PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
GENERAL
Efficiency Lodge, Inc., formerly known as Southern Acceptance Corporation
(the "Company"), was incorporated in 1962 as a Georgia corporation, and engaged
in the business of real estate sales and development in Georgia. Specifically,
the Company purchased or built and operated motels and apartments. In 1974, the
Company filed for bankruptcy under Chapter XI of the federal bankruptcy laws. It
emerged from bankruptcy in 1980 with a few remaining properties. After selling
most of its remaining operating properties in the early 1980s, the Company
continued to engage to a limited extent in the purchase and sale of real estate
in Georgia. In addition to earning commissions from such real estate sales, the
Company earned interest on its notes receivable, rental income from its rental
properties, and income from the purchase and sale of investment properties. The
principal executive offices of the Company are located at 5342 Old Floyd Road,
Mableton, Georgia 30126, and its telephone number at that address is (770)
819-0039.
On January 22, 1996, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger with Efficiency Lodge, Inc., a Georgia corporation ("ELI") pursuant to
which ELI would be merged into the Company, with the Company as the surviving
corporation assuming ELI's name (the "Merger"). The Merger was effective on
December 31, 1996. In the Merger, the ELI shareholders received approximately
1,102.6 shares of the common stock of the surviving corporation for each share
of ELI (approximately 95% of the surviving corporation). Shareholders of the
Company immediately prior to the Merger received one share of the common stock
of the surviving corporation for each one hundred shares of pre-Merger common
stock of the Company held by them, with any resulting fractional shares being
cashed out at $0.10 per pre-Merger share.
On August 5, 1999, the Company's Shareholders approved a 30 for 1 reverse
split of the Company's common stock (the "Reverse Split"). Pursuant to the
Reverse Split, fractional shares of common stock were converted to cash at the
rate of $10.00 per share of common stock out- standing prior to the Reverse
Split.
ELI was formed in January 1993 as the result of the consolidation of five
existing companies, each of which operated an extended-stay lodging facility.
ELI engaged in the business of developing and owning lodging facilities that
offer both temporary and long-term accommodations ("Efficiency Lodges" or
"Lodges"). The Company now owns and operates twelve Efficiency Lodges, which are
located in or near East Point, Douglasville, Atlanta, Dekalb County, Carrollton,
Cartersville, Forest Park, Kennesaw, Columbus, and Louisville, Georgia, and
Pensacola, Florida. The Lodges have an aggregate of 1,357 guest rooms. In
addition, the Company owns and operates rental properties consisting of 53
single family residences, four duplex residential properties, and one commercial
property in or near Atlanta, Georgia (the "Rental Properties"). In the following
description of the Company's business, activities and properties, ELI's
business, activities and properties, except as otherwise indicated, are
described as those of the Company.
Extended-stay lodges such as the Efficiency Lodges are designed to serve
guests who require lodging for a minimum of seven days in rooms designed to
include functional space and, in particular, fully-equipped cooking facilities.
The extended-stay lodging industry (which includes economy extended-stay motels)
is a relatively small but growing part of the lodging industry. Management of
the Company believes that the consumer demand for economy extended-stay lodges
is underserved and increasing. The economic, social and demographic changes in
the United States contributing to the demand for extended-stay lodging include,
among others, the restructuring of corporate America, the increased mobility of
the population of the United States, the increase in single- person households,
the travel requirements of a service economy and the increasingly strict credit
standards of many apartment operators. Unlike most types of rental property
which are generally subject to leases of six months or longer, extended-stay
lodges, including Efficiency Lodges, may raise or lower rents (i.e., room rates)
with much greater frequency based upon occupancy levels. Typical guests in
economy extended-stay properties include people on short-term work or training
assignments, individuals in the midst of relocation for business or personal
reasons,
-2-
<PAGE>
military and government personnel, recreational travelers, and persons who
cannot meet the credit standards of apartments.
The Company has acquired the Rental Properties in and near Atlanta,
Georgia. The Rental Properties are primarily residential buildings with one year
leases. Rents are paid monthly. The Company owns one commercial property which
has two tenants, both of which have one year leases.
OPERATIONS
The Company's operations manual guides on-site management of each Lodge,
which is managed by a Property Manager, who resides on site, and an Assistant
Manager. Managers are trained in all aspects of extended- stay lodge operations,
with particular emphasis placed on customer service. The managers are trained to
provide conscientious customer service, they are provided with incentives to
exercise the authority granted to them, and they are efficiently supervised
through management information systems and on-site audits by the Company's
management, which visits and inspects each Efficiency Lodge on a regular basis
to ensure that consistency and quality standards are being met. Managers and
staff receive bonuses based on both performance and occupancy.
Each Efficiency Lodge is computerized with a software package that handles
all on-site transactions and record keeping. The software provides on-site
management with a database of updated information such as available units, units
needing cleaning or repairs, room charges due, guest payment history, and
telephone volume. Operating results are compiled and reviewed regularly. The
Company's corporate office handles purchasing supplies and virtually all
payments of property expenses.
Each of the Efficiency Lodges collects data about each new guest, including
his or her occupation, permanent residence, length of stay and how they learned
about the Lodge. The Company uses this information in the preparation of
advertising and sales materials for each specific Efficiency Lodge. The Company
employs various marketing techniques, including billboard and print as well as
direct marketing to potential customer groups.
For 1999, the overall average occupancy rate for the Company's Lodges was
85%, the average weekly rental rate was $151.69 and the revenue per available
room was $128.66.
The Company operates its Rental Properties by leasing units to residential
occupants. The average occupancy rate is 98%. The average rental rate is $590.00
per month.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
The Company intends to (i) develop additional Lodges, (ii) purchase motels
for conversion to the Efficiency Lodge format or purchase existing economy
extended-stay motels that meet current Company acquisition criteria, and (iii)
realize increased lease revenues from growth in room revenues. The Company will
focus initially on development and acquisition opportunities available in the
Southeastern United States. The Company may build or acquire additional Lodges
by borrowing funds, exchanging capital stock, raising capital through the
issuance and sale of equity, or through its cash flow.
In considering opportunities for developing additional Lodges, the Company
gives strong consideration to demographic and traffic studies, and it reviews
the availability and pricing of suitable sites, the costs and risks of
developing, the availability of financing, as well as economic variables and any
other factors deemed relevant. This data is compared against site selection
criteria employed by the Company and compiled from the base of existing Lodges.
Each site must satisfy the two most important variables: a high daily automobile
traffic count and a significant amount of employment within a three-mile radius.
The Company may acquire additional economy extended-stay lodges and convert
them to Efficiency Lodges. In appropriate circumstances, the Company also may
acquire and convert conventional motels into Efficiency Lodges.
-3-
<PAGE>
The Company considers investments in existing properties, including
properties that would require complete renovation, which meet one or more of the
following criteria: (i) the facility is located in an area with relatively high
demand for rooms, a relatively low supply of extended-stay lodges, and barriers
to easy entry into the lodge business, such as a scarcity of suitable sites or
zoning restrictions; and (ii) the facility is in an attractive location that the
Company believes could benefit significantly by becoming an Efficiency Lodge.
COMPETITION
The lodging industry is highly competitive. Each Efficiency Lodge is
located in a developed area that includes motels and other lodges and in some
cases other economy extended-stay lodges. The Company does not believe that any
single competitor or small number of competitors is dominant in the markets in
which its Lodges are located. The number of competitive facilities in a
particular area has a material effect on occupancy and revenues of Lodges. The
Company seeks to compete based on the prices charged, the quality of the
facilities, and service to guests.
The Company competes for investment opportunities with entities which have
substantially greater financial resources than the Company and which as a
consequence may be in a position to accept more risk than the Company, including
risks with respect to the locations of facilities. Such competition may reduce
the number of suitable investment opportunities offered to the Company and
increase the bargaining power of property owners seeking to sell.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Under various federal, state and local laws and regulations, an owner or
operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of
certain hazardous, toxic or petroleum substances on such property. Such laws
often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew
of, or was responsible for, the presence of such substances. Furthermore, a
person that arranges for the disposal or transports for disposal or treatment a
hazardous, toxic, or petroleum substance to another property may be liable for
the costs of removal or remediation of substances released into the environment
at that property. The costs of remediation or removal of such substances may be
substantial, and the presence of such substances, or the failure to conduct
remediation promptly, may adversely affect the value of the real estate or the
owner's ability to sell the real estate or to borrow using the real estate as
collateral.
Phase I environmental audits have been obtained on all of the Company's
Lodges. The Phase I audits were intended to identify potential sources of
contamination for which the Lodges may be responsible and to assess the status
of environmental regulatory compliance. These audits included historical reviews
of the Lodges, reviews of certain public records, preliminary investigations of
the sites and surrounding properties, screening for the presence of asbestos,
PCB's, and underground storage tanks, and the preparation and issuance of a
written report. The Phase I assessments did not include invasive procedures,
such as soil sampling or ground water analysis.
The Phase I audit reports have not revealed any environmental liability
that the Company believes would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, assets, or results of operations, nor is the Company aware of any such
liability. Nevertheless, it is possible that these reports do not reveal all
environmental liabilities or that there are material environmental liabilities
of which the Company is unaware.
The Company believes that the Lodges and the Rental Properties are in
compliance in all material respects with all federal, state, and local
ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances and other
environmental matters. The Company has not been notified by any governmental
authority of any material noncompliance, liability, or claim relating to
hazardous or toxic substances or other environmental issues in connection with
any of its present or former properties.
-4-
<PAGE>
GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION
A number of states regulate the licensing of lodging facilities by
requiring registration, disclosure statements, and compliance with specific
standards of conduct. The Company believes that each of its facilities has the
necessary permits and approvals to operate the respective businesses, and the
Company intends to obtain such permits and approvals for its new facilities. The
Company is also subject to laws governing its relationship with employees,
including minimum wage requirements, overtime, working conditions, and work
permit requirements. An increase in the minimum wage rate, employee benefit
costs, or other costs associated with employees could adversely affect the
Company. Both at the federal and state level, from time to time, there are
proposals under consideration to increase the minimum wage.
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"), all public
accommodations are required to meet certain federal requirements related to
access and use by disabled persons. Although the Company has attempted to
satisfy ADA requirements in the design of its facilities, if a material ADA
claim were successfully asserted against the Company, the claim could result in
a judicial order requiring the Company to take additional steps to comply with
some aspect of the ADA. Such additional steps can necessitate the expenditure of
substantial sums, a fine would be imposed, or the private litigants could be
awarded damages. These and other initiatives can adversely affect the Company as
well as the lodging industry in general.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 1999, the Company had no employees. Instead, the Company
leases approximately 65 full-time employees, including members of management,
pursuant to an agreement with Team Staff, Inc. Under the Company's agreement
with Team Staff, the Company selects its employees who are hired by Team Staff,
which provides administrative services and is responsible for the payment of all
employee wages, payroll taxes and employee benefits. The Company also
occasionally hires part-time employees through Team Staff. The Company has
elected to lease employees to minimize its administrative expenses and to take
advantage of economies of scale offered by Team Staff in providing workers'
compensation insurance, employee benefits and administrative services. The
Company is charged a fee for the employee and administrative services received.
The fee is based on the hourly rate of the employee and hours worked plus a
percentage of gross wages for payroll taxes, insurance and other benefits. The
lease was renewed on [June 1, 1999], and may be terminated by the Company on
[June 1, 2000]. The Company believes that its relationship with its leased
employees is good.
TRADEMARKS
The Company has registered the service mark "Efficiency Lodge" in the state
of Georgia and with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for hotel and
motel services. The registration extends until 2003 and is thereafter renewable
for ten-year periods.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.
The Company constructed all but four of the Company's Efficiency Lodges
using a standard design, with similar architectural styles and guest room floor
plans and similar construction materials. Five Efficiency Lodges were purchased
from other operators. Each Efficiency Lodge includes guest rooms, a manager's
apartment, an office and a guest laundry room. Each guest room contains a
combination living room and bedroom, a bathroom, a closet, a fully-equipped
kitchenette, and a table and chairs. Guest services, which are minimal in
comparison to motels or hotels, typically include limited front desk hours and
limited maid service, and extra charges for amenities, such as televisions.
Each Efficiency Lodge is an economy extended-stay facility with room rates
that are typically lower than those charged by most motels and hotels in its
market. Although daily rates are available, most guests at the Efficiency Lodges
choose to occupy rooms on a weekly basis, at rates which, as of December 31,
1999, ranged from $109 to $144 per week for single occupancy. The Efficiency
Lodges are able to charge lower rates (a) because of the elimination of certain
amenities found in higher-priced lodging facilities, such as restaurants,
cocktail lounges, meeting rooms, retail shops, pools and other large common
areas, which the Company has found to be unnecessary for the comfort and
enjoyment of its extended-stay guests, and (b) because they use economical
furniture, fixtures and equipment. The Company provides its extended-stay guests
with free access to satellite TV, convenience items for sale in the front
office, and an on-premises laundry facility.
The following lodges secure a note to one lender, with an outstanding

