinquent and the Premiums are due, and, on
 demand, from time to time shall pay to Mortgagee additional sums necessary to
 pay the Premiums and Impositions.  No amounts so paid shall be deemed to be
 trust funds, but may be commingled with the general funds of Mortgagee, and no
 interest shall be payable thereon (unless such deposits are required by a
 Rating Agency in connection with a Securitization (as defined in Section 3.16)
 and no Event of Default has occurred, in which event interest shall be payable
 thereon at a rate equal to the short-term AAA rated money-market fund at the
 depository institution reasonably selected by Mortgagee. In the event that
 Mortgagor does not pay such sums for Premiums and Impositions, then Mortgagee
 may, but shall not be obligated to, pay such Premiums and Impositions and any
 money so paid by Mortgagee shall be reimbursed to Mortgagee in accordance with
 Section 3. 10 hereof.  If an Event of Default occurs, Mortgagee shall have the
 right, at its election, to apply any amounts so held under this Section 1.06
 against all or any part of the Secured Indebtedness, or in payment of the
 Premiums or Impositions for which the amounts were deposited.  Mortgagor will
 furnish to Mortgagee bills for Impositions and Premiums thirty (30) days before
 Impositions become delinquent and such Premiums become due.  Notwithstanding
 the foregoing, if, in connection with a Securitization, Mortgagee is notified
 that such escrow deposits are no longer required or if there ceases to be a
 Securitization, Mortgagee will not require such escrow deposits unless and
 until (i) an Event of Default occurs or (ii) with respect to Premiums,
 Mortgagor fails to furnish to Mortgagee, not later than two (2) business days
 before the dates on which any Premiums would become delinquent, receipts for
 the payment of such Premiums or appropriate proof of issuance of a new policy
 which continues in force the insurance coverage of the expiring policy.

          1.07  RESTORATION.

          (a)   After the happening of any casualty to the Property, whether or
not required to be insured against under the insurance policies to be provided
by Mortgagor hereunder, Mortgagor shall give prompt written notice thereof to
Mortgagee generally describing the nature and cause of such casualty and the
extent of the damage to or destruction of the Property.

          (b)   Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee all Insurance Proceeds
which Mortgagor may be entitled to receive. In the event of any damage to or
destruction of the Property, and provided (1) a Default (as defined in Exhibit
"D" annexed hereto and made a part hereof) or an Event of Default does not
currently exist, and (2) Mortgagee has determined

                                      -11-
<PAGE>
 
that (i) its security has not been materially impaired, and (ii) the repair,
restoration and rebuilding of any portion of the Property that has been
partially damaged or destroyed can be accomplished within twelve (12) months
from the date of such damage or destruction in full compliance with all
Requirements for Restoration (as defined in Exhibit "E") to the same condition,
character and general utility as nearly as possible to that existing prior to
such damage or destruction and at least equal value as that existing prior to
such damage or destruction (the "Restoration"), then Mortgagor shall commence
and diligently pursue to completion the Restoration.  Mortgagee shall hold and
disburse the Insurance Proceeds less (x) the reasonable cost, if any, to
Mortgagee of recovering such proceeds including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees and expenses, adjusters' fees and fees incurred in Mortgagee's performance
of its obligations hereunder, and (y) any insurance proceeds received by
Mortgagee pursuant to Section 1.05(a)(2) (the "Net Insurance Proceeds") in the
manner hereinafter provided, to the Restoration.  In the event that the above
conditions for Restoration have not been met, Mortgagee may, at its option.
apply the Net Insurance Proceeds to the reduction of the Secured Indebtedness in
such order as Mortgagee may determine and Mortgagee may declare the entire
Secured Indebtedness immediately due and payable.

          (c)   In the event the Net Insurance Proceeds are to be used for the
Restoration, Mortgagor shall comply with Mortgagee's Requirements For
Restoration as set forth in Exhibit "E" attached hereto and made a part hereof.
Upon Mortgagee's receipt of a final certificate of occupancy or other evidence
of approval of appropriate governmental authorities for the use and occupancy of
the Improvements and other evidence requested by Mortgagee that the Restoration
has been completed and the costs thereof have been paid in full, and
satisfactory evidence that no mechanic's or similar liens for labor or material
supplied in connection with the Restoration are outstanding against the Property
and provided that an Event of Default does not currently exist, Mortgagee shall
pay any remaining Restoration Funds (as defined in Exhibit "E") then held by
Mortgagee to Mortgagor; provided, however, nothing contained herein shall
prevent Mortgagee from applying at any time the whole or any part of the
Restoration Funds to the curing of any Event of Default.

          (d)   In the event that Mortgagee applies all or any portion of the
Restoration Funds to repay the unpaid Secured Indebtedness as provided in this
Section 1.07, after payment in full of the Secured Indebtedness, any remaining
Restoration Funds shall be paid to Mortgagor.

          1.08  CONDEMNATION.  Should the Property or any part thereof be taken
by reason of any condemnation or similar eminent domain proceeding, or a grant
or conveyance in lieu thereof ("Condemnation"), Mortgagee shall be entitled to
all compensation, awards and other payments or relief therefor, and shall have
the option (but not the obligation), upon written notice to Mortgagor, to
commence, appear in and prosecute in its own name any action or proceeding or to
make any compromise or settlement in connection with such Condemnation.  In
connection with the election of any such option by Mortgagee, Mortgagor hereby
irrevocably constitutes and appoints Mortgagee as its attorney-in-fact upon an
Event of Default, and such appointment is coupled with an interest, to commence,
appear in and prosecute any action or proceeding or to make any compromise or
settlement in

                                      -12-
<PAGE>
 
connection with any such Condemnation.  All such compensation, awards, damages,
rights of action and proceeds (collectively, the "Condemnation Proceeds") are
hereby assigned to Mortgagee, who shall, after deducting therefrom all its
reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees ("Condemnation Expenses"), apply
the remaining Condemnation Proceeds to repair any damage to, and to restore the
Improvements remaining on the portion of, the Property not taken (such repair
and restoration to be performed by Mortgagor) in the manner provided in Section
1.07 with respect to disposition of Net Insurance Proceeds; provided, however,
that at the time of application of the remaining Condemnation Proceeds: (1)
there shall not exist any Default or Event of Default; (2) Mortgagor shall have
paid to Mortgagee all sums in excess of available Condemnation Proceeds
necessary to repair any damage to and restore the Improvements remaining on the
portion of the Property not taken; and (3) Mortgagee shall have determined that
its security is not impaired and that such repair and restoration can be
accomplished within twelve (12) months from the date of taking.  After
restoration of the remaining Improvements, or in the event the conditions
precedent for such restoration are not met, Mortgagee shall have the right,
after deducting therefrom the Condemnation Expenses, to apply the balance of the
Condemnation Proceeds to the Secured Indebtedness, in such manner and such order
as Mortgagee in its sole discretion shall determine, without adjustment in the
dollar amount of the installments due under the Note.  Nothing contained herein
shall prevent the accrual of interest as provided in the Note on any portion of
the Secured Indebtedness to which the Condemnation Proceeds are to be applied
until such Condemnation Proceeds are actually received by Mortgagee and so
applied to reduce the Secured Indebtedness.

          1.09  CARE AND USE OF THE PROPERTY.

          (a)   Mortgagor, at its sole cost and expense, shall keep the Property
in good order, condition, and repair, and make all necessary repairs thereto,
interior and exterior, structural and non-structural, ordinary and
extraordinary, and foreseen and unforeseen.  Mortgagor shall abstain from, and
not permit, the commission of waste in or about the Property and shall not
remove or demolish, or alter in any substantial manner, the structure or
character of any Improvements without the prior written consent of Mortgagee.

          (b)   Mortgagor shall at all times comply with all present or future
Requirements (as defined in Exhibit "D") affecting or relating or pertaining in
any way to the Property and/or the use, operation and/or the maintenance
thereof, and shall furnish Mortgagee, on request, proof of such compliance.
Mortgagor shall not use or permit the use of the Property, or any part thereof,
for any illegal purpose.

          (c)   Mortgagee and Mortgagee's representatives and designees shall
have the right, but not the duty, to enter the Property at reasonable times to
inspect the same. Mortgagee shall not be liable to Mortgagor or any person in
possession of the Property with respect to any matter arising out of such entry
to the Property except for any matter resulting from Mortgagee's, or its agents'
or designees', gross negligence or willful disregard of its obligations
hereunder.

                                      -13-
<PAGE>
 
          (d)   Mortgagor shall, from time to time, if and when required by
Mortgagee (1) perform a site investigation of the Property to determine the
existence and levels of Hazardous Substances (as defined in Exhibit "D") on the
Property, (2) issue a report certifying the. results of such inspection to
Mortgagee, and (3) take such remedial action as may be required to bring the
Property into compliance with applicable law; provided, however, that unless any
Event of Default shall have occurred or there are reasonable grounds to suspect
environmental harm, Mortgagor shall not be required to undertake a site
investigation. The foregoing proviso shall not, however, limit in any way
Mortgagee's right to enter upon the Property at all reasonable times and upon
reasonable prior notice to undertake site investigations of the Property at
Mortgagee's expense.

          (e)   Mortgagor shall use, or cause to be used, the Property
continuously as and for a first class, upscale, mixed use, office/ retail
complex.  Mortgagor shall not use, or permit the use of, the Property for any
other use without the prior written consent of Mortgagee.  Mortgagor shall at no
time file or record a Declaration of Condominium, Master Deed of Trust or any
other similar document evidencing the imposition of a so-called "condominium
regime" whether superior or subordinate to this Mortgage.  Mortgagor shall at no
time permit any part of the Property to be converted to, or operated as, a so-
called "cooperative apartment house" (or on a like cooperative basis) whereby
the tenants or occupants thereof participate in the ownership, management or
control of any part of the Property, as tenants, stockholders or otherwise.

          (f)   Mortgagor shall not initiate or acquiesce in a change in the
zoning classification of and/or restrictive covenants affecting the Property or
seek any variance under existing zoning ordinances applicable to the Property or
use or permit the use of the Property in such a manner which would result in
such use becoming a non-conforming use under applicable zoning ordinances or
other applicable laws, ordinances, rules or regulations or subject the Property
to restrictive covenants without Mortgagee's prior written consent, which
consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

          1. 10 LEASES AND OTHER AGREEMENTS AFFECTING THE PROPERTY.

          (a)   In order to further secure payment of the Secured-Indebtedness
and the observance, performance and discharge of Mortgagor's obligations under
the Loan Documents, Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee all of Mortgagor's
right, title, interest and estate in, to and under all of the leases, subleases
and other occupancy agreements (collectively, the "Leases") now or hereafter
affecting the Property or any part thereof and in and to all of the Rents and
Profits (as defined in Exhibit "D").  Unless and until an Event of Default
occurs, Mortgagor shall be entitled to collect the Rents and Profits as and when
they become due and payable.  Mortgagee shall be liable to account only for the
Rents and Profits actually received by Mortgagee pursuant to any provision of
any Loan Document.

          (b)   Mortgagor shall duly and punctually perform in all material
respects all terms, covenants, conditions and agreements binding upon it or the
Property under any

                                      -14-
<PAGE>
 
agreement or instrument of any nature whatsoever which involves or affects the
Property or any part thereof , including, without limitation, the Management
Agreements and the Ground Leases.  Mortgagor represents that it has heretofore
furnished Mortgagee true and complete copies of all executed Leases existing on
the date of this Mortgage.  Upon request of Mortgagee, Mortgagor agrees to
furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of all Leases hereafter entered into with
respect to all or any part of the Property.

          (c) Mortgagor shall not, without the express written consent of
Mortgagee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, enter into any new
Lease or modify, extend or renew, either orally or in writing, any Lease now
existing or hereafter created upon the Property, or any part thereof, unless
such new Lease or amendment, extension or renewal shall be in compliance with
the Leasing Guidelines (as defined in Exhibit "D").  Mortgagor shall not,
without the express written consent of Mortgagee, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, terminate or surrender any Lease now existing or
hereafter created upon the Property, or any part thereof, unless (a) tenant is
in material default under the Lease, or (b) Mortgagor has entered into a new
Lease covering all of the leased premises to be terminated or surrendered, which
new Lease shall either have been approved by Mortgagee as provided herein, or
shall be in compliance with the Leasing Guidelines.  Mortgagor shall not permit
an assignment or sublease of any Lease now existing or hereafter created upon
the Property, or any part thereof, without the express written consent of
Mortgagee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld unless such Lease
shall be in compliance with the Leasing Guidelines.

          (d) Each Lease of any portion of the Property hereinafter entered into
shall be absolutely subordinate to the lien of this Mortgage, but shall also
contain a provision, satisfactory to Mortgagee, that in the event of the
exercise of the power of sale hereunder or a sale pursuant to a judgment of
foreclosure, such Lease, at the sole and exclusive option of the purchaser at
such sale, shall not be terminated and the tenant thereunder shall atone to such
purchaser and, if requested to do so, shall enter into a new Lease for the
balance of the term of such Lease then remaining, upon the same terms and
conditions.  If Mortgagee so requests, Mortgagor shall cause the tenant under
each or any of such Leases to enter into subordination, non-disturbance and
attornment agreements with Mortgagee substantially in the form annexed as
Exhibit F.

          (e) Mortgagor shall not accept payment of advance rents or security
deposits equal, in the aggregate, to more than one (1) month's rent.

          (f) Mortgagee shall provide a subordination, non-disturbance and
attornment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit F. to any tenant under
a Lease hereafter executed, if requested by such tenant, provided that such
Lease shall comply with the Leasing Guidelines.  Any tenant to whom such non-
disturbance is granted shall execute a subordination, non-disturbance and
attornment agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 'F".
In addition, Mortgagee agrees that, as to any Leases existing on the date
hereof, if requested by the tenant thereunder, Mortgagee will enter into a
subordination
<PAGE>
 
non-disturbance and attornment agreement substantially. in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit "F", provided that such Lease requires such an agreement as a
condition to subordination.

          (g)   Mortgagor covenants and agrees that all contracts and agreements
relating to the Property to pay leasing commissions, management fees or other
compensation shall (1) provide that the obligation to pay such commissions, fees
and other compensation will not be enforceable against any party other than the
party who entered into such agreement; (2) be subordinate and inferior to the
lien of this Mortgage; and (3) not be enforceable against Mortgagee.  Mortgagor
shall promptly furnish Mortgagee with evidence of Mortgagor's compliance with
this paragraph upon the execution of each such contract or agreement.

          1.11  BOOKS, RECORDS AND ACCOUNTS. (a) Mortgagor shall keep and
maintain or shall cause to be kept and maintained on a calendar year basis, in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied,
proper and accurate books, records and accounts reflecting all of the financial
affairs of Mortgagor with respect to all items of income and expense in
connection with the operation of the Property, whether such income or expense be
realized by Mortgagor or by any other person whatsoever (excepting lessees
unrelated to and unaffiliated with Mortgagor who have leased from Mortgagor
portions of the Property for the purpose of occupying same).  Mortgagee or its
representatives or designees shall have the right from time to time at all times
during normal business hours to examine, with respect to the Property, such
books, records and accounts at the office of Mortgagor or other person
maintaining such books, records and accounts and to make copies or extracts
thereof as Mortgagee shall desire.  Mortgagee and the Rating Agencies shall also
have the right to discuss Mortgagor's affairs, finances and accounts with
representatives of Mortgagor, at such reasonable times as may be requested by
Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall deliver (1) to Mortgagee (with a copy to the Rating
Agencies) within one hundred twenty (120) calendar year, audited financial

accounting principles, consistently applied, containing a balance sheet, profit

expenditures) with such detailed supporting schedules covering the operation of
the Property as Mortgagee shall require and certified by the managers, if the
Mortgagor is a limited liability company, by the chief financial officer of
Mortgagor, if Mortgagor is a corporation, by a general partner of Mortgagor, if
Mortgagor is a partnership, or by Mortgagor, if Mortgagor is an individual and

and certified by the managing member, managing general partner or chief
financial officer, as applicable, of Mortgagee, containing the same information
and schedules as required in clause (i) above but only for such preceding
calendar quarter.  To the extent requested by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall also
furnish a current rent roll identifying all tenants at the Real Property and the
principal business terms of their respective Leases.

          (b)   Mortgagor will, reasonably promptly after written request by
Mortgagee or any Rating Agency, furnish or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee,
in such manner and detail as may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee, such
reasonable additional information as may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee
with respect to the Property.

          1.12  SUBROGATION.  As additional security hereunder, Mortgagee shall
be subrogated to the lien, although released of record, of any and all
encumbrances paid out of the proceeds of the loan evidenced by the Notes (the
"Loan") and secured by this Mortgage and Mortgagee, upon making such payment,
shall be subrogated to all of the rights of the person, corporation or body
politic receiving such payment.

          1.13  COLLATERAL SECURITY INSTRUMENTS.  Mortgagor covenants and
agrees that if Mortgagee at any time holds additional security for any
obligations secured hereby, it may enforce the terms thereof or otherwise
realize upon the same, at its option, either before or concurrently herewith or
after a sale is made hereunder, and may apply the proceeds to the Secured
Indebtedness in such order as Mortgagee may determine, without affecting the
status of or waiving any right to exhaust all or any other security, including
the security hereunder, and without waiving any breach or default or any right
or power whether exercised hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents,
or contained herein or therein, or in any such other security.

          1.14  SUITS AND OTHER ACTS TO PROTECT THE PROPERTY.

          (a)   Mortgagor covenants and agrees to appear in and defend any
action or proceeding purporting to affect the Property, any other security
afforded by any of the Loan Documents and/or the interest of Mortgagee
thereunder. Mortgagor shall immediately notify Mortgagee of the commencement, or
receipt of notice, of any such action or proceeding or other matter or claim
purporting to affect the Property in any material respect or purporting to
affect any other security afforded by any of the Loan Documents and/or the
interest of Mortgagee thereunder.

          (b)   Mortgagee shall have the right, at the cost and expense of
Mortgagor, to institute and maintain such suits and proceedings and take such
other action, as it may deem expedient to preserve or protect the Property
during the continuance of an Event of Default, and at any time with respect to
any other security afforded by any of the Loan Documents and/or Mortgagee's
interest therein.  Any reasonable sums (including reasonable attorneys fees and
disbursements) so expended by Mortgagee under this Section 1.14(b) shall be
reimbursed to Mortgagee in accordance with Section 3.10 hereof.

                                     -17-

<PAGE>
 
          1.15 MORTGAGEE'S RIGHT TO PERFORM MORTGAGOR'S OBLIGATIONS. Mortgagor
agrees that, if Mortgagor fails to perform any act or to pay any money which
Mortgagor is required to perform or pay under the Loan Documents, Mortgagee, at
the reasonable cost and expense of Mortgagor and in Mortgagor's name or in its
own name, may, after the expiration of the applicable notice and cure period,
(but shall not be obligated to) perform or cause to be performed such act or
take such action or pay any money; provided that Mortgagee first gives Mortgagor
at least five (5) days advance written notice of the intent of Mortgagee to
undertake the foregoing action or payment (unless an emergency situation
requires more immediate action or payment, in which case no prior notice need be
given). All reasonable sums (including reasonable attorneys fees) paid by
Mortgagee under this Section 1.15 shall be reimbursed to Mortgagee in
accordance with Section 3.10 hereof.

          1.16  LIENS AND ENCUMBRANCES.

          (a)   Subject to Mortgagor's right to contest otherwise specifically
set forth herein, Mortgagor shall not, without the prior written consent of
Mortgagee, create, place or suffer to be created or placed, or through any act
or failure to act, allow to remain, any deed of trust, mortgage, security
interest, or other lien, encumbrance or charge, or conditional sale or other
title retention document, against or covering the Property, or any part thereof
(a "Lien"), other than the Permitted Exceptions and the lien for ad valorem
taxes on the Property not yet delinquent, regardless of whether the same are
expressly or otherwise subordinate to the lien or security interest created in
this Mortgage, and should any of the foregoing become attached hereafter in any
manner to any part of the Property, Mortgagor shall cause the same to be
promptly discharged, released or bonded over (in a manner reasonably
satisfactory to Mortgagee). Except for leased equipment, Mortgagor shall own all
parts of the Property and, except for substitutions or replacements of
equivalent value acquired in the ordinary course of business, or otherwise as
expressly approved in writing by Mortgagee, shall not acquire any fixtures,
equipment or other property forming a part of the Property pursuant to a lease,
license, title retention document or similar agreement.

          (b)   Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require Mortgagor to
pay, or cause to be paid, or to satisfy any mechanic's lien, so long as
Mortgagor is in good faith, and by proper legal proceedings, where appropriate,
diligently contesting the validity, amount or application thereof, provided that
in each case, at the time of the commencement of any such action or proceeding,
and during the pendency of such action or proceeding (i) no Event of Default
shall exist and be continuing hereunder, (ii) Mortgagor shall keep Mortgagee
apprised of the status of such contest; (iii) such contest operates to suspend
collection or enforcement as the case may be, of the contested Imposition or
Lien and such contest is maintained and prosecuted continuously and with
diligence or the mechanic's lien is bonded, (iv) and (v) Mortgagor shall provide
security in the form of a bond or other security reasonably acceptable to
Mortgagee, an amount requested by Mortgagee, but in no event less than 125% of
(A) the amount of Mortgagor's obligations being contested plus (B) any
additional interest, charge, or penalty arising from such contest.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the creation of any such reserves or the
furnishing of any bond or other security, Mortgagor promptly shall pay any
contested mechanic's lien, and payment thereof shall not be

                                     -18-
<PAGE>
 
deferred, if, at any time the Property or any portion thereof shall be, in
Mortgagee's reasonable judgment, in imminent danger of being forfeited or lost
or Mortgagee is likely to be subject to civil or criminal damages as a result
thereof.  If such action or proceeding is terminated or discontinued adversely
to Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee reasonable evidence of
Mortgagor's compliance with such contested mechanic's lien.

          1.17  LIABILITY OF MORTGAGOR. (a) Except for the personal liability
and guaranty obligations set forth in the Guaranty (as hereinafter defined) and
as expressly set forth in this Section 1. 17, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, , but
without in any manner releasing, impairing or otherwise affecting this Mortgage
or any of the other Loan Documents, or the validity hereof or thereof, or the
lien of this Mortgage, neither Mortgagor, nor any present or future "Constituent
Member" (as hereinafter defined) in or agent of Mortgagor nor any present or
future shareholder, partner, member, officer, director, employee, trustee,
affiliate, beneficiary, advisor, principal, participant or agent of or in any
corporation, trust or other entity that is or becomes a Constituent Member in
Mortgagor, shall have any personal liability, directly or indirectly, under or
in connection with the Loan Documents or any other instrument or certificate
executed in connection with the Loan or the Loan Documents or any amendment(s)
or modification(s) to any of the foregoing made at any time or times, heretofore
or hereafter; the recourse of Mortgagee, and its successors and assigns, under
or in connection with the Loan, the Loan Documents and such instruments,
certificates, amendment(s) and modification(s), shall be limited to the Property
only, and Mortgagee, on its own behalf and on behalf of its successors and
assigns and any other party, hereby waives any such personal liability.  A
"Constituent Member' in Mortgagor shall mean any person or entity that is a
partner in or member of Mortgagor, or any person or entity that, directly or
indirectly through one or more limited liability companies or partnerships, is a
partner in or member of Mortgagor.  For purposes of the Loan Documents and such
instruments and certificates, and any such amendment(s) or modification(s)
thereto, neither the negative capital account of any Constituent Member in
Mortgagor, nor any obligation of any Constituent Member in Mortgagor, to restore
a negative capital account or to contribute or advance capital to Mortgagor or
to any other Constituent Member in Mortgagor shall at any time be deemed to be
the property or an asset of Mortgagor or any such other Constituent Member (and
neither Mortgagee nor any of its successors and assigns shall have any right to
collect, enforce or proceed against or with respect to any such negative capital
account or such Constituent Member's obligation to restore, contribute or
advance capital to the applicable limited liability company or partnership).

          (b)   Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing contained in this
Section 1.17 shall be deemed to prejudice the right of Mortgagee following
foreclosure or a deed-in lieu of foreclosure to (i) recover actual damages
against Copley for fraud, intentional material misrepresentation or intentional
waste; and/or (ii) recover any condemnation proceeds or insurance proceeds or
other similar funds or payments attributable to the Property which have been

been paid to Mortgagee (but only to the extent of the amount that should have
been paid to Mortgagee),

                                     -19-

and/or (iii) recover the amount of any tenant security deposits, prepaid rents
or expense recoveries under the Leases paid to or held by Copley in connection
with the Property and not properly applied or turned over to Mortgagee after
foreclosure of the Property or deed-in-lieu of. foreclosure; and/or (iv) recover
the rents and revenues received by Copley from the Property after the occurrence
of an Event of Default that is continuing, which have not been applied to pay
any portion of the Secured Indebtedness, operating (including leasing) and
maintenance expenses of the Property, Premiums, Impositions, deposits into
reserve or replacement or other sums required by the Loan Documents or capital
expenditures and repairs; and/or (v) recover actual damages against Copley,
caused by the material breach by Copley of the covenants, obligations and
liabilities, contained in Sections 3.08, 3.11 and 3.17 of this Mortgage.  Copley
shall be personally liable for Copley's obligations arising in connection with
the matters set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) to (v) inclusive to the
extent provided for in said clauses.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section 1.17(b), Copley shall have personal liability under
the Indemnity Agreement.

          (c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 1.17, on the date hereof JMB Realty Corporation ("JMB") and Overseas
Partners Capital Corporation ("OPCC"; JMB and OPCC each a Guarantor and,
collectively, the "Guarantors") have executed and delivered to Mortgagee a
Guaranty Agreement (the "Guaranty") by which such Guarantors have, jointly and
severally, guaranteed Copley's liability for the matters set forth in Section
1.17(b) clauses (i) to (v) inclusive and under the Indemnity Agreement, and all
costs incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the recovery of any amounts from
Guarantors under the Guaranty. In the event that (x) JMB transfers its interest
in Copley to Urban Shopping Centers, L.P., an Illinois limited partnership
("Urban") in accordance with the Loan Documents, and (y) Urban delivers to
Mortgagee a guaranty, in form, scope and substance substantially similar to the
Guaranty, Mortgagee shall release JMB of its liability under the Guaranty with
respect to matters arising from and after the date of such delivery.

          (d)   Copley's obligations arising in connection with the matters set
forth in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 1.17(b) and the Indemnity Agreement
are sometimes referred to herein and in the other Loan Documents as the
"Recourse Obligations."

commences such cure within the original 30-day period and can cure within such
additional 60-day period or such longer period as is reasonably necessary to
cure so long as Mortgagor is diligently prosecuting such cure and continues to

          For purposes of this Mortgage, the term "default," as used in the
STATUTORY POWER OF SALE, shall mean an Event of Default, as defined in this
Mortgage.

          2.02  REMEDIES UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.  Upon the happening of any Event
of Default, the Secured Indebtedness shall, at the option of Mortgagee, become
immediately due and payable, without further notice or demand, and Mortgagee may
forthwith undertake any one or more of the following:

          (a)   Foreclosure.  Exercise the STATUTORY POWER OF SALE (as later
provided herein), institute an action of mortgage foreclosure in accordance with
the law of the State, or take such other action as the law may allow, at law or
in equity, for the enforcement of the Loan Documents and realization on the
Property or any other security afforded by the Loan Documents, and subject to
the provisions of Section 1.17 hereof, in the case of a judicial proceeding,
proceed to final judgment and execution thereon for the amount of the Secured
Indebtedness (as of the date of such judgment together with all costs of suit,
reasonable

                                     -22-
<PAGE>
 
attorneys' fees and interest on such judgment at the maximum rate permitted by
law from and after the date of such judgment until actual payment is made to
Mortgagee in the full amount due Mortgagee; provided, however, if Mortgagee is
the purchaser at the foreclosure sale of the Property, the foreclosure sale
price (Mortgagee's final bid) shall be applied against the total amount due
Mortgagee; and/or

          (b)   Entry.  Enter into possession of the Property, lease the same,
collect all Rents and Profits therefrom and, after deducting all costs of
collection and administration expenses, apply the remaining Rents and Profits in
such order and amounts as Mortgagee, in Mortgagee's sole discretion, may elect
to the payment of Impositions, operating costs, Premiums and other charges
(including, but not limited to, costs of leasing the Property and fees and costs
of counsel and receivers) and to the maintenance, repair, and restoration of the
Property, or on account and in reduction of the Secured Indebtedness; and/or

          (c)   Receivership. Have a receiver appointed to enter into possession
of the Property, collect the Rents and Profits therefrom and apply the same as
the appropriate court may direct. Mortgagee shall be entitled to the appointment
of a receiver without the necessity of proving either the inadequacy of the
security or the insolvency of Mortgagor or any other person who may be legally
or equitably liable to pay any portion of the Secured Indebtedness and Mortgagor
and each such person shall be deemed to have waived such proof and to have
consented to the appointment of such receiver. Should Mortgagee or any receiver
collect the Rents and Profits, the moneys so collected shall not be substituted
for payment of the Secured Indebtedness nor can they be used to cure the Event
of Default.

          2.03  APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS OF SALE.  In the event of a sale of the
Property pursuant to Section 2.02(a) hereof, the proceeds of said sale, to the
extent permitted by law, shall be applied to the following, in such order as
Mortgagee shall, in its sole discretion, determine: the expenses of such sale
and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including attorneys' fees and
expenses; Impositions, Premiums, liens, and other charges and expenses; the
outstanding principal balance of the Secured Indebtedness; any accrued interest;
and any other unpaid portion of the Secured Indebtedness.

          (a)   THIS MORTGAGE CREATES A LIEN ON THE PROPERTY, AND TO THE EXTENT
THE PROPERTY IS PERSONAL PROPERTY UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, THIS MORTGAGE
CONSTITUTES A SECURITY AGREEMENT UNDER THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE OF THE STATE
WHERE THE PERSONAL PROPERTY IS SITUATED (THE -U.C.C.-) AND ANY OTHER APPLICABLE
LAW AND IS FILED AS A FIXTURE FILING.  UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF
DEFAULT, MORTGAGEE MAY, AT ITS OPTION, PURSUE ANY AND ALL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
AVAILABLE TO A SECURED PARTY WITH RESPECT TO ANY PORTION OF THE PROPERTY, AND/OR
MORTGAGEE MAY, AT ITS OPTION, PROCEED AS TO ALL OR ANY PART OF THE PROPERTY IN
ACCORDANCE WITH

                                     -23-
<PAGE>
 
MORTGAGEE'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO THE LIEN CREATED BY THIS
MORTGAGE.

          (b)   The grant of a security interest to Mortgagee in the granting
clause of this Mortgage shall not be construed to derogate from or impair the
lien or provisions of or the rights of Mortgagee under this Mortgage with
respect to any property described therein which is real property or which the
parties have agreed to treat as real property.  The hereby stated intention of
Mortgagor and Mortgagee is that everything now or hereafter owned by the
Mortgagor and used in connection with the production of income from such real
property or adapted for use thereon is, and at all times and for all purposes
and in all proceedings, both legal and equitable, shall be regarded as real
property, irrespective of whether or not the same is physically attached to the
Land and/or Improvements.

          (c)   If reasonably required by Mortgagee, at any time during the term
of this Mortgage, Mortgagor will execute and deliver to Mortgagee, in form
satisfactory to Mortgagee, additional security agreements. financing statements
and/or other instruments covering all Personal Property or fixtures of Mortgagor
which may at any time be furnished, placed on, or annexed or made appurtenant to
the Real Property or used, useful or held for use, in the operation of the
Improvements.

          (d)   Mortgagor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Mortgagee
as its attorney-in-fact and such appointment is coupled with an interest, to
execute, deliver and file with the appropriate filing officer or office such
security agreements, financing statements and/or other instruments as Mortgagee
may request or require in order to impose and perfect the lien and security
interest created hereby more specifically on the Personal Property or any
fixtures.

          (e)   If Mortgagor enters into a separate security agreement with
Mortgagee relating to any of the Personal Property or fixtures, the terms of
such security agreement shall govern the rights and remedies of Mortgagee after
an Event of Default thereunder.

          (f)   It is understood and agreed that, in order to protect Mortgagee
from the effect of U.C.C. Section 9-313, as amended from time to time, in the
event that Mortgagor intends to purchase (subject, however, to the provisions of
Section 3.15) any goods of a value of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars
($500,000.00) or more which may become fixtures attached to the Property, or any
part thereof, and such goods will be subject to a purchase money security
interest held by a seller or any other party:

                (1)   Mortgagor shall, before executing any security agreement
or other document evidencing or perfecting such security interest, obtain the
prior written approval of Mortgagee, which approval shall be in Mortgagee's sole
discretion, and all requests for such written approval shall be in writing and
contain the following information: (i) a description of the. fixtures to be
replaced, added to, installed or substituted; (ii) the address at which the
fixtures will be replaced, added to, installed or substituted; and (iii) the
name and address of the proposed holder and proposed amount of the security
interest.

                                     -24-
<PAGE>
 
          Mortgagor's execution of any such security agreement or other document
evidencing or perfecting such security interest without Mortgagee's prior
written approval shall constitute an Event of Default.  No consent by Mortgagee
pursuant to this subparagraph shall be deemed to constitute an agreement to
subordinate any right of Mortgagee in fixtures or other property covered by this
Mortgage.

          (2)   If at any time Mortgagor fails to make any payment on an
obligation secured by a purchase money security interest in the Personal
Property or any fixtures, Mortgagee, at its option, may at any time pay the
amount secured by such security interest.  Any money paid by Mortgagee under
this subparagraph, including any expenses, costs, charges and attorneys' fees
incurred by Mortgagee, shall be reimbursed to Mortgagee in accordance with
Section 3. 10 hereof.  Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder
of any such purchase money security interest in the Personal Property.

          (3)   Mortgagee shall have the right to acquire by assignment from the
holder of such security interest any and all contract rights, accounts
receivable, negotiable or non-negotiable instruments, or other evidence of
Mortgagor's indebtedness for such Personal Property or fixtures, and, upon
acquiring such interest by assignment, shall have the right to enforce the
security interest as assignee thereof, in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the U.C.C. and in accordance with any other provisions of law.

          (4)   Whether or not Mortgagee has paid the indebtedness secured by,
or taken an assignment of, such security interest, Mortgagor covenants to pay
all sums and perform all obligations secured thereby, and if Mortgagor at any
time shall be in default under such security agreement (beyond applicable cure
periods, if any), it shall constitute an Event of Default if not cured within
ten (10) days after notice from Mortgagee to Mortgagor.

          (5)   The provisions of subparagraphs (2) and (3) of this paragraph
(f) shall not apply if the goods which may become fixtures are of at least
equivalent value and quality as any property being replaced and if the rights of
the party holding such security interest have been expressly subordinated, at no
cost to Mortgagee, to the lien and security interest of this Mortgage in a
manner satisfactory to Mortgagee, including without limitation, at the option of
Mortgagee, providing to Mortgagee a satisfactory opinion of counsel to the
effect that this Mortgage constitutes a valid and subsisting first lien on such
fixtures which is not subordinate to the lien of such security interest under
any applicable law, including without limitation, the provisions of Section 9-
313 of the U.C.C. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph
(f), in no event shall any purchase money security interest which is a lien on
all or any part of the Property of any dollar amount be granted by Mortgagor
without first obtaining the prior written consent of Mortgagee in its sole
discretion.

     (g)  Mortgagor hereby warrants, represents and covenants as follows:

            (1) Other than as set forth on Exhibit "G" Mortgagor is and has been
the sole owner of the Personal Property for at least fifteen (15) days free from
any lien, security interest, encumbrance or adverse claim thereon of any kind
whatsoever.  Mortgagor

                                     -25-
<PAGE>
 
will notify Mortgagee of, and will protect, defend and indemnify Mortgagee
against, all claims and demands of all persons at any time claiming any rights
or interest therein.

                (2) The Personal Property is not used or bought and shall not be
or bought for personal, family, or household purposes, but shall be bought and
used solely for the purpose of carrying on Mortgagor's business.

                (3)   The Personal Property has been located on the land and/or
Improvements for at least fifteen (15) days and will be kept on or at the Land
or the Improvements and Mortgagor will not remove the Personal Property
therefrom without the prior written consent of Mortgagee not to be unreasonably
withheld, except such portions or items of Personal Property which are consumed
or whom out in ordinary usage, all of which shall be promptly replaced by
Mortgagor with other Personal Property of value equal to or greater than the
value of the replaced Personal Property when new, and except such portions or
items of Personal Property temporarily stored elsewhere to facilitate
refurbishing or repair thereof or of the Improvements.

                (4)   Mortgagor maintains a place of business in the State and
Mortgagor will immediately notify Mortgagee in writing of any change in its
principal place of business as set forth in the beginning of this Mortgage.

          3.02  NO WAIVER.  No single or partial exercise by Mortgagee, or delay
or omission in the exercise by Mortgagee, of any right or remedy under the Loan
Documents shall preclude, waive or limit any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  Mortgagee shall at all times have
the right to proceed against any portion of, or interest in, the Property in
such manner as Mortgagee may deem fit, without waiving any other rights or
remedies with respect to any other portion of the Property.

          3.03 CONVEYANCE OF PROPERTY, CHANGE IN OWNERSHIP AND COMPOSITION.

          (a)   Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Section 3.03,

interest in the Property, to be conveyed, transferred, assigned, encumbered,

OPCC's direct membership interest in Copley to JMB or Urban as described in
Section 8 of Exhibit E of Copley's Operating Agreement provided no obligations

the individuals comprising, or in the partners, or stockholders, or members or
beneficiaries of, Mortgagor from those represented to Mortgagee on the date of

planning, of a natural person to a spouse, son or daughter or descendant of
either, or to a stepson or stepdaughter or descendant of either.

          (b)   Without in any way limiting Mortgagee's approval rights as set
forth above, Mortgagee agrees that the payment of a transfer fee will not be
required in connection with the following transfers: (i) a transfer by JMB,
Urban and/or OPCC of all or any portion of their direct membership interests in
Copley among each other or to an affiliate entity of Urban, JMB and/or OPCC of

have a total asset valuation at least equal to that of JMB or OPCC, or

their direct membership interests in Copley either to each other or to Urban; or

          (ii)  the transfer of or change in the ownership interests in either

Guarantors under the Guaranty in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee,
(xii) such transferee shall be an entity that meets all the requirements of the
Rating Agencies, as determined by such Rating Agencies in their sole discretion,
including, without limitation, the delivery of a non-consolidation opinion,
provided that Mortgagee pay the reasonable costs of meeting Securitization
requirements of the Rating Agencies, including reasonable legal fees of
preparing such non-consolidation opinion, in the event that Mortgagor is
required to reimburse transferee for such costs or fees, (xiii) such transfer
shall not cause a reduction, withdrawal or revocation of any rating given by any
Rating Agency to the Loan or any participation thereof, as determined by such
Rating Agency in its sole discretion, or if such a rating has not yet been
given, such transfer shall not adversely affect a subsequent rating to be given
by any Rating Agency to the Loan or any participation thereof, as determined by
such Rating Agency in its sole discretion, (xiv) Mortgagor shall have obtained

by MTA under the Master Lease and Central Area Sublease and by the MTA and
Copley ONE, LLC with respect to the Marriott Garage Sublease, (xv) all necessary
deferred maintenance on the Property has been completed or reserved against to
the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee, (xvi) so long as the Management
Agreements are in effect, there shall be no outstanding deferred amounts payable
to the managers under the terms of the Management Agreements which are not paid
in connection with such transfer, and (xvii) the proposed transferee, its
affiliates, related entities and/or principals therein are free from any
bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceedings or any criminal charges or
proceedings and shall not have been, at the time of transfer or in the past, a
litigant, plaintiff or defendant in any suit brought against or by Mortgagee. In
the event Mortgagee approves such transfer, Mortgagee shall release Mortgagor,
the members or partners of Mortgagor or the Guarantors from their obligations
under the Loan Documents, the Indemnity Agreement or the Guaranty except with
respect to events arising or occurring prior to the date of transfer. Mortgagor
agrees to include with its written request, evidence of the foregoing in
sufficient detail, including without limitation the name, net worth, background
and address of the proposed transferee and principals of the proposed transferee
to enable Mortgagee to determine the acceptability of the proposed transferee.

          (e)   Mortgagor shall be notified in writing by Mortgagee, within ten
(10) business days following Mortgagee's receipt of Mortgagor's initial request,
of any further information Mortgagee deems necessary to make its determination
of whether it wishes to consent to such transfer and within thirty (30) days
following Mortgagee's receipt of all of the data it deems necessary, as
aforesaid, whether Mortgagee approves such proposed transferee.  Failure of
Mortgagee to notify Mortgagor in a timely fashion as contemplated hereunder
shall be deemed disapproval of the proposed transfer by Mortgagee.  If Mortgagee
disapproves such proposed transfer or such transfer is so deemed disapproved,
Mortgagee shall within five (5) business days after receipt of notice from
Mortgagor give notice to Mortgagor stating the conditions in paragraph (d) above
which were not satisfied in connection with the proposed transfer.  Mortgagor
shall cause Mortgagee's title insurance policy or policies to be endorsed at no
expense to Mortgagee to extend the effective date thereof to the date of the
execution and delivery of the assumption agreement provided in the preceding
subparagraph (d), such endorsement to be executed and delivered with no
additional exceptions added to such title insurance policy or policies.  If
Mortgagee consents to such transfer, Mortgagee shall be paid the balance of the
Transfer Fee concurrent with its consent and before the proposed transfer.

          (f)   Mortgagor hereby irrevocably waives any rights that it may have
to collect money damages for any refusal by Mortgagee to consent to any such
proposed transfer and specifically agrees that Mortgagor's sole remedy at law or
in equity if such refusal is found to be wrongful shall be the initiation,
within sixty (60) days of notice to Mortgagor of such refusal, of a suit for
specific performance against Mortgagee seeking to compel Mortgagee's consent to
the proposed transfer under the terms hereof, except that Mortgagor shall have
the right to make a claim for money damages if Mortgagee's refusal to grant such
consent is determined by a Court to have been in bad faith or willful disregard
of the provisions hereof.

the individuals comprising Mortgagor, (ii) partner or member of Mortgagor or
(iii) officer of Mortgagor, as the case may be, stating whether (x) the
Property, or any part thereof, or any interest therein, has been conveyed,
transferred, assigned, encumbered, sold or otherwise disposed of, and if so, to
whom; (y) any conveyance, transfer, pledge or encumbrance of any interest in
Mortgagor has been made by Mortgagor and if so, to whom, or (z) there has been
any change in the individual(s) comprising Mortgagor or in the members,
partners, stockholders or beneficiaries of Mortgagor from those on the date
hereof, and if so, a description of such change or changes.

          Except to the extent necessary to effectuate any transfer of interests

after a request by Mortgagee, furnish a duly acknowledged written statement in
form satisfactory to Mortgagee setting forth the amount of the Secured
Indebtedness, stating either that no offsets or defenses exist against the
Secured Indebtedness, or if such offsets or defenses are alleged to exist, the
nature and extent thereof and such other matters as Mortgagee may reasonably
request.  Mortgagee shall within ten (10) days after a request by Mortgagor
furnish a written statement to the actual knowledge of the loan officer with
primary responsibility for servicing the Loan, setting forth the amount of the
Secured Indebtedness and, whether any Event of Default exists, or whether any
notice of default has been given, under the Mortgage, the Guaranty, the

and without expense to Mortgagee, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all and
every such further acts, deeds, conveyances, mortgages, deeds of trust,

of assignments, transfers and assurances as Mortgagee shall from time to time
reasonably require, for the better assuring, conveying, assigning, transferring
and confirming unto Mortgagee the Property and rights hereby conveyed or
assigned or intended now or hereafter so to be, or which Mortgagor may be or may
hereafter become bound to convey or assign to Mortgagee, or for filing,
refiling, registering, reregistering, recording or recording this Mortgage.
Upon any failure by Mortgagor to comply with the terms of this Section,
Mortgagee may, at Mortgagor's expense, make, execute, record, file, rerecord
and/or refile any and all such documents for and in the name of Mortgagor, and
Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as its attorney-in-fact so to do
and such appointment is coupled with an interest.

          3.06  FEES AND EXPENSES.  Except as the same may be the result of
Mortgagee's or its agents' gross negligence or willful disregard of its
obligations hereunder, if

                                     -30-

theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note, Mortgagor will execute and
deliver, in lieu thereof, a replacement note, identical in form and substance to
such Note and dated as of the date of such Note and upon such execution and
delivery all references in any of the Loan Documents to such Note shall be
deemed to refer to such replacement note.

          3.08  HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES.

          (a) Mortgagor hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees to and
with Mortgagee that, except as disclosed in the Environmental Report dated July
7, 1997 (as to representations and warranties), and to Mortgagor's actual
knowledge, all operations or activities upon, or any use or occupancy of the
Property, or any portion thereof, by Mortgagor, and any tenant, subtenant or
occupant of the Property, or any portion thereof, is presently and shall
hereafter be in all respects in compliance with all state, federal and local
laws and regulations governing or in any way relating to the generation,
handling, manufacturing, treatment, storage, use, transportation, spillage,

intentional) of any Hazardous Substance; and that neither Mortgagor nor (to
Mortgagor's actual knowledge) any tenant, subtenant or occupant of all or any
portion of the Property, has at any time placed, suffered or permitted the
presence of any such Hazardous Substances at, on, under, within or about the
Property, or any portion thereof in violation of applicable law.

