Section 2.2    Interest Rate.
2.2.1    Interest Rate.
(a)    Each Component of the Loan shall accrue interest throughout the Term at the Interest Rate applicable to such Component during each Interest Period. The total interest accrued under the Loan shall be the sum of the interest accrued on the outstanding balance of each of the Components. Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Monthly Payment Date the interest accrued or to be accrued on the Loan for the related Interest Period.
(b)    Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Loan shall be a LIBOR Loan. In the event that Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR, then Lender shall forthwith give notice by telephone of such determination, confirmed in writing, to Borrower at least one (1) day prior to the next succeeding Interest Determination Date. If such notice is given, the Loan shall be converted, as of the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period, to a Prime Rate Loan. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to convert a LIBOR Loan to a Prime Rate Loan.
(c)    If, pursuant to the terms hereof, the Loan has been converted to a Prime Rate Loan and Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower absent manifest error) that the event(s) or circumstance(s) which resulted in such conversion shall no longer be applicable, Lender shall give notice by telephone of such determination, confirmed in writing, to Borrower at least one (1) day prior to the next succeeding Interest Determination Date. If such notice is given, the Loan shall be converted, as of the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period, to a LIBOR Loan. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to convert a Prime Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan.
(d)    If the adoption of any requirement of law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall hereafter make it unlawful for Lender to maintain a LIBOR Loan as contemplated hereunder, (i) the obligation of Lender hereunder to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan or to convert a Prime Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan shall be canceled forthwith and (ii) any outstanding LIBOR Loan shall be converted automatically to a Prime Rate Loan on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period, or upon such earlier date as may be required by law. Borrower hereby agrees to promptly pay to Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any costs incurred by Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this Agreement, including without limitation, any interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain the LIBOR Loan hereunder. Lender’s notice of such costs, as certified to Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
2.2.2    Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Components
 

36


and, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, all other portions of the Debt, shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due or, if later, such Default shall have occurred, without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein. Interest at the Default Rate shall be paid immediately upon demand, which demand may be made as frequently as Lender shall elect, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law.
2.2.3    Interest Calculation. Interest on the Loan and other Obligations shall be calculated by multiplying (A) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (B) a daily rate based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year (that is, the Interest Rate expressed as an annual rate divided by 360) by (C) the Outstanding Principal Balance or the amount of such other Obligations, as applicable. The accrual period for calculating interest due on each Monthly Payment Date shall be the Interest Period in which such Monthly Payment Date occurs.
2.2.4    Usury Savings. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be required to pay interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.
2.2.5    Breakage Indemnity. Borrower shall indemnify Lender against any loss or expense which Lender may actually sustain or incur in liquidating or redeploying deposits from third parties acquired to effect or maintain the Loan or any part thereof as a consequence of (i) any payment or prepayment of the Loan or any portion thereof made on a date other than a Monthly Payment Date and (ii) any default in payment or prepayment of the Principal or any part thereof or interest accrued thereon, as and when due and payable (at the date thereof or otherwise, and whether by acceleration or otherwise) (collectively, “Breakage Costs”), provided, Borrower shall not indemnify Lender from any loss or expense arising from Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. Lender shall deliver to Borrower a statement for any such sums which it is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.2.5, which statement shall be binding and conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.2.5 are in addition to Borrower’s obligations to pay any Spread Maintenance Premium applicable to a payment or prepayment of the Loan.
Section 2.3    Loan Payments.
2.3.1    Payments. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Components from the date hereof through and including September 14, 2014 (the “Initial Interest Period”).  On October 9, 2014, and each Monthly Payment Date thereafter during the Term, Borrower shall make a payment of principal and

37


interest equal to the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount, which payment shall be applied in accordance with Article 6. Borrower shall also pay to Lender all amounts required in respect of Reserve Funds as set forth in Article 6.
2.3.2    Payments Generally. After the Initial Interest Period, each interest accrual period thereafter (each, an “Interest Period”) shall commence on the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of a calendar month and ending on (and including) the fourteenth (14th) calendar day of the following calendar month. For purposes of making payments hereunder, but not for purposes of calculating Interest Periods, if the Monthly Payment Date is not a Business Day, then amounts due on such date shall be due on the immediately preceding Business Day. Lender shall have the right from time to time, in its sole discretion, upon not less than ten (10) days prior written notice to Borrower, to change the Monthly Payment Date to a different calendar day and, if requested by Lender, Borrower shall promptly execute an amendment to this Agreement to evidence such change; provided, however, that if Lender shall have elected to change the Monthly Payment Date as aforesaid, Lender shall adjust the Interest Period and the Interest Determination Date accordingly, so that (a) after giving effect to any such change or adjustment, the period of time between the Monthly Payment Date and the end of the Interest Period shall not be greater than five (5) days and (b) the date of each Maturity Date (including the Stated Maturity Date, the First Extended Maturity Date, the Second Extended Maturity Date and the Third Extended Maturity Date) and any other date in the Loan Documents which corresponds with a Monthly Payment Date shall be automatically amended to reflect the Monthly Payment Date as so adjusted. With respect to payments of principal due on any Component on the Maturity Date, interest shall be payable at the Interest Rate, through and including the day immediately preceding such Maturity Date.
2.3.3    Payment on Maturity Date. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the Outstanding Principal Balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Mortgage Documents and the other Loan Documents.
2.3.4    Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or any other sum due under the Loan Documents (other than the Outstanding Principal Balance due and payable on the Maturity Date) is not paid by Borrower on the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of four percent (4%) 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 Borrower Security Agreement, the Mortgage Documents and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by law.
2.3.5    Method and Place of Payment.

(j)    The Release Property is a separate legal parcel from the property remaining encumbered by Mortgages.

(g)    In connection with an Interest Rate Cap Agreement, Borrower shall obtain and deliver to Lender an opinion of counsel from counsel (which counsel may be in-house counsel for the Counterparty) for the Counterparty upon which Lender and its successors and assigns may rely (the “Counterparty Opinion”), under New York law and, if the Counterparty is a non-U.S. entity, the applicable foreign law, which shall provide in relevant part, that: (i) the Counterparty is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has the organizational power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Interest Rate Cap Agreement; (ii) the execution and delivery of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement by the Counterparty, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been and remain duly authorized by all necessary action and do not contravene any provision of its certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or equivalent organizational documents) or any law, regulation or contractual restriction binding on or

49


affecting it or its property; (iii) all consents, authorizations and approvals required for the execution and delivery by the Counterparty of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been obtained and remain in full force and effect, all conditions thereof have been duly complied with, and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for such execution, delivery or performance; and (iv) the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, has been duly executed and delivered by the Counterparty and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Counterparty, enforceable against the Counterparty in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).
2.6.4    [Reserved].
2.6.5    Representations and Warranties. Borrower hereby covenants with, and represents and warrants to Lender as of the Closing Date as follows:
(a)    The Interest Rate Cap Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).
(b)    The Rate Cap Collateral is free and clear of all claims or security interests of every nature whatsoever, except for Permitted Liens and such claims and security interests as are created pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and Borrower has the right to pledge and grant a security interest in the same as herein provided without the consent of any other Person other than any such consent that has been obtained and is in full force and effect.
(c)    The Rate Cap Collateral has been duly and validly pledged hereunder. All consents and approvals required to be obtained by Borrower for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been obtained.
(d)    Giving effect to the aforesaid grant and assignment to Lender, Lender has, as of the date of this Agreement, and as to Rate Cap Collateral acquired from time to time after such date, shall have, a valid, and upon proper filing, perfected and continuing first priority lien upon and security interest in the Rate Cap Collateral, except for Permitted Liens and such claims and security interests as are created pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that no representation or warranty is made with respect to the perfected status of the security interest of Lender in the proceeds of Rate Cap Collateral consisting of “cash proceeds” or “non-cash proceeds” as defined in the UCC except if, and to the extent, the provisions of Section 9-306 of the UCC shall be complied with.
(e)    Except for financing statements filed or to be filed in favor of Lender as secured party, there are no financing statements under the UCC covering any or all of the Rate Cap Collateral and Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, until