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
FISCAL YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998
Total assets on December 31, 1999 were $27,462,761, an increase of
$9,934,469 from the same date in 1998. This increase is primarily due to the net
of the following changes: property and equipment increased $10,536,659;
investments increased $333,844; cash decreased $684,129; and notes receivable
decreased $246,898. In March 1999, the Company acquired substantially all of the
assets of an existing lodge in Louisville, Georgia for $975,000. In August 1999,
the Company acquired 58 primarily residential rental properties in the Atlanta
area for $3,132,470. In December 1999, the Company acquired all of the assets of
two existing lodges in Pensacola, Florida for $6,450,000. Surplus cash was
invested in equity securities during the year thereby increasing investments to
$418,405 at December 31, 1999. Total liabilities on December 31, 1999 were
28,426,377 compared to $18,839,721 at December 31, 1998, an increase of
$9,586,656. Notes payable increased $9,119,411 at December 31, 1999 due to the
financing of the Louisville lodge, Rental Properties and the two Pensacola
lodges.
Revenue for the year ending December 31, 1999 was $6,848,997 compared to
$5,363,959 for the year ended December 31, 1998, an increase of $1,485,038, or
28%. This increase is primarily due to the Columbus Lodge and Town Center Lodge
having full years of operations in 1999. The Louisville lodge, Rental Properties
and Pensacola lodges generated an additional $275,645, $210,026 and $91,941 of
revenue, respectively, for the Company during 1999.
Operating expenses increased from $3,313,632 in 1998 to $4,138,853 in 1999,
an increase of $825,221. This increase can be attributed to the fact that
advertising expense increased $27,882, depreciation expense increased $275,447,
employee lease expense increased $101,071, management fees increased $81,486,
repairs and maintenance expenses increased $223,144, taxes and licenses
increased $136,122, and utilities increased $92,777 in 1999. Advertising
expenses increased due to additional expenses incurred by the Columbus Lodge and
the Louisville Lodge. Depreciation, employee lease expense, management fees,
taxes and licenses, and utilities increased due to the full year of operations
of the Columbus Lodge and the Town Center Lodge and due to expenses incurred by
the new properties acquired in 1999. Repairs and maintenance expenses increased
for all lodges, but 27% of the aggregate increase was incurred by the Rental
Properties.
Management fees are based on a percentage of gross revenue; therefore, the
revenue increase resulted in a management fee increase. Interest expense
increased from $1,387,426 in 1998 to $1,677,972 in 1999, an increase of $290,546
or 21%. This increase is due to the financing of the Louisville Lodge, the Home
Stay Lodges, and the Rental Properties, and due to a full year of interest
expense on the Columbus Lodge and the Town Center Lodge.
The Company purchased an existing motel in Louisville, Georgia on March 11,
1999 for a total purchase price of $975,000. The Company paid $475,000 in cash
and obtained a $500,000 loan from Georgia State Bank. On August 1, 1999, the
Company acquired, from a company owned by a stockholder, substantially all of
the assets of 58 rental properties for $3,132,470, assumed existing mortgages of
$2,883,000 and applied certain receivables from the stockholder in the amount of
$246,899 against the purchase price. The resulting credit was to additional
-8-
<PAGE>
paid-in capital for $2,571. On December 1, 1999, the Company acquired
substantially all of the assets of 2 existing lodges in Pensacola, Florida for
$6,450,000. The Company paid approximately $293,035 in cash, assumed a Note due
2004, accruing interest at 8.5% annually, in aggregate principal amount of
$5,420,000, and assumed a Promissory Note due 2004, accruing interest at New
York Prime + 1%, in aggregate principal amount of $797,040.83.
The Company entered into a note agreement for $2,750,000 in November 1999
to refinance the debt on the Rental Properties.
During 1999 the Company repurchased 734 shares of common stock from its'
shareholders. This stock is currently held by the Company as treasury stock.
8,333 shares of treasury stock are pledged to secure a loan.
Net income before taxes and extraordinary item increased from $680,093 in
1998 to $992,919 in 1999, an increase of $312,826. Net income was $231,812 in
1998 compared to $617,899 in 1999.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company historically has funded its operations primarily with cash flow
from operations. For the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company had a
decrease in cash of $681,129 compared to an increase in cash of $796,071 for the
year ended December 31, 1998. The Company had cash balances of $237,091 and
$921,220 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Idle cash of $333,844 was
invested in equity securities in 1999.
The Company anticipates building or acquiring additional Lodges in the
future and may seek to do so by incurring debt. The Company is currently having
a lodge constructed in Austell, Georgia, which it plans to open in the second
quarter of 2000.
The Company anticipates that the cash flow from operations will be
sufficient to meet its current and future working capital needs. Management
intends for financing to be utilized only for the acquisition or construction of
new Lodges and not for working capital. Management's anticipation of meeting
working capital needs through current operations is based on the past
performance of the Lodges, which have not historically required borrowings to
finance working capital needs. However, there can be no assurance in the future
that any new or existing facility will be able to fully fund its working capital
needs through operations.
There are no other commitments for financing. The Company may, however,
seek to increase its debt, issue equity securities or negotiate additional debt.
Any such commitment would be subject to such terms as approved by the Company's
Board of Directors.
Two risk factors which may affect costs related to operations and
development, and thus affect liquidity, are increases in interest rates and
inflation. Management of the Company recognizes these factors and intends to
manage to reduce these risks. However, there can be no assurance that present or
future performances will be in accordance with management's expectations.