          (b) In the event any investigation or monitoring of site conditions or
any clean-up, containment, restoration, removal or other remedial work
(collectively. the "Remedial Work") is required under any applicable federal,
state or local law or regulation, by any judicial order, or by any governmental
entity, or in order to comply with any agreement entered into because of, or in
connection with, any occurrence or event described in this Section, Mortgagor
shall perform or cause to be performed the Remedial Work in compliance with such
law, regulation, order or agreement.  All Remedial Work shall be performed by
one or more contractors, selected by Mortgagor and reasonably approved in
advance in writing by Mortgagee, and under the supervision of a consulting
engineer, selected by Mortgagor and reasonably approved in advance in writing by
Mortgagee.  All costs and expenses of such Remedial Work shall be paid by
Mortgagor including, without limitation, the charges of such contractor(s)

                                      -31-
<PAGE>
 
monitoring or review of such Remedial Work.  In the event Mortgagor shall fail
to timely commence, or cause to be commenced, or fail to diligently prosecute to
completion, such Remedial Work after 30 days notice to Mortgagor by Mortgagee or
earlier if required by governmental authorities (except that in the event of
emergency only concurrent notice shall be required) Mortgagee may, but shall not
be required to, cause such Remedial Work to be performed, and all costs and
expenses thereof, or incurred in connection therewith, shall be reimbursed to
Mortgagee in accordance with Section 3. 10 hereof.

          3.09   WAIVER OF CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Mortgagor covenants and agrees
that in no event shall Mortgagee be liable for consequential damages, whatever
the nature of a failure by Mortgagee to perform its obligation(s), if any, under

or may hereafter have against Mortgagee for such consequential damages.

          3.10   MORTGAGEE REIMBURSEMENT. Subject to the notice requirements in
Section 1.15 hereof, any payments made, or funds expended or advanced by
Mortgagee pursuant to the provisions of any Loan Document, shall (1) become a
part of the Secured Indebtedness, (2) bear interest at the Loan Interest Rate
(as such term is defined in the Notes) from the date such payments are made or
funds expended or advanced, (3) become due and payable by Mortgagor upon demand
therefor by Mortgagee, and (4) bear interest at the Default Rate (as such term
is defined in the Notes) from the date of such demand. Failure to reimburse
Mortgagee upon such demand shall constitute an Event of Default under Section
2.01(a) hereof after the expiration of any notice and grace period provided in
Section 2.01 (a).

          3.11   ERISA. Mortgagor hereby represents, warrants and covenants as
of the date hereof and throughout the term of this Mortgage that:

          (a) Mortgagor is not an employee benefit plan as defined in Section
3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
("ERISA"), which is subject to Title 1 of ERISA, nor a plan as defined in
Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (each of the
foregoing hereinafter referred to collectively as a "Plan");

          (b) Mortgagor's assets do not constitute "plan assets" of one or more
such Plans within the meaning of Department of Labor Regulation Section 2510.3-

of the other Loan Documents pertaining to transfers of interests in the
Property, Mortgagor agrees it will not transfer or convey the Property to a Plan
or to a person or entity whose assets constitute such "plan assets" unless
reasonably in advance of the proposed transfer or conveyance, Mortgagor
furnishes Mortgagee with either (i) a written opinion of legal counsel (in form
and substance and from counsel acceptable to Mortgagee), or (ii) an individual
prohibited transaction exemption from the United States Department of Labor (in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee), that the transfer or
conveyance will not

                                      -32-
<PAGE>
 
constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA as of the date of the
transfer and throughout the term of the loan evidenced by the Note;

          (d)  Mortgagor will not be reconstituted as a Plan or an entity whose
assets constitute "plan assets"; and

          (e)  With respect to the Secured Indebtedness, Mortgagor is acting on
its own behalf and not on account of or for the benefit of any Plan.

          [(f) Mortgagee hereby represents, warrants and covenants that the Loan

requirements under Section 1 of Prohibited Transaction Exemption 95-60 as
published in the Federal Register on July 12, 1995, have and will, throughout
the term of the Loan, be satisfied with respect to the Loan except to the extent
the Loan is assigned by Mortgagee in whole or in part to a third party.
Regarding such assignment, Mortgagee represents that the assignee shall not be
an employee benefit plan as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), which is subject to Title I
of ERISA, nor a plan as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue
code of 1986, as amended (each of the foregoing hereinafter referred to
collectively as "Plans"), and (2) the assets of the assignee will not constitute
                --------                                                        
"plan assets" of one or more such Plans within the meaning of Department of
Labor ("DOL") Regulation Section 2510.3-101.

          3.12 BROKERS AND OTHER SPECIAL INDEMNIFICATION MATTERS.

          Except to the extent arising out of the acts of Mortgagee or its
agents or employees acting within the scope of their agency or employment or due
to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee or its agents,
Mortgagor shall indemnify, defend and hold Mortgagee harmless from and against
(i) any and all claims for brokerage, leasing, finder's or similar fees which
may relate to the Real Property or the Secured Indebtedness, and (ii) any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions,
suits, costs and expenses (including without limitation, attorneys' fees and
disbursements at the trial level and at all appellate levels) of whatever kind
or nature which may be imposed on or incurred by Mortgagee at any time pursuant
either to a judgment or decree or other order entered into by a court or
administrative agency or to a settlement reasonably approved by Mortgagor, which
judgment, decree, order or settlement is related in any way or arises out of the
offer, sale or lease of the Property or transfer of interests therein and/or the
ownership, use, occupation or operation of any portion of the Property,
including without limitation, (a) all claims arising out of or in connection
with a purported Operating Agreement, as such term is defined in an Easement
Agreement dated February 22, 1982 recorded with said Deeds in Book 10011, Page

with the lack of any sewer connection permit for the Property as may be required

          3.13 MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT. The term "Management Agreements" shall
mean, collectively, the Management Agreement dated as of January 23, 1997
between Borrower and Overseas Management, Inc. (OMI) and the Agreement for

                                      -33-
<PAGE>
 
Consulting and Other Services dated as of January 23, 1997 between OMI and Urban
Retail Properties Co. (OMI and Urban Retail Properties Co. hereinafter sometimes
referred to individually as a "Management Company" and collectively as the
"Management Companies").  No new agreements with respect to the management
and/or operation of the Property and/or managers with respect to the Property
shall be entered into or substituted without Mortgagee's prior written consent
in its sole discretion.

               (a)  Mortgagor hereby represents and warrants with respect to
each of the Management Agreements as follows:

               (i)    The copy of the Management Agreements delivered by
               Mortgagor to Mortgagee is accurate and complete. There are no
               other oral or written agreements, understandings or the like
               between Mortgagor and the Management Companies or between the
               Management Companies relating to the Property or the Management
               Agreements;

               (ii)   The Management Agreements have not been modified, altered
               or amended in any material respect;

               (iii)  The Management Agreements are in full force and effect and
               are valid, binding and enforceable against both the Management
               Companies and Mortgagor;

               (iv)   Neither the Management Companies nor Mortgagor are in
               default under the Management Agreements. No state of facts exists
               which with notice, the passage of time or both, could ripen into
               a default under the Management Agreements. The Management
               Companies do not have any claims or rights of offset against the
               Mortgagor or each other based upon any prior defaults of
               Mortgagor or its predecessor(s) or the other Management Company;
               and

               (v)    The making of the Loan will not result in any breach of,
               or constitute a default under, the Management Agreements.

               (b)    Mortgagor covenants and agrees with respect to the
Management Agreements as follows:

               (i)    Mortgagor shall fully, timely and completely observe and
               perform in all material respects all of its other obligations
               under the Management Agreements(taking into account grace or cure
               periods, if any, under the Management Agreements).

               (ii)   Mortgagor shall not cancel, terminate or surrender the
               Management Agreements or consent to or accept or permit a
               cancellation, termination or surrender thereof, whether or not
               such cancellation, termination or surrender is effected in
               accordance with the provisions thereof. Mortgagor may not modify,
               alter or amend, or permit or suffer the modification, alteration
               or amendment

                                      -34-
<PAGE>
 
               of, the terms of the Management Agreements, without first
               obtaining Mortgagee's prior written consent, which consent shall
               not be unreasonably withheld. Mortgagor shall not suffer or
               permit to occur any assignment or other transfer of the
               Management Companies' interests in the Management Agreements
               (whether or not such transfer or assignment is pursuant to rights
               granted to any Management Company in the Management Agreements)
               without the consent of Mortgagee in its sole discretion.

               (iii)  Mortgagor shall promptly deliver to Mortgagee copies of
               (a) all notices of default, and (b) all other notices,
               certificates, documents and instruments sent or received by
               Mortgagor under or with respect to the Management Agreements.

               (iv)   Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, cure any
               default by Mortgagor under the Management Agreements. No such
               action by Mortgagee shall release Mortgagor from any obligation
               under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor shall pay Mortgagee on demand
               all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
               incurred by Mortgagee in connection with such cure. Such cure
               payments and costs and expenses of Mortgagee shall be secured
               hereby with the same priority as the Secured Indebtedness and
               shall bear interest from the date so advanced by Mortgagee until
               repaid at the Default Rate provided in the Notes.

               3.14 GROUND LEASE REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS.

               a)     As to each of its respective Ground Leases in which it
               holds tenant's estate therein, each Mortgagor represents and
               warrants as follows:

               (i)    Such Mortgagor holds a direct leasehold (or subleasehold
               in the case of the Central Area Sublease and the Marriott Garage
               Sublease) estate in the Real Property demised thereunder pursuant
               to such Ground Lease;

               (ii)   The copy of the Ground Lease delivered by Mortgagor to
               Mortgagee is accurate and complete. There are no other oral or
               written agreements, understandings or the like between Mortgagor
               and its respective lessor or sublessor under the Ground Lease
               relating to the Property or the Ground Lease;

               (ii)   The Ground Lease has not been modified, altered or amended
               in any respect;

               (iii)  The Ground Lease is in full force and effect and is valid,
               binding and enforceable against both such respective lessor or
               sublessor and Mortgagor;

               (iv)   Neither such respective lessor or sublessor (as to the MTA
               and the BRA, as defined in Schedule A-1 and A-3, respectively, to
               Mortgagor's actual knowledge) nor Mortgagor is in default under
               the Ground Lease. No state of-

                                      -35-
<PAGE>
 
               facts exists which with notice, the passage of time or both,
               could ripen into a default under the Ground Lease by Mortgagor or
               any lessor or sublessor (as to the MTA or the BRA to Mortgagor's
               actual knowledge), except as set forth in the Estoppel
               Certificate from the MTA with respect to the Master Lease (the
               "MTA Estoppel");

               (v)    The respective lessor or sublessor under the Ground Lease
               has consented to this Mortgage and the execution and delivery of
               the Loan Documents (or no consent was required); and the
               consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not
               result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, the
               Ground Lease;

               (vi)   All actions which must be taken for Mortgagee to have the
               rights of a leasehold mortgagee pursuant to the Ground Lease have
               been taken and completed; and

                      (vii)  Mortgagor has not granted any other leasehold
               mortgage or made any other assignment, pledge or hypothecation of
               its interest under the Ground Lease that will not be released
               upon funding of the Loan.

                      (b) Each Mortgagor covenants and agrees with respect to
               each of its Ground Leases in which it holds tenant's estate
               therein as follows:

                             (i)   Such Mortgagor shall pay all rent and other
               monetary obligations under the Ground Lease when due and shall
               fully, timely and completely observe and perform in all material
               respects all of its other obligations under the Ground Lease
               (taking into account grace or cure periods, if any, under the
               Ground Lease).

                             (ii)  Mortgagor shall not cancel, terminate or
               surrender the Ground Lease or consent to or accept a
               cancellation, termination or surrender thereof. Such Mortgagor
               shall not modify, alter or amend the Ground Lease without, in
               each instance, Mortgagee's prior written consent, which shall be
               at Mortgagee's sole discretion, except that Mortgagee shall not
               unreasonably withhold its consent to an amendment of the Central
               Areas Sublease whereby Mortgagor agrees to become liable for
               certain repair and maintenance costs of the lighting in
               connection with a settlement of the dispute with the MTA
               described in the MTA Estoppel.

                             (iii) Except in the case of permitted transfer
               under Section 3.03, Mortgagor shall not convey, assign, sell,
               mortgage, encumber, pledge, dispose of, hypothecate, grant a
               security interest in, grant options with respect to or otherwise
               dispose of (directly or indirectly) by operation of law or
               otherwise, of record or not, the Ground Lease or all or any part
               of its interest therein without, in each instance, the prior
               written consent of Mortgagee, which consent shall be at
               Mortgagee's sole discretion.

                    (iv) The fee title to the land described in Exhibit "B-1"
               through "B-3" (and in the case of Mortgagee's interest in a
               subleasehold estate, the estate of Mortgagor's sublessor as
               tenant under the underlying lease) and the leasehold estate under
               the Ground Lease shall not merge but shall remain at all times
               separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of such estates
               in the lessor or sublessor under the Ground Lease, Mortgagor or a
               third party, whether by purchase or otherwise.

                         (v)    Mortgagee shall at all times have the rights of
               a leasehold mortgagee as set forth in the Ground Lease.

                         (vi)   Mortgagor shall promptly deliver to Mortgagee
               copies of (a) all notices of default, and (b) all other notices,
               certificates, documents and instruments sent or received by
               Mortgagor under or with respect to the Ground Lease.

                         (vii)  In the event of any default by Mortgagor in the
               performance of any of its obligations under the Ground Lease,
               including, without limitation, any default in the payment of
               rent, additional rent and other charges and impositions made
               payable by the tenant under the Ground Lease, then, in each and
               every case, Mortgagee may, at its option, upon five (5) business
               days' notice to Mortgagor, cause the default or defaults to -be
               remedied and otherwise exercise any and all of the rights of
               Mortgagor thereunder in the name of and on behalf of the
               Mortgagor but no such action by Mortgagee shall release Mortgagor
               from any default under this Mortgage.  Mortgagor shall, on
               demand, reimburse Mortgagee for all advances made and expenses
               incurred by Mortgagee in curing any such default (including,
               without limitation, attorneys' fees and disbursements), together
               with interest thereon at the Default Rate provided in the Note
               from the date that an advance is made or expense is incurred, to
               and including the date the same is paid and such monies so
               expended by Mortgagee with interest thereon shall be secured by
               this Mortgage.

                         (viii) Subject to subparagraph (c) below, it is hereby
               agreed that the fee title and the leasehold estates in the
               property demised by the Ground Lease shall not merge but shall
               always be kept separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union
               of said estates in either the landlord thereunder, Mortgagor or a
               third party, whether by purchase or otherwise and Mortgagee shall
               continue to have and enjoy all of the rights and privileges of
               the Mortgagee as to the separate estates.  If Mortgagor acquires
               the fee title, the interest of the Ground Lessee or any other
               estate, title or interest in the property demised by the Ground
               Lease, or any part thereof, the lien of this Mortgage shall
               attach to, cover and be a lien upon such acquired estate, title
               or interest and same shall thereupon be and become a part of the
               Mortgaged Property with the same force and effect as if
               specifically encumbered herein.  Mortgagor agrees to execute all
               instruments and documents which Mortgagee may reasonably require
               to ratify, confirm and further evidence Mortgagee's lien on the
               acquired estate, title or interest.

               Furthermore, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee its true and
               lawful attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver all such
               instruments and documents in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor.
               This power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable
               as long as the Secured Indebtedness remains unpaid.  Provided
               that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
               Mortgagee shall provide Mortgagor ten (10) days prior notice
               before exercising such power.  Mortgagor shall not purchase the
               premises demised by the Ground Lease or acquire the interest of
               the Ground Lessor in such premises or sell its interest in the
               leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease without Mortgagee's
               prior written consent.

               (ix)   If the Ground Lease is canceled or terminated, and if
               Mortgagee or its nominee  shall acquire an interest in any new
               lease of the property demised thereby, Mortgagor shall have no
               right, title or interest in or to the new lease or the leasehold
               estate created by such new lease.

               (x)    Mortgagor shall use its best efforts to obtain and deliver
               to Mortgagee from time to time within ten (10) days after written
               demand by Mortgagee, an estoppel certificate from the landlord
               under the Ground Lease (provided that with respect to estoppel
               certificates from the MTA or the BRA or any nonaffiliated Ground
               Lessor, Mortgagor shall use reasonable good faith efforts to
               obtain such certificates), as requested by Mortgagee, setting
               forth (i) the name of the tenant (under the Ground Lease, (ii)
               that the Ground Lease has not been modified or, if it has been
               modified, the date of each modification (together with copies of
               each such modification), (iii) the basic rent and additional rent
               payable under the Ground Lease, (iv) the date to which all rental
               charges have been paid by the tenant under the Ground Lease, and
               (v) whether there are any alleged defaults of the tenant under
               the Ground Lease or if there are any events which have occurred
               which with notice, such passage of time or both, would constitute
               a default under the Ground Lease, and, if there are, setting
               forth the nature thereof in reasonable detail and from the
               landlord under the Ground Lease containing information similar
               thereto.

               (xi)   Mortgagee shall have no liability or obligation under the
               Ground Lease by reason of its acceptance of this Mortgage.
               Mortgagee shall be liable for the obligations of the tenant
               arising under the Ground Lease for only that period of time which
               Mortgagee is in possession of the Mortgaged Property or has
               acquired, by foreclosure or otherwise, and is holding all of the
               Mortgagor's right, title and interest therein.

               (xii)  No release or forbearance of any of Mortgagor's
               obligations under the Ground Lease, pursuant to the Ground Lease
               or otherwise, shall release Mortgagor from any of its obligations
               under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents.

               (xiii)  Mortgagor shall enforce the obligations of the Ground
               Lessor under the Ground Lease, and will immediately notify
               Mortgagee of any default by either of the  lessor, or by
               Mortgagor as lessee, in the performance or observance of any of
               the terms, covenants and conditions on the part of such lessor or
               Mortgagor, as the case may be, to be performed or observed under
               the Ground Lease and Mortgagor will immediately advise Mortgagee
               of the occurrence of any of the events of default enumerated in
               the Ground Lease and of the giving of any notice by the lessor
               under the Ground Lease to Mortgagor of any default by Mortgagor,
               as such lessee, in the performance or observance of any of the
               terms, covenants or conditions of the Ground Lease on the part of
               Mortgagor to be performed or observed and will immediately
               deliver to Mortgagee a true copy of each such notice.  If,
               pursuant to the Ground Lease, the lessor shall deliver to
               Mortgagee a copy of any notice of default given to Mortgagor, as
               lessee under the Ground Lease, such notice shall constitute full
               authority and protection to Mortgagee for any action taken or
               omitted to be taken by Mortgagee, m good faith and in reliance
               thereon.  Mortgagor shall promptly deliver to Mortgagee copies of
               all notices and other communications to Ground lessor under the
               Ground Lease.

               (xiv)   Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee immediate notice of the
               commencement of any arbitration or appraisal proceeding
               concerning the provisions of the Ground Lease.  Mortgagee shall
               have the right to intervene and participate in any such
               proceeding and Mortgagor shall confer with Mortgagee and its
               attorneys and experts and cooperate with them to the extent which
               Mortgagee deems reasonably necessary for the protection of
               Mortgagee.  Upon the request of Mortgagee, Mortgagor will
               exercise all rights of arbitration conferred upon it by the
               Ground Lease.  If at any time such proceeding shall be commenced,
               Mortgagor shall be in material default in the performance or
               observance of any covenant, condition or other requirement of the
               Ground Lease, or of this Mortgage, on the part of Mortgagor to be
               performed or observed, Mortgagee shall have, and is hereby
               granted, the sole and exclusive right to designate and appoint on
               behalf of Mortgagor, the arbitrator or arbitrators, or appraiser,
               in such proceeding.

               (xv)    Mortgagor will, promptly after the execution and delivery
               of this Mortgage or of any instrument or agreement supplemental
               hereto, notify the lessor under the Ground Lease in writing of
               the execution and delivery hereof and deliver to such lessor a
               copy of each such instrument or agreement.

               (xvi)   If the Ground Lease is rejected in any case, proceeding
               or other action commenced by or against the lessor under the
               Ground Lease (or any person or party constituting or having an
               interest in the Ground Lease) under the Bankruptcy Code of 1978
               or any comparable federal or state statute or law, (i) Mortgagor,
               immediately after obtaining notice thereof, shall give notice
               thereof to Mortgagee, (ii) Mortgagor, without the prior written
               consent of

                                      -39-
<PAGE>
 
               Mortgagee, shall not elect to treat the Ground Lease as
               terminated pursuant to Section 365(h)(i) of said Bankruptcy Code
               or any comparable federal or state statute or law, and any
               election by Mortgagor made without such consent shall be void and
               (iii) this Mortgage and all the liens, terms, covenants and
               conditions of this Mortgage shall extend to and cover Mortgagor's
               possessory rights under Bankruptcy Code Section 365(h) and to any
               claim for damages due to lessor's rejection of the Ground Lease.
               In addition, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law,
               Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee Mortgagor's rights to
               accept disaffirmance of the Ground Lease and to offset rents
               under the Ground Lease in the event any case, proceeding or other
               action is commenced by or against the lessor under the Ground
               Lease under the Bankruptcy Code of 1978 or any comparable statute
               or law.

               (xvii)  Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee Mortgagor's right
               to seek an extension of the 60-day period within which Mortgagor
               must accept or reject the Ground Lease under Section 365 of the
               Bankruptcy Code of 1978 or any comparable federal or state
               statute or law with respect to any case, proceeding or other
               action commenced by or against Mortgagor under such Code or
               comparable federal or state statute or law.  Furthermore, at
               Mortgagee's request, to the extent not prohibited by applicable
               law, Mortgagor shall assign its interest in the Ground Lease to
               Mortgagee in lieu of rejecting the Ground Lease as described
               above, upon receipt by Mortgagor of written notice from Mortgagee
               of such request together with Mortgagor's agreement to cure any
               existing defaults of Mortgagor under the Ground I-ease.

               c)      Immediately following the closing of the Loan, Copley
shall cause the Master Lease between the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority (the
"MTA"), as ground lessor, and UIDC, as ground lessee, referred to in Exhibit A-1
to be terminated with respect to the Central Area Property, and cause the
Central Area Sublease simultaneously with such termination to become a direct
lease between MTA and Copley, by complying with the provisions of that certain
Non-disturbance, Recognition and Direct Leasing Agreement dated August 31, 1982
and recorded in the Suffolk Registry of Deeds in Book 10056, Page 242 (the
"Direct Leasing Agreement") among the MTA, UIDC and UIDC of Massachusetts, Inc.,
the predecessor of Copley as ground lessee under the Central Area Sublease, and
giving to the MTA a Notice of Direct Lease, as provided in Section 6 of the
Direct Leasing Agreement, with the result that Copley's interest in the Central
Area Property will be wholly independent of, and in no way contingent upon, the
Master Lease, that this Mortgage will cover, among other things, such direct
leasehold interest of Copley in the Central Area Property pursuant to the terms
of the Central Area Sublease, and that Mortgagee shall have a valid first
mortgage lien on such direct leasehold interest of Copley in the Central Area
Property. Such Notice of Direct Lease shall include an assignment by UIDC to the
MTA of its interest as lessor under the Central Areas Sublease. In connection
with such collapse of such ground lease structure, Mortgagee, as existing
lender, will execute the Notice of Direct Lease to evidence its consent to such
collapse of the Master Lease pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the
Direct Leasing Agreement. Following the giving of the Notice of Direct Lease and
the

                                      -40-
<PAGE>
 
assignment of the Master Lease by UIDC to the MTA, UIDC shall automatically and
without the necessity of any further action by or instrument signed by Mortgagee
be released from its obligations under the Notes, Mortgage and all other Loan
Documents.

          (d) - Reference is made to that certain Massachusetts Turnpike
Authority Estoppel Certificate delivered to Mortgagee dated the date hereof (the
"Estoppel Certificate") with respect to the Marriott Garage Sublease.  Mortgagor
acknowledges and agrees that it will not request a Transfer (as defined in the
Estoppel Certificate) unless and until Mortgagor has received the prior written
approval of Mortgagee to same, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
and that if Mortgagee desires to request a Transfer, Mortgagor will also request
such a Transfer at the direction of Mortgagee.

individual assets from those of any affiliate or constituent party, any
Guarantor, or any affiliate of any constituent party or Guarantor, or any other
person.

each such general partner or SPC Member will at all times comply, and will cause
Copley to comply, with each of the representations, warranties and covenants
contained in this Section 3.15 as if such representation, warranty or covenant
was made directly by such general partner or SPC Member.

          (r)    Copley shall at all times cause there to be at least one (or
two if required by the Rating Agencies) duly appointed member of the board of
directors (an "Independent Director") of each SPC Member of Copley, as
applicable, reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee who shall not have been at the
time of such individual's appointment, and may not have been at any time during

attorney or counsel or employee of, Copley or any of its shareholders,
subsidiaries or affiliates, (ii) a customer of, or supplier to, Copley or any of

or affiliates, (iii) a person or other entity controlling or under common
control with any such shareholder, partner, supplier or customer, or (iv) a
Family Member of any such shareholder, officer, director, partner, employee,
supplier or customer. As used in this Section 3.15, the term "control" means the
possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the
direction of the management and policies of a person or entity, whether through
ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

          (s)    Copley shall not cause or permit the board of directors of the
SPC Member to take any action which, under the terms of any certificate of
incorporation, by-laws or any voting trust agreement with respect to any common
stock, requires the vote of the board of directors of the SPC Member, unless at
the time of such action there shall be at least one member who is an Independent
Director.

          (t)    Copley shall conduct its business so that the assumptions made
with respect to Copley in that certain opinion letter (the "Non-Consolidation

(i) complete plans and specifications for the Work which (A) have been approved
by all governmental authorities whose approval is required, (B) bear the signed
approval of an architect satisfactory to Mortgagee (the "Architect") and (C) are
accompanied by Architect's signed estimate of the total estimated cost of the
Work which plans and specifications shall be subject to Mortgagee's prior
approval (the "Approved Plans and Specifications"); (ii) the amount of money
which, as reasonably determined by Mortgagee, will be sufficient when added to
the Net Insurance Proceeds, if any, to pay the entire cost of the Restoration
(all such money as held by Mortgagee being herein collectively referred to as
the "Restoration Funds"); (iii) copies of all permits and approvals required by
law in connection with the commencement and conduct of the Work; (iv) a contract
for construction executed by Mortgagor and a contractor reasonably satisfactory
to Mortgagee (the "Contractor") in form, scope and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Mortgagee (including a provision for retainage) for performance
of the Work; and (v) if the work is in excess of $2,000,000, a surety bond for
and/or guarantee of payment for and completion of, the Work, which bond or
guarantee shall be (A) in form, scope and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee,
(B) signed by a surety or sureties, or guarantor or guarantors, as the case may

Architect's total estimated cost of completing the Work.

          (b) Mortgagor shall not commence any portion of the Work, other than

above.  After commencing the Work, Mortgagor shall perform or cause Contractor
to perform the Work diligently and in good faith in accordance with the Approved
Plans and Specifications, So long as there does not currently exist an Event of

subject to the following conditions, any of which Mortgagee may waive in its
sole discretion: (i) Architect shall be in charge of the Work; (ii) Mortgagee
shall make such payments directly or through escrow with a title company
selected by Mortgagor and approved by Mortgagee, only upon not less than ten
(10) days' prior written notice from Mortgagor to Mortgagee and Mortgagor's

<PAGE>
 
has been done in compliance with the Approved Plans and Specifications and in
accordance with all provisions of law, that the amount requested has been paid

that when added to all sums, if any, previously paid out by Mortgagee, the
requested amount does not exceed the value of the Work done to the date of such
certificate; (B) evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee that there are no
mechanic's or similar liens for labor or material supplied in connection with
the Work to date or that any such liens have been adequately provided for to
Mortgagee's satisfaction; and (C) evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee
that the balance of the Restoration Funds remaining after making the payments
shall be sufficient to pay the balance of the cost of the Work not completed to
date (giving in such reasonable detail as Mortgagee may require an estimate of
the cost of such completion).  Each Request for Payment shall be accompanied by
(x) waivers of liens satisfactory to Mortgagee covering that part of the Work
previously paid for, if any, (y) a search prepared by a title company or by
other evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that no mechanic's liens or other liens
or instruments for the retention of title in respect of any part of the Work

Leases or Leases containing such right to cancel, the Net Income, in the
reasonable opinion of Mortgagee, derived from the Property shall be no less than
1.0 times annual Debt Service; and (iv) Any Request for Payment after the
Restoration has been completed shall be accompanied by a copy of any certificate
or certificates required by law to render occupancy of the Improvements legal.

          (c) If (i) within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any damage
or destruction to the Property requiring Restoration, Mortgagor fails to submit
to Mortgagee and receive Mortgagee's approval of plans and specifications or
fails to deposit with Mortgagee the additional amount necessary to accomplish
the Restoration as provided in subparagraph (a) above, or (ii) within 30 days
after such plans and specifications are approved by all such governmental
authorities and Mortgagee, Mortgagor fails to commence and diligently continue
to completion the Restoration, or (iii) subject to Section 1.16 hereof,
Mortgagor becomes delinquent in payment to mechanics, materialmen or others for
the costs incurred in connection with the Restoration, then, in addition to all
of the rights herein set forth and after 10 business days' written notice of the
non-fulfillment of one or more of the foregoing conditions, Mortgagee may apply
the Restoration Funds then or thereafter held by Mortgagee to reduce the Secured

SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT
- -------------------------------------------------------

         THIS AGREEMENT, is dated as of the _________ day of________________,
1997, among METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, with an address of One
Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10010 (the "Mortgagee"),________________________,
with an address of ____________________________ (the "Tenant"), and COPLEY PLACE
ASSOCIATES,, LLC, with an address c/o Overseas Partners Capital Corp., 115
Perimeter Place, Suite 940, Atlanta, GA 30346 (the "Landlord").

WITNESSETH:

          WHEREAS, Tenant is the tenant under a certain lease dated as of
____________, 19____, as the same may have been or may be amended (the
"Lease"), between Tenant and Landlord, covering premises located at
__________________  Suffolk County, Boston, Massachusetts, as more particularly
described in Exhibit A (the "Premises") which Premises are a part of the mixed-
             ---------                                                        
use retail/office project known as Copley Place, Boston, Massachusetts (the
"Property"); and

          WHEREAS, Mortgagee has agreed to grant a loan to Landlord, which will
be secured by, among other things, a mortgage of the Premises (the "Mortgage")
and an assignment of rents and leases (the "Assignment"), both from Landlord to
Mortgagee, provided Tenant shall subordinate the tenant's interest in the Lease
and in the Premises as hereinafter provided.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the sum of ONE
DOLLAR ($1.00) by each party in hand paid to the other, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, it is hereby agreed as follows:

          1.  The Lease, the terms  thereof and all rights, options, liens or
charges created thereby, is and shall be subject and subordinate to the
Mortgage, the terms thereof and the lien created thereby insofar as it affects
the Premises and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements
and extensions thereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant agrees that
Mortgagee may at any time, at its election, execute and record in the Suffolk
County Registry of Deeds, a notice of subordination reciting that the Lease
shall be superior to the lien of the Mortgage.  From and after the recordation
of such notice of subordination the Lease shall be superior to the lien of the
Mortgage and shall not be extinguished by any foreclosure or sale thereunder.

          2.  Tenant agrees that it will attorn to and recognize Mortgagee upon
entry on the Premises for breach or default by Landlord under the Mortgage, any
purchaser at a foreclosure sale under the Mortgage, any transferee who acquires
the Premises by a deed in lieu or assignments in lieu of foreclosure, and the
successors and assigns of such purchasers (each of whom be referred to as a
"Foreclosure Purchaser"), as its landlord for the unexpired balance (and any
extensions, if exercised) of the term of the Lease, upon the same terms and
conditions set forth in the Lease except as otherwise specifically provided in
this Agreement. Alternatively, upon Mortgagee's or such Foreclosure Purchaser's
request, Tenant shall enter into a new lease with Mortgagee or such Foreclosure
Purchaser for such unexpired balance of

                                      F-1
<PAGE>
 
the term of the Lease, upon the same terms and conditions set forth -in the
Lease except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement.

          3.  If it should become necessary to foreclose the Mortgage or if
Mortgagee shall otherwise take control of the Premises or succeed to the
interest of Landlord under the Lease, Mortgagee shall recognize Tenant's rights
thereunder, and shall not terminate the Lease nor join Tenant in summary
proceedings so long as Tenant is not then currently in default under any of the
terms, covenants, or conditions of the Lease.

          4.  Tenant agrees that it shall give Mortgagee a copy of each notice
of default delivered to Landlord with respect to any default under the Lease,
such notice shall be delivered to Mortgagee in hand or sent by registered or
certified mail to the address of Mortgagee set forth in Section 6 hereof and at
                                                        -------                
the same time that such notice is delivered to Landlord.  Tenant further agrees
that if Landlord shall have failed to cure such default within the time provided
for in the Lease (including any applicable grace periods), the Mortgagee shall
have an additional 60 days within which to cure such default, or, if such
default cannot be cured within that period, then such additional time as may be
necessary to effect such a cure if within such 60-day period Mortgagee has
commenced and is diligently pursuing the remedies necessary to cure such default
(including, but not limited to, commencement of foreclosure proceedings, if
necessary to effect such cure); and Tenant agrees that the Lease shall not be
terminated while such remedies are being pursued.  Mortgagee shall in no event
be obliged to cure a default which is personal to Landlord, and therefore not
reasonably susceptible of cure by Mortgagee.

          5.  If Mortgagee shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under the
Lease, whether as Mortgagee in possession or otherwise, Mortgagee shall not be
(a) liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including Landlord);
(b) liable for the return of any security deposits (except such as have been
delivered to it); (c) subject to any offsets of defenses which Tenant might have
against any prior landlord (including Landlord); (d) bound by any rent or
additional rent which Tenant might have paid for more than the current month to
any prior landlord (including Landlord), except if such rent is delivered to
Mortgagee; (e) bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease made without
its consent except to the extent such amendment did not require the consent of
Mortgagee under the Mortgage and the Assignment; (f) bound by the consent of any
prior landlord (including Landlord) to any assignment or sublease of Tenant's
interest in the Lease made without also obtaining Mortgagee's prior written
consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld); (g) liable or have any
obligation with respect to the completion of any tenant improvements to the
Premises; or (h) personally liable for any default under the Lease or any
covenant on its part to be performed thereunder, as landlord, or pursuant to
this Agreement it being acknowledged that Tenant's sole remedy in the event of
such default shall be to proceed against Mortgagee's equity interest (if any) in
the Premises.

          6.  Tenant hereby acknowledges that the entire interest of Landlord in
and to the Lease is being assigned to Mortgagee pursuant to the terms of the
Assignment.  Tenant further acknowledges and agrees: (a) that the Lease cannot
be terminated by Landlord (either directly or by the exercise of any option
which could lead to termination) except in the event of a material default by
Tenant or modified in any of its terms (except to the extent such amendment did
not require the consent of Mortgagee under the Mortgage and the Assignment), or
consent be given to the release of any party having liability thereon by
Landlord, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, and without such
consent, no rent may be collected or accepted by Landlord more than one month in
advance; (b) that upon

                                      F-2
<PAGE>
 
notice from Mortgagee, whether or not Mortgagee shall have taken possession of
the Premises, Tenant shall pay all rent due under the Lease to Mortgagee at its
address set forth in the first paragraph hereof or to such other address as
Mortgagee shall specify; and (c) that any notice to be sent by Tenant to
Mortgagee shall be delivered in hand or sent by overnight express service,
registered or certified mail, addressed to Mortgagee at its address stated in
the first paragraph hereof.  Any notices to be sent by Mortgagee to Tenant shall
be delivered in hand or sent by overnight express service, registered or
certified mail, addressed to _______________________, _________________________,
Attention:  _______________________.

          7.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

          8.  By execution hereof, Landlord consents to the execution hereof by
Tenant and agrees that such execution is not and shall not be or cause a default
under the Lease.

          9.  This Agreement shall run with the land and shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and
permitted assigns.  A Foreclosure Purchaser shall be a successor and permitted
assignee of Mortgagee's rights and obligations under this Agreement.  If a
Foreclosure Purchaser acquires the Premises or if Mortgagee assigns and
transfers its interest in the Note and Mortgage or the Property of which the
Premises are a part, all obligations and liabilities of Mortgagee under this
Agreement shall terminate and be the responsibility of the Foreclosure Purchaser
or other party to whom Mortgagee's interest is assigned or transferred.  The
interest of Tenant under this Agreement may not be assigned or transferred
except in connection with an assignment of its interest in the Lease which has
been consented to by Mortgagee.

          2.  Assignor has not performed any act or executed any instrument
which would prevent Assignee from operating under any of the terms and
conditions hereof, or which would limit Assignee in such operation.

          3.  Except for security deposits, Assignor has not accepted rent under
the Lease for more than two months in advance of the current period for which
rent has already become due and payable.

          4.  Assignor has not executed or granted any modification or amendment
whatever of the Lease either orally or in writing except as set forth in
Schedule A, and that to Assignor's knowledge each Lease is in full force and
effect.

         11.  IT IS MUTUALLY AGREED WITH RESPECT TO EACH LEASE THAT:

          1. So long as there shall exist no Event of Default, Assignor shall
have the right to collect upon but not more than one month prior to accrual, all
rents, issues and profits from said demised premises and to retain, use and
enjoy the same and to enforce same in the sole name of Assignor.

          2.  Upon or at any time after an Event of Default, Assignee may
exercise all rights and remedies contained herein or in the Mortgage and without
regard for the adequacy of security for the Secured Indebtedness, either in
person or by agent with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a
receiver to be appointed by a court, enter upon, take possession of, manage and
operate said demised premises or any part thereof, make, enforce, modify, and
accept the surrender of, Leases, obtain and evict tenants, fix or modify rents,
and do any acts which Assignee deems proper to protect the security hereof, and
either with or without taking possession of said property, in its own name sue
for or otherwise collect and receive all rents, issues and profits, including
those past due and unpaid, and apply the same, less costs and expenses of
operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees, upon any Secured
Indebtedness, and in such order as Assignee may determine.  The entering upon
and taking possession of said property, the collection of such rents, issues and
profits and the

                                      -4-
<PAGE>
 
     the application thereof as aforesaid, shall not cure or waive any default
or waive, modify or affect notice of default under the Mortgage or invalidate
any act done pursuant to such notice.

          3.     Assignee shall not be obligated to perform or discharge, any
obligation, duty or liability under the Lease, or under or by reason of this
Assignment, and Assignor shall and does hereby agree to indemnify Assignee
against and hold it harmless from any and all liability, loss or damage (other
than consequential damages or that which results from Assignee's or its agent's
or receiver's gross negligence or willful disregard of its obligations
hereunder) which it may or might incur under the Lease or under or by reason of
this Assignment and of and from any and all claims and demands whatsoever which
may be asserted against it by reason of any alleged obligation or undertaking on
its part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants or agreements
contained in the Lease; should Assignee incur any such liability, loss or damage
under the Lease or under or by reason of this Assignment, or in the defense
against any such claims or demands, the amount thereof, including costs,
expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees, together with interest thereon as
provided in Section 3.10 of the Mortgage, shall be secured hereby and by the
Mortgage and Assignor shall reimburse Assignee therefor in accordance with
Section 3.10 of the Mortgage.

          III    IT IS FURTHER MUTUALLY AGREED THAT:

          1.     Until the Secured Indebtedness shall have been paid in full,
Assignor covenants and agrees to keep leased or to use its good faith efforts to
lease at a good and sufficient rental in accordance with the terms of Section 
1.10 of the Mortgage all the premises described in the Mortgage and upon demand
to transfer and assign to Assignee any and all subsequent Leases upon all or any
part of such premises upon the same or substantially the same terms and
conditions as are herein contained, and to make, execute and deliver to
Assignee, upon demand, any and all instruments that may be necessary or
desirable therefor, but the terms and provisions of this Assignment shall apply
to any such subsequent Lease whether or not so assigned and transferred.

          2.     Upon the payment in full of all Secured Indebtedness, as
evidenced by the recording or filing of an instrument of satisfaction or full
release of the Mortgage, unless there

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
 
shall have been recorded another mortgage or deed of trust in favor of Assignee
covering the whole or any part of the demised premises, this Assignment shall
become and be void and of no effect.  In such event, Assignee shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver such instrument of termination with respect to this
Assignment as shall be reasonably requested by Assignor.

          3.   This Assignment inures to the benefit of the named Assignee and
its successors and assigns, and binds Assignor and Assignor's heirs, legatees,
devisees, administrators, executors, successors and assigns.  The term "Lease"
as used herein means not only the Lease hereby assigned or any extension or
renewal thereof, but also any Lease subsequently executed by Assignor covering
the demised premises or any part thereof.  In this assignment, whenever the
context so requires, the neuter gender includes the masculine or feminine, and
the singular number includes the plural, and conversely.  All obligations of
each Assignor hereunder are joint and several.

          4.   All notices, demands or documents which are required or permitted
to be given or served hereunder shall be in writing and sent in the same manner
and to the same addresses and representatives of Assignor and Assignee as
provided in Section 4.02 of the Mortgage.

          5.   A written demand on any tenant by Assignee for payment of rent to
Assignee shall be sufficient warrant to said tenant to pay all rents, income,
issues and profits to Assignee without necessity for consent by Assignor or any
further evidence of a default by Assignor and notwithstanding any claim by
Assignor to the contrary, and Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs
and requires all tenants of the premises described in the Mortgage to honor this
Assignment of Lessor's Interest in Leases and comply with any such demand by
Assignee until further written notice by Assignee authorizing the tenant to
resume rent payments to Assignor.  Assignor shall have no claim against any
tenant for any amounts paid to Assignee hereunder.  Assignee shall not make such
a demand for rents, income, issues and profits unless and until an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

          6.   Upon request from Assignee, Assignor shall provide to Assignee,
at no cost to Assignee, copies of all executed Leases now or hereafter affecting
the premises described in the Mortgage.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>
 
          7.   All commissions and fees arising out of, or connected with, the
Lease shall be subordinate to the Mortgage and to this Assignment.

          8.   Upon demand, Assignor agrees, if legally permissible, to assign
and transfer to Assignee as additional security for the Loan all security
deposits field by Assignor pursuant to the Lease.

          9.   This Assignment is to be construed and enforced in all respects
in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

          10.  In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Assignment
and those of the Mortgage, the terms of the Mortgage shall govern.

          11.  The liability of Assignor hereunder shall be subject to the
same limitations (and exceptions to such limitations) as apply to Mortgagor
under Section 1.17 of the Mortgage.

          12.  ASSIGNOR HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE TRANSACTION EVIDENCED
HEREBY IS A COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION.  ASSIGNOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY (A) SUBMITS TO PERSONAL JURISDICTION IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF
MASSACHUSETTS OVER ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THIS AGREEMENT, AND (B) WAIVES ANY AND ALL PERSONAL RIGHTS UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY
STATE (1) TO OBJECT TO JURISDICTION WITHIN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS OR
VENUE IN ANY PARTICULAR FORUM WITHIN THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS
(INCLUDING FEDERAL COURTS HAVING JURISDICTION IN THE COMMONWEALTH), AND (II) TO
THE RIGHT, IF ANY, TO CLAIM OR RECOVER ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN ACTUAL DAMAGES.  ASSIGNOR AGREES
THAT, IN ADDITION TO ANY METHODS OF SERVICE OF PROCESS PROVIDED FOR UNDER
APPLICABLE LAW, ALL SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING
MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, DIRECTED
TO ASSIGNOR AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE (OR SUCH DIFFERENT ADDRESS PROVIDED
IN THE MANNER SET FORTH FOR THE GIVING OF NOTICES UNDER THIS INSTRUMENT), AND
SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE COMPLETE UPON RECEIPT OR REJECTION OF RECEIPT OF THE
NOTICE.  ASSIGNOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL
RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JURISDICTION AND IN ANY COURT WITH RESPECT TO,
IN CONNECTION WITH, OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE OBLIGATIONS, THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY CLAIM OR DISPUTE

                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 
HOWSOEVER ARISING, BETWEEN ASSIGNOR AND ASSIGNEE. THIS WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL
SHALL BE EFFECTIVE FOR EACH AND EVERY DOCUMENT EXECUTED BY ASSIGNOR OR ASSIGNEE,
AND DELIVERED TO ASSIGNEE OR ASSIGNOR, AS THE CASE MAY BE, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH
DOCUMENT SHALL CONTAIN A WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. ASSIGNOR FURTHER CONFIRMS THAT
THE FOREGOING WAIVERS ARE INFORMED AND FREELY MADE.

     13.  The provisions of Section 1.17 of the Mortgage are incorporated
herein by reference as if herein set forth in full and shall be fully applicable
to this instrument.

     14.  This Assignment may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so
executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which together
shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

     THIS ASSIGNMENT, made this 30th day of July, 1997 by COPLEY PLACE
ASSOCIATES LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, with a principal address
c/o Overseas Partners Capital Corp., 115 Perimeter Center Place, Suite 940,

                              --------------------
                                        
     THAT Assignor, for good and valuable consideration, receipt and sufficiency
of which is hereby acknowledged, does hereby grant, transfer and assign to
Assignee for and in respect of the property described in Exhibit "A" attached
hereto and made a part hereof and the improvements thereon (the "Property") a
security interest in and also hereby assigns, transfers and sets over to
Assignee (to the extent assignable as to governmental permits) all of Assignor's
right title and interest in and to all contracts, licenses, permits, agreements,
warranties and approvals now owned or hereafter acquired by Assignor (such
contracts, licenses, permits, agreements, warranties and approvals, as are now
so owned or hereafter acquired are referred to herein as the "Contracts").  For
the purposes of this instrument, the term "Contracts" shall include, without
limitation, all of Assignor's right, title and interest in and to the Management
Agreements (as defined in the Mortgage referred to in paragraph (b) below).

