We maintain broad property and loss of income insurance on our consolidated real estate assets as well as those held in joint ventur earthquake and flood insurance, we also carry insurance for windstorm risks on our properties located in Florida. Even insured losses co revenue. Additionally, hurricane and storm damage in the state of Florida could exceed our windstorm coverage for our properties in that state o including lease and other contract claims, that generally are not insured. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occurs, we could the anticipated future revenue from the asset(s).

At December 31, 2008, our three largest tenants were Gap, Inc., Limited Brands, Inc., and Sterling, Inc., representing 3.2%, 2.4% and 2.1% o of the aggregate annualized minimum rents of our properties as of such date. Our financial position and ability to make distributions may be adve such tenant, or in the event any such tenant does not renew a number of its leases as they expire. Bankruptcy of our tenants or downturns in our tenants’ businesses may reduce our cash flow.

Since we derive almost all of our income from rental payments and other tenant charges, our cash available for distribution would be adver us, or if we were unable to lease vacant space in our properties on economically favorable terms. A tenant may seek the protection of the bankrup available for distribution. Furthermore, certain of our tenants, including anchor tenants, hold the right under their lease(s) to terminate their lease tenants close, if certain sales levels or profit margins are not achieved, or if an exclusive use provision is violated, which all could be triggered in th bankruptcies, particularly amongst anchor tenants, may make it more difficult for us to lease the remainder of the property or properties in which th leasing strategy.

If any Law or the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof or the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, whether or not having the force of law: (i) subjects the Bank to any tax, levy, impost, charge, fee, duty, deduction or withholding of any kind hereunder (other than any tax imposed or based upon the income of the Bank and payable to any Governmental Authority or taxing authority of the United States of America or any state thereof) or changes the basis of taxation of the Bank with respect to payments by the Borrower of principal, interest or other amounts due from the Borrower hereunder (other than any change which affects, and only to the extent that it affects, the taxation by the United States or any state thereof of the total net income of the Bank); or (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements against assets held by, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by the Bank; or (iii) imposes upon the Bank any other obligation or condition with respect to this Agreement, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Bank, reduce the income receivable by the Bank or impose any expenses upon the Bank with respect to the Loans by an amount which the Bank reasonably deems material, then and in any such case, the Bank shall from time to time notify the Borrower of the amount determined by the Bank (which determination, absent manifest error, shall be conclusive) to be reasonably necessary to compensate the Bank (on an after-tax basis) for such increase in cost, reduction in income, reduction in rate of return or additional expenses, setting forth the calculations therefor, and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Bank, as additional consideration hereunder, within ten (10) Business Days of the Borrower's receipt of such notice. 2.7 Capital Adequacy.

TERM NOTE

$40,000,000.00

October 8, 2008

THIS TERM NOTE (together with all extensions, renewals, amendments, substitutions and replacements hereto and hereof, the "Note") is executed and delivered under and pursuant to the terms of that certain Loan Agreement dated as of even date herewith (together with all extensions, renewals, amendments, substitutions and replacements thereto and thereof the "Agreement") by and between MORGANTOWN MALL ASSOCIATES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, an Ohio limited partnership (the "Borrower"), and FIRST COMMONWEALTH BANK (the "Bank"). FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Borrower hereby promises to pay to the order of the Bank, its successors and assigns, at the office of the Bank at Philadelphia and Sixth Streets, Indiana, Pennsylvania 15701 or such other location as the Bank shall designate from time to time, the principal amount of FORTY MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($40,000,000.00) or such lesser amount as may be advanced to or for the benefit of the Borrower hereunder and which is outstanding from time to time hereunder, together with interest accruing on the outstanding principal balance from the date hereof, as provided below. 1.

Interest Rates.

(a) For the term of this Note, interest shall be charged on the outstanding principal balance of this Note at a floating rate equal to the sum of (x) the one-month London Inter Bank Offered Rate or “LIBOR”, (determined as set forth below) plus (y) a margin equal to three hundred fifty (350) basis points, or three and fifty hundredths of one percent (3.50%)(the "Margin"); subject in each case to adjustment as set forth below. “LIBOR” shall mean, for each Reset Date, the interest rate per annum determined by the Bank by dividing (i) the rate which appears as USD-LIBOR-BBA on Dow Jones Page 3750 previously known as Telerate Page 3750 (or on such other substitute Dow Jones page that displays rates at which US dollar deposits are offered by leading banks in the London interbank deposit market), or the rate which is quoted by another source selected by the Bank which has been approved by the British Bankers’ Association as an authorized information vendor for the purpose of displaying rates at which US dollar deposits are offered by leading banks in the London interbank deposit market (an “Alternate Source”), at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two (2) Business Days prior to such Reset Date, as the one (1) month London interbank offered rate for U.S. Dollar deposits commencing on such Reset Date (or if there shall at any time, for any reason, no longer exist a Dow Jones Page 3750 previously known as Telerate Page 3750 (or any substitute page) or any Alternate Source, a comparable replacement rate determined by the Bank at such time (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error)), by (ii) a number equal to 1.00 minus the LIBOR Reserve Percentage.

“LIBOR Reserve Percentage” shall mean the maximum effective percentage in effect on such day as prescribed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor) for determining the reserve requirements (including, without limitation, supplemental, marginal and emergency reserve requirements) with respect to eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as “Eurocurrency liabilities”). “Reset Date” shall mean, initially October 14, 2008, and the first day of each month thereafter commencing on November 1, 2008. (b) Interest shall be calculated on a 360-day simple interest basis; that is by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Agreement) including failure to pay upon final maturity, the Bank may, pursuant to the Agreement, require that amounts outstanding under this Note bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate otherwise in effect hereunder plus five percent (5%) (the "Default Rate"). (d) Interest will continue to accrue on the outstanding unpaid principal balance of this Note, including at the Default Rate if it has been imposed, whether or not judgment is entered on this Note. (e) 2.

In no event will the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted by applicable law. Payments of Principal and Interest.

(a) Beginning on November 1, 2008 and continuing on the first (1st) day of each month thereafter up to and including October 1, 2010, consecutive monthly installments of principal shall be due and payable in the respective amounts and at the times set forth on Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part hereof. Accrued interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note shall be payable in arrears at the same times as the principal payments. (b) Beginning on November 1st, 2010 and continuing on the first (1st) day of each month thereafter, consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest shall be due and payable, each such installment amount being that amount of combined principal and interest which would, at the then applicable interest rate described in paragraph 1(a) above, amortize over a period of twenty-five (25) years, the then outstanding principal balance of this Note. The monthly payments hereunder shall be automatically adjusted upon each Reset Date based on any change in the Index using the then current outstanding principal balance and the number of months remaining in the twenty-five (25) year amortization period commencing on the Closing Date.

(b) On the Maturity Date, (including any revised Maturity Date in connection with any Extension Period pursuant to the terms of Section 2.5 of the Agreement) the then outstanding principal balance of the Obligations (as defined in the Agreement) of the Borrower, shall be due and payable in full. (d) If any payment of principal or interest is not made within ten (10) days following the due date for such payment, the Borrower will pay to the Bank immediately upon demand a late charge in an amount equal to the greater of $25.00 or five percent (5%) of the amount that has not been paid, not to exceed $27,000 in any one event. (e)

All payments of principal, interest and other amounts shall be made at the office of the Bank at its address set forth above.

(f) If any payment under this Note shall become due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday under the laws of the State where the Bank’s office indicated above is located, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding business day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Bank to charge the Borrower's deposit account at the Bank for any payment if not made when due. If Borrower is in default under this Note, payments received will be applied to charges, fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), accrued interest and principal in any order the Bank may choose, in its sole discretion. If Borrower is not in default under this Note, payments shall be applied to the purpose earmarked by Borrower, and if no purpose is earmarked by Borrower in writing, then first to accrued but unpaid interest, second to principal and then lastly to any charges, fees and expenses due Bank. (g) Both the Late Charge and the Default Rate are imposed as liquidated damages for the purpose of defraying the Bank’s expenses incident to the handling of delinquent payments, but are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the Bank’s exercise of any rights and remedies hereunder, under the other Loan Documents or under applicable law, and any fees and expenses of any agents or attorneys which the Bank may employ. In addition, the Default Rate reflects the increased credit risk to the Bank of carrying a loan that is in default. The Borrower agrees that the Late Charge and Default Rate are reasonable forecasts of just compensation for anticipated and actual harm incurred by the Bank, and that the actual harm incurred by the Bank cannot be estimated with certainty and without difficulty. 3. Prepayments. The principal owed hereunder may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time, and from time to time, subject to the payment of the prepayment premium described in the Agreement. All prepayments shall be applied as set forth in the Agreement. 4. Incorporation of Terms. This Note is the Note referred to in the Agreement. Reference is made to the Agreement for the provisions for the acceleration of the maturity hereof. All of the terms, conditions, covenants, representations and warranties of the Agreement are incorporated herein by reference as if the same were more fully set forth herein. All capitalized terms used herein which are not defined herein, but which are defined in the Agreement, shall have the meanings herein which are given to them in the Agreement.

5. Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in the Agreement, the principal hereof and accrued interest hereon may become forthwith due and payable, all as provided in the Agreement. 6. Certain Waivers. Demand, presentment, protest, notice of dishonor, notices of default or nonpayment and all other notices of any kind are hereby waived. 7. Successors and Assigns. Subject to the terms of the Agreement, this Note may be assigned by the Bank (or any other holder hereof), in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time. This Note shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Borrower and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Bank (and any holder hereof); provided that the Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of the Bank. 8. Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without regard to the principles thereof regarding conflict of laws, excepting applicable Federal Law. 9.

Power to Confess Judgment.

(a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers any attorney or the Prothonotary or Clerk of any Court in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, or elsewhere, to appear at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default for the Borrower as of any term, and with or without complaint filed, confess or enter judgment against the Borrower for the entire principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest, together with costs of suit, and an attorney's commission equal to the greater of (a) all reasonable legal fees and expenses actually incurred and to be incurred by the Bank for the collection or preservation of the obligations due under this Note or (b) one percent (1% ) of the unpaid principal balance and accrued interest, but in any event not less than One Thousand Dollars ($1,000), plus other costs incurred by the Bank under the Agreement; and for so doing, this Note or a copy of this Note verified by affidavit shall be sufficient warrant. The authority granted in this Note to confess judgment against the Borrower shall not be exhausted by any single exercise of that authority, but shall continue from time to time and at all times until payment in full of all amounts due under this Note. (b) The Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that after the entry of judgment by confession against the undersigned, the Bank (or any holder of the judgment) may without notice and a hearing foreclose upon, attach, garnish, levy or otherwise seize property of the undersigned in full or partial payment of the judgment. The Borrower, being fully aware of its rights to prior notice and a hearing on the validity of any claims or defenses that may be asserted against the Bank hereunder, before and/or after judgment is entered, knowingly, intelligently and willingly waives these rights and expressly agrees and consents to the entry of judgment by confessions on this Note against the Borrower and, without notice or hearing, the taking of such other actions as may be permitted under applicable law.

