ARTICLE 2

THE LOAN

Section 2.1 The Loan.

2.1.1 Agreement to Lend and Borrow. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender shall make the Loan to Borrower and Borrower shall accept the Loan from Lender on the Closing Date.

2.1.2 Single Disbursement to Borrower. Borrower shall receive only one borrowing hereunder in respect of the Loan and any amount borrowed and repaid hereunder in respect of the Loan may not be reborrowed.

2.1.3 The Note. The Loan shall be evidenced by that certain Promissory Note of even date herewith, in the stated principal amount of FIFTY-FIVE MILLION and No/100 Dollars ($55,000,000.00) executed by Borrower and payable to the order of Lender in evidence of the Loan (as the same may hereafter be amended, supplemented, restated, increased, extended or consolidated from time to time, the “Note”) and shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents.

2.1.4 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use proceeds of the Loan to (i) acquire the Property, (ii) pay all past-due Taxes, Insurance Premiums, Common Charges, Common Charges Insurance Premiums and Other Charges, if any, in respect of the Property, (iii) make initial deposits of the Reserve Funds, (iv) pay costs and expenses incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan, and (v) to the extent any proceeds remain after satisfying clauses (i) through (iv) above, for such lawful purpose as Borrower shall designate.

 

22


Section 2.2 Interest Rate.

2.2.1 Interest Rate. Interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance shall accrue throughout the Term at the Interest Rate.

2.2.2 Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Outstanding Principal Balance and, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, all other portions of the Debt, shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due or such Default shall have occurred without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein. Interest at the Default Rate shall be paid immediately upon demand, which demand may be made as frequently as Lender shall elect, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law.

2.2.3 Interest Calculation. Interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance shall be calculated by multiplying (A) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (B) a daily rate based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year (that is, the Interest Rate expressed as an annual rate divided by 360) by (C) the Outstanding Principal Balance. The accrual period for calculating interest due on each Monthly Payment Date shall be the Interest Period immediately prior to such Monthly Payment Date.

2.2.4 Usury Savings. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be required to pay interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance at a rate which could subject 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 other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate 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 from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

Section 2.3 Loan Payments.

2.3.1 Payments. On the date hereof, Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid Outstanding Principal Balance from the Closing Date through and including January 5, 2012 (the “Initial Interest Period”). On February 6, 2012 and each Monthly Payment Date thereafter during the Term, Borrower shall make a payment of principal and interest equal to the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount. The Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and the balance to the Outstanding Principal Balance. Borrower shall also pay to Lender all amounts required in respect of Reserve Funds as set forth in Article 6 hereof.

2.3.2 Payments Generally. After the Initial Interest Period, each interest accrual period thereafter (each, an “Interest Period”) shall commence on the sixth (6th) day of each calendar month during the Term and shall end on and include the fifth (5th) day of the next occurring calendar month. For purposes of making payments hereunder, but not for purposes of calculating interest accrual periods, if the day on which such payment is due is not a Business

 

23


Day, then amounts due on such date shall be due on the immediately preceding Business Day. Lender shall have the right from time to time, in its sole discretion, upon not less than ten (10) days prior written notice to Borrower, to change the Monthly Payment Date to a different calendar day and, if requested by Lender, Borrower shall promptly execute an amendment to this Agreement to evidence such change; provided, however, that if Lender shall have elected to change the Monthly Payment Date as aforesaid, Lender shall have the option, but not the obligation, to adjust the Interest Period accordingly. With respect to payments of principal due on the Maturity Date, interest shall be payable at the Interest Rate, through and including the day immediately preceding such Maturity Date. All amounts due pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim, defense or any other deduction whatsoever.

2.3.3 Payment on Maturity Date. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the Outstanding Principal Balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.

2.3.4 Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or any other sum due under the Loan Documents (other than the Outstanding Principal Balance due and payable on the Maturity Date) is not paid by Borrower on the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by law.

2.3.5 Method and Place of Payment.

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments and prepayments under this Agreement and the Note shall be made to Lender not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds at Lender’s office or at such other place as Lender shall from time to time designate, and any funds received by Lender after such time shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be the immediately preceding Business Day.

(c) All payments required to be made by Borrower hereunder or under the Note or the other Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of, and without deduction for, any setoff, claim or counterclaim and shall be made irrespective of any defense thereto.

Section 2.4 Prepayments.

2.4.1 Prepayments. Except as otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall not have the right to prepay the Loan in whole or in part prior to the Stated Maturity Date.

 

24


2.4.2 Defeasance.

(a) Conditions to Defeasance. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any time after the date which is (A) two (2) years after the “startup day,” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code, of the final “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” established within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code, that holds any note that evidences all or any portion of the Loan or (B) three (3) years after the date hereof, whichever shall earlier occur (the “Defeasance Lockout Expiration Date”), Borrower may cause the release of the Property (in whole but not in part) from the Lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents upon the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice shall be given to Lender specifying a date (the “Release Date”) on which the Defeasance Collateral is to be delivered, such Release Date to occur only on a Monthly Payment Date;

(ii) all accrued and unpaid interest and all other sums due under the Note and under the other Loan Documents up to the Release Date, including, without limitation, all costs and expenses incurred by Lender or its agents in connection with such release (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses incurred by attorneys and accountants in connection with the review of the proposed Defeasance Collateral and the preparation of the Defeasance Security Agreement and related documentation), shall be paid in full on or prior to the Release Date; and

(iii) Borrower shall deliver to Lender on or prior to the Release Date:

(A) an amount equal to that which is sufficient to purchase U.S. Obligations that provide for payments (1) on or prior to, but as close as possible to and including, all successive scheduled Monthly Payment Dates after the Release Date through the Stated Maturity Date, and (2) in amounts equal to or greater than the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount through and including the Stated Maturity Date together with payment in full of the Outstanding Principal Balance as of the Stated Maturity Date (the “Defeasance Collateral”), each of which shall be duly endorsed by the holder thereof as directed by Lender or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form and substance wholly satisfactory to Lender (including, without limitation, such instruments as may be required by the depository institution holding such securities to effectuate book-entry transfers and pledges through the book-entry facilities of such institution) in order to create a first priority security interest therein in favor of the Lender in conformity with all applicable state and federal laws governing granting of such security interests;

(B) a pledge and security agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion, creating a first priority security interest in favor of Lender in the Defeasance Collateral (the “Defeasance Security Agreement”), which shall provide, among other things, that any payments generated by the Defeasance Collateral shall be paid directly to Lender and applied by Lender in satisfaction of all amounts then due and payable hereunder and any excess received by Lender from the Defeasance Collateral over the amounts payable by Borrower hereunder or under the Note shall be refunded to Borrower promptly after each Monthly Payment Date;

 

25

(D) an opinion of counsel for Borrower in form and substance and delivered by counsel satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion stating, among other things, that (1) Lender has a perfected first priority security interest in the Defeasance Collateral and that the Defeasance Security Agreement is enforceable against Borrower in accordance with its terms; and (2) that any REMIC Trust formed pursuant to a Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a “real estate mortgage investment conduit” within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code as a result of such defeasance;

(E) at Lender’s request, a Rating Agency Confirmation from each applicable Rating Agency or each such Rating Agency as is required by Lender;

(F) a certificate from a firm of independent public accountants acceptable to Lender certifying that the Defeasance Collateral is sufficient to satisfy the provisions of Section 2.4.2(a)(iii)(A) above;

(H) in connection with the conditions set forth above in this Section 2.4.2(a)(iii), Borrower hereby appoints Lender as its agent and attorney in fact for the purpose of using the amounts delivered pursuant to Section 2.4.2(a)(iii)(A) above to purchase the Defeasance Collateral.