     The following sets forth the obligations and instruments secured by this
Collateral Assignment and Security Agreement:


     (a)  Payment of Assignor's and Urban Investment and Development Co.'s
     ("UIDC") debt (the "Loan") to Assignee in the original principal sum of ONE
     HUNDRED NINETY-FIVE MILLION and 00/100 Dollars ($195,000,000.00) (the "Loan
     Amount") evidenced by a certain Class A Promissory Note in the original
     principal amount of $95,000,000.00, made by Assignor and UIDC to
     Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, of even date herewith ("Class A Note")
     and a certain Class B Promissory Note in the original principal amount of
     $95,000,000.00, made by Assignor and UIDC to Metropolitan Life Insurance
     Company, of even date herewith ("Class B Note") (the Class A Note and the
     Class B Note being hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Notes");

     (b)  Payment and performance of all liabilities and obligations of Assignor
          and UIDC to Assignee under that certain Leasehold Mortgage, Security
          Agreement
<PAGE>
 
          and Fixture Financing Statement (the "Mortgage") which, among other
          things, secures the Notes and is of even date herewith;

     (c)  Payment and performance of all liabilities and obligations of Assignor
          and/or UIDC to Assignee under the terms of any other document or
          instrument now or hereafter executed or delivered in connection with
          the Loan; and

     (d)  Performance of all conditions and obligations contained in this
          Assignment.

 
     The aforesaid obligations, agreements and instruments shall be collectively
referred to herein as the "Secured Obligations and Instruments".

This Assignment is made and accepted upon the following terms and conditions:

     1.  Assignor hereby agrees (i) to perform in a timely manner in all
material respects all its obligations, covenants, conditions and agreements
under the Contracts and (ii) to use all reasonable efforts to enforce
performance by each other party thereto of each and every obligation, covenant,
condition and agreement to be performed by such other party under the Contracts.
Assignor shall not suffer or permit any default on its part to exist under the
Secured Obligations and Instruments to continue beyond applicable cure periods,
if any (such a default which is not cured within applicable cure periods, if
any, being referred to herein as a "Default").  So long as no Default shall
exist, Assignor shall have all the rights as the holder thereof in and with
respect to the Contracts as may be lawfully permitted.

    2.  Immediately upon the occurrence of any Default, the right described in
the foregoing paragraph 1 hereof shall cease and terminate (subject to the
provisions of Section 3.13 of the Mortgage and the Estoppel and Subordination
Agreements of even date herewith ("E.S.A.'s") with respect to the Management
Agreements), and in such event Assignee is hereby expressly and irrevocably
authorized, but not required, to exercise every right, option, power or
authority inuring to Assignor under any one or more of the Contracts as fully as
Assignor could itself.

     Further, and without limitation of the foregoing remedies, upon the
occurrence of any Default, Assignee shall have the rights and remedies of a
secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code, as enacted in the Commonwealth
of Massachusetts, for each and every Contract, in addition to the rights and
remedies otherwise provided for by law or in equity or in any other agreement
between the parties or under any guaranty of Assignor's obligations, including
without limitation, all rights and remedies.  Assignee shall give Assignor 10
days' prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of any such
Contract or the time after which any private sale or any other intended
disposition is to be made.  After deducting all expenses incurred in connection
with the enforcement of its rights hereunder, Assignee shall cause the proceeds
of the Contracts to be applied to the payment of principal or interest on
Assignor's indebtedness to Assignee in such order as Assignee may determine, and
Assignor shall remain liable for any deficiency.
<PAGE>
 
     3.  Assignor hereby irrevocably directs the grantor or licensor of or the
contracting party to any such Contract to the extent not prohibited by such
Contract and under any recognition or other agreement, if any, executed by such
grantor, licensor or contracting party, upon demand of Assignee and after notice
from Assignee of Assignor's Default (but subject to Section 3.13 of the Mortgage
and the E.S.A.'s), to recognize and accept Assignee as the holder of such
Contract for any and all purposes as fully as it would recognize and accept
Assignor and the performance of Assignor thereunder, without any obligation on
the part of any such grantor, licensor or contracting party to determine whether
a Default has in fact occurred.

     4.  Assignor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Assignee harmless against
and from all liability, loss, damage (excluding consequential damages) and
reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, which it may or shall
incur by reason of this Assignment, or by reason of any action taken in good
faith by Assignee in the exercise of its rights hereunder, and against and from
any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Assignee
by reason of any alleged obligation or undertaking on its part to perform or
discharge any of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Contracts.
Should Assignee incur any such liability, loss, damage or expense (other than
that which results from Assignee's or its agent's gross negligence or its
willful disregard of its obligations hereunder), the amount thereof, together
with interest thereon at the Default Rate of interest under the Notes, shall be
payable by Assignor to Assignee immediately upon demand, or, at the option of
Assignee, Assignee may reimburse itself therefor out of any receipts, rents,
income or profits of the Property collected by Assignee before the application
of such receipts, rents, income or profits to any other obligation of Assignor
hereunder or under the Secured Obligations and Instruments.

     5.  Nothing contained herein shall operate or be construed to obligate
Assignee to perform any of the terms, covenants or conditions contained in the
Contracts or otherwise to impose any obligation upon Assignee with respect to
the Contracts prior to written notice by Assignee to Assignor of Assignee's
election to assume Assignor's obligations under one or more of the Contracts.
Prior to said election this Assignment shall not operate to place upon Assignee
any responsibility for the operation, control, care, management or repair of the
Property or for the payment, performance or observance of any obligation,
requirement or condition under any such Contract pursuant to the terms hereof or
under any agreement in respect to any such Contract, and the execution of this
Assignment by Assignor shall constitute conclusive evidence that all
responsibility for the operation, control, care, management and repair of the
Property as well as the payment, performance or observance of any obligation,
requirement or condition under the Contracts is and shall be that of Assignor,
prior to such election.

     6.   Assignor represents and warrants to Assignee that (i) it lawfully
holds the rights and interests of Assignor in the Contracts, (ii) it has the
right to assign to Assignee its interest under each said Contract, as of the
date hereof, (iii) it has received all necessary consents and approvals to such
assignment and has not sold, assigned, transferred, mortgaged or pledged any
such right or interest under the Contracts to any person other than Assignee
that will not
<PAGE>
 
be released on the funding of the Loan, and (iv) it is not in default of any of
its obligations under the Contract which exist as of the date of execution
hereof and is not aware of any defaults of any other parties of any of their
obligations under such Contracts.  Assignor shall not, without the prior written
consent of Assignee, sell, assign, transfer, mortgage or pledge any Contract or
any such right or interest under any Contract.

     7.  Assignor agrees to execute and deliver to Assignee, at any time or
times during which this Assignment shall be in effect, such further instruments
as Assignee reasonably may deem necessary to make effective this Assignment, the
security interest created hereby and the several covenants of Assignor herein
contained.  To evidence such security interest, at the request of Assignee,
Assignor shall, in a form satisfactory to Assignee, join with Assignee in
executing one or more financing statements, and any continuation thereof,
pursuant to the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in
Massachusetts, and shall pay the cost for filing thereof.  Further, promptly
upon any Contract coming into existence after the date hereof, Assignor agrees
to deliver a copy thereof to Assignee, together with any consent or recognition
agreement related thereto which Assignee may require.

     8.  Failure of Assignee to avail itself of any of the terms, covenants and
conditions of this Assignment for any period of time or at any time or times,
shall not be construed or deemed to be a waiver of any of its rights hereunder.
The rights and remedies of Assignee under this instrument are cumulative and are
not in lieu of but are in addition to any other rights and remedies which
Assignee shall have under or by virtue of the Secured Obligations and
Instruments.  The rights and remedies of Assignee hereunder may be exercised
from time to time and as often as such exercise is deemed expedient by Assignee.

     9.  Assignee shall have the right to assign to any subsequent holder of any
of the Secured Obligations and Instruments or to any person acquiring title to
the Property, the Contracts and all the right, title, interest, power and
authority of Assignor in, under and by virtue of the Contracts hereby or
hereafter assigned, subject, however, to the provisions of this Assignment, the
Contracts and any agreement collateral thereto.

    10.  Upon full payment of the Secured Obligations, this Assignment shall
terminate and, in that event, upon the request of Assignor, Assignee covenants
to execute and deliver to Assignor instruments effective to evidence the
termination of this Assignment and the reassignment to Assignor of the Contracts
and the rights, title, interest, power and authority assigned herein; provided,
however, that, as to Assignor, any affidavit, certificate or other written
statement of any officer of Assignee, stating that any part of said indebtedness
remains unpaid, shall be and constitute conclusive evidence of the then
validity, effectiveness and continuing force of this Assignment and any person,
firm or corporation receiving any such affidavit, certificate or statement may,
and is hereby authorized to, rely thereon.

                               ------------------


THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT (hereinafter referred to as this "Guaranty'), dated as

respect to the making by Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of a mortgage loan
(hereinafter referred to as the "Loan") in the amount of One Hundred Ninety-Five

          WHEREAS, the Loan is evidenced by that certain Class A Promissory Note
in the principal amount of $97,500,000.00, dated as of the date hereof, made by
Borrower and payable to the order of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (the
"Class A Note") and that certain Class B Promissory Note in the principal amount

          WHEREAS, in order to induce MetLife to enter into the Commitment and
make the Loan to Borrower, as aforesaid, Borrower agreed that Guarantor would

          WHEREAS, MetLife was so willing to enter into the Commitment and make

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
 
          NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00) and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, and in order to induce Met]Life to make the Loan to
Borrower, as aforesaid, Guarantor hereby agrees for the benefit of MetLife, and
its successors and assigns, as follows:

          1. Guarantor, as primary obligor and not merely as a surety, hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to MetLife the punctual and complete
performance and observance by Copley of the Recourse Obligations (as hereinafter
defined). Guarantor further agrees to pay to MetLife the Collection Costs (as
hereinafter defined) with respect to the enforcement of any rights or remedies
against Guarantor under this Guaranty. For purposes hereof, the term "Recourse
Obligations" means the obligations of Copley arising in connection with the
matters set forth in clauses (i) to (v), inclusive, of Section 1. 17(b) of the
Mortgage and the obligations of Copley under that certain Unsecured Indemnity
Agreement of even date herewith from Copley to MetLife (the "Unsecured Indemnity
Agreement").

          The intent and purpose of this document is to memorialize the
agreement of Guarantor to be primarily and personally liable on account of the
Recourse Obligations. For convenience of reference, however, the undersigned is
sometimes herein referred to as the "Guarantor" and the undertakings of the
undersigned set forth in this instrument utilize terminology applicable to
guaranties. Such usage shall not derogate from the intention of Guarantor to be
primarily and personally liable for the Recourse Obligations.

          2. In the event that the Recourse Obligations are not fully and
punctually performed and observed in accordance with the terms and provisions of
the Loan Documents,


                                      -3-
<PAGE>
 
then after the expiration of applicable notice and grace periods provided for in
the Loan Documents, (a) Guarantor shall cause the same to be performed and
observed; and (b) Guarantor shall pay all reasonable expenses incurred by
MetLife in enforcing its rights under this Guaranty, including, without
limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and disbursements and all other
reasonable expenses incurred by MetLife in any collection and/or other
proceeding relating thereto (all of the foregoing expenses being herein
collectively referred to as the "Collection Costs"). There shall be no
requirement that MetLife, in order to enforce such payment by Guarantor, first
institute suit or exhaust its remedies against Borrower or against any other
party which may be similarly liable, or to enforce any rights against any
collateral which shall have been given to secure such performance.

          3. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by Guarantor
hereunder, as long as any of the Recourse Obligations remain outstanding,
Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of MetLife
against Copley or any collateral security, guaranty or right of offset held by
MetLife for the performance of the Recourse Obligations by Copley, nor (as long
as any of the Recourse Obligations remain outstanding) shall Guarantor seek any
reimbursement from Copley in respect of payments made by Guarantor hereunder.
Guarantor hereby releases any rights that it may have to contribution or
indemnification from Copley as long as any of the Recourse Obligations remain
outstanding. In the event that Copley is now or shall hereafter become indebted
to Guarantor, the amount of such indebtedness and all interest thereon shall at
all times be subject and subordinate as to priority of lien, time of payment,
and in all other respects, to all sums at any time owing to MetLife hereunder or
under any of the Loan Documents, and, as long as any of the Recourse

                                      -4-
<PAGE>
 
Obligations remain outstanding, Guarantor shall not assert any right of
enforcement or receive payment on account of such other indebtedness, and any
sums so received by Guarantor shall, as long as any of the Recourse Obligations
remain outstanding, be held in trust for MetLife and promptly paid over to
MetLife, provided nothing contained in this Guaranty shall impair the right of
Guarantor to receive all distributions to Members under and pursuant to the
Operating Agreement of Borrower (other than distributions, if any, representing
repayment of debt owed by Borrower to any such Member) provided that no Event of
Default has occurred and no Recourse Obligation shall be then due and owing.

          4. This Guaranty is and shall be construed as a continuing, absolute,
irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment and performance, and not
merely a guaranty of collection, without regard to the validity or
enforceability of any of the Loan Documents or the viability of Borrower as a
duly organized and validly existing legal entity, and no set-off, counterclaim,
recoupment, reduction, or diminution of any obligation, or any defense of any
kind or nature which Borrower may have against MetLife or any other party, or
which Guarantor may have against Borrower, MetLife, or any other party, in
bankruptcy or in any other instance, shall be available to, or shall be asserted
by, Guarantor against MetLife.


          5. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and be binding
in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon Guarantor and its
successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of MetLife and its
successors and assigns (but excluding any such successor or assign not
affiliated with MetLife which acquires title to the Property (as defined in the
Mortgage) but was not a holder of either of the Notes). Guarantor's obligations
under

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
 
this Guaranty are in addition to (and in no way shall be construed to diminish)
the rights and remedies available to MetLife against Borrower under the Loan
Documents, at law and/or in equity.

          If, for any reason, any payment to MetLife of any of the Recourse
Obligations to which this Guaranty is applicable is required to be refunded to
Copley or paid over to any other party, including, without limitation, by reason
of the operation of bankruptcy laws now or hereafter enacted, Guarantor agrees
to pay to MetLife, on demand of MetLife, the amount so required to be paid over
by MetLife, and the Recourse Obligations of Guarantor shall not be treated as
having been discharged by reason of a payment to MetLife which gives rise to the
obligation of MetLife to repay the same. This Guaranty shall be treated as
having remained in full force and effect for any such repayment so required to
be made and made by MetLife, as well as any amount not theretofore paid to
MetLife on account of such Recourse Obligations of Guarantor.

          At any public or private sale of any security or collateral for the
Recourse Obligations or any part thereof, whether by foreclosure or otherwise,
MetLife may, in its discretion, purchase all or any part of such security or
collateral so sold or offered for sale for its own account and may apply against
the amount bid therefor the balance due it pursuant to Loan Documents without
prejudice to MetLife's remedies hereunder against Guarantor for deficiencies.


          6.     Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that:

                                      -6-
<PAGE>
 
          (a) Guarantor has the power and authority to execute, deliver, and
perform its obligations under this Guaranty, and that this Guaranty constitutes
the legal, valid, and binding obligation of Guarantor, enforceable against
Guarantor in accordance with its terms;

          (b) the execution, delivery, and performance by Guarantor of this
Guaranty does not and will not: (i) violate or conflict with any law, rule, or
regulation, or any order, writ, injunction, or decree of any court, arbitrator
or governmental authority or agency to which Guarantor is subject; (ii) conflict
with, result in a breach of, constitute a default under, or result in the
imposition of any lien upon any assets of Guarantor pursuant to the provisions
of, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement or any other
instrument or agreement to which Guarantor or its respective assets are bound;
and (iii) result in a breach or violation of the terms and provisions of the
operating agreement pursuant to which Borrower was formed, or any amendments
thereto, or any other agreement to which Guarantor is a party;

          (c) no consent of any other person, and no consent, license, permit,
approval or authorization of, exemption by, notice or report to, or
registration, filing or declaration with, any governmental authority, bureau or
agency, is required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance,
validity or enforceability of this Guaranty;

          (d) Guarantor has, independently and without reliance upon MetLife,
and based upon such documents and information as Guarantor has deemed
appropriate, made its own analysis and decision to enter into this Guaranty.
Furthermore, Guarantor has adequate means to obtain from Copley, on a continuing
basis, information concerning the financial


                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 
condition and assets of Copley, and Guarantor is not relying upon MetLife to
provide (and MetLife shall have no duty to provide) any such information to
Guarantor, either now or in the future; and

          (e) no litigation, arbitration, investigation or administrative
proceeding of or before any court, arbitrator or governmental authority, bureau
or agency is currently pending or, to the knowledge of Guarantor, threatened (i)
with respect to this Guaranty or any of the transactions contemplated by this
Guaranty, or (ii) against or affecting Guarantor, or any of its property or
assets, which, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on
the business, operations, assets or condition, financial or otherwise, of
Guarantor.

          7. Except as otherwise specifically provided or specifically permitted
in the Mortgage, Guarantor covenants and agrees, as long as the Loan, or any
part thereof, is outstanding, that Guarantor will at all times remain a member
of Borrower, as and to the same extent required by the applicable terms,
provisions, covenants and conditions of the Loan Documents.

          8. JMB has delivered to Lender an audited statement of its financial
condition as of December 31, 1996 and OPCC has delivered to Lender a certified
unaudited statement of its financial condition as of March 31, 1997 ("Financial
Statement"). By no later than April 30 for OPCC and June 30 for JMB, of each
year during the term of the Loan, Guarantor shall deliver to MetLife a current
Financial Statement for Guarantor reporting its financial condition as of the
close of the previous calendar year. All required Financial Statements shall. be
prepared by a certified public accountant (or firm of certified public


                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 
accountants) reasonably acceptable to MetLife and shall be certified by
Guarantor to be a true, correct and complete statement of its financial position
and net worth. Such Financial Statement shall be prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.

          9. The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of
the Loan (and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against
Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is
brought against Borrower or whether Borrower has been joined in any such action
or actions), and the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be
absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

          (a)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any of the Loan
Documents;

          (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of the Loan, or
any other change or modification in or of any terms, provisions, covenants or
conditions of any or all of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation,
any increase in the Loan resulting from the extension of additional credit to
Borrower, the granting of any indulgence to Borrower or otherwise;

          (c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral,
or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from
any other guaranty for all or any of the Loan, or, except as otherwise
specifically set forth herein, any sale or transfer by Borrower of the Property,
or any of the other collateral encumbered by any of the Loan Documents (without
implying that MetLife has consented or will consent to any such sale or
transfer);



                                      -9-
<PAGE>
 
          (d) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to
all or any of the Loan, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any
collateral for all or any of the Loan or any other assets of Borrower;

          (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the existence of
Borrower;

          (f) the relief, modification, impairment, change or limitation of the
Recourse Obligations by operation of law or otherwise (including, without
limitation, in connection with proceedings under the bankruptcy laws now or
hereafter enacted), Guarantor hereby waiving all suretyship defenses and other
defenses in the nature thereof; or

          (g) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense
available to, or discharge of, Borrower.

          10. Guarantor hereby waives notice of any default under the Loan
Documents (except that MetLife will simultaneously provide to Guarantor a copy
of any notice MetLife provides to Copley with respect to the obligations covered
by this Guaranty, provided the failure to deliver such notice shall not affect
the obligations and liability of Guarantor to MetLife under this Guaranty),
demand of payment, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, presentment, notice of
protest, notice of dishonor, notice of the incurring by Borrower of additional
indebtedness, and all other notices and demands with respect to the Loan and
this Guaranty by MetLife and/or Borrower, and all suretyship defenses or other
defenses in the nature thereof.



                                      -10-
<PAGE>
 
          11. No failure to exercise, and no delay on the part of MetLife in
exercising, any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege by MetLife preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the

     Section 4.3. Positive Memorandum Account-Balance Distributions.
                  --------------------------------------------------

     A.  One Positive Memorandum Account Balance.  Subject to Section 4.3B
         ---------------------------------------                          
below, one- half (1/2) of all Distributable Cash shall first be distributed, in
preference and priority to any other distribution of Distributable Cash to a
Member having a Positive Memorandum Account Balance, until the Memorandum
Account of such Member shall no longer have a Positive Memorandum Account
Balance.

     B.  Two Positive Memorandum Account Balances.  If at any time there shall
         ----------------------------------------                             
exist a Positive Memorandum Account Balance with respect to a Member, and the
other Member then makes a Discretionary Capital Contribution such that the
second Member would also have a Positive Memorandum Account Balance, then the
following clauses (1) through (3) shall apply, and the Positive Memorandum
Account Balances of all Members shall be deemed netted out in accordance
therewith.  For purposes of the following, the Positive Memorandum Account
Balances shall be deemed netted out in accordance with clauses (1) through (3)
below immediately following creation of the Positive Memorandum Account Balance
for the second Member:

     (1) First:  The Positive Memorandum Account Balance of the
         ------                                                
Independent Member shall be deemed to be the Positive Memorandum Account Balance
of the Managing Member, and, solely for purposes of the calculations required
under this Section 4.3.B., the Independent Member shall be deemed to have a
Positive Memorandum Account Balance of zero.

     (2) Second: The Positive Memorandum Account Balance of the Managing
         -------                                                        
Member (recalculated pursuant to clause (1) above) and of the Non-Managing
Member shall be multiplied by the Company Percentage of the other Member. The
product derived therefrom is hereinafter referred to as the "Memorandum Account
Product." The Member with the greater Memorandum Account Product, if any, is
hereinafter referred to as the "Remaining Memorandum Account Member," and the
Member with the lesser Memorandum Account Product, if any, is hereinafter
referred to as the "Eliminated Memorandum Account Member." The positive
difference, if any, between the Members' respective Memorandum Account Products
is hereinafter referred to as the "Remaining Memorandum Account Balance,"

     (3) Third: If, at any given time the Members' respective Memorandum Account
         ------                                                                 
Products arc equal, then each Member shall as of such time be deemed to have a
zero balance in its Memorandum Account.

                                       13
<PAGE>
 
     (4) Fourth: If at any given time the Members' respective Memorandum Account
         -------                                                                
Products are not equal, then (a) the Remaining Memorandum Account Member shall
be deemed as of such time to have a Positive memorandum Account Balance equal to
the quotient of the remaining Memorandum Account)Balance divided by the Company
Percentage of the Eliminated Memorandum Account Member (provided, however, that
if the Eliminated Memorandum Account Member is the Managing -Member, the
Managing Member's Company Percentage shall be deemed to include the Company
Percentage of the Independent Member), and (b) the Eliminated Memorandum Account
Member shall be deemed as of such time to have, a Memorandum Account balance of
zero.  Thereafter, one-half (1/2) of all Distributable Cash shall first be
distributed, in preference and priority to any other distribution of
Distributable Cash, to the Member having a Positive Memorandum Account Balance,
until the Memorandum Account of such Member shall no longer have a Positive
Memorandum Account Balance.  In the event that the member having a Positive
Memorandum Account Balance pursuant to this Section 4.3B is the Managing Member,
then an amount of the Distributable Cash that is otherwise to be distributed to
the Managing Member pursuant to the prior sentence of this Section 4.3B equal to
the ratio that the Positive Memorandum Account Balance of the, Independent
Member, if any, that is deemed to be the Positive Memorandum Account Balance of
the Managing Member pursuant to clause (1) above bears to the Positive
Memorandum Account Balance, if any, of the Managing Member, shall be distributed
to the Independent Member.

     Without limitation of the foregoing, the following examples illustrate
application of the formula set forth in Section 4.3B above.

     Example #l
     ----------

     The Managing Member and the Independent Member each make a Deficiency
Contribution of $990,000 and 10,000, respectively, and the Non-Managing Member
immediately thereafter makes a Deficiency Contribution of $500,000.  The
Independent Member's Positive Memorandum Account Balance of $10,000 is deemed to
be the Positive Memorandum Account Balance of the Managing Member and thus the
Managing Member has a Positive Memorandum Account Balance of $1,000,000, and
the Non-Managing Member has a Positive Memorandum Account Balance of $500,000.
The Management Member's Memorandum Account Product is therefore equal to
$333,333.33 (i.e., $1,000,000 x 1/3), and the Non-Managing Member's Memorandum
Account Product is therefore also equal to $333,333.33(i.e.,$500,000 x 2/3)-
Because the Members respective Memorandum Account Products are equal, each
Member, including the Independent Member, shall be deemed to have a zero balance
in its Memorandum Account as of such time.

     Example #2
     ----------

The Managing Member and the Independent Member each make a Deficiency
Contribution of $990,000 and $ 10,000, respectively, and the Non-Managing Member

                                       14
<PAGE>
 
immediately thereafter also makes a Deficiency Contribution of $1,000,000.  The
Independent Member's Positive Memorandum Account Balance of $10,000 is deemed to
be the Positive Memorandum Account Balance of the Managing Member and thus the
Managing Member has a Positive Memorandum Account Balance of $ 1,000,000, the
Non-Managing Member also has a Positive Memorandum Account Balance of $1,000,000
and the Independent Member shall be deemed to have a Positive Memorandum Account
Balance of zero.  The Managing Member's Memorandum Account Product is therefore
equal to $333,333-33 $1,000,000 x 1/3), and the Non-Managing Member's Memorandum
Account Product is therefor e equal to $666,666.66 (i.e,, $1,000,000 x 2/3).
The "Remaining Memorandum Account Balance" is therefore $333,333.33 (i.e., the
positive difference between $666,666,66 and $333,333,33).  The Non-Managing
Member is the Member with the greater Memorandum Account Product, and is
therefore the "Remaining Memorandum Account Member." The Managing Member is the
Member with the lesser Memorandum Account Product and is therefore the
"Eliminated Memorandum Account Member." Thus, the Non-Managing Member shall be
deemed as of such time to have a Positive Memorandum Account Balance equal to
$500,000 (i.e., the Remaining Memorandum Account Balance of $333,333.33, divided
by 2/3 [the Company Percentage of the Eliminated Memorandum Account Member)],
and the Managing Member shall be deemed to have a Memorandum Account balance of
zero.

     Example #3
     ----------

The Managing Member and the Independent Member each make a Deficiency
Contribution of $1,980,000 and $20,000, respectively, and the Non-Managing
Member immediately thereafter makes a Deficiency Contribution of $500,000.  The
Independent Member's Positive Memorandum Account Balance of $20,000 is deemed to
be the Positive Memorandum Account Balance of the Managing Member and thus the
Managing Member has a Positive Memorandum Account Balance of $2,000,000, the
Non-Managing Member has a Positive Memorandum Account Balance of $500,000 and
the Independent Member shall be deemed to have a Positive Memorandum Account
Balance of zero.  The Managing Member's Memorandum Account Product is therefore
equal to $666,666.66 (i.e., $2,000,000 x 113) and the Non-Managing Members
Memorandum Account Product is therefore equal to $333,333.33 (i.e., $500,000 x
2/3).  The "Remaining Memorandum Account Balance" is therefore $333,333.33
(i.e., the positive difference between $666,666.66 and $333,333,33).  The
Managing Member is the Member with the greater Memorandum Account Product, and
is therefore the "Remaining Memorandum Account Member." The Non-Managing Member
is the Member with the lesser Memorandum Account Product and is therefore the
"Eliminated Memorandum Account Member." Thus, the Managing Member shall be
deemed as of such time to have a Positive Memorandum Account Balance equal to
$999,999.99 (i.e-, Remaining Memorandum Account Balance of $333,333.33, divided
by 1/3 [the Company Percentage of the Eliminated Memorandum Account Member]) and
the Non-Managing Member shall be deemed to have a Memorandum Account Balance of
zero.  Upon the distribution of Distributable Cash to the Managing Member
pursuant to Section 4.3 .B., an amount equal to 1% of the amount distributable
to the Managing Member (i,e., the ratio of the Deficiency

                   ARTICLE VI TRANSFER OF COMPANY INTERESTS.
                   -----------------------------------------

     Section 6. 1.   Restrictions on Transfer.
                     ------------------------ 

     A.   Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 6. 1, no sale,
assignment, transfer, encumbrance or hypothecation shall be made by a Member of
the whole or any part of its Company interest (including its interest in the
capital or profits of the Company) without the prior written consent of the
other Member,

     B.   No sale, assignment, transfer, encumbrance, hypothecation or issuance
in violation of the provisions hereof shall be valid or effective for any
purpose, and no consent to one or more of the same shall be deemed consent to
any other of the same.

     C.   So long as any obligations of the Company under the Loan and the
Mortgage remain outstanding, no transfer of any direct or indirect ownership
interest in the Company such that either (i) the transferee becomes the owner of
more than a 49% interest in the Company, or (ii) the transferee is an affiliate
or a family member of a transferor which owned more than a 49% interest in the
Company before such transfer, may be made unless, prior to the consummation of
such transfer, the Company has caused to be delivered to the Lender and to any
applicable Rating Agency an acceptable non-consolidation opinion concerning, as
applicable, the Company, the new transferee and/or their respective owners.

     Section 6.2.    Effect of Assignment Documents.  In the event of any sale,
                     ------------------------------                            
assignment or transfer permitted hereunder, the Company shall not be dissolved
or wound up but instead shall continue as before, with, however, the addition
or substitution of such new Member. No such sale, assignment or transfer shall
relieve the assignor from any of its obligations under this Agreement without
the prior written consent of all Members (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld as to obligations assumed by an assignee provided, among
other matters, the assignment is permitted hereunder and the Managing Member are
reasonably

                                       27

<PAGE>
 
satisfied that the assignee is sufficiently creditworthy to timely satisfy such
obligation). Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a condition to any sale or
assignment by a Member, the transferee or assignee must execute and deliver to
the other Member an assumption (in form reasonably satisfactory to all Members)
of all the obligations of the assignee under this Agreement arising from and
after the date of such assignment.

     Section 6.3.   Permitted Assignments.. Notwithstanding the provisions of
                    ----------------------                                   
Section 6.1 hereof, either Member may, with the consent of the other Member
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign or transfer in
whole (but not in part) its Company interest (including, but not limited to, its
interest in the capital or profits of the Company), at any time to an Affiliate
of a Member (and in the event of such assignment, the transferor shall remain
liable for the obligations and liabilities hereunder in the same manner and to
the same extent as if such assignment had not been made), Overseas hereby
consents to the transfer of JMB's interest to Urban Shopping Centers, L.P. or
to a limited partnership of which the sole general partner is and shall remain
Urban Shopping Centers, Inc. (or its wholly owned subsidiary) and the sole
limited partner in which is and shall remain Urban Shopping Centers, L.P. In
addition, either Member may assign or transfer its Company Membership interest
in whole (but not in part) to an entity which is not an Affiliate of such
Member, provided all of the following conditions are met: (1) the non-
transferring Member must have approved of the transferee, (ii) the transferor
must have complied with the provisions of Section 6,4 below (the right of first
refusal there-in set forth), (iii) the purchase price payable for the interest
must be payable entirely in cash or in cash and promissory notes which are not
secured by such interest, (iv) any consent or approval required under any loan
documents to which the Company is a party or to which the Company Property is
subject has been obtained at the sole cost and expense of the transferring
Member, and (V) the transferee must be of good business reputation and
character.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no transfer by a
Member (whether direct or indirect) shall be effective if it would or may cause
the Company to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation, or if
such transfer is effected through an "established securities market" or a
"secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)," within the meaning
of Section 7704 of the Code.

     Section 6.4.   Right of First Refusal on Sale of Company Interests.
                    -----------------------------------------------------
Before either Member (the selling member herein called the "Selling Member")
actually concludes a sale of its Company interest permitted hereunder to a
person or entity other than an Affiliate of the Selling Member, and after the
requirements of Section 6.3 have been satisfied, the Selling Member shall give
notice (the "SALE NOTICE") to the other Member (the "NON-SELLING MEMBER")
setting forth the identity of the proposed purchaser, the purchase price and the
terms of payment of the proposed sale. The Non-Selling Member will have 30 days
after the giving of such notice to elect, by giving written notice (the
"PURCHASE NOTICE") to the Selling Member, to acquire the Selling Member's
interest in the Company for the purchase price and terms therein specified in
the Sale Notice, and 90 days after the making of such election to close such
sale. If such election shall not be made, then the Selling Member may conclude a
sale to the proposed purchaser at any time or times within 180 days after the
giving of the Sale

                                       28
<PAGE>
 
Notice for a purchase price and on terms which are at least as favorable to the
Selling Member as those contained in the Sale Notice; but if a sale is not
consummated within such period, then the rights of the Non-Selling Member to
notice and purchase as aforesaid shall continue as to any new sale.  If, on the
other hand, the Non-Selling Member make such election to acquire such interest
from the Selling Member but fails to consummate the purchase, then without
limitation on the rights and remedies of the Selling Member, the rights of such
Non Selling Member under this Section 6.4 shall be permanently lost.

     Section 6.5.   Withdrawal. Except as set forth in this Agreement, no Member
                    ------------

all rights that it may have to maintain any action for partition of any of the
Company Property.

     Section 7.3.   Litigation Without Termination.  Either Member shall be
                    ------------------------------                         
entitled to maintain, on its own behalf or on behalf of the Company, any action
or proceeding against the other Member or the Company (including, without
limitation, any action for damages, specific performance or declaratory relief)
for or by reason of breach by such party of this Agreement or any other
agreement entered into in connection with the same, notwithstanding the fact
that any or all of the parties to such proceeding may then be Members in the
Company, and without dissolving the Company as a limited liability company.

     Section 7.4.   Attorneys Fees  If the Company or any Member obtains a

or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at
law, in equity or by statute (subject, however, to the limitations expressly
herein set forth)-

     Section 7.6,   No Waiver.  No waiver by a Member or the Company of any 
                    --------- 
breach of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach of
any kind or nature, and no acceptance of payment or performance by a Member or
the Company after any such

                                       29
<PAGE>
 
breach shall be deemed to be a waiver of any breach of this Agreement, whether
or not such Member or the Company knows of such breach at the time it accepts
such payment or performance.  No failure or delay on the part of a Member or the
Company to exercise any right it may have shall prevent the exercise thereof by
such Member or the Company at arty time such other may continue to be so in
default, and no such failure or delay shall operate as a waiver of any default.

however, that if a portion of the purchase price of such sale is evidenced by a
promissory note, the

                                       32
<PAGE>
 
Company shall not be dissolved by reason of such sale so long as the Company is
the holder of such promissory note).

    B.    The unanimous agreement in writing by the Members to dissolve the
Company

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or in the Act to the contrary,
neither the death, retirement, resignation, expulsion nor dissolution of a
Member, nor (subject to Section 8. 1 A above) any other event which terminates
the continued membership of any Member in this Company, shall result in the
dissolution of the Company, and the Company shall continue in existence
notwithstanding the occurrence thereof

Without limitation on the other provisions hereof, neither the assignment of all
or any part of a Member's interest in the Company permitted hereunder nor the
admission of a new member shall result in the dissolution of the Company.
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Member agrees that, (1)
without the consent of the other Members, a Member may not withdraw from or
cause a voluntary dissolution of the Company, and (ii) so long as the
obligations of the Company under the Mortgage and the Loan are outstanding, it

Member (such event being here-in called the "DISSOLUTION EVENT" and such Member
being herein called the "DISSOLUTION MEMBER"), then the other Member shall have
the option, exercisable by written notice (the "DISSOLUTION/PURCHASE ELECTION
NOTICE") to the Dissolution Member or its personal representative, successor or
assign at any time within 21 0 days after it learns of the Dissolution Event, to
purchase the Company interest of the Dissolution Member (any such Member being
herein collectively called the "ELECTING MEMBER'S on the terms hereinafter set
forth (such option being herein called the "COMPANY PURCHASE OPTION").  Nothing
herein shall be deemed to require any Member to exercise such Company Purchase
Option.

     In the event of the exercise of the Company Purchase Option, the
consideration for the purchase of the Dissolution Member's Company interest
shall be the amount (if any) that will produce for the Dissolution Member the
same amount in cash as it would have received if the Business Property owned by
the Company at the date on which the Dissolution Event occurs, had been sold at
its then fair market value ("Fair Market Value"), after deducting all closing
costs (including attorneys' fees, title insurance costs, brokers' fees and
recordation costs) that would customarily be paid by the seller of properties
of, like kind and stature, and the Company had been dissolved and wound up
following such sale.

     (1) The Fair Market Value of such Business Property shall be as agreed upon
by the Electing Member and the Dissolution Member, or if they fail to agree upon
such value within 45 days after the giving of the Dissolution/Purchase Election
Notice, then as determined by appraisal, in accordance with procedure set forth
in Exhibit "D." The electing

the date which is 30 days after the Fair Market Value of the Business Property
has been determined.

     (2) Any sum payable for the Dissolution Member's Company interest as
hereinabove determined must be paid in cash within 60 days after the
determination of the amount of the same as aforesaid.  Concurrently with the
payment of such sum (or if no amount shall be payable for such interest, then
upon demand of the assignee), the assignor of such interest shall deliver or
cause to be delivered to such assignee such assignments of Company interest and
other instruments and documents confirming the assignment and transfer as such
assignee shall reasonably request.  The acquisition of such Company -interest as
aforesaid shall be deemed effective as of the date on which the Dissolution
Event occurred ("DISSOLUTION EVENT DATE"), and, accordingly, the assignee shall

                      --------------------- 

     A.  In the event of the dissolution of the Company for any reason, the
Managing, Member (or, if the Managing Member is Bankrupt or dissolved, then the
Non-Managing Member) shall commence to wind up the affairs of the Company and to
liquidate its investments.  The Member obligated to wind up the affairs of the
Company as aforesaid is herein called the "WINDING-UP MEMBER," The Members shall
continue to share profits, losses, gain or loss on sale or disposition, and
Distributable Cash during the period of liquidation in the same manner and
proportion as though the Company had not dissolved.

     B.  Following the payment of all debts and liabilities of the Company and
all expenses of liquidation, and subject to the right of the Winding-Up Member
to set up such cash reserves as and for so long as it may deem reasonably
necessary in good faith for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or
obligations of the Company, the proceeds of the liquidation and any other funds
of the Company shall be distributed in accordance with the positive balance in
each Member's "Book Capital Account" (as defined in Exhibit "C" hereto) and, in
the event of any excess proceeds, in accordance with the Member's respective
Company Percentages after deducting from the distributive share of a Member any
sum such Member owes the Company, together with accrued and unpaid interest
thereon.

     C.  Each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for all
distributions with respect to the Company and its Capital Contribution thereto
and share of Profits or Losses thereof and shall have no recourse therefor (in
the event of any deficit in a Member's Capital Account or otherwise) against the
other Member; provided that nothing

herein contained shall relieve any Member of such Member's obligation to make
any Capital Contribution herein provided or to pay any liability or indebtedness
owing the Company by such Member, and the Company and the other Member shall be
entitled at all times to enforce such obligations of such Member.  No holder of
a Company interest shall have any right to demand or receive property other than
cash upon dissolution and termination of the Company; provided that, the Company
may distribute all or any portion of the Company Property in kind with the
written consent of all Members, which consent may be withheld in the sole and
absolute discretion of any Member.

     D.   Upon the completion of the liquidation of the Company and the
distribution of all Company Property and funds, the Company shall terminate and
the Winding-Up Member shall have the authority to execute and record a
certificate of cancellation of the Company, as well as any and all other
documents required to effectuate the dissolution and termination of the Company-

     Section 8.5.   Certain Matters as to Non Association Status.  In the event
                    --------------------------------------------               
that under both Federal and Massachusetts income tax law, the elimination of
Section 8. 1 A will not cause the Company to be treated as an association taxed
as if it were a corporation, then, notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Agreement to the contrary, neither the Bankruptcy of a Member nor any other
event which terminates a Member's continued membership in the Company will be a
Dissolution Event, and accordingly, the provisions of Sections 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4
will not apply to such Member.

                         -----------------------------
                                        
     The following provisions set forth the procedure for determining "Fair
Market Value' as referred to in Section 8.2 of the Amended and Restated Limited
Liability Company Agreement (this "Agreement") to which this Exhibit is attached
and of which this Exhibit is a part.  Except as otherwise indicated, each
capitalized term used herein shall have the meaning set forth for the same
elsewhere in the Agreement.

           A.    Definition.  "Fair Market Value" means the price (as
                 ----------                                          
 determined pursuant to this Exhibit) at which the property (the "SUBJECT
 PROPERTY") to be appraised would be sold for cash by a willing seller, not
 compelled to sell, to a willing buyer, not compelled to buy, on a free and
 clear basis, unencumbered by any financing (including, without limitation, any
 deeds of trust, mortgages, ground leases (in connection with sale/leaseback
 financing only) or other security instruments securing any financing) other
 than prepayment penalties except to the extent such penalties are applicable to
 the transaction giving rise to the need to determine Fair Market Value.
 However, the determination of the Fair Market Value of the Subject Property
 shall take into account (and be reduced by) the total closing costs (including
 attorneys' fees, title insurance costs, brokers' fees and recordation costs)
 that would customarily be paid by the seller of properties of like kind and
 stature.

          B.     Agreement Procedure.  First, the parties shall attempt to
                 -------------------                                      
determine the Fair Market Value of the Subject Property by agreement in
accordance with this subsection B.

          (1)    Proposal.  On (or within 15 days before or after) the date (the
                 --------                                                       
"DETERMINATION DATE") as of which the determination of Fair Market Value is to
be made, the Electing Member ("FIRST MEMBER") (upon agreement of all parties
comprising First Member) may give the Dissolution Member ("SECOND MEMBER")
written notice of its proposed Fair Market Value of the Subject Property.  If
Second Member disagrees with any such proposed Fair Market Value, Second Member
shall notify First Member in writing, within 10 business days after First
Member's proposal is delivered, of its disagreement and its counterproposal (and
failure to do so within such 10 business day period shall be deemed to 
constitute Second Member's agreement with First Member's proposal).  Such 10
business day period is herein called the "Proposal Period."

          (2)    Supplemental Discussion.  If First Member and Second Member 
                 -----------------------                                        
fail to reach actual (or deemed) agreement during the Proposal Period (or if the
proposal described above is not given), then the parties shall use good faith
efforts to reach agreement on the Fair Market Value, of the Subject Property on
or before the "OUTSIDE NEGOTIATION DATE" (which, as used herein, means the date
that is 20 business days after the Determination Date or, if later, 10 business
days after the Proposal Period, if any).

               (2)       DETERMINATION BY APPRAISERS.
                         --------------------------- 

                         (a)   Appraisal by One Appraiser.  If the appraisal 
                               --------------------------    
is, to be conducted by a single appraiser appointed jointly by the parties, the
appraiser appointed shall proceed to appraise the Subject Property and notify
the parties by written notice of the amount of the Fair Market Value of the
Subject Property, which notice shall be accompanied by a copy of his appraisal
report, not later than the earlier to occur of the date which is 30 days after
the appointment of such appraiser and the date which is 45 days after the
Outside Negotiation Date, and such appraiser's determination of the Fair Market
Value of the Subject Property shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value of the
Subject Property.

                        (b)    Appraisal by Three Appraisers.   If the 
                               -----------------------------  
appraisal is to be conducted by a board of three appraisers, the appraisers
shall proceed to appraise the Subject Property and notify the parties by written
notice of the amount of their determinations of the Fair Market Value of the
Subject Property, which notices shall be accompanied by copies of their
appraisal reports and be given not later than 30 days after the appointment of
the third appraiser. If the determinations of the Fair Market Value of the
Subject Property of any two or all three of the appraisers shall be identical in
amount, such amount shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value of the Subject
Property, but if such determinations of all three appraisers shall be different
in amount, then the Fair Market Value of the Subject Property shall be
determined as follows:

                        (i)    If neither the highest nor the lowest appraised
value differs from the middle appraised value by more than 10% of the middle
appraised value or if highest and lowest appraised values each differ from the
middle appraised value by the same amount, then the Fair Market Value of the
Subject Property shall be deemed to be the average of the three appraised
values; and

                        (ii)   Otherwise, the Fair Market Value of the Subject
Property shall be deemed to be the average of the middle appraised value and the
appraised value closer in amount to the middle appraised value.


     D.    Conclusive Determination.  The Fair Market Value of the Subject 
           ------------------------                                        
Property determined in accordance with the provisions of this Exhibit shall be
binding and conclusive on the parties.

                                  -----------
                                        
                      PROVISIONS CONCERNING EXISTING LOAN
                      -----------------------------------
                                        
Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Exhibit -"E" shall
have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Amended and Restated Limited Liability
Company Agreement (the "Agreement") to which this Exhibit E is attached.

     1.    Loan Escrow Account  The Managing Member shall cause the Company to
           -------------------                                              
make, as and when required by the Existing Loan Documents, all deposits into
that certain interest bearing account (the "Loan Escrow Account") established
under the "Security Agreement" (as defined below) and defined therein as the
"Account" (any such deposit being referred to as a "Loan Escrow Deposit",.
whether such deposit increases the balance of the Loan Escrow Account or is used
and applied to principal or deferred interest).  The parties also acknowledge
that the calculation of the Loan Escrow Deposit is impacted by the fact that
fees payable with respect to the Management Agreement (some of which arc in turn
used to paY fees owing under the Purchase Service Agreement) are not to be paid
out of cash flow, thereby increasing the cash flow available to be applied to
the Loan Escrow Account.