50


payment in full of all of the Obligations, execute and file in any public office, any enforceable financing statement or statements covering any or all of the Rate Cap Collateral, except financing statements filed or to be filed in favor of Lender as secured party.
2.6.6    Payments. If Borrower at any time shall be entitled to receive any payments with respect to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, such amounts shall, immediately upon becoming payable to Borrower, be deposited by Counterparty into the Cash Management Account.
2.6.7    Remedies. Subject to the provisions of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, if an Event of Default shall occur and then be continuing:
(a)    Lender, without obligation to resort to any other security, right or remedy granted under any other agreement or instrument, shall have the right to, in addition to all rights, powers and remedies of a secured party pursuant to the UCC, at any time and from time to time, sell, resell, assign and deliver, in its sole discretion, any or all of the Rate Cap Collateral (in one or more parcels and at the same or different times) and all right, title and interest, claim and demand therein and right of redemption thereof, at public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and in connection therewith Lender may grant options and may impose reasonable conditions such as requiring any purchaser to represent that any “securities” constituting any part of the Rate Cap Collateral are being purchased for investment only, Borrower hereby waiving and releasing any and all equity or right of redemption to the fullest extent permitted by the UCC or applicable law. If all or any of the Rate Cap Collateral is sold by Lender upon credit or for future delivery, Lender shall not be liable for the failure of the purchaser to purchase or pay for the same and, in the event of any such failure, Lender may resell such Rate Cap Collateral. It is expressly agreed that Lender may exercise its rights with respect to less than all of the Rate Cap Collateral, leaving unexercised its rights with respect to the remainder of the Rate Cap Collateral, provided, however, that such partial exercise shall in no way restrict or jeopardize Lender’s right to exercise its rights with respect to all or any other portion of the Rate Cap Collateral at a later time or times.
(b)    Lender may exercise, either by itself or by its nominee or designee, in the name of Borrower, all of Lender’s rights, powers and remedies in respect of the Rate Cap Collateral, hereunder and under law.
(c)    Borrower hereby irrevocably, in the name of Borrower or otherwise, authorizes and empowers Lender and assigns and transfers unto Lender, and constitutes and appoints Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, and as its agent, irrevocably, with full power of substitution for Borrower and in the name of Borrower, (i) to exercise and enforce every right, power, remedy, authority, option and privilege of Borrower under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, including any power to subordinate or modify the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (but not, unless an Event of Default exists and is continuing, the right to terminate or cancel the Interest Rate Cap Agreement), or to give any notices, or to take any action resulting in such subordination, termination, cancellation or modification and (ii) in order to more fully vest in Lender the rights and remedies provided for herein, to exercise all of the rights, remedies and powers granted to Lender in this Agreement, and Borrower further authorizes and empowers Lender, as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, and as its agent, irrevocably, with full power of substitution for Borrower and in the name of Borrower, to give any authorization, to furnish any information, to make any demands, to execute any instruments and to take any and all other

51


action on behalf of and in the name of Borrower which in the opinion of Lender may be necessary or appropriate to be given, furnished, made, exercised or taken under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, in order to comply therewith, to perform the conditions thereof or to prevent or remedy any default by Borrower thereunder or to enforce any of the rights of Borrower thereunder. These powers-of-attorney are irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and any similar or dissimilar powers heretofore given by Borrower in respect of the Rate Cap Collateral to any other Person are hereby revoked.
(d)    Lender may, without notice to, or assent by, Borrower or any other Person (to the extent permitted by law), but without affecting any of the Obligations, in the name of Borrower or in the name of Lender, notify the Counterparty, or if applicable, any other counterparty to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, to make payment and performance directly to Lender; extend the time of payment and performance of, compromise or settle for cash, credit or otherwise, and upon any terms and conditions, any obligations owing to Borrower, or claims of Borrower, under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement; file any claims, commence, maintain or discontinue any actions, suits or other proceedings deemed by Lender necessary or advisable for the purpose of collecting upon or enforcing the Interest Rate Cap Agreement; and execute any instrument and do all other things deemed necessary and proper by Lender to protect and preserve and realize upon the Rate Cap Collateral and the other rights contemplated hereby.
(e)    Pursuant to the powers-of-attorney provided for above, Lender may take any action and exercise and execute any instrument which it may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof; provided, however, that Lender shall not be permitted to take any action pursuant to said power-of-attorney that would conflict with any limitation on Lender’s rights with respect to the Rate Cap Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks and other orders for the payment of money made payable to Borrower representing: (i) any payment of obligations owed pursuant to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, (ii) interest accruing on any of the Rate Cap Collateral or (iii) any other payment or distribution payable in respect of the Rate Cap Collateral or any part thereof, and for and in the name, place and stead of Borrower, to execute endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer in respect of any property which is or may become a part of the Rate Cap Collateral hereunder.
(f)    Lender may exercise all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.
(g)    Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement or any of Borrower’s rights hereunder, and without waiving or releasing Borrower from any obligation or default hereunder, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to perform any act or take any appropriate action, as it, in its reasonable judgment, may deem necessary to protect the security of this Agreement, to cure such Event of Default or to cause any term, covenant, condition or obligation required under this Agreement or the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to be performed or observed by Borrower to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Borrower. All amounts advanced by, or on behalf of, Lender in exercising its rights under this Section 2.6.7(g) (including, but not limited to, reasonable legal expenses and disbursements incurred in connection therewith), together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of each such advance, shall be payable by Borrower to Lender upon demand and shall be secured by this Agreement.



52


2.6.8    Sales of Rate Cap Collateral. No demand, advertisement or notice, all of which are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, hereby expressly waived by Borrower, shall be required in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Rate Cap Collateral, except that Lender shall give Borrower at least thirty (30) Business Days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time when and the place where any private sale or other disposition is to be made, which notice Borrower hereby agrees is reasonable, all other demands, advertisements and notices being hereby waived. To the extent permitted by law, Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Rate Cap Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale may have been given, and Lender may without notice or publication adjourn any public or private sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. Upon each private sale of the Rate Cap Collateral of a type customarily sold in a recognized market and upon each public sale, unless prohibited by any applicable statute which cannot be waived, Lender (or its nominee or designee) may purchase any or all of the Rate Cap Collateral being sold, free and discharged from any trusts, claims, equity or right of redemption of Borrower, all of which are hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law, and may make payment therefor by credit against any of the Obligations in lieu of cash or any other obligations. In the case of all sales of the Rate Cap Collateral, public or private, Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind for sale or delivery, including brokers’ and attorneys’ fees and disbursements and any tax imposed thereon. However, the proceeds of sale of Rate Cap Collateral shall be available to cover such costs and expenses, and, after deducting such costs and expenses from the proceeds of sale, Lender shall apply any residual to the payment of the Obligations in the order of priority as set forth in this Agreement.
2.6.9    Public Sales Not Possible. Borrower acknowledges that the terms of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement may prohibit public sales, that the Rate Cap Collateral may not be of the type appropriately sold at public sales, and that such sales may be prohibited by law. In light of these considerations, Borrower agrees that private sales of the Rate Cap Collateral shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonably manner by mere virtue of having been made privately.
2.6.10    Receipt of Sale Proceeds. Upon any sale of the Rate Cap Collateral by Lender hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt by Lender or the officer making the sale or the proceeds of such sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Rate Cap Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to Lender or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or non-application thereof.
2.6.11    Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement. If, in connection with Borrower’s exercise of any Extension Option pursuant to Section 2.7, Borrower delivers a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, all the provisions of this Section 2.6 applicable to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement delivered on the Closing Date shall be applicable to the Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement.
Section 2.7    Extension Options.
2.7.1    Extension Options. Borrower shall have the option (the “First Extension Option”), by written notice (the “First Extension Notice”) delivered to Lender (which notice



53


may be revoked) no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Stated Maturity Date, to extend the Maturity Date to September 9, 2017 (the “First Extended Maturity Date”). In the event Borrower shall have exercised the First Extension Option, Borrower shall have the option (the “Second Extension Option”), by written notice (the “Second Extension Notice”) delivered to Lender (which notice may be revoked) no later than thirty (30) days prior to the First Extended Maturity Date, to extend the First Extended Maturity Date to September 9, 2018 (the “Second Extended Maturity Date”). In the event Borrower shall have exercised the Second Extension Option, Borrower shall have the option (the “Third Extension Option”), by written notice (the “Third Extension Notice”) delivered to Lender (which notice may be revoked) no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Second Extended Maturity Date, to extend the Second Extended Maturity Date to September 9, 2019 (the “Third Extended Maturity Date”). Borrower’s right to so extend the applicable Maturity Date shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent prior to each extension hereunder:
(a)    no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the applicable Extension Date;
(b)    Borrower shall (i) obtain and deliver to Lender not later than the first day of the term of the Loan as extended, one or more Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreements from an Approved Counterparty, in a notional amount equal to the Outstanding Principal Balance, which Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement(s) shall be (A) effective for the period commencing on the Business Day immediately following the then applicable Maturity Date (prior to giving effect to the applicable Extension Option) and ending on the last day of the Interest Period in which the applicable extended Maturity Date occurs and (B) otherwise on same terms set forth in Section 2.6 and at the applicable Strike Price and (ii) execute and deliver an Acknowledgement with respect to each such Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement;
(c)    the Debt Yield as of the most recent Calculation Date is at least equal to or greater than the Closing Date Debt Yield;
(d)    Borrower shall deliver a Counterparty Opinion with respect to the Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement and the related Acknowledgment and shall deliver to Lender an executed Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Protection Agreement;
(e)    All amounts due and payable by Borrower and any other Person pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents as of the Stated Maturity Date, the First Extended Maturity Date, and the Second Extended Maturity Date, as applicable, and all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Lender, including fees and expenses of Lender’s counsel, in connection with the Loan and/or the applicable extension of the Term shall have been paid in full.
If Borrower is unable to satisfy all of the foregoing conditions within the applicable time frames for each, Lender shall have no obligation to extend the Maturity Date hereunder.
2.7.2    Extension Documentation. As soon as practicable following an extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.7, Borrower shall, if requested by Lender, execute and deliver an amendment of and/or restatement of the Note and shall, if requested by Lender, enter into such amendments to the related Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate to evidence the extension of the Maturity Date as provided in this Section 2.7; provided, however,

