2. The Loans.

2.1 Advance. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make Loans on the date hereof to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Lender's Lender Commitment. Each repayment of the Loans shall be deemed a repayment of each Lender's Loan equal to such Lender's Percentage of the amount so repaid. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint, and the preceding sentence will give rise to certain inappropriate results if special provisions are not made to accommodate the failure of a Lender to fund a Loan as and when required by this Agreement; therefore, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) no Lender shall be required to make Loans at any one time outstanding in excess of the Lender's Lender Commitment, and (B) if a Lender fails to make a Loan as and when required hereunder and Borrower subsequently makes a repayment on the Loans, such repayment shall be divided among the non-defaulting Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Percentages until each Lender has its Percentage of all of the outstanding Loans, and the balance of such repayment shall be divided among all of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages. The Loans shall be evidenced by the Notes substantially in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto.

(b) Not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, on the date specified for the borrowing hereunder, each Lender shall make available the amount of the Loan to be made by it on such date to the Agent at the Agent's principal office in Houston, Texas, in immediately available funds, for the account of the Borrower. Such amounts received by the Agent will be held in Agent's general ledger account. The amounts so received by the Agent shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be made available to the Borrower by wiring or otherwise transferring, in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 noon, Houston, Texas time, such amount to an account designated by the Borrower and maintained with JPMorgan in Houston, Texas or any other account or accounts which the Borrower may from time to time designate to the Agent by a written notice as the account or accounts to which borrowings hereunder are to be wired or otherwise transferred.

2.2 Payments. (a) Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower hereunder, under the Notes and under the other Credit Documents shall be made in immediately available funds to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at its principal office in Houston, Texas (or in the case of a successor Agent, at the principal office of such successor Agent in the United States), not later than 12:00 noon Houston, Texas time on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).

(b) The Borrower may, at the time of making each payment hereunder, under any Note or under any other Credit Document, specify to the Agent the Loans or other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder or thereunder to which such payment is to be applied, which must be pro rata on the basis of each Lender's Percentage (and in the event that it fails so to specify, such payment shall be applied to the Loans or, if no Loans are outstanding, to other amounts then due and payable, provided that if no Loans or other amounts are then due and payable or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Agent may apply such payment to the Obligations in such order as it may elect in its sole discretion, but subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation Section 2.3 hereof). Each payment received by the Agent hereunder, under any Note or under any other Credit Document for the account of a Lender shall be paid promptly to such Lender, in immediately available funds. If the Agent receives a payment for the account of a Lender prior to 12:00 noon Houston, Texas time, such payment must be delivered to the Lender on that same day and if it is not so delivered due to the fault of the Agent, the Agent shall pay to the Lender entitled to the payment the interest accrued on the amount of the payment pursuant to said Lender's Note and this Agreement from the date the Agent receives the payment to the date the Lender received the payment.

(c) If the due date of any payment hereunder or under any Note falls on a day which is not a Business Day or a Eurodollar Business Day, as the case may be, the due date for such payments shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day or Eurodollar Business Day, respectively, and interest shall be payable for any principal so extended for the period of such extension; provided, however, that with respect to Eurodollar Rate Borrowings if such extension would cause the Eurodollar Business Day of payment to fall in another calendar month, the payment shall be due on the Eurodollar Business Day next preceding the due date of the payment.

(d) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any outstanding Loan without premium or penalty, in whole or in part, except as provided in this Section or Section 3.5(a), (b) or (c). Any such prepayment shall be in the amount of at least $500,000.00. Each partial prepayment of the Notes shall be applied first to accrued interest on the Notes, the balance to the installments of principal thereof in inverse order of their maturities. Amounts prepaid on account of the Notes may not be reborrowed. The Borrower shall give the Agent at least one (1) Business Day's prior written notice of the Borrower's intent to make any payment of principal or interest under the Credit Documents not scheduled to be paid under the Credit Documents. Any such notification of payment shall be irrevocable after it is made by the Borrower. Upon receipt by the Agent of such notification of payment, it shall deliver same to the other Lenders.