(c) The Borrower agrees that any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Note may be commenced in the Court of Common Pleas of Indiana County, Pennsylvania or in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, and the Borrower agrees that a summons and complaint commencing an action or proceeding in either of such courts shall be properly served and shall confer personal jurisdiction if served personally or by certified mail to the Borrower at its address set forth in the Agreement, or as otherwise provided under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Further, the Borrower hereby specifically consents to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Common Pleas of Indiana County, Pennsylvania and the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania and waives and hereby acknowledges that the Borrower is estopped from raising any objection based on forum non conveniens, any claim that either such court lacks proper venue or any objection that either such court lacks personal jurisdiction over the Borrower so as to prohibit either such court from adjudicating any issues raised in a complaint filed concerning this Note or payment to the Bank. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that this choice of forum provision shall not be deemed to preclude the enforcement of any judgment obtained in any forum or the taking of any action under this Note to enforce the same in any appropriate jurisdiction. 10. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Borrower and the Bank hereby irrevocably waives any and all right to trial by jury in any action or proceeding of any kind or nature in any court, arising out of, under or by reason of this Note or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Borrower and the Bank acknowledge that this waiver of jury trial has been specifically negotiated as a part of this Note and the other Loan Documents. The Borrower acknowledges that the Borrower has read and understood all the provisions of this Note, including the confession of judgment and waiver of jury trial provisions, and has been advised by counsel as necessary or appropriate.

(c) The Grantor shall promptly comply with and conform to (i) all provisions of each such insurance policy and (ii) all requirements of the insurers thereunder applicable to the Grantor or any of the Property or to the use, manner of use, occupancy, possession, operation, maintenance, alteration or repair of any of the Property, even if such compliance necessitates structural changes or improvements or results in interference with the use or enjoyment of any of the Property, provided however that the Grantor shall obtain the prior written consent of the Beneficiary (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) prior to making any material structural changes or improvements or interfering with the use or enjoyment of any of the Property. The Grantor shall not use or permit any party to use any of the Property in any manner which would permit the insurer to cancel any insurance policy. (d) The Grantor shall not adjust, collect or compromise any property claims under said policies without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary.

All insurance proceeds shall be payable to the Beneficiary and such proceeds may, during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the Beneficiary's sole option, be applied to any part of the Obligations and in any order (notwithstanding that such Obligations may not then be due and payable) or to the repair and restoration of any of the Property. The Beneficiary shall not be deemed to have elected such option until such option is elected specifically in writing. Until so elected, the Beneficiary shall not in any circumstances be deemed to have waived its right to make such election.

(e) In the event of any casualty (whether or not insured against) resulting in damage to any of the Property, unless an uncured Event of Default exists and the Beneficiary shall have elected to apply the insurance proceeds to the payment of the Obligations, the Grantor, whether or not such insurance proceeds shall be sufficient for the purpose, shall promptly commence and diligently continue to restore the Property as nearly as possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to such casualty. In that event, the Beneficiary shall have the right to hold any insurance proceeds and disburse them to the Grantor or for the account of the Grantor as the restoration progresses, as provided in Section 12 hereof. (f) In the event of loss, any separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing with that required to be maintained under this Section shall contain a non-contributory mortgagee clause in favor of and acceptable to the Beneficiary, and a duplicate original policy shall be delivered promptly to the Beneficiary; provided however that no such concurrent or contributing insurance shall be maintained without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary. 6. Installments for Insurance, Taxes and Other Charges. After the occurrence of an Event Default, the Grantor shall, if requested by the Beneficiary, pay to the Beneficiary monthly, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual premiums for the insurance policies referred to hereinabove and the annual Impositions and any other item which at any time may be or become a Lien upon the Property (the "Escrow Charges"). The amounts so paid shall be used in payment of the Escrow Charges so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred. No amount so paid to the Beneficiary shall be deemed to be trust funds, nor shall any sums paid bear interest. The Beneficiary shall have no obligation to pay any insurance premium or Imposition if at any time the funds being held by the Beneficiary for such premium or Imposition are insufficient to make such payments. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Beneficiary shall have the right, at its election, to apply any amount so held against the Obligations due and payable in such order as the Beneficiary may deem fit, and the Grantor hereby grants to the Beneficiary a Lien upon and security interest in such amounts for such purpose. 7. Right of Contest. The Grantor may in good faith contest, by proper legal proceedings, the validity of any Legal Requirement or the validity or amount of any Imposition, provided, (i) an Event of Default does not exist; (ii) the Grantor provides the Beneficiary with security satisfactory to the Beneficiary assuring compliance with or payment of the Imposition and any additional charge, interest, penalty, expense or other payment which may arise from or be incurred as a result of such contest; and (iii) such contest operates to suspend enforcement of compliance with or collection or enforcement of the Imposition and is maintained and prosecuted with diligence, except in the case of real estate tax assessment appeals, such contest only may be made if all real estate taxes are paid.

The Grantor shall not remove, demolish or alter the Property or any part thereof, nor commit or suffer waste with respect thereto, nor permit the Property to become deserted or abandoned. The Grantor shall permit the Beneficiary and its agents at any reasonable time, and from time to time, to enter upon and visit the Property for the purpose of inspecting and appraising the same.

Unless the Beneficiary otherwise gives its prior written consent, the Grantor shall not use or permit others to use the Property for other than as an office and retail complex and for other appurtenant and related uses. 10. Condemnation. If all or a material portion of the Property shall be damaged or taken through condemnation (which term when used in this Deed of Trust shall include any damage or taking by any Governmental Authority and any transfer by private sale in lieu thereof), either temporarily or permanently (collectively, a "Material Taking"), the Obligations secured hereby shall, at the option of the Beneficiary, become immediately due and payable. For purposes hereof, a "material portion" shall mean that portion of the Property which, based on a new Appraisal of the remaining Property after giving effect to such condemnation, would result in a Loan-to-Value Ratio of 80% or greater. The Grantor, immediately upon obtaining knowledge of the institution of any proceedings for the condemnation or taking by eminent domain of any of the Property, shall notify the Beneficiary of the pendency of such proceedings. The Beneficiary may participate in any such proceedings and the Grantor shall deliver to the Beneficiary all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Any award or compensation for property taken or for damage to property not taken other than a Material Taking, whether as a result of such proceedings or in lieu thereof, is hereby assigned to and shall be received and collected directly by the Beneficiary, and any award or compensation shall be applied to the repair and restoration of any of the Property or, at the Beneficiary's option, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to any part of the Obligations and in any order (notwithstanding that any of such Obligations may not then be due and payable). The Grantor shall promptly, whether or not such award or compensation shall be sufficient for the purpose, commence and diligently continue to restore the Property as nearly as possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to such damage. In that event, the Beneficiary shall have the right to hold the award or compensation and disburse it to the Grantor or for the account of the Grantor as the restoration progresses, as provided in Section 12 hereof. The Grantor agrees to execute such further assignment of any compensation, awards, damages, claims, rights of action, proceeds, and other payments, as the Beneficiary may require.

The interest or income, if any, received on all deposits or investments of any moneys in the Restoration Fund shall be added to the Restoration Fund.

Processed and formatted by SEC Watch - Visit SECWatch.com

(a) In the event of an Event of Default, the Beneficiary may, at its option and notwithstanding any contrary provisions in any of the other Loan Documents, without demand, notice or delay, do one or more of the following: (i) the Beneficiary may declare the entire unpaid principal balance of the Note together with all interest thereon and all other outstanding Obligations, to be due and payable immediately; (ii) the Beneficiary may (A) institute and maintain an action of mortgage foreclosure against the Property and the interests of the Grantor therein, (B) institute and maintain an action on the Note, and (C) take such other action at law or in equity for the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents as provided in the Loan Documents and as the law may allow, and in each such action the Beneficiary shall be entitled to all costs of suit and reasonable attorneys fees; (iii) the Beneficiary may, without releasing the Grantor from any obligation under any of the Loan Documents and without waiving any Event of Default: (A) collect any or all of the Rents, including any Rents past due and unpaid, (B) perform any obligation or exercise any right or remedy of the Grantor under any Lease, or (C) enforce any obligation of any tenant of any of the Property. The Beneficiary shall not be obligated to do any of the foregoing, even if the Beneficiary may have theretofore performed obligations or exercised remedies of the Grantor or enforced obligations of tenants. The Beneficiary may exercise any right under this subsection (iii) whether or not the Beneficiary shall have entered into possession of any of the Property, and nothing herein contained shall be construed as constituting the Beneficiary a "mortgagee in possession", unless the Beneficiary shall have entered into and shall continue to be in actual possession of the Property. The Grantor hereby authorizes and directs each and every present and future tenant of any of the Property to pay all Rents directly to the Beneficiary and to perform all other obligations of that tenant for the direct benefit of the Beneficiary, as if the Beneficiary were the landlord under the Lease with that tenant, immediately upon receipt of a demand by the Beneficiary to make such payment or perform such obligations. No tenant shall have any responsibility to ascertain whether such demand is permitted hereunder or whether an Event of Default shall have occurred; the Grantor hereby waives any right, claim or demand it may now or hereafter have against any such tenant by reason of such payment of Rents or performance of obligations to the Beneficiary; and any such payment or performance to the Beneficiary shall discharge the obligations of the tenant to make such payment or performance to the Grantor. The Grantor shall indemnify the Beneficiary and hold the Beneficiary harmless from and against any and all claims, liability, damage, cost and expense (including attorney's fees) which may be asserted against or incurred by the Beneficiary by reason of any alleged obligations to perform any provision of any Lease. After deduction of all costs and expenses incurred in the operation and management of the Property and in the collection of the Rents (including attorneys' fees, administration expenses, management fees and brokers' commissions), the Beneficiary may apply the Rents received by the Beneficiary to the payment of any or all of the following, in such order and amounts as the Beneficiary, in its sole discretion, may elect, whether or not the same be then due: Liens on any of the Property, Impositions, claims, insurance premiums, other carrying charges, invoices of persons who have supplied goods or services to or for the benefit of any of the Property, costs and expenses of maintenance, repair, restoration, alteration or improvement of any of the Property, or the Obligations. The Beneficiary may, in its sole discretion, determine the method by which, and extent to which, the Rents will be collected and obligations of tenants enforced; and the Beneficiary may waive or choose to perform or enforce any provision of any Lease. The Beneficiary shall not be accountable for any Rents or other sums it does not actually receive. The Grantor hereby appoints the Beneficiary as its attorneyin-fact effective upon an Event of Default to perform all acts which the Grantor is required or permitted to perform under any and all Leases; (iv) the Beneficiary may, without releasing the Grantor from any obligation under any of the Loan Documents and without waiving any Event of Default, enter upon and take possession of the Property or any portion thereof, with or without legal action and by force if necessary, or have a receiver appointed without proof of depreciation or inadequacy of the value of the Property or other security or proof of the insolvency of the Grantor. The Beneficiary or said receiver may manage and operate the Property; make, cancel, enforce or modify the Leases or any of them; obtain and evict tenants; establish or change the amount of any Rents; and perform any acts and advance any sums which the Beneficiary deems proper to protect the security of this Deed of Trust, all such sums to be payable on demand, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, from the date of such demand, and such sums and interest to be secured by this Deed of Trust; and (v) the Beneficiary may take possession of the Equipment and Other Property, or any portion thereof, and may use and deal with the same to the same extent as the Grantor is entitled to do so and may sell the same pursuant to law and exercise such other rights and remedies with respect to the same as may be provided by law, and file such continuation statements which it deems desirable.

