D. Owner has guaranteed to Bank the full and prompt payment and performance by Authority of all of Authority's obligations under the Bond pursuant to a Guaranty Agreement dated as of December 1, 2010 (the"Guaranty Agreement") between Owner and Bank. E. The Guaranty Agreement is secured by, among other things, a Mortgage of Real Estate and Security Agreement dated as of December 1, 2010 and recorded in the Clerk of Court, Pinellas County Florida in Official Records Book 17129, Page 1391 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, including the amendment described below, the"Bank Security Instrument") covering real property of Owner adjacent to the Property. F. The Deed contains certain reversionary rights, restrictions and other limitations which the Bank has requested be modified before the Bank extends the lien of the Bank's Security Instrument to cover the Property. The City an OvYner have executed and recorded a Deed Modification Agreement (the"Deed Modification") dated -L, 2011 and recorded in the Public Records of Pinellas County in O.R. Book 7 S , Page , S' pursuant to which certain modifications have been made to the reversionary rights, restrictions and limitations of the Deed.

CHAR2\1298254v7 -1- G. It is a condition to Bank providing the tax-exempt financing under the Bond to Owner that the lien of the Bank Security Instrument shall be extended to cover the Property and that such lien shall at all times be prior and senior to the Restrictions and Limitations.

Agreement Therefore, the parties agree as follows: 1. City hereby subordinates in favor of Bank the Restrictions and Limitations and does hereby expressly acknowledge the priority of the liens and security interests of the Bank Security Instrument over the Restrictions and Limitations and further agrees that the liens and security interests of the Bank Security Instrument shall unconditionally be and remain at all times a lien or charge on the Property prior and superior to the Restrictions and Limitations. 2. City understands that Bank would not purchase the Bond, advance proceeds of the Bond to or for the benefit of the Owner or enter into the Secured Obligations without this Agreement and that Bank is taking such actions in reliance upon, and in consideration of, the subordination and agreements provided in this Agreement. 3. City agrees and acknowledges that the provisions of the Bank Security Instrument and the Secured Obligations do not cause a default or violation on the part of the Owner under the Deed. City consents to the execution, delivery and performance by the Owner of the Bank Security Instrument and the grant of the liens and security interests under the Bank Security Instrument to secure the Secured Obligations, as the same may be amended from time to time. 4. The Owner agrees to use the proceeds of the Bond to finance improvements to the Property and adjacent real property owned by the Owner as provided in the Bond Purchase Agreement. City agrees and acknowledges that Bank, in making disbursements of the proceeds of the Bond, is under no obligation or duty to, nor has Bank represented that it will, see to the application of such proceeds by the person or persons to whom Bank disburses such proceeds and any application or use of such proceeds shall not defeat the subordination herein made in whole or in part. 5. City shall give Bank notice of any default by Owner under the Deed at the time such notice is given to Owner, and agrees to deliver to Bank copies of all further notices to Owner relating to such default. 6. As long as the Bond and the Secured Obligations are outstanding, City will not take any action to enforce the Restrictions and Limitations on the Property against the Bank or its successors and assigns, and the City will not sell or otherwise transfer its reversionary interest in the Property. The Restrictions and Limitations shall continue in effect and be binding on the Owner and, in the event of a default by the Owner under the Restrictions and Limitations, the City may enforce its remedies available against the Owner for such default; provided that(x) the exercise of any such remedies shall be subject and subordinate to the Secured Obligations and the Bank Security Instrument and (y)the reversionary rights of the City shall be further subject to the following: the reversionary rights of the City shall not be effective in any manner unless (i)the City has repaid or caused to be repaid the outstanding principal, interest and other amounts owing to the Bank by the Owner under the Bond, the Guaranty Agreement and Related Documents or(ii) the Bank has consented in writing to the reversion of the Property to the City, such written consent to be effective when recorded in the Public Records of Pinellas County in which the Deed is recorded.

The City agrees that in the event of any foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure in connection with realization on the Property under the Bank Security Instrument, the transferee of the Property shall take title to the Property free and clear of the Restrictions and Limitations. 8. Notwithstanding the above, in the event(i) a default by the Owner or its successors and assigns occurs under the Bank Security Instrument which is not waived or cured to the satisfaction of the Bank and (ii)following such default the Bank determines to commence action to foreclose on the Property under the Bank Security Instrument or to request a deed in lieu of foreclosure from the Owner, then the Bank shall provide the City with written notice of its determination to commence such action or make such request(such notice a"Default Notice"). The City shall, for a period of sixty (60) days following the date of delivery of the Default Notice, have the right to either(1) acquire from Bank or its successors and assigns all of the Bank's right, title and interest in the Bond and Guaranty Agreement at a purchase price equal to the outstanding balance of principal, interest and other amounts due under the Bond and Guaranty Agreement on the date of such acquisition or(2) receive a deed in lieu of foreclosure from the Owner(which the Owner, at the direction of the Bank, agrees to provide) upon payment by the City to the Bank of a purchase price equal to the outstanding balance of principal, interest and other amounts due under the Bond and Guaranty Agreement on the date of such deed in lieu of foreclosure to be applied against such indebtedness. The rights of the City under this Section 8 shall terminate on the date sixty(60) days following the delivery to the City of the Default Notice. 9. The Owner agrees that,without the prior written consent of the City, it will not grant any other liens or encumbrances secured by the Property, other than the Bank Security Instrument. The Bank agrees that(i) the Secured Obligations are not revolving obligations, (ii) no more than $8,600,000 in principal will be advanced under the Secured Obligations (provided that, after a default under the Secured Obligations, the Bank may advance additional amounts necessary to protect and preserve the Property as provided by the Guaranty Agreement, the Bank Security Instrument and the Related Documents), and (iii) that amounts repaid by the Owner on the Secured Obligations will not be re-advanced or re-loaned by the Bank to the Owner. 10. City acknowledges that this Agreement shall extend to and benefit the successors, assigns and transferees of Bank. 11. This Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement.
