All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

                    (c)          To the extent that Lender is relying on Chapter 303, as amended, of the Texas Finance Code to determine the maximum amount of Interest permitted by applicable law on the principal of this Note, Lender will utilize the weekly rate ceiling from time to time in effect as provided in such Chapter 303, as amended. To the extent United States federal law permits a greater amount of interest than is permitted under Texas law, Lender will rely on United States federal law instead of such Chapter 303, as amended, for the purpose of determining the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Additionally, to the extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, Lender may, at its option and from time to time, implement any other method of computing the maximum lawful rate under such Chapter 303, as amended, or under other applicable law by giving notice, if required, to Borrower as provided by applicable law now or hereafter in effect. In no event shall the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving triparty accounts) apply to the indebtedness evidenced hereby.

                    2.2.2     Interest Calculation. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan 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 the Applicable Interest Rate and a three hundred sixty (360) day year by (c) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan. The accrual period for calculating interest due on each Payment Date shall be the Interest Accrual Period immediately prior to such Payment Date. Borrower understands and acknowledges that such interest accrual requirement results in more interest accruing on the Loan than if either (i) a thirty (30) day month and a three hundred sixty (360) day year or (ii) the actual number of days in a month and a three hundred and sixty five (365) day year were used to compute the accrual of interest on the Loan.

                    2.2.3     Payments Before Maturity Date; Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount. Borrower shall pay to Lender (a) unless the Closing Date occurs on the first (1st) day of a calendar month, on the Closing Date, an amount equal to interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan from the Closing Date up to and including September 30, 2013, calculated by multiplying (i) the actual number of days elapsed during such period by (ii) a daily rate based on the Applicable Interest Rate and a three hundred sixty (360) day year by (iii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan on the Closing Date and (b) on the Payment Date occurring in November, 2013 and on each Payment Date thereafter up to but not including November 1, 2021, interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate, calculated by multiplying (i) the actual number of days elapsed in each Interest Accrual Period by (ii) a daily rate based on the Applicable Interest Rate and a three

27


hundred sixty (360) day year by (iii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan during each Interest Accrual Period and (c) on the Payment Date occurring in November, 2021 and on each Payment Date thereafter up to but not including the Maturity Date, an amount equal to $113,820.43, which amount consists of principal and interest at the Applicable Interest Rate on the outstanding principal balance during each Interest Accrual Period, based upon a thirty (30) year amortization schedule computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months (the amounts required by subsections (b) and (c) being the “Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount” for each applicable Interest Accrual Period).

                    2.2.4     Payment on Maturity Date. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the Debt, including but not limited to, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the end of the Interest Accrual Period immediately prior to the Maturity Date and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.

                    2.2.5     Payments After Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (including, without limitation, failure to repay the Debt on the Maturity Date), interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by Law, overdue interest and other amounts due in respect of the Loan shall accrue at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein. Interest at the Default Rate shall be computed from the occurrence of the Event of Default until the actual receipt and collection of the Debt in full or until such Event of Default has been waived by Lender. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, interest at the Default Rate shall be added to the Debt, shall itself accrue interest at the same rate as the Loan and shall be secured by the Security Instrument. This paragraph shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, all interest accrued at the Default Rate shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender.

                    2.2.6     Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or any other sum due under the Loan Documents (other than the balloon payment due on the Maturity Date) is not paid by Borrower on or before the fifth (5th) day after the date the same is due and payable, 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 Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

                    2.2.7     Release on Payment in Full. Lender shall at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, after payment in full of the Debt and the performance of the Other Obligations in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, release the Lien of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents on the Property.

28


          Section 2.3     Manner of Making Payments.

                    2.3.1     Making of Payments. Each payment by Borrower hereunder or under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall be made in funds immediately available to Lender by 4:00 p.m., central time, on the date such payment is due, to Lender at PNC Bank, National Association, c/o Midland Loan Services, c/o Bank of Oklahoma, Lockbox #2585, 6242 East 41st Street, Tulsa, OK 74135. Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the first Business Day following such scheduled due date.

                    2.3.2     Credit for Payment Receipt. No payment due under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be deemed paid to Lender until received by Lender at its designated office on a Business Day prior to 4:00 p.m., central time. Any payment received after the time established by the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been paid on the immediately succeeding Business Day. Each payment that is paid to Lender within ten (10) days prior to the date on which such payment is due, and prior to its scheduled Payment Date, shall not be deemed a prepayment and shall be deemed to have been received on the Payment Date solely for the purpose of calculating interest due.

                    2.3.3     Invalidated Payments. If any payment received by Lender is deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under any Creditors Rights Laws, and is required to be returned by Lender, then the obligation to make such payment shall be reinstated, notwithstanding that the Note may have been marked satisfied and returned to Borrower or otherwise canceled, and such payment shall be immediately due and payable upon demand.

                    2.3.4     No Deductions, etc. All payments made by Borrower hereunder or under the Note or the other Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of, and without any deduction for, any setoff, defense, claim or counterclaims.

                    2.3.5     Application of Payments. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, payments of principal and interest due from Borrower shall be applied (a) first, to the payment or reimbursement of any expenses (including but not limited to late charges), costs or obligations (other than the principal and interest) for which Borrower shall be obligated or Lender entitled pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Documents, (b) second, to the payment of accrued but unpaid interest, (c) third, to the payment of unpaid Reserve Funds required pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Documents, and (d) fourth, to the payment of principal then outstanding. If at any time Lender receives less than the full amount due and payable on a Payment Date or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may apply all payments received to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Lender, in its sole discretion. Lender’s acceptance of a payment from Borrower in an amount that is less than the full amount then due and Lender’s application of such payments to amounts then due from Borrower shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction.

                    2.3.6     Increased Costs. If, as a result of any Change in Law, any reserve, special deposit, condition, expense, tax (other than taxes the indemnification of which is already

29


excluded or provided for pursuant to the terms hereof), allocation of capital or similar requirement relating to any extensions of credit, commitments or other assets of, or any deposits with, Lender or its holding company is imposed, modified or deemed applicable and the result is to increase the cost to Lender or its holding company of making or holding the Loan, or to reduce the amount receivable by Lender or its holding company hereunder in respect of any portion of the Loan, then from time to time Borrower will pay to Lender or its holding company upon request such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender and/or its holding company for such increases in cost and/or reductions in amounts receivable. If Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital or on the capital of Lender’s holding company, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loan, to a level below that which Lender or Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration Lender’s policies and the policies of Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower will pay to Lender or its holding company upon request such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender and/or its holding company for any such reduction suffered.

                    2.3.7     Taxes.

                    (a)          Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower or Guarantor under any Loan Document must be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined by Borrower or Guarantor) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by Borrower or Guarantor, then Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and will timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower or Guarantor is increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.3.7) Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it could have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

                    (b)          Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law, or at Lender’s option, timely reimburse Lender for the payment of any such Other Taxes.

                    (c)          Indemnification. BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY LENDER WITHIN 10 DAYS AFTER DEMAND THEREFOR, FOR THE FULL AMOUNT OF ANY INDEMNIFIED TAXES, INCLUDING INDEMNIFIED TAXES IMPOSED OR ASSERTED ON OR ATTRIBUTABLE TO AMOUNTS PAYABLE UNDER THIS SECTION 2.3.7, PAYABLE OR PAID BY LENDER OR REQUIRED TO BE WITHHELD OR DEDUCTED FROM A PAYMENT TO LENDER AND ANY REASONABLE RELATED EXPENSES, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH INDEMNIFIED TAXES WERE CORRECTLY OR LEGALLY IMPOSED OR ASSERTED BY THE RELEVANT OFFICIAL BODY. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by Lender is conclusive absent manifest error.

30


                    (d)          Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower or Guarantor to an Official Body pursuant to this Section 2.3.7, Borrower or Guarantor must deliver to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

                    (e)          Status of Lender. In the event that any successor and/or assign of Lender is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (a “Non-U.S. Entity”) Lender agrees that, prior to the first date on which any payment is due such entity hereunder, it will deliver to Borrower two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or successor applicable form, as the case may be, certifying in each case that such entity is entitled to receive payments under the Note, without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each entity required to deliver to Borrower a Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI pursuant to the preceding sentence further undertakes to deliver to Borrower two further copies of such forms, or successor applicable forms, or other manner of certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form expires (which, in the case of the Form W-8ECI, is the last day of each U.S. taxable year of the Non-U.S. Entity) or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to Borrower, and such other extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by Borrower, certifying in the case of a Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI that such entity is entitled to receive payments under the Note without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless in any such case an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, Law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such entity from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such entity advises Borrower that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

                    (f)          Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines that it has received a refund of any Taxes to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.3.7, such party must pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (including any interest paid by an Official Body) in an amount not to exceed the extent of any indemnity payments made under this Section 2.3.7 with respect to such Taxes, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such indemnified party (including Taxes) and without interest; and in the event the indemnified party is thereafter required to return such refund to the Official Body, then upon the request of the indemnified party the indemnifying party must repay to the indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.3.7, plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Official Body. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.3.7, in no event will Lender be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.3.7(f), if such payment could place Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 2.3.7 will not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

                    (g)          Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.3.7 survive the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of the Debt.