54


that no failure by Borrower to enter into any such amendments and/or restatements shall affect the rights or obligations of Borrower or Lender with respect to the extension of the Maturity Date.
Section 2.8    Spread Maintenance Premium. Upon any repayment or prepayment of the Loan (including in connection with an acceleration of the Loan but excluding in connection with any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.4.3(a) (except where such prepayment arises as a result of a Voluntary Action) or Section 2.4.3(c)) made prior to the Spread Maintenance Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender on the date of such repayment or prepayment (or acceleration of the Loan) the Spread Maintenance Premium applicable thereto. All Spread Maintenance Premium payments hereunder shall be deemed to be earned by Lender upon the funding of the Loan.
Section 2.9    Increased Costs. If as a result of any Regulatory Change or compliance of Lender therewith, the basis of taxation of payments to Lender or any company in Control of Lender of the principal of or interest on the Loan is changed or Lender or the company in Control of Lender shall be subject to (i) any Tax (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or (ii) any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities, of Lender or any company in Control of Lender is imposed, modified or deemed applicable; or (iii) any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting loans to borrowers subject to LIBOR-based interest rates is imposed on Lender or any company in Control of Lender and Lender determines that, by reason thereof, the cost to Lender or any company in Control of Lender of making, maintaining or extending the Loan to Borrower is increased, or any amount receivable by Lender or any company in Control of Lender hereunder in respect of any portion of the Loan to Borrower is reduced, in each case by an amount deemed by Lender in good faith to be material (such increases in cost and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Increased Costs”), then Lender shall provide notice thereof to Borrower and Borrower agrees that it will pay to Lender upon Lender’s written request such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender or any company in Control of Lender for such Increased Costs to the extent Lender determines that such Increased Costs are allocable to the Loan. If Lender requests compensation under this Section 2.9.1, Lender shall, if requested by notice by Borrower to Lender, furnish to Borrower a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof.
Section 2.10    Taxes.
2.10.1    Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.10, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
2.10.2    Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Loan Party) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Loan Party, then the applicable Loan Party shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law

55


and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be 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 2.10) Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
2.10.3    Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes.
2.10.4    Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties 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 2.10) payable or paid by Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
2.10.5    Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.10, such Loan Party shall deliver to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender.
2.10.6    Status of Lender.
(a)    If Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document then Lender shall deliver to Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower as will enable Borrower to determine whether or not Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.10.6(b)(i), (b)(ii) and (b)(iv) below) shall not be required if in Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Lender.
(b)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(i)    If Lender is a U.S. Person it shall deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by Borrower) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes the Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;


56


(ii)    If Lender is a Foreign Lender it shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by Borrower) on or prior to the date on which it becomes the Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), whichever of the following is applicable:
(A)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(B)    executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(C)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) or 871(h) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or
(D)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(iii)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by Borrower) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(iv)    if a payment made to Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Lender were to fail to

57


comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), Lender shall deliver to Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that Lender has complied with Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iv), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.
2.10.7    Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.10 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.10.7 (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.10.7, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.10.7 the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.10.7 shall 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.
2.10.8    Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.10 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
ARTICLE 3

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Section 3.1    General Representations. Borrower represents and warrants to Lender as of the Closing Date, and with respect to any Borrower TRS as of the date of the formation of such Borrower TRS and delivery of a Borrower TRS Guaranty and Loan Documents hereunder,




58


that, except to the extent (if any) disclosed on Schedule III with reference to a specific subsection of this Section 3.1:
3.1.1    Organization; Special Purpose. Each Loan Party has been duly organized and is validly existing with requisite power and authority to own its properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged. Each Loan Party is duly qualified to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction where it is required to be so qualified in connection with its properties, businesses and operations, except to the extent that failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Loan Party possesses all rights, licenses, permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to entitle it to own its properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged, except to the extent that failure to do so could not in the aggregate reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The sole business of Borrower is the acquisition, ownership, maintenance, sale, transfer, financing, refinancing, management, leasing and operation of the Properties and other activity in furtherance thereof; and the sole business of Equity Owner is acting as the sole member of Borrower and other activity in furtherance thereof, including, providing the Equity Owner Guaranty and the Equity Owner Security Agreement; and the sole business of any Borrower TRS is the acquisition, ownership, maintenance, sale, transfer, financing, refinancing, management, leasing and operation of the Properties and other activity in furtherance thereof, including, providing the Borrower TRS Guaranty and the Borrower TRS Security Agreement. Each Loan Party is a Special Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity.
3.1.2    Proceedings; Enforceability. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by or on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party party thereto in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(ii)    the Policy shall not be canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured (other than in the case of non-payment in which case only ten days prior notice, or the shortest time allowed by applicable Legal Requirement (whichever is longer), will be required) and shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) without such a thirty (30) day notice;

All Policies required pursuant to Section 5.1.1 shall (i) be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the states where the applicable Properties are located and having a rating of “A3” or better by Moody’s or, if Moody’s does not provide a rating of an applicable insurance company, a rating of “A-” or better by S&P or Fitch, provided, however, that if Borrower elects to have its insurance coverage provided by a syndicate of insurers, then, if such syndicate consists of five (5) or more members, (A) at least sixty percent (60%) of the insurance coverage (or seventy-five percent (75%) if such syndicate consists of four (4) or fewer members) and one hundred (100%) of the first layer of such insurance coverage shall be provided by insurance companies having a rating of “A3” or better by Moody’s or, if Moody’s does not provide a rating of an applicable insurance company, a rating of “A-” or better by S&P or Fitch 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 “Baa2” by Moody’s or better or, if Moody’s does not provide a rating of an applicable insurance company, a rating of “BBB” or better by S&P or Fitch; (ii) shall, with respect to all property insurance policies, name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as their interest may appear; (iii) shall, with respect to all property insurance policies and rental loss and/or business interruption insurance policies, contain a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement, or their equivalents, naming Lender as the person to whom all payments made by such insurance company shall be paid; (iv) shall, with respect to all liability policies, name Lender and its successors and/or assigns as an additional insured; (v) shall contain a waiver of subrogation against Lender; (vi) shall contain such provisions as Lender deems reasonably necessary or desirable to protect its interest including endorsements providing (A) that neither Borrower, Lender nor any other party shall be a co-insurer under said Policies, (B) that Lender shall receive at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any modification, reduction or cancellation, and (C) for a deductible per loss of an amount not more than that which is customarily maintained by prudent owners of properties with a standard of operation and maintenance comparable to and in the general vicinity of the Properties, but in no event in excess of an amount reasonably acceptable to Lender; and (vii) shall be satisfactory in form and substance to Lender and shall be approved by Lender as to amounts, form, risk coverage, deductibles, loss payees and insureds.