(b) At any time after the exercise by Beneficiary of the option to declare the entire indebtedness of Grantor under the Note to be immediately due and payable, Trustee, upon the written request of Beneficiary, in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 38, Article 1 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, shall foreclose upon and sell the Mortgaged Property to satisfy the Debt at public auction at the front door of the courthouse of Monongalia County, West Virginia, for cash or cash equivalent (including, without limitation, for certified checks, bank drafts, wire transfer funds, cashier checks and any other method of payment which, in the sole discretion of Beneficiary, is "cash equivalent"), in hand on the day of sale, after first giving notice of such sale by publishing such notice in some newspaper of general circulation published in the county wherein the Mortgaged Property is located, or if there be no such newspaper, in a qualified newspaper of general circulation in said county, once a week for two successive weeks preceding the day of sale and after giving notice to grantor and to any subordinate lienholder who has previously notified Beneficiary of the existence of a subordinate lien, at least 20 days prior to the sale, and no other notice of such sale shall be required. Beneficiary may be a purchaser at any such sale. Any sale made hereunder may be adjourned from time to time without notice other than by oral proclamation of such adjournment at the time and place of sale, or at the time and place of any adjourned sale. Out of the proceeds of such sale Trustee shall pay, first, the costs and expenses of executing this trust, including a reasonable fee to Trustee, or to the one so acting, as his or their commission hereunder; second, to Beneficiary and Trustee all moneys which they or any of them may have paid for taxes, assessment or other governmental charges or fees, insurance, repairs, court costs, and all other costs and expenses incurred or paid under the provisions of this Deed of Trust, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of payment; third, to Beneficiary the full amount due and unpaid on the Note and all other indebtedness hereby secured, together with all interest accrued thereon to date of payment; and fourth, the balance, if any, to Grantor, its successors or assigns, upon delivery of and surrender to the purchaser or purchasers of possession of the Mortgaged Property less the expense, if any, of obtaining such possession. In the event that foreclosure proceedings are instituted hereunder but are not completed, Trustee shall be reimbursed for all costs and expenses and a reasonable fee for so acting in commencing and terminating such proceedings, and all costs and expenses to incurred by trustee, together with interest thereon until paid at the Default Rate, and said fee shall all be payable by Grantor on demand, and shall be and become a part of the Debt and shall be collectible as such. Trustee or if more than one is named as Trustee, the "Trustees," may act in the execution of this trust, and in the event either of Trustees shall act alone, the authority and power of the Trustee so acting shall be a full and complete as if the powers and authority granted to Trustees herein jointly had been granted to such Trustee alone; and either or both of Trustees are hereby authorized to act by agent or attorney in the execution of this trust. It shall not be necessary for any Trustee to be present in person at any foreclosure sale hereunder.

It is expressly covenanted and agreed by all parties hereto that Beneficiary may, at any time and from time to time hereafter, without notice, appoint and substitute another Trustee or Trustees, corporations or persons, in place of the Trustee herein named to execute the trust herein created. Upon such appointment, either with or without a conveyance to said substituted Trustee or Trustees by the Trustee herein named, or by any substituted Trustee in case the said right of appointment is exercised more than once, the new and substituted Trustee or Trustees in each instance shall be vested with all the rights, titles, interests, powers, duties and trusts in the premises which are vested in and conferred upon the Trustee herein named; and such new and substituted Trustee or Trustees shall be considered the successors and assigns of the Trustee who is named herein and substituted in his or her place and stead. Each such appointment and substitution shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing which shall recite the parties to, and the book and page of record of, this Deed of Trust, and the description of the real property herein described, which instrument, executed and acknowledged by Beneficiary or by its successors or assigns and recorded in the office of the Clerk of the County Commission of Monongalia County, West Virginia, shall be conclusive proof of the property substitution and appointment of successor Trustee or Trustees, and notice of such proper substitution and appointment to all parties in interest. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof to the contrary, a copy of any notice of trustee's sale under this Deed of Trust shall be served on Grantor by certified mail, return receipt requested, directed to Grantor at the address stated above on the first page of this Deed of Trust or to such other address given to Beneficiary in writing by Grantor, subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Deed of Trust. (c) All remedies contained in this Deed of Trust are cumulative, and the Beneficiary also has all other remedies provided by law or in equity or in any of the other Loan Documents. No delay or failure by the Beneficiary to exercise any right or remedy under this Deed of Trust will be construed to be a waiver of that right or remedy or a waiver of any Event of Default. The Beneficiary may exercise any one or more of its rights and remedies without regard to the adequacy of its security. 18. The Beneficiary's Right to Protect Security. The Beneficiary is hereby authorized to do any one or more of the following, irrespective of whether an Event of Default has occurred: (a) appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the security hereof or the rights or powers of the Beneficiary hereunder; (b) take such action as the Beneficiary may determine to pay, perform or comply with any Imposition, to cure any Event of Default and to protect its security in the Property, advance sums on behalf of the Grantor to pay, perform or comply with any Imposition, prohibited Lien, claim, cost and expense in connection with the Property, including payment for utilities, fuel or any other necessary maintenance expenses, fees, insurance and repairs; and for the purpose of exercising any such powers the Beneficiary is hereby appointed attorney-in-fact for the Grantor and is authorized to pay or advance sums to meet necessary expenses and costs of repair, employ counsel and pay reasonable attorneys' fees. All sums paid by or otherwise owing to the Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust shall be paid by the Grantor to the Beneficiary on demand, and until paid such sums shall be added to the principal secured hereby, shall be and included as part of the Obligations and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of demand.

19. The Beneficiary's Costs and Expenses. In the event of an Event of Default or the exercise by the Beneficiary of any of its rights hereunder, or if the Beneficiary shall become a party, either as plaintiff or defendant or otherwise, to any suit or legal proceeding affecting any of the Property or the Obligations, or if the Beneficiary's review and approval of any document, including a Lease, is requested by the Grantor or required by the Beneficiary, the Grantor shall pay to the Beneficiary, on demand, its costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys fees incurred in connection therewith. If such amounts are not paid, they shall be included as part of the Obligations and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of their demand. 20. Security Agreement Under Uniform Commercial Code. This Deed of Trust is a Security Agreement as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code. Notwithstanding the filing of a financing statement covering any of the Property in the records normally pertaining to personal property, at the Beneficiary's option all of the Property, for all purposes and in all proceedings, legal or equitable, shall be regarded (to the extent permitted by law), as part of the Realty whether or not any such item is physically attached to the Realty or Improvements. The mention in any such financing statement of any of the Property shall not be construed as in any way altering any of the rights of the Beneficiary or adversely affecting the priority of the Lien granted hereby or by any other Loan Document, but such mention in the financing statement is hereby declared to be for the protection of the Beneficiary in the event any court shall at any time hold that notice of the Beneficiary's priority of interest, to be effective against any third party, must be filed in the Uniform Commercial Code records. 21. The Grantor's Existence. The Grantor and any subsequent owner of the interest of the Grantor in the Property (other than an individual) shall do all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, franchises, rights and privileges under the laws of the state of its formation and its right to own property and transact business in the jurisdiction or jurisdictions where the Property is located. 22.

LIMITED GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP AGREEMENT THIS LIMITED GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP AGREEMENT (together with all extensions, amendments, renewals, substitutions and replacements hereto and hereof the "Guaranty Agreement") is made as of October 8, 2008, by GLIMCHER PROPERTIES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "Guarantor"), to and for the benefit of FIRST COMMONWEALTH BANK (the "Bank"). WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement dated as of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement, together with all extensions, renewals, amendments, substitutions and replacements thereto and thereof is referred to herein as the "Agreement") by and between Morgantown Mall Associates Limited Partnership, an Ohio limited partnership (the "Borrower") and the Bank, the Bank agreed to extend to the Borrower a term loan in a principal amount not to exceed $40,000,000.00, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement (the "Loan"), relating to certain real property known as the Morgantown Mall and located in Westover Township, Monongalia County, West Virginia; and WHEREAS, the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Bank is evidenced by a Note, as such term is defined in the Agreement, with interest at rates provided in the Note and to be repaid at the times and places and in the manner set forth in the Agreement and the Note, and containing other terms and provisions; and WHEREAS, as a condition precedent to the Bank making the Loan to the Borrower, the Bank has required that the Guarantor execute and deliver this Guaranty Agreement to the Bank; and WHEREAS, the Guarantor has agreed to execute and deliver this Guaranty Agreement to and for the benefit of the Bank, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, having determined that the execution and delivery of this Guaranty Agreement is in the Guarantor's best interests and that the Guarantor will derive substantial benefit, whether directly or indirectly, from the making of the Loans. NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in consideration for the Bank's entering into the Agreement with the Borrower and making the Loans to the Borrower, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: 1.

Recitals. The foregoing recitals are hereby incorporated into and made a material part of this Guaranty Agreement.

2. Incorporation by Reference. The Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents (as that term is defined in the Agreement) are incorporated into this Guaranty Agreement by this reference with the same force and effect as if fully set forth herein. 3. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used herein as defined terms which are not defined herein shall have the meanings given them in the Agreement. 4. Unconditional Guaranty. (i) The Guarantor unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably jointly and severally guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety the timely payment in full of all of the Obligations (as such term is defined in the Agreement), including but not limited to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, provided however, that the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not exceed $20,000,000.00 in the aggregate (the "Guaranty Cap"). (ii) The above provisions of Subsection 4(i) to the contrary notwithstanding, until all of the Obligations are paid in full, the Guarantor unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably guarantees, as a primary obligor, and not merely as surety: (a) any amounts received by the Borrower and not paid to the Bank arising out of security deposits not returned to the depositing party; rents received or held after an Event of Default; rents prepaid more than one (1) month in advance relating to a period after the occurrence of an Event of Default; condemnation awards or insurance proceeds not applied as required by the Loan Documents; or (b) losses arising due to fraud, material misrepresentation or bad faith of the Borrower or the Guarantor; the Bank's reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the enforcement or collection of the Guarantor's Obligations; losses, claims or causes of action under the Environmental Indemnity Agreement; intentional waste of all or a part of the Real Estate Collateral. The obligations of the Guarantor set forth in the immediately preceding paragraphs are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Guarantor's Obligations". If the Borrower defaults under any Obligations and the Bank has elected to exercise its remedies under Section 7.2 of the Agreement, the Guarantor will pay the Guarantor’s Obligations to the Bank. Until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full, the Guarantor's Obligations shall not be reduced in any manner whatsoever by any amounts which the Bank may realize after maturity of the Obligations, by acceleration or otherwise, as a result of payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower or by or on behalf of any other person or entity other than the Guarantor primarily or secondarily liable for the Obligations or any part thereof, or otherwise credited to the Borrower or such person or entity, or as a result of the exercise of the Bank's rights with respect to any collateral for the Obligations or any part thereof. Payments made to the Bank by the Guarantor (other than, directly or indirectly, from collateral or other persons or entities liable for any portion of the Obligations) after maturity of the Obligations, by acceleration or otherwise, shall reduce the Guarantor's Obligations. 5. Joint and Several Obligations. The Guarantor's Obligations hereunder, are joint and several, both between each Guarantor and among any other guarantors now or hereafter guaranteeing any obligations under the Loan Documents, and are independent of the obligations of the Borrower. A separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Guarantor, whether or not action is brought against the Borrower or any other guarantor or whether or not the Borrower or any other guarantor is joined in such action or actions.