2.3 Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing from the Lenders under Section 2.1(a) hereof shall be made ratably from the Lenders on the basis of their respective Percentages; and (b) each payment by the Borrower of principal or interest on the Loans or any other sums advanced by the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Documents, and of any other amount owed to the Lenders other than any sums designated by this Agreement as being owed to a particular Lender, shall be made to the Agent for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by the Lenders.

2.4 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Agent. Unless the Agent shall have been notified by a Lender or the Borrower (the "Payor") prior to the date on which such Lender is to make payment to the Agent of the proceeds of a Loan to be made by it hereunder or the Borrower is to make a payment to the Agent for the account of one or more of the Lenders, as the case may be (such payment being herein called the "Required Payment"), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Payor does not intend to make the Required Payment to the Agent, the Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient on such date and, if the Payor has not in fact made the Required Payment to the Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand, pay to the Agent the amount made available by the Agent together with interest thereon in respect of the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Agent until the date the Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Past Due Rate for such period if the recipient returning a Required Payment is the Borrower, or (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such period if the recipient returning a Required Payment is the Agent or a Lender.

2.5 Sharing of Payments, Etc. The Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of set-off, bankers' lien or counterclaim a Lender may otherwise have, each Lender shall be entitled, at its option, to offset balances held by it for the account of the Borrower at any of its offices, against any principal of or interest on any of such Lender's Loans to the Borrower hereunder, or other Obligations of the Borrower hereunder, which is not paid (regardless of whether such balances are then due to the Borrower), in which case it shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent thereof, provided that such Lender's failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof. If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan made by it under this Agreement or other Obligation then due to such Lender hereunder, through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker's lien, counterclaim or similar right, or otherwise, it shall promptly purchase from the other Lenders portions of the Loans made or other Obligations held by the other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any expenses which may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such benefit) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal and interest on the Obligations then due to each of them. To such end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.

3. Conditions.

3.1 Administrative. The obligation of any Lender to make its Loan is subject to the accuracy of all representations and warranties of the Borrower on the date of such Loan, to the performance by the Borrower of its obligations under the Credit Documents and to the satisfaction of the following further conditions: (a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (b) the making of the Loan shall not be prohibited by any Legal Requirement; and (c) the Borrower shall have paid all legal fees and expenses of the type described in Section 5.10 hereof through the date of such Loan.

3.2 Documentation. In addition to the matters described in Section 3.1 hereof, the obligation of the Lenders to make the Loan under this Agreement is subject to the receipt by the Lenders of each of the following, in Proper Form: (a) the Notes, executed by the Borrower; (b) a certificate executed by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of each Obligor dated as of the date hereof as to the resolutions of such Person authorizing the execution of the Credit Documents and as to the incumbency of the officers of such Person; (c) a certificate from the Secretary of State or other appropriate public official of the state of organization of each Obligor as to the continued existence and good standing of such Obligor; (d) a certificate from the appropriate public official of every state where the location of the Obligor's Property requires it to be qualified to do business as to the due qualification and good standing of such Obligor; (e) a legal opinion from independent counsel for the Obligors as to the matters set forth on Exhibit D acceptable to the Lenders; and (f) an Officer's Certificate in the form of Exhibit A; and to the further condition that, at the time of the initial Loan, all legal matters incident to the transactions herein contemplated shall be satisfactory to Locke Liddell & Sapp LLP, counsel for the Agent.

3.3 Options Available. The outstanding principal balance of the Notes shall bear interest at the Base Rate; provided, that (1) all past due amounts, both principal and accrued interest, shall bear interest at the Past Due Rate, and (2) subject to the provisions hereof, Borrower shall have the option of having all or any portion of the principal balance of the Notes from time to time outstanding bear interest at a Eurodollar Rate. The records of the Lenders with respect to Interest Options, Interest Periods and the amounts of Loans to which they are applicable shall be prima facie evidence thereof. Interest on the Loans shall be calculated at the Base Rate except where it is expressly provided pursuant to this Agreement that a Eurodollar Rate is to apply.