(b) Successor Borrower. Upon the defeasance of the Loan under this Section 2.4.2, Borrower may, or at option of Lender shall, assign all its Obligations, together with the pledged Defeasance Collateral, to a successor entity designated by Lender in its sole discretion or, at the option of Lender, designated by Borrower and approved by Lender (in each case, the “Successor Borrower”). Lender shall have the right to establish or designate the Successor Borrower and to purchase, or cause to be purchased, the Defeasance Collateral (the “Defeasance Rights and Obligations”), which rights may be exercised in Lender’s sole discretion and shall be retained by the Lender named herein notwithstanding the transfer or securitization of the Loan. Such successor entity shall execute an assumption agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion pursuant to which it shall assume Borrower’s Obligations and the Defeasance Security Agreement. As conditions to such assignment and assumption, Borrower shall (i) deliver to Lender an opinion of counsel in form and substance and delivered by counsel satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion stating, among other things, that such assumption agreement is enforceable against Borrower and such successor entity in accordance with its terms and that the Note, the Defeasance Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as so assumed, are enforceable against such successor entity in accordance with their respective terms, and (ii) pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender or its agents in connection with such assignment and assumption (including, without limitation, the review of the proposed transferee and the preparation of the assumption agreement and related documentation). Additionally, Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Successor Borrower, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred in connection therewith. In connection with a

 

26


transfer of the Defeasance Collateral to the Successor Borrower, Borrower shall, as a condition to such defeasance, deliver or cause to be delivered a non-consolidation opinion in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies. Upon such assumption, Borrower shall be relieved of its Obligations hereunder, under the other Loan Documents and under the Defeasance Security Agreement other than those Obligations which are specifically intended to survive the termination, satisfaction or assignment of this Agreement or the exercise of Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder.

(c) Appointment as Attorney in Fact. Upon the defeasance of the Loan in accordance with clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 2.4.2, Borrower shall have no further right to prepay the Note pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 2.4.2 or otherwise. In connection with the conditions set forth in this Section 2.4.2, Borrower hereby appoints Lender as its agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of purchasing the Defeasance Collateral with funds provided by Borrower. Borrower shall pay any and all expenses incurred in the purchase of the Defeasance Collateral and any revenue, documentary stamp or intangible taxes or any other tax or charge due in connection with the transfer of the Note or otherwise required to accomplish the agreements of this Section 2.4.2.

2.4.3 Open Prepayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and provided that Borrower shall deliver to Lender a Prepayment Notice, Borrower may prepay the entire principal balance of the Note and any other amounts outstanding under the Note, this Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents, without payment of the Prepayment Fee or any other prepayment premium, penalty or fee, on any Business Day on or after the Open Prepayment Date. If such prepayment is not made on a Monthly Payment Date, Borrower shall also pay interest that would have accrued on the principal balance of the Note to, but not including, the next Monthly Payment Date.

2.4.4 Mandatory Prepayments. If Lender is not obligated to make Net Proceeds available to Borrower for Restoration, on the next occurring Monthly Payment Date following the date on which (a) Lender actually receives any Net Proceeds, and (b) Lender has determined that such Net Proceeds shall be applied against the Debt, Borrower shall prepay, or authorize Lender to apply Net Proceeds as a prepayment of, the Debt in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Proceeds. Except during an Event of Default, such Net Proceeds shall be applied by Lender as follows in the following order of priority: First, to all amounts (other than principal and interest) then due and payable under the Loan Documents); Second; accrued and unpaid interest at the Interest Rate; and Third, to principal. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, no Prepayment Fee or any other prepayment premium, penalty or fee shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.4.4. Any partial principal prepayment under this Section 2.4.4 shall be applied to the last payments of principal due under the Loan.

2.4.5 Prepayments After Default.

(a) If, during the continuance of an Event of Default, payment of all or any part of the Debt is tendered by Borrower and accepted by Lender or is otherwise recovered by Lender (including through application of any Reserve Funds), such tender or recovery shall be deemed to be a voluntary prepayment by Borrower in violation of the prohibition against prepayment set forth in Section 2.4.1 hereof, and Borrower shall pay, as part of the Debt, all of: (i) all accrued interest at the Interest Rate and, if such tender and acceptance is not made on a

 

27


Monthly Payment Date, interest that would have accrued on the Debt to, but not including, the next Monthly Payment Date, (ii) an amount equal to the Prepayment Fee, and (iii) in the event the payment occurs on or prior to the Defeasance Lockout Expiration Date, the Liquidated Damages Amount.

(b) IF DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, ALL OR ANY PART OF THE LOAN IS REPAID ON OR PRIOR TO THE DEFEASANCE LOCKOUT EXPIRATION DATE, THEN BORROWER SHALL PAY TO LENDER, AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND NOT AS A PENALTY, AND IN ADDITION TO ANY AND ALL OTHER SUMS AND FEES PAYABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO FIVE PERCENT (5%) OF THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT BEING REPAID (THE “LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AMOUNT”).

Section 2.5 Release of Property.

2.5.1 Release Upon Defeasance. If Borrower has elected to defease the Note and the requirements of Section 2.4.2 have been satisfied, the Property shall be released from the Lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and the Defeasance Collateral pledged pursuant to the Defeasance Security Agreement shall constitute the only collateral which shall secure the Note and all other Obligations.

3.1.1 Organization; Special Purpose. Borrower is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing with full power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business, and is duly qualified and in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of its property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, and Borrower has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by it, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all the transactions contemplated hereby.

3.1.2 Proceedings; Enforceability. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Borrower and constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The Loan Documents are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense by Borrower or Guarantor including the defense of usury, nor would the operation of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Loan Documents unenforceable, and none of Borrower or Guarantor have asserted any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense with respect thereto.

3.1.3 No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Borrower and the performance of its Obligations hereunder and thereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which Borrower is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of Borrower’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to Borrower, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of Borrower’s assets or property (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents).

3.1.4 Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against Borrower, Guarantor, the Manager or the Property in any court or by or before any other Governmental Authority which, if adversely determined, might materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or business of Borrower (including the ability of Borrower to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), Guarantor, Manager or the condition or ownership of the Property.

3.1.5 Agreements. Borrower is not a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any restriction which might materially and adversely affect Borrower or the Property, or Borrower’s business, properties or assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise.

3.1.7 Property; Title.

(a) Borrower has good, marketable and insurable fee simple and leasehold title to the real property comprising part of the Property and good title to the balance of the Property owned by it, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage, when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements required to be filed in connection therewith, will create (i) a valid, first priority, perfected Lien on Borrower’s interest in the Property, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, and (ii) perfected security interests in and to, and perfected collateral assignments of, all personalty (including the Leases), all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances. There are no mechanics’, materialman’s or other similar Liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or materials affecting the Property which are or may be Liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the Lien of the Mortgage. None of the Permitted Encumbrances, individually or in the aggregate, (a) materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage and this Agreement, (b) materially and adversely affect the value of the Property, (c) impair the use or operations of the Property (as currently used), or (d) impair Borrower’s ability to pay its Obligations in a timely manner.

(e) There are no pending or proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or otherwise affecting the Property, nor are there any contemplated improvements to the Property that may result in such special or other assessments.

3.1.8 ERISA; No Plan Assets. As of the date hereof and throughout the Term (i) Borrower and the Commonly Controlled Entities do not sponsor, are not obligated to contribute to, and are not themselves an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, (ii) none of the assets of Borrower constitutes or will constitute “plan assets” of one or more such plans within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101, (iii) Borrower is not and will not be a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA, and (iv) transactions by or with Borrower are not and will not be subject to state statutes regulating investment of, and fiduciary obligations with respect to, governmental plans.

3.1.9 Compliance. Borrower and the Property (including, but not limited to the Improvements) and the use thereof comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements, including parking, building and zoning and land use laws, ordinances, regulations and codes. Borrower is not in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority, the violation of which might materially adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or business of Borrower. Borrower has not committed any act which may give any Governmental Authority the right to cause Borrower to forfeit the Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrower’s Obligations under any of the Loan Documents. The Property is used exclusively for office space, data center and parking garage and other appurtenant and related uses. In the event that all or any part of the Improvements are destroyed or damaged, said Improvements can be legally reconstructed to their condition prior to such damage or destruction, and thereafter exist for the same use without violating any zoning or other ordinances applicable thereto and without the necessity of obtaining any variances or special permits. No legal proceedings are pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened with respect to the zoning of the Property. Neither the zoning nor any other right to construct, use or operate the Property is in any way dependent upon or related to any property other than the Property. All certifications, permits, licenses and approvals, including without limitation, certificates of completion and occupancy permits required of Borrower for the legal use, occupancy and operation of the Property for its current use (collectively, the “Licenses”), have been obtained and are in full force and effect.