6. Not a Collection Guaranty. This Guaranty Agreement is a guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection. The Guarantor waives any right to require the Bank at any time to (i) proceed against the Borrower or any other guarantor now or hereafter guaranteeing any obligations under the Loan Documents, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security for the Obligations, or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Bank's power whatsoever. 7. Bank's Right to Deal With Obligations. The Guarantor authorizes the Bank, without notice or demand and without affecting the Guarantor's liability hereunder, from time to time to (i) increase, enlarge, renew, compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Obligations or any part thereof, including but not limited to increases or decreases of the principal amount of the Loans or the rate of interest thereon, (ii) deal with the Obligations and any security for the Obligations in any manner it may see fit, (iii) accept partial payments on account of the Obligations and (iv) demand or receive additional security and/or other guaranties for the Obligations. The Guarantor acknowledges that the Bank may now have and may in the future have certain security for and other guaranties of all or any part of the Obligations, but it is specifically understood and agreed by the Guarantor that neither the execution and delivery of this Guaranty Agreement nor the holding of any security or any other guaranty by the Bank shall at any time or in any respect operate to prevent or hinder the Bank from resorting first to such other security and/or guaranty, or first to this Guaranty Agreement, or first from time to time to both. In addition, the Bank may from time to time as it sees fit resort to this Guaranty Agreement without resorting to any other security for and/or guaranty of the Obligations, or to all or any part of any security and/or any other guaranty securing the Obligations, without resorting to this Guaranty Agreement, and such action on the Bank's part shall not in any respect be considered as a waiver of any of the benefits or rights of the Bank relating to this Guaranty Agreement or such other security and/or other guaranties. 8. Consent to Releases. The Guarantor consents, without notice and without affecting the Guarantor's liability hereunder, to the release of (i) all or any part of the security for the Obligations, or the substitution of all or any part of such security, (ii) any Person liable for all or any part of the Obligations, and (iii) any other guarantor from the Obligations, or portions thereof. 9. Bankruptcy of Borrower. Neither the Guarantor's obligations to make payment in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty Agreement nor any remedy for the enforcement hereof shall be impaired, modified, changed, released or limited in any manner whatsoever by the Borrower's bankruptcy or by any impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of (i) the liability of any of the Borrower, any Person assuming the obligations of the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents or the Borrower's estate in bankruptcy or (ii) any remedy for the enforcement of the Obligations, either of which result from the operation of any present or further provision of any bankruptcy act, state or Federal law, common law or equitable cause or from the decision of any court. The Guarantor agrees that to the extent that the Borrower or any other Person liable for all or any part of the Obligations makes a payment or payments to the Bank, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be paid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any bankruptcy act, state or Federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not been made.

10. Continuing Nature of Guaranty. This Guaranty Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been paid in full and the Bank has no further obligations under the Loan Documents. 11. Waiver of Guarantor's Defenses. (a) The Guarantor waives all defenses based on suretyship. Until all Obligations of the Borrower to the Bank shall have been paid in full, even if such Obligations are in excess of the Guarantor's liability hereunder, and the Bank has no further obligations under the Loan Documents, the Guarantor waives (i) any right to enforce any remedy which the Bank now has or may hereafter have against the Borrower, (ii) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security for the Obligations now or hereafter held by the Bank and (iii) any right the Guarantor might otherwise have to the marshalling of the assets of the Borrower. The Guarantor also waives and renounces any and all homestead exemption rights against the Obligations and also waives all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty Agreement and any other notices of any kind. (b) Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, the Borrower shall default under the terms of the Notes, the Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given default or defaults by the Borrower under the Note, the Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, this Guaranty Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each and every subsequent default. 12. Subordination of Borrower's Indebtedness. Any Indebtedness of the Borrower now or hereafter owed to or held by the either or both of the Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the Obligations owed by the Borrower to the Bank. Such indebtedness of the Borrower to the Guarantor shall, if the Bank so requests, be collected, enforced and received by the Guarantor as trustee for the Bank and be paid over to the Bank on account of the Obligations of the Borrower to the Bank, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty Agreement. If the Guarantor have entered into a Subordination Agreement with the Bank, then as to any Indebtedness of the Borrower owed to the Guarantor, the terms of such Subordination Agreement shall control. 13. Postponement of Subrogation. Until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full and the Bank has no further obligation to make advances of Loans under the Loan Documents, the Guarantor postpones and subordinates in favor of the Bank any and all rights which the Guarantor may have to (i) assert any claim against the Borrower based on subrogation rights with respect to payments made hereunder, and (ii) any realization on any property of the Borrower, including participation in any marshalling of the Borrower's assets.

No lien, security title, security interest, or right of setoff shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or conduct on the part of the Bank, or by any neglect to exercise such right of setoff or to enforce such lien, security title, security interest or by any delay in so doing, and every lien, security title, security interest and right of setoff shall continue in full force and effect until specifically waived or released by an instrument in writing executed by the Bank. 15. Acceleration Upon Event of Default. At the option of the Bank and upon demand, all or any part of the Guarantor's Obligations hereunder shall become due and payable immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. 16. Payments Under Guaranty. In the event that any amount becomes due hereunder, the Guarantor promises to immediately pay such amount herein guaranteed to the Bank at the Bank's office at Central Offices, Philadelphia and Sixth Streets, Indiana, Pennsylvania 15701, or at such other address as the Bank shall instruct the Guarantor in writing, in immediately available funds. 17. No Conditions to Guaranty.

Borrower shall pay the cost of each such updated Appraisal promptly after receipt of an invoice thereon. If any such updated Appraisal indicates an Appraised Value that results in a Collateral Asset LTV in excess of 60%, Borrower shall, within ten (10) days after written notice from the Administrative Agent, prepay a portion of the Outstanding Loan Amount sufficient to reduce the Collateral Asset LTV to 60%. The failure of the Borrower to make any prepayment as required under this subsection shall constitute a Default under this Agreement. Each prepayment required to be made under this subsection shall include any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.4. Such prepayment shall be applied first to Floating Rate Advances and then to LIBOR Rate Advances. (c) The Obligations shall be “non-recourse” to the Borrower, and the Borrower shall not be liable personally to pay any of the Obligations accruing hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, it being agreed that Lender and its successors and assigns shall look solely to the Collateral Asset and the rents, issues, profits and avails thereof and to any other security given to secure the obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, including without limitation the personal liability of GPLP under the Guaranties, the Environmental Indemnity, the Account Agreement and any other Loan Documents executed by GPLP in its individual capacity. 2.7 Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods.

The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day or (ii) in the case of payment by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender which (a) is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax pursuant to Section 3.5, or (b) cannot maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans at a suitable Lending Installation pursuant to Section 3.3, with a replacement bank or other financial institution; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any applicable legal or regulatory requirements affecting the Lenders, (ii) no Default or (after notice thereof to the Borrower) no Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the Borrower shall repay (or the replacement bank or institution shall purchase, at par) all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Sections 3.4 and 3.6 if any LIBOR Rate Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be prepaid (or purchased) other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) the replacement bank or institution, if not already a Lender, and the terms and conditions of such replacement, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vi) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.3 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the processing fee referred to therein), (vii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 3.5 and (viii) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights which the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. 2.18 Usury. This Agreement and each Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject any Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If by the terms of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the interest rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding. -20-

If a Lender in good faith determines the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, any Lending Installation of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender is increased as a result of a Change (as hereinafter defined), then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which such Lender in good faith determines is attributable to this Agreement, its outstanding credit exposure hereunder or its obligation to make Loans hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s policies as to capital adequacy). “Change” means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the RiskBased Capital Guidelines (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of this Agreement which affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling any Lender. “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines” means (i) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United States implementing the July 1988 report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices Entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital Standards,” including transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement. -21-

3.3 Availability of Types of Advances. If any Lender in good faith determines that maintenance of any of its LIBOR Rate Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or directive, whether or not having the force of law, the Administrative Agent shall, with written notice to Borrower, suspend the availability of the affected Type of Advance and require any LIBOR Rate Advances of the affected Type to be repaid; or if the Required Lenders in good faith determine that (i) deposits of a type or maturity appropriate to match fund LIBOR Rate Advances are not available, the Administrative Agent shall, with written notice to Borrower, suspend the availability of the affected Type of Advance with respect to any LIBOR Rate Advances made after the date of any such determination, or (ii) an interest rate applicable to a Type of Advance does not accurately reflect the cost of making a LIBOR Rate Advance of such Type, then, if for any reason whatsoever the provisions of Section 3.1 are inapplicable, the Administrative Agent shall, with written notice to Borrower, suspend the availability of the affected Type of Advance with respect to any LIBOR Rate Advances made after the date of any such determination. If the Borrower is required to so repay a LIBOR Rate Advance, the Borrower may concurrently with such repayment borrow from the Lenders, in the amount of such repayment, a Loan bearing interest at the Floating Rate. 3.4 Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a ratable LIBOR Rate Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a ratable LIBOR Rate Advance is not made on the date specified by the Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders or as a result of unavailability pursuant to Section 3.3, the Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost (incurred or expected to be incurred) in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the ratable LIBOR Rate Advance and shall pay all such losses or costs within fifteen (15) days after written demand therefor. 3.5

Taxes. (i) All payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Note shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes. If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (a) 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 3.5) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (c) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law and (d) the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof within 30 days after such payment is made. -22-

(ii) In addition, the Borrower hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Note or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note (“Other Taxes”). (iii) The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days of the date the Administrative Agent or such Lender makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6. (iv) Each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it will, not more than ten Business Days after the Agreement Execution Date, (i) deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, and (ii) deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a United States Internal Revenue Form W-8 or W-9, as the case may be, and certify that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (x) renewals or additional copies of such form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete, and (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. All forms or amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form or amendment with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax. -23-

(v) For any period during which a Non-U.S. Lender has failed to provide the Borrower with an appropriate form pursuant to clause (iv), above (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.5 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States. (vi) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any Note pursuant to the law of any relevant jurisdiction or any treaty shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate following receipt of such documentation. (vii) If the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other governmental authority of the United States or any other country or any political subdivision thereof asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or properly completed, because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered its exemption from withholding ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax, withholding therefor, or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, together with all costs and expenses related thereto (including attorneys fees and time charges of attorneys for the Administrative Agent, which attorneys may be employees of the Administrative Agent). The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 3.5(vii) shall survive the payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement and any such Lender obligated to indemnify the Administrative Agent shall not be entitled to indemnification from the Borrower with respect to such amounts, whether pursuant to this Article or otherwise, except to the extent the Borrower participated in the actions giving rise to such liability. 3.6 Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its LIBOR Rate Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to avoid the unavailability of LIBOR Rate Advances under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5. Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its LIBOR Rate Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the LIBOR Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrower of such written statement. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement. -24-

The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

10.10 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrower and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative 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 credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 10.11 Successor Administrative Agent. Except as otherwise provided below, KeyBank National Association shall at all times serve as the Administrative Agent during the term of this Facility. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent has been grossly negligent in the performance of its obligations hereunder, the Administrative Agent may be removed at any time by written notice received by the Administrative Agent from all other Lenders, such removal to be effective on the date specified by the other Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders within thirty days after the resigning Administrative Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Administrative Agent shall appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time with the consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, appoint any of its Affiliates which is a commercial bank as a successor Administrative Agent hereunder.