3.4 Designation and Conversion. Borrower shall have the right to designate or convert its Interest Options in accordance with the provisions hereof. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and subject to the provisions of Section 3.5, Borrower may elect to have a Eurodollar Rate apply or continue to apply to all or any portion of the principal balance of the Notes. Each change in Interest Options shall be a conversion of the rate of interest applicable to the specified portion of the Loans, but such conversion shall not change the respective outstanding principal balance of the Notes. The Interest Options shall be designated or converted in the manner provided below:

(a) Borrower shall give Agent a Request for Conversion. Each such written notice shall specify the amount of Loan which is the subject of the designation, if any; the amount of borrowings into which such borrowings are to be converted or for which an Interest Option is designated; the proposed date for the designation or conversion and the Interest Period, if any, selected by Borrower. The Request for Conversion shall be irrevocable and shall be given to Agent no later than the applicable Rate Designation Date. The Agent shall promptly deliver the Request for Conversion to the Lenders.

(b) No more than three (3) Eurodollar Rate Borrowings with three (3) Interest Periods shall be in effect at any time.

(d) Except as provided in Section 3.5 hereof, no Eurodollar Rate Borrowing shall be converted on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period.

(e) Unless a Request for Conversion to the contrary is received as provided in this Agreement, each Eurodollar Rate Borrowing will convert to a Base Rate Borrowing after the expiration of the Interest Period.

3.5 Special Provisions Applicable to Eurodollar Rate Borrowings.

(a) Options Unlawful. If the adoption of any applicable Legal Requirement or any change in any applicable Legal Requirement or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by the Lenders with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall at any time make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to permit the establishment of or to maintain any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, the commitment of the Lenders to establish or maintain such Eurodollar Rate Borrowing shall forthwith be suspended until such condition shall cease to exist and Borrower shall forthwith, upon demand by Agent to Borrower, (1) convert the Eurodollar Rate Borrowing with respect to which such demand was made to a Base Rate Borrowing; (2) pay all accrued and unpaid interest to date on the amount so converted; and (3) pay any amounts required to compensate the Lenders for any additional cost or expense which the Lenders may incur as a result of such adoption of or change in such Legal Requirement or in the interpretation or administration thereof and any Funding Loss which the Lenders may incur as a result of such conversion. If, when Agent so notifies Borrower, Borrower has given a Request for Conversion specifying a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing but the selected Interest Period has not yet begun, such Request for Conversion shall be deemed to be of no force and effect, as if never made, and the balance of the Loans specified in such Request for Conversion shall bear interest at the Base Rate until a different available Interest Option shall be designated in accordance herewith.

(b) Increased Costs. If the adoption of any applicable Legal Requirement or any change in any applicable Legal Requirement or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive of general applicability (whether or not having the force of law) of any central bank or Governmental Authority shall at any time as a result of any portion of the principal balance of the Notes being maintained on the basis of a Eurodollar Rate:

(1) subject any Lender (or make it apparent that any Lender is subject) to any Taxes, or any deduction or withholding for any Taxes, on or from any payment due under any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing or other amount due hereunder, other than income and franchise taxes of the United States and its political subdivisions; or

(2) change the basis of taxation of payments due from Borrower to any Lender under any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing (otherwise than by a change in the rate of taxation of the overall net income of a Lender); or

(3) impose, modify, increase or deem applicable any reserve requirement (excluding that portion of any reserve requirement included in the calculation of the applicable Eurodollar Rate), special deposit requirement or similar requirement (including, but not limited to, state law requirements and Regulation D) imposed, modified, increased or deemed applicable by any Governmental Authority against assets held by any Lender, or against deposits or accounts in or for the account of any Lender, or against loans made by any Lender, or against any other funds, obligations or other property owned or held by any Lender; or

(4) impose on any Lender any other condition regarding any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or of making, renewing or maintaining such Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, or reduce the amount of any sum received by any Lender, then, upon demand by Agent, Borrower shall pay to such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts which shall compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount. Agent will promptly notify Borrower in writing of any event which will entitle any Lender to additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph. A Lender's determination of the amount of any such increased cost, increased reserve requirement or reduced amount shall be prima facie evidence thereof. Borrower shall have the right, if it receives from Agent any notice referred to in this paragraph, upon three Business Days' notice to Agent, either (i) to repay in full (but not in part) any borrowing with respect to which such notice was given, together with any accrued interest thereon, or (ii) to convert the Eurodollar Rate Borrowing which is the subject of the notice to a Base Rate Borrowing; provided, that any such repayment or conversion shall be accompanied by payment of (x) the amount required to compensate a Lender for the increased cost or reduced amount referred to in the preceding paragraph; (y) all accrued and unpaid interest to date on the amount so repaid or converted, and (z) any Funding Loss which any Lender may incur as a result of such repayment or conversion.