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Efficiency Lodge, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Efficiency Lodge,
Inc. (a Georgia Corporation) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999, and the
related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders' equity and cash flows
for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1999. 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. 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Efficiency Lodge,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999, and the consolidated results of
their operations and their consolidated cash flows for each of the two years in
the period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1999 and 1998
NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of the accounting policies consistently applied in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements follows.
1. Principles of Consolidation
---------------------------
Efficiency Lodge, Inc. (the "Company") consolidates the accounts of all
majority owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and
balances have been eliminated.
2. Nature of Operations
--------------------
The Company owns and operates lodging facilities in Georgia and Florida,
which offer both temporary (minimum seven days) and long-term accommodations
which include fully-equipped cooking facilities and on-premises laundry
facilities. Customers include people on short-term work or training
assignments, recreational travelers, and people in the midst of relocation.
3. Inventory
---------
Inventory consists of personal care items and snack foods for resale and is
stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method.
4. Property and Equipment
----------------------
Property and equipment are recorded at cost including capitalized interest
cost incurred during the period of construction. Depreciation is provided for
in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations
over their estimated service lives using the straight-line method for
buildings and accelerated methods for furniture and equipment. Facilities are
evaluated annually and written down to fair value when management believes
that the undepreciated cost cannot be recovered through future cash flows.
5. Loan Fees
---------
Loan fees and other associated closing costs are recorded at cost.
Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the term of
the related loan.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1999 and 1998
NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
6. Investments
-----------
Investments consist primarily of equity securities, which are accounted for
as available for sale securities and are stated at fair value. Unrealized
gains and losses on these investments, net of the related income tax effect,
are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
7. Income Taxes
------------
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method.
Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
enacted tax rates applied to taxable income. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in
the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is
provided for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the
asset will not be realized.
8. Cash Equivalents
----------------
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly
liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be
cash equivalents.
9. Earnings Per Share
------------------
During 1999, the Company completed a 1 for 30 reverse stock split of its
common stock. Accordingly, all references to common stock within the
accompanying financial statements have been restated to reflect the effect of
the common stock split.
Earnings per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares
outstanding during 1999 and 1998 was 18,896 shares and 34,747 shares,
respectively.
There are no outstanding potentially dilutive securities. Accordingly,
earnings per common share assuming dilution is the same as basic earnings per
common share.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
-----------------------------------
The Company's financial instruments recorded on the balance sheet include
cash, investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt. Because of
their short maturities, the carrying amount of cash, investments, accounts
receivable and accounts payable approximates fair market value. The fair
value of the Company's long-term debt approximates carrying value based on
quoted market prices of similar issues or on the current rates offered to the
Company for debt of similar terms.
11. Use of Estimates
----------------
In preparing the Company's financial statements, management is required to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, the 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.

COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS OF MORTGAGOR
-------------------------------------
1.01 SECURED OBLIGATIONS. This instrument secures:
-------------------
(a) The payment and performance of the Mortgagor's indebtedness and
obligations tinder the Note, including all extensions, renewals, consolidations
and modifications of the Note.
(b) The payment and performance of the Mortgagor's obligations under
this Mortgage.
(c) The payment of all sums advanced or paid out by the Lender under
any provision of this Mortgage or to protect the security of this Mortgage.
(d) The payment of the principal and interest on all other or future
loans or advances made by the Lender, at Lender's option, to the Mortgagor (or
any successor in interest to the Mortgagor as the owner of all or any part of
tile Mortgaged Property), when the promissory note evidencing the loan or
advance specifically states that it is secured by the Mortgage ("Future
2
<PAGE>
Advances"), including all extensions, renewals and modifications of any Future
Advances, provided that such Future Advances are made within twenty (20) years
from the date of this Mortgage or within such lesser period of time as may be
hereafter provided by law as a prerequisite for the sufficiency of actual notice
or record notice of such optional Future Advances as against the rights of
creditors or subsequent purchasers for a valuable consideration, although there
may be no advance made at the time of the execution of this Mortgage and
although there may be no indebtedness outstanding at the time any Future Advance
is made. It is intended that the lien of this Mortgage shall be valid as to all
such indebtedness and Future Advances from the time this Mortgage is filed for
record. The total amount of indebtedness that may be secured by this Mortgage
may decrease or increase from time to time, provided, however, that the total
unpaid balance secured at any time shall not exceed a maximum principal amount
of $7,500,000.00 plus interest thereon, and any disbursements made by Lender for
the payment of taxes, levies or insurance on the property covered by this
Mortgage, together with interest thereon, plus reasonable attorney's fees and
court costs incurred in the collection of any or all of said sums of money. To
the extent that this Mortgage may secure more than one note, a default in the
payment of one note shall constitute a default in the payment of all other
notes. However, this provision as to Future Advances shall not be construed to
obligate Lender to make any additional advances or loans.
(e) The payment and performance of the Mortgagor's obligations under
the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents (as defined in the Note) and under
all other present and future agreements executed by the Mortgagor in favor of
the Lender and relating to the Loan.
1.02 WARRANTY OF TITLE. Mortgagor warrants that it is presently seized
-----------------
and possessed of an unencumbered, indefeasible fee simple estate in the
Property, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances and subject only
to the exceptions, if any, listed in Exhibit "B" attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference; that it has good right, full power and lawful
authority to sell, convey, hypothecate and encumber the Mortgaged Property; and
that it owns the personal property and fixtures subject to this Mortgage free
and clear of all liens, encumbrances, claims charges, conditional sales
contracts, chattel mortgages, security agreements, financing statements and
anything of a similar nature. Further, Mortgagor warrants that it shall preserve
such title to the Mortgaged Property and shall forever warrant and defend the
same unto Lender and its successors and assigns against the claims of all
persons and parties whomsoever.
1.03 ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS.
--------------------
(a) All of the existing and future rents, royalties, income, profits,
issues, revenues and accounts of or related to the Mortgaged Property that arise
from its use or occupancy are hereby absolutely and presently assigned to the
Lender. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under this Mortgage, Lender
may in its discretion at any time without notice to the Mortgagor collect the
rents, royalties, income, profits, issues, revenues and accounts itself or by an
agent or receiver. Mortgagor hereby authorizes and directs all lessees,
sublessees and occupants of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof to pay
any and all amounts due Mortgagor pursuant to their respective leases, subleases
and occupancy agreements to Lender or such nominee as Lender may designate in
writing upon receipt of written notice from Lender that an Event of Default
under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents has occurred, and all such
lessees, sublessees and occupants are expressly relieved of any and all duty,
liability or obligation to Mortgagor in respect of all payments so made. No
action taken by the Lender to collect any rents, royalties, income, profits
issues, revenues and accounts shall make the Lender a "mortgagee-in-possession"
of the Mortgaged Property. Possession by a court-appointed receiver shall not be
3
<PAGE>
considered possession by the Lender. All rents, royalties, income, profits,
issues, revenues and accounts collected by the Lender or a receiver shall be
applied to pay all expenses of collection (including without limitation
attorneys' fees), all costs of operation and management of the Mortgaged
Property, and all indebtedness and obligations secured by this Mortgage in
whatever order the Lender directs in its absolute discretion and without regard
to the adequacy of its security.
(b) Mortgagor shall not execute any lease, sublease or occupancy
agreement affecting any of the Mortgaged Property except with Lender's prior
written consent.
3
<PAGE>
(c) Without the prior written consent of the Lender, the Mortgagor
shall not accept prepayments of rent more than thirty (30) days in advance of
their due date under any leases, subleases or occupancy agreements affecting any
of the Mortgaged Property, nor modify, amend, extend or renew any such leases,
subleases or occupancy agreements, nor in any manner impair the Mortgagor's
interest in the rents, royalties, income, profits, issues, revenues and accounts
of the Mortgaged Property. The Mortgagor shall perform all covenants of the
lessor under any such leases, subleases or occupancy agreements. Upon the
Lender's request, the Mortgagor shall execute and deliver to Lender for
recordation an Assignment of Rents and Leases in form and substance acceptable
to Lender. Such Assignment of Rents and Leases, if and when recorded in the
public records of the county wherein the Property is situated, shall control as
to any irreconcilable conflict between the provisions of said assignment and the
provisions of this Section.
(d) If required by the Lender, any lease, sublease or occupancy
agreement affecting any of the Mortgaged Property must provide, in a manner
approved by the Lender, that the tenant or occupant shall recognize as its
lessor any person succeeding to the interest of the Mortgagor upon any
foreclosure of this Mortgage.
(e) Nothing herein shall render Lender liable under any existing or
future lease, sublease or occupancy agreement, regardless of the collection of
rents thereunder, for any of the covenants or agreements of Mortgagor under such
lease, sublease or occupancy agreement.
(f) The provisions of this Section 1.03 shall be construed and
interpreted consistently with the provisions of any separate Assignment of Rents
and Leases made by Mortgagor to Lender with respect to the Mortgaged Property,
to the end that all provisions of this Section 1.03 and any separate Assignment
shall be given full force and effect. In the event of an irreconcilable conflict
between any provision of this Section 1.03 and any provision of a separate
Assignment, the provision of the separate Assignment shall control if and when
such separate Assignment has been recorded in the public records of the county
wherein the Property is situated.
1.04 TRANSFER OF TITLE. It is specifically agreed and understood that
-----------------
Mortgagor shall not sell, contract to sell, grant an option to purchase,
transfer or otherwise convey all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, or any
interest therein, nor transfer the benefit of the Loan evidenced by the Note and
secured by the Mortgage or the interest rate specified in the Note to any person
acquiring title from the Mortgagor. Unless Lender gives its prior consent in
writing, the violation or attempted violation of any of the foregoing
prohibitions or restrictions shall be an Event of Default under this Mortgage
and the Note secured hereby. No cure period will apply to this default. Any
consent given by Lender hereunder shall pertain only to the proposed transfer of
title for which the consent was requested and shall not obligate Lender to
approve any further or future transfers.
1.05 CORPORATE STATUS, FINANCIAL AND MANAGEMENT COVENANTS.
----------------------------------------------------
(a) Mortgagor shall keep in effect its existence and rights as a
limited partnership under the laws of the State of Florida and shall not cause,
suffer or permit any changes in the management, ownership or control of
Mortgagor (whether by sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other
disposition of the stock of Mortgagor or by merger or consolidation by or with
Mortgagor) or any other circumstance or occurrence the effect of which is to
transfer all or any part of the management, ownership or control of Mortgagor or
its stockholders from the persons now holding the same to others.
(b) For all periods during which (i) title to the Mortgaged Property or
any part thereof shall be held by a corporation, limited liability company or

