7.          Unimpaired Liability. The liability of Indemnitors under this Agreement shall in no way be limited or impaired by, and each Indemnitor hereby consents to and agrees to be bound by, any amendment or modification of the provisions of, as applicable, the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or any other Loan Document to or with Indemnitee by Borrower or any Person who succeeds Borrower or any Person as owner of the Collateral or any Individual Property (subject to the express provisions of Section 9 hereof).

8.          Enforcement. The Indemnified Parties may enforce the obligations of Indemnitors without first resorting to or exhausting any security or collateral or without first having recourse to the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any of the Collateral, through foreclosure sale or otherwise, provided, however, that nothing herein shall inhibit or prevent Indemnitee from suing on the Note, foreclosing or exercising any power of sale under the Pledge Agreement or exercising any other rights and remedies thereunder, subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement. This Agreement is not collateral or security for the Obligations of Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement, unless Indemnitee expressly elects in writing to make this Agreement additional collateral or security for such Obligations of Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement, which Indemnitee is entitled to do in its sole and absolute discretion. It is not necessary for an Event of Default to have occurred pursuant to and as defined in the Pledge Agreement or the Loan Agreement for Indemnified Parties to exercise their rights pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of the Loan Agreement to the contrary, the obligations of each Indemnitor pursuant to this Agreement are exceptions to any non-recourse or exculpation provision of the Loan Agreement; and each Indemnitor expressly acknowledges and agrees that it is fully and personally liable for such obligations, and such liability is not limited to the original or amortized principal balance of the Loan or the value of the Collateral.

 

9.          Limitations on Liability of Non-Borrower Indemnitors.

 

(a)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the other Loan Documents, in the event of:

 

(i)          any foreclosure upon a Mezzanine Loan Default by a Mezzanine Lender that is not a Non-Borrower Indemnitor Affiliate of the direct ownership interests in the applicable Mortgage Borrower, the SPC Party or Borrower or general partner of any Mortgage Borrower or Mezzanine Borrower pledged as collateral for a Mezzanine Loan pursuant to the Mezzanine Loan Documents, any transfer in lieu of foreclosure of the equity pledged as collateral for any Mezzanine Loan to, on behalf of or for the account of any Mezzanine Lender that is not a Non-Borrower Indemnitor Affiliate (any such foreclosure or transfer-in-lieu thereof, a “Mezzanine Divestment”), with the result that neither of the Non-Borrower Indemnitors nor any other Non-Borrower Indemnitor Affiliate (excluding any Loan Party who as a result of such Mezzanine Divestment is no longer Controlled by either of the Non-Borrower Indemnitors or any other Non-Borrower Indemnitor Affiliate) shall have Control of, any one or more of the Mortgage Borrowers (each such Mortgage Borrower, a “Divested Borrower”), or

 

(ii)         (A) any foreclosure (whether judicially or non-judicially by private sale or trustee’s sale) of any Mortgage, (B) any transfer in lieu of foreclosure to, on behalf of or for the account of Mortgage Lender or a receiver, trustee, liquidator, conservator or other third-party appointed by, on behalf of or for the account of Mortgage Lender taking control of any Individual Property (any such foreclosure, foreclosure sale, transfer in lieu of foreclosure or appointment, a “Mortgage Divestment”), with the result, in any such case, that neither of the Non-Borrower Indemnitors nor any other Non-Borrower Indemnitor Affiliate shall have the power to direct the management of, any one or more of the Properties thereby foreclosed, transferred or controlled (each such Property, a “Divested Property),

(b)          In the event that a Permitted Direct Assumption or Permitted Indirect Assumption, shall occur in accordance with Section 7.1 of the Loan Agreement, and Lender receives in connection therewith a replacement guaranty and replacement environmental indemnity (collectively, the “Assumption Replacement Guaranty”) in satisfaction of the condition in Section 7.1(a)(xiii) or Section 7.1(b)(xi) of the Loan Agreement, as applicable, Lender shall execute and deliver a release of Non-Borrower Indemnitors for any Losses arising from any circumstance, condition, action or event first occurring after the effective date of such Assumption Replacement Guaranty (the “Assumption Release Date”) to the extent the same is not caused by either of the Non-Borrower Indemnitors or any Non-Borrower Indemnitor Affiliate (it being understood that circumstances, conditions, actions or events caused by or on behalf of any Transferee Borrower or Indirect Transferee shall be deemed to not have been caused by any Non-Borrower Indemnitor or any Non-Borrower Indemnitor Affiliate); provided, however, that Non-Borrower Indemnitors shall remain liable hereunder for any Losses arising from any action or event occurring prior to the Assumption Release Date.

 

(c)          In the event that a Mezzanine Loan Default shall exist with respect to a Mezzanine Loan and the related Mezzanine Lender is not a Non-Borrower Indemnitor Affiliate and such related Mezzanine Lender, pursuant to the exercise of remedies under the Mezzanine Loan Documents, (i) exercises direct voting Control, by power of attorney or other exercise of voting power with respect to the ownership interests of the applicable Mortgage Borrower, SPC Party, Borrower or general partner of any Mortgage Borrower, or Mezzanine Borrower pledged to such Mezzanine Lender as collateral for its Mezzanine Loan under the related Mezzanine Loan Documents, of such ownership interests in the applicable Borrowers, SPC Party or Mezzanine Borrower so pledged as collateral for such Mezzanine Loan, or (ii) appoints a receiver, trustee, liquidator, conservator or other third-party that is not a Non-Borrower Indemnitor Affiliate to take control of the equity pledged as collateral for such Mezzanine Loan (the “Direct Control Remedies”, and such Mezzanine Lender, or such receiver, trustee, liquidator, conservator or other third-party appointed by such Mezzanine Lender, exercising such Direct Control Remedies, the “Controlling Mezzanine Lender”), Non-Borrower Indemnitors shall not have liability hereunder for the actions that such Controlling Mezzanine Lender, in the exercise of its Direct Control Remedies, causes any Mortgage Borrower, the SPC Party, Borrower or any general partner of any Mortgage Borrower or Mezzanine Borrower to take (“Mezzanine Lender Controlled Actions”) if such Mezzanine Lender Controlled Actions are taken without consent of or collusion with, either of the Non-Borrower Indemnitors or any Non-Borrower Indemnitor Affiliate.

30.         Unsecured Obligations.  Indemnitors hereby acknowledge that Lender’s appraisal of the Collateral is such that Lender is not willing to accept the consequences of the inclusion of Indemnitors’ indemnity set forth herein among the obligations secured by the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that Lender would not enter into the Loan Agreement but for the unsecured personal liability undertaken by Indemnitors herein.  Indemnitors further hereby acknowledge that even though the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of Indemnitors contained herein may be identical or substantially similar to representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of Indemnitors set forth in the Loan Agreement and/or the Pledge Agreement and secured thereby, the obligations of Indemnitors under this Agreement are not secured by the lien of the Pledge Agreement or the security interests or other collateral described in the Pledge Agreement or the other Loan Documents, it being the intent of Lender to create separate obligations of Indemnitors hereunder which can be enforced against Indemnitors without regard to the existence of the Pledge Agreement, the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the liens or security interests created therein.