10.13 Requests for Approval. If the Administrative Agent requests in writing the consent or approval of a Lender, such Lender shall respond and either approve or disapprove definitively in writing to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days (or sooner if such notice specifies a shorter period for responses based on Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that circumstances exist warranting its request for an earlier response) after such written request from the Administrative Agent. If the Lender does not so respond, that Lender shall be deemed to have approved the request. 10.14 Defaulting Lenders. At such time as a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender’s right to vote on matters which are subject to the consent or approval of the Required Lenders, each affected Lender or all Lenders shall be immediately suspended until such time as the Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, except that the amount of the Commitment of the Defaulting Lender may not be changed without its consent. If a Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its pro rata share of any Advance and until such time as such Defaulting Lender subsequently funds its pro rata share of such Advance, all Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder shall be subordinated in right of payment, as provided in the following sentence, to the prior payment in full of all principal of, interest on and fees relating to the Loans funded by the other Lenders in connection with any such Advance in which the Defaulting Lender has not funded its pro rata share (such principal, interest and fees being referred to as “Senior Loans” for the purposes of this section). All amounts paid by the Borrower, the Parent Entities or the Guarantors and otherwise due to be applied to the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms hereof shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the other Lenders in accordance with their respective pro rata shares (recalculated for the purposes hereof to exclude the Defaulting Lender) until all Senior Loans have been paid in full provided, however, in no event will any such distribution to the other Lenders give rise to any liability of the Borrower to the Defaulting Lender. After the Senior Loans have been paid in full equitable adjustments will be made in connection with future payments by the Borrower to the extent a portion of the Senior Loans had been repaid with amounts that otherwise would have been distributed to a Defaulting Lender but for the operation of this Section 10.14. This provision governs only the relationship among the Administrative Agent, each Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders; nothing hereunder shall limit the obligation of the Borrower to repay all Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The provisions of this section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether a Default occurs and is continuing, and notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (ii) any instruction of the Borrower as to its desired application of payments or (iii) the suspension of such Defaulting Lender’s right to vote on matters which are subject to the consent or approval of the Required Lenders or all Lenders.

On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and no further consent or action by the Borrower, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall be required to release the transferor Lender, and the transferor Lender shall automatically be released on the effective date of such assignment, with respect to the percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and Loans assigned to such Purchaser. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12.3.2, the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their Commitment, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment. -53-

Borrower shall pay remaining unpaid principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans in full on the Maturity Date or such earlier date as may be required under the Agreement. The Lender shall, and is hereby authorized to, record on the schedule attached hereto, or to otherwise record in accordance with its usual practice, the date and amount of each Loan and the date and amount of each principal payment hereunder. This Note is one of the Notes issued pursuant to, and is entitled to the benefits of, the Term Loan Agreement, dated as of October ____, 2008 among Borrower, Glimcher Properties Limited Partnership, KeyBank National Association individually and as Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders named therein, to which Agreement, as it may be amended from time to time, reference is hereby made for a statement of the terms and conditions governing this Note, including the terms and conditions under which this Note may be prepaid or its maturity date accelerated.

EXHIBIT E ENVIRONMENTAL INVESTIGATION SPECIFICATIONS AND PROCEDURES

Phase I Environmental Site Assessments to be prepared in accordance with the ASTM Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process (ASTM Designation E1527-94), a summary of which follows: This ASTM practice is generally considered the industry standard for conducting a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA). The purpose of this standard is to “define good commercial and customary practice in the United States of America for conducting an ESA of a parcel of commercial real estate with respect to the range of contaminants within the scope of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) and petroleum products.” The ASTM Phase I ESA is intended to permit a user to satisfy one of the requirements to qualify for the innocent landowner defense to CERCLA liability; that is, the practice that constitutes “all appropriate inquiry into the previous ownership and uses of the property consistent with good commercial or customary practices” as defined in 42 USC 9601(35)(B). The goal of the ASTM Phase I ESA is to identify “recognized environmental conditions.” Recognized environmental conditions means the presence or likely presence of any hazardous substances or petroleum products on a property under conditions that indicate an existing release, a past release, or a material threat of a release of any hazardous substances or petroleum products into structures on the property or into the ground, groundwater, or surface water of the property. The term includes hazardous substances or petroleum products even under conditions in compliance with laws. The term is not intended to include de minimus conditions that generally would not be the subject of an enforcement action if brought to the attention of appropriate governmental agencies. The ASTM standard indicates that a Phase I ESA should consist of four main components: 1) Records Review; 2) Site Reconnaissance; 3) Interviews; and 4) Report. The purpose of the records review is to obtain and review records that will help identify recognized environmental conditions in connection with the property. The site reconnaissance involves physical observation of the property’s exterior and interior, as well as an observation of adjoining properties. Interviews with previous and current owners and occupants, and local government officials provides insight into the presence or absence of recognized environmental conditions in connection with the property. The final component of the ESA, the report, contains the findings of the ESA and conclusions regarding the presence or absence of recognized environmental conditions in connection with the property. It includes documentation to support the analysis, opinions, and conclusions found in the report. While the use of this practice is intended to constitute appropriate inquiry for purposes of CERCLA’s innocent landowner defense, it is not intended that its use be limited to that purpose. The ASTM standard is intended to be an approach to conducting an inquiry designed to identify recognized environmental conditions in connection with a property, and environmental site assessments.

EXHIBIT F FORM OF OPINION OF BORROWER’S AND GUARANTOR’S COUNSEL

__________________, 2008

KeyBank National Association as Administrative Agent for the Lenders 127 Public Square, 8th Floor Cleveland, Ohio 44114 Re:

$40,000,000 Term Loan to Glimcher Northtown Venture, LLC and GB Northtown, LLC (collectively , the “Borrower”)

Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as counsel for Borrower and Glimcher Properties Limited Partnership (“Guarantor”) in connection with a $40,000,000 secured term loan to Borrower, (the “Loan”), which Loan is being made pursuant to that certain Term Loan Agreement dated as of October __, 2008 (the “Loan Agreement”) among Borrower, Guarantor, KeyBank National Association and the several lenders from time to time parties thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), and KeyBank National Association, as Administrative Agent (the “Agent”). All capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement. In connection with the Loan we have been furnished with originals or copies certified to our satisfaction of the operating agreements, partnership agreements and certificates of limited partnership, and Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the general partner of the Guarantor, acting on behalf of the Guarantor individually and in its capacity as the sole member of the Borrower and all such corporate and other records of the Borrower, Guarantor and such general partner, with such declarations and agreements, and certificates of officers and representatives of the Borrower and Guarantor, with such other documents, and we have made such other examinations and investigations as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. We have examined the originals of the following documents, each of which is addressed to the Lender or to which the Lender is a party (all of which are sometimes collectively referred to as the “Loan Documents”): 1.

The Loan Agreement;

2.

The Notes;

3.

The Guaranties;

4.

The Environmental Indemnity; F-1

Processed and formatted by SEC Watch - Visit SECWatch.com

5.

The Mortgage; and

6.

The other Security Documents.

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that: 1.

Borrower is a limited liability company and the Guarantor is a limited partnership, both duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Borrower and Guarantor each have all requisite power and authority to own its properties, carry on its business and to deliver and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents.

2.

The general partner of Guarantor is a corporation or trust duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The general partner of Guarantor has all requisite power and authority to own its properties, carry on its business and to deliver and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents.

3.

The execution, delivery, and performance by each of the Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party has been duly authorized by all necessary action of the Borrower and Guarantor and does not (i) require any consent or approval of any partner or shareholder of such entity or any other person or entity excepting such consents or approvals as have actually been obtained; (ii) violate any provision of any law, rule, or regulation of the United States or the State of Ohio, or any provision of the limited liability company, partnership or corporate law presently in effect having applicability to the Borrower or Guarantor or Guarantor’s general partner, as applicable; (iii) violate any provision of the operating agreement of the Borrower or the partnership agreement of the Guarantor or the articles of incorporation or bylaws of Guarantor’s general partner; (iv) violate any presently existing statutory or administrative provision or judicial decision applicable to the Borrower or the Guarantor or its general partner; or (v) result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or instrument affecting the Borrower or the Guarantor or Guarantor’s general partner.

4.

Each Loan Document to which it is a party (a) has been properly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Guarantor, (b) constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantor, and (c) is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except that we express no opinion regarding the enforceability of the Mortgage under Minnesota law.

5.

To our knowledge, no presently existing authorization, exemption, consent, approval, license, or registration with any court or governmental department, commission, bureau, agency, or instrumentality will be necessary for the valid, binding, and enforceable execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Loan Documents.

6.

To our knowledge, there are no actions, suits, or proceedings pending or threatened against the Borrower or the Guarantor before any court or governmental entity or instrumentality which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Loan Agreement). F-2

7.

The Loan Documents (other than the Mortgage) are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, and the Loan, including the interest rate reserved in the applicable Note and all fees and charges paid or to be paid by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with such Loan pursuant to the applicable Loan Documents, is not in violation of the usury laws of the State of Ohio.

The opinions expressed herein are expressly made subject to and qualified by the following: (a) We have assumed that the Loan Documents are duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Agent, the Lenders and all other parties other than the Borrower and the Guarantor. (b) This opinion is based upon existing laws, ordinances and regulations in effect as of the date hereof. (c) This opinion is limited to the laws of the State of Ohio and applicable federal law and no opinion is expressed as to the laws of any other jurisdiction. (d) We have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals (other than the Loan Documents) and the conformity to original documents of all documents (other than the Loan Documents) submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies. (e) The opinions expressed herein are qualified to the extent that: (i) the enforceability of any rights or remedies in any agreement or instruments may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally; and (ii) the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy is subject to the discretion of a court of competent jurisdiction. This opinion may be relied upon by only by the addressees hereof, its attorneys, auditors, advisors, participants, and their respective successors and assigns, and not by any other party. Very truly yours,

This is an absolute assignment, not an assignment for security only. -4-

2.2 Grant of License. Mortgagee hereby confers upon Mortgagor a license (“License”) to collect and retain the Rents as they become due and payable, so long as no Event of Default, as defined in Section 6.2 below, shall exist and be continuing. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Mortgagee shall have the right, which it may choose to exercise in its sole discretion, to terminate this License without notice to or demand upon Mortgagor, and without regard to the adequacy of Mortgagee’s security under this Mortgage. 2.3 Collection and Application of Rents. Subject to the License granted to Mortgagor under Section 2.2 above, Mortgagee has the right, power and authority to collect any and all Rents. Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee its attorney-in-fact to perform any and all of the following acts, if and at the times when Mortgagee in its sole discretion may so choose: (a)

Demand, receive and enforce payment of any and all Rents; or

(b)

Give receipts, releases and satisfactions for any and all Rents; or

(c)

Sue either in the name of Mortgagor or in the name of Mortgagee for any and all Rents.