or association subject to corporate taxes or taxes similar to corporate taxes,
such corporation, limited liability company or association shall file returns
for such taxes with the proper authorities, bureaus or departments and it shall
pay, when due and payable and before interest or penalties are due thereon, all
taxes owing by it to the United States, to the state of its incorporation or
creation and to the State of Florida and any political subdivision thereof, and
shall produce to Lender receipts showing payment of any and all such taxes,
charges or assessments prior to the last dates upon which such taxes, charges or
assessments are payable without interest or penalty charges, and within ten (10)
days of receipt thereof, all settlements, notices of deficiency or over
assessment and any other notices pertaining to such corporation, limited
4

United States, such state of incorporation or creation, the State of Florida and
any political subdivision thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such
corporation, limited liability company or association may in good faith contest,
by proper legal proceedings, the validity or amount of any such tax or charge,
provided (1) an Event of Default hereunder has not occurred; (2) such
corporation, limited liability company or association provides Lender security
reasonably satisfactory to Lender assuring the payment of such contested tax or
charge and any additional charge, penalty or expense which may arise from or be
incurred as a result of such contest; (3) such contest operates to suspend
collection and is maintained and prosecuted with diligence; and (4) such
corporation, limited liability company or association shall pay such contested
tax or charge and all costs and penalties, if any, and shall deliver to Lender
evidence acceptable to Lender of such payment promptly if such contest is
terminated or discontinued adversely to such corporation, limited liability
company or association, and in any event at least thirty (30) days before the
date any of the Mortgaged Property may be sold or otherwise transferred because
of non-payment of the tax or charge.
(c) Mortgagor shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to Lender (1)

contribution, advance or loan) for the purpose of paying or discharging the
indebtedness of any other person or entity, or otherwise, except for the
endorsement of negotiable instruments in the ordinary course of business for
collection.

together with associated facilities and amenities, complies with all existing

regulations and concurrency regulations of all federal, state and local
governmental bodies and agencies having jurisdiction with respect to the

of Lender, Mortgagor shall not seek, make or consent to any change in any
existing development order or development of regional impact order or in the
zoning, comprehensive plan classification, future land use classification or

1.07 SECURITY AGREEMENT. This Mortgage constitutes a Security

Mortgaged Property which might otherwise be deemed "personal property".
Mortgagor shall execute, deliver, file and refile, any financing statements,
continuation statements and other security agreements Lender may require from
time to time to confirm the lien of this Mortgage with respect to such
property. Without limiting the foregoing, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints
Lender attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor to execute, deliver and file such
instruments for and on behalf of Mortgagor, provided that an Event of Default
exists hereunder. For purposes of the foregoing sentence only, an affidavit by
an officer of Lender shall be sufficient evidence of the existence of an Event
of Default by Mortgagor. Notwithstanding any release of any or all of that
property included in the Mortgaged Property which is deemed "real property",
any proceedings to foreclose this Mortgage or its satisfaction of record, the
terms hereof shall survive as a security agreement with respect to the security
interests created hereby and referred to above until the repayment or
satisfaction in full of the obligations of Mortgagor as are now or hereafter
evidenced by the Note.

relation to the presence, whether past, present or future, of any Hazardous
Substances on the Mortgaged Property.
(c) Without limiting the foregoing, this indemnification provision
specifically protects the Lender against any claim or action from activities

in part upon any environmental statute, rule, regulation or policy, including
but not limited to Chapters 403 and 376, Florida Statutes, the Florida

laws, whether now in existence or enacted in the future.
(d) Mortgagor's indemnification obligation hereunder shall be one of
strict liability and shall be enforceable without regard to any fault or
knowledge of Lender with respect to any act or omission or condition or event
which is the basis of the claim under such indemnification obligation.
Mortgagor's obligation under this Section shall not be limited to any extent by
the term of the Note or other obligations secured hereby, and such obligation
shall continue, survive and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding
payment in full or other satisfaction or release of said Note (and other
obligations secured hereby) and this Mortgage, or any foreclosure under this
Mortgage, or any delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. The provisions of

7
<PAGE>
subsurface strata) or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing,
distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of
Hazardous Substances.
(f) As used herein, "Hazardous Substance" means any substance or
material identified in Section 101(14) of CERCLA, 42 USC Section 9601(14), as
the same may be amended from time to time, or (ii) determined to be toxic, a
pollutant or contaminant, under federal, state or local statute, law, ordinance,