(c) Inadequacy of Pricing and Rate Determination. If for any reason with respect to any Interest Period Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be prima facie evidence thereof) that:

(1) Agent is unable through its customary general practices to determine any applicable Eurodollar Rate, or

(2) by reason of circumstances affecting the applicable market generally, Agent is not being offered deposits in United States dollars in such market, for the applicable Interest Period and in an amount equal to the amount of any applicable Eurodollar Rate Borrowing requested by Borrower, or

(3) any applicable Eurodollar Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making and maintaining such Eurodollar Rate Borrowing hereunder for any proposed Interest Period,

then Agent shall give Borrower notice thereof and thereupon, (A) any Request for Conversion previously given by Borrower designating the applicable Eurodollar Rate Borrowing which has not commenced as of the date of such notice from Agent shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be of no force and effect, as if never given, and (B) until Agent shall notify Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice from Agent no longer exist, each Request for Conversion requesting the applicable Eurodollar Rate shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate Borrowing, and any applicable Eurodollar Rate Borrowing then outstanding shall be converted, without any notice to or from Borrower, upon the termination of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to it, to a Base Rate Borrowing.

(d) Funding Losses. Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender against and hold the Agent and each Lender harmless from any Funding Loss. This agreement shall survive the payment of the Notes. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection and setting forth the reasons for the Funding Loss submitted by Agent to Borrower shall be prima facie evidence thereof.

(e) Funding Offices; Adjustments Automatic. Any Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its obligation as to any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing by causing a branch or affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan and may transfer and carry such Loan at, to, or for the account of, any branch office or affiliate of such Lender; provided, that in such event for the purposes of this Agreement such Loan shall be deemed to have been made by such Lender and the obligation of Borrower to repay such Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender and shall be deemed held by it for the account of such branch or affiliate. Without notice to Borrower or any other person or entity, each rate required to be calculated or determined under this Agreement shall automatically fluctuate upward and downward in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(f) Funding Sources, Payment Obligations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of the Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder shall be made as if each Lender had actually funded and maintained each Eurodollar Rate Borrowing during each Interest Period through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to such Interest Period and bearing an interest rate equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Funding Losses, increased costs and other obligations relating to Eurodollar Rate Borrowings described in Section 3.5 of this Agreement will only be paid by the Borrower as and when actually incurred by the Lenders.

(g) Mitigation, Non-Discrimination. (i) Each Lender will notify the Borrower through the Agent of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement which will require or enable such Lender to take the actions described in Sections 3.5(a) or (b) of this Agreement as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such action, and (if so requested by the Borrower through the Agent) will designate a different lending office of such Lender for the applicable Eurodollar Rate Borrowing or will take such other action as the Borrower reasonably requests if such designation or action is consistent with the internal policy of such Lender and legal and regulatory restrictions, can be undertaken at no additional cost, will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such action and will not, in the sole opinion of such Lender, be disadvantageous to such Lender (provided that such Lender will have no obligation to designate a different lending office which is located in the United States of America).

(ii) None of the Lenders shall be able to pass through to the Borrower charges and costs under Sections 3.5 or 5.14 of this Agreement on a discriminating basis, such that such charges and costs are not also passed through by each Lender to other customers of such Lender similarly situated where such customer is subject to documents providing for such pass through.