Mortgagee and Mortgagor agree that the mere recordation of the assignment granted herein entitles Mortgagee immediately to collect and receive rents upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, as defined in Section 6.2, without first taking any acts of enforcement under applicable law, such as, but not limited to, providing notice to Mortgagor, filing foreclosure proceedings, or seeking and/or obtaining the appointment of a receiver. Further, Mortgagee’s right to the Rents does not depend on whether or not Mortgagee takes possession of the Property as permitted under Subsection 6.3(c). In Mortgagee’s sole discretion, Mortgagee may choose to collect Rents either with or without taking possession of the Property. Mortgagee shall apply all Rents collected by it in the manner provided under Section 6.6. If an Event of Default occurs while Mortgagee is in possession of all or part of the Property and is collecting and applying Rents as permitted under this Mortgage, Mortgagee and any receiver shall nevertheless be entitled to exercise and invoke every right and remedy afforded any of them under this Mortgage and at law or in equity. 2.4 Mortgagee Not Responsible. Under no circumstances shall Mortgagee have any duty to produce Rents from the Property. Regardless of whether or not Mortgagee, in person or by agent, takes actual possession of the Premises and Improvements, unless Mortgagee agrees in writing to the contrary, Mortgagee is not and shall not be deemed to be: (a)

A “mortgagee in possession” for any purpose; or

(b)

Responsible for performing any of the obligations of the lessor under any lease; or

(c) Responsible for any waste committed by lessees or any other parties, any dangerous or defective condition of the Property, or any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Property, unless caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of Mortgagee; or -5-

Mortgagor shall not lease the Property or any part of it except strictly in accordance with the Term Loan Agreement. 3.

Grant of Security Interest.

3.1 Security Agreement. The parties intend for this Mortgage to create a lien on the Property, and an absolute assignment of the Rents, all in favor of Mortgagee. The parties acknowledge that some of the Property and some or all of the Rents may be determined under applicable law to be personal property or fixtures. To the extent that any Property or Rents may be or be determined to be personal property, Mortgagor as debtor hereby grants Mortgagee as secured party a security interest in all such Property and Rents, to secure payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. This Mortgage constitutes a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State in which the Property is located, covering all such Property and Rents. 3.2 Financing Statements. Mortgagor hereby authorizes Mortgagee to file one or more financing statements. In addition, Mortgagor shall execute such other documents as Mortgagee may from time to time require to perfect or continue the perfection of Mortgagee’s security interest in any Property or Rents. As provided in Section 5.10 below, Mortgagor shall pay all fees and costs that Mortgagee may incur in filing such documents in public offices and in obtaining such record searches as Mortgagee may reasonably require. In case Mortgagor fails to execute any financing statements or other documents for the perfection or continuation of any security interest, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute any such documents on its behalf. If any financing statement or other document is filed in the records normally pertaining to personal property, that filing shall never be construed as in any way derogating from or impairing this Mortgage or the rights or obligations of the parties under it. 4.

Fixture Filing.

This Mortgage constitutes a financing statement filed as a fixture filing under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in the State in which the Property is located, as amended or recodified from time to time, covering any Property which now is or later may become fixtures attached to the Premises or Improvements. For this purpose, the respective addresses of Mortgagor, as debtor, and Mortgagee, as secured party, are as set forth in the preambles of this Mortgage. 5.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section to the contrary, Mortgagor shall have the right to pay or cause to be paid any such tax or special assessment under protest or to otherwise contest any such tax or special assessment but only if (i) such contest has the effect of preventing the collection of such tax or special assessment so contested and also prevent the sale or forfeiture of the Property or any part thereof or any interest therein, (ii) Mortgagor promptly notifies Mortgagee in writing of its intent to contest such tax or special assessment, and (iii) if so requested in writing by Mortgagee, Mortgagor has deposited security in form and amount reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, and increases the amount of such security so deposited promptly after Mortgagee’s request therefor.

5.4 Liens, Charges and Encumbrances. Mortgagor shall immediately discharge any lien on the Property which Mortgagee has not consented to in writing. 5.5 Damages, Restoration, and Insurance Proceeds. As long as no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, all insurance proceeds for losses at the Property of less than $500,000.00 shall be adjusted with and payable to the Mortgagor. In case of loss, Mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to participate in and reasonably approve the settlement of any insurance claim in excess of $500,000.00 and all claims thereafter, and Mortgagee is at all times authorized to collect and receive any insurance money for those claims which Mortgagee is entitled to approve the settlement of hereunder. At the election of Mortgagee, such insurance proceeds may be applied to reduce the outstanding balance of the indebtedness under the Term Loan Agreement or to pay for costs of repair and restoration of the Property; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Mortgagee shall make such insurance proceeds available to pay for such costs of repair and restoration.

In the event that Mortgagee does not elect to apply the insurance proceeds to the indebtedness secured hereby as set forth above, such insurance proceeds shall be used to reimburse Mortgagor for the cost of rebuilding or restoring the Premises. The Premises shall be so restored or rebuilt as to be substantially the same quality and character as the Premises were prior to such damage or destruction in accordance with the original plans and specifications or to such other condition as Mortgagee shall reasonably approve in writing.

5.6 Condemnation Proceeds. Mortgagor hereby assigns, transfers and sets over unto Mortgagee its entire interest in the proceeds (the “Condemnation Proceeds”) of any award or any claim for damages for any of the Property taken or damaged under the power of eminent domain or by condemnation or any transaction in lieu of condemnation (“Condemnation”), unless, notwithstanding the forgoing, such taking, damage or condemnation does not cause a material diminution in the value of the Premises in which case all Condemnation Proceeds for damages to the Property shall be payable to the Mortgagor. Mortgagee shall make available to Mortgagor the Condemnation Proceeds for the restoration of the Premises if Mortgagor satisfies all of the conditions set forth in this Section 5.6 hereof for disbursement of insurance proceeds.

If Mortgagee is entitled to and does elect to apply Condemnation Proceeds upon or in reduction of the indebtedness secured hereby, then Mortgagee shall reduce the then outstanding balance of the Advances under the Term Loan Agreement by the amount of the Condemnation Proceeds received and so applied by Mortgagee. If the Condemnation Proceeds are required to be used as aforesaid to reimburse Mortgagor for the cost of rebuilding or restoring buildings or improvements on the Property, or if Mortgagee elects that the Condemnation Proceeds be so used, and the buildings and other improvements shall be rebuilt or restored, the Condemnation Proceeds shall be paid out in the same manner as is provided in this Section 5.6 hereof for the payment of insurance proceeds toward the cost of rebuilding or restoration of such buildings and other improvements. Any surplus which may remain out of the Condemnation Proceeds after payment of such cost of rebuilding or restoration shall, at the option of Mortgagee, be applied on account of the indebtedness secured hereby or be paid to any other party entitled thereto. 5.7

A “Default” occurs under the Term Loan Agreement (as such term is defined therein).

6.3 Remedies.

(a) Acceleration. Upon the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default the whole of the principal sum hereby secured shall, at once either automatically or at the option of Mortgagee as described in Section 8.1 of the Term Loan Agreement, become immediately due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon, without any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind to Mortgagor. (b) Receiver. Mortgagee shall, as a matter of right, without notice and without giving bond to Mortgagor or anyone claiming by, under or through Mortgagor, and without regard for the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor or the then value of the Property, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be entitled to have a receiver appointed for all or any part of the Property and the Rents, and the proceeds, issues and profits thereof, with the rights and powers referenced below and such other rights and powers as the court making such appointment shall confer, and Mortgagor hereby consents to the appointment of such receiver and shall not oppose any such appointment.

If Mortgagee so requests, Mortgagor shall assemble all of the Property that has been removed from the Premises and make all of it available to Mortgagee at the site of the Premises. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Mortgagee as Mortgagor’s attorney-in-fact to perform such acts and execute such documents as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may consider to be appropriate in connection with taking these measures, including endorsement of Mortgagor’s name on any instruments. (d) Cure; Protection of Security. Mortgagee may cure any breach or default of Mortgagor, and if it chooses to do so in connection with any such cure, Mortgagee may also enter the Property and/or do any and all other things which it may in its sole discretion consider necessary and appropriate to protect the security of this Mortgage, including, without limitation, completing construction of the improvements at the Property contemplated by the Term Loan Agreement. Such other things may include: appearing in and/or defending any action or proceeding which purports to affect the security of, or the rights or powers of Mortgagee under, this Mortgage; paying, purchasing, contesting or compromising any encumbrance, charge, lien or claim of lien which in Mortgagee’s sole judgment is or may be senior in priority to this Mortgage, such judgment of Mortgagee or to be conclusive as among the parties to this Mortgage; obtaining insurance and/or paying any premiums or charges for insurance required to be carried under the Term Loan Agreement; otherwise caring for and protecting any and all of the Property; and/or employing counsel, accountants, contractors and other appropriate persons to assist Mortgagee.

Mortgagee or its nominee may bid and become the purchaser of all or any part of the Property at any foreclosure or other sale hereunder, and the amount of Mortgagee’s successful bid shall be credited on the Secured Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, Mortgagee may proceed by a suit or suits in law or equity, whether for specific performance of any covenant or agreement herein contained or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for any foreclosure under the judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction. In addition to the right provided in Subsection 6.3(a), upon, or at any time after the filing of a complaint to foreclose this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver of the property by the court in which such complaint is filed, and Mortgagor hereby consents to such appointment.

Mortgagee will publish notice of the sale in a local daily newspaper of general circulation. Upon receipt of any written request, Mortgagee will make the Property available to any bona fide prospective purchaser for inspection during reasonable business hours. Notwithstanding, Mortgagee shall be under no obligation to consummate a sale if, in its judgment, none of the offers received by it equals the fair value of the Property offered for sale. The foregoing procedures do not constitute the only procedures that may be commercially reasonable. (i) Single or Multiple Foreclosure Sales.

If Mortgagee chooses to have more than one Foreclosure Sale, Mortgagee at its option may cause the Foreclosure Sales to be held simultaneously or successively, on the same day, or on such different days and at such different times and in such order as Mortgagee may deem to be in its best interests.

At any Foreclosure Sale, any person, including Mortgagor or Mortgagee, may bid for and acquire the Property or any part of it to the extent permitted by then applicable law.

MORTGAGOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING IN ANY WAY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE, THE NOTE, OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE LOAN OR ANY OTHER STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF MORTGAGOR OR MORTGAGEE.