be amended from time to time, including but not limited to petroleum and
petroleum products as defined in Sec. 376.301(10), Florida Statutes, as same may
be amended from time to time.
(g) In the event that Lender has reasonable cause to believe that a
violation of an Environmental Law exists with respect to the Mortgaged Property
or in the event that a proceeding or investigation relating to the alleged
violation of an Environmental Law is then pending before any court, governmental
body or agency, Lender shall have the right to require Mortgagor, from time to
time, to perform (at Mortgagor's expense) an environmental audit and, if deemed
necessary by Lender, an environmental risk assessment, each of which must be
satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion, of the Mortgaged Property,
hazardous waste management practices and/or hazardous waste disposal sites used
by Mortgagor. Such audit and/or risk assessment must be by an environmental
consultant satisfactory to Lender. Should Mortgagor fail to perform such
environmental audit or risk assessment within 30 days of the Lender's written
request, Lender shall have the right but not the obligation to retain an
environmental consultant to perform such environmental audit or risk assessment.
All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in the exercise of such rights shall
bear interest at the default rate set forth in the Note and shall be secured by
this Mortgage and shall be payable by Mortgagor upon demand or charged to
Mortgagor's loan balance at the discretion of the Lender.
(h) Unless otherwise specifically set forth herein, Any breach of any
warranty, representation or agreement contained in this Section which Borrower
has not cured pursuant to Paragraph 7.1.3 of the Loan Agreement shall be an
Event of Default under this Mortgage and shall entitle Lender to exercise any
and all remedies provided in this Mortgage, or otherwise permitted by law.
1.09 NO SECONDARY FINANCING. Without the prior written consent of
----------------------
Lender, Mortgagor shall not create or cause or permit to exist any lien on, or
security interest in, the Mortgaged Property, including any furniture, fixtures,
appliances, equipment and other items of personal property now or hereafter
owned by Mortgagor which are intended to be or become part of the Mortgaged
Property. Mortgagor shall promptly discharge, at Mortgagor's cost and expense,
all liens, encumbrances and charges upon the Mortgaged Property, or any part
thereof or interest therein, except such liens, encumbrances and charges
specifically approved by Lender in writing. In any event, Mortgagor shall have
no right to permit the holder of any subordinate mortgage or other subordinate
lien, whether or not consented to by Lender, to terminate any lease of all or
any portion of the Mortgaged Property whether or not such lease is subordinate
(whether by law or the terms of such lease or a separate agreement) to the lien
of this Mortgage without first obtaining the prior written consent of Lender.
The holder of any subordinate mortgage or other subordinate lien shall have no
such right, whether by foreclosure of its mortgage or lien or otherwise, to
terminate any such lease, whether or not permitted to do so by Mortgagor or as a
matter of law and any such attempt to terminate any such lease shall be
ineffective and void.

thereof and is hereby authorized, at its option, to commence, appear in and
prosecute, in its own or the Mortgagor's name, any action or proceedings
relating to any condemnation. All such compensation, awards, damages, claims,
rights of action and proceeds and the right thereto are hereby assigned by the
Mortgagor to the Lender, which, after deducting therefrom all its expenses,
including attorney's fees, may release any monies so received by it without
affecting the lien of this Mortgage or may apply the same in such manner as the
Lender shall determine to the reduction of the sums secured hereby, and any
balance of such monies then remaining shall be paid to the Mortgagor. The
15

obsolete, disused or unnecessary for use in the operation of the Mortgaged
Property, upon replacing the same by, or substituting for the same, other
furniture, furnishings, equipment, tools, appliances, machinery, fixtures or
appurtenances not necessarily of the same character, but of at least equal value

sold or otherwise disposed of, which shall forthwith become, without further
action, subject to the lien of this Mortgage and Security Agreement.

Lender in connection therewith shall be secured hereby and shall be, without
demand, immediately repaid by the Mortgagors to the Lender with interest thereon
at the after-default rate set forth in the Note. The Lender shall be the sole

among other costs and expenses, be allowed and paid out of the proceeds of the
sale. In the event Lender exercises its option to foreclose the Mortgage in
equity, Lender may, at its option, foreclose this Mortgage subject to the rights
of any tenants of the Mortgaged Property and the failure to make any such
tenants parties defendants to any such foreclosure proceeding and to foreclose

any proceedings instituted by the Lender to collect the sums secured hereby or
any deficiency remaining unpaid after the foreclosure sale of the Mortgaged
Property.
3.10 WAIVER OF EXEMPTION. Mortgagor hereby waives all rights of
---------------------
exemption pertaining to real or personal property as to any indebtedness secured
by or that may be secured by this Mortgage, and Mortgagor waives the benefit of
any statute regulating, restricting or prohibiting the obtaining of a deficiency
judgment by Lender against Mortgagor or requiring that the value of the
Mortgaged Property be set off against any part of the indebtedness secured
hereby, except as might be provided under Florida law in the event of
foreclosure of this Mortgage.
3.11 NO WAIVER.
---------
(a) No delay or omission of the Lender or of any holder of the Note to
exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall
exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy nor be construed to be a
waiver of any such Event of Default or acquiescence therein; and every right,
power and remedy given by this Mortgage to the Lender may be exercised from time
to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Lender.
(b) No waiver of any Event of Default hereunder shall extend to or
shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or any other then existing Event of
Default or shall impair any rights, powers or remedies consequent thereon.
(c) If the Lender (i) grants forbearance or an extension of time for
the payment of any sums secured hereby; (ii) takes other or additional security
for the payment thereof, (iii) waives or does not exercise any right granted
herein or in the Note; (iv) releases any part of the Mortgaged Property from the
lien of the Mortgage or otherwise changes any of the terms of the Note or this
Mortgage; (v) consents to the filing of any map, plat or replat thereof, (vi)
consents to the granting of any easement thereon; or (vii) makes or consents to
any agreement subordinating the lien of this Mortgage or to any change in the
Note or this Mortgage, then any such act or omission shall not release,
discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability under the Note,
Mortgage or otherwise of the Mortgagor or any subsequent purchaser of the
Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or any maker, co-signer, endorser,
surety or guarantor of the Note; nor shall any such act or omission preclude the
Lender from exercising any right, power or privilege herein granted or intended
17
<PAGE>
to be granted in the event of any other Event of Default then made or of any
subsequent Event of Default; nor, except as otherwise expressly provided in an
instrument or instruments executed by the Lender, shall the lien of this
Mortgage be altered thereby. In the event of the sale or transfer by operation
of law or otherwise of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, the Lender,
without notice to any person or corporation is hereby authorized and empowered
to deal with any such vendee or transferee with reference to the Mortgaged
Property or the indebtedness secured hereby, or with reference to any of the
terms of conditions hereof, as fully and to the same extent as it might deal
with the original parties hereto and without in any way releasing or discharging
any of the liabilities or undertakings hereunder of Mortgagor or of any maker,
co-signer, endorser or guarantor of the Note.
3.12 DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDINGS - POSITION OF PARTIES RESTORED. In
------------------------------------------------------------
case the Lender shall have proceeded to enforce any right or remedy under this
Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise and such proceedings shall have been
determined adversely to the Lender, then and in every such case tile Mortgagor
and the Lender shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder,
and all rights, powers and remedies of the Lender shall continue as if no such
proceeding had been taken.