All public utilities necessary or convenient to the full use and enjoyment of the Property are located in the public right-of-way abutting the Property, and all such utilities are connected so as to serve the Property without passing over other property absent a valid irrevocable easement. All roads necessary for the use of the Property for its current purpose have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all Governmental Authorities.

3.1.12 Assignment of Leases. The Assignment of Leases creates a valid assignment of, or a valid security interest in, certain rights under the Leases, subject only to a license granted to Borrower to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under the Leases, including the right to operate the Property.

All of the Improvements which were included in determining the appraised value of the Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Property, and no easements or other encumbrances affecting the Property encroach upon any of the Improvements, so as to affect the value or marketability of the Property, except those which are set forth on the Survey and insured against by the Title Insurance Policy.

The Leases identified on Schedule I are in full force and effect and there are no defaults thereunder by either party beyond any applicable notice or cure period, and there are no conditions that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute defaults thereunder. The copies of the Leases delivered to Lender are true and complete, and there are no oral agreements with respect thereto. No Rent (including security deposits) has been paid more than one (1) month in advance of its due date (except for Rents received under the City of Atlanta Lease, which Rent is paid to Borrower on an annual basis).

Borrower has delivered to Lender a true, correct and complete list of all security deposits made by Tenants at the Property which have not been applied (including accrued interest thereon), all of which are held by Borrower in accordance with the terms of the applicable Lease and applicable Legal Requirements. Each Tenant under a Major Lease is free from bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings. No Tenant under any Lease (or any sublease) is an Affiliate of Borrower. The Tenants under the Leases are open for business and paying full, unabated rent. There are no brokerage fees or commissions due and payable in connection with the leasing of space at the Property, except as has been previously disclosed to Lender in writing, and no such fees or commissions will become due and payable in the future in connection with the Leases, including by reason of any extension of such Lease or expansion of the space leased thereunder, except as has previously been disclosed to Lender in writing.

The fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets is, and immediately following the making of the Loan, will be, greater than Borrower’s probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower’s assets do not and, immediately following the making of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur Indebtedness and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such Indebtedness and liabilities as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by Borrower and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of the obligations of Borrower). No petition in bankruptcy has been filed against Borrower or any constituent Person of Borrower, and neither Borrower nor any constituent Person of Borrower has ever made an assignment for the benefit of creditors or taken advantage of any insolvency act for the benefit of debtors. Neither Borrower nor any of its constituent Persons are contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of Borrower’s assets or properties, and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it or such constituent Persons.

(a) Borrower shall:

(i) pay all rents, additional rents and other sums required to be paid by Borrower, as tenant under and pursuant to the provisions of the Ground Lease, as and when such rent or other charge is payable,

 

53


(ii) diligently perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Ground Lease on the part of Borrower, as tenant thereunder, to be performed and observed, at least three (3) days prior to the expiration of any applicable grace period therein provided; and

(b) Borrower shall not, without the prior consent of Lender, surrender the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease or terminate or cancel the Ground Lease or modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Ground Lease, in any material respect, either orally or in writing, and Borrower hereby assigns to Lender, as further security for the payment and performance of the Obligations and for the performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Mortgage, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, all of the rights, privileges and prerogatives of Borrower, as tenant under the Ground Lease, to surrender the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease or to terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Ground Lease in any material respect, and any such surrender of the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease or termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of the Ground Lease in any material respect without the prior consent of Lender shall be void and of no force and effect.

If Lender shall make any payment or perform any act or take action in accordance with the preceding sentence, Lender will notify Borrower of the making of any such payment, the performance of any such act or the taking of any such action. In any such event, subject to the rights of Tenants, subtenants and other occupants under the Leases or of parties to any REA, Lender and any Person designated as Lender’s agent by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any reasonable time, on reasonable notice (which may be given verbally) and from time to time for the purpose of taking any such action. Lender may pay and expend such sums of money as Lender reasonably deems necessary for any such purpose and upon so doing shall be subrogated to any and all rights of the landlord under the Ground Lease. Borrower hereby agrees to pay to Lender within five (5) days after demand, all such sums so paid and expended by Lender, together with interest thereon from the day of such payment at the Default Rate. All sums so paid and expended by Lender and the interest thereon shall be secured by the legal operation and effect of the Mortgage.

 

54


(d) If the lessor under the Ground Lease shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice of default sent by said lessor to Borrower, as tenant under the Ground Lease, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender, in good faith, in reliance thereon. Borrower shall exercise each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of the Ground Lease upon demand by Lender made at any time within one (1) year prior to the last day upon which any such option may be exercised, and if Borrower shall fail to do so, Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact to exercise any such option in the name of and upon behalf of the Borrower, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest. Borrower will not subordinate or consent to the subordination of the Ground Lease to any mortgage, security deed, lease or other interest on or in the landlord’s interest in all or any part of the Property, unless, in each such case, the written consent of Lender shall have been first had and obtained.

(b) Borrower shall promptly pay, when due and payable all charges, dues and assessments imposed on the Unit owner under the Condominium Documents, including without limitation, any Common Charges.

Lender and any person designated as Lender’s agent by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any reasonable time, on reasonable notice and from time to time for the purpose of taking any such action. If Borrower fails to pay the Common Charges before the same are delinquent, Lender may pay the same and such amounts shall be added to the Debt and shall bear interest at the Default Rate until paid. All sums so paid and expended by Lender and the interest thereon shall be secured by the Mortgage.

(c) Without Lender’s prior consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Borrower shall not (i) modify, change, supplement, alter, amend in any material respect or terminate any of the Condominium Documents, (ii) waive or release any rights thereunder or (iii) consent to any material increase in its obligations thereunder. Borrower hereby assigns to Lender, as further security for the payment of the Debt and for the performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Mortgage and this Agreement, all of the rights, privileges and prerogatives of Borrower, to modify, change, supplement, alter, amend or terminate any of the Condominium Documents as provided above and any modification, change, supplement, alteration, amendment or termination of any of the Condominium Documents in violation of the foregoing without the prior consent of Lender shall be void and of no force and effect. Borrower may make any immaterial modification, change, supplement, alteration, or amendment to the Condominium Documents without Lender’s consent unless such an immaterial modification, change, supplement, alteration, amendment could reasonably be expected to (A) adversely affect Borrower or the Property, or Borrower’s business, properties, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, (B) adversely affect the rights of Lender to foreclose the Lien of the Mortgage or exercise its other rights under the Loan Documents or (C) otherwise impair the Lien of the Mortgage.

 

55


(d) In each and every case in which, under the provisions of the Condominium Documents, the consent or the vote of the “Unit Owners” or Board of Directors (as defined below) is required, Borrower shall not vote or give such consent or allow the members on the Board of Directors appointed by Borrower to vote or give such consent, in any manner that could impair the Lien of any Mortgage or the security therefor without, in each and every case, the prior written consent of Lender.

(e) Borrower shall cause each of the members of the Board of Directors appointed by Borrower to execute and deliver to Lender an undated conditional resignation (a “Conditional Resignation”) of each such member, whereby each such member tenders his/her resignation from the Board of Directors and instructs the Board of Directors that the successor members shall be designated by Lender, effective upon written notice from Lender to the Board of Directors that an Event of Default has occurred; it being understood and agreed to that such notice from the Lender shall be conclusive evidence that an Event of Default has occurred and the Board of Directors may rely on such notice from Lender without any further inquiry or investigation. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the acceleration of the Loan, Lender may, by notice to Borrower, tender any Conditional Resignation, now or hereafter delivered in connection with the Loan to the Board of Directors, whereupon the resignation of any such member shall become effective and successor members to the Board of Directors shall be designated by Lender.

(f) Borrower will not remove or replace any of the members of the Board of Directors appointed by Borrower without the prior consent of Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that such consent may be conditioned upon the delivery of a Conditional Resignation by such replacement member.