     2.    Contributions for Management Fees, To the extent that, prior to the
           ----------------------------------                                  
refinancing of the Existing Loan, the compensation and reimbursements to Manager
provided in the Management Agreement or to the Purchased Services Provider under
the Purchased Services Agreement cannot be paid from cash flow from the property
securing the Existing Loan on account of restrictions in the Existing Loan
Documents, Non-Managing Member shall provide the funds to the Company in order
to make such payment.  Such funds shall be deemed to be (i) a contribution (as
to one-third of such funds) by the Non-Managing Member to the Company, and (ii)
a loan (as to two-thirds of such funds) from the Non-Managing Member to the
Managing Member and the making by the Managing Member of a corresponding
contribution to the Company.

     3.    Loan to Non-Managing Member of 2/3rds of Debt Service Differential.
           ------------------------------------------------------------------
As used herein, "Debt Service Differential" means the amount, if any, by which
the Escrow Deposits and payments of interest to the existing Lender are greater
than the sum of (1) 8.5% per annum of the outstanding balance of principal and
deferred interest on the Existing Loan on January 1, 1997 plus (ii) the amount
paid to Manager and to Purchased Services Provider from the contributions of the
Members described in paragraph 2 above. Immediately following each Escrow
Deposit (commencing with the first Escrow Deposit for the period after December
31, 1996), and continuing until the refinancing of the Existing Loan, Non-
Managing Member shall lend the Managing Member two-thirds of the amount of the
Debt Service Differential for the period since the most recent prior Escrow
Deposit.

     4.    Repayment of Loans  Concurrently with the refinancing of the Existing
           ------------------                                                   
Loan, Managing Member shall repay to Non-Managing Member the entire amount of
the loans to

                                      E-1

<PAGE>
 
Managing Member made pursuant to paragraph 2 and 3 of this Exhibit ""E",
together with interest thereon of 8.5% per annum of the amount of the principal
outstanding from time to time of such loans.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to
the extent the Loan Escrow Deposits which correspond to the loans to Managing
Member made pursuant to paragraphs 2 and 3 of this Exhibit "E" are simply used
to increase the balance of the Loan Escrow Account instead of being applied to
principal or deferred interest under the Existing Loan, the interest applicable
to, such portion of the loans to Managing Partner shall be the same interest
rate earned on funds in the Loan Escrow Account.

     5.    Certain Definition '. As used herein, the term "Security Agreement"
           ------------------                                                 
means that certain Security Agreement (Deposit Account), dated as of March 1,
1992, executed by Copley Place Associates, Copley Place Associates Nominee
Corporation, Copley Funding Corporation, Copley Financing Corporation and The
Aetna Casualty & Surety Company.

     6.    Consignment  Equity- All sums, if any, that are to be paid to 
           --------------------      
Existing Lender with respect to the Existing Lender's rights in "Contingent
Equity" (as defined in the Equity Payment Agreement) shall be paid solely by the
Non Managing Member, and Non-Managing Member shall indemnify the Managing Member
and hold the Managing Member harmless therefrom.

     7.    Intent of Provisions.  It is the intent of the provisions of 
           -------------------- 
paragraphs 1 through 6 above that Managing Member be put in the same economic
position as it would have been if, at all times from the inception of its
Memberships in the Company through the date of repayment (or prepayment) of the
Existing Loan in its entirety, the Escrow Loan Documents (i) did not require
additional payments to be made to the Loan Escrow Account, (ii) did not require
payment of Contingent Equity, (iii) did not prohibit payments from cash flow to
pay amounts payable under the Management Agreement and the Purchased Services
Agreement and (iv) did require that payments be made each month on the Existing
Loan equal to interest accruing at 8.5% per annum on the outstanding. balance,
as of date of Managing Member's admission to the Company, of principal and
deferred interest on the Existing Loan (and that, accordingly, the balance of
principal and deferred interest on the Existing Loan did not decrease between
Managing Member's admission to the Company and the date on which the Existing
Loan is repaid (or prepaid) in its entirety). The provisions of paragraphs I
through 6 above shall be deemed to operate, and shall be construed in accordance
with, such intent.

     8.   Assignment and Security Agreement.  Each Member, other than Copley or
          ---------------------------------

other Member, and assigns to the other Member ("Secured Member") for security

behalf of the Pledging Member if it shall fail

                                      E-2

to promptly execute and deliver same when requested to do so.  The Secured
Member hereby authorizes the Pledging Member to receive distributions with
respect to its Interest in the Company until such time as the Pledging Member
shall fail to pay any amount to the Secured Member which becomes due under this
Exhibit "E". whereupon all such distributions shall be paid directly to the

Central Area Premises pursuant to the terms of the Central Area Lease with the
MTA, (ii) Mortgagee has a valid first mortgage lien on, among other things, such
direct leasehold interest of Copley in and to the Central Area Premises, and
(iii) the continuance in effect of the Central Area Lease as such direct lease

of the Mortgage, and the Mortgage constitutes a first mortgage lien on, among
other things, such direct leasehold interest of Copley in and to the Central

Lease between the MTA and Copley, UIDC has been released from all its
obligations and liabilities under the Mortgage, the notes secured thereby (the
"Notes") and all other documents evidencing or securing the Loan (the "Other
Loan Documents"), and such release shall have no effect on Copley's or any other
party's obligations under such documents.

          6.  The provisions of Section 1.17 of the Mortgage are incorporated
herein by reference as if herein set forth in full and shall be fully applicable
to this instrument.

          7.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of
which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

change the nature of the Addition or its suitability for its Intended Use, delay

(30) days, materially change the nature of the Addition or its suitability for
the Intended Use, delay the installation of the equipment in the Addition,
materially increase GSC's costs of maintaining the Addition in accordance with

          (c) If GSC desires an Addition Work Change, or if OPL Leasing has

Use, then an Event of Loss shall be deemed to have occurred as of the date OPL
Leasing so informs GSC.

Leasing pursuant to Section 4.04A, the excess of the Addition Cost over the
Maximum Addition Cost shall be funded first out of insurance proceeds or
condemnation awards available for that purpose, if any, and second by OPL
Leasing from its own resources.  If OPL Leasing becomes obligated to expend any
amount in excess of the Maximum Addition Cost, or if as a result of an Addition
Work Change there is a change in the costs to OPL Leasing of operation and
maintenance of the Addition, utility usage, Property Taxes or similar items, the
Contingent Tolls, Alternative Contingent Tolls and termination Value shall be
increased in accordance with the following sentences to reflect the additional
amounts invested by, and additional expenses expected to be incurred by, OPL
Leasing; provided that no such increase shall occur if the excess costs are the
         --------                                                              
result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of OPL Leasing.  Within
sixty (60) days following the Operational Date, OPL Leasing shall prepare
proposed revised Schedules 5.03A, 5.04A and 1. 1A to reflect increases in the
Contingent Tolls, Alternative Contingent Tolls and Termination Value which shall
preserve OPL Leasing's after tax internal rate of return and shall forward such
Schedules to GSC.The parties shall then meet within thirty (30) days of the
date of such transmittal and agree upon adjustments to the aforementioned
Schedules.  If the parties cannot so agree within thirty (30) days of such
meeting, the dispute shall be resolved by arbitration pursuant to Section 10.09.
Any revision in such Schedules shall be retroactive to the Operational Date and
GSC shall promptly pay to OPL Leasing any arrearages with respect to any payment
of Tolls made prior to such amendments being agreed upon or resolved by
arbitration.
<PAGE>
 
          (ii)   If the Addition Cost is less than the Maximum Addition Cost,
then the Contingent Tolls, the Alternative Contingent Tolls and Termination
Value shall be decreased to reflect the lesser amounts invested by OPL Leasing.
Within sixty (60) days following the Operational Date, OPL Leasing shall prepare
proposed revised Schedules 5.03A, 5.04A and 1. 1A to reflect the proposed
decreases in the Contingent Tolls, Alternative Contingent Tolls and Termination
Value which shall preserve OPL Leasing's after tax internal rate of, return and
shall forward such Schedules to GSC.  Thereupon, the provisions of the last two
sentences of subparagraph 4.05A(a) (i) above shall apply.

5.6B.     Proration of Operations and Maintenance Costs
          for Additional Tolls and Contingent Tolls
          -----------------------------------------

          (a)    Prior to the Operational Date, OPL Leasing shall prepare a
proposed revised schedule of Operations and Maintenance Costs based upon (i) OPL
Leasing's actual Operations and Maintenance Costs over the immediately preceding
twelve (12) months and (ii) the anticipated usage of the Facility (including
therein the Addition) by GSC from the Operational Date until the date which
shall be the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Basic Tolls Commencement Date.  Such
schedule shall reflect the increased Operations and Maintenance Costs
anticipated as a result of the construction of the Addition and shall be used to
calculate the O&M Component of the Additional Tolls and Contingent Tolls
pursuant to paragraph (c) below.  The schedule shall be effective as to
Additional Tolls, Alternative Tolls and Contingent Tolls payable on account of
the Semester beginning after the Operational Date, provided, however, that from
the Operational Date until the date such Semester begins, GSC shall pay
Contingent Tolls, the 0 & M Component of which shall be calculated in accordance
with paragraph (c)(y) below and shall be prorated to reflect the period of
time extending from the Operational Date until the beginning of the
aforementioned Semester.

          (b)  As soon as possible after the sixth (6th) anniversary of the
Basic Tolls Commencement Date and, thereafter, after every third (3rd)
anniversary of the Basic Tolls Commencement Date, OPL Leasing shall prepare a
proposed revised schedule of Operations and Maintenance Costs pursuant to
Section 5.06(b).

          (c)  For purposes of calculating the O&M Component of the Additional
Tolls and Contingent Tolls, (x) the O&M Component for the Additional Tolls (for
each increment of 1,000 Accounts and up to the first 1.4 million Accounts) shall
be equal to the product of (i) the Operations and Maintenance Costs (as
calculated pursuant to paragraph 5.06B (a) or (b) above, as applicable) times
(ii) a number, the numerator of which shall be equal to 408,000 and the
denominator of which shall be equal to the total square footage of the
<PAGE>
 
Facility (including therein the Addition), times (iii) 1,000, times (iv) 1/2,
divided by 1,300,000 (one million three hundred thousand) and (y) the O&M
Component for the Contingent Tolls (for each increment of 1,000 Accounts and up
to the first 1.4 million Accounts) shall be calculated as in item (x) above,
except that the numerator in item (ii) shall be equal to the square footage of
the Addition.  For each increment of 1,000 Accounts in excess of 1,400,000
Accounts, (p) the O&M Component for the Additional Tolls shall be equal to the
amount set forth in Schedule 5.03 subject to any applicable adjustment thereto)
and (q) the O&M Component for the Contingent Tolls shall be equal to 0.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagor may, at its expense and before any
     delinquency occurs or lien as a result of Mortgagor's failure to pay
     Impositions is imposed or accrues, contest the amount or validity or
     application of any such Impositions by appropriate legal proceedings
     promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence,
     provided that Mortgagee receives prior written notice of Mortgagor's
     interest to so contest or object to an Imposition and is reasonably
     satisfied that (i) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest
     therein will be in danger of being foreclosed upon, sold, forfeited,
     terminated, canceled, or lost as a result of such contest, and (ii)
     Mortgagor shall have posted a bond or furnished such other security as may
     be required from time to time by Mortgagee and as is reasonably
     satisfactory to Mortgagee in form and in amount.  Mortgagor shall
     indemnify, defend, protect and hold Mortgagee harmless from all loss,
     liability, cost or expense by reason of such contest, including reasonable
     attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by Mortgagee.  In any event, any
     Imposition contested hereunder shall be paid and fully discharged by
     Mortgagor or such amount escrowed with Mortgagee in an interest bearing
     account within five (5) days after entry of any judgment adverse to
     Mortgagor in any action to enforce or foreclose the same (regardless of the
     pendency of a stay of execution in connection with any appeal undertaken by
     Mortgagor), or at any time when such payment or discharge is necessary in
     order to prevent loss of control or dispossession of Mortgagor from the
     Property or any part thereof.

     B.  Mortgagor will pay all taxes (excluding income, franchise and doing
     business taxes), assessments, charges, expenses., costs and fees (including
     registration and



                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 
     recording fees and mortgage taxes) levied on, assessed against or incurred
     by Mortgagee in connection with any of the Loan Documents.  Mortgagor will
     also pay all stamp and other similar taxes required to be paid in
     connection with the Obligations.

     C.  In the event of the enactment of or change (including a change in
     interpretation) of any applicable law, in any manner changing or modifying
     the laws governing (i) the taxation of mortgages, deeds of trust or other
     security instruments or the debts secured thereby, or (ii) the manner of
     collecting such taxes, so as to adversely affect Mortgagee, this Mortgage
     or any other Loan Document or the Indebtedness, Mortgagor will promptly pay
     any such tax and otherwise compensate Mortgagee to the extent of such
     detriment; provided, however, that if (a) Mortgagor fails to make such
     payment, or (b) any such law prohibits Mortgagor from making such payment,
     or (c) any such law would penalize Mortgagee in the event of such payment,
     then the entire principal balance of the Indebtedness, together with all
     interest accrued thereon and any and all other sums secured by this
     Mortgage shall, with notice, become immediately due and payable at the
     option of Mortgagee, without any penalty for prepayment in the case of (b)
     or (c), above.

2.5  COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.  Mortgagor will promptly and faithfully comply with,
     --------------------                                                     
     and cause the Property to be maintained, used and operated in accordance
     with, all present and future Laws and Restrictions.  If Mortgagor receives
     any notice that Mortgagor or the Property is in default under or not in
     compliance with any present or future Laws and Restrictions, or receives
     notice of any proceeding initiated under or with respect to such default or
     non-compliance, Mortgagor will promptly furnish a copy of such notice to
     Mortgagee.

2.8  BOOKS AND RECORDS, ANNUAL OPERATING, STATEMENTS, FINANCIAL STATEMENTS RENT
     --------------------------------------------------------------------------
     ROLL AND OTHER INFORMATION.
     -------------------------- 

     A.  Mortgagor, without expense to Mortgagee, will maintain full and
     complete books of account and records reflecting the operation of the
     Property.  Mortgagor will keep at its offices at the Property, and make
     available to Mortgagee during normal business hours, all such books and
     records and the "as-built" plans and specifications or, if unavailable, the
     final set of plans and specifications from which the Improvements were
     constructed certified by a licensed architect or licensed contractor as
     true, correct and complete.

     B.  Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the close of each calendar
     year, Mortgagor shall furnish to Mortgagee (i) annual operating statements
     showing all elements of income and expense for the operation of the
     Property, (ii) financial statements of each Principal Party and each Major
     Tenant (to the extent that the Major Tenant's lease requires them to
     provide such information to Mortgagor, provided however, that the failure
     of a Major Tenant to provide such statement to



                                      -9-
<PAGE>
 
     Mortgagor and Mortgagor's corresponding failure to provide such statements
     to Mortgagee, shall not be an Event of Default hereunder or under any of
     the Loan Documents), and (iii) current rent rolls, showing all items set
     forth in the rent rolls delivered to Mortgagee in connection with the
     closing of the Loan, as well as gross sales of any tenant paying percentage
     rental.  Mortgagor will promptly furnish to Mortgagee such other financial
     information concerning the condition of Mortgagor, any Principal Party and
     the Property, and all other information concerning the Property or the
     performance by Mortgagor of the Obligations, that Mortgagee may reasonably
     request.  All such statements and information shall be prepared in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and certified by
     an authorized person, partner or officer.  In the event any such operating
     statement, financial statement, rent roll or other information is not
     timely submitted to Mortgagee, and remains unsubmitted for thirty (30) days
     after Mortgagee notifies Mortgagor, a service fee of $500.00 shall
     automatically become due and payable to Mortgagee and be secured by this
     Mortgage.  This charge shall be in addition to all other rights and
     remedies available to Mortgagee upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

     C.  Mortgagee and its representatives shall have the right, at all
     reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, to examine and make copies of
     Mortgagor's plans, books, records, income tax returns and all supporting
     data concerning the Property.  Mortgagor will assist Mortgagee and its
     representatives in conducting such examination.

     D.  Mortgagor acknowledges that Mortgagee may intend to request that a
     rating agency provide a rating of the Loan.  Mortgagor agrees that, at
     Mortgagee's request, Mortgagor will prepare or cause to be prepared
     additional financial statements in respect of the Property, Mortgagor
     and/or the general partners of Mortgagor, that a rating agency may
     reasonably require in connection with any such rating and which such rating
     agency customarily requires in connection with commercial loan ratings for
     similar properties, provided that Mortgagor shall not be required to incur
     additional expense or liability in connection with rating the Loan.  The
     form of such financial statements shall be acceptable to such rating agency
     and to Mortgagee.

2.7  FURTHER ASSURANCES.  Mortgagor will do all acts necessary to keep valid
     ------------------                                               
     and effective the lien of this Mortgage and to carry into effect its
     objectives and to protect the lawful owner of the Note and the other
     Obligations. Mortgagor at any time upon the reasonable request of
     Mortgagee, will at it sole expense, execute, acknowledge and deliver all
     such additional papers and instruments (provided that any such additional
     papers and instruments will reflect the limitation of personal liability
     contained in Section 7.30 hereof) and perform all such further acts as may
                  ------------                                                 
     be reasonably necessary to perform the Obligations and, as Mortgagee deems
     reasonably necessary, to preserve the priority of the lien of this Mortgage
     or to carry out the purposes of the Loan Documents, provided that the same
     shall not diminish Mortgagor's rights or



                                      -10-
<PAGE>
 
     increase Mortgagor's Obligations hereunder or under any of the Loan
     Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Mortgagor
     will promptly and, insofar as not contrary to applicable law, at
     Mortgagor's own expense, execute, record, rerecord, file and re-file in
     such offices, at such times and as often as may be necessary, this
     Mortgage, additional mortgages or deeds of trust, and every other
     instrument in addition to or supplemental hereto, including applicable
     financing statements, as may be necessary to create, perfect, maintain and
     preserve the liens, encumbrances and security interests intended to be
     created by the Loan Documents and the rights and remedies of Mortgagee
     thereunder.  Upon request by the Mortgagee, Mortgagor will promptly supply
     evidence of fulfillment of the foregoing acts and assurances.

2.8  DEFENSE OF TITLE AND LITIGATION.  Mortgagor will forever warrant and defend
     -------------------------------                                     
     its title to the Property and the validity, enforceability and priority of
     the lien and security interests created hereby against the claims and
     demands of all Persons. If the lien or security interests created by this
     Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents, or the validity,
     enforceability or priority thereof, or title or any of the rights of
     Mortgagor or Mortgagee in or to the Property, shall be endangered or
     questioned, or shall be attacked directly or indirectly, or if any action
     or proceeding is instituted against Mortgagor or Mortgagee with respect
     thereto, Mortgagor will promptly notify Mortgagee thereof and will
     diligently use its best efforts to cure any defect so asserted. In so
     doing, Mortgagor will take all necessary and proper steps for the defense
     of such action or proceeding, including the employment of counsel, the
     prosecution or defense of litigation and, subject to Mortgagee's approval,
     the compromise, release or discharge of any and all adverse claims.
     Mortgagee (whether or not named as a party to such actions or proceedings)
     is entitled (but shall not be obligated) to take such additional steps as
     it may deem necessary or proper for the defense of any such action or
     proceeding or the protection of the lien, security interest, validity,
     enforceability or priority of this Mortgage or any other Loan Document or
     of such title or rights, including the employment of counsel, the
     prosecution or defense of litigation, the compromise, release or discharge
     of such adverse claims and the removal of such prior liens and security
     interests.

2.9  INSPECTION OF PROPERTY.  Mortgagor hereby grants to Mortgagee, its agents,
     ----------------------                                                    
     employees, consultants and contractors, the right, subject to the rights of
     tenants under the Leases, to enter upon the Property, at all reasonable
     times and upon reasonable notice, for the purpose of making any and all
     inspections, reports, inquiries reviews and tests (such tests to be
     undertaken by Mortgagee at Mortgagee's cost) only after an Event of Default
     has occurred), as Mortgagee (in its sole and absolute discretion) deems
     necessary to assess the then current condition of the Property, or for the
     purpose of performing any of the other acts Mortgagee is authorized to
     perform hereunder or under the Hazardous Substances Agreement. Mortgagor
     will cooperate with Mortgagee to facilitate such entry and the
     accomplishment of such purposes.

2.10 TAX AND INSURANCE DEPOSITS.
     -------------------------- 

     A.  Mortgagee may, at any time after (i) an Event of Default has occurred
     (whether or not subsequently waived or then-existing), or (ii) the Debt
     Service Coverage as determined by Mortgagee falls below 1.1 to 1.0, require
     for the balance of the term of the Note that Mortgagor deposit with
     Mortgagee or any service or financial institution designated by Mortgagee
     pursuant to PARAGRAPH 2.10.F.  hereof (collectively, "Depository"),
                 ------------------                                     
     monthly, one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual Impositions and the premiums for
     all insurance policies required hereunder, and Mortgagor will make all such
     required deposits; Mortgagor will also deposit with the Depository a sum of
     money which, together with the aforesaid monthly installments, will be
     sufficient to make each of said payments of Impositions and, if required,
     premiums at least thirty (30) days before such payments are due.  If the
     amount of any such payments is not ascertainable at the time any such
     deposit is required to be made, the deposit will be made on the basis of
     Mortgagee's reasonable estimate thereof, and, when such amount is fixed for
     the then-current year, Mortgagor will promptly deposit any deficiency with
     the Depository.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that monthly
     deposits on account of Impositions become due under clause (ii), above,
     Mortgagee shall notify Mortgagor of the same, and, if Mortgagor does not
     deposit such Impositions with Depository within thirty (30) days after
     Mortgagee's notice, Guarantor shall be deemed to have assumed personal
     liability for the payment of all Impositions.  At any time after Guarantor
     has been deemed to assume such personal liability, Mortgagor and Guarantor
     shall have the right to deposit the Impositions with Depository and,
     thereafter, Guarantor shall no longer be personally liable for the
     Impositions until such time as Mortgagor again fails to pay Impositions as
     above promised.

     B.  All funds so deposited will, until so applied, constitute additional
     security for the Obligations, will be held by the Depository without
     interest (except to the extent required under applicable law), and may be
     commingled with other funds of the Depository.  Provided that no Event of
     Default shall exist, all such funds will be applied in payment of the
     annual Impositions and insurance premiums, but only to the extent that the
     Depository shall have such funds on hand.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
     Depository shall have no obligation to use said funds to pay (i) any of the
     annual Impositions and insurance premiums unless Mortgagor shall have
     furnished the Depository with the bills or invoices therefor in sufficient
     time to pay the same before any penalty or interest attaches and before
     said policies of insurance lapse, as the case may be, (ii) any installment
     of Impositions prior to the last day on which payment thereof may be made
     without penalty or interest, or (iii) any insurance premium prior to the
     due date thereof, provided however, that if any penalty, interest, or
     additional charges are incurred as a result of Mortgagor's failure to
     provide bills or invoices as above required, Mortgagor shall provide
     Depository with any additional funds required, and Depository shall pay the
     annual Impositions plus any interest or penalty.  If an Event of Default
     shall exist (whether or not the Obligations have been



                                      -12-
<PAGE>
 
     accelerated as herein provided), all funds so deposited may, at Mortgagee's
     option, be applied to the Obligations in the order determined by Mortgagee,
     including the unperformed Obligation which resulted in the then existing
     Event of Default, or to pay the Impositions and insurance premiums as
     provided above.  In no event shall Mortgagor be entitled to claim any
     credit against the principal and interest due under the Note for any
     payment or deposit for taxes or insurance, unless Mortgagor applies the
     same to principal and/or interest after an Event of Default.

     C.  Mortgagee, in making any payment authorized by this Mortgage (i)
     relating to taxes and assessments, may do so according to any bill,
     statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office without
     inquiring into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the
     validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or
     claim thereof, or (ii) for the purchase, discharge, compromise or
     settlement of any other prior lien, may do so without inquiring as to the
     validity or amount of any claim or lien which may be asserted.

     D.  Upon an assignment or other transfer of this Mortgage, the Depository
     shall have the right to pay over the balance of such deposits in its
     possession to the assignee or other successor, and the Depository and
     Mortgagee shall thereupon be completely released from all liability with
     respect to such deposits.  In such event, Mortgagor and any successor owner
     of the Property shall look solely to the assignee or transferee with
     respect to such deposits.  This provision shall apply to every transfer of
     such deposits to a new assignee or transferee.

     E.  Subject to the restrictions on Transfers herein, transfer of record
     title to the Premises and any other Property shall automatically transfer
     to the new owner the beneficial interest in any deposits under this
     PARAGRAPH 2.10. Upon full payment and satisfaction of the Note or, at
     --------------                                                       
     Mortgagee's option, at any prior time, the balance of such amounts in the
     Depository's possession shall be paid over to the record owner of the
     Property, and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.

     F.  At Mortgagee's request, Mortgagor agrees to make the aforesaid deposits
     in an account with such service or financial institution as Mortgagee may
     from time to time designate in lieu of Mortgagee, and the reasonable fees
     and costs of such institution shall be borne by Mortgagor.

2.11 TAX SERVICE CONTRACT.  Throughout the term of the Loan, Mortgagee will
     --------------------                                                  
     purchase tax service contracts issued by a tax reporting agency
     satisfactory to Mortgagee to monitor the payment of all real estate taxes
     and assessments relating to the Property, and Mortgagor shall pay to
     Mortgagee a one-time fee not to exceed $6,600.00 to cover the cost of such
     service.

2.12 ZONING AND OTHER TITLE MATTERS.  Mortgagor will not, without the prior
     ------------------------------                                        
     written consent of Mortgagee, (i) suffer, permit, initiate, support, join
     in, or consent to any



                                      -13-
<PAGE>
 
     change in the current use of the Premises or in any zoning ordinance,
     private restrictive covenant, assessment proceedings or other public or
     private restriction limiting or restricting the uses that may be made of
     the Premises or any part thereof, (ii) change the boundaries of the
     Premises, or initiate, support, join in or consent to the annexation of the
     Premises to any municipality, (iii) impose any restrictive covenants or
     encumbrances upon the Premises or otherwise modify, amend or supplement, or
     do anything that may result in the modification, amendment or
     supplementation of, the Permitted Exceptions, or (iv) permit the Premises
     to be used by the public or any Person in such manner as to make possible a
     claim of adverse usage or possession or of any implied dedication or
     easement by prescription.

2.13 DUE ON SALE OR ENCUMBRANCE.
     -------------------------- 

     A.  Except as expressly permitted below, Mortgagor will not cause, allow,
     or permit a Transfer without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, which
     consent may be withheld for any reason or no reason, or given
     conditionally, in Mortgagee's sole and absolute discretion.  If a Transfer
     occurs without the foregoing consent of Mortgagee, then such event shall
     constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents and the entire
     balance of the Loan, including all accrued interest and any other sums
     secured hereby, together with the Prepayment Premium (as defined in the
     Note) shall become immediately due and payable.  Any permitted transferee
     shall, as a condition of the effectiveness of any consent or waiver by
     Mortgagee hereunder, assume all of Mortgagor's obligations and rights under
     the Loan Documents (including the limitation of personal liability) and
     agree to be bound thereby.  Unless the provisions of SECTION B(VIII),
                                                          --------------- 
     below, are satisfied, such assumption shall not, however, release Mortgagor
     or any Principal Party from any liability under the Loan Documents.  This
     provision shall not apply to transfers of title or interest under any will,
     applicable law of descent, or transfers of limited partnership interests.
     Consent to any Transfer by Mortgagee shall not be deemed a waiver of
     Mortgagee's right to require such consent to any further or future
     Transfers.

     B.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if no Event of Default, or event which
     with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute
     an Event of Default, has occurred and is continuing, Mortgagee agrees, upon
     written request of Mortgagor, to consent to one and only one transfer of
     the entire Property (including all parcels and related collateral for the
     Loan) if:

     (i)  any proposed transferee of the Property (or a guarantor of the
     recourse carveouts following such transfer) is a person which is reasonably
     satisfactory to Mortgagee; and

     (ii) after the transfer, the Property will be managed by transferee, if
     such transferee has management experience, or by a manager approved by



                                      -14-
<PAGE>
 
     Mortgagee, pursuant to a management agreement for a term and on terms
     approved by Mortgagee; and

     (iii)  at the time of transfer the Loan to Value Ratio (as hereinafter
     defined) does not exceed 59.5%; and

     (iv)   Mortgagee has received thirty (30) days prior written notice from
     Mortgagor of the proposed transfer; and

     (v)    Mortgagor has paid Mortgagee a servicing fee (not to exceed $10,000)
     for consideration by Mortgagee of the request at the time Mortgagor makes
     such request, which shall be deemed earned by Mortgagee even if such
     request is denied, and an additional fee (against which said servicing fee
     shall be credited) equal to one-half percent (0.5%) of the outstanding
     principal balance of the Loan at the time of the transfer; and

     (vi)   at Mortgagee's option, Mortgagee has received an endorsement to
     Mortgagee's title policy at Mortgagor's expense, which endorsement states
     that the Mortgage remain a first and prior lien against the Property; and

     (vii)  Debt Service Coverage (as hereinafter defined) is equal to or
     greater than 1.63 to 1.00 for the preceding twelve (12) month period, and
     Mortgagee has no reason to believe that such Debt Service Coverage will not
     be maintained for the next succeeding twelve (12) months; and

     (viii) any transferee of the Property expressly assumes the indebtedness
     under the Note and all other obligations under the Loan Documents (subject
     to the limitation on liability set forth in PARAGRAPH 7.30 below), pursuant
                                                 ---------------                
     to documents satisfactory in form and substance to Mortgagee, and following
     any transfer of the Property, Guarantor (or a substitute guarantor) has
     GAAP net worth (plus accumulated depreciation) reasonably satisfactory to
     Mortgagee and affirms or reaffirms its obligations to Mortgagee under the
     Loan Documents by documentation in form and substance satisfactory to
     Mortgagee (at which time Guarantor will be released from further
     liability); and

     (ix)   the transferee executes such documents as may required by Mortgagee
     to perfect or maintain perfection of a first priority security interest in
     the Personalty; and

     (x)    Mortgagee has received copies of all documents evidencing such
     transfer and reasonably approved the form and content of all such
     documents, and Mortgagee is furnished with a certified copy of the recorded
     transfer document; and



                                      -15-
<PAGE>
 
     (xi)   such transfer is permitted under the provisions of the ERISA
     Certificate and Indemnification Agreement; and

     (xii)  Mortgagor pays all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by
     Mortgagee in connection with such transfer, including all legal,
     accounting, title insurance and appraisal fees, whether or not such
     transfer is actually consummated.

The term "Loan to Value Ratio" shall mean the ratio of (x) the aggregate
principal balance of all debt against the Property to (y) the purchase price of
the Property.

The term "Debt Service Coverage" shall mean a ratio calculated by dividing (1)
net operating income ("NOI") by (2) total annual debt service ("TADS").  NOI is
the gross annual income realized from operations of the Premises for the
applicable twelve (12) month period, subtracting therefrom all necessary and
ordinary operating expenses (both fixed and variable) for such twelve (12) month
period (assuming the Premises are ninety percent (90%) leased and occupied if
the actual leasing status of the Premises are less than ninety percent (90%),
including, but not limited to, utilities, administrative, cleaning, landscaping,
security, repairs and maintenance, ground rent payments, management fees, real
estate and other taxes, assessments and insurance, but excluding therefrom
deductions for federal, state and other income taxes, debt service expense,

     (i)   any transfer resulting from the death of a natural person, or

     (ii)  any transfer by a natural person to a spouse, son or daughter or

     or

     (iii) any transfer by a natural person in connection with bona fide estate
     planning, or

     (iv) any transfer to Guarantor or to Overseas Partners, Ltd. or to any
     entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Guarantor,
     Overseas Partners, Ltd. or Mortgagor, or to any combination of the
     foregoing.

2.14 NO COOPERATIVE OR CONDOMINIUM.  Mortgagor will not operate the Premises or
     -----------------------------                                             
     permit the Premises to be operated as a cooperative or condominium or
     otherwise such that the tenants or other occupants thereof participate in
     ownership, control, or management of the Premises or any part thereof, as
     tenant stockholders or otherwise.

2.15 INSURANCE.
     --------- 

     A. Mortgagor, at its sole cost and expense, will keep and maintain for the
     mutual benefit of Mortgagor and Mortgagee the following policies of
     insurance and shall faithfully comply with the provisions thereof: (i)
     insurance against loss or damage to the Property by fire and other risks
     covered by insurance commonly known as "all risk" coverage for real and
     personal property, including endorsements for loss by flood if all or part
     of the Premises are located within a federal or state designated flood
     hazard zone or other flood zone area, "extra expense" coverage and "agreed
     amount" coverage, and protection against such other risks or hazards as
     Mortgagee from time to time reasonably may designate, in an amount equal to
     one hundred percent (100%) of the then current "full replacement cost" of
     the Improvements, the Fixtures and the other Personalty, without deduction
     for physical depreciation; (ii) rental loss insurance against loss of
     income in an amount equal to at least twelve (12) months' base and
     additional rental, including charges for taxes, insurance, utilities and
     other operating expense reimbursements or "pass-throughs" at then current
     income levels; (iii) commercial general liability insurance for bodily
     injury or death or property damage occurring in, upon or about, or
     resulting from, the Premises or any other Property, or any street, drive,
     sidewalk, curb or passageway adjacent thereto (but such coverage or the
     amount thereof shall in no way limit the indemnifications in this Mortgage
     and other Loan Documents), with a combined single limit in such amounts as
     are reasonably approved by Mortgagee; (iv) "builders risk" insurance during
     the period of any construction, repair, replacement, renovation or
     alteration of the Improvements, in such amounts as are reasonably approved
     by


                                      -17-
<PAGE>
 
     Mortgagee; (v) boiler and machinery insurance; and (vi) such other
     insurance, and in such amounts, as may from time to time be reasonably
     required by Mortgagee.

     B.  All policies of insurance required by this Mortgage (i) shall be
     prepaid annually and otherwise satisfactory in form, substance and amount
     to Mortgagee and written with an insurance company rated as "B+/Xll" or
     better in Best's Insurance Reports, (ii) shall name Mortgagee as an
     additional insured as its interest may appear, (iii) shall contain a
     Standard Mortgagee clause acceptable to Mortgagee and a waiver of
     subrogation rights by the insurer, (iv) shall contain an agreement by the
     insurer that such policy shall not be amended or canceled without at least
     thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Mortgagee, and (v) shall contain
     such other provisions as Mortgagee deems reasonably necessary or desirable
     to protect its interests.  No approval by Mortgagee of any insurer shall be
     construed to be a representation, certification or warranty of its solvency
     and no approval by Mortgagee as to the amount, type and/or form of any
     insurance shall be construed to be a representation, certification or
     warranty of its sufficiency.

     C.  In the event a blanket policy is submitted to satisfy Mortgagor's
     obligations under this PARAGRAPH 2.15, in addition to such other
                            --------------                           
     requirements set forth herein, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee a
     certificate from such insurer indicating that Mortgagee is an insured under
     such policy and designating the amount of such insurance applicable to the
     Property.

     D.  Mortgagor will furnish evidence, satisfactory to Mortgagee, that (i)
     all insurance requirements (including provisions for waivers of
     subrogation) set forth in the Leases or any other agreements affecting the
     Property shall have been satisfied by each party thereto, (ii) Mortgagor's
     insurance coverage is sufficient (assuming the total destruction of the
     Property) to permit Mortgagor to rebuild the Improvements (including basic
     tenant improvements) and to replace Personalty (including the Fixtures) in
     such a manner as to enable the Property to be operable and rentable as it
     is currently rented and operated, and (iii) each tenant, required by the
     terms of its Lease to maintain insurance on its leased premises, has caused
     Mortgagee to be named as an additional insured or loss payee under such
     insurance policies.

     E.  Self-insurance (other than the applicable deductibles approved by
     Mortgagee) shall not satisfy the requirements of this PARAGRAPH 2.15.
                                                           -------------- 

     F.  All of Mortgagor's right, title and interest in and to all policies of
     insurance and any unearned premiums thereon are hereby assigned (to the
     fullest extent assignable) to Mortgagee, and in the event of foreclosure of
     this Mortgage, transfer pursuant to power of sale hereunder or other
     transfer of title or assignment of the Premises and the other Property, all
     right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to all policies of insurance
     required hereunder or otherwise then in force with respect thereto and all



                                      -18-
<PAGE>
 
     proceeds payable thereunder and any unearned premium thereon shall
     immediately vest in the purchaser or other transferee of the Property.

     G.  Upon expiration of any policy furnished pursuant to this PARAGRAPH
                                                                  ---------
     2.15, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with certificates of renewal
     ----
     policies together with evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee of Mortgagor's
     payment of the applicable premiums.

     H.  Mortgagor for itself, and on behalf of its insurers, hereby releases
     and waives any right to recover against Mortgagee on account of any
     liability for: (i) any loss or damage to property, including the property
     of any tenant or licensee of the Property; (ii) any loss or damage to the
     Improvements; (iii) any other direct or indirect loss or damage caused by
     fire or other risks, which loss or damage is covered by the insurance
     required to be carried hereunder by Mortgagor, or is otherwise insured or
     required to be insured; or (iv) claims arising by reason of any of the
     foregoing, irrespective of any negligence on the part of Mortgagee which
     may have contributed to such loss or damage.

2.16 ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES.  Mortgagor, within ten (10) business days after
     ---------------------

     detailed description thereof, (v) that, to the best of Mortgagor's
     knowledge, all Leases are in full force and effect and have not been
     modified (or if modified, setting forth all modifications), (vi) the date
     to which the rent, additional rent and other charges thereunder have been
     paid, (vii) whether or not, to the best knowledge of Mortgagor, any of the

     defaults, and (viii) as to any other matters reasonably requested by
     Mortgagee and reasonably related to the Leases, the Indebtedness, the
     Obligations, the Property or this Mortgage or other Loan Documents.
     Mortgagee, within ten (10) business days after Mortgagor's request, shall

2.17 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS.
     ------------------- 

     A.  Hazardous Wastes and Substances.  At its sole cost and expense,
         -------------------------------                                
     Mortgagor and Guarantor shall comply with all federal, state and local
     laws, rules, regulations and orders with respect to the discharge,
     generation, removal, transportation, storage and handling of hazardous or
     toxic wastes or substances, pay immediately when due the cost of removal of
     any such wastes or substances, and keep Property free of any lien imposed
     pursuant to such laws, rules, regulations and orders.  In the event
     Mortgagor or Guarantor fails to do so, and such failure shall continue for
     ten (10) days after notice from Mortgagee, Mortgagee may declare this
     Mortgage to be in default.  In addition, Mortgagor hereby grants Mortgagee
     and its employees and agents an irrevocable and non-exclusive license,
     subject to the rights of tenants, at all reasonable times and upon
     reasonable notice, to enter the Property to inspect, and (upon the
     expiration of the applicable cure period under this Mortgage) conduct
     testing and remove the hazardous wastes or substances.  The costs of such
     inspection, testing and removal shall immediately become due to Mortgagee
     and shall be secured by this Mortgage.  Mortgagor and Guarantor, jointly
     and severally, shall indemnify Mortgagee and hold Mortgagee harmless from
     and against all loss, liability, damage, claim, judgment, cost and expense
     (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and costs incurred in the
     investigation, defense and settlement of claims) that Mortgagee may incur
     as a result of or in connection with the assertion against Mortgagee of any
     claim relating to the presence or removal of any hazardous waste or
     substance referred to in this PARAGRAPH 2.17.A., or compliance with any
                                   -----------------                        
     federal, state or local laws, rules, regulations or orders relating
     thereto, provided, however, that this indemnity shall not apply if
     Mortgagor can conclusively prove that (A) the contamination of the Property
     was caused solely by actions, conditions, or events that occurred after the
     date that Mortgagee (or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale) actually
     acquired title to the Property and (B) the contamination of the Property
     was not caused by the direct or indirect actions of Mortgagor, any
     partner(s) or Mortgagor, any member(s). of Mortgagor, or any agent of
     Mortgagor.  These provisions shall survive any termination, satisfaction or
     foreclosure of this Mortgage and shall not be subject to the limitations on
     personal liability described in Section 7.30 of this Mortgage.

     B.  Asbestos.  Neither Mortgagor nor Guarantor shall install or permit to
         --------
     be installed on the Property friable asbestos or any substance containing
     asbestos and deemed hazardous by federal, state or local laws, rules,
     regulations or orders respecting such material. With respect to any such
     material currently present on the Property, Mortgagor and/or Guarantor
     shall promptly comply with such federal, state or local laws, rules,
     regulations or orders at Mortgagor's and/or Guarantor's expense. If
     Mortgagor or Guarantor shall fail to comply, Mortgagee may declare this
     Mortgage to be in default. In addition, Mortgagor hereby grants Mortgagee
     and its employees and agents an irrevocable and non-exclusive license
     subject to the rights of tenants, at all reasonable times and upon
     reasonable notice, to enter the Property to inspect, and



                                      -20-

     (upon the expiration of the applicable cure period under this Mortgage)
     conduct testing and remove friable asbestos or substances containing
     asbestos and deemed hazardous by federal, state or local laws, rules,
     regulations or orders respecting such material.  The costs of such
     inspection, testing and removal shall immediately become due to Mortgagee
     and shall be secured by this Mortgage.  Mortgagor and Guarantor, jointly
     and severally, shall indemnify Mortgagee and hold Mortgagee harmless from
     and against all loss, liability, damage, claim, judgment, cost and expense
     (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and costs incurred in the
     investigation, defense and settlement of claims) that Mortgagee may incur
     as a result of or in connection with

     (i) the assertion against Mortgagee of any claim relating to the presence
     or removal of any asbestos substance referred to in this PARAGRAPH 2.17.B.,
                                                              ------------------
     or (ii) compliance with any federal, state or local laws, rules,
     regulations or orders relating thereto.

     C.  The indemnities in SUBPARAGRAPHS A. and B. above shall survive any
                            -----------------                              
     termination, satisfaction or foreclosure of this Mortgage and shall not be
     subject to the limitation on personal liability described in the Note or in
     PARAGRAPH 7.30 hereof.
     ---------------       

2.18 ERISA.  Mortgagor and Guarantor hereby represent and warrant that Mortgagor
     -----                                                                      
     is not an "employee benefit plan" (within the meaning of section 3(3) of
     ERISA) to which ERISA applies, and Mortgagor's assets do not constitute
     assets of any such plan.

2.19 LEASES.
     ------ 

     A.  Mortgagor shall have the right to do the following with respect to
     existing Leases and new Leases affecting the Property: (a) Mortgagor may
     terminate any Lease (other than the Lease of a Major Tenant or a tenant
     leasing more than 24,000 square feet) which is in default; (b) Mortgagor
     may amend any Lease (other than the Lease of a Major Tenant or a tenant
     leasing more than 24,000 square feet) provided the amendment does not (i)
     increase the obligations of the landlord, (ii) decrease or accelerate the
     rent, or (iii) decrease the term; and (c) Mortgagor may enter into new
     Leases (or renew existing Leases) for premises of 24,000 square feet or
     less provided each Lease satisfies the minimum leasing requirements in
     Subparagraph B. of this PARAGRAPH 2.19 and is on Mortgagor's standard form
     ----------------        ---------------                                   
     lease (approved by Mortgagee) with no modifications that increase the
     obligations of the landlord.  Except as expressly provided in this
     PARAGRAPH 2.19 (or after obtaining Mortgagee's prior written consent),
     ---------------                                                       
     Mortgagor shall not (i) amend or modify any Lease, (ii) extend or renew
     (except in accordance with the existing Lease provisions, if any) any
     Lease (iii) terminate or accept the surrender of any Lease except in
     accordance with the terms of any Lease approved or deemed approved by
     Mortgagee, (iv) enter into any new Lease of the Property, or (v) accept any

                                      -21-
<PAGE>
 
B.  Minimum Leasing Requirements:  All new Leases covering the Property entered
    -----------------------------

     operating and maintenance costs.