(iii) If any Lender elects under Section 3.5 of this Agreement to suspend or terminate the availability of Eurodollar Rate Borrowings for any material period of time, and the event giving rise to such election is not generally applicable to all of the Lenders, the Borrower may within sixty (60) days after notification of such Lender's election, and so long as no Event of Default is then in existence, either (1) demand that such Lender, and upon such demand, such Lender shall promptly, assign its Lender Commitment to another financial institution subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.5 of this Agreement for a purchase price equal to the unpaid balance of principal, accrued interest, and expenses owing to such Lender pursuant to this Agreement, or (2) pay such Lender the unpaid balance of principal, accrued interest, and expenses owing to such Lender pursuant to this Agreement, whereupon, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement or have any rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Documents, and the Commitment shall immediately and permanently be reduced by an amount equal to the Lender Commitment of such Lender.

3.6 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

4. Representations and Warranties.

To induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans, the Borrower represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders as follows:

4.1 Organization. Each Obligor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization; has all power and authority to conduct its business as presently conducted; and is duly qualified to do business and in good standing in every state where the location of its Property requires it to be qualified to do business, unless the failure to be so qualified would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.2 Financial Statements. The financial statements delivered to the Agent fairly present, in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (provided, however, that the Quarterly Unaudited Financial Statements are subject to normal year-end adjustments and may contain condensed footnotes as permitted by regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission), the financial condition and the results of operations of the Borrower and of Parkway Properties, Inc. as at the dates and for the periods indicated. No Material Adverse Change has occurred since the dates of such financial statements. No Obligor is subject to any instrument or agreement which would materially prevent it from conducting its business as it is now conducted or as it is contemplated to be conducted.

4.3 Enforceable Obligations; Authorization. The Credit Documents are legal, valid and binding obligations of the Parties, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles. The execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Documents have all been duly authorized by all necessary action; are within the power and authority of the Parties; do not and will not contravene or violate any Legal Requirement or the Organizational Documents of the Parties; do not and will not result in the breach of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or instrument by which the Parties or any of their respective Property may be bound or affected; and do not and will not result in the creation of any Lien upon any Property of any of the Parties except as expressly contemplated therein. All necessary permits, registrations and consents for such making and performance have been obtained.

4.4 Other Debt. No Obligor is in default in the payment of any other Indebtedness or under any agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement or lease to which it is a party.

4.5 Litigation. There is no litigation or administrative proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against, or any outstanding judgment, order or decree affecting, the Obligors before or by any Governmental Authority which is not adequately covered by insurance. No Obligor is in default with respect to any judgment, order or decree of any Governmental Authority.

4.6 Taxes. Each Obligor has filed all tax returns required to have been filed and paid all taxes shown thereon to be due, except those for which extensions have been obtained, those which are being contested in good faith.

4.7 Regulation U. None of the proceeds of any Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or carrying directly or indirectly any margin stock or for any other purpose that would constitute this transaction a "purpose credit" within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

4.8 Subsidiaries. The Borrower has no Subsidiaries (excluding wholly-owned Subsidiaries which have executed a Guaranty) which individually or in the aggregate own more than ten percent (10%) in value of the Borrower's and the Subsidiaries' consolidated assets determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Each of the Borrower's Subsidiaries is a "qualified REIT subsidiary" under Section 856 of the Code.

4.9 Securities Act of 1933. Other than the Agent's efforts in syndicating the Loans (for which the Agent is responsible) neither the Borrower nor any agent acting for it has offered the Notes or any similar obligation of the Borrower for sale to or solicited any offers to buy the Notes or any similar obligation of the Borrower from any Person other than the Agent or any Lender, and neither the Borrower nor any agent acting for it will take any action which would subject the sale of the Note to the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

4.10 No Contractual or Corporate Restrictions. No Obligor is a party to, or bound by, any contract, agreement or charter or other corporate restriction materially and adversely affecting its business, Property, assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise.