(f) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate and all premiums incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and until paid shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

(g) In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Obligations, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

(h) The property insurance, public liability insurance and rental loss and/or business interruption insurance required under Sections 5.1.1(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) above shall cover perils of terrorism and acts of terrorism (or at least not specifically exclude same) and Borrower shall maintain property insurance, public liability insurance and rental loss and/or business interruption insurance for loss resulting from perils and acts of terrorism on terms (including amounts) consistent with those required under Sections 5.1.1(a)(i), (ii), and (iii) above (or at least not specifically excluding same) at all times during the term of the Loan.

(i) Notwithstanding anything in subsection (a)(i) above to the contrary, Borrower shall be required to obtain and maintain coverage in its property insurance Policy (or by a separate Policy) against loss or damage by terrorist acts in an amount equal to 100% of the “Full Replacement Cost” of the Property; provided that such coverage is available. In the event that such coverage with respect to terrorist acts is not included as part of the “all risk” property policy required by subsection (a)(i) above, Borrower shall, nevertheless be required to obtain coverage for terrorism (as standalone coverage) in an amount equal to 100% of the “Full Replacement Cost” of the Property plus the rental loss and/or business interruption coverage under clause (a)(iii) above; provided that such coverage is available. Borrower shall obtain the coverage required under this clause (i) from a carrier which otherwise satisfies the rating criteria specified in Section 5.1.2 below (a “Qualified Carrier”) or in the event that such coverage is not available from a Qualified Carrier, Borrower shall obtain such coverage from the highest rated insurance company providing such coverage.

ability rating of “A” or better by S&P (and the equivalent by any other Rating Agency), with no carrier below “BBB” (and the equivalent by any other Rating Agency), and a rating of A:X or better in the current Best’s Insurance Reports; (ii) shall, with respect to all property insurance policies, name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as their interest may appear as the Lender and Mortgagee; (iii) shall, with respect to all property insurance policies and rental loss and/or business interruption insurance policies, contain a Standard Mortgagee Clause and a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement, or their equivalents, naming Lender as the person to whom all payments made by such insurance company shall be paid; (iv) shall, with respect to all liability policies, name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as an additional insured; (v) shall contain a waiver of subrogation against Lender; (vi) shall contain such provisions as Lender deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its interest including endorsements providing (A) that neither Borrower, Lender nor any other party shall be a co-insurer under said Policies, (B) that Lender shall receive at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any modification, reduction or cancellation, and (C) for a deductible per loss of an amount not more than that which is customarily maintained by prudent owners of properties with a standard of operation and maintenance comparable to and in the general vicinity of the Property, but in no event in excess of an amount reasonably acceptable to Lender; and (vii) shall be satisfactory in form and substance to Lender and shall be approved by Lender as to amounts, form, risk coverage, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. No insurance policy required hereunder shall include any so called “terrorist exclusion” or similar exclusion or exception to insurance coverage relating to the acts of terrorist groups or individuals; provided that, for so long TRIA is in effect, Lender shall accept terrorism insurance with coverage against acts which are “certified” within the meaning of TRIA. In addition to the insurance coverages described in Section 5.1.1 above, Borrower shall obtain such other insurance as may from time to time be reasonably required by Lender in order to protect its interests. Certified copies of the Policies shall be delivered to Lender at the address below (or to such other address or Person as Lender shall designate from time to time by notice to Borrower) on the date hereof with respect to the current Policies and within thirty (30) days after the effective date thereof with respect to all renewal Policies:

Borrower shall pay the Insurance Premiums annually in advance as the same become due and payable and shall furnish to Lender evidence of the renewal of each of the Policies with receipts for the payment of the Insurance Premiums or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender (provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to pay such Insurance Premiums nor furnish such evidence of payment to Lender in the event that the amounts required to pay such Insurance Premiums have been deposited into the Insurance Account pursuant to Section 6.4 hereof). Within thirty (30) days after request by Lender, Borrower shall obtain such increases in the amounts of coverage required hereunder as may be reasonably requested by Lender, taking into consideration changes in the value of money over time, changes in liability laws, changes in prudent customs and practices.

Section 5.2 Casualty. If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice thereof to Lender. Following the occurrence of a Casualty, Borrower, regardless of whether insurance proceeds are available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Property in accordance with Legal Requirements to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such damage or destruction. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. In addition, Lender may participate in any settlement discussions with any insurance companies (and shall approve any final settlement) (i) if an Event of Default is continuing or (ii) with respect to any Casualty in which the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing the Restoration are equal to or greater than Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000) and Borrower shall deliver to Lender all instruments required by Lender to permit such participation. Except as set forth in the foregoing sentence, any Insurance Proceeds in connection with any Casualty (whether or not Lender elects to settle and adjust the claim or Borrower settles such claim) shall be due and payable solely to Lender and held by Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event Borrower or any party other than Lender is a payee on any check representing Insurance Proceeds with respect to any Casualty, Borrower shall immediately endorse, and cause all such third parties to endorse, such check payable to the order of Lender. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to endorse any such check payable to the order of Lender. Borrower hereby releases Lender from any and all liability with respect to the settlement and adjustment by Lender of any claims in respect of any Casualty.

Section 5.3 Condemnation. Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of all or any portion of the Property and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including, but not limited to, any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If the Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 5.4, whether or not an Award is available to pay the costs of such Restoration. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.

 

62


Section 5.4 Restoration. The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration:

(a) If the Net Proceeds shall be less than Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000) and provided no Event of Default is continuing, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt, provided that all of the conditions set forth in Section 5.4(b)(i) are met and Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000), the Net Proceeds will be held by Lender and Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4. The term “Net Proceeds” for purposes of this Section 5.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender pursuant to Section 5.1.1 (a)(i), (iv), and (vi) and Section 5.1.1(h) as a result of such damage or destruction, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same (“Insurance Proceeds”), or (ii) the net amount of the Award, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same (“Condemnation Proceeds”), whichever the case may be.

(i) The Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration upon the determination of Lender, in its sole discretion, that the following conditions are met:

(A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(B) (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than thirty percent (30%) of the total floor area of the Improvements on the Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than fifteen percent (15%) of the land constituting the Property is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Property, and no portion of the Improvements is located on such land;

(C) Leases demising in the aggregate a percentage amount equal to or greater than seventy-five percent (75%) of the total rentable space in the Property which has been demised under executed and delivered Leases in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, shall remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration without abatement of rent beyond the time required for Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, and will make all necessary repairs and restorations thereto that are not being made by Borrower as part of the Restoration at their sole cost and expense;

(D) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion;

(E) Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note, which will be incurred with respect to the Property as a result of the occurrence of any

 

63


such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii), if applicable, or (3) by other funds of Borrower;

(F) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) the date six (6) months prior to the Stated Maturity Date, (2) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Lease, (3) such time as may be required under applicable Legal Requirements or (4) six (6) months prior to the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(iii);

(G) the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements;

(I) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the loss of access to the Property or the related Improvements;

(J) the Restoration DSCR, after giving effect to the Restoration, shall be equal to or greater than 1.61 to 1.0;

(K) the Loan to Value Ratio after giving effect to the Restoration, shall be equal to or less than 58.0%;

(L) Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a signed detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower’s architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be acceptable to Lender; and

(M) the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender are sufficient in Lender’s discretion to cover the cost of the Restoration.

(ii) The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender in the Casualty and Condemnation Account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, less retainage, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.

 

64


(iii) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender and an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to the approval of Lender and the Casualty Consultant. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with recovering, holding and advancing the Net Proceeds for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees and disbursements, shall be paid by Borrower.

(iv) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, less the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean, as to each contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 5.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which (i) the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that such contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of such contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, (ii) the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and (iii) Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the Lien of the Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.

(v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

 

65


(vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender (for deposit into the Casualty and Condemnation Account) before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be deposited by Lender into the Casualty and Condemnation Account and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 5.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.

(vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4(b), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, including the provisions of this Section 5.4, if the Loan is included in a REMIC Trust and, immediately following a release of any portion of the Lien of the Mortgage following a Casualty or Condemnation (but taking into account any proposed Restoration of the remaining Property), the ratio of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to the value of the remaining Property is greater than 125% (such value to be determined, in Lender’s sole discretion, by any commercially reasonable method permitted to a REMIC Trust; and which shall exclude the value of personal property or going concern value, if any), the Outstanding Principal Balance must be paid down by an amount equal to the least of the following amounts: (i) the net Award (after payment of Lender’s costs and expenses and any other fees and expenses that have been approved by Lender) or the net Insurance Proceeds (after payment of Lender’s costs and expenses and any other fees and expenses that have been approved by Lender), as the case may be, or (ii) a “qualified amount” as that term is defined in the IRS Revenue Procedure 2010-30, as the same may be amended, replaced, supplemented or modified from time to time, unless Lender receives an opinion of counsel that if such amount is not paid, the applicable Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a REMIC Trust as a result of the related release of such portion of the Lien of the Mortgage. If and to the extent the preceding sentence applies, only such amount of the net Award or net Insurance Proceeds (as applicable), if any, in excess of the amount required to pay down the principal balance of the Loan may be released for purposes of Restoration or released to Borrower as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 5.4.

(d) All other Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 5.4(b)(vii) may be retained and applied by Lender in accordance with Section 2.4.4 hereof toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, at the discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender shall approve, in its discretion. Additionally, throughout the term of the Loan if an Event

 

66


of Default is continuing, then the Borrower shall pay to Lender, with respect to any payment of the Debt pursuant to this Section 5.4(d), an additional amount equal to the Prepayment Fee; provided, however, that if an Event of Default is not continuing, then the Prepayment Fee shall not be payable.

(e) In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage, or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if in connection with a Casualty any insurance company makes a payment under a property insurance Policy that Borrower proposes be treated as business or rental interruption insurance, then, notwithstanding any designation (or lack of designation) by the insurance company as to the purpose of such payment, as between Lender and Borrower, such payment shall not be treated as business or rental interruption Insurance Proceeds unless Borrower has demonstrated to Lender’s satisfaction that the remaining Net Proceeds that have been received from the property insurance companies are sufficient to pay 100% of the cost of the Restoration or, if such Net Proceeds are to be applied to repay the Obligations in accordance with the terms hereof, that such remaining Net Proceeds will be sufficient to satisfy the Obligations in full.

Section 5.5 Condominium Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 5, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Article 5 and the Condominium Documents with respect to the payment or application of an Award or Proceeds, the provisions of the Condominium Documents shall control; provided, however, that if the Condominium Documents are hereafter terminated, the provisions of this Section 5.5 shall automatically cease to be of any force or effect. Nothing in this Section 5.5 shall preclude Borrower’s payment obligations (if any) under Section 5.4(c) above.

ARTICLE 6

CASH MANAGEMENT AND RESERVE FUNDS

Section 6.1 Cash Management Arrangements. Borrower shall cause all Rents to be transmitted directly by non-residential Tenants of the Property into a trust account (the “Clearing Account”) established and maintained by Borrower at a local bank selected by Borrower and reasonably approved by Lender (the “Clearing Bank”) as more fully described in the Clearing Account Agreement. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, if Borrower or Manager receive any Gross Revenue from the Property, then (i) such amounts shall be deemed to be collateral for the Obligations and shall be held in trust for the benefit, and as the property, of Lender, (ii) such amounts shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of Borrower or Manager, and (iii) Borrower or Manager shall deposit such amounts in the Clearing Account within one (1) Business Day of receipt. Funds deposited into the Clearing Account shall be swept by the Clearing Bank on a daily basis into the Deposit Account and applied and disbursed in accordance with this Agreement. Funds in the Deposit Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments, as more particularly set forth in the Cash Management Agreement. Lender may also establish subaccounts of the Deposit Account which shall at all times be Eligible Accounts (and may be ledger or book entry accounts and not actual accounts) (such subaccounts are referred to herein

 

67

Borrower shall perform the repairs and other work at the Property as set forth on Schedule II (such repairs and other work hereinafter referred to as “Required Repairs”) and shall complete each of the Required Repairs on or before the respective deadline for each repair as set forth on Schedule II. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall deposit with or on behalf of Lender the amount set forth on such Schedule II as the estimated cost to complete the Required Repairs multiplied by 115% (the “Required Repairs Funds”), which Required Repairs Funds shall be transferred by Deposit Bank into an Account (the “Required Repairs Account”).

6.2.2 Release of Required Repairs Funds. Provided no Event of Default is continuing, Lender shall direct Servicer to disburse Required Repairs Funds to Borrower out of the Required Repairs Account, within twenty (20) days after the delivery by Borrower to Lender of a request therefor (but not more often than once per month), in increments of at least $10,000 (or a lesser amount if the total amount in the Required Repairs Account is less than $10,000, in which case only one disbursement of the amount remaining in the account shall be made), accompanied by the following items (which items shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender): (i) an Officer’s Certificate (A) stating that the Required Repairs (or relevant portion thereof) to be funded by the requested disbursement have been completed in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements, (B) identifying each Person that supplied materials or labor in connection with the Required Repairs to be funded by the requested disbursement, (C) stating that each such Person has been paid in full or will be paid in full upon such disbursement, or if such payment is a progress payment, that such payment represents full payment to such Person, less any applicable retention amount, for work completed through the date of the relevant invoice from such Person, (D) stating that the Required Repairs (or relevant portion thereof) to be funded have not been the subject of a previous disbursement, (E) stating that all previous disbursements of Required Repair Funds have been used to pay the previously identified Required Repairs, and (F) stating that all outstanding trade payables (other than those to be paid from the requested disbursement or those constituting Permitted Indebtedness) have been paid in full other than any applicable retention amount, (ii) as to any completed Required Repair a copy of any license, permit or other approval by any Governmental Authority required, if any, in connection with the Required Repairs and not previously delivered to Lender, (iii) copies of appropriate lien waivers (or conditional lien waivers) or other evidence of payment satisfactory to Lender, (iv) at Lender’s option, a title search for the Property indicating that the Property is free from all Liens, claims and other encumbrances not previously approved by Lender, and (v) such other evidence as Lender shall reasonably request to demonstrate that the Required Repairs to be funded by the requested disbursement have been completed (or completed to the extent of the requested payment) and are paid for or will be paid upon such disbursement to Borrower. Upon Borrower’s completion of all Required Repairs in accordance with this Section 6.2, Lender shall direct Servicer to release any remaining Required Repairs Funds, if any, in the Required Repairs Account to Borrower.

6.3.1 Deposits of Tax Funds. Borrower shall deposit with Lender (i) on the Closing Date, an amount equal to $233,780.89 and (ii) on each Monthly Payment Date, an amount equal to one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months (initially, $51,233.78), in order to accumulate sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to their respective due dates, which amounts shall be transferred into an Account (the “Tax Account”).

If the amount of the Tax Funds shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax Funds. Any Tax Funds remaining in the Tax Account after the Obligations have been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower.

Lender may increase the amount required to be maintained on deposit in the Common Charges Account to the amount Lender reasonably deems necessary to reflect any increases in the Common Charges due under the Condominium Documents.

6.12.2 Failure to Make Payments. The failure of Borrower to make all of the payments required under clauses (i) through (viii) of Section 6.12.1 in full on each Monthly Payment Date shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement; provided, however, if adequate funds are available in the Deposit Account for such payments, and Borrower is not otherwise in Default hereunder, the failure by the Deposit Bank to allocate such funds into the appropriate Accounts shall not constitute an Event of Default.

6.12.3 Application After Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 6, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender, at its option, may apply any Gross Revenue then in the possession of Lender, Servicer or Deposit Bank (including any Reserve Funds on deposit in any Cash Management Account) to the payment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Lender’s right to withdraw and apply any of the foregoing funds shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Lender under the Loan Documents.

