(All capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement); and
WHEREAS, Obligor has entered into a certain agreement (hereinafter, as such may be amended from time to time, singly and collectively, the “Advisory Contract”) with BRG Manager, LLC (hereinafter, the “Advisor”), with its principal offices at 712 Fifth Avenue, 9th Floor, New York, New York 10019, in connection with the management and operation of the Borrower and its properties; and
WHEREAS, one of the conditions of the providing of the Facility pursuant to the Credit Agreement is the subordination of the Advisory Contract by the Obligor to the Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) established under the Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement);
NOW THEREFORE and in consideration of the above, and of mutual covenants contained herein and benefits to be derived herefrom, the parties hereto agree as follows:
| 1. | By acceptance hereof, the Agent agrees not to exercise any rights under this Subordination except upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Obligor or the Advisor may rely conclusively upon any written notice given by the Agent to the Obligor or the Advisor of the occurrence of such an Event of Default. Upon and after the giving of such notice, and until further written notice from the Agent to the Obligor or the Advisor, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) exercise all rights granted the Agent under this Subordination. |
| 2. | The Obligor and the Advisor (by its assent hereto) represent and warrant that the Advisory Contract is in full force and effect and that there are no defaults under the Advisory Contract by any party thereto, and the Obligor represents and warrants that the Obligor has not made and will not make any other assignment thereof. |
| 3. | Any action or proceedings to enforce this Subordination may be taken by the Agent either in its name or in the name of the Obligor as the Agent may deem necessary. |
| 4. | The Advisor has assented to this Subordination and hereby acknowledges this Subordination of the Advisory Contract to the Agent and the Lenders and consents thereto. The Advisor agrees that it will furnish to the Agent copies of all written notices given to the Obligor with respect to any default of the Obligor under the Advisory Contract, simultaneously with the giving of such notice to the Obligor. |
| 5. | This Subordination does not release or affect in any way the obligations of the Obligor to the Advisor. |
| 6. | The rights of the Agent hereunder may be fully exercised by the Agent’s designee or assignee. Further, upon the assignment by the Agent of its rights hereunder, the Agent shall be automatically released from any liability of any nature whatsoever hereunder or under the Advisory Contract. |
| 7. | If an Event of Default exists, the Advisor agrees that: |
| a. | all payments to be made to the Advisor under the Advisory Contract shall cease until the Event of Default is cured and the Advisor receives written notice from the Agent that it may resume receiving said payments; provided, however, if the Advisor is required to fully meet its obligations under the Advisory Contract without payment, the Advisor may terminate the Advisory Contract upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Obligor and the Agent; |
| b. | all of the Advisor’s rights to payment (other than reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of Obligor), and all other rights, remedies, powers, privileges and discretions as set forth in the Advisory Contract shall be subject to and subordinate to prior payment and satisfaction in full of the Obligations of the Obligor to the Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents; provided, however, as long as no Event of Default exists under the Loan Documents, Advisor may be paid, when due, all fees payable to Advisor under the Advisory Contract and in the case of nonpayment, as contemplated in Section 7(a) above, Advisor may terminate the Advisory Contract; and |
| c. | Any and all amounts which are collected, enforced or received by the Advisor shall be held by the Advisor as trustee for the Agent and shall be paid over to the Agent on account of the Obligations of the Obligor to the Agent under the Loan Documents. |