4.11 Investment Company Act Not Applicable. The Borrower is not an "investment company", or a company "controlled" by an "investment company", within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The Agent (i) shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Document be a trustee for any Lender; (ii) shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability, execution, filing, registration, collectibility, recording, perfection, existence or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or any property covered thereby or for any failure by any Party or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder, and shall not have any duty to inquire into or pass upon any of the foregoing matters; (iii) shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder or any other Credit Document except to the extent requested by the Majority Lenders; (iv) SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY MISTAKE OF LAW OR FACT OR ANY ACTION TAKEN OR OMITTED TO BE TAKEN BY IT HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR INSTRUMENT REFERRED TO OR PROVIDED FOR HEREIN OR THEREIN OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, PURSUANT TO ITS OWN NEGLIGENCE, BUT NOT INCLUDING AND EXCEPT FOR THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF THE AGENT; (v) shall not be bound by or obliged to recognize any agreement among or between the Borrower, the Agent and any Lender other than this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, regardless of whether the Agent has knowledge of the existence of any such agreement or the terms and provisions thereof; (vi) shall not be charged with notice or knowledge of any fact or information not herein set out or provided to the Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other Credit Document; (vii) shall not be responsible for any delay, error, omission or default of any mail, telegraph, cable or wireless agency or operator, and (viii) shall not be responsible for the acts or edicts of any Governmental Authority. The Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

(b) Without the prior written consent of Agent and all of the Lenders, Agent shall not (i) modify or amend in any respect whatsoever the interest rate provisions of the Credit Documents, (ii) increase the Commitment, (iii) extend the Maturity Date, (iv) extend or reduce the due date for or the amount of the scheduled payments of principal or interest on the Loans, (v) amend the definition of Majority Lenders or any requirement that certain actions be taken only with the consent of a certain number of the Lenders, (vi) release any Guarantor or any collateral for the Loans, or (vii) modify or amend any provision of any Credit Document which by its terms requires the consent of all of the Lenders for amendment. From time to time upon Agent's request, each Lender shall execute and deliver such documents and instruments as may be reasonably necessary to enable Agent to effectively administer and service the Loan in its capacity as Agent and in the manner contemplated by the provisions of this Agreement. No amendment or agreement shall increase the Lender Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender.

(c) All information provided to the Agent under or pursuant to the Credit Documents, and all rights of the Agent to receive or request information, or to inspect information or Property, shall be by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders. If any Lender requests that it be able to receive or request such information, or make such inspections, in its own right rather than through the Agent, the Borrower will cooperate with the Agent and such Lender in order to obtain such information or make such inspection as such Lender may reasonably require.

(d) The Borrower shall be entitled to rely upon a written notice or a written response from the Agent as being pursuant to concurrence or consent of the Majority Lenders unless otherwise expressly stated in the Agent's notice or response.

The Agent shall not be required in any way to determine the identity or authority of any Person delivering or executing the same. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and thereunder in accordance with instructions of the Majority Lenders, and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders. If any order, writ, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting the rights, duties and obligations of the Agent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, then and in any of such events the Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to rely upon and comply with such order, writ, judgment or decree which it is advised by legal counsel of its own choosing is binding upon it under the terms of this Agreement, the relevant Credit Document or otherwise; and if the Agent complies with any such order, writ, judgment or decree, then it shall not be liable to any Lender or to any other Person by reason of such compliance even though such order, writ, judgment or decree may be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.

8.3 Defaults. The Agent shall not be deemed to have constructive knowledge of the occurrence of a Default (other than the non-payment of principal of or interest on Loans) unless it has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default". In the event that the Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, or whenever the Agent has actual knowledge of the occurrence of a Default, the Agent shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Lenders (and shall give each Lender prompt notice of each such non-payment). The Agent shall (subject to Section 8.7 hereof) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Majority Lenders and within its rights under the Credit Documents and at law or in equity, provided that, unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, permitted hereby with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders and within its rights under the Credit Documents in order to preserve, protect or enhance the collectibility of the Loans, at law or in equity. Provided, however, that if there is an occurrence of an Event of Default, then in no event or under any circumstances shall any of the actions described in Sections 8.1(b)(i) through (vii) of this Agreement be taken, without in each instance the written consent of Agent and all of the Lenders.