Section 6.13 Security Interest in Reserve Funds. As security for payment of the Debt and the performance by Borrower of all other terms, conditions and provisions of the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby pledges and assigns to Lender, and grants to Lender a security interest in, all Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all Gross Revenue and in and to all payments to or monies held in the Clearing Account, the Deposit Account and Accounts created pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the “Cash Management Accounts”). Borrower hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in, and agrees to hold in trust for the benefit of Lender, all Rents in its possession prior to the (i) payment of such Gross Revenue to Lender or (ii) deposit of such Gross Revenue into the Deposit Account. Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Cash Management Account, or permit any Lien to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. This Agreement is, among other things, intended by the parties to be a security agreement for purposes of the UCC. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any sums in any Cash Management Account in any order and in any manner as Lender shall elect in Lender’s discretion without seeking the appointment of a receiver and without adversely affecting the rights of Lender to foreclose the Lien of the Mortgage or exercise its other rights under the Loan Documents. Cash Management Accounts shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. Provided no Event of Default exists, all interest which accrues on the funds in any Account (other than the Tax Account and the Insurance Account) shall accrue for the benefit of Borrower and shall be taxable to Borrower and shall be added to and disbursed in the same manner and under the same conditions as the principal sum on which said interest accrued. Upon repayment in full of the Debt, all remaining funds in the Accounts, if any, shall be promptly disbursed to Borrower.

Section 8.2 Remedies.

8.2.1 Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (vii), (viii) or (ix) of Section 8.1 above) and at any time thereafter, Lender may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, take such action, without notice or demand (and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand), that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Property, including declaring the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and the Property, including all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described in clauses (vii), (viii) or (ix) of Section 8.1 above, the Obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable in full, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

8.2.2 Remedies Cumulative. During the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Obligations shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to the Property. The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents or by equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender shall not be subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Property and the Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Obligations or the Obligations have been paid in full. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

8.2.3 Severance.

(a) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Mortgage in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Mortgage then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, including the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace

 

87


period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Mortgage to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance, Lender may foreclose the Mortgage to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Mortgage as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Mortgage to secure payment of the sums secured by the Mortgage and not previously recovered.

(b) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power.

(c) Any amounts recovered from the Property or any other collateral for the Loan after an Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents, in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.

8.2.4 Lender’s Right to Perform. If Borrower fails to perform any covenant or obligation contained herein and such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) Business Days after Borrower’s receipt of written notice thereof from Lender, without in any way limiting Lender’s right to exercise any of its rights, powers or remedies as provided hereunder, or under any of the other Loan Documents, Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, perform, or cause the performance of, such covenant or obligation, and all costs, expenses, liabilities, penalties and fines of Lender incurred or paid in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower to Lender upon demand and if not paid shall be added to the Obligations (and to the extent permitted under applicable laws, secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents) and shall bear interest thereafter at the Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation to send notice to Borrower of any such failure.

(b) Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Lender (and for purposes of this Section 9.2, Lender shall include its officers and directors) and each Person who controls the Lender within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Lender Group”), the issuer of the Securities (the “Issuer” and for purposes of this Section 9.2, Issuer shall include its officers, director and each Person who controls the Issuer within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and any placement agent or underwriter with respect to the Securitization, each of their respective officers and directors and each Person who controls the placement agent or underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Group”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which Lender, the Lender Group, the Issuer or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the information provided to Lender by Borrower and its agents, counsel and representatives, (B) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated in such information or necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (C) a breach of the representations and warranties made by Borrower in Section 3.1.31 of this Agreement (Full and Accurate Disclosure). Borrower also agrees to reimburse Lender, the Lender Group, the Issuer and/or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Lender Group, the Issuer and/or the Underwriter Group in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities. Borrower’s liability under this paragraph will be limited to Liability that arises out of, or is based upon, an untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Document or in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan, including financial statements of Borrower, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property.

 

92


This indemnification provision will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have.

(c) In connection with any Exchange Act Filing or other reports containing comparable information that is required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements, Borrower agrees to (i) indemnify Lender, the Lender Group, the Issuer and the Underwriter Group for Liabilities to which Lender, the Lender Group, the Issuer and/or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, an alleged untrue statement or alleged omission or an untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Document or in connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan, including financial statements of Borrower, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property, and (ii) reimburse Lender, the Lender Group, the Issuer and/or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Lender Group, the Issuer and/or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9.2 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9.2, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 9.2, such indemnified party shall pay for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party at the cost of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party. Without the prior written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), no indemnifying party shall settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless the indemnifying party shall have given Lender reasonable prior written notice thereof and shall have obtained an unconditional release of each indemnified party hereunder from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceedings.

 

93


(e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in Section 9.2(b) or (c) is for any reason held to be unenforceable as to an indemnified party in respect of any Liabilities (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under Section 9.2(b) or (c), the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) the Issuer’s and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.

(f) The liabilities and obligations of both Borrower and Lender under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

Section 9.3 Severance.

9.3.1 Severance Documentation. Lender, without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights hereunder, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right, at any time (whether prior to or after any sale, participation or Securitization of all or any portion of the Loan), to require the Borrower (at no material cost to Borrower) to execute and deliver “component” notes and/or modify the Loan in order to create one or more senior and subordinate notes (i.e., an A/B or A/B/C structure) and/or one or more additional components of the Note or Notes (including the implementation of one or more New Mezzanine Loans (in accordance with Section 9.3.2 below)), reduce the number of components of the Note or Notes, revise the interest rate for each component, reallocate the principal balances of the Notes and/or the components, increase or decrease the monthly debt service payments for each component or eliminate the component structure and/or the multiple note structure of the Loan (including the elimination of the related allocations of principal and interest payments), provided that the Outstanding Principal Balance of all components immediately after the effective date of such modification equals the Outstanding Principal Balance immediately prior to such modification and the weighted average of the interest rates for all components immediately after the effective date of such modification equals the interest rate of the original Note immediately prior to such modification. At Lender’s election, each note comprising the Loan may be subject to one or more Securitizations. Lender shall have the right to modify the Note and/or Notes and any components in accordance with this Section 9.3 and, provided that such modification shall comply with the terms of this Section 9.3, it shall become immediately effective.

9.3.2 New Mezzanine Loan Option. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.4 hereof, Lender, without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights hereunder, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right, at any time (whether prior to or after any Secondary Market

 

94


Transaction), to create one or more mezzanine loans (each, a “New Mezzanine Loan”), to establish different interest rates and to reallocate the Outstanding Principal Balance and Monthly Debt Service Payment of the Loan to the Loan and such New Mezzanine Loan(s) and to require the payment of the Loan and any New Mezzanine Loan(s) in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender; provided, that the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and such New Mezzanine Loan(s) immediately after the effective date of the creation of such New Mezzanine Loan(s) equals the Outstanding Principal Balance immediately prior to such modification and the weighted average of the interest rates for the Loan and such New Mezzanine Loan(s) immediately after the effective date of the creation of such New Mezzanine Loan(s) equals the interest rate of the original Note immediately prior to such modification. Borrower shall cause the formation of one or more special purpose, bankruptcy remote entities as required by Lender in order to serve as the borrower under any New Mezzanine Loan (each, a “New Mezzanine Borrower”) and the applicable organizational documents of Borrower shall be amended and modified as necessary or required in the formation of any New Mezzanine Borrower.

9.3.3 Cooperation; Execution; Delivery. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.4 hereof, Borrower shall reasonably cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in connection with this Section 9.3. If requested by Lender, Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver such documents as shall be required by Lender and any Rating Agency in connection with any modification or New Mezzanine Loan pursuant to this Section 9.3, all in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and satisfactory to any applicable Rating Agency, including, the severance of security documents if requested and/or, in connection with the creation of any New Mezzanine Loan: (i) execution and delivery of a promissory note and loan documents necessary to evidence such New Mezzanine Loan, (ii) execution and delivery of such amendments to the Loan Documents as are necessary in connection with the creation of such New Mezzanine Loan, (iii) delivery of opinions of legal counsel with respect to due execution, authority and enforceability of any modification documents or documents evidencing or securing any New Mezzanine Loan, as applicable and (iv) with respect to any New Mezzanine Loan, delivery of an additional Insolvency Opinion for the Loan and a substantive non-consolidation opinion; each as reasonably acceptable to Lender, prospective investors and/or the Rating Agencies. In the event Borrower fails to execute and deliver such documents to Lender within five (5) Business Days following such request by Lender, Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect such transactions, Borrower hereby ratifying all that such attorney shall do by virtue thereof. It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents if Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Section 9.3 after expiration of ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof.