31


          Section 2.4     Prepayments.

                    2.4.1     Voluntary Prepayments. Except as set forth in this Section 2.4, Borrower shall not have the right to prepay all or any portion of the Debt. After the Lockout Period, Borrower may prepay the Debt in whole, but not in part, on any Payment Date, provided the following conditions are satisfied: (a) no Default or Event of Default shall be occurring on either the date the required prepayment notice is received by Lender or the Prepayment Date; (b) Borrower shall give written notice to Lender specifying the Payment Date on which a prepayment is to be made (the date of any prepayment hereunder, whether pursuant to such notice or not, and whether voluntary or involuntary, being herein referred to as the “Prepayment Date”) not more than sixty (60) days and not less than ten (10) days prior to the Prepayment Date if such Prepayment Date occurs prior to a Securitization and thirty (30) days prior to the Prepayment Date if such Prepayment Date occurs following a Securitization; and (c) the applicable Prepayment Consideration, if any, is paid by Borrower to Lender with such prepayment of the entire Debt in full. Additionally, any such prepayment not actually received by Lender before 4:00 p.m., central time, on the fifth (5th) day of the month must also include the interest which would have accrued on the amount of such prepayment during the entire Interest Accrual Period in which the prepayment is made. A prepayment notice may be revoked by Borrower in a writing delivered to Lender at any time on or prior to the fifth (5th) Business Day preceding the proposed Prepayment Date; provided that, in the event of any revocation of a prepayment notice, Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse Lender for all of its costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and costs) incurred by Lender in connection with the anticipated prepayment within ten (10) days of Lender’s request.

                    2.4.2     Prepayment Consideration. Lender shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the Debt unless it is accompanied by the applicable Prepayment Consideration. The “Prepayment Consideration” shall be calculated by Lender as follows:

 

 

 

From the Closing date through September 30, 2016 (the “Lockout Period”):

 

Not applicable; No prepayment permitted.

 

October 1, 2016 through October 31, 2021 (the “1% Prepayment Period”):

 

The greater of (i) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan on a Prepayment Date; or (ii) the Yield Maintenance Premium.

 

November 1, 2021 through March 31, 2023 (the “0.50% Prepayment Period”):

 

The greater of (i) one half of one percent (0.50%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan on a Prepayment Date; or (ii) the Yield Maintenance Premium.

 

 

 

April 1, 2023 through October 1, 2023 (the “Scheduled Maturity Date”):

 

No Prepayment Consideration (i.e., $0.00).

32



 

 

 

Prepayment After an Event of Default:

 

The Prepayment Consideration set forth in Section 2.4.4 hereof.

          Borrower acknowledges that the Prepayment Consideration is a bargained for consideration and is not a penalty. Borrower recognizes that Lender would incur substantial additional costs and expenses in the event of a prepayment of the Debt and that the Prepayment Consideration compensates Lender for such costs and expenses (including without limitation, the loss of Lender’s investment opportunity during the period from the Prepayment Date until the Maturity Date). Borrower agrees that Lender shall not, as a condition to receiving the Prepayment Consideration, be obligated to actually reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligation or in any other manner whatsoever.

                    2.4.3     Mandatory Prepayments. If Borrower receives any Net Proceeds and if Lender is not obligated to make, and does not make, such Net Proceeds available to Borrower for the Restoration of the Property pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, then Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal balance of the Loan in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Proceeds. No Prepayment Consideration shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.4.3. Any partial prepayment under this Section 2.4.3 shall be applied to the last payments of principal due under the Loan; provided, however, if an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Lender may apply such Net Proceeds to the Debt in any order or priority in its sole discretion. Any prepayment received by Lender pursuant to this Section 2.4.3 on a date other than a Payment Date shall be held by Lender as Collateral for the Debt in an interest bearing Eligible Account at an Eligible Institution, with such interest accruing for the benefit of Borrower, and shall be applied by Lender on the next Payment Date, with any interest on such funds paid to Borrower on such Payment Date provided no Event of Default then exists.

                    2.4.4     Prepayments After Event of Default. If, following the occurrence of and during continuance of any Event of Default, Borrower shall tender payment of an amount sufficient to satisfy the Debt, such tendered prepayment by Borrower shall be deemed to be a voluntary prepayment in the amount tendered and in such case Borrower shall also pay to Lender, with respect to the amount tendered, Prepayment Consideration equal to the Prepayment Consideration payable by Borrower under Section 2.4.2 above; provided, however, if such tendered prepayment by Borrower is made during the Lockout Period, then the Prepayment Consideration payable hereunder shall be equal to the greater of (a) four percent (4%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan on the date of such tendered prepayment and (b) the Yield Maintenance Premium (provided that all references to the “Prepayment Date” contained in the definition of Yield Maintenance Premium shall mean the date of said tendered prepayment) which Prepayment Consideration shall be immediately due and payable. Lender shall not be obligated to accept any such tender unless it is accompanied by all Prepayment Consideration due in connection therewith.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

          Section 4.1     Borrower Representations.

          Borrower represents and warrants as of the Closing Date that:

                    4.1.1     Organization. Borrower has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing in the jurisdiction in which it is organized with requisite power and authority to own its properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged. Borrower is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where it is required to be so qualified in connection with its properties, businesses and operations. Borrower possesses all rights, Licenses and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to entitle it to own its properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged, and the sole business of Borrower is the ownership, management and operation of the Property and the other Collateral. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a true and correct copy of the organizational structure chart of Borrower, which accurately shows all ownership interests, direct and indirect, in Borrower. Neither Guarantor, nor any managing member, general partner or similar controlling Person of Borrower, nor any Person that holds a ten percent (10%) or greater direct ownership interest in Borrower (a) is the subject of a Bankruptcy Action, (b) has a prior record of having been the subject of a Bankruptcy Action, or (c) has been convicted of a felony.

                    4.1.2     Proceedings. Borrower has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. This Agreement and such other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of Borrower and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable Creditors Rights Laws and similar Laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

                    4.1.3     No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Borrower will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien, charge or encumbrance (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property or assets of Borrower pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, partnership agreement, management agreement, or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which any of Borrower’s property or assets is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any Law, and any consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court or any such regulatory authority or other governmental agency or body required for the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect.

                    4.1.4     Litigation. There is no pending, filed or to the best of Borrower’s knowledge threatened action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation, at

34


law or in equity or by or before any Governmental Authority or other agency, involving Borrower, Guarantor, or the Collateral, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) title to the Property or any of the other Collateral, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Security Instrument, (c) Borrower’s ability to perform under the Loan or the Loan Documents, (d) Guarantor’s ability to perform under the Guaranty, (e) the use, operation or value of the Property, (f) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Loan Documents, (g) the current ability of the Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service the Loan, or (h) the current principal use of the Property.

                    4.1.5     Agreements. Borrower is not a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any restriction which might materially and adversely affect Borrower, the use, value or operation of the Property, or Borrower’s business, properties or assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise. Borrower is not in default in any material respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which Borrower or the Property is bound. Borrower has no financial obligation under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower, the Property or other Collateral are otherwise bound, other than (a) obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the operation of the Property or other Collateral as permitted pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(vii) hereof and (b) obligations under the Loan Documents.

                    4.1.6     Title. Borrower has good, indefeasible and insurable fee simple title to the real property comprising part of the Property and good title to the balance of the Property, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Encumbrances. To Borrower’s knowledge, the Security Instrument, when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements required to be filed in connection therewith, will create (a) a valid, perfected first priority Lien on the Property, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances and (b) perfected first priority 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 any applicable Permitted Encumbrances. There are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Property which are or may become a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents. The Assignment of Leases, when properly recorded in the appropriate records will create perfected first priority security interests in and to, and perfected collateral assignments of, all applicable Leases and Rents, all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to any applicable Permitted Encumbrances.

                    4.1.7     Solvency; No Bankruptcy Filing. Borrower (a) has not entered into the transaction contemplated hereby or executed the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor and (b) has received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents. After giving effect to the Loan, the fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, exceed Borrower’s total liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities. The fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets is and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, 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. To Borrower’s knowledge,

35


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 incur debt and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debt 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 obligations of Borrower). The Property is not the subject of any Bankruptcy Action. No Bankruptcy Action has been filed by or against any Borrower Party in the last seven (7) years, and no Borrower Party in the last seven (7) years has ever made an assignment for the benefit of creditors or taken advantage of any Creditors Rights Laws. No Borrower Party is contemplating either the filing of any Bankruptcy Action by it or the liquidation of all or a major portion of Borrower’s or any such Borrower Party’s assets or property, and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any Bankruptcy Action against any Borrower Party.