91


In addition to the insurance coverages described in Section 5.1.1, Borrower shall obtain such other insurance as may from time to time be reasonably required by Lender in order to protect its interests. Certified copies of the Policies shall be delivered to Lender at the address below (or to such other address or Person as Lender shall designate from time to time by notice to Borrower) on the date hereof with respect to the current Policies and within thirty (30) days after the effective date thereof with respect to all renewal Policies:
GERMAN AMERICAN CAPITAL CORPORATION
60 Wall Street, 10th Floor
New York, NY 10005
Attn: Mary Brundage
Borrower shall pay the Insurance Premiums annually in advance as the same become due and payable and shall furnish to Lender evidence of the renewal of each of the Policies with receipts for the payment of the Insurance Premiums or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender (provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to pay such Insurance Premiums nor furnish such evidence of payment to Lender in the event that the amounts required to pay such Insurance Premiums have been deposited into the Insurance Account pursuant to Section 6.3). Within thirty (30) days after request by Lender, Borrower shall obtain such increases in the amounts of coverage required hereunder as may be reasonably requested by Lender, taking into consideration changes in the value of money over time, changes in liability laws, changes in prudent customs and practices.
5.1.3    Special Insurance Reserve. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.1 to the contrary, Borrower shall be permitted to obtain and maintain insurance policies with deductibles in excess of the amounts specified in this Section 5.1, so long as Borrower shall have deposited into and maintains at all times in the Special Insurance Reserve Account an amount equal to the difference between such higher deductible and the applicable deductible specified in this Section 5.1 (such amount, the “Excess Deductible”).
Section 5.2    Casualty. If a Property is damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice thereof to Lender. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. In addition, Lender may participate in any settlement discussions with any insurance companies (and shall approve any final settlement) (i) if an Event of Default is continuing or (ii) with respect to any Casualty in which the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing the Restoration are reasonably expected to be equal to or greater than the Casualty Threshold Amount and Borrower shall deliver to Lender all instruments required by Lender to permit such participation. Any Insurance Proceeds in connection with any Casualty (whether or not Lender elects to settle and adjust the claim or Borrower settles such claim) shall be deposited directly into, or shall be due and payable solely to Lender to be held in, the Casualty and Condemnation Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If Borrower or any party other than Lender receives any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds, Borrower shall immediately deposit into, or deliver such proceeds to Lender to be held in, the Casualty and Condemnation Account and shall endorse, and cause all such third parties to endorse, check payable therefor to the order of Lender. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to endorse any such check payable to the order of Lender. Borrower hereby releases Lender from any and all liability with respect to the settlement and adjustment by Lender of any claims in respect of any Casualty.
    

92


Section 5.3    Condemnation. Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of all or any portion of a Property and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings if an Event of Default is continuing, and in such cases Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings which is reasonably expected to involve an Award of an amount greater than the Casualty Threshold Amount. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including, but not limited to, any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Condemnation Proceeds shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. If Borrower or any party other than Lender receives any Condemnation Proceeds, Borrower shall immediately deposit into, or deliver such proceeds to Lender to be held in, the Casualty and Condemnation Account and shall endorse, and cause all such third parties to endorse, a check payable therefore to the order of Lender. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. Net Proceeds from a Condemnation shall be applied as follows:
(a)    If a partial Condemnation of a Property does not interfere with the use of such Property as a residential rental property, then the Net Proceeds paid by the condemning authority shall be applied to the prepayment of the Debt in accordance with Section 2.4.3(c).
(b)    If a partial Condemnation of a Property does interfere with the use of such Property as a residential rental property or if there occurs a complete Condemnation of a Property (each, a “Fully Condemned Property”), then (i) if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and, within thirty (30) days of the date of the occurrence of such Condemnation, Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to substitute the Fully Condemned Property with a Substitute Property in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.4.3(a), then (A) if Net Proceeds are paid by the condemning authority directly to Borrower subsequent to such substitution, such Net Proceeds may be retained by Borrower (for the avoidance of doubt, Net Proceeds received by Borrower prior to such substitution shall be immediately paid to Lender to be held in the Casualty and Condemnation Account as required by Section 5.2), (B) if Net Proceeds are paid by the condemning authority to Lender, such Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon the consummation of such substitution and (C) Borrower shall provide a Substitute Property in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.4.3(a) and (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or Borrower fails to deliver such an undertaking to Lender, then (A) Lender may retain any Net Proceeds received by it, (B) Borrower shall immediately deliver to Lender any Net Proceeds paid to Borrower, (C) all such Net Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of the Debt in accordance with Section 2.4.3(c) and (D) Borrower shall prepay the Loan in an amount equal to the positive difference between such Net Proceeds and the Allocated Loan Amount for the Fully Condemned Property, together with all interest and other amounts required to be paid in connection therewith under Section 2.4.5 (collectively, the “Fully Condemned Property Prepayment Amounts”). Following Borrower’s written request after either (1) the substitution

93


of a Substitute Property for such Fully Condemned Property in accordance with the conditions set forth above or (2) receipt by Lender of the Net Proceeds and payment by Borrower of the Fully Condemned Property Prepayment Amounts, Lender shall release the Fully Condemned Property from the applicable Mortgage Documents and related Lien, provided, that (x) Borrower has delivered to Lender a draft release (and, in the event the Mortgage and the Assignment of Leases and Rents applicable to the Fully Condemned Property encumbers other Property(ies) in addition to the Fully Condemned Property, such release shall be a partial release that relates only to the Fully Condemned Property and does not affect the Liens and security interests encumbering or on the other Property(ies)) in form and substance appropriate for the jurisdiction in which such Fully Condemned Property is located and shall contain standard provisions protecting the rights of Lender and (y) Borrower shall pay all costs, taxes and expenses associated with such release (including, without limitation, cost to file and record the release and Lender’s reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees).
Section 5.4    Restoration. The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of Properties affected by a Casualty:
(a)    If the Net Proceeds reasonably expected to be received in connection with any single Casualty event is less than the Casualty Threshold Amount, then, (i) if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and, within sixty (60) days of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty, Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to diligently pursue to satisfactory completion the Restoration of the affected Properties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then (A) if Net Proceeds are paid by the insurance company directly to Borrower subsequent to delivering such undertaking, such Net Proceeds may be retained by Borrower (for the avoidance of doubt, Net Proceeds received by Borrower prior to delivering such undertaking shall be immediately paid to Lender to be held in the Casualty and Condemnation Account as required by Section 5.2), (B) if Net Proceeds are paid by the insurance company to Lender, such Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower and (C) Borrower shall conduct the Restoration of the affected Properties in accordance with the terms of Section 5.4(c) and (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or Borrower fails to deliver such an undertaking to Lender, then (A) Lender may retain any Net Proceeds received by it, (B) Borrower shall immediately deliver to Lender any Net Proceeds paid to Borrower as required by Section 5.2, (C) such Net Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of the Debt in accordance with Section 2.4.3(c), (D) Borrower shall prepay the Loan in an amount equal to the positive difference between such Net Proceeds and the Allocated Loan Amount for the affected Properties, together with all interest and other amounts required to be paid in connection therewith under Section 2.4.5, and (E) following Borrower’s written request and receipt by Lender of the Net Proceeds and payment by Borrower of the amounts set forth in clause (D) above, Lender shall release the affected Properties from the applicable Mortgage Documents and related Liens, provided, that (x) Borrower has delivered to Lender draft releases (and, in the event any of the Mortgages and the Assignments of Leases and Rents applicable to any of the affected Properties encumber other Property(ies) in addition to the affected Properties, such release shall be a partial release that relates only to the affected Property(ies) and does not affect the Liens and security interests encumbering or on the other Property(ies)) in form and substance appropriate for the jurisdiction in which such affected Properties are located and shall contain standard provisions protecting the rights of Lender and (y) Borrower shall pay all costs, taxes and expenses associated with such release (including,


94


without limitation, cost to file and record the release and Lender’s reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees).
(b)    If the Net Proceeds reasonably expected to be received in connection with any single Casualty event is greater than the Casualty Threshold Amount, then, (i) if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and, within sixty (60) days of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty, Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to diligently pursue to satisfactory completion the Restoration of the affected Properties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then (A) Borrower shall immediately deliver to Lender to be held in the Casualty and Condemnation Account any Net Proceeds paid to Borrower as required by Section 5.2 and (B) Borrower shall conduct the Restoration of the affected Properties in accordance with the terms of and subject to the conditions of Section 5.4(d) and (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or Borrower fails to deliver such an undertaking to Lender, then (A) Lender may retain any Net Proceeds received by it, (B) Borrower shall immediately deliver to Lender any Net Proceeds paid to Borrower as required by Section 5.2, (C) such Net Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of the Debt in accordance with Section 2.4.3(c), (D) Borrower shall prepay the Loan in an amount equal to the positive difference between such Net Proceeds and the Allocated Loan Amount for the affected Properties, together with all interest and other amounts required to be paid in connection therewith under Section 2.4.5, and (E) following Borrower’s written request and receipt by Lender of the Net Proceeds and payment by Borrower of the amounts set forth in clause (D) above, Lender shall release the affected Properties from the applicable Mortgage Documents and related Liens, provided, that (x) Borrower has delivered to Lender draft releases (and, in the event any of the Mortgages and the Assignments of Leases and Rents applicable to any of the affected Properties encumber other Property(ies) in addition to the affected Properties, such release shall be a partial release that relates only to the affected Property(ies) and does not affect the Liens and security interests encumbering or on the other Property(ies)) in form and substance appropriate for the jurisdiction in which such affected Properties are located and shall contain standard provisions protecting the rights of Lender and (y) Borrower shall pay all costs, taxes and expenses associated with such release (including, without limitation, cost to file and record the release and Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees).
(c)    If Borrower elects to undertake the Restoration of a Property or Properties pursuant to Section 5.4(a), (i) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after such Casualty occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion; (ii) Borrower shall cause the affected Property and the use thereof after the Restoration to be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements and such Property, after Restoration, shall be of the same or better character as prior to such damage or destruction; (iii) the Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements and the Renovation Standards and (iv) 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 reasonably acceptable to Lender.
(d)    If Borrower elects to undertake the Restoration of a Property or Properties pursuant to Section 5.4(b), the following provisions shall apply:


95


(i)    the Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration upon the determination of Lender that the following conditions are met: (i) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after such Casualty occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion; (ii) Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note, which will be incurred with respect to the Properties as a result of the occurrence of the Casualty, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(ii), if applicable, or (3) by other funds of Borrower; (iii) Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) the date six (6) months prior to the Stated Maturity Date, as extended pursuant to Section 2.7, (2) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Lease, (3) such time as may be required under applicable Legal Requirements or (4) six (6) months prior to the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 5.1.1(a)(ii); (iv) Borrower shall cause the affected Property and the use thereof after the Restoration to be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements and such Property, after Restoration, shall be of the same character as prior to such damage or destruction; (v) the Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements and the Renovation Standards; (vi) 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 reasonably acceptable to Lender and (vii) the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender are sufficient in Lender’s discretion to cover the cost of the Restoration.
(ii)    The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender in the Casualty and Condemnation Account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4(d), shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Properties which have 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 the prior approval of Lender and an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to the approval of Lender and the Casualty Consultant. All out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in

96


connection with recovering, holding and advancing the Net Proceeds for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees and disbursements, shall be paid by Borrower.
(iv)    In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, less the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean, as to each contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 5.4(d), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which (x) the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that such contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of such contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, (y) the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and (z) Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the Lien of the Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
(v)    Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.
(vi)    If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender (for deposit into the Casualty and Condemnation Account) before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be deposited by Lender into the Casualty and Condemnation Account and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions


97


applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 5.4(d) shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.
(vii)    The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited into the Casualty and Condemnation Account after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4(d), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing.
(e)    All reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with any Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, shall be paid by Borrower.
(f)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, including the provisions of Section 5.3 or Section 5.4, if the Loan is included in a REMIC Trust and, immediately following a release of any portion of the Lien of a Mortgage following a Casualty or Condemnation of a Property (but taking into account any proposed Restoration of the remaining portion of such Property), the ratio of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to the value of the remaining Properties is greater than 125% (such value to be determined, in Lender’s sole discretion, by any commercially reasonable method permitted to a REMIC Trust; and which shall exclude the value of personal property (other than fixtures) or going concern value, if any), the Outstanding Principal Balance must be paid down (by application of the Net Proceeds or Award, as applicable, or if such amounts are not sufficient, by Borrower) by a “qualified amount” as that term is defined in the IRS Revenue Procedure 2010-30, as the same may be amended, replaced, supplemented or modified from time to time, unless Lender receives an opinion of counsel that if such amount is not paid, the applicable Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a REMIC Trust as a result of the related release of such portion of the Lien of such Mortgage. If and to the extent the preceding sentence applies, only such amount of the net Award or net Insurance Proceeds (as applicable), if any, in excess of the amount required to pay down the principal balance of the Loan may be released for purposes of Restoration or released to Borrower as otherwise expressly provided in Section 5.3 or Section 5.4.
(g)    In the event of foreclosure of a Mortgage, or other transfer of title to a Property or Properties in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies that are not blanket Policies then in force concerning such Property or Properties 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.

ARTICLE 6
CASH MANAGEMENT AND RESERVE FUNDS
Section 6.1    Cash Management Arrangements.
6.1.1    Rent Deposit Account and Cash Management Account.

98


(a)    Borrower shall establish and maintain one or more trust accounts for the purpose of collecting Rents (each, a “Rent Deposit Account”) at a local bank selected by Borrower and reasonably approved by Lender which shall be an Eligible Institution (the “Rent Deposit Bank”). Borrower shall require each current and future Tenant pursuant to an instruction letter in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto (a “Tenant Direction Letter”) to send all payments of Rent (whether by cash, check or electronic means) directly to the Rent Deposit Bank, payable to Borrower, for deposit into the Rent Deposit Account. On or prior to the Closing Date, Borrower shall enter into the Lockbox Agreement with the Rent Deposit Bank, pursuant to which the Rent Deposit Bank will be instructed by Borrower to deposit all Rents received with respect to the Properties directly into the Rent Deposit Account. Without the consent of Lender, neither Borrower nor Manager shall terminate, amend, revoke or modify any Tenant Direction Letter in any manner whatsoever, or direct or cause any Tenant to pay any amount in any manner other than as provided in the related Tenant Direction Letter. Without the consent of Lender, neither Borrower nor Manager shall terminate, amend, revoke or modify the Lockbox Agreement in any manner whatsoever, or direct or cause the Rent Deposit Bank to deposit Rents in any bank account other than the Rent Deposit Account. The Rent Deposit Accounts shall be subject to a Property Account Control Agreement and Borrower and Manager shall have access to and may make withdrawals from any Rent Deposit Account for the sole purpose of making refunds of partial payments of Rents to preserve rights of eviction (as provided below) until the occurrence of an Event of Default, after which Lender may exercise sole control and dominion over each Rent Deposit Account and neither Borrower nor Manager shall have the right of withdrawal from or access to the Rent Deposit Accounts; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, no Property Account Control Agreement shall be required with respect to Security Deposit Accounts. If Borrower or Manager shall receive any Rents, then Borrower shall and shall cause such Rents to be deposited into a Rent Deposit Account or the Cash Management Account within three (3) Business Days after receipt thereof by Borrower or Manager, which deposit shall be deemed satisfied if Borrower or Manager deliver such Rents to the lockbox maintained pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement. Borrower shall (or instruct Manager to) cause all funds on deposit in a Rent Deposit Account to be deposited into the Cash Management Account every third (3rd) Business Day (or more frequently in Borrower’s discretion); provided, that so long as no Event of Default exists, Borrower may cause Rent Deposit Bank to retain a reasonable amount of funds in the Rent Deposit Accounts (the “Rent Deposit Account Retained Amount”) with respect to anticipated overdrafts, charge-backs and refunds of partial payments of Rents to preserve rights of eviction, provided in no event shall the Rent Deposit Account Retained Amount exceed 2.5% of the total Rents deposited into the Rent Deposit Accounts during the immediately prior calendar month. Borrower shall cause any Rents which are paid to Borrower or Manager via wire or other electronic means to be deposited directly into a Rent Deposit Account or the Cash Management Account. In the event of any Transfer of any Property, Borrower shall deposit directly (or shall cause to be deposited directly, whether by the closing title company or escrow agent or otherwise) into the Cash Management Account the Net Transfer Proceeds for allocation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, Borrower shall deposit or cause to be deposited any other Collections received by or on behalf of Borrower directly into the Cash Management Account within three (3) Business Days following receipt thereof. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, any Rents and other Collections received by Borrower or Manager shall be deemed to be collateral for the Obligations and shall be held in trust for the benefit, and as the property, of Lender, and such amounts shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of Borrower or Manager. If any Rent deposited into the Rent Deposit Accounts constitutes Advance Rent,

99


Borrower shall deliver written notice (the “Advance Rent Notice”) to Lender within three (3) Business Days of such deposit showing the Monthly Payment Dates to which Advance Rents received by Borrower are applicable and should be disbursed from the Cash Management Account.
(b)    Borrower shall establish and maintain a segregated Eligible Account (the “Cash Management Account”) to be held by the Cash Management Account Bank in trust and for the benefit of Lender, which Cash Management Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Lender or the Servicer on behalf of Lender. Borrower hereby grants to Lender a first priority security interest in the Cash Management Account and all deposits at any time contained therein and the proceeds thereof and will take all actions necessary to maintain in favor of Lender a perfected first priority security interest in the Cash Management Account, including, without limitation, filing UCC‑1 financing statements and continuations thereof. Borrower will not in any way alter or modify the Cash Management Account. Lender and Servicer on behalf of Lender shall have the sole right to make withdrawals from the Cash Management Account and all costs and expenses for establishing and maintaining the Cash Management Account shall be paid by Borrower. Lender may also establish subaccounts of the Cash Management Account which shall at all times be Eligible Accounts (and may be ledger or book entry accounts and not actual accounts) (such subaccounts are referred to herein as “Accounts”). The Cash Management Account and all other Accounts shall be subject to the Blocked Account Control Agreement and shall be under the sole control and dominion of Lender. Neither Borrower nor Manager shall have the right of withdrawal with respect to the Cash Management Account or any Accounts except with the prior written consent of Lender, and neither Borrower, Manager, nor any Person claiming on or behalf of or through Borrower or Manager shall have any right or authority to give instructions with respect to the Cash Management Account or the Accounts. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Cash Management Account Bank shall comply with (i) the instructions originated by Lender with respect to the disposition of funds in the Cash Management Account and the Accounts without the further consent of Borrower or Manager or any other Person and (ii) all “entitlement orders” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) and instructions originated by Lender directing the transfer or redemption of any financial asset relating to the Cash Management Account or any Account without further consent by Borrower or any other Person. The Cash Management Account and each Account is and shall be treated either as a “securities account”, as such term is defined in Section 8-501(a) of the UCC, or a “deposit account”, as defined in Section 9-102(a)(29) of the UCC.
(c)    During the Term, Borrower shall not deposit, and shall cause not to be deposited, any Rents or other Collections into any account other than a Rent Deposit Account or the Cash Management Account.