8.4 Rights as a Lender. With respect to the Commitment and the Loans made, Agent, in its capacity as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting in its agency capacity, and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Agent in its individual capacity. The Agent may (without having to account therefor to any other Lender) as a Lender, and to the same extent as any other Lender, accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, letter of credit, agency or other business with the Borrower (and any of its Affiliates) as if it were not acting as the Agent but solely as a Lender. The Agent may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower (in addition to the fees heretofore agreed to between the Borrower and the Agent) for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

8.5 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent, its officers, directors, agents and Affiliates, ratably in accordance with each Lender's respective Percentage, for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE AGENT) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, interest, penalties, reasonable attorneys' fees and amounts paid in settlement in accordance with the terms of this Section 8, but excluding, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE AGENT, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified, or from the Agent's default in the express obligations of the Agent to the Lenders provided for in this Agreement. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 8.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Obligations.

8.6 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it has received current financial information with respect to the Obligors and that it has, independently and without reliance on the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the Obligors and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents. The Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by any Party of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of the Borrower or any Party except as specifically required by the Credit Documents. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent hereunder or the other Credit Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower or any other Party (or any of their affiliates) which may come into the possession of the Agent. Each Lender assumes all risk of loss in connection with its Percentage in the Loans to the full extent of its Percentage therein. The Agent assumes all risk of loss in connection with its Percentage in the Loans to the full extent of its Percentage therein.

8.7 Failure to Act. Except for action expressly required of the Agent, as the case may be, hereunder, or under the other Credit Documents, the Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction by the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 8.5 hereof against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

8.8 Resignation of Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, the Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, (i) the Majority Lenders without the consent of the Borrower shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent so long as such successor Agent is also a Lender at the time of such appointment and (ii) the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent that is not a Lender at the time of such appointment so long as the Borrower (if no Event of Default is then in existence) consents to such appointment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, and with the consent of the Borrower which shall not be unreasonably withheld, appoint a successor Agent. Any successor Agent shall be an Eligible Institution. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Agent thereafter arising hereunder and under any other Credit Documents, but shall not be discharged from any liabilities for its actions as Agent prior to the date of discharge. Such successor Agent shall promptly specify by notice to the Borrower its principal office referred to in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 hereof. After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 8 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Agent.

8.9 No Partnership. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor any of the other Credit Documents nor any interest the Lenders, the Agent or any of them may now or hereafter have in all or any part of the Obligations shall create or be construed as creating a partnership, joint venture or other joint enterprise between the Lenders or among the Lenders and the Agent. The relationship between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Agent, on the other, is and shall be that of principals and agent only, and nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents shall be construed to constitute the Agent as trustee or other fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on the Agent any duty, responsibility or obligation other than those expressly provided for herein and therein.

9. Miscellaneous.

9.1 No Waiver, Amendments. No waiver of any Default shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other Default. No failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right or power under any Credit Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power preclude any further or other exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. Except as may be prohibited by Section 8.1 hereof, no amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of any Credit Document shall be effective unless the same is in writing and signed by the Borrower and the Majority Lenders. No notice to or demand on the Borrower or any other Person shall entitle the Borrower or any other Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

9.2 Notices. All notices under the Credit Documents shall be in writing and either (i) delivered against receipt therefor, or (ii) mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, in each case addressed as set forth herein, or to such other address as a party may designate. Notices shall be deemed to have been given (whether actually received or not) when delivered (or, if mailed, on the next Business Day). Provided, however, that as between the Agent and the Lenders and among the Lenders, notice may be given by telecopy or facsimile effective upon the earlier of actual receipt or confirmation of receipt by telephone.

9.3 Venue. HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS SHALL BE A PROPER PLACE OF VENUE TO ENFORCE PAYMENT OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS, UNLESS THE AGENT SHALL GIVE ITS PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT TO A DIFFERENT VENUE. THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS IN THE STATE OF TEXAS AND AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE UPON IT IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF ANY OF THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS BY SERVICE OF PROCESS AS PROVIDED BY TEXAS LAW. THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS IN THE DISTRICT COURTS OF HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS, OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS, HOUSTON DIVISION, AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIMS THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. THE BORROWER (A) AGREES TO DESIGNATE AND MAINTAIN AN AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE STATE OF TEXAS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AND TO DELIVER TO THE AGENT EVIDENCE THEREOF AND (B) IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY NOTICE GIVEN AS PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE AGENT OR THE LENDERS TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE BORROWER IN ANY JURISDICTION OR TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS SHALL BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN THE DISTRICT COURTS OF HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS, OR THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS, HOUSTON DIVISION.

