Sample lock box agreement.

This Agreement ("Agreement") is executed as of _________[Date], between _________, a _________ corporation ("Lender"), _________, a _________ limited partnership ("Borrower"), and _________, a _________("Manager"), with reference to the following facts:

A. Lender has made a loan to Borrower evidenced by that certain Note (the "Note") dated as of _________ in the principal amount of $_____(which may be increased by reason of the deferral of interest as provided for there) and secured by a Deed of Trust and Security Agreement with Fixture Filing _________[Date] (the "Deed of Trust"), executed by the Borrower, as grantor, to _________, as Trustee, for the benefit of the Lender, which Deed of Trust was recorded on _________ as Instrument No. _________ in the Official records of the Recorder of _________ County, California, and by other security. The Deed of Trust encumbers certain real property located in _________ County, California, more particularly described on Exhibit A thereto together with certain other personal property and other property as set forth therein (the "Mortgaged Property").

B. The parties now wish to enter into this agreement to set forth certain agreements of the parties regarding the collection and use of revenues received with respect to the Mortgaged Property.

In consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged here, the parties here agree as follows:

1. Manager. The Mortgaged Property shall be managed and leased by Manager, or such other person as may be approved in writing by Lender, pursuant to a management and leasing agreement approved in writing by Lender.

2. Deposits. All rents and other amounts (including without limitation security deposits, condemnation awards, and insurance proceeds) received with respect to the Mortgaged Property ("Receipts") shall be collected by Manager and any Receipts received by or currently held by Borrower shall immediately be paid to Manager. Manager shall deposit all Receipts in the Account, as defined below.

3. Assignment. Borrower, to secure its obligations under the Note and Deed of Trust (collectively, the "Secured Obligations"), does grant to Lender a security interest in, and assign and transfer to and pledge with Lender all right, title, and interest (whether legal, equitable or beneficial) of Borrower in and to the security described below (collectively, the "Account Collateral"):

Account No. _________(the "Account") with or payable by _________ Bank (the "Bank") at its office at _________, California _________ in the name of Borrower, including all sums now or at any time hereafter on deposit in the Account and all sums due or to become due on the Account (including interest), and any proceeds of and replacements of the Account.

4. Withdrawals.

(a). Before Default. Before the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined below), withdrawals or disbursements of funds in the Account shall be made only by Manager, as property manager for Borrower. Manager shall only use amounts withdrawn or disbursed from the Account as follows: (i) to pay operating and leasing expenses of the Mortgaged Property approved by Lender; (ii) the remainder, less an appropriate reserve approved by the Lender, shall on the first day of each month be paid to the Lender to the extent of payments due under the Note; and (iii) the remainder, less an appropriate reserve approved by Lender, shall on the first day of each calendar quarter be paid to Borrower. Borrower and Manager acknowledge and agree that Lender shall not approve as operating or leasing expenses the payment by Manager of any fees or other amounts to Borrower or any of its general partners or any affiliates or relatives of Borrower or any of its general partners and Borrower covenants and agrees not to request or accept any such payments.

(b). After Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may give notice of the Event of Default to Bank and thereafter withdrawals or disbursements from the account may be made only by Lender.

5. Financial Reporting.

(a). Reports. Borrower shall cause Manager to submit to Lender weekly reports on leasing and such other matters as Lender may request and monthly reports on the cash flow of the Mortgaged Property and on such other matters as Lender may request. Such monthly reports as to cash flow shall (i) be in such detail as Lender may request; and (ii) be accompanied by copies of invoices, checks, bank notices, and statements relating to the Account, and such other supporting documents as Lender shall request. Lender shall have the right to conduct an audit at Borrower's expense of the matters set forth in the monthly reports and Borrower and Manager shall cooperate with Lender in performing the audit and shall make available such of its books and records relating to the Mortgaged Property as Lender shall reasonably request.