Furthermore, during any period while such an election is in effect, Borrower shall not be entitled to receive any release of Tax Funds from the Tax Account. Borrower may revoke the election contemplated by this Section 6.1.3 by written notice to Lender; provided, that (i) such revocation shall not take effect until the first Monthly Payment Date that is more than ten (10) Business Days after the date Lender receives such notice and (ii) on such Monthly Payment Date Borrower shall deposit into the Tax Account an amount reasonably determined by Lender that, when combined with prospective deposits into the Tax Account contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 6.1.1 will be sufficient funds to pay all Property Taxes with respect to the Properties prior to their respective due dates.

Any Extraordinary Operating Expense approved by Lender is referred to herein as an “Approved Extraordinary Operating Expense”. Any Funds distributed to Borrower for the payment of Approved Extraordinary Operating Expenses pursuant to Section 6.8.1 shall be used by Borrower only to pay for such Approved Extraordinary Operating Expenses or reimburse Borrower for such Approved Extraordinary Operating Expenses, as applicable.
Section 6.9    Security Interest in Reserve Funds. As security for payment of the Debt and the performance by Borrower of all other terms, conditions and provisions of the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby pledges and assigns to Lender, and grants to Lender a security interest in, all Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all (collectively, the “Account Collateral”) (i) Collections, (ii) any and all Permitted Investments, (iii) in and to all payments to, cash, checks, drafts, letters of credit, certificates and instruments from time to time held in the Property Accounts, the Cash Management Account and/or Accounts (collectively, the “Cash Management Accounts”), (iv) all interest, dividends, cash, instruments, investment property and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise payable in respect of, or in exchange for, any or all of the foregoing, and (iv) to the extent not covered by clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, all “proceeds” (as defined under the UCC) of any or all of the foregoing. Borrower hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in, and agrees to hold in trust for the benefit of Lender, all Rents and other Collections in its possession prior to the (x) payment of such Collections to Lender or (y) deposit of such Collections into a Rent Deposit Account or Cash Management Account, as applicable. Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any Cash Management Account, or permit any Lien to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. This Agreement is, among other things, intended by the parties to be a security agreement for purposes of the UCC. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any sums in any Cash Management Account in any order and in any manner as Lender shall elect in Lender’s discretion without seeking the appointment of a receiver and without adversely affecting the rights of Lender to foreclose the Lien of any Mortgage Documents, Borrower Security Agreement or exercise its other rights under any other Loan Documents. Provided no Event of Default exists, all interest which accrues on the funds in the Cash Management Account or any Account (other than the Tax Account and the Insurance Account) shall accrue for the benefit of Borrower and shall be taxable to Borrower and shall be added to and disbursed in the same manner and under the same conditions as the principal sum on which said interest accrued. Upon repayment in full of the Debt, all remaining funds in the Cash Management Account and the Accounts, if any, shall be promptly disbursed to Borrower.

Section 8.2    Remedies.
8.2.1    Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (vii), (viii) or (ix) of Section 8.1) and at any time thereafter, Lender may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, take such action, without notice or demand (and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand), that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against any Relevant Party and in and to the Properties, including declaring the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against the Relevant Parties, including all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described in clauses (vii), (viii) or (ix) of Section 8.1, the Obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable in full, without notice or demand, and the Loan Parties hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.
8.2.2    Remedies Cumulative.
(a)    During the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against each Relevant Party under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, a Relevant Party or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Obligations shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to the Collateral. 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 a Relevant Party pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or

113


otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents or by equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender shall not be subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Properties and the other Collateral and each Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Obligations or the Obligations have been paid in full including, without limitation, any liquidation fees, workout fees, special servicing fees and interest payable on advances made by the Servicer with respect to delinquent debt service payments or expenses of curing Borrower’s or any Loan Party’s defaults under the Loan Documents or other similar fees payable to Servicer or any special servicer in connection therewith. 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 a Relevant Party shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by such Relevant Party or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.
(b)    With respect to Borrower, the other Loan Parties and the Collateral, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any Property or other portion of the Collateral for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority to any other portion of the Collateral, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of all of the Collateral or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose any Mortgage or the Lien of any of the other Collateral Documents in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Collateral Documents then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, including the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose one or more of the Mortgages or other Collateral Documents to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance, Lender may foreclose one or more of the Mortgages or other Collateral Documents to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Mortgages and the other Collateral Documents as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Collateral shall remain subject to the Mortgages and the other Collateral Documents to secure payment of the sums secured by the Collateral Documents and not previously recovered.
8.2.3    Severance.
(a)    During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, Collateral Documents and other security documents in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. The Loan Parties 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. The Loan Parties hereby absolutely and irrevocably

114


appoint Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to a Loan Party by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power.
(b)    During the continuance of an Event of Default, any amounts recovered from the Collateral may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents, in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.
(c)    As used in this Section 8.2, a “foreclosure” shall include, without limitation, any sale by power of sale.
8.2.4    Lender’s Right to Perform. If any Loan Party fails to perform any covenant or obligation contained herein and such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) Business Days after Borrower’s receipt of written notice thereof from Lender, without in any way limiting Lender’s right to exercise any of its rights, powers or remedies as provided hereunder, or under any of the other Loan Documents, Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, perform, or cause the performance of, such covenant or obligation, and all costs, expenses, liabilities, penalties and fines of Lender incurred or paid in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower to Lender upon demand and if not paid shall be added to the Obligations (and to the extent permitted under applicable laws, secured by the Mortgages and the other Collateral Documents) and shall bear interest thereafter at the Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation to send notice to Borrower of any such failure.
ARTICLE 9

(a)    Lender shall have the right (i) to sell or otherwise transfer the Loan or any portion thereof as a whole loan, (ii) to sell participation interests in the Loan, or (iii) to securitize the Loan or any portion thereof in a single asset securitization or a pooled loan securitization. (The transactions referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are each hereinafter referred to as a “Secondary Market Transaction” and the transactions referred to in clause (iii) shall hereinafter be referred to as a “Securitization”. Any certificates, notes or other securities issued in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction are hereinafter referred to as “Securities”). At Lender’s election, each note and/or component comprising the Loan may be subject to one or more Secondary Market Transactions.
(b)    If requested by Lender, the Loan Parties shall use reasonable efforts to provide information in the possession or control of Borrower or its Affiliates, attorneys, accountants or other agents or which may be reasonably required by Lender in order to satisfy the market standards to which Lender customarily adheres or which may be required in the marketplace, by prospective investors, the Rating Agencies, applicable Legal Requirements

115


and/or otherwise in the marketplace in connection with any Secondary Market Transactions, including to:
(i)    (A) provide updated financial and other information with respect to the Properties, the business operated at the Properties, Borrower, Sponsor and the Manager, including, without limitation, the information set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto, (B) provide updated budgets relating to the Properties, and (C) provide updated appraisals, market studies, environmental reviews and reports (Phase I’s and, if appropriate, Phase II’s), property condition reports and other due diligence investigations of the Properties (the “Updated Information”) which were obtained in connection with the origination of the Loan;
(ii)    provide reliance to each Person acquiring any interest in the Loan in connection with any Secondary Market Transaction (including, without limitation, any “B Note” purchasers) on (A) each Insolvency Opinion, and (B) each opinion of Borrower’s and Guarantor’s New York and Delaware counsel, or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies;
(iii)    (A) confirm that as of the closing date of any Secondary Market Transaction, the representations and warranties as set forth in the Loan Documents are true, complete and correct in all material respects as of the closing date of the Secondary Market Transaction (except to the extent that any such representations and warranties are made as of a specific date and the facts and circumstances upon which such representation and warranty is based are specific solely to a certain date in which case confirmation as to truth, completeness and correctness shall be provided as of such specific date or to the extent such representations are no longer true and correct as a result of subsequent events in which case Borrower shall provide an updated representation or warranty) and (B) make such additional representations and warranties as the Rating Agencies may customarily require; and
(iv)    execute amendments to the Loan Documents and the Loan Parties’ organizational documents requested by Lender; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to modify or amend any Loan Document if such modification or amendment would (A) cause the initial weighted average of the interest rates for all Components in the aggregate immediately after the effective date of such modification to exceed the weighted average interest rate of the original Components in the aggregate immediately prior to such modification or alter the basis for any interest rate or convert such interest rate to a fixed rate, (B) cause the outstanding principal balance of all Components in the aggregate immediately after the effective date of such modification to exceed the outstanding principal balance of all Components in the aggregate immediately prior to such modification, (C) require Borrower to make or remake any representations or warranties, (D) require principal amortization of the Loan (other than repayment in full on the Maturity Date), (E) change any Stated Maturity Date or (F) otherwise increase the obligations or reduce the rights of Borrower or Guarantor under the Loan Documents.
(c)    If, at the time a Disclosure Document is being prepared for a Securitization, Lender reasonably determines that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more Affiliates of Borrower (including any guarantor or other Person that is directly or indirectly committed by contract or otherwise to make payments on all or a part of the Loan) collectively,