                    4.1.8     Financial Information. All financial information submitted by Borrower to Lender including but not limited to all financial statements, statements of cash flow and income and operating statements, Rent Rolls, reports, certificates and other documents submitted in connection with the Loan (including the application therefor) or in satisfaction of the terms thereof and all statements of fact made by Borrower in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, (a) are true, complete and correct, (b) accurately represent the financial condition of the Property as of the date of such reports, and (c) to the extent prepared or audited by an independent certified public accounting firm, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP throughout the periods covered, except as expressly disclosed therein.

                    4.1.9     Full and Accurate Disclosure. To Borrower’s knowledge, no statement of fact made by Borrower in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading. There is no material fact presently known to Borrower which has not been disclosed to Lender which adversely affects, nor as far as Borrower can foresee, might adversely affect, the use, value or operation of the Property or the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower. To Borrower’s knowledge, there has been no material adverse change in any condition, fact, circumstance or event that would make any such information inaccurate, incomplete or otherwise misleading in any material respect or that otherwise materially and adversely affects or might materially and adversely affect the Property or the business operations or the financial condition of Borrower. To Borrower’s knowledge, Borrower has disclosed to Lender all material facts and has not failed to disclose any material fact that could cause any representation or warranty made herein to be materially misleading.

                    4.1.10   No Plan Assets.

                    (a)        (i) Borrower is not an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, subject to Title I of ERISA (a “Plan”), (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. § 2510.3-101 (“Plan Assets”) and (iii) Borrower is not engaging in any transaction which would cause any obligation, or action taken or to be taken, hereunder (or the exercise by Lender of any of its rights under the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instrument or the other Loan

36

Borrower irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have under any applicable Laws to prohibit such disclosure, including, but not limited, to any right of privacy.

          Section 5.11    Business and Operations. Borrower shall continue to engage in the businesses presently conducted by it as and to the extent the same are necessary for the ownership, maintenance, management and operation of the Property, and shall continue to operate the Property for such purposes.

If any tenant fails to provide such estoppel certificate, Borrower shall provide a landlord estoppel certificate to Lender with respect to the tenancy of such tenant, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender provided that Borrower shall not be required to deliver such certificates more frequently than two (2) times in any calendar year so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

                    (c)          After request by Lender, Borrower shall within thirty (30) Business Days (if such request is made prior to a Securitization) and fifteen (15) Business Days (if such request is made following a Securitization) deliver estoppel certificates from each party under any Property Document in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender. If any party under any Property Document (other than Borrower) fails to provide such estoppel certificate, Borrower shall provide an estoppel certificate to Lender with respect to such Property Document, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, provided that Borrower shall not be required to deliver such certificates more frequently than two (2) times in any calendar year so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

          Section 5.15     Loan Proceeds. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loan received by it on the Closing Date only for the purposes set forth in Section 2.1.4 hereof.

          Section 5.16     No Joint Assessment. Borrower shall not suffer, permit or initiate the joint assessment of the Property (a) with any other real property constituting a tax lot separate from the Property and (b) which constitutes real property with any portion of the Property which

49


may be deemed to constitute Personal Property, or any other procedure whereby the Lien of any taxes which may be levied against such Personal Property shall be assessed or levied or charged to such real property portion of the Property.

          Section 5.17     Leasing Matters.

                    (a)          With respect to all Leases, Borrower shall: (i) observe and perform all the obligations imposed upon Borrower as landlord; (ii) not do or permit to be done anything to materially impair the value of any of the Leases as security for the Debt (including, without limitation, relocating or moving any tenant under any Lease to any other property owned by any Guarantor or any Affiliate of Borrower, SPE Component Entity or any Guarantor); (iii) other than for Residential Leases, promptly send to Lender copies of all notices of default which Borrower shall send or receive thereunder; (iv) enforce in a commercially reasonable manner all of the terms, covenants and conditions which are to be performed by any tenant, short of termination thereof; (v) not collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in advance; (vi) not execute any other assignment of Borrower’s interest in any of the Leases or the Rents; and (vii) execute and deliver at the request of Lender all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Property as Lender shall from time to time require.

                    (b)          Without obtaining Lender’s prior written approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), Borrower shall not:

                                   (i)            extend any Lease or enter into any new or renewal Lease affecting the Property; provided, however, so long as there exists no Event of Default, no such approval of Lender shall be required if: (A) such Lease is not a Major Lease, (B) such Lease complies with the Leasing Requirements; and (C) other than Residential Leases (unless requested by Lender), an executed copy of such Lease shall be furnished to Lender within ten (10) Business Days after its execution;

                                   (ii)           other than Residential Leases, consent to any assignment of or subletting by any tenant under any Lease that covers more than 15,000 square feet of rentable space at the Property (except in accordance with the terms of such tenant’s Lease);

                                   (iii)          alter, modify, change, cancel or terminate any guaranty of any of the Leases;

                                   (iv)          other than Residential Leases, alter, modify, change the terms of, cancel, terminate or accept a surrender of any Lease that covers more than 15,000 square feet of rentable space at the Property; or

                                   (v)           transfer or permit a transfer of the Property or of any interest therein, even if such a transfer is permitted under the Security Instrument, if such transfer would effect a merger of the estates and rights of, or a termination or diminution of the obligations of, tenants under any of the Leases.

                    (c)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.17, provided no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, Borrower may, without the prior written consent of

50


Lender (except if required pursuant to Section 5.17(d) hereof), amend, modify or waive the provisions of any Lease that is not a Major Lease or terminate, reduce rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of, any Lease that is not a Major Lease (any of the foregoing, a “Lease Modification”), provided that (i) such Lease Modification (taking into account, in the case of a termination, reduction in rent, surrender of space or shortening of term, the planned alternative use of the affected space) does not have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) such Lease Modification is in the normal course of business and is consistent with sound and customary leasing and management practices for similar properties in the community in which the Property is located, and (iii) such Lease, as amended, modified or waived, is otherwise in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement and any subordination agreement binding upon Lender with respect to such Lease. A termination of a Lease with a tenant who is in default beyond applicable notice and grace periods shall not be considered an action which has a Material Adverse Effect on the value of the Property taken as a whole. Any Lease Modification which does not satisfy the requirements set forth in this Section 5.17(c) shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender, at Borrower’s expense (and, in conjunction therewith, Borrower shall provide Lender with such information as Lender shall reasonably request with respect to such proposed Lease Modification and the tenant under the Lease affected thereby). Promptly upon entering into any Lease Modification without Lender’s approval pursuant to this Section 5.17(c), Borrower shall deliver to Lender a copy of such instrument, together with Borrower’s certification that such instrument satisfies all of the conditions of this Section 5.17.

                    (d)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.17, (i) Borrower shall not modify, amend, supplement or replace the Approved Lease Form without Lender’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; and (ii) Borrower shall not enter into, alter, modify, change the terms of, cancel, terminate or accept a surrender of, or extend or renew a Major Lease, without Lender’s prior written approval, which approval may be granted or withheld in Lender’s sole but in good faith discretion.

                    (e)          To the extent Lender’s approval is required under this Section 5.17, and the Lease in question is not a Major Lease, Borrower shall submit a request to Lender (containing all information reasonably necessary for Lender to make an informed decision, i.e. financial statements, proposed lease, modification, sublease, assignment or other document for which approval is sought), with the following language prominently displayed at the top and on the cover of any such request in allcaps, boldface, 14 point type or larger: “IMMEDIATE RESPONSE REQUIRED, CONSENT DEEMED GIVEN IF NO RESPONSE WITHIN 10 BUSINESS DAYS.” If no response has been received within 10 Business Days of Lender’s receipt of such request, Borrower shall submit a second request to Lender with the following language prominently displayed at the top and on the cover of any such request in allcaps, boldface, 14 point type or larger: “IMMEDIATE RESPONSE REQUIRED, CONSENT DEEMED GIVEN IF NO RESPONSE WITHIN 5 BUSINESS DAYS.” If no response has been received within five (5) Business Days of Lender’s receipt of such second request, Lender’s approval shall be deemed to be given.

          Section 5.18     Alterations. Lender’s prior approval shall be required in connection with any alterations to any Improvements (a) that may have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) the cost of which (including any related alteration, improvement or replacement) is reasonably anticipated to exceed the Alteration Threshold, or (c) that are structural in nature, which approval may be

51


granted or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion. If the total unpaid amounts incurred and to be incurred with respect to any alterations to the Improvements shall at any time exceed the Alteration Threshold, Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender as security for the payment of such amounts and as additional security for Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents any of the following: (i) cash, (ii) U.S. Obligations, (iii) other securities acceptable to Lender (provided that Lender shall have received a Rating Agency Confirmation as to the form and issuer of same), or (iv) a completion bond (provided that Lender shall have received a Rating Agency Confirmation as to the form and issuer of same). Such security shall be in an amount equal to the excess of the total unpaid amounts incurred and to be incurred with respect to such alterations to the Improvements over the Alteration Threshold.