7.16 Partial Invalidity; Maximum Allowable Rate of Interest. Mortgagor and Mortgagee intend and believe that each provision in this Mortgage and the Notes comports with all applicable local, state and federal laws and judicial decisions. However, if any provision or provisions, or if any portion of any provision or provisions, in this Mortgage or the Notes is found by a court of law to be in violation of any applicable local, state or federal ordinance, statute, law, administrative or judicial decision, or public policy, and if such court should declare such portion, provision or provisions of this Mortgage and the Notes to be illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable as written, then it is the intent both of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that such portion, provision or provisions shall be given force to the fullest possible extent that they are legal, valid and enforceable, that the remainder of this Mortgage and the Notes shall be construed as if such illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable portion, provision or provisions were not contained therein, and that the rights, obligations and interest of Mortgagor and Mortgagee under the remainder of this Mortgage and the Notes shall continue in full force and effect. All agreements herein and in the Notes are expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of advancement of the proceeds hereof, acceleration of maturity of the unpaid principal balance of the Notes, or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Holders for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be advanced hereunder exceed the highest lawful rate permissible under applicable usury laws. If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of the Notes or any other agreement referred to herein, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law which a court of competent jurisdiction may deem applicable hereto, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity and if from any circumstance the Holders shall ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance due under the Notes and not to the payment of interest. 7.17 “THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT IS THE FINAL EXPRESSION OF THE MORTGAGE, ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS, SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AS THE SAME EXISTS TODAY AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF ANY PRIOR OR CONTEMPORANEOUS ORAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO. THE PARTIES HEREBY AFFIRM THAT NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES EXISTS.

(b) Receiver. As a matter of right, without notice and without regard to the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor, or the existence of waste of the Property or adequacy of the security of the Property, and without giving bond, apply for the appointment of a receiver in accordance with the statutes and law made and provided for who shall have all the rights, powers and remedies as provided by such statute or law, including without limitation the rights of receiver pursuant to Minn. Stat. Section 576.01, as amended, and who shall from the date of its appointment through any period of redemption existing at law collect the Rents, manage the Property so as to prevent waste, execute leases within or beyond the period of receivership, pay all expenses for normal maintenance of the Property, and perform the terms of this Mortgage and apply the Rents to the payment of the expenses enumerated in Minn. Stat. Section 576.01, Subd. 2 in the priority mentioned therein and to all expenses for maintenance of the Property and to the costs and expenses of the receivership, including attorneys’ fees, to the repayment of the Notes and as further provided in the Assignment of Rents executed by Mortgagor to Mortgagee whether contained in this Mortgage or in a separate instrument.

Acknowledgment of Waiver of Hearing Before Sale. Mortgagor understands and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur, Mortgagee has the right, inter alia, to foreclose this Mortgage by advertisement pursuant to Minn. Stat. Chapter 580, as hereafter amended, or pursuant to any similar or replacement statute hereafter enacted; that if Mortgagee elects to foreclose by advertisement, it may cause the Property or any part thereof to be sold at public auction; that notice of such sale must be published for six (6) successive weeks at least once a week in a newspaper of general circulation, and that no personal notice is required to be served upon Mortgagor.

Mortgagor further understands that under the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Minnesota it may have the right to notice and hearing before the Property may be sold and that the procedure for foreclosure by advertisement described above does not insure that notice will be given to Mortgagor and neither said procedure for foreclosure by advertisement nor the UCC requires any hearing or other judicial proceeding. MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE PROPERTY MAY BE FORECLOSED BY ADVERTISEMENT AND THAT THE PERSONAL PROPERTY MAY BE DISPOSED OF PURSUANT TO THE UCC, ALL AS DESCRIBED ABOVE. MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS REPRESENTED BY LEGAL COUNSEL; THAT BEFORE SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT THIS SECTION AND MORTGAGOR’S CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS WERE FULLY EXPLAINED BY SUCH COUNSEL AND THAT MORTGAGOR UNDERSTANDS THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF THE RIGHTS WAIVED HEREBY AND THE EFFECT OF SUCH WAIVER. -2-

5. Leases and Rents. (a) Mortgagee’s rights under this subsection are governed by Minn. Stat. § 559. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Mortgagor’s revocable license to collect the Rents set forth in Section 2.2 shall immediately cease and terminate. Upon or at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, including but not limited to failure of the Mortgagor to pay any of the items set forth in subparagraphs 5(c)(i)-(v) below, or if any material representation or warranty herein proves to be untrue, then the Mortgagee, without regard to waste, adequacy of the security or solvency of the Mortgagor, may declare all obligations immediately due and payable and may, at its option, without notice: (i) Apply for appointment of a receiver in accordance with the statutes and law made and provided for, which receivership Mortgagor hereby consents to, who shall collect the Rents; enforce the payment thereof and exercise all of the rights of the Mortgagor under the Leases and all of the rights of the Mortgagee hereunder; and may enter upon, take possession of, manage and operate the Property so to prevent waste; execute Leases within or beyond the period of receivership, or any part thereof; may cancel, enforce or modify the leases, and fix or modify Rents, and do any acts which the Mortgagee deems proper to protect the security hereof; perform the terms of this Mortgage and apply the Rents as hereinafter provided. (b) The exercise of any of the foregoing rights or remedies and the application of the Rents pursuant to this Rider, shall not cure or waive any Event of Default (or notice of default) or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice nor in any way operate to prevent the Mortgagee from pursuing any remedy which now or hereafter it may have under the terms and conditions of the Mortgage or the Notes secured thereby or any other instruments securing the same. The rights and powers of the Mortgagee hereunder shall remain in full force and effect both prior to and after any foreclosure of the Mortgage and any sale pursuant thereto and until expiration of the period of redemption from said sale, regardless of whether a deficiency remains from said sale. The purchaser at any foreclosure sale, including the Mortgagee, shall have the right, at any time and without limitation as provided in Minn. Stat. Section 582.03, to advance money to any receiver appointed hereunder to pay any part or all of the items which the receiver would otherwise be authorized to pay if cash were available from the Property and the sum so advanced, with interest at the rate then in effect under the terms of the Notes, shall be a part of the sum required to be paid to redeem from any foreclosure sale. The rights under this Paragraph 5(b) shall in no way be dependent upon and shall apply without regard to whether the Property is in danger of being lost, materially injured or damaged or whether the Property is adequate to discharge the Notes. (c) Notwithstanding anything in this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, and specifically replacing contrary provisions in this Mortgage, all Rents collected by Mortgagee or the receiver each month following the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default shall be applied as follows: (i)

to payment of all reasonable fees of the receiver approved by the court;

(ii) to payment of all tenant security deposits then owing to tenants under any of the Leases pursuant to the provisions of Minn. Stat. § 504B.178; -3-

(iii) to payment of all prior or current real estate taxes and special assessments with respect to the Property, or if this Mortgage or any other instrument relating to the obligations requires periodic escrow payments for such taxes and assessments, to the escrow payments then due; (iv) to payment of all premiums then due for the insurance required with respect to the Property, or if this Mortgage or any other instrument relating to the obligations requires periodic escrow payments for such premiums, to the escrow payments then due; (v)

to payment of expenses incurred for normal maintenance of the Property;

(vi) if received prior to any foreclosure sale of the Property pursuant to this Mortgage, to Mortgagee for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby, but no such payment made after acceleration of the indebtedness secured hereby shall affect such acceleration; and (vii)

if the Property shall be foreclosed and sold pursuant to a foreclosure sale, then:

(A) If the Mortgagee is the purchaser at the foreclosure sale, the Rents shall be paid to the Mortgagee to be applied to the extent of any deficiency remaining after the sale, the balance to be retained by the Mortgagee, and if the Property be redeemed by the Mortgagor or any other party entitled to redeem, to be applied as a credit against the redemption price with any remaining excess Rents to be paid to the Mortgagor, provided, if the Property not be redeemed, any remaining excess Rents to belong to the Mortgagee, whether or not a deficiency exists; and (B) If the Mortgagee is not the purchaser at the foreclosure sale, the Rents shall be paid to the Mortgagee to be applied first, to the extent of any deficiency remaining after the sale, the balance to be retained by the purchaser, and if the Property be redeemed by the Mortgagor or any other party entitled to redeem, to be applied as a credit against the redemption price with any remaining excess Rents to be paid to the Mortgagor, provided, if the Property not be redeemed any remaining excess Rents shall be paid first, to the purchaser at the foreclosure sale in an amount equal to the interest accrued upon the sale price pursuant to Minn. Stat. Section 580.23 or Section 581.10, then to the Mortgagee to the extent of any deficiency remaining unpaid and the remainder to the purchaser. The rights and powers of Mortgagee and receivers under this Mortgage and the application of Rents under this Rider shall continue until expiration of the redemption period from any foreclosure sale, whether or not any deficiency remains after a foreclosure sale. 6.

LIMITED PAYMENT GUARANTY This Limited Payment Guaranty is made as of October 22, 2008 by Glimcher Properties Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (“Guarantor”) to and for the benefit of KeyBank National Association, individually (“KeyBank”) and as administrative agent (“Administrative Agent”) for itself and the lenders under the Loan Agreement (as defined below) and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Lenders”). RECITALS A. Glimcher Northtown Venture LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Glimcher Borrower”) and GB Northtown, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“GB Borrower” and collectively with Glimcher Borrower, the “Borrower”) and Guarantor have requested that the Lenders make a single disbursement term loan available to Borrower in an aggregate principal amount of $40,000,000 (the “Loan”). B. The Lenders have agreed to make the Loan available to Borrower pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in a Term Loan Agreement of even date herewith among Borrower, Guarantor, KeyBank, individually, and as Administrative Agent, and the Lenders named therein (as amended, modified or restated from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”). All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement. C. Borrower has executed and delivered or will execute and deliver to the Lenders promissory notes in the principal amount of each Lender’s Commitment as evidence of Borrower’s indebtedness to each such Lender with respect to the Loan (the promissory notes described above, together with any amendments or allonges thereto, or restatements, replacements or renewals thereof, and/or new promissory notes to new Lenders under the Loan Agreement, are collectively referred to herein as the “Notes”). D. Guarantor is the sole member of both Glimcher Borrower and GB Borrower. Guarantor acknowledges that the extension of credit by the Lenders to Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement will benefit Guarantor by enhancing the financial strength of the Borrower. The execution and delivery of this Guaranty by Guarantor is a condition precedent to the performance by the Lenders of their obligations under the Loan Agreement. AGREEMENTS NOW, THEREFORE, Guarantor, in consideration of the matters described in the foregoing Recitals, which Recitals are incorporated herein and made a part hereof, and for other good and valuable consideration, hereby agrees as follows:

(a) the full and prompt payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, and the prompt payment of all sums which may now be or may hereafter become due and owing under the Notes, the Loan Agreement, and the other Loan Documents; and

(b)

the payment of all Enforcement Costs (as hereinafter defined in Paragraph 7 hereof)