Section 9.4 Costs and Expenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 9, Borrower shall not be required to incur any material costs or expenses in the performance of its obligations under Sections 9.1 or 9.2 (excluding the indemnity obligations set forth therein) or Section 9.3 above.

 

95


ARTICLE 10

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 10.1 Exculpation. Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the Obligations contained in the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest under the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or in the Property, the Gross Revenues or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Property, in the Gross Revenues and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents.

Section 10.2 Survival; Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the execution and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as all or any of the Obligations are outstanding and unpaid unless a longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the legal representatives, successors and assigns of such party. All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement, by or on behalf of Borrower, shall inure to the benefit of the legal representatives, successors and assigns of Lender.

Section 10.3 Lender’s Discretion; Rating Agency Review Waiver.

(a) Whenever pursuant to this Agreement Lender exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove any matter, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove such matter or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in the sole discretion of Lender and shall be final and conclusive. Prior to a Securitization, whenever pursuant to this Agreement the Rating Agencies are given any right to approve or disapprove any matter, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove such matter or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory, based upon Lender’s determination of Rating Agency criteria, shall be substituted therefor.

(b) Whenever, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, a Rating Agency Confirmation is required from each applicable Rating Agency, in the event that any applicable Rating Agency “declines review”, “waives review” or otherwise indicates in writing or otherwise to Lender’s or Servicer’s satisfaction that no Rating Agency Confirmation will or needs to be issued with respect to the matter in question (each, a “Review Waiver”), then the Rating Agency Confirmation requirement shall be deemed to be satisfied with respect to such matter. It is expressly agreed and understood, however, that receipt of a Review Waiver (i) from any one Rating Agency shall not be binding or apply with respect to any other Rating Agency and (ii) with respect to one matter shall not apply or be deemed to apply to any subsequent matter for which Rating Agency Confirmation is required.

Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount. Lender shall have the right to waive or reduce any time periods that Lender is entitled to under the Loan Documents in its sole and absolute discretion.

The Schedules and Exhibits annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

Section 10.9 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 10.10 Preferences. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the Obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the Obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

Section 10.11 Waiver of Notice. Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.

Section 10.12 Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where, by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages and Borrower’s sole remedy shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. Any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.

Section 10.13 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

 

103


Section 10.14 No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries.

(a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.

(b) The Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in any Loan Document shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than the Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained therein.

Section 10.15 Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender, the Affiliate of Lender that acts as the issuer with respect to a Securitization or any of their other Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender.

Section 10.16 Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s members or partners, as applicable, and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, and shall not assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property for the collection of the Obligations without any prior or different resort for collection, or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Obligations out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

Section 10.17 Certain Waivers. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments which Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents. Without limiting any of the other provisions contained herein, Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, any rights it may have to claim or recover against Lender in any legal action or proceeding any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

 

104


Section 10.18 Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan, without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.

Section 10.19 Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The provisions of this Section 10.19 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.

Section 10.20 Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 10.21 Servicer.

(a) At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer (the “Servicer”) selected by Lender and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to a servicing agreement (the “Servicing Agreement”) between Lender and Servicer. Borrower shall not be responsible for any set-up fees or any other initial costs relating to or arising under the Servicing Agreement. Borrower shall not be responsible for payment of the annual master servicing fee due to the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement.

(b) Borrower shall pay any fees and expenses of the Servicer and any reasonable third-party fees and expenses in connection with a prepayment, release of the Property, approvals under the Loan Documents, requested by Borrower, defeasance, assumption of Borrower’s obligations or modification of the Loan, special servicing or work-out of the Loan or enforcement of the Loan Documents, including, special servicing fees, work-out fees, liquidation fees operating or trust advisor fees if the Loan is a specially serviced loan or in connection with a workout, modification or restructuring of the Loan and attorneys fees and disbursements and fees and expenses.

 

105


Section 10.22 Joint and Several Liability. If more than one Person has executed this Agreement as “Borrower,” the representations, covenants, warranties and obligations of all such Persons hereunder shall be joint and several.

Section 10.23 Creation of Security Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents, Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and any other Loan Document (including the advances owing to it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Section 10.24 Assignments and Participations. In addition to any other rights of Lender hereunder, the Loan, the Note, the Loan Documents and/or Lender’s rights, title, obligations and interests therein may be sold, assigned, participated or otherwise transferred by Lender and any of its successors and assigns to any Person at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, in whole or in part, whether by operation of law (pursuant to a merger or other successor in interest) or otherwise without notice to or consent from Borrower or any other Person. Upon such assignment, all references to Lender in this Agreement and in any Loan Document shall be deemed to refer to such assignee or successor in interest and such assignee or successor in interest shall thereafter stand in the place of Lender in all respects. Except as expressly permitted herein, Borrower may not assign its rights, title, interests or obligations under this Agreement or under any of the Loan Documents.

Section 10.25 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 10.26 Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Lender provided by this Agreement and by law, Lender shall have the right in its sole discretion, without prior notice to Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Lender or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Borrower; provided however, Lender may only exercise such right during the continuance of an Event of Default. Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower after any such set-off and application made by Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

DEFINITION OF SPECIAL PURPOSE BANKRUPTCY REMOTE ENTITY

Borrower hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, Lender that since the date of its formation and at all times on and after the date hereof and until such time as the Obligations shall be paid and performed in full:

(a) Borrower (i) has been, is, and will be organized solely for the purpose of acquiring, owning, holding, selling, leasing, operating, managing, transferring, servicing, conveying, disposing of, pledging, assigning, borrowing money against, financing, refinancing, or otherwise dealing with the Property, publicly or privately, together with such activities as may be necessary or advisable in connection therewith, and transacting lawful business that is incident, necessary and appropriate to accomplish the foregoing and (ii) has not owned, does not own, and will not own any asset or property other than (A) the Property, and (B) incidental personal property necessary for the ownership or operation of the Property.

(b) Borrower has not engaged and will not engage in any business other than the ownership, management and operation of the Property and Borrower will conduct and operate its business as presently conducted and operated.

(c) Borrower has not and will not enter into any contract or agreement with any Affiliate of Borrower, except upon terms and conditions that are intrinsically fair, commercially reasonable, and no less favorable to it than would be available on an arms-length basis with third parties other than any such party.

(d) Borrower has not incurred and will not incur any Indebtedness other than Permitted Indebtedness.

(e) Borrower has not made and will not make any loans or advances to any third party (including any Affiliate or constituent party), and has not and shall not acquire obligations or securities of its Affiliates.

(f) Borrower has been, is, and intends to remain solvent and Borrower has paid and intends to pay its debts and liabilities (including, as applicable, shared personnel and overhead expenses) from its assets; provided that the foregoing shall not require any direct or indirect member, partner or shareholder of Borrower to make any additional capital contributions to Borrower.

(g) Borrower has done or caused to be done, and will do, all things necessary to observe organizational formalities and preserve its existence, and Borrower has not, will not (i) terminate or fail to comply with the provisions of its organizational documents, or (ii) unless (A) Lender has consented and (B) following a Securitization of the Loan, the applicable Rating Agencies have issued a Rating Agency Confirmation, amend, modify or otherwise change its operating agreement or other organizational documents.

(h) Except to the extent that Borrower is (i) required to file consolidated tax returns by law; or (ii) treated as a “disregarded entity” for tax purposes and is not required to file tax returns under applicable law, (1) Borrower has maintained and will maintain all of its books, records, financial statements and bank accounts separate from those of its Affiliates and any other Person; (2) Borrower’s assets will not be listed as assets on the financial statement of any other Person; it being understood that Borrower’s assets may be included in a consolidated financial statement of its Affiliates provided that (i) if consolidated financial statements of any such Affiliate are the only financial statements relating to Borrower or the Property for the period in question, then appropriate notation shall be made on such consolidated financial statements to indicate the separateness of Borrower and such Affiliates and to indicate that Borrower’s assets and credit are not available to satisfy the debts and other obligations of such Affiliates or any other Person, and (ii) such assets shall be listed on Borrower’s own separate balance sheet; and (3) Borrower will file its own tax returns (to the extent Borrower is required to file any tax returns) and will not file a consolidated federal income tax return with any other Person. Borrower has maintained and shall maintain its books, records, resolutions and agreements in accordance with this Agreement.