     (iii) Minimum Rentals (without offsets, deductions, or concessions): The
     minimum rental for all space in the Premises shall be not less than $8.00

the leasing guidelines or was otherwise approved by Mortgagee, (ii) the request
is accompanied by payment to Mortgagee of Mortgagee's customary service fee as
established by Mortgagee from time to time, but no fee shall be required for the

                     ARTICLE 3 CASUALTIES AND CONDEMNATION

3.1  CASUALTIES AND INSURANCE PROCEED
     --------------------------------

A.   In the event of any damage to or loss or destruction of the Property,
Mortgagor will promptly notify Mortgagee of such event and take such steps as
shall be necessary to preserve any undamaged portion of the Property.  If,
pursuant to PARAGRAPH 3.1.B, hereof, the insurance proceeds are applied to the
            ---------------                                                   
restoration, replacement or rebuilding of the Property (but regardless of
whether such insurance proceeds, if any, shall be sufficient for the purpose),
Mortgagor will promptly commence and diligently pursue to completion the
restoration, replacement and rebuilding of the Property as nearly as possible to
its value, condition and character immediately prior to such damage, loss or
destruction, all in accordance with plans and specifications approved by
Mortgagee and with the remaining provisions of this PARAGRAPH 3.1.
                                                    ------------- 



                                      -22-
<PAGE>
 
B.   In the event that all or any portion of the Property is damaged, destroyed
or lost, and such damage, destruction or loss is covered, in whole or in part,
by insurance required under this Mortgage or otherwise maintained by Mortgagor,
then (i) Mortgagor shall notify its insurance company of any damage within five
(5) days after any such damage and make proof of loss within thirty (30)
business days after such damage, destruction, or loss and is hereby entitled to
settle, adjust or compromise any claims for damage, destruction or loss
thereunder (except that, if an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may, but shall
not be obligated to, make such proof of loss and settle any claims in connection
therewith), and (ii) all proceeds payable to Mortgagor thereunder will be
delivered to Mortgagee and, accordingly, each insurance company concerned is
hereby authorized and directed to make payment therefor directly to Mortgagee,
provided, however, if rental loss insurance is always paid on a monthly basis,
sufficient funds from the rental loss insurance shall be paid to Mortgagor to
pay operating expenses of the Property and debt service to Mortgagee.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein seemingly to the contrary, if the
aggregate amount of all claims for damage, destruction or loss is less than Five
Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) and for so long as no Event of
Default has occurred, Mortgagor may independently settle, adjust or compromise
such claims with Mortgagee involved as specified above, provided that Mortgagee
is promptly notified of any such settlement, adjustment or compromise.  In all
other cases, Mortgagee shall have the right to apply the insurance proceeds,
first, to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including adjustors'
and attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with the
collection of such proceeds, and, second, at Mortgagee's option, to pay all or
any part of the Indebtedness, whether or not then due and payable, in the order
and manner determined by Mortgagee, or to the cure of any then current default
hereunder, or to the restoration, replacement or rebuilding, in whole or in
part, of the portion of the Property damaged, destroyed or lost, provided that
any insurance proceeds held by Mortgagee to be applied to the restoration,
replacement or rebuilding of the Property shall be so held and shall be paid out
from time to time upon compliance by Mortgagor with such provisions and
requirements as may be imposed by Mortgagee.  To the extent that any
Indebtedness shall remain outstanding after such application of proceeds, the
unpaid Indebtedness will continue in full force and effect and Mortgagor will
not be excused in the payment thereof.  If such proceeds are insufficient to
effect the complete restoration, replacement or rebuilding of the Property,
Mortgagee may at its option declare the balance of the Indebtedness to be due
and payable forthwith and avail itself of any of the remedies provided herein or
in any of the other Loan Documents.  If Mortgagor shall have received all or any
portion of such insurance proceeds or any other proceeds relating to such damage
or destruction, Mortgagor, upon demand from Mortgagee, will pay to Mortgagee an
amount equal to the amount so received by Mortgagor, to be applied by Mortgagee
in accordance with this PARAGRAPH 3.1.B.  Notwithstanding anything herein or at
                        ---------------                                        
law or in equity to the contrary, none of the insurance proceeds or payments in
lieu thereof paid to Mortgagee as herein provided shall be deemed trust funds
and Mortgagee shall be


                                      -23-
<PAGE>
 
entitled to dispose of such proceeds as provided herein.  Mortgagor expressly
assumes all risk of loss, including a decrease in the use, enjoyment or value of
the Property, from any casualty whatsoever, whether or not insurable or insured
against.

C.   Anything in this PARAGRAPH 3.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, in the
                      -------------
event of an insured loss, Mortgagee will permit the application of insurance
proceeds to restoration of the Property to as good or better condition as
existed prior to the damage, destruction or loss, in accordance with plans and
specifications approved by Mortgagee in its reasonable discretion, if: (i) the
amount of the loss does not exceed Twenty Million and 00/100 Dollars
($20,000,000.00) or as otherwise approved by Mortgagee; (ii) no Event of
Default, or event which with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both
would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred or is continuing beyond any
applicable cure periods at the time of such application; (iii) no insurer denies
liability to any named insured; (iv) leases which are terminated or terminable
as a result of such damage, destruction or loss do not include any Leases to
Major Tenants and cover an aggregate rentable square footage of less than fifty
thousand (50,000) square feet in the Improvements, provided however, that if
Mortgagor obtains waivers from any tenants whose leases are terminable as a
result of such damage, those leases shall not be included when calculating the
maximum aggregate square footage allowed as above stated, and; (v) rental loss
insurance is available and in force and effect to offset fully any abatement of
rent to which any tenants of the Premises may be entitled as a result of such
damage, destruction or loss; (vi) in Mortgagee's sole judgment, restoration can
be completed within one year after the damage, destruction or loss and at least
two ears before the maturity of the Note; (vii) Mortgagor shall have entered
into a general construction contract acceptable in all respects to Mortgagee for
restoration, which contract must, among other things, include a provision for
retainage of not less than ten percent (10%) until complete restoration is
achieved, and a final completion date which is at least two years before the
maturity of the Loan; and (viii) in Mortgagee's reasonable judgement, the
security for the Loan must not have been in any other manner materially impaired
as a result of such damage, destruction or loss. In the event that Mortgagee
does not permit the application of the proceeds or other payment to the
restoration of the Property, Mortgagor shall have the right to repay the Loan
without Prepayment Premium.

D.   If Mortgagee elects or is obligated pursuant to PARAGRAPH 3.1.B. or
                                                     ----------------   
PARAGRAPH 3.1.C. hereof to apply insurance proceeds to the restoration of the
- -----------------                                                            
Property, the proceeds shall be disbursed pursuant to a disbursement procedure
established by Mortgagee, which may include, at Mortgagee's election, use of a
disbursing agent ("Depository") selected by Mortgagee.  The costs and expenses
of the disbursement procedure, including the fees and expenses of the
Depository, shall be paid by Mortgagor.  Mortgagor will immediately, upon demand
by Mortgagee, from time to time deposit with Mortgagee or Depository, in a
mutually acceptable interest-bearing account, such amounts in excess of the
amount from time to time on deposit as may


                                      -24-
<PAGE>
 
be necessary to complete such restoration in Mortgagee's sole judgment and such
amounts shall be the first to be disbursed by Mortgagee hereunder.  Under no
circumstance will the Mortgagee be obligated to make any portion of the proceeds
available for restoration unless at the time of the request for any disbursement
it has determined in its reasonable discretion that the restoration can be
completed at a cost (which cost shall include all payments coming due under the
terms of the Loan) which does not exceed the aggregate of the remaining proceeds
and any funds deposited with Mortgagee by Mortgagor.  If Mortgagor shall fail to
timely complete the restoration of the Property as determined by Mortgagee in
its sole discretion, or if an Event of Default occurs prior to full disbursement
of the insurance proceeds, any undisbursed portion may, at Mortgagee's option,
be applied to the Indebtedness, whether or not then due and in any order of
priority, and such application shall be deemed a prepayment of the Indebtedness.

E.   The proceeds, including any loss of rental income insurance proceeds which
have been deposited with Mortgagee or which the carrier has acknowledged to be
payable, and any additional funds deposited by Mortgagor with Mortgagee, shall
constitute additional security for the Loan.  Mortgagor will execute, deliver,
file and/or record, at its own expense, such documents and instruments as
Mortgagee may require to grant to Mortgagee a perfected, first priority security
interest in such proceeds and additional funds.

3.2  CONDEMNATION.
     ------------ 

     A.  Promptly upon obtaining knowledge of any pending or threatened
     institution of any proceedings for the condemnation of the Property, or any
     part or interest therein, or of any right of eminent domain, or of any
     other proceedings arising out of injury or damage to or decrease in the
     value of the Property (including any change in any street, whether as to
     grade, access or otherwise), or any part thereof or interest therein,
     Mortgagor will notify Mortgagee of the threat or pendency thereof.
     Mortgagee may participate in any such proceedings (but shall not be
     obligated to do so), the cost of which, including the reasonable fees and
     expenses of attorneys and agents selected by Mortgagee, shall be borne by
     Mortgagor.  Mortgagor from time to time will execute and deliver to
     Mortgagee all instruments requested by Mortgagee or as may be required to
     permit such participation.  Mortgagor will, at its expense, diligently
     prosecute any such proceeding, will deliver to Mortgagee copies of all
     papers served in connection therewith and will consult and cooperate with
     Mortgagee, its attorneys and agents, in the carrying on and defense of any
     such proceeding; provided that no settlement of any such proceeding will be
     made by Mortgagor without Mortgagee's prior written consent.

     B.  All proceeds of condemnation awards or proceeds of sale in lieu of
     condemnation, and all judgments, decrees and awards for injury or damage to
     the Property are hereby assigned and shall be paid to Mortgagee.  Mortgagor
     will execute and deliver



                                      -25-
<PAGE>
 
     such further assignments thereof as Mortgagee may request and authorizes
     Mortgagee to collect and receive the same, to give receipts and
     acquittances therefor and to appeal from any such judgment, decree or
     award.  Mortgagee shall in no event be liable or responsible for failure to
     collect, or to exercise diligence in the collection of, any of the same, or
     be obligated to question the amount of the same.

     C.  Mortgagee will apply any proceeds, judgments, decrees or awards
     referred to in PARAGRAPH 3.2.B. hereof, first to reimburse Mortgagee for
                    ---------------                                          
     all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
     disbursements, incurred in connection with the proceeding in question and
     any appeal therefrom or in the collection of such amounts, and, second, to
     apply the remainder thereof as provided in PARAGRAPH 3.1.B. hereof for
                                                ---------------            
     insurance proceeds held by Mortgagee.  If, pursuant to those provisions,
     Mortgagee applies such proceeds, judgments, decrees or awards to the
     restoration, replacement or rebuilding of the affected Property, Mortgagor
     will restore, replace or rebuild the Property in accordance therewith.  If
     Mortgagor receives all or any portion of such proceeds, judgments, decrees
     or awards, Mortgagor, upon demand from Mortgagee, will pay to Mortgagee an
     amount equal to the amount so received by Mortgagor, to be applied by
     Mortgagee pursuant to this PARAGRAPH 3.2. Notwithstanding anything herein
                                -------------                                 
     or at law or in equity to the contrary, none of the proceeds, judgments,
     decrees or awards or payments in lieu thereof paid to Mortgagee as herein
     provided will be deemed trust funds and Mortgagee will be entitled to
     dispose of such proceeds as provided in this PARAGRAPH 3.2.
                                                  --------- --- 

     D.  Anything in this PARAGRAPH 3.2 to the contrary notwithstanding, in the
                          --------------                                       
     event of a partial taking, Mortgagee will permit the application of any
     condemnation award or other payment to the restoration of the Property
     (including, but not limited to, parking, drives, recreational areas,
     sidewalks and landscaping) to as good or better condition as theretofore
     existed, in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Mortgagee
     in its reasonable discretion, if: (i) such taking involves less than five
     percent (5%) of the rentable square feet in the Improvements and less than
     five percent (5%) of the parking spaces, and does not affect access to the
     Property (or any part thereof) from any public right-of-way or as otherwise
     approved by Mortgagee; (ii) no Event of Default, or event which with the
     passage of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute an Event
     of Default, has occurred or is continuing at the time of such application;
     (iii) Leases which are terminated or terminable as a result of such damage,
     destruction or loss do not include any Leases to Major Tenants and cover an
     aggregate rentable square footage of less than five percent (5%) of the
     total rentable square footage in the Improvements immediately before such
     damage, destruction or loss; (iv) the remaining Property continues at all
     times to comply with all applicable Laws and Restrictions; and (v) in
     Mortgagee's sole judgment, (a) restoration is practicable and can be'
     completed within one year after the taking and at least two years prior to
     the maturity of the Note, and (b) the Property will be economically viable
     after restoration.  In the event that Mortgagee does not permit the



                                      -26-
<PAGE>
 
     application of the condemnation award or other payment to the restoration
     of the Property, Mortgagor shall have the right to repay the Loan without
     Prepayment Premium.



     E.  Notwithstanding any condemnation, taking or other proceeding referred
     to in this PARAGRAPH 3.2 causing injury to or decrease in value of the
                -------------                                              
     Premises or any interest therein, Mortgagor will continue to timely pay and
     perform the Obligations.  The reduction in the Obligations resulting from
     an application of any proceeds, judgments, decrees or awards, shall be
     deemed to take effect only on the date Mortgagee actually receives and
     applies such proceeds, judgments, decrees, or awards against the
     Obligations.  Mortgagee's rights to any such proceeds, judgments, decrees
     or awards will not be diminished if, before Mortgagee's receipt of the
     same, the Property shall have been sold through foreclosure of this
     Mortgage (or pursuant to the power of sale granted hereunder), or shall
     have been transferred by deed in lieu of foreclosure.

                          ARTICLE 4 EVENTS OF DEFAULT
                                        

4.1  EVENTS OF DEFAULT.
     ----------------- 

     A. It shall constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder if any of the
     following events shall occur:

         (i)   Mortgagor shall fail to perform on the required date any
         Obligation (a) involving the payment of money other than monthly
         installments of principal and interest within ten (10) days after
         notice by Mortgagee, or (b) involving the payment of principal and/or
         interest under the Note within four (4) days after notice by Mortgagee
         (the "Monthly Payment Grace Period"), provided however, in the event
         that Mortgagor shall fail to pay any installment of principal and/or
         interest due on the Note on the Monthly Due Date (as such term is
         defined in the Note) more than (i) two (2) times in any twelve month
         period, or (ii) four (4) times in the aggregate during the term hereof,
         the Monthly Payment Grace Period shall terminate, and thereafter, upon
         the failure to pay any installment of principal and/or interest on the
         Monthly Due Date, Mortgagee shall have the option of declaring all of
         the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable;

         (ii)  Mortgagor shall fail to timely observe, perform or discharge any
         non-monetary Obligation, other than a non-monetary Obligation described
         in any other clause in this Article 4, and any such failure shall
                                     ---------                            
         remain unremedied for thirty (30) days or such lesser period as may be
         otherwise specified in the applicable Loan Document (the "Grace
         Period") after



                                      -27-
<PAGE>
 
     written notice to Mortgagor of the occurrence of such failure; provided,
     however, that Mortgagee shall extend the Grace Period up to one hundred
     eighty (180) days if (a) Mortgagee determines in good faith that (A) such
     default cannot be cured within the Grace Period but can be cured within one
     hundred eighty (180) days, (B) no lien or security interest created by the
     Loan Documents shall be impaired prior to the completion of such cure, and
     (C) Mortgagee's immediate exercise of any remedies provided hereunder or by
     law is not necessary for the protection or preservation of the Property or
     Mortgagee's security interest therein, and (b) Mortgagor shall immediately
     commence and diligently pursue the cure of such default;

     (iii)  Mortgagor, as lessor or sublessor, as the case may be, shall assign
     the Rents without first obtaining the written consent of Mortgagee;

     (iv)   default by Mortgagor after the expiration of all applicable grace or
     cure periods under any agreement to which Mortgagor is a party, other than
     the Loan Documents, which agreement relates to the borrowing of money by
     Mortgagor from any Person, and such default might give rise to a Material
     Adverse Change or adversely affect the security for the Loan, including a
     default by Mortgagor under the loan documents evidencing or relating to a
     junior lien on the Property;

     (v)    any representation or warranty made by Mortgagor in, under or
     pursuant to any of the Loan Documents was false in any material respect as
     of the date on which such representation or warranty was made or deemed
     remade;

     (vi)   any of the Loan Documents shall cease to be in full force and effect
     or be declared null and void, or shall cease to constitute valid and
     subsisting liens and/or valid and perfected security interests in and to
     the Property, or Mortgagor shall contest or deny in writing that it has any
     further liability or obligation under any of the Loan Documents;

     (vii)  the occurrence of a Transfer without the Mortgagee's prior written
     consent (as required under the provisions of PARAGRAPH 2.13 hereof); or the
                                                  ---------------               
     occurrence of any other event which, under the terms of the Loan Documents,
     would permit Mortgagee to accelerate the Obligations after the expiration
     of the applicable cure periods, if any;

     (viii) Mortgagor shall fail at any time to satisfy the requirements of
     PARAGRAPH 2.15 hereof and such failure shall continue for five (5) days
     --------------                                                         
     after written notice thereof;



                                      -28-
<PAGE>
 
     (ix) any Principal Party shall generally not pay its debts as they become
     due or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts, or shall have
     made a general assignment for the benefit of creditors;

     (x) any Principal Party shall commence any case, proceeding or other action
     seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution
     or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy,
     insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking to have an
     order for relief entered against it as debtor, or seeking appointment of a
     Receiver for it or for all or any substantial part of its property
     (collectively, a "Proceeding");

     (xi) any Principal Party shall take any action to authorize any of the
     actions set forth above in clauses (ix) or (x) above; or

     (xii) any Proceeding shall be commenced against any Principal Party and
     such Proceeding (1) materially affects the ability of Mortgagor or
     Guarantor to satisfy the Obligations, (2) results in the entry of an order
     for relief against it which is not fully stayed within seven (7) business
     days after the entry thereof; (3) remains undismissed for a period of
     forty-five (45) days, and (4) Debt Service Coverage is 1.0 or less at the
     time either (2) or (3), above, become applicable.

                               ARTICLE 5 REMEDIES
                                        
5.1  ACCELERATION.   Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance of any
     --------------                                                        
     Event of Default, Mortgagee may at any time declare all of the Indebtedness
     to be due and payable and the same shall thereupon become immediately due
     and payable, together with all payments due in accordance with the terms of
     the Note, without any further presentment, demand, protest or notice of any
     kind.

5.2  FORECLOSURE: EXPENSE OF LITIGATION; INDEMNIFICATION.  If an Event of
     ---------------------------------------------------                 
     Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, or when the indebtedness
     hereby secured, or any part thereof, shall become due, whether by
     acceleration or otherwise, Mortgagee shall have the right to foreclose the
     lien hereof with respect to all or any part of the Property, and for such
     indebtedness or part thereof and pursue all remedies afforded to a
     mortgagee under all applicable laws.  In case of any foreclosure sale of
     less than all of the Property, Mortgagee shall have the right to foreclose
     the lien hereof with respect to all or any part of the remaining Property,
     for any remaining unpaid portion of the indebtedness secured hereby.  In
     case of any foreclosure sale of the Property, the same may be sold in one
     or more parcels.



                                      -29-
<PAGE>
 
          It is further agreed that if Mortgagor defaults in the payment of any
     part of the Indebtedness, as an alternative to the right of foreclosure for
     the full Indebtedness after acceleration thereof, Mortgagee shall have the
     right to institute partial foreclosure proceedings with respect to the
     portion of the Indebtedness so in default, as if under a full foreclosure,
     and without declaring the entire Indebtedness due (such proceeding being
     hereinafter referred to as a "partial foreclosure"), and provided that if
     foreclosure judgment is entered pursuant to a partial foreclosure
     proceeding because of default of a part of the Indebtedness, such judgment
     and sale pursuant thereto may be made subject to the continuing lien of
     this Mortgage for the unmatured part of the Indebtedness; and it is agreed
     that such judgment or sale pursuant to a partial foreclosure, if so made,
     shall not in any manner affect the unmatured part of the Indebtedness, but
     as to such unmatured part this Mortgage and the lien hereof shall remain in
     full force and effect just as though no foreclosure judgment or sale had
     been entered or made under the provisions of this PARAGRAPH 5.2.
                                                       -------------  
     Notwithstanding the filing of any partial foreclosure or entry of a
     judgment of foreclosure therein, Mortgagee may elect at any time prior to a
     foreclosure sale pursuant to such judgment, to discontinue such partial
     foreclosure and to accelerate the Indebtedness by reason of any uncured
     default or defaults upon which such partial foreclosure was predicated or
     by reason of any other defaults, and proceed with full foreclosure
     proceedings.  It is further agreed that several foreclosure sales may be
     made pursuant to partial foreclosure without exhausting the right of full
     or partial foreclosure sale for any unmatured part of the Indebtedness, it
     being the purpose to provide for a partial foreclosure sale of the
     Indebtedness for any matured portion of the Indebtedness without exhausting
     the power to foreclose and to sell the Property, pursuant to any such
     partial foreclosure for any other part of the Indebtedness whether matured
     at the time or subsequently maturing, and without exhausting any right of
     acceleration and full foreclosure.

          Without limiting the liability of Mortgagor as set forth above,
     Mortgagor shall indemnify Mortgagee and its officers, directors, employees
     and agents, and hold them harmless from and against all claims, injury,
     damage, loss and liability of any and every kind to any persons or property
     (unless caused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of Mortgagee)
     by reason of (i) any construction work undertaken at the Property by any
     person or entity; (ii) the operation or maintenance of the Property; or
     (iii) any other action or inaction by, or matter which is the
     responsibility of Mortgagor.

5.3  APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS OF FORECLOSURE SALE. The proceeds of any
     -------------------------------------------
     foreclosure sale of the Property shall be distributed and applied in
     accordance with the provisions of applicable law. The judgment of
     foreclosure or order confirming the sale shall provide for application of
     sale proceeds in the following order of priority: first, all items which
     under the terms hereof constitute secured indebtedness additional to that
     evidenced by the Note, with interest thereon as herein provided; and
     second, all amounts remaining unpaid on the Note.



                                      -30-
<PAGE>
 
5.4  APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER.  Upon, or at any time after the filing of a
     --------------------------                                          
     complaint to foreclose this Mortgage, the court in which such complaint is
     filed shall appoint a receiver of the Property whenever Mortgagee, when
     entitled to possession, so requests pursuant to applicable law or when such
     appointment is otherwise authorized by operation of law.  Such receiver
     shall have all powers and duties prescribed by applicable law, including
     the power to make leases to be binding upon all parties, including the
     Mortgagor, after redemption (if applicable), the purchaser at a sale
     pursuant to a judgment of foreclosure and any Person acquiring an interest
     in the Property after entry of a judgment of foreclosure, all as provided
     by applicable law.  In addition, such receiver shall also have the
     following powers: (a) to extend or modify any then existing leases, which
     extensions and modifications may provide for terms to expire, or for
     options to lessees to extend or renew terms to expire, beyond the maturity
     date of the indebtedness hereunder and beyond the date of the issuance of a
     deed or deeds to a purchaser or purchasers at a foreclosure sale, it being
     understood and agreed that any such leases, and the options or other such
     provisions to be contained therein, shall be binding upon Mortgagor and all
     persons whose interests in the Property are subject to the lien hereof and
     upon the purchaser or purchasers at any foreclosure sale, notwithstanding
     any redemption, discharge of the Indebtedness, satisfaction of any
     foreclosure decree or judgment, or issuance of any certificate of sale or
     deed to any purchaser; and (b) all other powers which may be necessary or
     are usual in such cases for the protection, possession, control, management
     and operation of the Property during the whole of the period of
     receivership.  The court from time to time, either before or after entry of
     judgment of foreclosure, may authorize the receiver to apply the net income
     in his hands in payment in whole or in part of: (a) the Indebtedness
     secured hereby, or by or included in any judgment of foreclosure or
     supplemental judgment or other item for which Mortgagee is authorized to
     make a Protective Advance; and (b) the deficiency in case of a sale and
     deficiency.

5.5  MORTGAGEE'S RIGHT OF POSSESSION IN CASE OF DEFAULT.  In any case in which
     --------------------------------------------------                       
     under the provisions of this Mortgage Mortgagee has a right to institute
     foreclosure proceedings, whether before or after the entire indebtedness
     secured hereby is declared to be immediately due as aforesaid, or whether
     before or after the institution of legal proceedings to foreclose the lien
     hereof or before or after judgment thereunder, and at all times until
     confirmation of sale, Mortgagor shall forthwith, upon demand of Mortgagee,
     surrender the Property to Mortgagee and Mortgagee shall be entitled to take
     possession of the Property, and upon Mortgagee's request to the court to be
     placed in actual possession of the Property, Mortgagee shall be placed in
     possession of the Property or any part thereof, personally, or by its agent
     or attorneys as provided by applicable law.  In such event Mortgagee in its
     discretion may, with or without force and with or without process of law,
     enter upon and take and maintain possession or may apply to the court in
     which a foreclosure is pending to be placed in possession, of all or any
     part of said Property, together with all documents, books, records, papers
     and accounts of Mortgagor or then owner of the Property relating thereto,
     and may exclude Mortgagor, its agents or servants, wholly therefrom and



                                      -31-
<PAGE>

     shall also have all other power, authority and duties as provided by
     applicable law.

          Mortgagee shall not be obligated to perform or discharge, nor does it
     hereby undertake to perform or discharge, any obligation, duty or liability
     under any Leases.  Mortgagor shall and does hereby agree to indemnify and

     which it may or might incur by reason of its performance or non-performance
     of any action authorized under this PARAGRAPH 5.5, and of and from any and

5.6  MORTGAGEE'S PERFORMANCE OF DEFAULTED ACTS; PROTECTIVE ADVANCES;
     ---------------------------------------------------------------
     SUBROGATION.  In case Mortgagor fails to perform any of its covenants and
     -----------
     agreements herein or in any of the Loan Documents, Mortgagee may, but need
     not, make any payment or perform any act herein or therein required of
     Mortgagor, in any form and manner deemed expedient, and may, but need not,
     make full or partial payments of principal or interest on any Prior
     Encumbrances (as hereinafter defined), if any, and purchase, discharge,
     compromise or settle any tax lien or other prior lien or title or claim
     thereof, or redeem from any tax sale or forfeiture affecting the Property
     or contest any tax or assessment.

          In the event Mortgagee shall elect, pursuant to this PARAGRAPH 5.6, to

     Mortgagee shall not be required to restore or rebuild the improvements to
     any greater extent than will be covered by available proceeds or estimated
     proceeds of insurance or condemnation award.  An estimate of available
     proceeds may be made if at such time as Mortgagee is prepared to arrange
     for plans, solicit bids, let a contract, or otherwise proceed with
     restoration, the loss shall not have been adjusted with insurers or the
     court shall not have finally determined the amount of a condemnation award.
     If Mortgagee shall have expended any amount for restoration or rebuilding
     in excess of the actual or estimated proceeds of insurance or condemnation
     award for the purpose of such repair or replacement, the amount of such
     excess ("Excess Restoration Cost") so expended by Mortgagee shall
     constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall be secured by the
     lien hereof.

          All advances, disbursements and expenditures (collectively "advances")
     made by Mortgagee before and during foreclosure, prior to sale, and where
     applicable, after sale, for the following purposes, including interest
     thereon at the Default Rate, are hereinafter referred to as "Protective

          documents and expert evidence, witness fees, stenographer's charges,
          publication costs, and costs (which may be estimated as to items to be
          expended after entry of judgment) of procuring all such abstracts of
          title, title charges and examinations, foreclosure minutes, title
          insurance policies, Torrens certificates, appraisals, and similar data
          and assurances with respect to title and value as Mortgagee may deem
          reasonably necessary either to prosecute or defend such suit or, in

                       -------------       

          (i)  expenses deductible from proceeds of sale referred to in
          Subsections (a) and (b) of Section 15-1512 of the Act; and

          (j)  expenses incurred and expenditures made by Mortgagee for any one
          or more of the following:

          receiver or mortgagee takes possession of the Property imposed by
          Subsection (c)(1) of Section 15-1704 of the Act (iv) payments required
          or deemed by Mortgagee to be for the benefit of the Property or
          required to be made by the owner of the Property under any grant or

          instruments creating covenants or restrictions for the benefit of or
          affecting the Property; (v) shared or common expense assessments
          payable to any association or corporation in which the owner of the

     The Protective Advances shall, except to the extent, if any, that any of

security hereunder, the Mortgagee shall be subrogated to any and all rights,
equal or superior titles, liens and equities, owned or claimed by any owner or

     ----------------------                                                
     security for the performance of the Obligations, its sale or foreclosure,

     may be prior to, subsequent to, or joined or otherwise contemporaneous with
     any sale or foreclosure hereunder.

     -------------                                                         
     subject and subordinate in whole or in part (but not with respect to
     priority of entitlement to any insurance proceeds, damages, awards, or
     compensation resulting from damage to the Property or condemnation or
     exercise of power of eminent domain), to any and all contracts of sale
     and/or any and all Leases upon the execution by Mortgagee and recording
     thereof in the appropriate real estate records office of the county where

     pay any cost or expense incurred in connection with the issuance thereof.

     ----------------                                                        
     between Mortgagor and Mortgagee relative to the Loan and the same shall not
     be amended except by a written instrument duly executed by each of
     Mortgagor and Mortgagee. The foregoing notwithstanding, the terms and the
     conditions of the Application shall survive the funding of the Loan, but in

     security for any obligations secured hereby, it may enforce the terms
     thereof or otherwise realize upon the same, at its option, either before or
     concurrently herewith or after a sale is made hereunder, and may apply the
     proceeds to the Indebtedness without affecting the status of or waiving any
     right to exhaust all or any other security, including the security

     whether exercised hereunder or contained herein or in any such other
     security.

     ----------------------                                                   
     maximum amount permitted by law, for any statement regarding the
     Obligations requested by Mortgagor or in its behalf, subject to SECTION
                                                                     -------
     2.19(C) hereof.
     -------        

7.13 USURY.  In the event that Mortgagee determines that any charge, fee or
     -----                                                                 
     interest paid or agreed to be paid in connection with the Loan may, under

                                      -40-
<PAGE>
 
     laws, cause the interest rate on the Loan to exceed the maximum permitted
     by law, then such charges, fees or interest shall be reduced and any
     amounts actually paid in excess of the maximum interest permitted by such
     laws shall be applied by Mortgagee to reduce the outstanding principal
     balance of the Loan.  The parties intend that Mortgagor shall not be
     required to pay, and Mortgagee shall not be entitled to collect, interest

     6045(e) shall be prepared, filed by and sent to the appropriate parties by
     Mortgagor.  To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee shall have no
     responsibility to perform such services; provided however, that upon demand
     Mortgagor shall reimburse Mortgagee for any costs incurred by Mortgagee in
     doing so and shall also pay such fee as Mortgagee may reasonably and
     lawfully request.

7.16 DESTRUCTION OF NOTE.  Mortgagor shall, if the Note is mutilated or
     -------------------                                               
     destroyed by any cause whatsoever, or otherwise lost or stolen and
     regardless of whether due to the act or neglect of Mortgagee, execute and
     deliver to Mortgagee in substitution therefor a duplicate promissory note
     containing the same terms and conditions as the Note, within ten (10) days
     after Mortgagee notifies Mortgagor of any such mutilation, destruction,
     loss or theft of the Note.  Any new promissory note executed and delivered
     hereunder shall be in full substitution for the Note, shall not constitute
     any new or additional indebtedness of Mortgagor to Mortgagee, shall
     constitute solely a substitute evidence of the Indebtedness evidenced by
     the original Note, and shall not affect in any manner the priority of this
     Mortgage, or any other document or instrument executed in connection with
     or evidencing or securing the Indebtedness under the Note.  Failure or
     delay by Mortgagee to notify Mortgagor hereunder shall not affect in any
     manner Mortgagor's liability for the Indebtedness under the Note or
     Mortgagor's obligation to execute a new promissory note hereunder; and
     Mortgagor's failure to execute a new promissory note on Mortgagee's request
     hereunder shall likewise not affect Mortgagor's liability for the
     Indebtedness under the Note.

7.17 INDEMNIFICATION AND DEFENSE.
     --------------------------- 

     A.  Mortgagor will pay and indemnify, defend, and hold Mortgagee and its
     agents harmless from and against all liability, loss, claims, damage, cost

     by Mortgagee together with the allocated costs of internal legal counsel)
     that Mortgagee might incur (i) in connection with the making, administering
     and/or servicing of the Loan (including



                                      -41-
<PAGE>
 
     brokerage commissions or fees of any kind with respect to the Application
     or commitment issued pursuant thereto or the Loan), (ii) the enforcement of
     any of Mortgagee's rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, (iii) by
     reason of any failure of any representation or warranty made by Mortgagor
     or the failure of Mortgagor to perform any Obligation, or (iv) by reason or
     in defense of any and all claims and demands whatsoever that may be
     asserted against Mortgagee arising out of or in connection with the
     Property or the Loan.

     B.  Whenever, under any Loan Document, Mortgagor is obligated to indemnify
     and/or defend Mortgagee, or Mortgagor is obligated to defend or prosecute
     any action or proceeding, then Mortgagee shall have the right to
     participate in such prosecution or defense using counsel of Mortgagee's
     choice, and all costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with
     such participation (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) shall
     be reimbursed by Mortgagor to Mortgagee.  In addition, Mortgagee shall have
     the right to approve any counsel retained by Mortgagor in connection with
     the prosecution or defense of any such action or proceeding by Mortgagor.

     proceedings prosecuted or required to be defended by Mortgagor, or which
     are subject to Mortgagor's indemnity obligations, under this Mortgage,
     promptly after the receipt by Mortgagor of notice of the existence of any
     such proceeding, but in no event later than five (5) days thereafter.

     C.  Should Mortgagee incur any liability, loss, claim, damage, cost or
     expense required to be reimbursed by Mortgagor to Mortgagee hereunder and
     Mortgagor does not reimburse Mortgagee within ten (10) days after written
     notice to Mortgagor, the amount thereof with interest thereon at the
     Default Rate shall constitute part of the Indebtedness, shall be payable by
     Mortgagor upon demand and shall be secured by this Mortgage.

     D.  Mortgagor's obligations under this PARAGRAPH 7.17 shall not be
                                            --------------             
     affected by the absence or unavailability of insurance covering any such
     obligations or by the failure by or refusal of any insurance carrier to
     perform any obligations on its part under any such insurance policy.

7.18 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.
     ---------------------- 

     A.  The provisions hereof shall be binding upon Mortgagor and the heirs,
     devises, representatives, successors and assigns of Mortgagor, including
     successors in interest of Mortgagor in and to all or any part of the
     Property, and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee and its heirs,
     successors, substitutes and assigns.  All references in this Mortgage to
     Mortgagor, or Mortgagee shall be construed as including all of such other
     persons with respect to the person referred to.  Where two or more Persons
     have executed this Mortgage, the obligations of such Persons shall be joint
     and



                                      -42-
<PAGE>
 
     several, and each reference to Mortgagor herein shall mean each of such
     Persons, except to the extent the context clearly indicates otherwise.

     B.  Mortgagee shall have the right, in its sole discretion, at any time and
     from time to time, to sell, assign, syndicate, participate out, or
     otherwise transfer and/or dispose of all or any portion of its interest in
     this Mortgage, the Note and the Obligations (provided that such transfer
     is not made to an entity that would materially adversely affect Mortgagor's
     ERISA representations and warranties under the Loan Documents), and, in
     connection therewith, Mortgagor hereby covenants and agrees that it will
     (i) permit Mortgagee and any prospective successor or participant
     Mortgagee, or any of their respective agents, access to the Premises during
     reasonable hours for inspection of same, and (ii) permit Mortgagee to
     submit to third parties any financial data and other information furnished
     by Mortgagor or any other person to Mortgagee in connection with the
     operation of the Premises.  Any such third parties will agree to be bound
     by a confidentiality agreement.  Mortgagor further covenants and agrees
     that, at the request of Mortgagee and in connection with any such sale,
     assignment or other transfer, Mortgagor shall cooperate as requested, and
     shall provide such representations, warranties, agreements and documents as
     are customary and usual in the marketplace or as may be reasonably required
     by Mortgagee in any such sale, assignment or other transfer, and shall use
     diligent efforts to obtain such documents and agreements from tenants and
     other third parties as may be reasonably requested (provided that Mortgagor
     shall not be required to incur (i) any liability beyond the scope of the
     Loan Documents, or (ii) any material  expense).

7.19 INTERPRETATION.  When the identity of the parties or other circumstances
     --------------                                                          
     make it appropriate, the masculine gender shall include the feminine and/or
     neuter, and the singular number shall include the plural.  Specific
     enumeration of rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee and of acts which
     they may do and of acts Mortgagor must do or not do shall not exclude or
     limit the general.  The headings of each Article and Paragraph are for
     convenience and do not limit or construe the contents of any provision
     hereof.  The provisions of the Loan Documents shall be construed as a whole
     according to their common meaning, not strictly for or against any party
     and consistent with the provisions herein contained, in order to achieve
     the objectives and purposes of such documents.  Each party and its counsel
     has reviewed and revised the Loan Documents and agree that the normal rule
     of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved
     against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of
     such document.  The use in the Loan Documents of the words "including",
     "such as", or words of similar import when following any general term,
     statement or matter shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or
     matter to the specific items or matters, whether or not language of non-
     limitation such as "without limitation" or "but not limited to", or words
     of similar import are used with reference thereto, but rather shall be
     deemed to refer to all other items or matters that could reasonably fall
     within the broadest possible scope of such statement, term or matter.
     References to "foreclosure" and related phrases shall be deemed references
     to

                                      -43-
<PAGE>
 
     the appropriate procedure in connection with Mortgagee's private power of
     sale, if any, as well as any judicial foreclosure proceeding or a
     conveyance in lieu of foreclosure.

7.20 COMMINGLING OF FUNDS.  Any and all sums collected or retained by Mortgagee
     --------------------                                                      
     hereunder (including insurance and condemnation proceeds and any deposits
     made by Mortgagor with Mortgagee or any agent thereof) shall not be deemed
     to be held in trust, and Mortgagee may commingle such funds or proceeds
     with its general assets and shall not be liable for the payment of any
     interest or other return thereon, except to the extent otherwise required
     by law.

7.21 SURVIVAL.  All representations, warranties and covenants of Mortgagor
     --------                                                             
     contained in this Mortgage or any other Loan Document, or incorporated by
     reference herein or therein, shall survive the execution and delivery of
     this Mortgage and shall remain continuing covenants, warranties and
     representations of Mortgagor so long as any portion of the Obligations
     remains outstanding, except to the extent otherwise expressly provided to
     the contrary.

7.22 ADDITIONAL SECURITY.  No other security now existing, or hereafter taken,
     -------------------                                                      
     to secure the Obligations shall be impaired or affected by the execution of
     this Mortgage; and all additional security shall be taken, considered and
     held cumulatively.  The taking of additional security, execution of partial
     releases of the security, or any extension of the time of payment of the
     Indebtedness shall not diminish the force, effect or lien of this Mortgage
     and shall not affect or impair the liability of any maker, surety,
     guarantor or endorser for the payment of said Indebtedness.  Neither the
     acceptance of this Mortgage nor its enforcement, whether by court action or
     pursuant to the power of sale or other powers herein contained, shall
     prejudice or in any manner affect Mortgagee's right to realize upon or
     enforce any other security now or hereafter held by Mortgagee, it being
     agreed that Mortgagee shall be entitled to enforce this Mortgage and any
     other security now or hereafter held by Mortgagee in such order and manner
     as it may in its absolute discretion determine.

7.23 NO MERGER.  So long as any of the Indebtedness shall remain unpaid or
     ---------                                                            
     Mortgagor shall have any further obligation under the Loan Documents,
     unless Mortgagee shall otherwise consent in writing, the fee estate of
     Mortgagor in the Property or any part thereof shall not merge, by operation
     of law or otherwise, with any leasehold or other estate in the Property or
     any part thereof, but shall always be kept separate and distinct therefrom,
     notwithstanding the union of said fee estate and such leasehold or other
     estate in Mortgagor or any other Person.

7.24 PERFORMANCE BV MORTGAGOR.  If Mortgagor fails to faithfully perform each
     ------------------------                                                
     and, every Obligation to be performed by Mortgagor, Mortgagee, without
     demand or notice, may do any or all things necessary to perform the
     Obligations of Mortgagor under the pertinent instrument.

                                      -44-

7.25 RECOVERY OF EXPENSES.  All sums expended by Mortgagee in the exercise of
     --------------------                                                    
     any of their rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, including
     Mortgagee's rights under PARAGRAPH 2.8, PARAGRAPH 2.9 and PARAGRAPH 7.24
                              -------------- --------------    --------------
     hereof, and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection
     therewith (including the reasonable fees and costs of attorneys and
     consultants) shall (i) be immediately due and payable on demand, (ii) if
     not repaid within ten (10) days after written notice to Mortgagee, accrue
     interest at the Default Rate from the date of expenditure by Mortgagee, and
     (iii) be added to the Indebtedness and secured by the Loan Documents prior
     to any right, title or interest in or claim upon the Property attaching or
     accruing subsequent to the lien of this Mortgage.

7.26 STANDARDS OF DISCRETION.  Nothing contained in this Mortgage, the Note, or
     -----------------------                                                   
     any other Loan Documents, shall limit the right of Mortgagee to exercise
     its business judgment, or act, in a subjective manner with respect to any
     matter as to which it has specifically been granted such right or the right
     to act in its discretion or judgment hereunder or thereunder, whether
     "objectively" reasonable, under the circumstances.  Any such exercise shall
     not be deemed inconsistent with any covenant of good faith and fair dealing
     otherwise implied by law to be a part of this Mortgage; and the parties
     intend by the foregoing to set forth and affirm their entire understanding
     with respect to the terms, covenants and conditions and standards pursuant
     to which their rights, duties and obligations are to be judged, their
     performance measured, and the parameters within which Mortgagee's
     discretion may be exercised hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

7.27 COUNTERPARTS.  This Mortgage may be executed in any number of counterparts
     ------------                                                              
     with the same effect as if all parties hereto 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.

7.28 PREPAYMENT.  Mortgagor may prepay the Loan only on the terms and conditions
     ----------                                                                 
     set forth in the Note and Mortgagor will pay Mortgagee the Prepayment
     Premiums (as defined in the Note) in respect of any prepayment, whether
     voluntary or involuntary, as required by and on the terms and conditions
     set forth in the Note.

7.29 FIRPTA CERTIFICATE.  In the event of any transfer by Mortgagor of its
     ------------------                                                   
     rights hereunder or of any interest in the Property otherwise permitted
     under this Mortgage, such transferee shall, as an additional condition to
     such transfer, under penalty of perjury, execute and deliver to Mortgagee a
     certificate concerning the non-foreign status of such transferee
     substantially in the form of the FIRPTA representation and warranties in
     the Certificate of Representations and Warranties.  Nothing in this
     PARAGRAPH 7.29 shall be deemed a modification or waiver of any other
     ---------------                                                     
     provision of any of the Loan Documents limiting, prohibiting or otherwise
     relating to any Transfer.

7.30 LIMITATION ON PERSONAL LIABILITY.  Neither Mortgagor nor Guarantor
     --------------------------------                                  
     (singularly or collectively, the "Exculpated Parties") shall have any
     personal liability for the Loan or any obligations set forth in the Loan
     Documents.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Mortgagee may bring a
     foreclosure action or other appropriate action to enforce the Loan
     Documents or realize upon and protect the Property (including, without
     limitation, naming the Exculpated Parties in the actions, prior to
     exhausting all other rights and remedies, either at law or in equity) and
     in addition THE EXCULPATED PARTIES SHALL HAVE PERSONAL LIABILITY FOR any
     actual losses or damages incurred by Mortgagee on account of:

     Hazardous Substances Remediation and Indemnification Agreement; and the
     ERISA Certificate and Indemnification Agreement);

     required under the Loan Documents), in which event the Exculpated Parties
     shall have personal liability for the greater of:

         (a) the Present Value (calculated at the Discount Rate) of the
         aggregate total dollar amount (if any) by which (1) rental income

         (c) if the amendment or termination involves a Lease with a Major

         regardless of whether the actual losses or damages incurred by

     HOWEVER, THAT THE EXCULPATED PARTIES SHALL HAVE PERSONAL LIABILITY for

     Mortgagee's enforcement actions unless (except with respect to bankruptcy)
     the final decision rendered is in favor of Mortgagor; or

LIABILITY for all indebtedness evidenced by the Note and all obligations set

     (i)    there shall be any breach or violation of the Due on Sale or
     Encumbrance section of this Mortgage; or

                                      -47-

     voluntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or (ii) an involuntary
     bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding which is not dismissed within ninety
     (90) days of filing; provided, however, that this subsection d(iii) shall
     not apply if an involuntary bankruptcy is filed by Mortgagee.  If the
     involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding is not dismissed within
     ninety (90) days and the Mortgagor and Guarantor: (a) promptly and
     diligently pursued the dismissal of such proceeding; (b) have not
     orchestrated nor acquiesced in the filing of such proceeding; and (c) did
     not contest Mortgagee's efforts to obtain control of the cash collateral,
     then the Exculpated Parties shall not have personal liability because of
     the failure to dismiss such proceeding within ninety (90) days.

                                PROMISSORY NOTE
                                ---------------

                                        

$65,000,000.00                                     August 28, 1997


     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, THE UNDERSIGNED, OVERSEAS PARTNERS (333), INC., an
Illinois corporation ("Maker") hereby promise(s) to pay to the order of THE
PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA, a New Jersey corporation, its successor
or assigns ("Noteholder") the principal sum of Sixty-Five Million and no/ 100
Dollars ($65,000,000.00), with interest on the unpaid principal balance thereof
from the date hereof until maturity at the rate of Seven and 57/100 percent
(7.57%) per annum ("Interest Rate"), both principal and interest being payable
as hereinafter provided in lawful money of the United States of America at 751
Broad Street, Newark, New Jersey 07102-3777, or at such other place as from time
to time may be designated by Noteholder.  Interest shall be calculated and paid
on the basis of a 30-day month and 360-day year, other than interest due on the
first Monthly Due Date (as such term is defined below) and the Maturity Date (as
such term is defined below), which shall be calculated based on the actual
number of days in the month and year in which such payments are made.

     1.   PAYMENTS.  Maker agrees to pay Noteholder as follows:
          --------                                             

     (a)  interest only from the date of this Note through October 15, 1997, and
          principal in the amount of Seventy-Three Thousand Two Hundred Sixty-
          Six and 09/100 Dollars ($73,266.09) shall be due and payable on
          October 15, 1997. The first month's payment is an adjusted payment;
          and

     (b)  monthly installment payments of Four Hundred Eighty-Three Thousand
          Three Hundred Seven and 76/100 Dollars ($483,307.76) of principal and
          interest on the 15th day of November, 1997 and on the same day of each
          succeeding month (the "Monthly Due Date") through and including the
          15th day of September, 2012 (the "Maturity Date") on which date all
          unpaid principal and interest, together with any other sums due under
          the terms of this Note, shall be due and payable.