116


or the Properties alone or the Properties and Related Properties collectively, will be a Significant Obligor, Borrower shall furnish to Lender upon request the following financial information:
(i)    if Lender reasonably determines that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans, as of the cut-off date for such Securitization, may equal or exceed ten percent (10%) (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included in the Securitization, net operating income for the Properties and the Related Properties for the most recent Fiscal Year and interim period as required under Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB (or, if the Loan is not treated as a non-recourse loan under Instruction 3 for Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB, selected financial data meeting the requirements and covering the time periods specified in Item 301 of Regulation S-K and Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB), or
(ii)    if Lender reasonably determines that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans, as of the cut-off date for such Securitization, may equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included in the Securitization, the financial statements required under Item 1112(b)(2) of Regulation AB (which includes, but may not be limited to, a balance sheet with respect to the entity that Lender determines to be a Significant Obligor for the two most recent Fiscal Years and applicable interim periods, meeting the requirements of Rule 3-01 of Regulation S-X, and statements of income and statements of cash flows with respect to the Properties for the three most recent Fiscal Years and applicable interim periods, meeting the requirements of Rule 3-02 of Regulation S-X (or if Lender determines that the Properties is the Significant Obligor and the Properties (other than properties that are hotels, nursing homes, or other properties that would be deemed to constitute a business and not real estate under Regulation S-X or other legal requirements) was acquired from an unaffiliated third party and the other conditions set forth in Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X have been met, the financial statements required by Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X)).
(d)    Further, if requested by Lender, Borrower shall, promptly upon Lender’s request, furnish to Lender financial data or financial statements meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, for any Tenant of the Properties if, in connection with a Securitization, Lender reasonably determines there to be, as of the cutoff date for such Securitization, a concentration with respect to such Tenant or group of Affiliated Tenants within all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included in the Securitization such that such Tenant or group of Affiliated Tenants would constitute a Significant Obligor. Borrower shall furnish to Lender, in connection with the preparation of the Disclosure Documents and on an ongoing basis, financial data and/or financial statements with respect to such Tenants meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, but only for so long as such entity or entities are a Significant Obligor and either (x) filings pursuant to the Exchange Act in connection with or relating to the Securitization (an “Exchange Act Filing”) are required to be made under applicable Legal Requirements or (y) comparable information is required to otherwise be “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements.
(e)    If Lender determines that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more Affiliates of Borrower collectively, or the Properties alone or the Properties and Related


117


Properties collectively, are a Significant Obligor, then Borrower shall furnish to Lender, on an ongoing basis, selected financial data or financial statements meeting the requirements of Item 1112(b)(1) or (2) of Regulation AB, as specified by Lender, but only for so long as such entity or entities are a Significant Obligor and either (x) Exchange Act Filings are required to be made under applicable Legal Requirements or (y) comparable information is required to otherwise be “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements.
(f)    If reasonably requested by Lender in connection with a Securitization, Borrower shall provide Lender, within a reasonable period of time following Lender’s request therefor, with any other or additional financial statements, or financial, statistical or operating information, as Lender shall reasonably determine to be required pursuant to Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X, as applicable, Regulation AB, or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or other Legal Requirements relating to a Securitization.
Section 9.2    Securitization Indemnification.
(a)    Borrower understands that information provided to Lender by Borrower, Guarantor and their respective agents, counsel and representatives may be included in preliminary and final disclosure documents in connection with any Secondary Market Transaction, including a Securitization, including an offering circular, a prospectus, prospectus supplement, private placement memorandum or other offering document (each, a “Disclosure Document”) and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and may be made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, investment banking firms, NRSROs, accounting firms, law firms and other third-party advisory and service providers relating to any Secondary Market Transaction, including a Securitization. Borrower also understands that the findings and conclusions of any third-party due diligence report obtained by Lender, the Issuer or the Securitization placement agent or underwriter may be made publicly available if required, and in the manner prescribed, by Section 15E(s)(4)(A) of the Exchange Act and any rules promulgated thereunder.
(b)    Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Lender (and for purposes of this Section 9.2, Lender shall include the initial lender, its successors and assigns, and their respective officers and directors) and each Person who controls Lender within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Lender Group”), the issuer of the Securities (the “Issuer” and for purposes of this Section 9.2, Issuer shall include its officers, director and each Person who controls the Issuer within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and any placement agent or underwriter with respect to the Securitization, each of their respective officers and directors and each Person who controls the placement agent or underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Group”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which Lender, Lender Group, the Issuer or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Covered Disclosure Information (defined below), (B) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Covered Disclosure Information a material fact required to be stated in such information or necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (C) a breach of the

118


representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in Section 3.1.24 of this Agreement (Full and Accurate Disclosure). For purposes of the foregoing, the “Covered Disclosure Information” shall mean the information provided by or on behalf of Borrower contained in the Disclosure Documents authorized for use by Borrower. Borrower also agrees to reimburse Lender, Lender Group, the Issuer and/or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, Lender Group, the Issuer and/or the Underwriter Group in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities. This indemnification provision will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have.
(c)    In connection with any Exchange Act Filing or other reports containing comparable information that is required to be made “available” to holders of the Securities under Regulation AB or applicable Legal Requirements, Borrower agrees to (i) indemnify Lender, Lender Group, the Issuer and the Underwriter Group for Liabilities to which Lender, Lender Group, the Issuer and/or the Underwriter Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of, or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact in the Covered Disclosure Information, or the omission or alleged omission to state in the Covered Disclosure Information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Covered Disclosure Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (ii) reimburse Lender, Lender Group, the Issuer and/or the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, Lender Group, the Issuer and/or the Underwriter Group in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities.
(d)    Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9.2 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9.2, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party under Section 9.2(b) or (c) except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 9.2(d), such indemnifying party shall pay for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party at the cost of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party. Without the prior

119


written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), no indemnifying party shall settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless the indemnifying party shall have given Lender reasonable prior written notice thereof and shall have obtained an unconditional release of each indemnified party hereunder from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceedings, and such settlement requires no statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of the indemnified party.
(e)    In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in Section 9.2(b) or (c) is for any reason held to be unenforceable as to an indemnified party in respect of any Liabilities (or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under Section 9.2(b) or (c), the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Liabilities (or action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) the Issuer’s and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Lender and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.
(f)    The liabilities and obligations of both Borrower and Lender under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.
Section 9.3    Severance.
9.3.1    Severance Documentation. Lender, without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights hereunder, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right, at any time (whether prior to or after any sale, participation or other Secondary Market Transaction with respect to all or any portion of the Loan), to require Borrower (at Lender’s expense) to execute and deliver “component” notes (including certificating existing uncertificated “component” notes) and/or modify the Loan or the existing “component note” structure in order to create one or more senior and subordinate notes (i.e., an A/B or A/B/C structure) and/or one or more additional components of the Note or Notes), or make any other change to the Loan the Note or Components including but not limited to: reducing the number of Components of the Note or Notes, revising the interest rate for each Component, reallocating the principal balances of the Notes and/or the Components, increasing or decreasing the monthly debt service payments for each Component or eliminating the Component structure and/or the multiple note structure of the Loan (including the elimination of the related allocations of principal and interest payments); provided that (A) the outstanding principal balance of all Components in the aggregate immediately after the effective date of such modification equals the outstanding principal balance immediately prior to such modification, (B) the initial weighted average of the interest rate for all Components in the aggregate immediately after the effective date of such

120


modification equals the weighted average interest rate of the original Components immediately prior to such modification and such interest rates remain determined by reference to LIBOR plus a Component Spread, (C) no principal amortization of the Loan (or any Components thereof) shall be required (other than repayment in full on the Maturity Date), (D) there shall be no change to any Stated Maturity Date and (E) Borrower and Guarantor shall not be required to amend any Loan Documents that would otherwise increase the obligations or reduce the rights of Borrower or Guarantor under the Loan Documents. At Lender’s election, each note comprising the Loan may be subject to one or more Secondary Market Transactions. Lender shall have the right to modify the Note and/or Notes and any Components in accordance with this Section 9.3 and, provided that such modification shall comply with the terms of this Section 9.3, it shall become immediately effective.
9.3.2    Cooperation; Execution; Delivery. Borrower shall reasonably cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in connection with this Section 9.3. If requested by Lender, Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver such documents as shall be required by Lender and any Rating Agency in connection with any modification pursuant to this Section 9.3, all in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and satisfactory to any applicable Rating Agency. It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan Documents if Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Section 9.3 after expiration of ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof.
ARTICLE 10

MISCELLANEOUS
Section 10.1    Survival; Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the execution and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as all or any of the Obligations are outstanding and unpaid unless a longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the legal representatives, successors and assigns of such party. All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement, by or on behalf of Borrower and the other Loan Parties, shall inure to the benefit of the legal representatives, successors and assigns of Lender.