LOAN, COLLATERAL, AND LOAN ORIGINATION FEE
------------------------------------------
2.1 Loan. Borrower may borrow a principal amount not to exceed
----
$5,420,000.00, for the purpose of providing a source of funds to enable Borrower
to construct and complete the Project and to pay certain closing costs and
development expenses. Borrower agrees to accept the Loan and to use the proceeds
thereof only as provided herein. The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note, with
principal and interest being payable as provided in the Note and the Mortgage.
2.2 Security for the Loan. The obligations of Borrower to repay the
---------------------
principal and interest on the Loan shall be secured by:
2.2.1 The Mortgage;
2.2.2 the Assignment of Rents, Leases, and Profits relating to
the Project dated as of even date herewith;
2.2.3 the Assignment of Construction Documents, Contracts, Rights
and Intangibles, dated as of even date herewith;
2.2.4 the UCC Financing Statements filed with the Clerk of
Escambia County and the Secretary of State of the State of Florida;
2.2.5 the Guaranty of each Guarantor;
2.2.6 any other documents providing collateral and security
that Lender and Borrower may agree on.
2.3 Loan Origination Fee. In consideration of Lender making the Loan,
--------------------
in addition to interest and any and all other payments due Lender under the Note
and this Agreement, Borrower has paid to Lender a nonrefundable loan origination
fee (the "Fee") in an amount equal to .5% of the principal amount of the Loan;
i.e., $27,100.00. The parties agree that the Fee is not a charge for the use of
money but is a charge for the purchase of the right to secure a loan of money.
It is agreed that the Fee was a material inducement for Lender to continue to
make the Loan and to be ready, willing, and able to fund the Loan in accordance
with the terms hereof. The Fee shall be in addition to all other payments
(including, without limitation, principal and interest), due and payable
pursuant to the terms, provisions, and conditions of the Note and this
Agreement.
2.4 Voluntary Prepayments. Borrower may, without penalty, prepay the
----------------------
indebtedness evidenced by the Note in whole or in part.

<PAGE>
2.5 Interest Reserve. Lender shall allocate the sum of $0.00 of the
----------------
Loan to an interest reserve (the "Interest Reserve") to ensure payment by
Borrower of the interest due to Lender under the Loan. Lender shall disburse
from the Interest Reserve such amounts as may be necessary to pay interest on
the Loan on the first banking Business Day of each respective month that the
same becomes due under the terms of the Note, unless Borrower elects to pay such
interest in cash when due. It is understood that as long as there are sufficient
funds in the Interest Reserve, Borrower has the option of not paying such
interest in cash, but rather of having such interest paid from the Interest
Reserve and the amounts thus disbursed added to the outstanding amount of the
principal of the Loan. This option is given at Borrower's request and for the
benefit of Borrower and shall be deemed to have been exercised by Borrower
without the necessity of further documentation on each interest payment date
during the period that the Interest Reserve has sufficient funds. At any time
that interest payments on the Loan shall be due, Lender shall bill Borrower for
that interest and Borrower may either (a) pay the interest and request Lender to
reimburse Borrower for any such Interest so paid from, the Interest Reserve and
charge Borrower's account therefor, or (b) request Lender to advance any such
amount of interest due to itself from the Interest Reserve and simultaneously
charge Borrower's account therefor. Before any default in any of the terms,
covenants, and provisions of any of the documents evidencing and securing the
Loan, Lender shall, to the extent the Interest Reserve is sufficient, either (a)
advance any such amount of interest due to itself from the Interest Reserve and
simultaneously charge Borrower's account therefor, or (b) reimburse Borrower
from the Interest Reserve for any interest paid by Borrower, as may be requested
by Borrower under the terms hereof. The amount of the each payment out of the
Interest Reserve shall increase in respective amounts the then-outstanding
principal balance due on the Loan. When and if such Interest Reserve is
depleted, all monthly interest payments shall be paid by Borrower in cash. If at
the time the Final Advance under Paragraph 4.4 hereof is made there remain
undisbursed amounts in the Interest Reserve, such amounts shall be disbursed to
Borrower as part of the Final Advance.
2.6 (Omitted).

ARTICLE IV.
ADVANCES AND COMPUTATION AND PAYMENT OF INTEREST
------------------------------------------------
4.1 Purpose, Time, Place. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement,
--------------------
from time to time as work on the Project progresses, Lender shall make advances
on the Loan to Borrower, in aggregate principal amount not to exceed the Budget,
in the amounts specified in Paragraph 4.3 hereof for the purpose of paying
Construction Costs (the "Construction Loan Fund") and Non-construction Costs
incurred in connection with the Project (hereinafter an "Advance"); provided,
however, no more than the total certified Construction Costs approved by Lender
shall be disbursed at any time under the Loan, and Lender shall not be obligated
to make any Advance for work not completed before the Completion Date. Borrower
agrees that all Advances will be made by such means as Lender may from time to
time designate; however, Lender shall not be required to see to the proper
application of any such Advance and shall not incur any liability for any
failure of such proper application. Furthermore, following an Event of Default
and for as- long as such Event Of Default remains uncured (if cure thereof is
accepted by Lender), Lender reserves the right to disburse Advances directly to
contractors and subcontractors, and no further direction or authorization from
Borrower shall be necessary following an Event of Default to permit disbursement
directly to the contractors, subcontractors, and material suppliers, and all
disbursements so made shall satisfy pro tanto the obligations of Lender
hereunder. As a condition precedent to the initial Advance, Borrower shall
furnish to Lender a complete construction schedule and a current trade cost
breakdown of the entire Project, itemized as to trade items, trade descriptions,
and correct lists of all subcontractors and suppliers employed or to be employed
in connection with the construction of the Improvements.
Lender shall make Advances for materials that are stored on the
Premises but not affixed to or incorporated in the Improvements, if the
materials are securely stored and protected from and insured against theft,
vandalism, and the elements to Lender's reasonable satisfaction.
The Budget (also referred to as Schedule of Values) for the
Construction Costs is attached hereto as Exhibit B. The Non-Construction Costs
are described in Exhibit C. Notwithstanding anything else in this Loan Agreement
to the contrary, no disbursements will be made for Construction Costs or
Non-Construction Costs until Borrower has paid out of pocket (and provided
satisfactory receipts of payment to Lender) Three Hundred Twenty One Thousand
and No/100 Dollars ($321,000.00) in costs. The $321,000.00 shall not include any
payments for the appraisal, survey update, feasibility study, origination fee
and loan closing costs, all of which will be paid out of pocket by Borrower in
addition to the $321,000.00.
11
<PAGE>
4.2 Amount. Each Advance shall be based on a percentage of completion
of work in place and be in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the amount of
the Non-Construction Costs and Construction Costs incurred since the date of the
then immediately preceding Advance (or since the date of commencement of the
Project in case of the initial Advance) that is then due and payable; or (b) an
amount that does not exceed the budgeted amount for such work in accordance with
the Budget. Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) make an on-site
inspection and review of construction to verify the percentage of completion and
certify any Request for Advance. The initial Advance may defray certain of
Borrower's costs incurred in improving and developing the Premises and marketing
the Project before the date of this Agreement; however, none of the foregoing
costs and expenditures shall have the effect of diluting Borrower's equity in
the Project and none shall exceed the budgeted amount for such items in
accordance with the Budget. Lender may deduct from any Advance the amount of any
retainages, initial fees, expenses, and deposits in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.