     2.   TREATMENT OF PAYMENTS. All payments of principal, interest, late
          ---------------------
charge (as described below), and Prepayment Premium (as described below), if
any, due under this Note, shall be paid to Noteholder by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to such bank or place or by check, and in such other
manner, as Noteholder may from time to time designate. Each installment payment
under this Note shall be applied first to the payment of any unpaid late


                                                        August 27, 1997

charge, then to accrued interest and the remainder to the reduction of unpaid
principal. As to all installment payments, time is of the essence.

          3.  LATE CHARGES. If any monthly installment of principal and/or
              ------------
interest is not in full on or before the Monthly Due Date and remains unpaid for
four (4) days after the Monthly Due Date, then a charge for late payment ("Late
Charge") of $250.00 per day (the "Per Diem Late Charge") shall be assessed by
Noteholder and paid by Maker for each day that such payment is not paid
(commencing four (4) days after the Monthly Due Date, but including the date
upon which such payment is made; provided, however, that if any such monthly
principal and/or interest payment, together with all accrued Per Diem Late
Charges, is not made in full on or before the fourteenth (14th) day immediately
following such Monthly Due Date, a Late Charge equal to four percent (4 %) of
the monthly principal and/or interest payment (the "Monthly Late Charge") shall
be deemed to be immediately assessed and shall be immediately due and payable by
Maker. The Monthly Late Charge shall be payable in lieu of and not in addition
to any Per Diem Late Charges that shall have accrued during the two-week period
immediately preceding the assessment of the Monthly Late Charge. The Per Diem
Late Charge and Monthly Late Charge shall be in addition to all other rights and
remedies available to Noteholder upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
under the Loan Documents.

          4.  DEFAULT INTEREST.  In the event and during the continuance of an
              ----------------                                                
Event of Default under this Note, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents, or
after the maturity of this Note, interest shall accrue hereunder at an annual
rate of the lesser of (i) the maximum rate allowable by law or (ii) the greater
of (A) Prime Rate plus five percent (5 %) per annum or (B) the Interest Rate
plus five percent (5 %) per annum ("Default Rate").  "Prime Rate" shall mean the
prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal on the date the default occurs.

          5.  SECURITY. This Note is secured by a Mortgage and Security
              --------                                                
Agreement (hereinafter called the "Mortgage") of even date herewith evidencing a
lien on certain real property in Cook County, Illinois, described therein, and
evidencing a security interest in certain personal property, fixtures and
equipment described therein and by other documents to which reference is hereby
made for a description of the property covered thereby, the nature and extent of
the security and the rights and powers of Noteholder in respect to such
security, and for certain terms used in this Note.  Capitalized terms not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the
Mortgage.

     6.   EVENT OF DEFAULT. (i) Upon the failure to pay any installment of
          ----------------                                                
principal and/or interest due on this Note as above promised within four (4)
days after notice by Noteholder (the "Monthly Payment Grace Period"), (ii) upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in any of the Loan Documents, or
(iii) upon the failure to pay any sums due Noteholder other than monthly
installments of principal and interest within ten (10) days after notice by
Noteholder, Noteholder shall have the option of declaring the Indebtedness to be
immediately due and payable (the "Loan Acceleration").  Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, in the event that Maker shall fail to pay any
installment of principal and/or interest due on this Note on the Monthly Due
Date more than (i) two (2) times in any twelve month period, or

                                      -2-
                                                         August 26, 1997
<PAGE>
 
(ii) four (4) times in the aggregate during the term hereof, the Monthly Payment
Grace Period shall terminate. Thereafter, upon the failure to pay any
installment of principal and/or interest on the Monthly Due Date, Noteholder
shall have the option of Loan Acceleration. After Loan Acceleration, Noteholder
shall have the option of applying any payments received to principal or interest
or any other costs due pursuant to the terms of this Note or the Loan Documents.

     7.   PREPAYMENT.  Subject to Maker's payment of the premium for early
          ----------                                                      
repayment referred to below and all accrued interest and other sums due under
this Note, the Mortgage and any other Loan Documents, if any, Maker shall have
the right to prepay all or part of the outstanding principal balance of this
Note on any date upon giving not less than ten (10) days prior written notice to
Noteholder of Maker's intention to prepay.  If the principal of this Note is
prepaid for any reason, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, or after Loan
Acceleration, exclusive, however, of prepayment from casualty or condemnation
proceeds pursuant to the Loan Documents, Maker shall pay a premium for
prepayment equal to the greater of (a) or (b) (hereinafter called the
"Prepayment Premium") where:

     (a)  is $0; and

     (b)  is an amount equal to the Present Value of this Note (as hereinafter
defined) less the amount of principal being prepaid, including accrued interest,
if any, calculated as of the date on which prepayment will be made (hereinafter
called the "Prepayment Date"); provided, however, that in the event the
Prepayment Premium is construed to be interest under applicable law in any
circumstances, in whole or in part, the Prepayment Premium shall not be required
to the extent that the amount thereof, together with other interest payable
hereunder, exceeds the maximum interest that may be lawfully charged under
applicable law.

     Noteholder shall notify Maker of the amount (to be determined as of the
Prepayment Date) and basis of determination of the Prepayment Premium.  On or
before the Prepayment Date, Maker shall pay to Noteholder the Prepayment Premium
together with the amount of the principal being prepaid and all accrued interest
and other sums due under this Note and the Loan Documents.  Noteholder shall not
be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note
unless such prepayment is accompanied by the Prepayment Premium and all accrued
interest and other sums due under this Note and the Loan Documents.

     For purposes of determining the Prepayment Premium, the following terms
shall have the following meanings:

     (i)  the "Treasury Rate" is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant
          Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average
          life of the payments due on this Note, for the week prior to the
          Prepayment Date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.
          15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Noteholder on
          the Prepayment Date.  The rate will be determined by linear
          interpolation between the yields reported in Release

                                      -3-
                                                        August 26, 1997
<PAGE>
 
          H. 15, if necessary. In the event Release H. 15 is no longer published
          Noteholder shall select a comparable publication to determine the
          Treasury Rate.

          (ii)  The "Discount Rate" is the rate which, when compounded monthly,
          is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually.
 
          (iii) The "Present Value" shall be determined by discounting all
          scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of
          this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount
          Rate.  If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Monthly Due Date,
          the actual number of days remaining from the Prepayment Date to the
          next Monthly Due Date will be used to discount within this period.

Maker agrees that Noteholder shall not be obligated to actually reinvest the
amount prepaid in any Treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving
the Prepayment Premium.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Prepayment Premium will be due if this Note is
prepaid in full or in part within ninety (90) days prior to the Maturity Date.

     8.   LIMITATION ON PERSONAL LIABILITY.  Neither Maker nor Guarantor
          --------------------------------                              
(singularly or collectively, the "Exculpated Parties") shall have any personal
liability for the Loan or any obligations set forth in the Loan Documents.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Noteholder may bring a foreclosure
action or other appropriate action to enforce the Loan Documents or realize upon
and protect the Property (including, without limitation, naming the Exculpated
Parties in the actions, prior to exhausting all other rights and remedies,
either at law or in equity) and in addition THE EXCULPATED PARTIES SHALL HAVE
PERSONAL LIABILITY FOR any actual losses or damages incurred by Noteholder on
account of-.

          (i)   any environmental indemnity or ERISA indemnity furnished by
      Maker or Guarantor in connection with the Loan (including, without
      limitation, the hazardous substances and ERISA provisions of the Loan
      Documents; the Hazardous Substances Remediation and Indemnification
      Agreement; and the ERISA Certificate and Indemnification Agreement);

          (ii)  real estate taxes and assessments relating to the property, if
      and to the extent the Exculpated Parties have assumed personal liability
      therefor pursuant to Section 2.10 of the Mortgage;
                           ------------                 

          (iii) any security deposits of tenants (A) not turned over to
      Noteholder upon foreclosure, sale (pursuant to power of sale), or
      conveyance in lieu thereof, or (B) not turned over to a receiver or
      trustee for the Property after his/her appointment;

                                      -4-
                                                        August 26, 1997
<PAGE>
 
          (iv)  any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards neither turned
      over to Noteholder nor used in compliance with the Loan Documents;

          (v)   the execution by any of the Exculpated Parties of an amendment
      that has a financial impact on the terms of the lease or a termination of
      any Lease without Noteholder's prior written consent (if Noteholder's
      consent was required under the Loan Documents), in which event the
      Exculpated Parties shall have personal liability for the greater of:

                   (A) the Present Value (calculated at the Discount Rate) of
         the aggregate total dollar amount (if any) by which (1) rental income
         and/or other tenant obligations prior to the amendment of such Lease
         exceeds rental income and/or other tenant obligations after the
         amendment of such Lease or under any subsequent lease for such space,
         and (2) landlord obligations after the amendment of such Lease or under
         any subsequent lease for such space exceeds landlord obligations prior
         to the amendment of such Lease; or

                   (B) any termination fee or other consideration paid, less the
         actual, reasonable costs paid to a third party for reletting such space
         and any reasonable amounts applied to pay the pro rata operating costs
         of such space; and

                   (C) if the amendment or termination involves a Lease with a
         Major Tenant, an amount equal to twice the greater of (A) or (B) above
         regardless of whether the actual losses or damages incurred by
         Noteholder on account of such amendment or termination are less than
         such amount.

         (vi)    physical waste of the Property;

         (vii)   any rents or other income from the Property received by any of
the Exculpated Parties during the continuance of an Event of Default under the
Loan Documents and not otherwise applied to the indebtedness under the Note or
to the operating and capital expenses of the Property; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT
THE EXCULPATED PARTIES SHALL HAVE PERSONAL LIABILITY for amounts paid as
expenses to a person or entity related to or affiliated with any of the
Exculpated Parties unless the payments are expressly permitted in the Loan
Documents;

         (viii)  Maker's failure to maintain any letter of credit required under
the Loan Documents or otherwise in connection with the Loan;

         (ix)    all reasonable legal fees, including allocated costs of
Noteholder's staff attorneys, and other expenses incurred by Noteholder in
enforcing the Loan Documents if Maker contests, delays, or otherwise hinders or
opposes (including, without limitation, the filing of a bankruptcy) any of
Noteholder's enforcement actions unless (except with respect to bankruptcy) the
final decision rendered is in favor of Maker; or

                                      -5-

                                                        August 26, 1997
<PAGE>
 
         (x)     any material misrepresentation by any of the Exculpated Parties
     in connection with the Property, the Loan Documents, the Loan Application
     or any other aspect of the Loan.

               (a)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the EXCULPATED PARTEES
          SHALL HAVE PERSONAL LIABILITY for all indebtedness evidenced by the
          Note and all obligations set forth in the Loan Documents not to exceed
          $10,000,000, if:

                 (i)  there shall be any breach or violation of the Due
            on Sale or Encumbrance section of the Mortgage; or

                (ii)  there shall be any fraud by any of the Exculpated
            Parties in connection  with the Property, the Loan Documents, the
            Loan Application, or any other aspect of the Loan; or

               (iii)  the Property or any part thereof shall become an asset in
            (i) a voluntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or (ii) an
            involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding which is not
            dismissed within ninety (90) days of filing; provided, however, that
            this subsection d(iii) shall not apply if an involuntary bankruptcy
            is filed by Noteholder.  If the involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency
            proceeding is not dismissed within ninety (90) days and the Maker
            and Guarantor: (a) promptly and diligently pursued the dismissal of
            such proceeding; (b) have not orchestrated nor acquiesced in the
            filing of such proceeding; and (c) did not contest Noteholder's
            efforts to obtain control of the cash collateral, then the
            Exculpated Parties shall not have personal liability because of the
            failure to dismiss such proceeding within ninety (90) days.

            9.  NON-USURIOUS LOAN.  It is the intent of Noteholder and Maker in
                -----------------                                              
this Note and all other Loan Documents now or hereafter securing this Note to
contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law.  In furtherance
thereof, Noteholder and Maker stipulate and agree that none of the terms and
provisions contained in this Note, or in any other instrument executed in
connection herewith including but not limited to the Loan Documents, shall ever
be construed to create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance or detention
of money, interest at a rate in excess of the applicable law.  Neither Maker nor
any guarantors, endorsers or other parties now or hereafter becoming liable for
payment of this Note shall ever be required to pay interest on this Note at a
rate in excess of the maximum interest that may be lawfully charged under
applicable law, and the provisions of this paragraph shall control over all
other provisions of this Note, the Loan Documents and any other instruments now
or hereafter executed in connection herewith which may be in apparent conflict
herewith.  Noteholder expressly disavows any intention to charge or collect
excessive unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of this
Note is accelerated.  If the maturity of this Note is accelerated for any reason
or if the principal of this Note is paid prior to the end of the term of this
Note, and as a result thereof the interest received for the actual period of
existence of this Note exceeds the applicable maximum lawful rate, Noteholder
shall, at its option, either refund the amount of such excess or credit the
amount of such excess against the principal balance of this Note then
outstanding
                                      -6-
                                                        August 26, 1997
<PAGE>
 
and thereby shall render inapplicable any and all penalties of any kind provided
by applicable law as a result of such excess interest.  In the event that
Noteholder collects monies which are deemed to constitute interest which would
increase the effective interest on this Note to a rate in excess of that
permitted to be charged by applicable law, all such sums deemed to constitute
interest in excess of the lawful rate shall, upon such determination, at the
option of Noteholder, be either immediately returned or credited against the
principal balance of this Note then outstanding, in which event any and all
penalties of any kind under applicable law as a result of such excess interest
shall be inapplicable.  By execution of this Note, Maker acknowledges that it
believes this Note and all interest and fees paid pursuant to the Loan
represented by this Note, to be non-usurious.  Maker agrees that if, at any
time, Maker should believe that this Note or the Loan is in fact usurious, Maker
will give Noteholder notice of such condition and Maker agrees that Noteholder
shall have ninety (90) days in which to make appropriate refund or other
adjustment in order to correct such condition if in fact such condition exists.
The term "applicable law" as used in this Note shall mean the laws of the State
of Illinois or the laws of the United States, whichever allows the greater rate
of interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into
effect in the future.

          10.  NOTEHOLDER'S ATTORNEYS' FEES.  Should the Indebtedness
               ----------------------------                          
represented by this Note or any part thereof be collected at law or in equity or
through any bankruptcy, receivership, probate or other court proceedings or if
this Note is placed in the hands of attorneys for collection after default, or
if the lien or priority of the lien represented by the Mortgage is the subject
of any Court proceeding, Maker and all endorsers, guarantors and sureties of
this Note jointly and severally agree to pay to Noteholder in addition to the
principal and interest due and payable hereon reasonable attorneys' and
collection fees including those incurred by Noteholder for any appeal.

          11.  MAKER'S WAIVERS.  Maker and all endorsers, guarantors and
               ---------------                                         
sureties of this Note and all other persons liable or to become liable on this
Note severally waive presentment for payment, demand, notice of demand and of
dishonor and nonpayment of this Note, notice of intention to accelerate the
maturity of this Note, notice of acceleration, protest and notice of protest,
diligence in collecting, and the bringing of suit against any other party, and
agree to all renewals, extensions modifications, partial payments, releases or
substitutions of security, in whole or in part, with or without notice, before
or after maturity.

          12.  PAYMENT OF TAXES AND FEES. Maker agrees to pay the cost of any
               -------------------------                                   
revenue, tax or other documentary fee or stamps now or hereafter required by law
to be affixed to this Note or the Mortgage.

          13.  GOVERNING LAW. This Note and the rights, duties and liabilities
               -------------                                                
of the parties hereunder and/or arising from or relating in any way to the
indebtedness evidenced by this Note or the transaction of which such
indebtedness is a part shall be governed and construed for all purposes by the
law of the State of Illinois.

                            ASSIGNMENT OF AGREEMENTS
                            ------------------------
                                        
     THIS ASSIGNMENT OF AGREEMENTS (this "Assignment") is made as of August 28,
1997 by OVERSEAS PARTNERS (333), INC., an Illinois corporation ("Borrower") to
THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA, a New Jersey corporation
("Lender").

                                    RECITALS
                                        
A.  Borrower has executed a promissory note of even date herewith in favor of
    Lender in the principal sum of SIXTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLARS ($65,000,000.00)
    (such note, together with any modifications, renewals, substitutions or
    extensions thereof, is referred to hereinafter as the "Note") to evidence a
    loan (the "Loan") from Lender to Borrower in like amount, which Loan is
    secured by, among other things, a Mortgage, Security Agreement and Fixture
    Filing of even date herewith (the "Mortgage") on the Property and by other
    Loan Documents.

B.  Borrower has entered into certain agreements pertaining to the operation of
    the Property.

C.  As a condition to the making of the Loan, Lender has required that Borrower
    enter into this Assignment.

D.  All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
    ascribed to such terms in the Mortgage.

                                   AGREEMENT

    NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration for the loan and other good and valuable
consideration, Borrower agrees as follows:

1.  Assignment.  Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally sells, assigns,
    ----------                                                                 
    transfers, sets over, grants a security interest in and delivers to Lender
    all of Borrower's right, title and interest in and to all of those
    contracts, agreements, commitments, licenses, equipment leases, permits,
    warranties, guaranties, plans and specifications, architectural drawings,
    approvals and reports relating to the construction, ownership, operation or
    use of the Property (each such document is sometimes referred to hereinafter
    as an "Agreement" and all such documents are sometimes collectively referred
    to hereinafter
<PAGE>
 
     as the "Agreements"), including, without limitation, the agreements, if
     any, listed in Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein.  Except
                    -------                                                   
     as set forth below, this Assignment includes the immediate and continuing
     right to collect and receive all sums which may become due to Borrower or
     to which Borrower is now or shall hereafter become entitled or may demand
     or claim arising or issuing from or out of the Agreements, the right of
     Borrower to cure (and to seek reimbursement for the cost of such cure) any
     default under the Agreements, the right of Borrower to provide consent or
     approval under such Agreements, and the right of Borrower to enforce any
     rights and receive any benefits under the Agreements; provided, however, so
     long as no Event of Default shall have occurred under any of the Loan
     Documents, Borrower shall have a license, revocable upon the occurrence of
     an Event of Default, to collect and retain all sums which may become
     payable to Borrower under the Agreements, and otherwise exercise all rights
     of Borrower with respect thereto, subject to the limitations hereof and of
     the Loan Documents.

2.   Further Assurances.  Borrower agrees to execute and deliver, at its cost,
     ------------------                                                       
     upon Lender's request, any documents necessary to cause the specific
     assignment of any particular agreement or document whatsoever, the
     assignment of which is necessary, proper or desirable in Lender's judgment
     to carry out the purposes of this Assignment.

3.   Representations, Warranties and Covenants.  Borrower hereby represents,
     -----------------------------------------                              
     warrants and covenants to Lender that (a) true, correct and complete copies
     of the Agreements have been delivered to Lender, including all amendments,
     exhibits or addenda thereto;  (b)  to the best of Borrower's knowledge the
     Agreements were duly executed and delivered by the parties thereto and are
     enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent
     limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, conservatorship,
     receivership or other debtor relief laws affecting the enforcement of
     creditor rights generally; (c) to the best of its knowledge no default
     exists under any of the Agreements and no fact or circumstance exists under
     any of the Agreements which, with the lapse of time or giving of notice or
     both, would constitute a default by any party under such Agreements; (d)
     Borrower has not previously assigned or otherwise transferred its interests
     under any of the Agreements, and will not consent to suffer or permit any
     such assignment or transfer without the prior written consent of Lender;
     (e) Borrower has performed no act or executed any other instrument which
     might prevent Lender from enjoying and exercising any of its rights and
     privileges evidenced hereby; and (f) Borrower shall observe, perform, and
     discharge duly and punctually all the obligations, terms, covenants,
     conditions and warranties to be performed by it pursuant to the Agreements
     the failure of which will have a material adverse effect on the Property.

4.   Event of Default.  The occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan
     -----------------                                                      
     Documents shall also constitute a default under this Assignment.  Lender,
     upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, at its option, upon written
     notice to Borrower, shall have the right to terminate and revoke the
     license hereinabove granted to Borrower and shall have the complete right
     and authority then or thereafter to exercise and enforce any and all of its

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
 
     rights and remedies provided herein or by law.  Borrower hereby authorizes
     and directs the parties named in the Agreements, or the occupants of the
     Property, upon receipt from the Lender of written notice to the effect that
     an Event of Default exists under the Loan Documents, to cooperate fully
     with Lender and to attribute to Lender all of Borrower's rights, powers and
     privileges under the Agreements.

5.   Nonresponsibility.  The acceptance by Lender of this Assignment with all
     -----------------                                                       
     the rights, powers, privileges and authority so granted shall not obligate
     Lender to assume any obligations under the Agreements or to take any action
     thereunder or to expend any money or incur any expense or perform or
     discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Agreements or to
     assume any obligation or responsibility for the nonperformance of the
     provisions thereof by Borrower, unless and until Lender becomes the owner
     of the Property and elects to continue said Agreements in full force and
     effect.

6.   Termination of Agreements.  Provided either (a) Borrower has the right
     -------------------------                                             
     pursuant to the subject Agreement to take the following action or (b) the
     party to such Agreement other than Borrower consents to such action, upon
     the occurrence of an Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents and
     acceleration of the indebtedness thereunder, Lender shall have the right to
     terminate without payment of any fee or penalty by Lender any Agreement
     upon thirty (30) days' advance written notice to the parties to such
     Agreement.

7.   Power of Attorney.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and Lender's
     ------------------                                                         
     acceleration of the indebtedness, Borrower does hereby constitute and
     appoint Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, which appointment is
     coupled with an interest, to (a) exercise any and all rights under the
     Agreements, and (b) demand, sue for, collect, attach, levy, recover and
     receive any and all sums which may become due to Borrower or to which
     Borrower is now or shall hereafter become entitled or may demand or claim,
     arising or issuing from or out of the Agreements and to give proper
     notices, receipts, releases and acquittances therefor and after deducting
     expenses of collection, to apply the net proceeds as a credit upon any
     portion, as selected by Lender of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note,
     notwithstanding the fact that the amount owing thereunder may not then be
     due and payable or that the Note is adequately secured, and Borrower does
     hereby authorize and direct the delivery and payment of such sums to Lender
     and authorizes Lender to sign and deliver written instructions to this
     effect in Borrower's name and stead, and does hereby ratify and confirm all
     whatsoever that its said attorney shall do or cause to be done by virtue of
     the powers granted hereby.  The within appointment shall be irrevocable and
     continuing and such rights, powers and privileges shall be exclusive to
     Lender, its successors and assigns, so long as any part of the Note shall
     remain unpaid; provided, however, Lender shall not exercise any of its
     rights or authority as attorney-in-fact prior to the occurrence of an Event
     of Default.

8.   Exercise of Remedies.  Nothing contained herein and no act done or omitted
     ---------------------                                                     
     by Lender pursuant to the powers and rights granted it hereunder shall be
     deemed to be a waiver by Lender of its rights and remedies under the Note,
     the Mortgage or any other Loan

                                     -3-
<PAGE>
 
     Document or a waiver or curing of any default hereunder or under the Note,
     the Mortgage or any other Loan Document, and this Assignment is made and
     accepted without prejudice to any of the rights and remedies possessed by
     Lender under the terms of the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan
     Documents.  The right of Lender to collect principal, interest and other
     indebtedness secured hereby and by the Mortgage and to enforce any other
     security therefor held by it may be exercised by Lender either prior to,
     simultaneously with, or subsequent to any action taken by it hereunder.

9.   Notices. All notices required to be delivered under this Assignment shall
     -------                                                                  
     be made in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Mortgage.

10.  Indemnity.  Lender shall not be liable for any loss sustained by Borrower
     ---------                                                                
     resulting from Lender's exercise of its rights under any of the Agreements,
     or from any other act or omission of Lender under this Assignment unless
     such loss is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
     Lender.  Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender from
     and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses
     arising out of or resulting from this Assignment, including, without
     limitation, the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Lender
     hereunder; and Borrower shall reimburse Lender on demand for any and all
     sums, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
     expenses, incurred by Lender in connection therewith.

11.  Termination. This Assignment shall terminate upon payment in full of the
     -------------                                                           
     Indebtedness evidenced by the Note.

12.  Successors and Assigns.  The covenants and agreements herein contained
     ----------------------                                                
     shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their 
     successors and assigns.

13.  Governing Law.  This Assignment shall be governed by and construed in
     -------------                                                        
     accordance with the laws of the State in which the Property is located.

14.  Limitation on Personal Liability. Reference is hereby made to the portion
     ---------------------------------                                        
     of the Note entitled "Limitation on Personal Liability" which provision is
     hereby incorporated herein by reference to the same extent as if it were

Caryn L. Chalmers, Esq.
Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal
8000 Sears Tower
Chicago, Illinois 60606

                                         Prudential Loan No. 6-101-882

                 ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
                 ------------------------------

          THIS ASSIGNMENT is made as of this 27th day of August, 1997, by and
                                                  ---                        
     from OVERSEAS PARTNERS (333), INC., an Illinois corporation's("Assignor"),
     to and for the benefit of THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA, a
     New Jersey corporation ("Assignee").

                                   RECITALS:
                                   ---------

     A.     Assignor is the owner of certain real property located in Cook
County, State of Illinois more particularly described in Exhibit A attached
hereto ("Property").

     B.     Assignor has executed and delivered to Assignee a promissory note
("Note") of even date herewith in the original principal amount of SIXTY-FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS ($65,000,000.00) and Assignor has executed and delivered to
Assignee a Mortgage, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing ("Mortgage") of even
date herewith and recorded contemporaneously herewith, securing, among other
things, the obligations of Assignor under the Note and the Mortgage
("Obligations").

     C.     Assignor desires to transfer and assign to Assignee, absolutely and
unconditionally, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the
leases described in Exhibit B attached hereto and by this reference incorporated
                    ------- -                                                   
herein, and any and all other leases, subleases, lettings and licenses of or
affecting the Property that may hereafter be entered into and all amendments,
extensions, modifications, replacements or renewals thereof (collectively,
"Leases"), and (a) the rents, income and profits due, or to become due '
thereunder, and (b) the right to enforce, whether at law or in equity or by any
other means, all provisions thereof, and all claims of any kind that Assignor
may have against lessees under the Leases or any subtenants or occupants of the
Property (collectively, "Lessees") including, without limitation, any guarantees
of the obligations owed Assignor thereunder (the items described in clauses (a)
and (b) being hereinafter collectively called "Rents").  Capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms
in the Mortgage.
<PAGE>
 
                                  AGREEMENT:
                                  ----------

   NOW, THEREFORE, as an inducement for the making of the loan evidenced by the
    Note and secured by the Mortgage, Assignor hereby represents, covenants and
    agrees follows:

     1.  Assignment.   Assignor hereby absolutely and unconditionally transfers,
         -----------                                                            
sets over and assigns to Assignee all right, title and interest of Assignor in,
to and under (a) the Leases and (b) the Rents.  This Assignment is intended to
be and is an absolute present assignment from Assignor to Assignee and not the
mere passage of a security interest or a provision of additional security;
provided, however, that Assignor shall have a license to collect, except as
hereinafter provided, the Rents accruing by virtue of the Leases as they
respectively become due ("License"), but not in advance, and to enforce the
agreements of the Leases.  Such License may be revoked, at Assignee's option, in
the event there occurs an Event of Default or breach by Assignor under any of
the terms, covenants or provisions of the Obligations, the Note, the Mortgage,
this Assignment or any other Loan Documents (as defined in the Mortgage).
Assignor covenants and agrees, however, that in exercising its License it shall
hold any and all such Rents in trust for the benefit of Assignee and shall apply
the same in payment of its Obligations, and in accordance with the Loan
Documents.

     2.  Assignee as Creditor of Lessee.   Assignee, and not Assignor, shall be
         -------------------------------                                       
the creditor of the Lessees in respect of assignments for the benefit of
creditors and bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, dissolution or
receivership proceedings affecting any such Lessee.  Assignee, however, shall
not be the party obligated to make timely filings of claims in such proceedings
or to otherwise pursue creditor's rights therein.  Assignee shall have the
option to apply any monies received by it as such creditor to the reduction of
the principal of or the premium, if any, or interest on the Obligations.

     3.  Default Remedies of Assignee.  Upon an Event of Default and until such
         ----------------------------                                          
Event of Default shall have been fully cured, Assignor's License to collect
Rents shall immediately cease and terminate.  Assignee shall thereupon be
authorized at its option to enter and take possession of all or part of the
leased premises, and to perform all acts necessary for the operation and
maintenance of such premises in the same manner and to the same extent that
Assignor might reasonably so act.  In furtherance thereof, Assignee shall be
authorized, but under no obligation, to collect the Rents arising from the
Leases, and to enforce performance of any other terms of the Leases including,
but not limited to, Assignor's rights to fix or modify rents, sue for possession
of the leased premises, relet all or part of the leased premises, and collect
all Rents under such new Leases.  Assignor shall also pay to Assignee, promptly
upon any such default: (a) to the extent permitted by law, all rent prepayments
and security or other deposits paid to Assignor pursuant to any Lease assigned
hereunder; and (b) all charges for services or facilities or for escalation
which have theretofore been paid pursuant to any such Lease to the extent
allocable to any period from and after such default.  Assignee will, after
payment of all proper costs, charges and any damages including, without
limitation, those payable pursuant to Paragraph 7 hereof, apply the net amount
                                      -----------                             
of such Rents to the sums then due to Assignee under the Obligations to the
extent permitted by law.  Assignee shall have sole

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
discretion as to the manner in which such Rents are to be applied, the
reasonableness of the costs to which they are applied, and the items that will
be credited thereby.

     4.  Termination of Assignment.   When Assignor pays Assignee for the full
         --------------------------                                           
amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage and this Assignment, and such
payment is evidenced by a recorded satisfaction or release of the Mortgage, this
Assignment shall terminate and become void.

     5.  Notice to Lessee of Assignor's Default.   Assignor hereby irrevocably
         ---------------------------------------                  
authorizes each Lessee, upon demand and notice from Assignee of Assignor's Event
of Default under the Obligations, the Mortgage, this Assignment or other Loan
Documents, to pay all Rents under the Leases to Assignee. Assignor agrees that
each Lessee shall have the right to rely upon any such notices of Assignee that
Lessee shall pay all Rents to Assignee, without any obligation to inquire as to
the actual existence of the default, notwithstanding any notice from or claim of
Assignor to the contrary. Assignor shall have no claim against any Lessee for
any Rents paid by Lessee to Assignee. Upon Assignor's cure of all Events of
Default, the Mortgage, this Assignment or other Loan Documents, Assignee may
give each Lessee written notice of such cure and, thereafter, until further
notice from Assignee, the Lessee shall pay the Rents to Assignor.

     6.  Assignment of Defaulting Assignor's Interest in Lease.    If Assignor
         ------------------------------------------------------               
has defaulted under the Obligations, the Mortgage, this Assignment or other Loan
Documents, Assignee shall then have the right to assign Assignor's right, title
and interest in and to the Leases to any person acquiring title to the Property
through foreclosure or otherwise. Such assignee shall not be liable to account
to Assignor for the Rents thereafter accruing.

     7.  Indemnification of Assignee.  Assignor hereby agrees to indemnify,
         ----------------------------                                      
defend, protect and hold Assignee harmless from and against any and all
liability, loss, cost, expense or damage (including reasonable attorneys' fees)
that Assignee may or might incur under the Leases or by reason of this
Assignment other than liability, loss, cost, expense, or damage incurred as a
result of Assignee's gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Such
indemnification shall also cover any and all claims and demands that may be
asserted against Assignee under the Leases or this Assignment.  Nothing in this
paragraph shall be construed to bind Assignee to the performance of any Lease
provisions, or to otherwise impose any liability upon Assignee, including,
without limitation, any liability under covenants of quiet enjoyment in the
Leases in the event that any Lessee shall have been joined as party defendant in
any action to foreclose the Mortgage and shall have been barred thereby of all
right, title, interest, and equity of redemption in the Property.  This
Assignment imposes no liability upon Assignee for the operation and maintenance
of the Property or for carrying out the terms of any Lease before Assignee has
entered and taken possession of the Property.  Any loss or liability incurred by
Assignee, by reason of actual entry and taking possession under any Lease or
this Assignment or in the defense of any claims shall, at Assignee's request, be
reimbursed by Assignor.  Such reimbursement shall include interest at the
Default Rate provided in the Note, costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys'
fees.  Assignee may, upon entry and taking of possession, collect the Rents and
apply them to reimbursement for any such loss or liability.  The provisions of
this

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
Paragraph 7 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and any termination,
- -----------                                                                
satisfaction or foreclosure of this Assignment.

          8.   Assignor's Possession After Default.   If Assignor is in
               ------------------------------------                    
possession of any portion of the Property not leased to third party Tenants and
is not required to surrender such possession hereunder upon an Event of Default,
Assignor shall pay monthly in advance to Assignee, on Assignee's entry into
possession pursuant to paragraph 3 hereof, or to any receiver appointed to
                       -----------                                        
collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable value for the use and occupancy of
the Property or such part thereof as may be in the possession of Assignor.  Upon
default in any such payment, Assignor shall forthwith vacate and surrender such
possession to Assignee or such receiver and, in default thereof, Assignor may be
evicted by summary or any other available proceedings or actions.

     9.   Representations and Warranties.    Assignor hereby represents and
          -------------------------------                                  
warrants to Assignee that: (a) Assignor is the absolute owner of the Leases,
with absolute right and title to assign the Leases and the Rents; and (b) the
Leases are valid and in full force and effect and have not been modified,
amended or terminated, or any of the terms and conditions thereof waived, except
as stated herein.

     10.  Lease Terminations and Modificatons.   Assignor may do the following
          ------------------------------------                                
with respect to Leases (a) Assignor may terminate any Lease (other than the
Lease of a Major Tenant or tenant leasing more than 24,000 square feet) which is
                                                    ------                      
in default; (b) Assignor may amend any Lease (other than the Lease of a Major
Tenant or tenant leasing more than 24,000 square feet) provided the amendment
                                   ------                                    
does not (i) increase the obligations of the landlord, (ii) decrease or
accelerate the rent, or (iii) decrease the term; and (c) Assignor may enter into
new Leases (or renew existing Leases) for premises of 24,000 square feet or less
                                                      ------                    
provided each Lease satisfies the minimum leasing requirements as set forth in
the Mortgage and is on Assignor's standard form lease (approved by Assignee)
with no modifications that increase the obligations of the landlord.  Except as
expressly provided in this Section 10 (or after obtaining Assignee's prior
written consent), Assignor shall not (i) amend or modify any Lease, (ii) extend
or renew (except in accordance with the existing Lease provisions, if any) any
Lease (iii) terminate or accept the surrender of any Lease except in accordance
with the terms of any Lease approved or deemed approved by Lender, (iv) enter
into any new Lease of the Property, or (v) accept any prepayment of rent,
termination fee, or any similar payment. Any attempt at cancellation, surrender,
termination, change, alteration, modification, assignment, pledge or
subordination of any Lease, other than as set forth herein, without the prior
written consent of Assignee, shall be null and void.

     11.  Further Assurances.   Assignor shall execute and deliver to Assignee,
          -------------------                                                  
and hereby irrevocably appoints Assignee, its successors and assigns as its
attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver during the term of this Assignment, all
further instruments as Assignee may deem necessary to make this Assignment and
any further assignment effective.  Assignor shall, upon demand, pay to Assignee,
or reimburse Assignee for the payment of, any and all costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with the
preparation and recording of such instruments.

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
     12.  Transfer of Title to Lessee; Cancellation of Lease.  Each Lease shall
          ---------------------------- ----------------------                  
remain in full force and effect, notwithstanding any merger of Assignor's and
Lessee's interest thereunder.  Without Assignee's prior written consent,
Assignor shall not convey title to all or any part of the Property to any
Lessee.  If Assignee's consent to any such conveyance is obtained, Assignor
shall not make any such conveyance without first requiring the Lessee, in
writing, to assume and agree to pay and perform the Obligations and the Mortgage
in accordance with the terms, covenants and conditions thereof, and to pay so
much of the purchase price as Assignee deems necessary in reduction of the
outstanding principal of the Obligations, in the inverse order of maturity,
which payment, if made during the period that the Obligations permit prepayment,
will include applicable prepayment premiums as set forth in the Obligations.
Any transfer of title to any Lessee must be performed in compliance with the
provisions of the Mortgage.  In the event that any Lease permits cancellation
thereof on payment of consideration and said privilege of cancellation is
exercised, the payments made or to be made by reason thereof are hereby assigned
to Assignee to be applied, at the election of Assignee, to the Obligations and
interest thereon in whatever order the Lender shall choose in its discretion or
to be held in trust by Assignee as further security, without interest, for the
payment of the principal and interest required to be paid by the Obligations.

     13.  Lease Guaranties; Assignments of Leases; Alterations of Premises.
          ----------------------------------------------------------------- 
Assignor may do the following with respect to lease guaranties, assignments of
leases, and alterations of premises are as follows: (a) Assignor may terminate
any guaranties of any Lease (other than a guaranty of a Lease of a Major Tenant
or tenant leasing more than 24,000 square feet of the Property) which is in
default; (b) consent to any Lease assignment or subletting (other than the Lease
of a Major Tenant or tenant leasing more than 24,000 square feet) provided that
                                              ------                           
any such lease assignment or subletting does not (i) increase the obligations of
the landlord, (ii) decrease or accelerate the rent, or (iii) decrease the term.
Assignor may not, without the written consent of Assignee: (a) execute any other
assignment or pledge of the Leases, of any interest therein, or of any Rents,
or agree to a subordination of any Lease to any mortgage or other encumbrance
now or hereafter affecting the premises; or (b) permit a material alteration of
or addition to the Property by any Lessee, unless the right to alter or enlarge
is expressly reserved by Lessee in the Lease.

     14.  Assignor to Ensure Continued Performance under Leases.   Assignor
          ------------------------------------------------------           
shall perform all of its covenants as Lessor under the Leases, and shall not
permit any release of liability of any Lessee or any withholding of rent
payments by any Lessee.  Assignor shall promptly deliver to Assignee copies of
any and all notices of default Assignor has sent to any Lessee.  Assignor shall
enforce at Assignor's expense any one or more of the Leases and all remedies
available to Assignor thereunder upon any Lessee's default in accordance with
reasonable past business practices.  Assignor shall deliver to Assignee copies
of all papers served in connection with any such enforcement proceedings and
shall consult with Assignee, its agents and attorneys with respect to the
conduct thereof; provided that Assignor shall not enter into any settlement of
any such proceeding without Assignee's prior written consent (except in the case
of a settlement concerning a tenant which is (i) not a Major Tenant, or (ii)
leasing less than 24,000 square feet of the Property).

                                       5

     15.  Changes in Obligation Terms.  Notwithstanding any variation of the
          ---------------------------                                       
terms of the Obligations and/or the Mortgage, including any increase or decrease
in the principal amount thereof or in the rate of interest payable thereunder or
any extension of time for payment thereunder or the release of any part of the
Property subject to the Mortgage, the terms of this Assignment shall remain
unmodified and in full force and effect.

     16.  Additions to and Replacement of Obligations.  Assignee may take
          --------------------------------------------                     
security in addition to the security already given Assignee for the payments of
the principal, premium and interest required to be paid in or by the Obligations
or release such other security, and may release any party primarily or
secondarily liable on the Obligations, may grant or make extensions, renewals,
modifications or indulgences with respect to the Obligations or the Mortgage and
replacements thereof, which replacements of the Obligations or the Mortgage may
be on the same terms as, or on terms different from, the present terms of the
Obligations or the Mortgage, and may apply any other security held by it to the
satisfaction of the Obligations, without prejudice to any of its rights
hereunder.

     17.  Additional Leases.  Except as otherwise set forth in the Mortgage,
          ------------------                                                   
Assignor shall not enter into any additional Leases or renew any existing Leases
without the prior written consent of Assignee.

     18.  Exercise of Assignee's Rights and Remedies.  Assignee's failure to
          -------------------------------------------                         
avail itself of any of its rights under this Assignment for any period of time,
or at any time or times, shall not constitute a waiver thereof. Assignee's
rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative, and not in lieu of, but in
addition to, any other rights and remedies Assignee has under the Obligations,

Event of Default and Assignee's acceleration of the indebtedness and
continuously thereafter, and without the necessity of the execution of any
further documents or instruments, Assignor hereby constitutes and appoints
Assignee as Assignor's true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in

owing thereunder may not then be due and payable or that the Obligation is
adequately secured, and Assignor does hereby authorize and direct such Lessees
to deliver such payment to Assignee in accordance with the foregoing; and

     (b) to subject and subordinate at any time and from time to time, the

Assignee to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Leases
or to the Property; (b) require Assignee to take any action hereunder, or to
expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation,
duty or liability under the Leases; or (c) require Assignee to assume any
obligation or responsibility for any security deposits or other deposits
delivered to Assignor by Lessees and not assigned and delivered to Assignee.
Assignee shall not be liable in any way for any injury or damage to person or
property sustained by any person in or about the Property.

                             that is reasonably acceptable to the Tenant. LL

                             liable to Tenant in the event of tenant holding
                             over or other violation of the lease.

     (T) Option to Expand:   Provided Tenant is occupying 80% of Premises for
                             its own use, Tenant may expand into the additional
                             space as follows:

     (T) Option to Expand:   Tenant had the option to expand into 3,037 sq. ft.
                             on 20th floor effective 1/1/91, and had a second
                             option to expand into the balance of the 20th floor
                             effective 5/l/95. If Tenant elected not to exercise
                             any expansion option, Tenants rights to such option
                             as well as any subsequent expansion options would
                             extinguish. Since Tenant did not exercise expansion
                             option for 3,037 sq. ft., they apparently no longer

                                   RECITALS:
                                   ---------

     A.  Assignor is the owner of certain real property located in Cook County,
State of Illinois more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto
("Property").

     B.  Assignor has executed and delivered to Assignee a promissory note
("Note") of even date herewith in the original principal amount of SIXTY-FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS ($65,000,000.00) and Assignor has executed and delivered to
Assignee a Mortgage, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing ("Mortgage") of even
date herewith and recorded contemporaneously herewith, securing, among other

("Obligations").

     C.  Assignor desires to transfer and assign -to Assignee, absolutely and
unconditionally, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the
leases described in Exhibit B attached hereto and by this reference incorporated
                    -------                                                     
herein, and any and all other leases, subleases, lettings and licenses of or
affecting the Property that may hereafter be entered into and all amendments,
extensions, modifications, replacements or renewals thereof (collectively,
"Leases"), and (a) the rents, income and profits due, or to become due

other means, all provisions thereof, and all claims of any kind that Assignor

Property (collectively, "Lessees") including, without limitation, any guarantees

and (b) being hereinafter collectively called "Rents").  Capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms

<PAGE>
 
                                  AGREEMENT:
                                  ----------
                                        
     NOW, THEREFORE, as an inducement for the making of the loan evidenced by
the Note and secured by the Mortgage, Assignor hereby represents, covenants and
agrees as follows:

     1.   Assignment.  Assignor hereby absolutely and unconditionally transfers,
          ----------                                                            
sets over and assigns to Assignee all right, title and interest of Assignor in,
to and under (a) the Leases and (b) the Rents.  This Assignment is intended to
be and is an absolute present assignment from Assignor to Assignee and not the
mere passage of a security interest or a provision of additional security;
provided, however, that Assignor shall have a license to collect, except as
hereinafter provided, the Rents accruing by virtue of the Leases as they
respectively become due ("License"), but not in advance, and to enforce the
agreements of the Leases.  Such License may be revoked, at Assignee's option, in
the event there occurs an Event of Default or breach by Assignor under any of
the terms, covenants or provisions of the Obligations, the Note, the Mortgage,
this Assignment or any other Loan Documents (as defined in the Mortgage).
Assignor covenants and agrees, however, that in exercising its License it shall
hold any and all such Rents in trust for the benefit of Assignee and shall apply
the same in payment of its Obligations, and in accordance with the Loan
Documents.

     2.   Assignee as Creditor of Lessee.  Assignee, and not Assignor, shall be
          ------------------------------                                       
the creditor of the Lessees in respect of assignments for the benefit of
creditors and bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, dissolution or
receivership proceedings affecting any such Lessee.  Assignee, however, shall
not be the party obligated to make timely filings of claims in such proceedings
or to otherwise pursue creditor's rights therein.  Assignee shall have the
option to apply any monies received by it as such creditor to the reduction of
the principal of or the premium, if any, or interest on the Obligations.

     3.   Default Remedies of Assignee.  Upon an Event of Default and until such
          -----------------------------                                         
Event of Default shall have been fully cured, Assignor's License to collect
Rents shall immediately cease and terminate.  Assignee shall thereupon be
authorized at its option to enter and take possession of all or part of the
leased premises, and to perform all acts necessary for the operation and
maintenance of such premises in the same manner and to the same extent that
Assignor might reasonably so act.  In furtherance thereof, Assignee shall be
authorized, but under no obligation, to collect the Rents arising from the
Leases, and to enforce performance of any other terms of the Leases including,
but not limited to, Assignor's rights to fix or modify rents, sue for possession
of the leased premises, relet all or part of the leased premises, and collect
all Rents under such new Leases.  Assignor shall also pay to Assignee, promptly
upon any such default: (a) to the extent permitted by law, all rent prepayments
and security or other deposits paid to Assignor pursuant to any Lease assigned
hereunder; and (b) all charges for services or facilities or for escalation
which have theretofore been paid pursuant to any such Lease to the extent
allocable to any period from and after such default.  Assignee after payment of
all proper costs, charges and any damages including, without limitation, those
payable pursuant to Paragraph 7 hereof, apply the net amount of such Rents to
                    ---------                                                
the sums then due to Assignee under the Obligations to the extent permitted by
law.  Assignee shall have sole

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
discretion as to the manner in which such Rents are to be applied, the
reasonableness of the costs to which they are applied, and the items that will
be credited thereby.