(i) Borrower has been, will be, and at all times has held and will hold itself out to the public as, a legal entity separate and distinct from any other entity (including any Affiliate of Borrower or any constituent party of Borrower (recognizing that Borrower may be treated as a “disregarded entity” for tax purposes and is not required to file tax returns for tax purposes under applicable law)), shall correct any known misunderstanding regarding its status as a separate entity, shall conduct business in its own name, shall not identify itself or any of its Affiliates as a division or department or part of the other and shall (except to the extent Borrower is treated as a “disregarded entity” for tax purpose), to the extent reasonably necessary for the operation of its business, maintain and utilize separate stationery, invoices and checks bearing its own name.

(j) Borrower has maintained and intends to maintain adequate capital for the normal obligations reasonably foreseeable in a business of its size and character and in light of its contemplated business operations; provided that the foregoing shall not require any direct or indirect member, partner or shareholder of Borrower to make any additional capital contributions to Borrower.

(k) Neither Borrower nor any constituent party of Borrower has sought or will seek or effect the liquidation, dissolution, winding up, consolidation or merger, in whole or in part, of Borrower.

(l) Borrower has not and will not commingle the funds and other assets of Borrower with those of any Affiliate or constituent party or any other Person, and has held and will hold all of its assets in its own name.

(m) Borrower has and will maintain its assets in such a manner that it will not be costly or difficult to segregate, ascertain or identify its individual assets from those of any Affiliate or constituent party or any other Person.

 

Sch. V-2


(n) Borrower has not and will not assume or guarantee or become obligated for the debts of any other Person and does not and will not hold itself out to be responsible for or have its credit available to satisfy the debts or obligations of any other Person.

(o) The organizational documents of Borrower shall provide that the business and affairs of Borrower shall be (A) managed by or under the direction of a board of one or more directors designated by Borrower’s sole member (the “Sole Member”) or (B) a committee of managers designated by Sole Member (a “Committee”) or (C) by Sole Member, and at all times there shall be at least two (2) duly appointed Independent Directors or Independent Managers. In addition, the organizational documents of Borrower shall provide that no Independent Director or Independent Manager (as applicable) of Borrower may be removed or replaced without Cause and unless Borrower provides Lender with not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of (a) any proposed removal of an Independent Director or Independent Manager (as applicable), together with a statement as to the reasons for such removal, and (b) the identity of the proposed replacement Independent Director or Independent Manager, as applicable, together with a certification that such replacement satisfies the requirements set forth in the organizational documents for an Independent Director or Independent Manager (as applicable).

(p) The organizational documents of Borrower shall also provide an express acknowledgment that Lender is an intended third-party beneficiary of the “special purpose” provisions of such organizational documents.

(q) The organizational documents of Borrower shall provide that the board of directors, the Committee or Sole Member (as applicable) of Borrower shall not take any action which, under the terms of any certificate of formation, limited liability company operating agreement or any voting trust agreement, requires an unanimous vote of the board of directors (or the Committee as applicable) of Borrower unless at the time of such action there shall be (A) at least two (2) members of the board of directors (or the Committee as applicable) who are Independent Directors or Independent Managers, as applicable (and such Independent Directors or Independent Managers, as applicable, have participated in such vote) or (B) if there is no board of directors or Committee, then such Independent Managers shall have participated in such vote. The organizational documents of the Borrower shall provide that Borrower will not and Borrower agrees that it will not, without the unanimous written consent of its board of directors, its Committee or its Sole Member (as applicable), including, or together with, the Independent Directors or Independent Managers (as applicable) take any Material Action. Borrower shall not take any Material Action without the unanimous written consent of its board of directors, its Committee or its Sole Member, as applicable, including (or together with) all Independent Directors or Independent Managers, as applicable. In addition, the organizational documents of Borrower shall provide that, when voting with respect to any Material Action, the Independent Directors or Independent Managers (as applicable) shall consider only the interests of Borrower, including its creditors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such documents shall expressly provide that, to the greatest extent permitted by law, except for duties to the Borrower (including duties to the members of Borrower solely to the extent of their respective economic interest in the Borrower and to the Borrower’s creditors as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence), such Independent Directors or Independent Managers (as applicable) shall not owe any fiduciary duties to, and shall not consider, in acting or otherwise voting on any matter for which their approval is required, the interests of (i) the members of Borrower, (ii) other Affiliates of Borrower, or (iii) any group of Affiliates of which the Borrower is a part); provided, however, the foregoing shall not eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

 

Sch. V-3

The organizational documents of Borrower shall further provide that for so long as any portion of the Obligations is outstanding, no Special Member may resign or transfer its rights as Special Member unless (i) a successor Special Member has been admitted to Borrower as a Special Member, and (ii) such successor Special Member has also accepted its appointment as an Independent Director or Independent Manager (as applicable).

(t) The organizational documents of Borrower shall provide that, as long as any portion of the Obligations remains outstanding: (i) Borrower shall be dissolved, and its affairs shall be wound up, only upon the first to occur of the following: (A) the termination of the legal existence of the last remaining member of Borrower or the occurrence of any other event which terminates the continued membership of the last remaining member of Borrower in Borrower unless the business of Borrower is continued in a manner permitted by its operating agreement or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “Act”), or (B) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 18-802 of the Act; (ii) upon the occurrence of any event that causes the last remaining member of Borrower to cease to be a member of Borrower or that causes Sole Member to cease to be a member of Borrower (other than (A) upon an assignment by Sole Member of all of its limited liability company interest in Borrower and the admission of the transferee, if permitted pursuant to the organizational documents of Borrower and the Loan Documents, or (B) the resignation of Sole Member and the admission of an additional member of Borrower, if permitted pursuant to the organizational documents of Borrower and the Loan Documents), to the fullest extent permitted by law, the personal representative of such last remaining member shall be authorized to, and shall, within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such member in Borrower, agree in writing (I) to continue the existence of Borrower, and (II) to the admission of the personal representative or its nominee or designee, as the case may be, as a substitute member of Borrower, effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued

 

Sch. V-4


membership of such member in Borrower; (iii) the bankruptcy of Sole Member or a Special Member shall not cause such Sole Member or Special Member, respectively, to cease to be a member of Borrower and upon the occurrence of such an event, the business of Borrower shall continue without dissolution; (iv) in the event of the dissolution of Borrower, Borrower shall conduct only such activities as are necessary to wind up its affairs (including the sale of the assets of Borrower in an orderly manner), and the assets of Borrower shall be applied in the manner, and in the order of priority, set forth in Section 18-804 of the Act; and (v) to the fullest extent permitted by law, each of Sole Member and the Special Members shall irrevocably waive any right or power that they might have to cause Borrower or any of its assets to be partitioned, to cause the appointment of a receiver for all or any portion of the assets of Borrower, to compel any sale of all or any portion of the assets of Borrower pursuant to any applicable law or to file a complaint or to institute any proceeding at law or in equity to cause the dissolution, liquidation, winding up or termination of Borrower.

(u) Borrower shall conduct its business so that the assumptions made with respect to Borrower in the Insolvency Opinion shall be true and correct in all respects.

(v) Borrower has not permitted and will not permit any Affiliate or constituent party independent access to its bank accounts.

(x) Borrower has compensated and shall compensate each of its consultants and agents from its funds for services provided to it and pay from its own assets all obligations of any kind incurred; provided that the foregoing shall not require any direct or indirect member, partner or shareholder of Borrower to make any additional capital contributions to Borrower.

(y) Borrower has allocated and will allocate fairly and reasonably any overhead expenses that are shared with any Affiliate, including shared office space.

(z) Except in connection with the Loan, Borrower has not pledged and will not pledge its assets for the benefit of any other Person.

(aa) Borrower has and will have no obligation to indemnify its officers, directors, members or Special Members, as the case may be, or has such an obligation that is fully subordinated to the Debt and will not constitute a claim against it if cash flow in excess of the amount required to pay the Debt is insufficient to pay such obligation.

(bb) Borrower has not, does not, and will not have any of its obligations guaranteed by any Affiliate (other than from the Guarantor with respect to the Loan).