          Section 5.19    Access Laws.

                    (a)          Borrower agrees that the Property shall at all times comply with the requirements of the Access Laws.

                    (b)          Notwithstanding any provisions set forth herein or in any other document regarding Lender’s approval of alterations of the Property, Borrower shall not alter the Property in any manner which would increase Borrower’s responsibilities for compliance with the applicable Access Laws without the prior written approval of Lender. The foregoing shall apply to tenant improvements constructed by Borrower or by any of its tenants. Lender may condition any such approval upon receipt of a certificate of an architect, engineer or other person acceptable to Lender regarding compliance with applicable Access Laws.

                    (c)          Borrower covenants and agrees to give prompt notice to Lender of the receipt by Borrower of any complaints related to any violations of any Access Laws and of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations which relate to compliance with applicable Access Laws.

          Section 5.20    Property Management.

                    (a)          Borrower shall cause the Manager to manage the Property in a first class manner. Borrower shall (i) pay all sums required to be paid by Borrower under the Management Agreement, (ii) diligently perform, observe and enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed, observed and enforced and (iii) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any notice to Borrower of any default by Borrower in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed and observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice. Borrower shall comply with all obligations of Borrower under the Assignment of Management Agreement.

                    (b)          Borrower shall not remove or replace the Manager (which, with respect to an Affiliated Manager, shall be deemed to occur upon a change of Control of the Manager) or terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Management Agreement in any material respect (including, without limitation, any increase in the fees paid to Manager) (collectively, a “Management Change”) without (i) Lender’s prior written consent and, (ii) in the event that the Loan or any interest therein is included in a Securitization (A) Rating Agency

52


Confirmation if required by Lender, and (B) a REMIC Opinion if required by Lender. As conditions precedent to any replacement of the Manager, Borrower shall (i) deliver to Lender, for Lender’s review and approval, a copy of the new Management Agreement, (ii) execute and cause the new manager of the Property to execute an Assignment of Management Agreement in form and substance acceptable to Lender, (iii) cause the new manager to assume each and every other obligation of Manager under the Loan Documents, (iv) deliver to Lender evidence satisfactory to Lender of the payment by Borrower or the prior Manager of all leasing commissions and brokerage fees under the prior Management Agreement, and Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Lender with respect to the unpaid amount of any such leasing commissions and brokerage fees, (v) pay all of Lender’s costs and expenses, and, in the event that the Loan or any interest therein is included in a Securitization, any Rating Agency costs and expenses, incurred in connection with such replacement (including, without limitation, all reasonable attorney’s fees) and (vi) if the Loan or any interest therein has been included in a Securitization, deliver an Additional Insolvency Opinion to Lender if such new Manager is an Affiliated Manager. If required by Lender, Borrower shall also deliver to Lender (a) a fidelity bond with respect to the actions of the Manager, its officers, directors, employees and agents, in form and amount acceptable to Lender, and (b) certified financial statements of the Manager prepared in accordance with GAAP, and (c) such other information related to Manager’s qualifications and experience as Lender may reasonably request.

                    (c)          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 this Agreement, all the rights, privileges and prerogatives of Borrower under the Management Agreement or to terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Management Agreement in any respect. Any surrender, termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of the Management Agreement without the prior consent of Lender shall be void and of no force and effect. If Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition of the Management Agreement, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, and without waiving or releasing Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Borrower, to the end that the rights of Borrower in, to and under the Management Agreement shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. Lender and any Person designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time for the purpose of taking any such action. If Manager shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice sent to Borrower of default under the Management Agreement, 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, from time to time, cause Manager to deliver such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Borrower with the terms of the Management Agreement as may be requested by Lender. Borrower shall exercise each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of the Management Agreement upon demand by Lender made at any time within one (1) year of the last day upon which any such option may be exercised, and Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact to exercise any such option in the name of and upon behalf of Borrower, which

53


power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest. Any sums expended by Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt, shall be secured by the Lien of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor.

                    (d)          Borrower covenants and agrees, that, if (i) an Event of Default exists, or (ii) a default or event of default exists under the Management Agreement beyond any applicable notice or cure period, or (iii) Manager becomes subject to any Bankruptcy Action, Borrower shall, at the request of Lender, terminate the Management Agreement, and require Manager to transfer its responsibility for the management of the Property to a management company selected by, or otherwise acceptable to, Lender, and otherwise meeting the requirements of Section 5.20(b) hereof.

          Section 5.21    Compliance with Anti-Terrorism Laws.

                    (a)          No Covered Entity will become a Sanctioned Person. No Covered Entity, either in its own right or through any third party, will (a) have any of its assets in a Sanctioned Country or in the possession, custody or control of a Sanctioned Person in violation of any Anti-Terrorism Law; (b) do business in or with, or derive any of its income from investments in or transactions with, any Sanctioned Country or Sanctioned Person in violation of any Anti-Terrorism Law; (c) engage in any dealings or transactions prohibited by any Anti-Terrorism Law or (d) use the Loan proceeds to fund any operations in, finance any investments or activities in, or, make any payments to, a Sanctioned Country or Sanctioned Person in violation of any Anti-Terrorism Law. The funds used to repay the Obligations will not be derived from any unlawful activity. Each Covered Entity shall comply with all Anti-Terrorism Laws.

                    (b)          Borrower covenants and agrees that it shall immediately notify Lender in writing upon the occurrence of a Reportable Compliance Event.

                    (c)          Borrower shall perform reasonable due diligence to ensure that at all times throughout the term of the Loan, including after giving effect to any Permitted Transfers, that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.1.12 hereof remain true, correct and complete.

                    (d)          To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower that opens an account. What this means: when Borrower opens an account, Lender will ask for the business name, business address, taxpayer identifying number and other information that will allow Lender to identify Borrower, such as organizational documents. For some businesses and organizations, Lender may also need to ask for identifying information and documentation relating to certain individuals associated with the business or organization.

          Section 6.7     Lender’s Rights. Lender reserves the right to condition the consent to any Transfer requested hereunder that is not a Permitted Transfer (a “Prohibited Transfer”)

59

                    (b)          All insurance provided for in Section 7.1(a) hereof shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), in such forms and, from time to time after the date hereof, in such amounts as may be satisfactory to Lender, issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and approved by Lender, and companies providing coverage shall comply with the following requirements:

ability/financial strength rating of A, Class VIII by Best’s Key Rating Guide as well as a rating of A or higher from Standard & Poor’s, or the equivalent rating, from either Fitch or Moody’s. Earthquake (if required) must be covered by an insurance company having a rating of A, Class VIII by Best’s Key Rating Guide or a rating of A3 (or equivalent) from Moody’s or A- by Standard & Poor’s. Borrower shall provide to Lender copies or other evidence satisfactory to Lender of all insurance required to be maintained pursuant to Section 7.1(a) hereof.

                                  (ii)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower elects to have its insurance coverage provided by a syndicate of insurers or provided pursuant to a layered insurance program, then, if such syndicate or layered insurance program consists of five (5) or more insurers, (A) at least sixty percent (60%) of the insurance coverage (or seventy-five percent (75%) if such syndicate or layered insurance program consists of four (4) or fewer members) and one hundred (100%) of the first layer of such insurance coverage shall be provided by Qualified Insurers and (B) the remaining forty percent (40%) of the insurance coverage (or the remaining twenty-five percent (25%) if such syndicate consists of four (4) or fewer members) shall be provided by insurance companies having a rating of “BBB” or better by S&P and “Baa2” or better by Moody’s, if Moody’s is rating the Securities and rates the insurance companies or, if not rated by S&P or by Moody’s, then by insurance companies having a rating of A-, Class VIII by Best’s Key Rating Guide.

                    (c)          Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender, Borrower shall deliver evidence satisfactory to Lender of the renewal of all of the Policies and evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums or assessments due thereunder (the “Insurance Premiums”).

                    (d)          Borrower shall not obtain (i) any umbrella or blanket liability or casualty Policy unless, in each case, such Policy is approved in advance in writing by Lender and Lender’s interest is included therein as provided in this Agreement and such Policy is issued by a Qualified Insurer or (ii) separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required in Section 7.1(a) hereof to be furnished by, or which may be required to be furnished by, Borrower. In the event Borrower obtains separate insurance or an umbrella or a blanket policy, Borrower shall notify Lender of the same and shall cause certified copies of each Policy to be delivered as required in Section 7.1(a) hereof. Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Property a value that is at least equal to the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of Section 7.1(a) hereof. Notwithstanding Lender’s approval of any umbrella or blanket liability or casualty Policy hereunder, Lender reserves the right, in its reasonable good faith business judgment, to require Borrower to obtain a separate Policy or equivalent risk transfer alternative in compliance with this Section 7.1.