9.4 Choice of Law. THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS HAVE BEEN NEGOTIATED, EXECUTED AND DELIVERED IN THE STATE OF TEXAS AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, INCLUDING ALL APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW, FROM TIME TO TIME IN FORCE IN THE STATE OF TEXAS.

9.5 Survival; Parties Bound; Successors and Assigns. (a) All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of the Credit Documents, shall not be affected by any investigation made by any Person, and shall bind the Borrower and its successors, trustees, receivers and assigns and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Agent and the Lenders; provided, however, that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent and all of the Lenders, and any such assignment or transfer without such consent shall be null and void.

(b) Subject to Sections 9.5(d) and (e) of this Agreement, a Lender may assign all or part of its Lender Commitment to an Eligible Assignee so long as such assignment shall (1) include the voting rights and all other rights and obligations attributable thereto, (2) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, require the written consent of the Borrower (so long as no Event of Default is then in existence) and the Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, (3) be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000.00 if assigned to a Person not already a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, (4) not reduce the Lender's Lender Commitment to an amount less than $5,000,000.00 unless it is an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the Lender's Lender Commitment, and (5) include payment to the Agent by the Lender of a service fee for each assignment equal to $3,000.00.

(c) Subject to Section 9.5(d) and (e) of this Agreement, a Lender may sell participating interests in any of its Loans to an Eligible Assignee so long as such participation shall (1) limit the voting rights of the participant, if any, to the ability to vote for changes in the amount of the Commitment, the interest rate on the Loans, the requirements for Guaranties and for collateral, and the Maturity Date, and (2) require written notice to the Agent and the Borrower but not any consent of the Agent, the Borrower or any other Lender. In connection with any sale of a participating interest made in compliance with this Agreement, (i) the participating Lender shall continue to be liable for its Lender Commitment and its other obligations under the Credit Documents, (ii) the Agent, the Borrower and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with the participating Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under the Credit Documents, and (iii) the participant may not require the participating Lender to take or refrain from taking any action under the Credit Documents that is in conflict with the terms and provisions of the Credit Documents.

(d) A Lender may assign all or any part of its Loans or its Lender Commitment to an Affiliate of the Lender without written consent of the Agent or the Borrower.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Lender Commitment and Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, that any such assignment or pledge shall not relieve such Lender from its obligations under the Credit Documents.

(f) The term of this Agreement shall be until the final maturity of the Notes and the payment of all amounts due under the Credit Documents.

9.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several identical counterparts, and by the parties hereto on separate counterparts, and each counterpart, when so executed and delivered, shall constitute an original instrument, and all such separate counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

9.7 Usury Not Intended; Refund of Any Excess Payments. It is the intent of the parties in the execution and performance of this Agreement to contract in strict compliance with the usury laws of the State of Texas and the United States of America from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof, the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance or detention of money with interest at a rate in excess of the Ceiling Rate and that for purposes hereof "interest" shall include the aggregate of all charges which constitute interest under such laws that are contracted for, reserved, taken, charged or received under this Agreement. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific contingency, exceeds the Ceiling Rate, the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) "spread" the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Loans. The provisions of this paragraph shall control over all other provisions of the Credit Documents which may be in apparent conflict herewith.

9.8 Captions. The headings and captions appearing in the Credit Documents have been included solely for convenience and shall not be considered in construing the Credit Documents.

9.9 Severability. If any provision of any Credit Documents shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

9.10 Disclosures. Every reference in the Credit Documents to disclosures of the Borrower to the Agent and the Lenders in writing, to the extent that such references refer to disclosures at or prior to the execution of this Agreement, shall be deemed strictly to refer only to written disclosures delivered to the Agent and the Lenders in an orderly manner concurrently with the execution hereof.

9.11 Entire Agreement. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS TOGETHER CONSTITUTE A WRITTEN AGREEMENT AND REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date set forth above.