from responsible parties, or estimates and other information reasonably
satisfactory to Lender, for the work not so covered, to enable Lender to
ascertain the total estimated cost of all work done and to be done; (b)

which Borrower claims title to any materials, fixtures, or articles used in the
construction of the Improvements; (c) a list of all unpaid bills for labor and

Lender's prior written approval, but copies thereof shall be promptly provided
to Lender and Inspecting Architect); (b) in accordance with existing zoning

defend any action or proceedings purporting to affect the Premises or its
furnishings or equipment or the rights or duties of the parties hereunder or the
payment of any of the Loan proceeds and, in connection therewith, to pay all
necessary expenses, including reasonable attorneys' and legal assistants' fees,
and any such sums paid or expended by Lender, plus interest thereon at the rate
27
<PAGE>
applicable to Advances hereunder (as specified in the Note), shall be repaid by
Borrower to Lender on demand and shall be secured by the Security Documents.
8.1.2. If Lender determines that any work or materials are not in
material conformity with the Plans or ordinances, statutes, permits, and
regulations, and Lender's security is placed in jeopardy thereby, Lender may
stop the work and other replacement or correction regardless of whether such
work or materials have theretofore been incorporated into the Improvements.
8.1.3. For the purpose of exercising the rights granted by this
Paragraph 8.1, Borrower irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lender its true and
lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to execute,
acknowledge, and deliver any instruments and to do and perform any acts in the
name and on behalf of Borrower.
8.1.4. Any notices under this paragraph shall specify the
reason Lender is taking any of the acts and actions authorized under this
paragraph.
8.2. Lender's Rights Optional. Whenever in this Agreement Lender is
--------------------------
given the right to take any action or execute any instrument, Lender shall not
incur any liability for failure to exercise such right or for any delay in so
exercising such right.
8.3. No Representations by Lender. Lender has no obligation in
-------------------------------
connection with the Premises, except to advance the proceeds of the Loan. Lender
shall not be responsible for the performance, nonperformance, or delay in
performance of any contractor, subcontractor, or supplier of materials, or for
the quality of workmanship or materials, or for the failure to construct,
complete, protect, or insure the Improvements, or for the payment of any cost or
expense incurred in connection therewith, or for the performance or
nonperformance or delay in performance of any obligation of Borrower. Any
inspection by Lender, or the approval of any plans, contracts, or other
activities in the nature thereof, shall be only for the sole and separate
benefit of Lender and for the purpose of protecting the security of Lender, and
the same shall in no way be construed as a representation that there is
compliance on the part of Borrower or that the construction of the Improvements
is free from faulty material or workmanship. The fact that Lender makes
inspections shall not relieve Borrower from its duties to independently
ascertain that the Improvements are being completed in accordance with the
Plans, and Borrower has no right to rely on any procedures taken by Lender.
8.4. Loan Expenses. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses in
--------------
connection with the Loan, including but not limited to brokers' fees and
commissions; lender's attorneys' and legal assistants' fees; documentary,

appraisals, abstracting, policies of title insurance and any endorsements
thereto, and license and permit fees. Borrower shall indemnify and hold Lender
harmless from and against any and all costs, losses, liability, and expense
arising in connection with any of the foregoing. Borrower authorizes Lender to
use proceeds of the Loan to satisfy any of the costs and expenses referred to
herein, and no further direction or authorization from Borrower shall be
necessary to warrant disbursements in payment of the foregoing.
28
<PAGE>
8.5. Further Assurances. Borrower agrees that after the execution and
------------------
delivery of this Agreement, it shall execute and deliver such further documents
and do such further acts and things as Lender may reasonably request in order to
fully effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.
8.6. Assignment. Lender may assign this Agreement and the other
----------
agreements contemplated hereby and all of its rights hereunder and thereunder,
and cause the assignee or any subsequent assignee to make any Advances not made
at the time of the assignment, and all the provisions of this Agreement shall
continue to apply to the Loan. Lender shall have the right to participate the
Loan with other lending institutions. Borrower shall not assign this Agreement
or the proceeds to be advanced hereunder. The rights of Borrower under this
Agreement are not assignable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower does
make an assignment of this Agreement or of its rights hereunder, Lender may, at
Lender's option, continue to make Advances hereunder to Borrower or Borrower's
successors in interest in the Premises, and all sums so advanced shall be deemed
Advances made in pursuance and not in modification hereof and shall be evidenced
and secured by the Note and the Mortgage.
8.7. Rights, Remedies, Powers. Each and every right, remedy, and power
-------------------------
granted to Lender hereunder shall be cumulative and in addition to any other
right, remedy, or power herein specifically granted, now or hereafter existing
in equity, at law, by virtue of statute, or otherwise, and may be exercised by
Lender from time to time concurrently or independently and as often and in such
order as Lender may deem expedient. Any failure or delay on the part of Lender
in exercising any such right, remedy, or power, or abandonment or discontinuance
of steps to enforce the same, shall not operate as a waiver thereof or affect
Lender's right thereafter to exercise the same, and any single or partial
exercise of any such right, remedy, or power shall not preclude any other or
future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, or power. If
Lender shall have proceeded to enforce any such right, remedy, or power and such
proceedings shall have been determined adversely to Lender, in each such event
Borrower and Lender shall be restored to their former positions and the rights,
remedies, and powers of Lender shall continue as if no such proceedings had been
taken.
8.8. Modification, Waiver, Consent. Any modification or waiver of any
-----------------------------
provision of this Agreement or any consent to any departure by Borrower
therefrom shall not be effective in any event unless the same is in writing and
signed by Lender, and then such modification, waiver, or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given. Any
notice to or demand on Borrower in any event not specifically required of Lender
hereunder shall not entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in
the same, similar, or other circumstances unless specifically required
hereunder. Any advance of Loan proceeds hereunder shall not constitute a waiver
of any of the conditions of Lender's obligations to make further advances nor,
in the event Borrower is unable to satisfy any such condition, shall any such
waiver have the effect of precluding Lender from thereafter declaring such
inability to be an Event of Default as provided in Paragraph 7.1.

covenants to which the Realty and Improvements are subject under this Agreement

term of the Loan. This paragraph shall survive the repayment of the Loan and
shall continue in full force and effect as long as the possibility of any

right to assign, transfer, participate, pledge, hypothecate, or encumber, or any

any of the collateral and security instruments and documents mentioned herein
without Borrower's consent. Borrower agrees to assist Lender in completing any
documents necessary to accomplish any such transfer.

satisfied, such consent, determination, opinion, approval, or satisfaction shall
not be unreasonably withheld.
8.31. Brokerage Commissions. Any brokerage commissions or finder's fees
---------------------
in connection with the Loan and this Agreement and all of the transactions
contemplated hereby shall be payable by Borrower and not by Lender, and Borrower
agrees to forever indemnify, exonerate, and hold Lender harmless against any and