(b). Meetings. At Lender's request, Manager and Borrower shall consult with Lender regarding leasing activities and financial issues affecting the Mortgaged Property from time to time. Lender shall not, however, have any right or authority to direct or control Manager or Borrower in the operation of the Mortgaged Property.

6. Power of Attorney. Borrower constitutes and irrevocably appoints Lender the true and lawful attorney of Borrower, with full power of substitution, to ask, demand, collect, receive, or receipt for any and all amounts which may be or become due and payable under the Account, to execute any and all checks, drafts, withdrawal statements, receipts, or other orders for the payment of money drawn on the Account, and to endorse the name of Borrower on all commercial paper given in payment or in part payment, and in its discretion to file any claim or take any other action or proceeding, either in its own name or in the name of Borrower or otherwise, which Lender may deem necessary or appropriate to protect and preserve the security interest of Lender under this Agreement.

7. Events of Default. As used in this Agreement, the term "Event of Default" shall mean any one or more of the following:

(a). An Event of Default as defined in the Deed of Trust.

(b). The failure by Borrower or Manager to keep or perform any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement.

(c). The levy of any attachment, execution, or other process against Borrower of all or any part of the Account Collateral.

8. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may at any time and from time to time and without demand or notice, withdraw and receive the Account Collateral up to the outstanding amount of the Secured Obligations, and apply the proceeds (including any interest) to the Secured Obligations. If there is a deficiency, Borrower covenants and agrees promptly to pay the same to Lender. Borrower acknowledges that the Account is a deposit account denominated in dollars and that a sale of it is unnecessary to establish or realize upon the value of it. Borrower agrees that the disposition of the Account Collateral as set forth above is a commercially reasonable disposition of the Account Collateral and waives any rights it may have to receive notice of any such withdrawals or disbursements or to require a sale of the Account at a public or private sale.

9. Waivers. Borrower waives any right to require Lender to (a) make or give any presentment, demands for performances, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, or notices of dishonor in connection with the Secured Obligations or the withdrawal of the Account Collateral, (b) proceed against or exhaust any other collateral, or (c) pursue any other remedy in Lender's power.

10. Termination. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until all Secured Obligations are indefeasibly satisfied in full.

11. Representation and Covenants. Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants that ownership of the Account Collateral is free and clear of all liens and encumbrances of any nature whatsoever and shall remain so during the term of this Agreement. Borrower will not attempt to withdraw the Account Collateral and will not attempt to amend or supplement the instructions to the Bank set forth in this Agreement and in the Notice of Security Interest without the prior written consent of Lender.

12. Acknowledgments. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Manager was selected by it, that Lender shall not be liable for any actions or inactions of Manager, and that Lender shall not be deemed to be a mortgagee in possession by reason of its rights set forth herein. Borrower also acknowledges and agrees that nothing herein shall be deemed to modify the terms or conditions of the Note or Deed of Trust or the other documents executed in connection therewith, including, without limitation, the provisions relating to the payment of interest and the disbursement of additional loan proceeds.

13. Further Assurances. Borrower shall execute and deliver such further assignments, notices, and other documents as Lender may reasonably require from time to time to better assure, assign, and transfer to Lender the rights now or hereafter intended to be granted to Lender under this Agreement for carrying out the intention of facilitating the performance of the terms of this Assignment.

14. Costs and Expenses. All costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred or paid by Lender in exercising any right, power, or remedy conferred by this Agreement or in the enforcement thereof, shall become a part of the Secured Obligations, shall be secured by the Account Collateral, and shall be paid to Lender by Borrower immediately upon demand.

15. Miscellaneous. The rights, powers, and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be in addition to all rights, powers, and remedies of Lender at law or under the Deed of Trust or any other agreement or instrument. Any forbearance or failure or delay by Lender in exercising any right, power, or remedy under this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such right, power, or remedy, and any single or partial exercise of any right, power, or remedy under this Agreement shall not preclude the further exercise of it. This Agreement and all representations and warranties, powers, and rights it contains are binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties here and their respective successors and assigns.

16. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

In witness, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the date first set forth above.