                    (e)          All Policies provided for or contemplated by Section 7.1(a) hereof shall name Borrower as the Named Insured and, except for the Policy referenced in Section 7.1(a)(v) hereof, shall name Lender as an additional insured on a form acceptable to Lender, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, earthquake and flood insurance, shall contain a non-contributing standard mortgagee clause acceptable to Lender, in favor of Lender, providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.

63


                    (f)          All Policies provided for in Section 7.1(a) hereof shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:

                                  (i)          no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or any tenant under any Lease or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned; and

                                  (ii)        the Policy shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or cancelled (whether voluntarily, involuntarily, or as a result of non-renewal) without at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an insured. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if liability insurance is provided by a separate Policy, then the foregoing endorsement shall not be required and in such event Borrower (and not the insurer) shall give Lender the notice required by this subsection.

                    (g)          Upon five (5) Business Days written request by Lender, Borrower shall provide certified copies of all Policies required hereunder.

                    (h)          If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence, in the form of a Policy or Acord Certificate and supporting documentation acceptable to Lender, that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, without notice to Borrower to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate, and all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) 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 Security Instrument and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

                    (i)          In the event of a foreclosure of the Security Instrument, 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 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.

                    (j)          If insurance for earthquake or special hazards is obtained by Borrower in its sole discretion and without requirement of Lender, then Borrower, when obtaining such insurance coverage, shall meet the insurance requirements hereof except as to matters requiring Lender’s further approval, and such insurance coverage: (A) shall be within the meaning of a “Policy” or “Policies”; and (B) shall be for the benefit of Lender and all proceeds thereof constitute additional security for the Debt, and Lender shall have all rights with respect to and be entitled to receive all proceeds in the same manner it would receive any Insurance Proceeds in the event the Property is damaged or destroyed by a Casualty or by any risk or loss insured against.

64


                    (k)          Any failure by Lender to insist on full compliance with all of the above insurance requirements at closing does not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to subsequently require full compliance with these requirements.

If the Property 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 7.4 hereof. 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.

                              (J)           the Property Documents will remain in full force and effect during and after the Restoration and a Property Document Event shall not occur as a result of the applicable Casualty, Condemnation and/or Restoration, as applicable;

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

                              (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;

                              (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; and

                              (N)           the Management Agreement in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, shall (1) remain in full force and effect during the Restoration and shall not otherwise terminate as a result of the Casualty or Condemnation or the Restoration or (2) if terminated, shall have been replaced with a manager acceptable to Lender, prior to the opening or reopening of the Property for business with the public.

                              (ii)           The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the payment of the Debt and the performance of the Other Obligations. Subject to Section 7.4(d) hereof, the Net Proceeds (except for Insurance Proceeds from the insurance coverage referred to in Section 7.1(a)(iii)) 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, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialmen’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.

                              (iii)           All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all Licenses required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged

68


in the Restoration as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and the Casualty Consultant. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees, 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, minus the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean 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 7.4(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 7.4(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, subject to Section 7.4(d) hereof, 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 the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, 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 requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy for the Property, and Lender receives an endorsement to such Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the Lien of the Security Instrument 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.

                              (vi)           If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, if any, 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 before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender 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 7.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the payment of the Debt and the performance of the Other Obligations.

69


                              (vii)           Subject to Section 7.4(d) hereof, 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 7.4(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, and provided no Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower.

                    (c)           All 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 7.4(b)(vii) may be retained and applied by Lender 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. If Lender shall receive and retain Net Proceeds, the Lien of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received and retained by Lender and actually applied by Lender in reduction of the Debt.

                     (d)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.4 hereof, in the event that the Loan or any interest therein is included in a Securitization, and if immediately following the release of the Property from the Lien of the Security Instrument as a result of any Condemnation, the Real Property Value to Loan Ratio is not at least eighty percent (80%), then all of the Net Proceeds realized by Borrower for purposes of computing gain or loss under Section 1001 of the Code as a result of such Condemnation shall be applied to the principal amount of the Debt if and to the extent necessary for the Loan to remain a “qualified mortgage” in accordance with the requirements of Section 860(G)(a)(3) of the Code, and any then applicable U.S. Department of Treasury regulations or revenue procedures issued pursuant thereto, including, without limitation, to the extent then applicable to any REMIC Trust, Revenue Procedure 2010-30. In Lender’s discretion, Lender may require a REMIC Opinion in connection with any such Condemnation.

74


                    (a)           On the Closing Date, each of the Reserve Accounts shall be established by Lender in an Eligible Account at an Eligible Institution.

                    (b)           Borrower shall pay Lender the Disbursement Fee as a condition to each disbursement from the Reserve Accounts (other than the Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Account), as compensation for Lender’s review, analysis and processing of such disbursement.

                    (c)           Borrower shall assign to Lender all rights and claims Borrower may have against all persons or entities supplying labor or materials in connection with the Replacements or the Required Repairs; provided, however, that Lender may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

                    (d)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon the written request of Borrower, Lender shall make disbursements from any Reserve Account (other than the Property Tax and Insurance Premium Escrow Account) jointly payable to Borrower and the person or entity being paid; provided, however, Lender reserves the right to charge a fee of $50.00 for each joint check issued by Lender. In the event of such a joint disbursement, Borrower shall not be required to have paid for such work prior to requesting the reimbursement, but Borrower shall be required to have satisfied all the other conditions of this Agreement for such disbursement.

                    (e)           The insufficiency of any balance in any Reserve Account shall not relieve Borrower from its obligation to pay the Debt (except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of any Reserve Account), to fulfill any preservation or maintenance covenants in the Loan Documents, or to perform the Other Obligations.

                    (f)           Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender reserves the right, exercisable at its sole option, to apply the Reserve Funds to the payment of the Debt, in such order, manner, amounts, times and priority as Lender in its sole discretion determines (including to the payment of the items for which the Reserve Funds were established, if Lender so elects in its sole discretion), and such reserved rights shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

                    (g)           Each Reserve Fund and each Reserve Account shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions set forth in Article XII hereof.

          Section 9.2       Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund.

                    9.2.1       Deposits. In addition to the initial deposits with respect to Property Taxes and, if applicable Insurance Premiums made by Borrower to Lender on the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date (a) a percentage of the Property Taxes (the “Monthly Property Tax Deposit”) that Lender estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to ratably accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Property Taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to their respective due dates and (b) a percentage of the Insurance Premiums (the “Monthly Insurance Premium Deposit”) that Lender estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof in

75


order to ratably accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said amounts in (a) and (b) above hereinafter called the “Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund”), which Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall be deposited by Lender into an Account established to hold such fund (the “Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Account”).

                    9.2.2      Disbursements. Lender will apply the Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund to payments of Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Sections 5.2 and 7.1(b) hereof. In making any payment relating to the Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Property Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax Lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall exceed the amounts due for Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Sections 5.2 and 7.1(b) hereof, respectively, Lender shall credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund. In allocating such excess, Lender may communicate with the Person shown on the records of Lender to be the owner of the Property. Any amount remaining in the Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund after the Debt has been paid in full shall be returned to Borrower.

                    9.2.3       Insufficiency. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund is not or will not be sufficient to pay Property Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth above, Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to delinquency of the Property Taxes and/or thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the Policies, as the case may be.

                    9.2.4      Conditional Monthly Property Tax Deposit Waiver. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender agrees to waive the requirement for Monthly Property Tax Deposits so long as the Reserve Waiver Conditions are satisfied. If at any time during the term of the Loan Borrower fails to satisfy the Reserve Waiver Conditions with respect to the Monthly Property Tax Deposit, Borrower shall make a True Up Payment with respect to the same into the Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Account.

                    9.2.5      Conditional Monthly Insurance Deposit Waiver. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender agrees to waive the requirement for the Monthly Insurance Premium Deposit so long as the Reserve Waiver Conditions are satisfied. If at any time during the term of the Loan Borrower fails to satisfy the Reserve Waiver Conditions with respect to the Monthly Insurance Premium Deposit, Borrower shall make a True Up Payment with respect to the same into the Property Tax and Insurance Escrow Account.

          Section 9.3      Business Interruption Insurance Account.

                    9.3.1      Deposits. Lender shall deposit all Business Interruption Insurance Proceeds received by Lender into an Account established to hold such funds (the “Business

76


Interruption Insurance Account”). If Borrower receives any Business Interruption Insurance Proceeds directly, Borrower shall deposit such funds into the Business Interruption Insurance Account.