All amounts due, debts, liabilities, and payment obligations described in subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 1 are referred to herein as the “Loan Indebtedness.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless a Guaranty Limitation Suspension Event (as defined below) has occurred and is continuing as of the date of delivery of any written demand given under Paragraph 2 below by Administrative Agent to Guarantor for payment of the outstanding principal balance under the Notes, Guarantor’s aggregate liability hereunder with respect to the then-outstanding principal balance under of the Notes shall in no event exceed Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) (the “Maximum Principal Guaranteed Amount”). If such a Guaranty Limitation Suspension Event does then exist, there shall be no limitation on the amount of Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty. Guarantor expressly acknowledges and agrees that the limitation of Guarantor’s liability to the Maximum Principal Guaranteed Amount applies only to the principal balance of the Notes and shall not apply to interest, fees or any other non-principal amounts which comprise the Loan Indebtedness or to the Enforcement Costs, liability for which shall not be limited hereunder. The term “Guaranty Limitation Suspension Event” as used herein shall mean, as of any date of determination, that (i) (A) Herberger’s shall have failed to be in occupancy of, and open for business in, its premises at the Collateral Asset on December 31, 2008 or shall have ceased at any time thereafter to be both in occupancy of, and open for business in, such premises and not more than thirty-one (31) days delinquent in paying rent due under its lease of such premises or (B) any two of Home Depot, LA Fitness, Best Buy and Burlington Coat Factory shall have ceased at any time after the date hereof to be both in occupancy of, and open for business in, their premises at the Collateral Asset and not more than thirty-one (31) days delinquent in paying rent due under their leases of such premises and (ii) Borrower has failed by such date of determination to either (A) enter into a lease or leases with a replacement tenant or tenants acceptable in all respects to the Administrative Agent, in its reasonable discretion, or (B) cause the Administrative Agent to have received and approved an Appraisal establishing an updated Appraised Value for the Collateral Asset reflecting the loss of such tenant or tenants and repay a sufficient amount of the Outstanding Loan Amount to achieve a Collateral Asset LTV of sixty percent (60%) or less, using such updated Appraised Value. In no event shall the Maximum Principal Guaranteed Amount be reduced below the amount stated above as a result of: (i) any principal payments made by Borrower under the Loan, including without limitation any optional prepayments under Section 2.6(a) of the Loan Agreement or mandatory prepayments under Section 2.6(b) of the Loan Agreement; (ii) Administrative Agent’s foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure with respect to any collateral securing the Indebtedness; or (iii) the payment to Administrative Agent by Guarantor of any amount pursuant to a Non-Recourse Exception Guaranty Agreement or an Account Security Pledge, Assignment and Control Agreement of even date herewith made by Guarantor, in favor of Administrative Agent, or that certain Environmental Indemnity Agreement of even date herewith made by Guarantor and Borrower in favor of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ agreement to the foregoing limitation on Guarantor’s liability shall in no way be deemed to limit or restrict Administrative Agent’s right to apply any sums paid by Guarantor to any portion of the Obligations of Borrower with respect to the Loan. -2-

2. In the event of any default by Borrower from time to time in making payment of the Loan Indebtedness beyond the expiration of any applicable grace period provided for in the Loan Agreement, Guarantor agrees, within thirty (30) days after written demand by the Administrative Agent to pay the Loan Indebtedness, subject to the limitations set forth in Paragraph 1, as may then be or thereafter become due and owing or to be performed under the terms of the Notes, the Loan Agreement, and the other Loan Documents. 3. Guarantor does hereby waive (i) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and any and all notices and demands of every kind which may be required to be given by any statute, rule or law, (ii) any defense, right of set-off or other claim which Guarantor may have against Borrower or which Guarantor or Borrower may have against the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or the holder of a Note, (iii) presentment for payment, demand for payment (other than as provided for in Paragraph 2 above), notice of nonpayment (other than as provided for in Paragraph 2 above) or dishonor, protest and notice of protest, diligence in collection and any and all formalities which otherwise might be legally required to charge Guarantor with liability, (iv) any failure by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to inform Guarantor of any facts the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may now or hereafter know about Borrower, the Loan, or the transactions contemplated by the Loan Agreement, it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have no duty so to inform and that Guarantor is fully responsible for being and remaining informed by Borrower of all circumstances bearing on the existence or creation, or the risk of nonpayment of the Loan Indebtedness, and (v) any and all right to cause a marshalling of assets of Borrower or any other action by any court or governmental body with respect thereto, or to cause the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to proceed against any other security given to a Lender in connection with the Loan Indebtedness. Credit may be granted or continued from time to time by the Lenders to Borrower without notice to or authorization from Guarantor, regardless of the financial or other condition of Borrower at the time of any such grant or continuation. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have no obligation to disclose or discuss with Guarantor the Lenders’ assessment of the financial condition of Borrower. Guarantor acknowledges that no representations of any kind whatsoever have been made by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to Guarantor. No modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Guaranty shall be binding upon the Administrative Agent and the Lenders except as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and delivered on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. 4. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor’s liability as guarantor shall in no way be impaired by any renewals or extensions which may be made from time to time, with or without the knowledge or consent of Guarantor of the time for payment of interest or principal under a Note or by any forbearance or delay in collecting interest or principal under a Note, or by any waiver by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Documents, or by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders’ failure or election not to pursue any other remedies they may have against Borrower, or by any change or modification in a Note, the Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Documents, or by the acceptance by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of any security or any increase, substitution or change therein, or by the release by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of any security or any withdrawal thereof or decrease therein, or by the application of payments received from any source to the payment of any obligation other than the Loan Indebtedness, even though a Lender might lawfully have elected to apply such payments to any part or all of the Loan Indebtedness, it being the intent hereof that Guarantor shall remain liable as principal for payment of the Loan Indebtedness until all indebtedness has been paid in full, notwithstanding any act or thing which might otherwise operate as a legal or equitable discharge of a surety. Guarantor further understands and agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may at any time enter into agreements with Borrower to amend and modify a Note, the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any thereof, and may waive or release any provision or provisions of a Note, the Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Document and, with reference to such instruments, may make and enter into any such agreement or agreements as the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower may deem proper and desirable, without in any manner impairing this Guaranty or any of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders’ rights hereunder or any of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. -3-

5. This is an absolute, unconditional, complete, present and continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection. Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be joint and several with any and all other guarantees given in connection with the Loan from time to time. Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty may be enforced by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders without the necessity at any time of resorting to or exhausting any security or collateral, if any, given in connection herewith or with a Note, the Loan Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents or by or resorting to any other guaranties, and Guarantor hereby waives the right to require the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to join Borrower in any action brought hereunder or to commence any action against or obtain any judgment against Borrower or to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right. Guarantor further agrees that nothing contained herein or otherwise shall prevent the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from pursuing concurrently or successively all rights and remedies available to them at law and/or in equity or under a Note, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Documents, and the exercise of any of their rights or the completion of any of their remedies shall not constitute a discharge of any of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, it being the purpose and intent of Guarantor that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be primary, absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever. Neither Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any manner whatsoever by any impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of the liability of Borrower under a Note, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document or by reason of Borrower’s bankruptcy or by reason of any creditor or bankruptcy proceeding instituted by or against Borrower. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective and be deemed to have continued in existence or be reinstated (as the case may be) if at any time payment of all or any part of any sum payable pursuant to a Note, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document is rescinded or otherwise required to be returned by the payee upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of the payor, all as though such payment to such Lender had not been made, regardless of whether such Lender contested the order requiring the return of such payment. The obligations of Guarantor pursuant to the preceding sentence shall survive any termination, cancellation, or release of this Guaranty. 6. Documents.

7. If: (i) this Guaranty, a Note, or any of the Loan Documents are placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or is collected through any legal proceeding; (ii) an attorney is retained to represent the Administrative Agent or any Lender in any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, or other proceedings affecting creditors’ rights and involving a claim under this Guaranty, a Note, the Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Document; (iii) an attorney is retained to enforce any of the other Loan Documents or to provide advice or other representation with respect to the Loan Documents in connection with an enforcement action or potential enforcement action; or (iv) an attorney is retained to represent the Administrative Agent or any Lender in any other legal proceedings whatsoever in connection with this Guaranty, a Note, the Loan Agreement, any of the Loan Documents, or any property securing the Obligations arising under the Notes, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than any action or proceeding brought by any Lender or participant against the Administrative Agent alleging a breach by the Administrative Agent of its duties under the Loan Documents), then Guarantor shall pay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender within thirty (30) days after written demand all reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, court costs, filing fees and all other costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith (all of which are referred to herein as “Enforcement Costs”), in addition to all other amounts due hereunder. 8. The parties hereto intend that each provision in this Guaranty comports with all applicable local, state and federal laws and judicial decisions. However, if any provision or provisions, or if any portion of any provision or provisions, in this Guaranty is found by a court of law to be in violation of any applicable local, state or federal ordinance, statute, law, administrative or judicial decision, or public policy, and if such court should declare such portion, provision or provisions of this Guaranty to be illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable as written, then it is the intent of all parties hereto that such portion, provision or provisions shall be given force to the fullest possible extent that they are legal, valid and enforceable, that the remainder of this Guaranty shall be construed as if such illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable portion, provision or provisions were not contained therein, and that the rights, obligations and interest of the Administrative Agent and the Lender or the holder of a Note under the remainder of this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect. 9. Any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor now or hereafter existing is hereby subordinated to the Loan Indebtedness. Guarantor will not seek, accept, or retain for Guarantor’s own account, any payment from Borrower on account of such subordinated debt at any time when a Default or Unmatured Default exists under the Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents, and any such payments to Guarantor made while any Default or Unmatured Default then exists under the Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents on account of such subordinated debt shall be collected and received by Guarantor in trust for the Lenders and shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders on account of the Loan Indebtedness without impairing or releasing the obligations of Guarantor hereunder. 10. Guarantor hereby subordinates to the Loan Indebtedness any and all claims and rights, including, without limitation, subrogation rights, contribution rights, reimbursement rights and set-off rights, which Guarantor may have against Borrower arising from a payment made by Guarantor under this Guaranty and agree that, until the entire Loan Indebtedness is paid in full, not to assert or take advantage of any subrogation rights of Guarantor or the Lenders or any right of Guarantor or the Lenders to proceed against (i) Borrower for reimbursement, or (ii) any other guarantor or any collateral security or guaranty or right of offset held by the Lenders for the payment of the Loan Indebtedness, nor shall Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from Borrower or any other guarantor in respect of payments made by Guarantor hereunder. It is expressly understood that the agreements of Guarantor set forth above constitute additional and cumulative benefits given to the Lenders for their security and as an inducement for their extension of credit to Borrower. -5-

11. Any amounts received by a Lender from any source on account of any indebtedness may be applied by such Lender toward the payment of such indebtedness, and in such order of application, as a Lender may from time to time elect. 12. Guarantor hereby submits to personal jurisdiction in the State of Ohio for the enforcement of this Guaranty and waives any and all personal rights to object to such jurisdiction for the purposes of litigation to enforce this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts having jurisdiction in the State of Ohio in any action, suit, or proceeding which the Administrative Agent or a Lender may at any time wish to file in connection with this Guaranty or any related matter. Guarantor hereby agrees that an action, suit, or proceeding to enforce this Guaranty may be brought in any state or federal court having jurisdiction in the State of Ohio and hereby waives any objection which Guarantor may have to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit, or proceeding in any such court; provided, however, that the provisions of this Paragraph shall not be deemed to preclude the Administrative Agent or a Lender from filing any such action, suit, or proceeding in any other appropriate forum. 13.