     4.   Termination of Assignment.  When Assignor pays Assignee for the full
          -------------------------                                           
amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage and this Assignment, and such
payment is evidenced by a recorded satisfaction or release of the Mortgage, this
Assignment shall terminate and become void.

     5.   Notice to Lessee of Assignor's Default.  Assignor hereby irrevocably 
          --------------------------------------                  
authorizes each Lessee, upon demand and notice from Assignee of Assignor's Event
of Default under the Obligations, the Mortgage, this Assignment or other Loan
Documents, to pay all Rents under the Leases to Assignee. Assignor agrees that
each Lessee shall have the right to rely upon any such notices of Assignee that
Lessee shall pay all Rents to Assignee, without any obligation to inquire as to
the actual existence of the default, notwithstanding any notice from or claim of
Assignor to the contrary. Assignor shall have no claim against any Lessee for
any Rents paid by Lessee to Assignee. Upon Assignor's cure of all Events of
Default, the Mortgage, this Assignment or other Loan Documents, Assignee may
give each Lessee written notice of such cure and, thereafter, until further
notice from Assignee, the Lessee shall pay the Rents to Assignor.

     6.   Assignment of Defaulting Assignor's Interest in Lease.  If Assignor
          ------------------------------------------------                   
has defaulted under the Obligations, the Mortgage, this Assignment or other Loan
Documents, Assignee shall then have the right to assign Assignor's right, title
and interest in and to the Leases to any person acquiring title to the Property
through foreclosure or otherwise.  Such assignee shall not be liable to account
to Assignor for the Rents thereafter accruing.

     7.   Indemnification of Assignee.  Assignor hereby agrees to indemnify,
          ---------------------------                                       
defend, protect and hold Assignee harmless from and against any and all
liability, loss, cost, expense or damage (including reasonable attorneys' fees)
that Assignee may or might incur under the Leases or by reason of this
Assignment other than liability, loss, cost, expense, or damage incurred as a
result of Assignee's gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Such
indemnification shall also cover any and all claims and demands that may be
asserted against Assignee under the Leases or this Assignment.  Nothing in this
paragraph shall be construed to bind Assignee to the performance of any Lease
provisions, or to otherwise impose any liability upon Assignee, including,
without limitation, any liability under covenants of quiet enjoyment in the
Leases in the event that any Lessee shall have been joined as party defendant in
any action to foreclose the Mortgage and shall have been barred thereby of all
right, title, interest, and equity of redemption in the Property.  This
Assignment imposes no liability upon Assignee for the operation and maintenance
of the Property or for carrying out the terms of any Lease before Assignee has
entered and taken possession of the Property.  Any loss or liability incurred by
Assignee, by reason of actual entry and taking possession under any Lease or
this Assignment or in the defense of any claims shall, at Assignee's request, be
reimbursed by Assignor.  Such reimbursement shall include interest at the
Default Rate provided in the Note, costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys'
fees.  Assignee may, upon entry and taking of possession, collect the Rents and
apply them to reimbursement for any such loss or liability.  The provisions of
this

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
     Paragraph 7 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and any termination,
     -----------                                                                
satisfaction or foreclosure of this Assignment.

     8.   Assignor's Possession After Default. If Assignor is in possession of 
          ------------------------------------
any portion of the Property not leased to third party Tenants and is not
required to surrender such possession hereunder upon an Event of Default,
Assignor shall pay monthly in advance to Assignee, on Assignee's entry into
possession pursuant to Paragraph 3 hereof, or to any receiver appointed to 
                       ---------
collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable value for the use and occupancy of
the Property or such part thereof as may be in the possession of Assignor. Upon
default in any such payment, Assignor shall forthwith vacate and surrender such
possession to Assignee or such receiver and, in default thereof, Assignor may be
evicted by summary or any other available proceedings or actions.

     9.   Representations and Warranties.  Assignor hereby represents and 
          ------------------------------   
warrants to Assignee that: (a) Assignor is the absolute owner of the Leases,
with absolute right and title to assign the Leases and the Rents; and (b) the
Leases are valid and in full force and effect and have not been modified,
amended or terminated, or any of the terms and conditions thereof waived, except
as stated herein.

     10.  Lease Terminations and Modifications.  Assignor may do the following
          ------------------------------------                                
with respect to Leases (a) Assignor may terminate any Lease (other than the
Lease of a Major Tenant or tenant leasing more than 24,000 square feet) which is
                                                    ------                      
in default; (b) Assignor may amend any Lease (other than the Lease of a Major
Tenant or tenant leasing more than 24,000 square feet) provided the amendment
                                   ------                                    
does not (i) increase the obligations of the landlord, (ii) decrease or
accelerate the rent, or (iii) decrease the term; and (c) Assignor may enter into
new Leases (or renew existing Leases) for premises of 24,000 square feet or less
                                                      ------                    
provided each Lease satisfies the minimum leasing requirements as set forth in
the Mortgage and is on Assignor's standard form lease (approved by Assignee)
with no modifications that increase the obligations of the landlord.  Except as
expressly provided in this Section 10 (or after obtaining Assignee's prior
written consent), Assignor shall not (i) amend or modify any Lease, (ii) extend
or renew (except in accordance with the existing Lease provisions, if any) any
Lease (iii) terminate or accept the surrender of any Lease except in accordance
with the terms of any Lease approved or deemed approved by Lender, (iv) enter
into any new Lease of the Property, or (v) accept any prepayment of rent,
termination fee, or any similar payment.  Any attempt at cancellation,
surrender, termination, change, alteration, modification, assignment, pledge or
subordination of any Lease, other than as set forth herein, without the prior
written consent of Assignee, shall be null and void.

     11.  Further Assurances.  Assignor shall execute and deliver to Assignee,
          ------------------                                                  
and hereby irrevocably appoints Assignee, its successors and assigns as its
attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver during the term of this Assignment, all
further instruments as Assignee may deem necessary to make this Assignment and
any further assignment effective.  Assignor shall, upon demand, pay to Assignee,
or reimburse Assignee for the payment of, any and all costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with the
preparation and recording of such instruments.

     12.  Transfer of Title to Lessee; Cancellation of Lease.  Each Lease shall
          --------------------------------------------------                   
remain in full force and effect, notwithstanding any merger of Assignor's and
Lessee's interest thereunder.  Without Assignee's prior written consent,
Assignor shall not convey title to all or any part of the Property to any
Lessee.  If Assignee's consent to any such conveyance is obtained, Assignor
shall not make any such conveyance without first requiring the Lessee, in
writing, to assume and agree to pay and perform the Obligations and the Mortgage
in accordance with the terms, covenants and conditions thereof, and to pay so
much of the purchase price as Assignee deems necessary in reduction of the
outstanding principal of the Obligations, in the inverse order of maturity,
which payment, if made during the period that the Obligations permit prepayment,
will include applicable prepayment premiums as set forth in the Obligations.
Any transfer of title to any Lessee must be performed in compliance with the
provisions of the Mortgage.  In the event that any Lease permits cancellation
thereof on payment of consideration and said privilege of cancellation is
exercised, the payments made or to be made by reason thereof are hereby assigned
to Assignee to be applied, at the election of Assignee, to the Obligations and
interest thereon in whatever order the Lender shall choose in its discretion or
to be held in trust by Assignee as further security, without interest, for the
payment of the principal and interest required to be paid by the Obligations.

     13.  Lease Guaranties; Assignments of Leases; Alterations of Premises.
          ----------------------------------------------------------------  
Assignor may do the following with respect to lease guaranties, assignments of
leases, and alterations of premises are as follows: (a) Assignor may terminate
any guaranties of any Lease (other than a guaranty of a Lease of a Major Tenant
or tenant leasing more than 24,000 square feet of the Property) which is in
default; (b) consent to any Lease assignment or subletting (other than the Lease
of a Major Tenant or tenant leasing more than 24,000 square feet) provided that
                                              ------                           
any such lease assignment or subletting does not (i) increase the obligations of
the landlord, (ii) decrease or accelerate the rent, or (iii) decrease the term.
Assignor may not, without the written consent of Assignee: (a) execute any other
assignment or pledge of the Leases, of any interest therein, or of any Rents, or
agree to a subordination of any Lease to any mortgage or other encumbrance now
or hereafter affecting the premises; or (b) permit a material alteration of or
addition to the Property by any Lessee, unless the right to alter or enlarge is
expressly reserved by Lessee in the Lease.

     14.  Assignor to Ensure Continued Performance under Leases.  Assignor shall
          -----------------------------------------------------                 
perform all of its covenants as Lessor under the Leases, and shall not permit
any release of liability of any Lessee or any withholding of rent payments by
any Lessee.  Assignor shall promptly deliver to Assignee copies of any and all
notices of default Assignor has sent to any Lessee.  Assignor shall enforce at
Assignor's expense any one or more of the Leases and all remedies available to
Assignor thereunder upon any Lessee's default in accordance with reasonable past
business practices.  Assignor shall deliver to Assignee copies of all papers
served in connection with any such enforcement proceedings and shall consult
with Assignee, its agents and attorneys with respect to the conduct thereof;
provided that Assignor shall not enter into any settlement of any such
proceeding without Assignee's prior written consent (except in the case of a
settlement concerning a tenant which is (i) not a Major Tenant, or (ii) leasing
less than 24,000 square feet of the Property).

                                       5

     15.  Changes in Obligation Terms.  Notwithstanding any variation of the
          ----------------------------                                     
terms of the Obligations and/or the Mortgage, including any increase or decrease
in the principal amount thereof or in the rate of interest payable thereunder or
any extension of time for payment thereunder or the release of any part of the
Property subject to the Mortgage, the terms of this Assignment shall remain
unmodified and in full force and effect.

     16.  Additions to and Replacement of Obligations. Assignee may take
          ---------------------------------------------                 
security in addition to the security already given Assignee for the payments of
the principal, premium and interest required to be paid in or by the Obligations
or release such other security, and may release any party primarily or
secondarily liable on the Obligations, may grant or make extensions, renewals,
modifications or indulgences with respect to the Obligations or the Mortgage and
replacements thereof, which replacements of the Obligations or the Mortgage may
be on the same terms as, or on terms different from, the present terms of the
Obligations or the Mortgage, and may apply any other security held by it to the
satisfaction of the Obligations, without prejudice to any of its rights
hereunder.

     17.  Additional Leases.  Except as otherwise set forth in the Mortgage,
          ------------------                                                
Assignor shall not enter into any additional Leases or renew any existing Leases
without the prior written consent of Assignee.

     18.  Exercise of Assignee's Rights and Remedies.  Assignee's failure to
          -------------------------------------------                       
avail itself of any of its rights under this Assignment for any period of time,
or at any time or times, shall not constitute a waiver thereof.  Assignee's
rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative, and not in lieu of, but in
addition to, any other rights and remedies Assignee has under the Obligations,
the Mortgage and any other Loan Documents.  Assignee's rights and remedies
hereunder may be exercised as often as Assignee deems expedient.

     19.  Severability.  If any term of this Assignment or the application
          -------------                                                   
hereof to any person or set of circumstances, shall to any extent be invalid or
unenforceable, the remainder of this Assignment, or the application of such
provision or part thereof to persons or circumstances other than those as to

term of this Assignment shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent
consistent with applicable law.

         ------------------                                                 
Event of Default and Assignee's acceleration of the indebtedness and
continuously thereafter, and without the necessity of the execution of any
further documents or instruments, Assignor hereby constitutes and appoints
Assignee as Assignor's true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in
the name, place and stead of Assignor:

         (a) to collect, demand, sue for, attach, levy, recover and receive all
     Rents due and payable by Lessees pursuant to the Leases and to give proper
     notices, receipts, releases and acquittances therefor and after deducting
     expenses of collection, to apply the net proceeds as a credit upon any
     portion, as selected by Assignee, of the Obligations, notwithstanding that
     the amount owing thereunder may not then be due and payable or that the
     Obligation is adequately secured, and Assignor does hereby authorize and
     direct such Lessees to deliver such payment to Assignee in accordance with
     the foregoing; and

         (b) to subject and subordinate at any time and from time to time, the
     Leases, to the lien of the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents or any

                             over or other violation of the lease .

     (T) Option to Expand:   Provided Tenant is occupying 80% of Premises for

                             space as follows:

                             than reduction in 1st Option space) in a manner
                             reasonably satisfactory to Tenant upon notice by
                             3/l/03.
                             Rent:  Same rate/sf as for existing Premises

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     (T) Option to Expand:   Tenant had the option to expand into 3,037 sq. fL
                             on 20th floor effective 1/1/91, and had a second
                             option to expand into the balance of the 20th floor
                             effective 5/l/95. If Tenant elected not to exercise
                             any expansion option, Tenants rights to such option
                             as well as any subsequent expansion options would
                             extinguish. Since Tenant did not exercise expansion
                             option for 3,037 sq. ft., they apparently no longer
                             have the option to expand into the balance of the
                             20th floor.

                             day period.

                             second floor as of the date of the Fifth Amendment.
                             Tenant shall give notice to LL by 1/31/96. Rent

                             another tenant and LL shall not be held liable in
                             the event LL does not deliver possession due to a
                             holding over, provided LL uses diligent efforts to
                             obtain possession. If LL is unable to deliver
                             possession of Expansion Space to Tenant on or prior

                             space for occupancy by Tenant until the 120th day
                             following the date on which the Expansion Space is
                             delivered to Tenant. LL shall pay all reasonable

                             Tenant's move to the Temporary space. LL and Tenant
                             shall execute a short term lease to govern Tenant's
                             occupancy of such Temporary Space. No rent shall be
                             paid by Tenant for Temporary Space. However, Tenant
                             shall pay its pro-rata share of taxes and operating
                             expenses on a net basis.

termination of employment with an Employer or Related Company), which amount the
Committee shall determine under rules it adopts based upon:

            (1)  the assumption that the Participant has made or will make
            proper and timely application for such benefit;
<PAGE>
 
     (2) if a Participant documents his Compensation history to the Committee,
         such history, provided, however, that for such history to be used in
         lieu of the estimated amount determined under subparagraphs (3) and (4)
         below, the Participant must supply such history to the Committee no
         later than one year following the later of (i) the Participant's
         separation from service or (ii) the time when the Participant is
         notified of the benefit to which he is entitled;

     (4)  subject to paragraph (2), above, with respect to a Participant whose
          employment terminated for reason of retirement or otherwise prior to
          his Normal Retirement Date, on the assumption that the Participant
          continued in employment with the Employer to his Normal Retirement
          Date at the rate of compensation as in effect on his earlier date or
          retirement or termination of employment.

     In determining a Participant's Social Security Amount based upon such
Participant's Compensation history pursuant to subparagraphs (2), (3) and (4)
above, the value of deferred compensation shall be disregarded, except that
elective contributions (1) under a qualified cash or deferred arrangement
described in Code Section 401(k), or (2) to a tax sheltered annuity described in

obligations hereunder and the minimum funding standard, which shall be
considered met if at the end of each Plan Year, the Plan insofar as it relates
to the Employer does not have an accumulated funding deficiency, as defined in

contribute to the plan with respect to each Plan Year an amount sufficient to
prevent the occurrence of an accumulated funding deficiency.  The Committee
shall notify each Employer of the existence of an accumulated funding.
deficiency but failure to so notify an Employer shall not relieve the Employer
from its obligations hereunder.  The Committee shall take whatever action is
appropriate to prevent an accumulated funding deficiency, including making
application for a variance from the minimum funding standard or an extension of
amortization periods or establishing an alternative minimum funding standard in
accordance with Sections 303, 304 and 305 of ERISA and Code Section 412.

return for the year with respect to which the contribution is made, including
extensions thereof the Internal Revenue Service grants.  In determining when to

obligations under this Plan have been fully satisfied as provided in Section
7.4, except as follows:

     (a) in the case of a contribution, or any part thereof, made under a
         mistake of fact, the Employer may recover such contribution within one
         year of payment;

     (b) in the case of contribution conditioned on the initial qualification of
         the Plan and Trust under the Code, if the Plan and Trust receive an
         adverse determination from the Internal Revenue Service regarding such
         initial qualification, the Employer may recover such contribution as
         adjusted for gains, earnings and losses within one year after such
         determination; and

     (c) because all contributions are conditioned on deductibility, in the
         event that an Employer cannot deduct a contribution pursuant to Code
         Section 404, the Employer may recover such contribution, to the extent
         disallowed, within one year after the disallowance of the deduction.

     The amount which may be returned to the Employer is the excess of: (a) the
amount the Employer contributed over (b) the amount that the Employer would have
contributed had a mistake of fact or a mistake in determining the deduction not
occurred.  Earnings attributable to the excess contribution may not be returned
to the Employer, but losses attributable thereto must reduce the amount to be
returned.

Article V, provided that he (i) has not yet attained his Early Retirement Date
and (ii) is not receiving benefits under a short term or long-term disability
plan or similar program the Employer sponsors or to which the Employer
contributes.  If the Participant, after completion of 10 or more Years of

determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in
death or to be of long-continued and indefinite duration, and it is not the

Committee may require such proof of disability as will be satisfactory to it,
and may withhold payments until such proof is provided.

disabled, his Disability Benefit shall cease, and he may, if he meets the
eligibility requirement, apply for a Normal or Early Retirement Benefit.  If the
Participant's application is approved, payments under either of these pensions
shall commence as of the first day of the month following the termination of the
Disability Benefit.  The Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion,

Section 5.1 Benefits Limited by Plan Provisions in Effect.
            --------------------------------------------- 

     (a)    The benefit to which a Participant under this Plan is entitled,
subject to subsection (b), shall be determined by the provisions of the Plan
which were in effect on the date the Participant last earned an Hour of Service
with an Employer. No amendment made to the Plan after such date shall affect the
entitlement of a Participant to any benefit hereunder, unless the amendment
specifically provides to the contrary.

     (b)    In determining a Participant's Accrued Benefit under this Plan, his
UPS Benefit Service, UPS Vesting Service and UPS Compensation shall be
calculated in accordance with the terms of the UPS Retirement Plan in effect on
the date the Participant last earned an Hour of Service under this Plan or the
UPS Retirement Plan prior to his Annuity Starting Date.

     Section 5.2 Benefit Amounts.  Subject to the limitations set forth in this
                 ---------------                                               
Article V, the amount of the monthly benefit payable to a Participant in form of
a single life annuity shall be the following amount:

     (a)    Normal Retirement Benefit.  For a Participant who retires on or

after his Normal Retirement Date, the larger of the benefit described in
paragraph 5.2(a)(1) or paragraph 5.2(a)(2) below:

     (1)    1/12th of 50 percent of a Participant's Final Average Compensation
less 1/12th of 50 percent of his Social Security Amount where a Participant has
30 or more years of Benefit Service and UPS Benefit Service.  If a Participant
has less than 30 years of Benefit Service and UPS Benefit Service at his Annuity
Starting Date, his monthly benefit will be the amount calculated above
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of years of
Benefit Service and UPS Benefit Service to his Annuity Starting Date, and the
denominator of which is 30.  However, in no event shall the monthly benefit
determined above be less than the highest retirement benefit that could have
been payable to the Participant on an Early Retirement Date (adjusted for any
increases since such Early Retirement Date in the Primary Old Age Insurance
Benefit under the Federal Social Security Act).

(2)  The sum of:

     (i)    1/12th of two percent of the Participant's Final Average
Compensation up to $48,000, multiplied by his years of Benefit Service and UPS
Benefit Service to a maximum of 30; plus
<PAGE>
 
     (ii)   one-half of one percent of the Participant's Final Average
Compensation in excess of $48,000, multiplied by his years of Benefit Service
and UPS Benefit Service to a maximum of 30.

     (b)    Early Retirement Benefit.  The amount of the Early Retirement 
            ------------------------   
Benefit payable to such Participant shall be an amount equal to the benefit
determined under paragraphs (1) or (2) of subsection 5.2(a) above, whichever is
the larger amount, reduced by one-quarter of one percent for each month,
including a partial month, by which the Participant's Annuity Starting Date
precedes his 65th birthday. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant
has earned, as of his Annuity Starting Date, at least 25 years of Benefit
Service and UPS Benefit Service:

     (1)    The reduction described above shall apply to his benefit determined
under paragraph (1) of subsection 5.2(a) only with respect to each month,
including a partial month, by which the Participant's Annuity Starting Date
precedes his 60th birthday; and

     (2)    The reduction described above shall not apply to his benefit
determined under paragraph (2) of subsection 5.2(a).

     (c)    Deferred Vested Benefit.  The amount of the Deferred Vested Benefit
            -----------------------                                            
payable to a Participant shall be equal to the benefit determined under
paragraphs (1) or (2) of subsection 5.2(a), above, whichever produces the larger
amount, reduced by one-half of one percent for each month, including a partial
month, by which the Participant's Annuity Starting Date precedes his 65th
birthday.

Section 5.3 Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit.
            -------------------------------------

(a)  Payment of Benefit in Form of Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit.
     ------------------------------------------------------------------ 

     (1)    If on the Annuity Starting Date of a Participant's Normal or Early
Retirement Benefit or Deferred Vested Benefit the Participant is married, such
benefit shall be paid in the form of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit
unless an election under subsection 5.3(b) is in effect.  The benefit under the
Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the
Participant's benefit as determined under this Article V and payable in the form
of a single life annuity.

     Under the Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit, a monthly benefit shall be
paid to the Participant for his lifetime, and his spouse, as of the Annuity
Starting Date, if surviving at the Participant's death, shall be entitled to
receive thereafter a lifetime survivorship benefit in a monthly amount equal to
50 percent of the monthly amount which had been payable to the Participant.  The
last payment of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit shall be made as of the
first day of the
<PAGE>
 
     month in which the death of the latter to die of the Participant and his
spouse has occurred.

     (2)    If the Participant is not married on the Annuity Starting Date, he
shall receive the monthly benefit determined under Section 5.2 and payable in
the form of a single life annuity, the last payment of which shall be made as of
the first day of the month in which the Participant's death occurs.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a Participant may, within the 90-day
period ending on the Annuity Starting Date, elect to receive a reduced monthly
benefit payable in the form of a single life annuity with a guarantee of 120
monthly payments.  Such monthly payment shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the
Participant's monthly benefit payable in the form of a single life annuity.
Under this option, if the Participant dies after the Annuity Starting Date but
before receiving 120 monthly payments, the monthly payments shall be paid to the
Participant's beneficiary, designated in accordance with Section 5.9, until the
Participant and his beneficiary have received a total of 120 monthly payments.

     (b)    Election out of Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit.  In lieu of 
            ----------------------------------------------------   
the Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit, a Participant may elect, at any time
within the 90 day period ending on the Annuity Starting Date, to waive such
benefit in favor of a monthly benefit payable in the form of (i) a single life
annuity or (ii) a single life annuity with a guarantee of 120 monthly payments
(as described in paragraph 5.3(a)(2)).

     (1)    Form of Election.  An election by a Participant under this 
            ----------------   
subsection (b) must be in writing in a form the Committee approves, and shall
not be effective unless:

     (A)    the spouse of the Participant consents to the election, and such
consent (i) is in writing, (ii) acknowledges the Participant's selection of an
alternate form of benefit and/or survivor beneficiary, which may not thereafter
be changed without spousal consent unless the spouse's prior consent expressly
permits the Participant to change the survivor beneficiary without further
consent by the spouse, (iii) acknowledges the effect of such election, and (iv)
is witnessed by a notary public; or

     (B)    it is established to the satisfaction of a representative of the
Plan that the spouse's consent cannot be obtained because (i) the Participant
has no spouse, (ii) the Participant's spouse cannot be located, or (iii) one of
the conditions prescribed in Treasury regulations is satisfied.

(2)  Revocation of Election.  A Participant may revoke an election made under
     ----------------------                                                  
this subsection (b) at any time prior to the Annuity Starting Date.
<PAGE>
 
(c)  Notice Requirements.
     ------------------- 

     (1)    No less than 30 days and no more than 90 days prior to the
Participant's Annuity Starting Date, the Committee shall provide the Participant
with a written explanation of:

(A)  the terms and conditions of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit;

(B)  the Participant's right to make, and the effect of, an election to waive
the Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit;

     (C)    the requirement that the Participant's spouse consent in writing to
the election in accordance with the spousal consent provisions set forth in
subsection (b); and

(D)  the right to make, and the effect of, a revocation of an election not to
receive a Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit.

     (2)    A payment may commence at any time following seven days after the
day the Committee provides the explanation described in paragraph (c) (1),
provided that:

     (A)    the Committee informs the Participant that the Participant has at
least 30 days after receiving the explanation to consider the optional forms of
payment and the Participant elects payment,

(B)  if the Participant is married, there is applicable spousal consent, and

     (C)    the Committee permits the Participant to revoke the election the
Participant makes under paragraph (2)(A) any time prior to the expiration of the
seven-day period.

     (d)    Cash-Out of Benefits.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
            --------------------                                               
Plan, if following a Participant's termination of employment the present value
of his vested Normal Retirement Benefit or Deferred Vested Benefit does not
exceed $3,500, the Committee shall, in lieu of such benefit, pay to the
Participant, without his consent, such present value in a lump sum.  The present
value of the Participant's benefit for this purpose shall be determined by using
the interest rate and mortality table indicated in subsection 5.7(b). In the
case of a Participant who terminates employment prior to earning a vested
benefit hereunder, said benefit shall be deemed to be distributed immediately
following such termination of employment.  In the event the Participant is
<PAGE>
 
reemployed, his Benefit Service with respect thereto may be restored in
accordance with the rules set forth at subsection 5.3(e).

     (e)    Repayment of Cash-Out.  After a distribution described in subsection
            ---------------------                                               
5.3(d), the Participant's Benefit Service (including, if applicable, UPS Benefit
Service) with respect to which the distribution was made shall be disregarded
for purposes of the Plan unless, following reemployment, the Participant repays
the amount of the distribution to the Trustee together with interest at the rate
of 120 percent of the Federal mid-term rate, as in effect under Code Section
1274 for the first month of the Plan Year in which the restoration occurs or
otherwise in accordance with Code Section 41 1 (a)(7).  Such repayment must be
made within five years of the Participant's resumption of employment with an
Employer.

Section 5.4 Disability Benefit.
            ------------------ 

     (a)    Subject to the provisions of Section 5.8, the amount of monthly
benefit to which a Participant is entitled under Section 4.5 because of
disability shall be equal to the amount determined by multiplying $9.60 by the
number of years of Benefit Service and UPS Benefit Service to a maximum of 30
that the Participant completed prior to his disability.

     (b)    This Disability Benefit shall be paid to the disabled Participant,
so long as he remains disabled, until he attains his Early Retirement Date at
which time the Participant will receive in lieu of such Disability Benefit an
Early Retirement Benefit. Such Early Retirement Benefit will be paid in the form
of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit described in paragraph 5.3(a)(1)
commencing on the Participant's Early Retirement Date. The amount of the Early
Retirement Benefit shall be determined in accordance with this Article V,
without reduction on account of a Disability Benefit previously paid. In no
event shall a Participant receive simultaneously a Disability Benefit under this
Section and an Early Retirement Benefit.

     (c)    A vested Participant who is totally and permanently disabled and has
been receiving disability benefits under a short-term or long-term disability
plan or similar program the Employer sponsors or to which the Employer
contributes, shall receive, unless prohibited by the terms of such plan or
program, upon attaining his Early Retirement Date, an Early Retirement Benefit
in lieu of such disability benefit. The amount of such Early Retirement Benefit
shall be calculated in accordance with Article V, and shall be paid in the form
of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit described in paragraph 5.3(a)(1)
commencing on the Participant's Early Retirement Date. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Early Retirement Benefit shall be paid to a Participant during
such period of time if he is receiving benefits under a short-term or long-term
disability plan or similar program the Employer sponsors by or to which the
Employer contributes.
<PAGE>
 
            (d) If a vested married Participant receiving a Disability Benefit
     in accordance with this Section dies prior to attaining his Early
     Retirement Date, his spouse shall receive the Qualified Joint and Survivor
     Preretirement Survivor Benefit in accordance with the terms of Section 5.5
     commencing on what would have been the Participant's Early Retirement Date,
     based on the Participant's Benefit Service and UPS Benefit Service.

     Section 5.5 Qualified Joint and Survivor (Husband and Wife) Preretirement
                 -------------------------------------------------------------
Survivor Benefit.
- ---------------- 

            (a) Each vested Participant shall have the Qualified Joint and
     Survivor Benefit as described in Section 5.3 effective for the benefit of
     his spouse so that if the Participant dies prior to his Annuity Starting
     Date his spouse will be entitled to receive a Preretirement Survivor
     Benefit commencing:

            (1) if the Participant dies after attaining his Early Retirement
            Date, as of the first day of the month coincident with or next
            following the date of the Participant's death; and

     (2)    if the Participant dies on or before attaining his Early Retirement
Date, as of the first day of the month coincident with or next following the
date the Participant would have attained his Early Retirement Date.

     (b)    The Preretirement Survivor Benefit to which the Participant's
surviving spouse shall be entitled hereunder shall be equal to the amount which
would have been payable to the Participant's spouse under the Qualified Joint
and Survivor Benefit:

     (1)    if the Participant dies after he attains his Early Retirement Date,
had the Participant retired and commenced receiving benefits on the day
immediately preceding his death;

(2)  if the Participant dies on or before attaining his Early Retirement Date,
had the Participant:

(A)  separated from service on the date of his death (or his actual date of
separation, if earlier);

     (B)    survived to his Early Retirement Date;

(C)  retired with an immediate Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit at his
Early Retirement Date; and

(D)  died on the day after he would have attained his Early Retirement Date.
<PAGE>
 
     (c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant dies before
attaining his Early Retirement Date while actively employed by an Employer after
having earned at least 25 Years of Benefit Service and UPS Benefit Service, the
Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit used as the basis for calculating the
amount of the Preretirement Survivor Benefit shall be determined by using the
early commencement reduction factors set forth in paragraphs (1) and (2) of
subsection 5.2(b) with respect to Early Retirement Benefits.

     (d)    The Participant's surviving spouse may elect to defer commencement
of the Preretirement Survivor Benefit, but not later than the date the
Participant would have attained his Normal Retirement Date.

     (e)    In lieu of the Preretirement Survivor Benefit described in this
Section 5.5, before the first payment with respect to such benefit, the
Committee shall pay to the surviving spouse, without his consent, the present
value of the benefit if such present value does not exceed $3,500. Such present
value shall be determined by using the interest rate and mortality table
indicated in subsection 5.7(b).

     Section 5.6 Coordination with Benefits Under UPS Retirement Plan and UPS
                 ------------------------------------------------------------
Pension Plan.  The benefits otherwise provided in Sections 5.2 through 5.5 of
- -------                                                                      
this Plan shall be reduced in the case of any Participant, disabled Participant
or beneficiary, by the amount of any benefits payable to such Participant,
disabled Participant or beneficiary under the UPS Retirement Plan or the UPS
Pension Plan to the extent that such benefits payable under the UPS Retirement
or UPS Pension Plan are based on a period of time included in the calculation of
UPS Benefit Service for purposes of this Plan.

     If a reduction in benefits is also called for in another plan or plans UPS
maintains by reason of the benefits payable to a Participant under this Plan,
the reduction in benefits shall be made only in the benefits payable under the
plan in which the Participant last participated, and if he participated in more
than one such other plan, then the reduction shall be made in the reverse order
of participation with no reduction in the benefits payable under the plan in
which the Participant first participated.

     If the Participant receives one form of benefit under this Plan and another
form of benefit under the UPS Retirement Plan or UPS Pension Plan, any reduction
hereunder shall be based on actuarially equivalent forms of benefit.

     Section 5.7 Determination of Present Value of Benefits.  Anything to the
                 ------------------------------------------                  
contrary notwithstanding, a retirement benefit computed under this Article V
shall be subject to the following:
<PAGE>
 
(a)    Maximum Benefits.
       ---------------- 

         (1)  General Limitation. The maximum annual benefit payable under this
              ------------------
Plan shall not exceed the lesser of: (i) $90,000 (the "Dollar Limitation") or
(ii) 100 percent of the Participant's average compensation (as defined in
Treasury Regulations Section 1.415-2(d)) and reduced, if necessary, to reflect
the applicable Compensation limit set forth in subsection 1 - 1 (k), paid for
three consecutive calendar years during which he was an active Participant in
this Plan or the UPS Retirement Plan, and in which he received the greatest
aggregate compensation from an Employer or UPS, subject to the following:

          (A) If the benefit is payable in any form other than a straight life
           annuity, then the limitations of this subsection (1) shall be applied
           by adjusting such benefit so that it is the actuarial equivalent of a
           straight life annuity.  In making such adjustment, the interest rate
           assumption shall be the greater of five percent (the Applicable
           Interest Rate described in subsection 5.7(b) in the case of a lump
           sum benefit) or the interest rate specified in subsection 1. l(b) of
           the Plan, and the mortality table used shall be the "Applicable
           Mortality Table" described in subsection 5.7(b).

(B)    For purposes of determining whether the Dollar Limitation of this
paragraph (1) is being observed:

       (i)   If the retirement benefit of a Participant commences before the
Participant's Social Security Retirement Age, the Defined Benefit Dollar
Limitation shall be adjusted so that it is the actuarial equivalent of an annual
benefit of $90,000 beginning at the Social Security Retirement Age, multiplied
by the Inflation Factor.  The adjustment provided for in the preceding sentence
shall be made in a manner the Secretary of the Treasury prescribes which is
consistent with the reduction for old-age insurance benefits commencing before
the Social Security Retirement Age under the Social Security Act.  In making
such adjustment, the interest rate assumption shall not be less than the greater
of five percent or the interest rate specified in subsection 1. l(b) of the
Plan, and the mortality table used shall be the "Applicable Mortality Table"
described in subsection 5.7(b).

       (ii)  If the retirement benefit of a Participant commences after the
             Participant's Social Security Retirement Age, the Defined Benefit
             Dollar Limitation shall be adjusted so that it is the actuarial
             equivalent of a benefit of $90,000 beginning at the Social Security
             Retirement Age, multiplied by the Inflation Factor. In making such
             adjustment, the interest rate assumption shall be the lesser of
<PAGE>
 
five percent or the interest rate specified in subsection 1. 1 (b) of the Plan,
and the mortality table used shall be the "Applicable Mortality Table" described
in subsection 5.7(b) of the Plan.

(iii) For the purposes of this subparagraph (b)(1)(B), the following definitions
shall apply:

     (I) "Inflation Factor" shall mean the cost of living adjustment factor the
Secretary of the Treasury prescribes under Code Section 415(d) applied to such
items and in such manner as the Secretary shall prescribe.

     (II) "Social Security Retirement Age" shall mean the age used as the
retirement age for the Participant under Section 216(l) of the Social Security
Act, except that such section shall be applied without regard to the age
increase factor, and as if the early retirement age under Section 216(l)(2) of
such Act were 62.

     (C) Subject to limitations imposed elsewhere in this Plan, an annual
benefit of $10,000 or less may be paid regardless of the limitations set forth
in this subsection (a)(1) if the benefit paid the Participant from all defined
benefit plans of an Employer does not exceed $10,000 for the Plan Year or any
prior Plan Year, and the Employer has not at any time maintained a defined
contribution plan in which the Participant participated.

     (D) If a Participant has less than 10 Years of Service at the time the
Participant begins to receive retirement benefits under this Plan, the average
compensation limitation, as well as the $10,000 benefit exception described in
subparagraph (a)(1)(E) above, shall be reduced by multiplying such limitation by
a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Years of Service as of and
including the current limitation year, and the denominator of which is 10.  In
the case of the Dollar Limitation where the Participant has less than 10 years
of participation in this Plan and/or the UPS Retirement Plan, such limitation
shall be reduced by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of years of
participation in the Plan as of and including the current limitation year, and
the denominator of which is 10.

     (2)  Limitation--Two Types of Plans.  In any case in which a Participant
          ------------------------------
     has at any time participated in this Plan and a defined contribution plan
     an Employer or a Related Company maintained, the sum of the defined benefit
     fraction and the defined contribution fraction for any limitation year
<PAGE>
 
beginning before December 31, 1999 may not exceed 1.0. For any limitation year
beginning after December 31, 1999, such limitation shall not apply.

(A)    The defined benefit fraction applicable to a Participant for any
limitation year is a fraction

       (i) the numerator of which is the projected annual benefit of the
Participant, determined as of the close of the limitation year, under all
defined benefit plans an Employer or a Related Company maintains and

(ii)   the denominator of which is for limitation years commencing after
December 31, 1982, the lesser of
  
       (I)  the product of 1.25 multiplied by the Dollar Limitation in effect
under Code Section 415(b)(1)(A) for such year (including any adjustment required
or permitted by subsection 235(g)(4) of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility
Act of 1982) or

       (II) the product of 1.4 multiplied by an amount equal to 100 percent of
the Participant's average compensation (as defined in Treasury Regulation
Section 1.415-2(d)) and reduced, if necessary, to reflect the applicable
Compensation limit set forth in subsection 1.1 (k) for the three consecutive
calendar years during which he participated in the Plan or the UPS Retirement
Plan and in which he had the greatest aggregate compensation from an Employer, a
Related Company or UPS.

(B)    The defined contribution fraction applicable to a Participant for any
limitation year is a fraction

       (i) the numerator of which is the sum of the annual additions for all
limitation years to the Participant's accounts, determined as of the close of
the limitation year, under all defined contribution plans an Employer or a
Related Company maintained and

          (ii) the denominator of which is the sum of the lesser of the
               following amounts determined for the present limitation year and
               each prior limitation year of the Participant's service with an
               Employer or a Related Company:
<PAGE>
 
               (I)  1.25 multiplied by the Dollar Limitation in effect under
                    Code Section 415(c)(1)(A) for such limitation year; or

               (II) 1.4 multiplied by 25 percent of the Participant's
                    compensation (as defined in Code Section 415(c)(3) and
                    reduced, if necessary, to reflect the applicable
                    Compensation limit set forth in subsection 1. 1 (k) of the
                    Plan for such limitation year.

     (3) Limitation Adjustment.  The rate of a Participant's benefit accrual
         ---------------------                                              
will be automatically frozen or reduced to a level necessary to prevent the
limitations of this subsection (a) from being exceeded; provided, that if the
limitations of this subsection (a) will be exceeded only as a result of
considering another defined benefit plan an Employer or a Related Company
sponsors and this Plan as one plan, the Participant's benefit accrual under this
Plan will not be frozen or reduced to a level necessary to prevent the
limitations of this subsection (a) from being exceeded in the event that such
other defined benefit plan provides for the freezing or reduction of benefit
accruals.

     (4) Single Plan Rule.  For purposes of this subsection (a), all defined
         ----------------                                                   
benefit plans of an Employer or a Related Company (whether or not terminated)
shall be considered as one defined benefit plan.

     (5)  Automatic Adjustment.  The limitations imposed by this subsection (b)
          --------------------                                                 
          shall be adjusted automatically when permitted or required by law.
          With respect to increases in these limitations which are permitted by
          law to reflect the impact of inflation, in the event that a
          Participant's Normal or Early Retirement Benefit, as determined in
          accordance with Article V as of his Annuity Starting Date, must be
          reduced by reason of the foregoing limitations in effect at such time,
          the following rules shall apply:

     (A) A Participant's Normal or Early Retirement Benefit determined at his
Annuity Starting Date in accordance with Article V, taking into account the
Compensation limitation described at subsection 1. 1 (k) which is applicable at
such time (the "Compensation Limitation "), and applying the applicable
limitation or limitations at paragraph 5.7(a)(1) or subparagraph 5.7(a)(1)(B)(i)
(as applicable, the "415 limitations") shall, following the Annuity Starting
Date, be adjusted upward as the result of any subsequent increase in the 415
limitations, provided however, that in no event shall such benefit exceed the
Participant's Normal or Early Retirement Benefit determined as of the
Participant's Annuity Starting Date in accordance with Article V, including the
Compensation Limitation.
<PAGE>
 
     (B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall participant's Normal
or Early Retirement Benefit, for any particular year, exceed the 415 limitation
for such year (based on the Participant's age on his Annuity Starting Date), and
no increase as described in subparagraph (A) above shall be retroactive for any
preceding year.

     (C) A Participant's Normal or Early Retirement benefit shall not be
adjusted upward as the result of any change to the Compensation Limitation
following the Annuity Starting Date.

     (6) Limitation Year.  For purposes of this subsection (a), the limitation
         ---------------                                                      
year is the calendar year.

     (7) Annual Addition.  For purposes of this subsection (a), the term "annual
         ---------------                                                        
addition" means the sum of the following credited to a Participant's account for
any limitation year:

         (i)the Employer's contributions;

         (ii)the Employee's contributions; and

         (iii)forfeitures.

(b)  Determination of Present Value.
     ------------------------------ 

     (1) For purposes of (A) determining whether the present value of a
Participant's vested Accrued Benefit, Qualified Joint and Survivor Benefit or
Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Benefit exceeds $3,500, or (B) determining the
amount of a Participant's vested Accrued Benefit upon termination of the Plan,
the present value of such benefit or annuity shall be calculated by using the
Applicable Mortality Table and the Applicable Interest Rate.

     (2) The "Applicable Mortality Table" means the mortality table the
Secretary of the Treasury prescribes, based on the prevailing commissioners'
standard table (described in Code Section 807(d)(5)(A)) used to determine
reserves for group annuity contracts issued on the date as of which present
value is being determined (without regard to any other subparagraph of Code
Section 807(d)(5)).  As of January 1, 1995, the Applicable Mortality Table
pursuant to the foregoing is the GAM 83 mortality table.

     (3) "Applicable Interest Rate" means the annual rate of interest on 30-
year Treasury securities for the month before the date of distribution or such
other time as the Secretary of the Treasury may by regulations prescribe.
<PAGE>
 
(c)  Incorporation by Reference.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
     --------------------------                                              
     this Section 5.7, the limitations on maximum benefits payable from this
     Plan shall be construed in accordance with Code Section 415 and the
     regulations thereunder, which are incorporated into this Plan by reference.

Section 5.8 Limitations Regarding Time of Payment of Benefits.
            ------------------------------------------------- 

     (a) General Limitation.  All payments authorized under this Plan shall
         ------------------                                                
commence no later than the 60th day after the close of the Plan Year in which
the Participant terminates his service with an Employer or UPS, provided proper
application under Section 4.1 is filed.

     (b)  Mandatory Limitation.
          -------------------- 

          (1)     Commencement of payments.  Notwithstanding subsection (a), the
                  ------------------------                                      
     entire interest of a Participant shall be, or shall begin to be,
     distributed no later than April 1 of the calendar year following the
     calendar year in which he attains age 70 1/2. A Participant who receives a
     distribution or distributions in accordance with the preceding sentence
     while still employed shall continue to earn years of Benefit Service (up to
     a maximum of 30 years), and the amount of his benefit shall be adjusted
     annually, or otherwise in accordance with Treasury regulations.  For any
     Participant who attains 70 1/2 after January 1, 1999, the entire interest
     shall be, or shall begin to be, distributed no later than April 1 of the
     calendar year following the later of calendar year in which he either
     attains age 70 1/2 or retires.

          (2) Payments after death of Participant or spouse.  If distribution of
              ---------------------------------------------                     
     a Participant's interest has begun as provided in paragraph (1), and the
     Participant dies before his entire interest has been distributed to him,
     then the remaining portion of such interest shall be distributed at least
     as rapidly as under the method of periodic distribution being used on the
     date of his death.  If a Participant dies before distribution of his
     benefit has begun, then the entire interest of the Participant shall be
     distributed within five years after the death of the Participant unless one
     of the following exceptions applies:

               (A) If any portion of the Participant's interest is payable to a
          designated beneficiary for life, or over a period not extending beyond
          such beneficiary's life expectancy, and such distributions begin not
          later than one year after the Participant's death or such longer
          period as may be prescribed by Treasury regulations, distribution
          shall be deemed to have occurred on the date periodic distributions
          began and the five-year limitation shall not apply to such portion.
<PAGE>
 
               (B)     If the designated beneficiary is the Participant's
          surviving spouse, distributions shall begin not later than the date on
          which the Participant would have attained age 70-1/2; but if the
          surviving spouse dies before distributions to such spouse begin, the
          above distribution rules shall be applied as though the surviving
          spouse were the Participant.

          (3) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the form and
     timing of all distributions under the Plan shall be in accordance with the
     Treasury regulations issued under Code Section 401(a)(9), including the
     incidental death benefit requirement of Code Section 401(a)(9)(G).

Section 5.9 Designation of Beneficiary.
            -------------------------- 

     (a) Each Participant may designate beneficiaries (including a primary
beneficiary and one or more contingent beneficiaries in the event of the death
of the primary beneficiary) to receive such benefits as may be payable under the
provisions of this Plan.  The Participant may change the designation of any
beneficiary from time to time by filing a new designation with the Committee, to
be effective upon receipt by the Committee, provided the Committee receives it
prior to the Participant's death.  The consent of any previously designated
beneficiary to such change shall not be required to effect the change.  No
designation of a beneficiary shall be effective to the extent that honoring such
designation would conflict with the rights of the Participant's spouse under
Section 5.3 or Section 5.5, and no such designation shall be effective to the
extent that, in conjunction with such spousal rights, it would require
duplication of benefit payments.