                    9.3.2       Disbursements. So long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, and so long as Lender has not otherwise elected to apply Net Proceeds to the Debt pursuant to Section 7.4(c) or Section 7.4(d) hereof, during the period of any Restoration and during the extended period of indemnity described in Section 7.1(a)(iii) hereof (collectively, the “Restoration Period”), upon the written request of Borrower, which request shall be made no more often than one time in any calendar month, Lender will disburse funds in the Business Interruption Insurance Account to Borrower, as and when the lost rental income covered by such insurance would have been payable, to pay the following items in the following order of priority to the extent that Rents collected by Borrower are insufficient to pay the following items:

                    (a)           First, to Lender, funds sufficient to pay the Monthly Property Tax Deposit;

                    (b)           Next, to Lender, funds sufficient to pay the Monthly Insurance Premium Deposit;

                    (c)           Next, to Lender, funds sufficient to pay the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount;

                    (d)           Next, to Lender, funds sufficient to pay late payment charges and any other amounts then due under the Loan Documents including, without limitation, any unpaid reimbursable costs and expenses incurred by Lender on Borrower’s behalf or in the enforcement of Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents, if any;

                    (e)           Next, to Lender, funds sufficient to pay the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit;

                    (f)           Next, to Lender, funds sufficient to pay the TILC Reserve Monthly Deposit;

                    (g)           Next, to Borrower, funds sufficient to pay all Operating Expenses due pursuant to an Annual Budget for such calendar month, to the extent such Operating Expenses are fixed expenses that are incurred during any Restoration Period;

                    (h)           Next, to Servicer, for the payment of the Servicing Fee; and

                    (i)           So long as no Default has occurred or is continuing, any amount remaining in the Business Interruption Insurance Account after the Restoration Period, net of any reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the Restoration or the disbursements from the Business Interruption Insurance Account, shall be returned to Borrower.

                    9.3.3      Insufficiency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lender determines, in its good faith business judgment, that the Business Interruption Insurance Funds will not be sufficient to pay the items set forth in Section 9.3.2(a) through Section 9.3.2(i) hereof during the

77


remainder of the Restoration Period, Lender shall so inform Borrower in writing, and Borrower shall not thereafter be entitled to any disbursement to pay Operating Expenses pursuant to Section 9.3.2(i) hereof.

          Section 9.4     Required Repair Fund.

                    9.4.1      Deposits. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall deposit with Lender the amount for the Property set forth on Exhibit C hereto to perform the Required Repairs (as hereinafter defined). Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Required Repair Fund”, which Required Repair Fund shall be deposited by Lender into an Account established to hold such fund (the “Required Repair Account”).

                    9.4.2     Disbursements. Lender shall disburse to Borrower all or portions of the Required Repair Fund from time to time upon satisfaction by Borrower of each of the following conditions:

                    (a)         Borrower has delivered to Lender an Officer’s Certificate, in a form satisfactory to Lender, specifying the amount of the requested disbursement and the Required Repairs completed and certifying that all such Required Repairs have been completed and all costs in connection therewith have been paid. Simultaneously with submitting such Officer’s Certificate Borrower shall also submit copies of Lien waivers from the general contractor, any subcontractors and all materialmen and suppliers and such other evidence, as may be required by Lender, showing that they have been paid for all work and that no Liens are claimed, or alternatively, Lender may make payment directly to the contractor, subcontractors or suppliers.

Repairs reviewed to verify that the Required Repairs for which reimbursement is being sought have been completed in a good and workmanlike manner and are otherwise acceptable to Lender.

Upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall assign any contract or subcontract to Lender.

                    (c)           In the event Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that any Required Repair is not being performed in a workmanlike or timely manner or that any Required Repair has not been completed in a workmanlike or timely manner, Lender shall have the option to withhold disbursement for such unsatisfactory Required Repair and to proceed under existing contracts or to contract with third parties to complete such Required Repair and to apply the Required Repair Fund toward the labor and materials necessary to complete such Required Repair, without providing any prior notice to Borrower and to exercise any and all other remedies available to Lender upon an Event of Default hereunder.

All sums so expended by Lender, to the extent not from the Required Repair Fund, shall be deemed to have been advanced under the Loan to Borrower and secured by the Security Instrument. For this purpose Borrower constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful attorney in fact with full power of substitution to complete or undertake the Required Repair in the name of Borrower. Such power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. Borrower empowers said attorney in fact as follows: (i) to use the Required Repair Fund for the purpose of making or completing the Required Repairs; (ii) to make such additions, changes and corrections to the Required Repairs as shall be necessary or desirable to complete the Required Repairs; (iii) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, architects and inspectors as shall be required for such purposes; (iv) to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may become Liens against the Property, or as may be necessary or desirable for the

                    (f)          Borrower shall permit Lender and Lender’s agents and representatives (including, without limitation, Lender’s engineer, architect, or inspector) or third parties making Required Repairs pursuant to this Section 9.4.3 to enter onto the Property during normal business hours (subject to the rights of tenants under Leases) to inspect the progress of any Required Repairs and all materials being used in connection therewith, to examine all plans and shop drawings relating to such Required Repairs which are or may be kept at the Property, and to complete any Required Repairs made pursuant to this Section 9.4.3. Borrower shall cause all contractors and subcontractors to cooperate with Lender or Lender’s representatives or such other persons described above in connection with inspections described in this Section 9.4.3(f) or the completion of Required Repairs pursuant to this Section 9.4.3.

                    (g)          Lender may require an inspection of the Property at Borrower’s sole cost and expense prior to making any disbursement from the Required Repair Account in order to verify completion of the Required Repairs for which reimbursement is sought. Lender may require that such inspection be conducted by an appropriate independent qualified professional selected by Lender and/or may require a copy of a certificate of completion by an independent qualified professional acceptable to Lender prior to the disbursement of any amounts from the Required Repair Account.

                    (h)          The Required Repairs and all materials, equipment, fixtures, or any other item comprising a part of any Required Repair shall be constructed, installed or completed, as applicable, free and clear of all mechanic’s, materialmen’s or other Liens (except for those Liens existing on the date of this Agreement which have been approved in writing by Lender).

                    (i)          All Required Repairs shall comply with all applicable Legal Requirements of all Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction over the Property and applicable insurance requirements including, without limitation, applicable building codes, special use permits, environmental regulations, and requirements of insurance underwriters.

                    9.4.4     Failure to Make Required Repairs. It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement if Borrower fails to comply with any provision of this Section 9.4 and such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after notice from Lender. Upon the occurrence of such an Event of Default, Lender may use the Required Repair Fund (or any portion thereof) for any purpose, including but not limited to completion of the Required Repairs as provided in Section 9.4.3, or for any other repair or replacement to the Property or toward payment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole discretion.

          Section 10.2    Remedies.

                    (a)          Upon the occurrence 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 Debt 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 or any other Collateral.

                    (b)          With respect to Borrower and the Property, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to the Property or any other Collateral for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority to the Property or any other Collateral, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the Property or all of the other Collateral or any part thereof, in its discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Security Instrument in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instrument then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover such delinquent payments or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the

91


entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose the Security Instrument to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Security Instrument as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Security Instrument to secure payment of sums secured by the Security Instrument and not previously recovered.

                    (c)           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 five (5) days after written notice has been given to Borrower by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Following an Event of Default, Borrower shall be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents.

          Section 10.3     Remedies Cumulative; Waivers. 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 singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion. 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if a Default is continuing (i) Lender is not 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 other Collateral and the Security Instrument has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.

At the request of Lender, Borrower shall appoint, as its agent, a registrar and transfer agent (the “Registrar”) reasonably acceptable to Lender which, subject to such reasonable regulations as Lender shall provide, shall maintain such books and records as are necessary for the registration and transfer of the Note in a manner that shall cause the Note to be considered to be in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code. The option to convert the Note into registered form once exercised may not be revoked. Any agreement setting out the rights and obligations of the Registrar shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Lender. Borrower may revoke the appointment of any person as Registrar, effective upon the effectiveness of the appointment of a replacement Registrar, which shall also be reasonably acceptable to Lender. The Registrar shall not be entitled to any fee from

Borrower or Lender or any other lender in respect of transfers of the Note and other Loan Documents.

          Section 11.6     Mezzanine Financing. In connection with any Secondary Market Transaction, Lender shall have the right at any time to divide the Loan into two or more parts: a mortgage loan (the “Mortgage Loan”) and one or more mezzanine loans (the “Mezzanine Loan(s)”). The principal amount of the Mortgage Loan plus the principal amount of the Mezzanine Loan(s) shall equal the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to the creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loan(s). In effectuating the foregoing, Mezzanine Lender will make a loan to borrower(s) (the “Mezzanine Borrower(s)”) and Mezzanine Borrower(s) will contribute the amount of the Mezzanine Loan(s) to Borrower and Borrower will apply the contribution to pay down the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loan(s) will be on the same terms and subject to the same conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents except as follows:

                    (a)           Lender shall have the right to establish different interest rates and debt service payments for the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loan(s) and to require the payment of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loan(s) in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender; provided, that (i) the total loan amounts for the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loan(s) shall equal the amount of the Loan immediately prior to the creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loan(s); and (ii) the initial weighted average interest rate of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loan(s) shall initially on the date created equal the interest rate which was applicable to the Loan immediately prior to creation of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loan(s). The Mezzanine Loan(s) will be made pursuant to Lender’s standard mezzanine loan documents. The Mezzanine Loan(s) will be subordinate to the Mortgage Loan and will be governed by the terms of an intercreditor agreement between the holders of the Mortgage Loan and the Mezzanine Loan(s).