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

121


(b)    Whenever, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, a Rating Agency Confirmation is required from each applicable Rating Agency, in the event that any applicable Rating Agency “declines review”, “waives review” or otherwise indicates to Lender’s or Servicer’s satisfaction that no Rating Agency Confirmation will or needs to be issued with respect to the matter in question (each, a “Review Waiver”), then the requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation from such Rating Agency shall not apply with respect to such matter; provided, however, if a Review Waiver occurs with respect to a Rating Agency and Lender does not have a separate and independent approval right with respect to the matter in question, then such matter shall require the written reasonable approval of Lender.

In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where, by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages and Borrower’s sole remedy shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. Any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.
Section 10.12    Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.
Section 10.13    No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries.
(a)    Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in any Property other than that of beneficiary or lender.
(b)    The Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in any Loan Document shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained therein.
Section 10.14    Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or any of 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 (with respect to the Loan and the Securitization of the Loan only), the Affiliate of Lender that acts as the issuer with respect to a Securitization or any of their other Affiliates (in each case, with respect to the Loan and the Securitization of the Loan only) (x) shall be prohibited prior to the final Securitization of the Loan and (y) after the final Securitization of the Loan, shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender. Lender shall have the right to publicly describe the Loan in general terms advertising and public communications of all kinds, including press releases, direct mail, newspapers, magazines, journals, e-mail, or internet advertising or communications.

126


Section 10.15    Waiver of Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Borrower’s members or partners, as applicable, and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Collateral, and shall not assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Collateral for the collection of the Obligations without any prior or different resort for collection, or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Obligations out of the net proceeds of the Collateral in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.
Section 10.16    Certain Waivers. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents or otherwise to offset any obligations to make the payments required by the Loan Documents. No failure by Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall be a valid defense to, or result in any offset against, any payments which Borrower is obligated to make under any of the Loan Documents. Without limiting any of the other provisions contained herein, Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, any rights it may have to claim or recover against Lender in any legal action or proceeding any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages. 
Section 10.17    Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan, without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.
Section 10.18    Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower hereby represents that neither Borrower or any other Loan Party has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The provisions of this Section 10.18 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.
    

127


Section 10.19    Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto and their respective affiliates in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, including any confidentiality agreements or any similar agreements between or among any such parties, whether oral or written, are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section 10.20    Servicer. At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer or special servicer (the “Servicer”) selected by Lender (prior to any Default or Event of Default, in consultation with Borrower) and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Servicer pursuant to the trust and servicing agreement or pooling and servicing agreement (the “Servicing Agreement”) governing the Securitization. Borrower shall not be responsible for any set-up fees or any other initial costs relating to or arising under the Servicing Agreement. Borrower shall not be responsible for payment of the monthly master servicing fee due to the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall pay all Trust Fund Expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.20 shall not be deemed to limit Borrower’s obligations under Section 4.1.20.
Section 10.21    Joint and Several Liability. If more than one Person has executed this Agreement as “Borrower,” the representations, covenants, warranties and obligations of all such Persons hereunder shall be joint and several.
Section 10.22    Creation of Security Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage Documents or any of the other Loan Documents, Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage Documents and any other Loan Document (including the advances owing to it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
Section 10.23    Assignments and Participations. In addition to the right to securitize the Loan under Section 9.1, to sever the interests in the Loan into “component” notes under Section 9.3 and any other rights of Lender hereunder, the Loan, the Note, the Loan Documents and/or Lender’s rights, title, obligations and interests therein may be sold, assigned, participated or otherwise transferred by Lender and any of its successors and assigns to any Person at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, in whole or in part, whether by operation of law (pursuant to a merger or other successor in interest) or otherwise without notice to or consent from Borrower or any other Person. Upon such assignment, all references to Lender in this Agreement and in any Loan Document shall be deemed to refer to such assignee or successor in interest and such assignee or successor in interest shall thereafter stand in the place of Lender in all respects (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.10.6). Each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.9 and 2.10 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.10.6, it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.10.6 shall be delivered to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment; provided that (i) such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment pursuant to Sections 2.9 or Section 2.10 than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change

128


in law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation and (ii) no holder of Securities shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.9 and 2.10.
Section 10.24    Register and Participant Register. Each Lender or its designee, which may include any Servicer, as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, or the Borrower, (such Lender or its designee, the “Registrar”) shall maintain a record that identifies such Lender (including successors and assignees), including the name and address of such Lender, and such Lender’s rights to principal and stated interest (the “Register”), and shall record all transfers of an interest in such Lender’s Loan, in a Register. Transfers of interests in the Loan (including assignments) shall be subject to the applicable conditions set forth in the Loan Documents with respect thereto and the Registrar will update such Register to reflect the transfer. The Register maintained by such Lender (or its designee) shall be available for inspection by Borrower, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Each assignment shall be recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph; provided that failure to properly record a transfer shall not affect the validity of such transfer, and any such error shall be corrected in the applicable Register. Furthermore, each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts and stated interest of each participant’s interest in the Loan or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations. The entries in the Register and Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower, the Lender and any of its successors and assigns, and the Registrar shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the participating Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, however, shall not affect Borrower’s obligations in respect of the Loan.
Section 10.25    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
Section 10.26    Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Lender provided by this Agreement and by law, Lender shall have the right in its sole discretion, without prior notice to Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Lender or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Borrower; provided however, Lender may only exercise such right during the continuance of an Event of Default. Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower after any such set-off and application made


129


by Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
Section 10.27    Cross-Default; Cross-Collateralization; Waiver of Marshalling of Assets.
(a)    Borrower acknowledge that Lender has made the Loan to Borrower upon, among other things, the security of its collective interest in the Properties and in reliance upon the aggregate of the Properties taken together being of greater value as collateral security than the sum of each Property taken separately. Borrower agrees that the Mortgages are and will be cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with each other so that (i) an Event of Default under any of the Mortgages shall constitute an Event of Default under each of the other Mortgages which secure the Note; (ii) an Event of Default under the Note or this Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under each Mortgage; (iii) each Mortgage shall constitute security for the Note as if a single blanket lien were placed on all of the Properties as security for the Note; and (iv) such cross-collateralization shall in no event be deemed to constitute a fraudulent conveyance.
(b)    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 or members and of the Properties, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of all or any of the Mortgages, 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 Properties 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 Properties in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Mortgages, any equitable right otherwise available to Borrower which would require the separate sale of the Properties or require Lender to exhaust its remedies against any Property or any combination of the Properties before proceeding against any other Property or combination of Properties; and further in the event of such foreclosure Borrower does hereby expressly consents to and authorizes, at the option of Lender, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of any combination of the Properties
Section 10.28    Certificated Interests.
(a)    If any ownership interest in an Equity Interest of Borrower or any Borrower TRS is represented by a certificate (each, an “Equity Certificate”) that has been pledged and delivered to Lender and such Equity Certificate is lost, stolen or destroyed, then, upon the written request of Lender to the applicable Loan Party, such Loan Party shall issue to Lender a new Equity Certificate in place of the Equity Certificate that was lost, stolen or destroyed, provided such Lender: (i) makes proof by affidavit, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Loan Party, that such previously issued Equity Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed and indemnifies Borrower for any loss relating thereto and (ii) requests the issuance of a new Equity Certificate before the Loan party has notice that such previously issued Equity Certificate has been acquired by a purchaser for value in good faith and without notice of an adverse claim.


130


(b)    Upon repayment in full of the Loan, in the event Lender fails to return to a Loan Party an Equity Certificate previously delivered by such Loan Party to Lender in connection with the Loan, Lender shall deliver to the applicable Loan Party, within ten (10) days of such Loan Party’s demand, an affidavit in form and substance satisfactory to the applicable Loan Party, that such previously issued Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, and that such Equity Certificate has not been transferred to any third party and indemnifies Borrower for any loss relating thereto.