     (b) In the event that a Participant fails to designate a beneficiary or if
a designated beneficiary does not survive the Participant or is not specified
elsewhere in this Plan, payment will be made to the spouse of the deceased
Participant, if any, but if none survives the Participant, to his surviving
children. If no children survive the Participant, payment will be made to the
Participant's estate. If a beneficiary who has begun to receive payments
pursuant to Article V dies before all payments are made, the balance due, if
any, shall be paid in a lump sum or in installments, as the Committee shall
direct, to the estate of the deceased beneficiary.

     Section 5.10 Final Payment to Participant or Beneficiary.  Any final
                  -------------------------------------------            
payment or distribution to any Participant or a legal representative or
beneficiary of a Participant, or any one claiming under them, in accordance with
this Plan, shall be in full satisfaction of all claims against the Trust Fund,
the Trustee, the Committee, the Company, each Employer and all representatives,
officers, employees and agents thereof.  The person receiving the payment or
distribution may be required to execute a receipt and release of all claims
under the Plan upon a final payment or distribution or a receipt and release to
the extent of any partial payment or distribution.  The Committee shall
determine the form and content of such receipt or release.

Section 5.11  Suspension of Benefits
              ----------------------

     (a) If a Participant entitled to receive benefits (which shall be deemed to
include the actual receipt of such benefits) should (1) return to employment
with an Employer or (prior to attaining age 65) with UPS or (2) remain in
employment with an Employer after attaining age 65, the payment of benefits to
the Participant shall be suspended for the period in which the Participant
remains employed but not beyond the required beginning date set forth in
subparagraph 5.8(b)(1)(A). Benefit payments will be resumed no later than the
first day of the third calendar month after the month in which the Participant
ceases to be employed as aforesaid (or attains age 65 in the case of a
Participant who has returned to employment with UPS), provided the Participant
has informed the Committee that he has ceased such employment.

     (b) For purposes of this Section 5.11, a period of employment as to which
benefits shall be suspended means any calendar month or a four or five week
period ending in a calendar month, if the Participant completes at least 40
hours of service (as defined in 29 CFR (S) 2530.200b-2(a)(1) and (2)) with an
Employer in such month or payroll period.

     (c) Any Participant coming under this provision will be notified by first-
class mail or personal delivery within the first calendar month or payroll
period in which the Plan withholds the payment of benefits.

     (d) Any Participant may request a determination of whether specific
contemplated employment will be considered employment for purposes of this
Section 5.11. Request for status determinations may be submitted in accordance
with the claim procedures set forth in Section 9.4.

Section 5.12 Withholding of Income Tax.
             ------------------------- 

     (a) Notification of Withholding of Federal Income Tax.  All Participants
         -------------------------------------------------                   
and beneficiaries entitled to receive benefits under the Plan shall be notified
of the Plan's obligation to withhold federal income tax from any benefits
payable pursuant to the terms of the Plan.  Such notice shall be in writing, be
given at the time set forth in subsection (b) and contain the information set
forth in subsection (c).

     (b) Time of Notice.  The notice described in subsection (a) shall be
         ---------------                                                 
provided not earlier than six months before such payment is to be made and not
later than the time the Participant or beneficiary is furnished with his claim
for benefits application.

     (c) Content of the Notice.  The notice subsection (a) requires shall, at a
         ---------------------
minimum:
<PAGE>
 
          (1) with respect to any distribution which is an eligible rollover
     distribution within the meaning of Code Section 3405(c)(3) (other than an
     eligible rollover distribution of less than $200 which is exempt from
     withholding under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury),
     advise the payee that there shall be withheld from such distribution an
     amount equal to 20 percent thereof (or such other amount as may from time
     to time be prescribed by the Code, or the Secretary of the Treasury or his
     delegate), unless the payee directs the Committee to transfer such
     distribution as a direct rollover to an eligible retirement plan, within
     the meaning of Section 5.13 hereof, in accordance with such procedures as
     the Committee may prescribe (a "transfer direction"),

          (2) with respect to any distribution which is not an eligible rollover
     distribution within the meaning of Code Section 3405(c)(3):

               (A) advise the payee of his right to elect not to have
          withholding apply to any payment or distribution and explain the
          manner in which such election may be made, and include or indicate the
          source of any forms necessary to make the election;

               (B) advise the payee of his right to revoke such an election at
          any time;

               (C) advise the payee that any election remains effective until
          revoked;

               (D) advise the payee that penalties may be incurred under the
          estimated tax payment rules if the payee's payments of estimated tax
          are not adequate and sufficient tax is not withheld from payments
          under this Plan; and

               (E) advise the payee that the election not to have federal income
          tax withheld from benefits is prospective only and that any election
          made after a payment or distribution to the payee is not an election
          with respect to such payment or distribution.

     (d) Effective Date of Election.  Any transfer direction, election or
         --------------------------                                      
revocation of any election by a payee shall become effective immediately upon
receipt by the Committee of the transfer direction, election or revocation.
Thereafter, the Committee shall, unless otherwise provided by applicable law,
regulation or other guidance by the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate,
instruct the Trustee to withhold federal income tax in accordance or consistent
with the instructions filed by the payee.
<PAGE>
 
     (e)  Failure to Make Election
          ------------------------

          (1) In the case of an eligible rollover distribution, if the payee
     fails to provide the Committee with a transfer direction, the Committee
     shall instruct the Trustee to withhold an amount equal to 20 percent of the
     amount of the distribution (or such other amount the Code, or the Secretary
     of the Treasury or his delegate) may from time to time prescribe.

          (2) In the case of a distribution which is not an eligible rollover
     distribution, if the payee fails to provide the Committee with a
     withholding certificate, the Committee shall instruct the Trustee to
     withhold, in the case of a periodic distribution, the amount which would be
     required to be withheld from such payment if such payment were a payment of
     wages by an employer to an employee for the appropriate payroll period,
     determined as if the payee were a married person claiming three withholding
     allowances.  In the case of a nonperiodic distribution, 10 percent of the
     amount of the distribution shall be withheld.

     (f) Coordination with Internal Revenue Code and Regulations.  The Committee
         -------------------------------------------------------                
shall discharge its withholding and notice obligations in accordance with the
Code and regulations and such other guidance with respect thereto as the
Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate may promulgate from time to time.

Section 5.13 Direct Rollover.
             --------------- 

          (a)  With respect to any distribution described in this Article V
which constitutes an eligible rollover distribution within the meaning of Code
Section 401 (a) (3 1)   (C), the distributes thereof shall, in accordance with
procedures the Committee establishes, be afforded the opportunity to direct that
such distribution be transferred directly to an eligible retirement plan (a
"direct rollover").  For purposes of the foregoing sentence, an "eligible
retirement plan" is (1) a qualified trust within the meaning of Code Section 402
(c)(8)(A) which is a defined contribution plan the terms of which permit the
acceptance of rollover distributions, (2) an individual retirement account or
annuity within the meaning of Code Section 408 (other than an endowment
contract), or (3) an annuity plan within the meaning of Code Section 403(a),
which the distributes specifies in such form and at such time as the Committee
may prescribe.

          (b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the distributes elects to
have his eligible rollover distribution paid in part to him or her, and paid in
part as a direct rollover:

              (1)    The direct rollover must be in an amount of $500 or more.
<PAGE>
 
              (2)    A direct rollover to two or more eligible retirement plans
          shall not be permitted.

          (c) The Committee shall, within a reasonable period of time prior to
making an eligible rollover distribution from this Plan, provide a written
explanation to the distributes of the direct rollover option described above, as
well as the provisions under which such distribution will not be subject to tax
if transferred to an eligible retirement plan within 60 days after the date on
which the distributes received the distribution.  The distributes shall be
afforded at least 30 days after receipt of the written explanation to consider
the decision whether or not to elect a direct rollover, but if he thereafter
makes an affirmative election, said election may be implemented without regard
to the aforesaid 30-day time period.

          (d) That portion of a Participant's distribution which represents the
minimum distribution that Code Section 401(a)(9) (see in this regard
subparagraph 5.8(b)(1)(A)) requires shall not be considered an eligible rollover
distribution.

interest in the Normal Retirement Benefit to which he is entitled pursuant to
subsection 5.2(a), after five Years of Service, but shall have no vested
interest prior thereto.  In addition, the benefit to which a Participant is
entitled shall be fully vested in such Participant upon his attainment of his
Normal Retirement Date.

     Any Participant in the Plan on the date of adoption of any amendment to the
vesting schedule may, within an election period which begins on the date of
adoption of such amendment to the vesting schedule and ends on the sixtieth day
after the latest of: (i) the date the amendment is adopted; (ii) the date the
amendment becomes effective; or (iii) the date the Participant is given written
notice of the amendment by the Committee, elect to have his vested percentage
determined under his vesting schedule as in effect immediately prior to the
effective date of amendment, provided he has completed three Years of Service
prior to the end of the election period.  Any election will be irrevocable.
Further, no Participant shall have his vested percentage decreased by any change
in the vesting schedule.

     Section 6.2 Breaks in Service for Vesting purposes.  If a Participant with
                 --------------------------------------                        
no vested interest, as determined under Section 6. 1, incurs one or more
consecutive Breaks in Service:

            (a) Years of Service before such Break in Service shall not be taken
     into account for purposes of Section 6.1 until the Participant completes
     one Year of Service after the Break in service; and

            (b) Years of Service prior to the Break in Service shall not be
     taken into account for purposes of Section 6. 1 if the number of
     consecutive Breaks in Service equals or exceeds the greater of (i) the
     aggregate number of the Participant's Years of Service (excluding Years of
     Service not required to be taken into account by reason of any prior Breaks
     in Service), or (ii) five with respect to a Break in Service a person
     incurs who is an Employee on or after January 1, 1985, regardless of when
     the Break in Service occurred.

contributions and shall not be used or applied to increase the benefits to which
any Participant would be entitled hereunder.

     Section 7. 1 Right to Amend or Terminate.  The Company hopes and expects to
                  ---------------------------                                   
continue this Plan and the funding of benefits hereunder indefinitely; but such
continuance is not assumed as a contractual obligation and, in order to protect
Participants, the Company, and the Employers against unforeseen contingencies,
the Company expressly reserves the right, by action of the Board of Directors,
to amend or terminate this Plan at any time.  Additionally, any amendment may be
made retroactive, if necessary or appropriate to qualify or maintain the Plan as
a qualified plan within the meaning of Code Section 401(a), and to qualify or
maintain the Trust as tax-exempt under Code Section 501(a), and the regulations
issued thereunder.  Notice of any material amendment of the Plan may be given by
posting, by mail or by such other means as may be acceptable under ERISA.-

     Section 7.2 Liquidation of Trust Fund.  Upon termination or partial
                 -------------------------                              
termination of the Plan, each affected Participant's benefits, determined prior
to the date of termination, shall become fully vested to the extent funded and
to the extent such benefit is not restricted pursuant to the provisions of
Section 7.8 herein.  The assets of the Trust Fund shall be allocated among
Participants and beneficiaries, after payment of administration expenses of the
Plan, in the following order of priority:

          (a) Benefits Payable Three Years Prior to Termination.  First, to
              -------------------------------------------------            
     provide benefits that become payable three or more years before the date of
     termination of the Plan, or that would have become payable had the
     Participant retired immediately prior to the beginning of such three-year
     period, provided that

              (1) the benefit payable to a Participant or beneficiary (or that
          could have been payable) shall be based on the provisions of the Plan
          in effect during the five year period prior to the date of termination
          of the Plan; and further provided that,

              (2) the lowest benefit payable during such three-year period
          shall be considered the benefit payable for purposes of this category
          (a).

          (b) Other Benefits Eligible for Termination Insurance.  Second, to the
              -------------------------------------------------                 
     extent that a benefit has not been provided in category (a), the remaining
     assets shall be allocated to provide any benefit provided under the Plan
     for Participants and beneficiaries to the extent guaranteed by the Pension
     Benefit Guaranty Corporation pursuant to Title IV of ERISA.

          (c)  Other Benefits.  Third, to the extent that a benefit under the 
               --------------  
     Plan has not been provided in the foregoing categories, the assets of the
     Plan shall be allocated to 
<PAGE>
 
     provide all other non-forfeitable benefits under the Plan and, finally, to
     provide all other benefits under the Plan.

     If the assets of the Trust Fund applicable to any of the above categories
are insufficient to provide full benefits for all persons in such group, the
benefits otherwise payable to such persons shall be allocated pro rata on the
basis of the present value of benefits as of the termination date.  The Actuary
shall calculate the allocation of the assets of the Trust Fund in accordance
with the above priority categories, and certify his calculations to the
Committee.  Each of the above classes shall be divided into subclasses, giving
first preference within the class to those Participants over 65 and those
beneficiaries receiving benefits; second preference to Participants over 60
years of age; third preference to Participants over 55 years of age; fourth
preference to Participants under 55 years of age having a Deferred Vested
Benefit; and fifth preference to all others.  The Committee may establish
additional subclasses within the classes set forth in subsections (a), (b), and
(c).

     Section 7.3 Finality of Payment.  Prior to making any distribution under
                 -------------------                                         
the terms of subsection 7.2, the Committee shall satisfy itself that this
procedure complies with applicable law and shall obtain such waivers and
authorizations from Participants and beneficiaries as it deems advisable.

     Section 7.4 Non-Diversion of Assets.  Except as provided in Section 3.5
                 -----------------------                                    
hereof, no part of the assets of the Trust, by reason of any amendment or
otherwise, shall at any time be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than
for the exclusive benefit of Participants, former Participants or their
beneficiaries, and for the payment of administrative expenses under the Plan, or
as will cause, or permit the assets of the Trust to revert to, or become the
property of the Company or any Employer at any time prior to the satisfaction of
all liabilities under the Plan.  When all such liabilities have been satisfied,
any assets remaining will revert to the Company.

     Section 7.5 Committee Functions During Termination.  If the Plan is
                 --------------------------------------                 
terminated, the Committee in office at the time of such termination shall
continue to act with its full powers hereunder until the completion of the
allocation and distribution of the assets of the Trust Fund as in this Article
VII provided.  A majority of the members of the Committee then 'in office shall
have the power to fill any vacancies occurring in the Committee after such
termination by resignation, death or otherwise.  In the event the Committee
within a reasonable time after such termination shall not have provided for such
allocation and distribution, the Board of Directors shall succeed to all powers
and duties of the Committee and shall provide for such allocation and
distribution of the assets of the Trust Fund.

     Section 7.6 Notice of Termination.  Notice of termination of the Plan, in
                 ---------------------

Committee mails written notice of the same or uses other means as may be
acceptable under ERISA to the latest address on file of each Participant or
beneficiary who is affected by such termination.

     Section 7.7 Merger and Consolidation of Plan, Transfer of Assets.  In the
                 ---------------------------------------------                
case of any merger or consolidation with, or transfer of assets and liabilities
to, any other plan, provisions shall be made so that each Participant in the
Plan on the date thereof (if the Plan then terminated) would receive a benefit
immediately after the merger, consolidation or transfer which is equal to or
greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive immediately
prior to the merger, consolidation or transfer if the Plan had been terminated.

     Section 7.8 Limitation on Benefits.
                 ---------------------- 

          (a) In the event of Plan termination, the benefit payable to any
     Highly Compensated Employee or any former Highly Compensated Employee shall
     be limited to a benefit that is nondiscriminatory under Code Section
     401(a)(4).  If payment of benefits is restricted in accordance with this
     subsection (a), assets in excess of the amount required to provide such
     restricted benefits shall become a part of the assets available under
     Section 7.2 for allocation among Participants and their joint annuitants
     and beneficiaries whose benefits are not restricted under this subsection
     (a).

          (b) The restrictions of this subsection (b) shall apply prior to
     termination of the Plan to any Participant who is a Highly Compensated
     Employee or former Highly Compensated Employee and who is one of the 25
     highest paid nonexcludable employees or former employees of an Employer for
     any Plan Year.  The annual payments to any such Participant shall be
     limited to an amount equal to the payments that would have been made to the
     Participant under a single life annuity that is the Actuarial Equivalent of
     the sum of the Participant's accrued Normal Retirement Benefit and any
     other benefits under the Plan.

          (c) The restrictions in subsection (b) shall not apply:

               (1) if, after the payment of benefits to such Participant, the
          value of the Plan's assets equals or exceeds 1 10 percent of the value
          of the Plan's current liabilities (within the meaning of Code Section
          412(l)(7)); or

               (2) if the value of the benefits payable to such Participant is
          less than one percent of the value of current liabilities.

execute or deliver any instrument, or to make any payment in their behalf, and
may employ legal counsel, actuaries, agents, and such clerical, accounting and
other services as they may require in carrying out the provisions of the Plan.
A majority of the members of the Committee at the time in office shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.  All resolutions or other
action the Committee takes at a meeting shall be by the vote of the majority of
the Committee at any meeting, or without a meeting, by instrument in writing

     Section 9.2 Delegation of Specific Responsibilities.  The members of the
                 ---------------------------------------                     
Committee may agree in a writing each member signs to allocate to any one of
their number or to other persons (including corporations) any of the
responsibilities with which they are charged pursuant hereto, including the
appointment of an investment manager to manage the investments of the Trust
Fund, provided the responsibilities and duties so delegated are definitively set
forth so that the person to whom the delegation is made is clearly aware of such
duties and responsibilities.  If such delegation is made to a person not a
member of the Committee, that person or, in the case of a corporation, its
responsible officer, shall acknowledge the acceptance and understanding of such
duties and responsibilities.

     Section 9.3 Power to Establish Regulations.  The Committee shall establish
                 ------------------------------                                
rules and regulations for the administration of the Plan and the Committee.
Except as otherwise herein expressly provided, the Committee shall have the
exclusive right and discretion to interpret the Plan and decide any matters
arising in the administration and operation of the Plan, and any interpretations
or decisions so made shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.

Section 9.4 Claims Procedure.
            ---------------- 

     (a) All claims for benefits hereunder shall be directed to the Committee or
to a member of the Committee designated for that purpose.  Within 90 days
following receipt of a claim for benefits, the Committee shall determine whether
the claimant is entitled to benefits under the Plan, unless additional time is
required for processing the claim.  In this event, the Committee shall, within
the initial 90-day period, notify the claimant that additional time is needed,
explain the reason for the extension, and indicate
<PAGE>
 
when a decision on the claim will be made, which must be within 180 days of the
date the claim is filed.

     (b) A denial by the Committee of a claim for benefits shall be stated in
writing and delivered or mailed to the claimant.  Such notice shall set forth
the specific reasons for the denial, written in a manner calculated to be
understood by the claimant without benefit of legal or actuarial counsel.  The
notice shall include specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the
denial is based and a description of any additional material or information
necessary to perfect the claim, an explanation of why this material or
information is necessary, and the steps to be taken if the claimant wishes to
submit his claim for review.

     (c) The Committee shall afford a reasonable opportunity to any claimant
whose request for benefits has been denied for a review of the decision denying
the claim.  The review must be requested by written application to the Committee
within 60 days following receipt by the claimant of written notification of
denial of his claim.  Pursuant to this review, the claimant or his duly
authorized representative may review any documents which are pertinent to the
denied claim and submit issues and comments in writing.

     (d) The Committee shall ordinarily make a decision on the claimant's appeal
of the denial of benefits within 60 days of the receipt of the request for
review, unless additional time is required for a decision on review, in which
event the decision shall be reviewed no later than 120 days after receipt of the
request for ruling.  Notice in writing of the extended time required shall be
given to the claimant within 60 days of his request for review.  The decision on
review shall be in writing and shall include specific reasons for the decision,
written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant, and specific
reference to the Plan provisions on which the decision is based.

     Section 9.5 Forfeiture in Case of Unlocatable Participant or Beneficiary.
                 ------------------------------------------------------------  
If the Committee is unable to pay any benefits under the Plan to any Participant
or beneficiary who is entitled to benefits hereunder when such benefits are due
because the identity or whereabouts of such person cannot be ascertained, the
Committee shall proceed as follows:

     (a) Within 90 days of the date any such benefits are payable but cannot be
paid hereunder due to the circumstances stated above, the Committee shall send
an appropriate notice to such individual, to the last address for such
individual listed in the Committee's records.

     (b) If this notice is returned as unclaimed or the individual cannot be
located, during each of the next three Plan Years the Committee shall send a
notice to the last address listed in its records for the individual.
<PAGE>
 
     (c) If on the last day of the last of the three Plan Years referred to
above the individual cannot be located, all amounts held for his benefit shall
be forfeited and all liability for payment thereof shall thereupon terminate,
unless the law requires another procedure.  In any such case, the funds released
as a result of such forfeiture shall be dealt with as provided in Section 6.3.
However, if an individual subsequently makes what the Committee determines to be
a valid and proper claim to the Committee for such amounts, they will be
restored and will be distributable in accordance with the terms of this Plan.

     Section 9.6 Liability of the Committee.  The Committee and the members
                 --------------------------                                
thereof, to the extent of the exercise of their authority, shall discharge their
duties with respect to the Plan solely in the interests of the Plan's
Participants and their beneficiaries, and for the exclusive purpose of providing
benefits thereto in accordance with the terms of the Plan and to defray the
reasonable administration expenses thereof.  In all such actions or omissions
the Committee and each member thereof shall exercise the care, skill, prudence
and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing that a prudent man acting
in a like capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the conduct of an
enterprise of like character and with like aims; provided, however, that no
member shall be responsible for the actions or omissions of a member or any
other party that is a fiduciary with respect to this Plan, other than himself,
which are not in conformity hereto, unless such member knowingly participates in
or knowingly conceals such conduct which he knows to be in breach of this
standard, his own conduct has enabled the other member or other fiduciary to be
in breach of this standard, or he has knowledge of such breach by another member
or other fiduciary and fails to make reasonable efforts under the circumstances
to remedy such breach.

     Section 9.7 Fiduciary Responsibility Insurance, Bonding.  If the Company
                 -------------------------------------------                 
has not done so, the Committee may direct the purchase of appropriate insurance
on behalf of the Plan and the Plan's fiduciaries, including the members of the
Committee, to cover liability or losses occurring by reason of the acts or
omissions of a fiduciary; provided, however, that to the extent the Plan
purchases such insurance must permit recourse by the insurer against the
fiduciary in the case of a breach of a fiduciary duty or obligation by such
fiduciary. The Trust Fund shall bear the cost of such insurance unless the
Company provides and pays for the insurance. The Trustee also shall obtain a
bond covering all the Plan's fiduciaries, and pay for the bond from the assets
of the Trust Fund.

     Section 9.8 Meetings of Committee.  The Committee shall hold meetings
                 ---------------------                                    
periodically upon such notice, at such place or places, and at such time or
times as it may determine from time to time.  Notice of a meeting may be waived
in writing.

     Section 9.9 Compensation of Committee.  The members of the Committee may
                 -------------------------                                   
receive reasonable compensation for their services as the Board of Directors may
from time to time determine.  Such compensation and all other expenses of the
Committee, including the compensation of officers, actuaries or counsel, agents
or others that the Committee may employ, shall be paid out of the Trust Fund,
unless paid by the Company.  Notwithstanding the
<PAGE>
 
foregoing, any Committee member whom an Employer employs on a full-time basis
shall receive no compensation, but may be reimbursed for expenses incurred.

     Section 9.10 Books and Records.  The Committee shall keep appropriate books
                  -----------------                                             
and records.

     Section 9.11 Tables for Calculation.  The Committee shall adopt, from time
                  ----------------------                                       
to time, service, interest and mortality tables for use in all calculations
required in connection with the Plan.

     Section 9.12 Disbursements.  The Committee shall determine the manner in
                  -------------                                              
which the Trust Fund shall be disbursed under the terms of the Plan and Trust
Agreement.

     Section 9.13 Allocation of Responsibility Among Fiduciaries for Plan and
                  -----------------------------------------------------------
Trust Administration.  The fiduciaries hereunder, including the Trustee, the
- ----- --------------                                                        
Company, each Employer, the Board of Directors and the Committee shall have only
those specific powers, duties, responsibilities and obligations as are
specifically given them under this Plan or the Trust Agreement.  In general, the
Employers shall have the sole responsibility for making the contributions
necessary to provide benefits under the Plan as specified in Article V, and the
Board of Directors shall have the sole authority to appoint and remove the
Trustee, members of the Committee and any Investment Manager and to amend or
terminate, in whole or in part, this Plan or the Trust, except as otherwise
provided.  The Committee shall have the sole responsibility for the
administration of this Plan, as described in this Plan and the Trust.  Subject
to any direction from the Committee, the Trustee shall have the responsibility
for the administration of the Trust and the management of the assets held under
the Trust, as specifically provided in the Trust.  Each fiduciary warrants that
any directions given, information furnished, or action taken shall be in
accordance with the provisions of the Plan or the Trust, as the case may be,
authorizing or providing for such direction, information or action.
Furthermore, each fiduciary may rely upon any such direction, information or
action of another fiduciary as being proper under this Plan or the Trust, and is
not required under this Plan or the Trust to inquire into the propriety of any
such direction, information or action.  It is intended under this Plan and the
Trust that except as provided in Section 9.6, each fiduciary shall be
responsible for the proper exercise of its own powers, duties, responsibilities
and obligations under this Plan and the Trust and shall not be responsible for
any act or failure to act of another fiduciary.  No fiduciary guarantees the
Trust Fund in any manner against investment loss or depreciation in asset value.

Section 10. 1 Prohibition Against Attachment.
              ------------------------------ 

     (a)  None of the benefits payable hereunder shall be subject to the claims
of any creditor of any Participant or beneficiary nor shall the same be subject
to attachment, garnishment, or other legal or equitable process by any creditor
of the Participant or beneficiary, nor shall any Participant or beneficiary have
any right to assign, alienate, anticipate, commute, pledge, encumber or assign
any of such benefits.

     (b)  Exception to general prohibition against attachment for Qualified
          -----------------------------------------------------------------
Domestic Relations Orders
- -------------------------

          (1) General rule.  The restrictions of subsection (a) of this Section
              -------                                                          
     10. 1 will not be violated by either (A) the creation, assignment or
     regulation of a right to payments from this Plan by reason of a Qualified
     Domestic Relations order or (B) the making of such payments.

          (2) Definition of qualified Domestic Relations Order.  For purposes of
              ------------------------------------------                        
     this subsection (c), the term "Qualified Domestic Relations Order" means
     any judgment, decree or order (including approval of a property settlement
     agreement), made pursuant to a State domestic relations law (including a
     community property law), which relates to the provision of child support,
     alimony payments or marital property rights to a spouse, former spouse,
     child or other dependent of a Participant (an "Alternate Payee") and which:

              (A) creates or recognizes the right of an Alternate Payee to, or
          assigns to any Alternate Payee the right to, receive all or a portion
          of the benefits payable with respect to a Participant under this Plan;

              (B) clearly specifies (i) the name and last known mailing address
          (if any) of the Participant and the name and mailing address of each
          Alternate Payee covered by the order, (ii) the amount or percentage of
          the Participant's benefits the Plan is to pay to each Alternate Payee,
          or the manner in which such amount or percentage is to be determined,
          (iii) the number of payments or period to which such order applies,
          and (iv) that the order applies to this Plan;

              (C) does not require this Plan to provide any type or form of
          benefit, or any option, not otherwise provided under this Plan,
          unless, in the case of any payment before a Participant has separated
          from service, the order requires payment of benefits to an Alternate
          Payee (i) on or after the date the Participant 
<PAGE>
 
          attains (or would have attained) the earliest age on which he could
          elect to receive retirement benefits under the Plan, (ii) as if the
          Participant had retired on the date such payment is to begin under
          such order (but taking into account only the present value of the
          benefits actually accrued and not taking into account the present
          value of any employer subsidy for early retirement), and (iii) in any
          form in which such benefits may be paid under the Plan to the
          Participant (other than in the form of a joint and survivor annuity
          with respect to the Alternate Payee and his subsequent spouse);

               (D)    does not require this Plan to provide increased benefits
          (determined on the basis of actuarial equivalence); and

               (E) does not require the payment of benefits to an Alternate
          Payee which are required to be paid to another Alternate Payee under
          another order previously determined to be a Qualified Domestic
          Relations Order.

          (3)  Procedures for Qualified Domestic Relations Orders.  The 
               ---------------------------------------------------
     Committee shall develop and implement procedures (A) for determining
     whether an order the Plan receives is a "Qualified Domestic Relations
     Order" within the meaning of subsection (c) of this Section 10. 1, (B) for
     administering distributions under such orders, and (C) for holding amounts
     which would be payable under such orders pending the determination of an
     order's status as a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

     Section 10.2 Facility of Payment.  If any Participant or Beneficiary shall
                  -------------------                                          
be physically or mentally incapable of receiving or acknowledging receipt of any
payment due under the terms of the Plan, the Committee may direct the Trustee to
make any such payment to a legal representative or, if no legal representative
shall have been appointed, to any person or institution maintaining such
Participant or beneficiary, and the payment to such person or institution in
good faith shall constitute a valid and complete discharge for such payment.

     Section 10.3 Payment to Minor Beneficiary.  If the beneficiary of any
                  ----------------------------                            
Participant shall be a minor and no guardian shall have been appointed for him,
the Committee may direct the Trustee to retain any payment due under the Plan
for his benefit until he attains majority. Such amount, as the Committee
authorizes, may be held in cash, deposited in bank accounts, or invested or
reinvested in direct obligations of the United States, and the income thereon
may be accumulated and invested, or the income and principal may be expended and
applied directly for the maintenance, education and support of such minor
without the intervention of any guardian and without application to any court.

     Section 10.4 No Rights of Employment.  The Plan shall not confer upon any
                     --------------------                                     
Employee or Participant any right of employment, nor shall any provision of the
Plan interfere with the right of, an Employer to discharge any Employee.
<PAGE>
 
     Section 10.5 Payments Only From Trust Fund.  Except as otherwise required
                  -----------------------------                               
by law, no liability shall attach to any Employer for payment of any benefits or
claims hereunder and every Participant or beneficiary or person claiming under
them shall have recourse only to the Trust Fund for payment of any benefit
hereunder and the rights of such persons are hereby expressly limited
accordingly.

     Section 10.6 Applicable Law.  All provisions of the Plan, including
                  --------------                                        
definitions, shall be construed according to the laws of the State of Georgia,
except to the extent preempted by Federal law.

                  -------                                                     
convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or construction of the Plan.

     Section 10.8 No Access to Books and Records.  Nothing herein or in the
                  ------------------------------                           
Trust Agreement contained shall give any Participant or beneficiary or any other
person the right or privilege to examine or have access to the books or records
of any Employer or of the Committee or the Trustee; nor shall any such person
have any right, legal or equitable, against any Employer or against any
director, officer, employee, agent or representative thereof or against the
Trustee or the Committee, except as herein expressly provided or permitted by
law.

     Section 10.9 USERRA.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the
                  ------                                                    
contrary, contribution, benefits and service credit with respect to qualified
military service (as defined in Code Section 414(u)) will be provided in
accordance with Code Section 414(u).

          (a)  "Top-Heavy Plan" -- The Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan in any Plan
                ----------------                                            
     Year in which:

               (1) the Plan is a member of a Top-Heavy Group, if the Plan is
          described in paragraph 11.2(c)(1) or (2) below; or (2) the Plan is not
          a member of an Aggregation Group as described in paragraph 11.2(c)(1)
          or (2) below, and, as of the Determination Date, the Cumulative
          Accrued Benefit of the Plan for Key Employees exceeds 60 percent of
          the Cumulative Accrued Benefit of the Plan for all Participants.

          (b)  "Key Employee" means an Employee or former Employee who at any
                --------------

               (1) an officer of an Employer having annual compensation from the
          Employer of more than $45,000 (provided, however, that no more than
          the lesser of (A) 50 Employees or (B) the greater of three Employees
          or 10 percent of the Employees shall be treated as officers under this
          paragraph),

               (2)    one of the 10 Employees having annual compensation from an

          compensation from the Employer of more than $150,000.

For purposes of paragraph (2) hereof, if two Employees have the same interest in
an Employer, the Employee with the greater annual Compensation shall be treated
as having a larger interest.  For purposes of determining ownership in an
Employer (i) the constructive ownership rules of Code Section 318, as modified
by substituting "5 percent" for "50 percent" in subparagraph (a)(2)(C) thereof,
shall apply, but (ii) the rules of Code Sections 414(b), (c) and (in) shall not

          to include, provided that such inclusion does not prevent the group
          from meeting the requirements of Code- Sections 401(a)(4) and 410.

          (d)  "Top-Heavy Group" is an Aggregation Group for which, as of the
               -----------------                                             
     Determination Date, the Total Benefit for Key Employees exceeds 60 percent
     of the Total Benefit for all Participants.

          (e)  "Determination Date" is the last day of the first Plan Year and
               --------------------

     benefits attributable to deductible employee contributions, and (4) the
     account of any individual who has not received any compensation from an
     Employer (other than benefits under any Plan an Employer maintained) during
     the five year period ending on the Determination Date, shall not be taken
     into account.  A transfer from one plan of an Employer to any other such
     plan shall be considered neither a "distribution" nor a "rollover
     contribution" for purposes of this subsection, but a distribution from a
     terminated plan shall be considered a "distribution" for purposes of this
     subsection if such terminated plan, had it not been terminated, would have
     been described in paragraph 1 1. 1 (c) (1) or (2).

          (g)  "Cumulative Accrued Benefit" is, with respect to a defined 
               ----------------------------       
     benefit plan, the sum of the present values of all accrued benefits plus
     the sum of distributions made with respect to such benefits during the 
     five-year period ending on the Determination Date, provided that (1)
     rollover contributions and similar transfers an Employee initiated, (2) the
     accrued benefit of any Employee who was a Key Employee in a prior Plan Year
     but is no longer a Key Employee, and (3) any accrued benefits attributable
     to deductible employee contributions, and (4) the accrued benefit of any
     individual who has not received any compensation from an Employer (other
     than benefits under any plan an
<PAGE>
 
     Employer maintained) during the five-year period ending on the
     Determination Date, shall not be taken into account.  A transfer from one
     plan of an Employer to any other such plan shall be considered neither a
     distribution nor a rollover contribution for purposes of this subsection,
     but a distribution from a terminated plan shall be considered a
     distribution for purposes of this subsection if such terminated plan, had
     it not been terminated, would have been described in paragraph 1 1. 1
     (c)(1) or (2).

          (h) "Total Benefit" is the sum of the Account Aggregate of all plans
              ---------------                                                 
     within an Aggregation Group which are defined contribution plans, and the
     Cumulative Accrued Benefit of all plans within an Aggregation Group which
     are defined benefit plans.

          Solely for the purpose of determining if the Plan, or any other plan
     included in a required aggregation group of which this Plan is a part, is
     Top-Heavy, the accrued benefit of an Employee other than a Key Employee
     shall be determined under (a) the method, if any, that uniformly applies
     for accrual purposes under all plans an Employer maintains, or (b) if there
     is no such method, as if such benefit accrued not more rapidly than the
     slowest accrual rate permitted under the fractional accrual rule of Code
     Section 411(b)(1)(C).

          (i) "Testing Period" means a period of consecutive Years of Service
              --------                                                       
     (not exceeding five) during which the Participant had the greatest
     aggregate compensation from an Employer, except that such years shall not
     include (1) years beginning after the close of the last year in which the
     Plan was a Top-Heavy Plan.

     Section 11.2 Top-Heavy Vesting Schedule.  For each Plan Year for which the
                  --------------------------                                   
Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, the vesting schedule provided in this Section 11.2
(the "Top-Heavy Vesting Schedule") shall apply, and for each Plan Year
thereafter for which the Plan is not a Top-Heavy Plan, the vesting schedule
provided in Section 6.1 shall apply; provided, however, that any change in a
vesting schedule shall, with respect to each Participant, be subject to Section
6. 1. The Top-Heavy Vesting Schedule is as follows:
 
                                         NON-FORFEITABLE
YEARS OF SERVICE                              PERCENTAGE
- ---------------------                    ---------------
                      
  Less Than 2                                          0
  2 But Less Than 3                                   20
  3 But Less Than 4                                   40
  4 But Less Than 5                                   60
  5 or More                                          100

     Section 11.3 Top-Heavy Minimum Benefit.  For each Plan Year for which the
                  -------------------------                                   
Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, the accrued benefit    derived from Employer
contributions for each Participant who is not a Key Employee, when expressed as
a single life annuity (with no ancillary benefits) beginning at his normal
retirement age under the Plan, shall not be less than the product of (a)
<PAGE>
 
the Participant's average compensation during the Testing Period and (b) the
lesser of (1) two percent multiplied by the number of the Participant's Years of
Service (counting for this purpose only Years of Service with an Employer and
not UPS) or (2) 20 percent.  For purposes of this Section 11.3 a Year of Service
shall not be taken into account if the Plan was not a Top-Heavy Plan for any
Plan Year ending during such Year of Service.

     Section 11.4 Top-Heavy Adjustment to Section 415 Limitations.  For each
                  -----------------------------------------------           
Plan Year for which the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, the limit imposed by paragraph
5.7(a)(2) shall be applied by substituting "1.0" for "1.25" in each place
where it appears unless an Employer elects to make, and does make, additional
contributions sufficient to meet the requirements specified in subsection (b)
hereof.  Such election shall only be effective for those Plan Years in which:

          (a) the Plan would not be a Top-Heavy Plan as defined in subsection 1
     1. 1 (a) above, if "ninety percent" were substituted for "sixty percent" in
     paragraph 1 1. 1 (a) (2) and subsection 11.1(d), and

          (b)  with respect to each plan described in subsection 1 1. 1 (c)(1)
     or (2)

               (1) the minimum benefit described in Code Section 416(c)(2) (as
          modified by Code Section 416(h)(2)(A)(ii)(II)) is provided by each
          such plan which is a defined contribution plan; and

               (2) the minimum benefit described in Code Section 416(c)(1) (as
          modified by Code Section 416(h)(2)(A)(ii)(I)) is provided by each such
          plan which is a defined benefit plan.

     Section 11.5 Certain Benefits Disregarded.  The requirements of Section
                  ----------------------------                              
11.2 and Section 11.3, above, must be met without taking into account
contributions or benefits under Chapters 2 or 21 of the Code, Title II of the
Social Security Act, or any other federal or state law.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this indenture to be executed as of
the date first written above.

the Partnership relationship created hereby in or to such other ventures or
activities or to the income or proceeds derived therefrom, and the pursuit of
such ventures and activities by each Partner, even if competitive with the

                  TRANSFER OR ASSIGNMENT OF PARTNERSHIP SHARE

  5.1.  Right of First Refusal.
        ---------------------- 

          (a)  Subject to Sections 5.2 and 5.5, if any Partner (the "Offeror")
                          ------------     ---                                
     desires to sell or offer for sale or otherwise transfer from time to time
     all or any portion of the Offeror's interest in the Partnership (all or
     such portion is 

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
     hereinafter referred to as the "Offered Interest"), the Offeror shall first
     furnish to each other Partner (an "Offeree") a document setting forth the
     proposed purchase terms of the bona fide offer for purchase of the Offered
     Interest for a specific dollar amount (the "Offer"), which document shall
     include the name and address of the proposed purchaser of the Offered
     Interest. For a period of 30 days after the receipt by an Offeree of the
     description of the Offer, an Offeree shall have a right of first refusal to
     purchase the Offered Interest which such Offeree must exercise by notice in
     writing to the Offeror within such 30 day period.

          (b)  In the event that an Offeree shall have timely exercised its
     right of first refusal, the Offeror shall sell the Offered Interest to the
     Offeree, the Offeree shall pay the price specified in the Offer to the
     Offeror, and the parties shall otherwise consummate said transaction no
     later than 90 days after the date of delivery of the description of the
     Offer to the Offeree; provided that if more than one Offeree shall have
                           --------                                         
     timely exercised such right of first refusal, such sale, payment and
     consummation of said transaction shall be made with such Offerees on a
     basis which is consistent with their proportionate interests in the
     Partnership.

          (c)  If no Offeree timely exercises such right of first refusal with
     respect to the Offer, the Offeror shall then have a period of 60 days from
     the date on which such right of first refusal shall have expired to
     consummate the sale of all of the Offered Interest to the proposed
     purchaser identified in the document describing the Offer and on terms no
     more favorable to the purchaser than those terms offered to Offerees as set
     forth in the Offer.  If the sale is not consummated by the Offeror pursuant
     to the Offer within such 60 day period, the Offeror may not transfer or
     assign any interest in the Partnership owned by it except in accordance
     with the offer and notice provisions contained herein.

  Section 5.2.  Deferral of Transfers and Assignments.  Any proposed transfer or
                -------------------------------------                           
assignment of all or part of a Partner's interest in the Partnership, whether to
another Partner or to a third party, shall not be effective if as a result
thereof the Partnership would (in the opinion of counsel selected in good faith
by the non-transferring or non-assigning Partner with the largest Partnership
Share ("Transfer Counsel")) terminate for U.S. tax purposes.  If the prohibition
set forth in the immediately preceding sentence would be operative as a result
of the consequence specified in clause (a) upon a proposed transfer or
                                ----------                            
assignment of an interest in the Partnership from one Partner to another
Partner, the Partners hereby agree to negotiate in good faith to defer the
transfer of portions of the interest to be transferred so that the transfer of
no portion (i.e., neither the deferred portion nor the non-deferred portion)
            - -

this Agreement as if originally a party to this Agreement.

have no liability hereunder (including, but not limited to, any liability as a
surety) for any obligations accruing under or in connection with the Partnership
after such Partner shall have transferred or assigned its entire Partnership
interest in accordance with this Agreement.

                ----------------------------------                             
of all or part of a Partner's interest in the Partnership shall not be
effective, without the consent of all of the non-transferring or non-assigning
Partners.  Without limitation to the foregoing, a transferee or assignee of a
Partnership interest who does not receive such consent has no right to require
that any information or account of Partnership transactions be disclosed, to
inspect the Partnership's books, to vote on Partnership matters, to request a
meeting of the Partnership or to exercise any of the other rights of a Partner
other than to receive the share of cash and taxable income, gains, losses,
deductions or credits to which his assignor or transferor would otherwise be
entitled.

extent that, such liability shall be due to gross negligence, fraud or
dishonesty on the part of the Resident Representative or such agent.

  Section 8.3.  Post-Dissolution Matters.  Upon the occurrence of any of the
                ------------------------                                    
events specified in Section 8.2 above, the Partners (who shall act by a
                    -----------                                        
Partnership Majority) shall commence to wind up the affairs of the Partnership
and to liquidate the Investments.  The Partners and their successors and
assignees shall continue to share profits, losses, credits and basis during the
period of such liquidation in the same manner and proportion as immediately
before the dissolution.  Following the payment of all debts and liabilities of
the Partnership (including any amounts owing to a Partner pursuant to loans
described in Section 3.1(d) hereof) and all expenses of liquidation and subject
             --------------                                                    
to the right of a Partnership Majority to set up such cash reserves as and for
so long as it or they may deem reasonably necessary, the proceeds of the
liquidation and any other funds of the Partnership shall be distributed to the
Partners (after deducting from a Partner's distributive share of such proceeds
any sum such Partner owes the Partnership) in accordance with Section 3.2
                                                              -----------
hereof.

  Section 8.4.  Termination and Right to Distributions.  Upon the completion of
                --------------------------------------                         
the liquidation of the Partnership and the distribution of all Partnership
funds, the Partnership shall terminate and a Partnership Majority shall execute
any and all documents required in its or their judgment to effectuate the
dissolution and termination of the Partnership.  Each Partner shall look solely
to the assets of the Partnership for all distributions with respect to the
Partnership and its capital contribution thereto and its share of profits,
losses, credits and basis thereof.

  Section 8.5.  Specified Liquidation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
                ---------------------                                           
in this Agreement, (a) upon Liquidation of the Partnership, the proceeds of such
Liquidation shall be distributed in accordance with the positive Capital Account
balances of the Partners and, upon Liquidation of any Partner's interest in the
Partnership, the proceeds of such Liquidation shall be distributed in accordance
with the positive Capital Account balance of such Partner, in each case as
determined after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the
Partnership fiscal year during which such Liquidation occurs (other than those
adjustments made pursuant to this clause (a)), by the end of such fiscal year
                                  ----------                                 
(or, if later, within 90 days after the date of such Liquidation); and (b) the
Partners shall make such other adjustments to Capital Accounts and take such
other actions by the end of such fiscal year (or, if later, within 90 days after
the date of such Liquidation) which are necessary to cause the allocations of
profits, losses, credits and basis contained in this Agreement to have
"substantial economic effect" under Section 704(b) of the Code.  "Liquidation"
shall mean (i) when used with reference to the Partnership, the earlier of (1)
the date upon which the Partnership is terminated under Section 708(b)(1) of the
Code or (2) the date upon which the Partnership ceases to be a going concern,
and (ii) when used with reference to any Partner, the earlier of (x) the date
upon which there is a Liquidation of the Partnership or (y) the date upon which
such Partner's entire interest in the Partnership is terminated other than by
transfer, assignment or other disposition to a Person other than the
Partnership.

                ---------

breach of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach of
any kind or nature and no acceptance of payment or performance by a Partner or
the Partnership after any such breach shall be deemed to be a waiver of any
breach of this Agreement whether or not such Partner or the Partnership knows of
such breach at the time it 

                                       15
<PAGE>
 
accepts such payment or performance. No failure or delay on the part of a
Partner or the Partnership to exercise any right it may have shall prevent the
exercise thereof by such Partner or the Partnership, and no such failure or
delay shall operate as a waiver of any default.

  Section 9.4.  Integration.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
                -----------

this Agreement shall be subject to arbitration in Bermuda under the provisions
of the Bermuda International Arbitration and Cancellation Act of 1993 of
Bermuda.

Partnership, any action or proceeding against any other Partner or the

performance or declaratory relief) for or by reason of breach by such party of
this Agreement, notwithstanding the fact that any or all of the parties to such