                    (b)           Mezzanine Borrower(s) shall (i) be a special purpose, bankruptcy remote entity which conforms to applicable Rating Agency criteria and is otherwise acceptable to Lender and (ii) own directly or indirectly one hundred percent (100%) of Borrower. The security for the Mezzanine Loan shall be a pledge of one hundred percent (100%) of the direct and indirect ownership interests in Borrower.

                    (c)           Mezzanine Borrower(s) and Borrower shall cooperate with all requests of Lender in order to divide the Loan into a Mortgage Loan and one or more Mezzanine Loan(s) and shall execute and deliver such documents as shall be required by Lender and any Rating Agency in connection therewith, including, without limitation, (i) the delivery of non-consolidation opinions, (ii) the modification of organizational documents and Loan Documents (including, without limitation, opting into Article 8 of the UCC) and the certification of any collateral securing the Mezzanine Loan(s), and/or instruments relating to the Property Documents, (iii) authorize Lender to file any UCC financing statements required by Lender to perfect its security interest in the collateral pledged as security for the Mezzanine Loan(s), (iv) execute such other documents reasonably required by Lender in connection with the creation of the Mezzanine Loan(s), including, without limitation, a guaranty substantially similar in form and substance to the Guaranty delivered on the date hereof in connection with the Loan, an

100


environmental indemnity substantially similar in form and substance to the Environmental Indemnity delivered on the date hereof in connection with the Loan and a conditional assignment of management agreement substantially similar in form and substance to the Assignment of Management Agreement delivered on the date hereof in connection with the Loan, (v) deliver appropriate authorization, execution and enforceability opinions with respect to the Mezzanine Loan(s) and amendments to the Mortgage Loan, and (vi) deliver an “Eagle 9” or equivalent UCC title insurance policy, satisfactory to Lender, insuring the perfection and priority of the Lien on the collateral pledged as security for the Mezzanine Loan(s).

                    (d)           All third party costs and expenses incurred by Lender, Borrower or any Guarantor in connection with Borrower’s or each Guarantor’s complying with requests made under this Section 11.6, including, without limitation, UCC insurance premiums, shall be paid by Borrower and each Guarantor.

XII.     ACCOUNTS AND ACCOUNT COLLATERAL

Borrower hereby grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in each of the Accounts and the Account Collateral, as additional security for the payment of the Debt and the performance of the Other Obligations.

          Section 12.5     No Other Security Interest.

101


          Section 12.6     Change of Account Names. In the event Lender transfers or assigns the Loan, Borrower acknowledges that each applicable Eligible Institution at which any Account has been established, at Lender’s request, shall change the name of such Account to the name of the transferee, beneficiary or assignee, as applicable.

          Section 12.8     Limitations on Liability of Lender.

                    (a)           Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof or as otherwise expressly provided herein, Lender shall have no duty with respect to any Account Collateral in its possession or control, or any income thereon or the preservation of rights against any Person or otherwise with respect thereto. Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any such Account Collateral if such Account Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Lender accords its own property, it being understood and agreed that Lender shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Account Collateral, or for any diminution in value thereof, by reason of any act or omission of Lender, its Affiliates, agents, employees or bailees, except to the extent such loss or damage results from Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, provided that nothing in this Section 12.8(a) shall be deemed to relieve Lender from the duties and standard of care which, as a commercial bank, it generally owes to depositors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender shall have no liability to any Person based upon its errors in judgment, its performance of its duties with respect to any of the Account Collateral under this Agreement, any claimed failure to perform such duties, any action taken or omitted in good faith or any mistake of fact or Law; provided that Lender shall be liable for damages arising out of its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

102


                    (b)           The duties of Lender in its capacity as the holder of any Account Collateral in its possession or control pursuant to this Agreement are purely ministerial. In such capacity, Lender is acting as a stakeholder for the accommodation of Borrower and is not responsible or liable in any manner whatsoever related to any signature, notice, resolution, request, waiver, consent, receipt, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other paper or document pursuant to which Lender may act with respect to any such Account Collateral, including, without limitation, terms and conditions, sufficiency, correctness, genuineness, validity, form of execution, or the identity, authority or right of any person executing or depositing the same. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender shall be protected in acting upon any signature, notice, resolution, request, waiver, consent, receipt, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine, and Lender may assume that any Person purporting to act on behalf of Borrower giving any of the foregoing in connection with any Account Collateral in Lender’s possession or control has been duly authorized to do so. Lender may consult with counsel, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any such action taken or suffered by Lender in good faith in accordance herewith.

                    (c)           Lender shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any cash, instruments, wire transfer or any other property delivered to it hereunder, for the value or collectability of any check or other instrument so delivered or for any representation made or obligations assumed by Borrower or any other party to the Loan Documents. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to obligate Lender to deliver any cash or any other funds or property referred to herein, unless the same shall have first been received by Lender pursuant to this Agreement.

          Section 12.9     Indemnity. BORROWER HEREBY INDEMNIFIES AND HOLDS THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES HARMLESS AGAINST ANY LIABILITIES WHICH ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY MAY INCUR ARISING FROM OR RELATED IN ANY WAY TO:

                    (b)           THE PERFORMANCE OF THE REPLACEMENTS;

                    (c)           THE PERFORMANCE OF THE REQUIRED REPAIRS.

          The amount of any such Liabilities shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date any such Liabilities are incurred to the date of payment to the Indemnified Party, shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt, shall be secured by the Lien of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand therefor.

103


          Section 12.10     Disbursement of Disputed Funds. In the event any adverse claims are made upon the funds in any Account Collateral in the possession or control of Lender, then, at Lender’s option: (a) Lender shall not deliver such Account Collateral to any Person, shall refuse to comply with any claims on it and shall continue to hold such Account Collateral until (i) Lender, Borrower and any other Person who may have asserted a claim upon any such Account Collateral shall agree in writing to a delivery of such Account Collateral, in which event Lender shall then deliver such Account Collateral in accordance with such written agreement, or (ii) Lender receives a certified copy of a final and non-appealable judgment or order of a court of competent jurisdiction directing the delivery of such Account Collateral, in which event Lender shall then deliver such Account Collateral in accordance with such judgment or order; or (b) if Lender shall receive a written notice advising that litigation over any Account Collateral has been commenced, Lender may deposit such Account Collateral with the Clerk of the Court in which such litigation is pending; or (c) Lender may take affirmative steps to (i) substitute for itself an impartial party reasonably satisfactory to Lender and Borrower, (ii) deposit such Account Collateral with a court of competent jurisdiction, or (iii) commence an action for interpleader, the costs thereof to be borne by Borrower.

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein, therein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto and thereto 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 Debt is outstanding and unpaid unless a longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Whenever in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document any of the parties hereto or thereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the legal representatives, successors and assigns of such party.

Prior to a Securitization, whenever pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document the Rating Agencies are given any right to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove 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.

104


           Section 13.3     Governing Law.

                   (a)           This Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents will be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State where the Land is located without regard to principles of conflicts of laws, provided that to the extent any of such Laws may now or hereafter be preempted by Federal Law, in which case such Federal Law shall so govern and be controlling. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BORROWER HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM TO ASSERT THAT THE LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION GOVERNS THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Note, or any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no notice to, or demand on Borrower, shall entitle Borrower to any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

          Section 13.5     Nonwaiver. 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 the Note or 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, the Note 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, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact to execute such further instruments and documents in the name of and upon behalf of Borrower, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest. With respect to any of the Collateral in which a security interest is not perfected by the filing of a financing statement, Borrower consents and agrees to undertake, and to cooperate fully with Lender, to perfect the security interest granted to Lender in such Collateral. Without limiting the foregoing, if and to the extent any of the Collateral is held by a bailee for the benefit of Borrower, Borrower shall promptly notify Lender thereof and, if required by Lender, promptly obtain an acknowledgment from such bailee that is satisfactory to Lender and confirms that such

106


bailee holds such Collateral for the benefit of Lender as secured party and shall only act upon instructions from Lender with respect to such Collateral.

          Section 13.8     Waiver of Trial by Jury. BORROWER HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM OF ANY NATURE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE, RELATING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THE LOAN, THE APPLICATION FOR THE LOAN, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF LENDER, OR ANY OF ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, DIRECTORS OR AGENTS, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH RESPECT TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY BORROWER, AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. LENDER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY SUCH ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY BORROWER.

          Section 13.9     Headings. The Article and/or Section headings and the Table of Contents in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

          Section 13.10    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 13.11     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 Creditors Rights 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 13.12     Waiver of Automatic or Supplemental Stay. In the event of the filing of any voluntary or involuntary petition under the Bankruptcy Code by or against Borrower (other than an involuntary petition filed by or joined by Lender), Borrower shall not assert, or request any other party to assert, that the automatic stay under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code shall operate or be interpreted to stay, interdict, condition, reduce or inhibit the ability of the Lender to enforce any rights it has by virtue of this Agreement, or any other rights that Lender has, whether now or hereafter acquired, against any Guarantor. Further, Borrower shall not seek a

107


supplemental stay or any other relief, whether injunctive or otherwise, pursuant to Section 105 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other provision therein to stay, interdict, condition, reduce or inhibit the ability of Lender to enforce any rights it has by virtue of this Agreement against any Guarantor. The waivers contained in this paragraph are a material endorsement to Lender’s willingness to make the Loan, and Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no grounds exist for equitable relief which would bar, delay or impede the exercise by Lender of its rights and remedies against Borrower or any Guarantor.

          Section 13.13     Bankruptcy Acknowledgment. In the event the Property or any interest therein becomes property of any bankruptcy estate or subject to any state or federal insolvency proceeding, then Lender shall immediately become entitled, in addition to all other relief to which Lender may be entitled under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to obtain: (a) an order from the Bankruptcy Court or other appropriate court granting immediate relief from any automatic stay laws (including Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code) so to permit Lender to pursue its rights and remedies against Borrower as provided under this Agreement and all other rights and remedies of Lender at law and in equity under applicable state law; and (b) an order from the Bankruptcy Court prohibiting Borrower’s use of all “cash collateral” as defined under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. In connection with any such orders, Borrower shall not contend or allege in any pleading or petition that Lender does not have sufficient grounds for relief from the automatic stay. Any bankruptcy petition or other action taken by Borrower to stay, condition, or inhibit Lender from exercising its remedies are hereby admitted by Borrower to be in bad faith and Borrower further admits that Lender would have just cause for relief from the automatic stay in order to take such actions authorized by state Law.

          Section 13.14     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 13.15     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, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.

          Section 13.16     Expenses; Indemnity.

                    (a)             Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse, Lender upon receipt of written notice from Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender or

                    (b)           BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED ON, INCURRED BY, OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY IN ANY MANNER RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF (I) ANY BREACH BY BORROWER OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER, OR ANY MATERIAL MISREPRESENTATION BY BORROWER CONTAINED IN, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR (II) THE USE OR INTENDED USE OF THE PROCEEDS OF THE LOAN; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT BORROWER SHALL NOT HAVE ANY OBLIGATION TO LENDER HEREUNDER TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LIABILITIES ARISE FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE, FRAUD, ILLEGAL ACTS OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF LENDER. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE UNDERTAKING TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS SET FORTH IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE MAY BE UNENFORCEABLE BECAUSE IT VIOLATES ANY LAW OR PUBLIC POLICY, BORROWER SHALL PAY THE MAXIMUM PORTION THAT IT IS PERMITTED TO PAY AND SATISFY UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE PAYMENT AND SATISFACTION OF ALL LIABILITIES INCURRED BY THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES.

109


                    (c)             Wherever pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document it is provided that Borrower pay any costs and expenses, such costs and expenses shall include, but not be limited to, reasonable legal fees and disbursements of Lender, whether with respect to retained firms, the reimbursement for the expenses of in-house staff or otherwise.

          Section 13.18     Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement, the Note 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.

          Section 13.19     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 between Borrower and Lender be solely that of debtor and creditor, and that Lender shall have no fiduciary or other special relationship with Borrower. Nothing herein or therein is intended to, nor shall anything contained herein or therein be construed to, constitute Lender as a joint venturer, partner, tenant in common, joint tenant or agent of Borrower, nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender, nor to render Lender liable for any debts, obligations, acts, omissions, representations or contracts of Borrower.

                    (b)            This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.

          Section 13.20     Publicity. Except as required by law, all news releases, publicity or advertising, other than securities filings made in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, 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, PNC Bank, or any of their Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender. Lender may, at any time

110


and without further consent from Borrower, publicize the Closing Date, the amount of the Loan and the name of the Property in tombstone advertisements.

          Section 13.21     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 partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Property, and agrees not to 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 Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

          Section 13.22     Waiver of Counterclaim. 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.

          Section 13.23     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 13.24     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 other than Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, Inc. BORROWER HEREBY AGREES TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD LENDER HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, LIABILITIES, COSTS AND EXPENSES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING LENDER’S ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND EXPENSES) IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR ARISING FROM A CLAIM BY ANY PERSON THAT SUCH PERSON ACTED ON BEHALF OF BORROWER OR LENDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN. The provisions of this Section 13.24 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.

111


          Section 13.25     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 13.26     Assignments. None of the Borrower, SPE Component Entity or any Guarantor may Transfer this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any of their respective rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder, except as expressly permitted pursuant to the terms and provisions of Section 6.2 hereof. If Borrower is a partnership, the agreements contained herein and in the other Loan Documents shall remain in force and be applicable, notwithstanding any changes in the individuals or entities comprising the partnership, and the term “Borrower” as used herein, shall include any alternate or successor partnership, but any predecessor partnership and their partners shall not thereby be released from any liability. If Borrower is a corporation, the agreements contained herein and in the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and be applicable notwithstanding any changes in the shareholders comprising, or the officers and directors relating to, the corporation, and the term “Borrower” as used herein, shall include any alternate or successor corporation, but any predecessor corporation shall not be relieved of liability hereunder. If Borrower is a limited liability company, the agreements contained herein and in the other Loan Documents shall remain in force and be applicable, notwithstanding any changes in the members comprising the limited liability company, and the term “Borrower” as used herein, shall include any alternate or successor limited liability company, but any predecessor limited liability company and their members shall not thereby be released from any liability. (Nothing in the foregoing sentences shall be construed as a consent to, or a waiver of, any prohibition or restriction on transfers of interests in such partnership, corporation or limited liability company which may be set forth in the Loan Agreement, the Security Instrument or any other Loan Document.)

          Section 13.27     Duplicate Originals; Counterparts. This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents may be executed in any number of duplicate originals, and each duplicate original shall be deemed to be an original. This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents (and each duplicate original) also may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together constitute a fully executed agreement even though all signatures do not appear on the same page. The failure of any party hereto to execute this Agreement, or any counterpart hereof, shall not relieve the other signatories from their obligations hereunder.

XIV.  STATE-SPECIFIC PROVISIONS.

The following provisions shall govern and control in the event of a conflict with any other provision of this Agreement:

          Section 14.1     Maximum Rate. The proceeds of the Note are to be used for business, commercial, investment or other similar purposes and no portion thereof will be used for personal, family or household use. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower and Lender at all times to comply with the applicable Texas law governing the maximum rate or amount of interest payable on the Note or by the other Loan Documents (or

112


applicable United States federal law to the extent that it permits Lender to contract for, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under Texas law) (the “Maximum Rate”). If (i) the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument, or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument, or the other Loan Documents, or (ii) Lender’s exercise of the option herein contained to accelerate the maturity of the Note or any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Borrower’ s and Lender’s express intent that (a) all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender be credited on the principal balance of the Note (or, if the Note has been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and (b) the provisions of this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. All sums contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forebearance and detention of the indebtedness evidenced by this Agreement and by the Note and the Security Instrument, and the other Loan Documents shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the usury ceiling from time to time in effect and applicable to such indebtedness for so long as the Note is outstanding. To the extent that Lender is relying on Chapter 303, as amended, of the Texas Finance Code to determine the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law on the principal of the Note, Lender will utilize the weekly rate ceiling from time to time in effect as provided in such Chapter 303, as amended. To the extent United States federal law permits a greater amount of interest than is permitted under Texas law, Lender will rely on United States federal law instead of such Chapter 303, as amended, for the purpose of determining the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Additionally, to the extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, Lender may, at its option and from time to time, implement any other method of computing the maximum lawful rate under such Chapter 303, as amended, or under other applicable law by giving notice, if required, to Borrower as provided by applicable law now or hereafter in effect. In no event shall the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving triparty accounts) apply to the indebtedness evidenced hereby. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, or in the Note or the Security Instrument, or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration. This Section 13.28.1 will control all agreements between Borrower and Lender.

          Section 14.2     SPECIFIC NOTICE REGARDING INDEMNITIES. IT IS EXPRESSLY AGREED AND UNDERSTOOD THAT THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDES INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS CONTAINED IN SECTIONS 2.3.7, 11.2, 12.9, 13.16 and 13.24) WHICH, IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, COULD INCLUDE AN

113


INDEMNIFICATION BY BORROWER OF LENDER FROM CLAIMS OR LOSSES ARISING AS A RESULT OF LENDER’S OWN NEGLIGENCE.
