2.1.3    Note. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, as agent on behalf of the Lenders, a promissory note in the form of Exhibit G-1 and a promissory note in the form of Exhibit G-2 (each, a “Note”), which in the aggregate shall equal the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loan as of the Closing Date.

If any Note is mutilated or defaced and is surrendered to Borrower, or if there shall be delivered to Borrower evidence to its reasonable satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, then Borrower shall execute and deliver, in lieu of the mutilated, defaced, destroyed lost or stolen Note, a new Note, of like tenor (including the same date of issuance) and equal principal or notional amount and bearing interest from the date to which interest has been paid on the mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note; provided that the applicant for a replacement Note shall provide to Borrower such security or indemnity as Borrower shall reasonably require for any liability, obligation, loss or damages Borrower may incur in connection with any enforcement, collection or attempted enforcement or collection of the destroyed, lost or stolen Note. In the event that, as of the date a replacement Note is requested, the principal amount of any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, stolen or lost Note shall have become, or will within the next succeeding fifteen (15) days become, due and payable in accordance with its terms, Borrower may, at its discretion, not authenticate and deliver such a replacement Note. Borrower shall not be required to incur any material cost or expense in procuring any such indemnity or with the preparation, execution, authentication and delivery of any such replacement Note. In no event shall either the Paying Agent or the Calculation Agent have any obligation

56




to maintain a register of holders of any such promissory notes, or to register or otherwise monitor transfers thereof.

The Loan Parties shall not, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds of the Loan or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, affiliate, joint venture partner or other Person: (i) for the purpose of financing or facilitating any activity that would violate applicable anti-corruption laws and Anti-Money Laundering Laws; or (ii) to fund or facilitate any activities or business of or with any Person who, at the time of such funding or facilitation, is (a) the subject of Sanctions or (b) located, organized, or resident in any country or territory that is the subject of comprehensive territorial Sanctions; or (iii) in any other manner that will result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person (including any party to this Agreement); provided that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower, the Equity Owner, the Sponsor and its Affiliates shall be permitted to declare and pay any dividends or tax distributions to the shareholders or members of Borrower, the Equity Owner, the Limited Guarantor and its Affiliates in the ordinary course to the extent necessary for the Sponsor to continue to qualify as a REIT; provided, further that, such payment may be made by Borrower or Borrower TRS only if the following conditions are satisfied: (1) no Event of Default shall then exist or would result therefrom, (2) such dividends or distributions have been approved by all necessary action on the part of Borrower or Borrower TRS, as applicable, and in compliance with all applicable laws and (3) such dividends or distributions are paid from Unrestricted Cash.
Section 2.2    Interest Rate.
2.2.1    Interest Rate. The Loan shall accrue interest throughout the Term at the applicable Interest Rate during each Interest Period. The total interest accrued under the Loan shall be the sum of the interest accrued on the Outstanding Principal Balance. Borrower shall pay to Lenders on each Payment Date the interest accrued or to be accrued on the Loan for the related Interest Period.
2.2.2    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 applicable Interest Rate expressed as an annual rate divided by 360) or, in the case of a Federal Funds Rate Loan or other Obligations bearing interest by reference to the Federal Funds Alternative Rate, a daily rate based on a three hundred sixty-five (365) or three hundred sixty-six (366) day year (that is, the applicable Interest Rate expressed as an annual rate divided by 365 or 366), as the case may be, by (C) the applicable average daily Outstanding Principal Balance or the amount of such other Obligations, as applicable, during such period. The accrual period for calculating interest due on each Payment Date shall be the Interest Period most recently-ended immediately prior to such Payment Date.

57




2.2.3    Determination of Interest Rate; Increased Costs; Breakage Costs.
(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.2.3, the Loan shall be a LIBOR Loan. In the event that a LIBOR Disruption Event has occurred, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof by telephone of such fact and determination, confirmed in writing, to Borrower and the Calculation Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Determination Date, upon which notice being given, the Loan shall be converted, from and after the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period, to a Federal Funds Rate Loan bearing interest based on the Federal Funds Alternative Rate in effect on the related Determination Date. In the event the Administrative Agent determines that an Alternative Index has become generally accepted as a successor interest rate index to LIBOR in single family rental real estate finance transactions, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof by telephone of such fact and determination, confirmed in writing, to Borrower and the Calculation Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Determination Date, upon which notice being given, the Loan shall be converted, from and after the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period, to an Alternative Rate Loan bearing interest based on the Alternative Rate in effect on the related Determination Date.
(b)    If, pursuant to the terms of Section 2.2.3(a), the Loan has been converted to a Federal Funds Rate Loan but thereafter the related LIBOR Disruption Event is no longer continuing, Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to Borrower and convert the Federal Funds Rate Loan back to a LIBOR Loan by delivering to Borrower notice of such conversion no later than 11:00 a.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the next succeeding Determination Date, upon which notice being given, the Loan shall be converted, from and after the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period, to a LIBOR Loan bearing interest based on LIBOR in effect on the related Determination Date. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to elect to convert (i) a LIBOR Loan to a Federal Funds Rate Loan or an Alternative Rate Loan or (ii) a Federal Funds Rate Loan or an Alternative Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan. No Alternative Rate Loan shall be converted into a LIBOR Loan.
(c)    In the event that any Change of Law, or compliance by an Affected Party with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) hereafter issued from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:
(i)    shall hereafter impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, liquidity or capital, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Affected Party which is not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR hereunder;
(ii)    shall hereafter have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Affected Party’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Affected Party could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Affected Party’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount deemed by such Affected Party to be material;
(iii)    shall hereafter subject such Affected Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (ii) through (iv) 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

58




(iv)    shall hereafter impose on such Affected Party any other condition affecting this Agreement or the Loan made by such Affected Party;
and the result of any of the foregoing in this Section 2.2.3(c) is to increase the cost to such Affected Party of making, renewing or maintaining loans or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, then, in any such case, Borrower shall, on the next Payment Date occurring at least 10 Business Days following written demand by such Affected Party on Borrower, remit any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Affected Party for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which such Affected Party deems to be material as determined by such Affected Party in its reasonable discretion. If such Affected Party becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.2.3(c), such Affected Party shall provide Borrower with not less than thirty (30) days written notice specifying in reasonable detail the event by reason of which it has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully compensate such Affected Party for such additional cost or reduced amount. A certificate as to any additional costs or amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by such Affected Party to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This Section 2.2.3(c) shall survive payment of the Debt and the satisfaction of all other Obligations.
(d)    Borrower agrees, on the next Payment Date occurring at least 10 Business Days following written demand by such Lender on Borrower, to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (i) any default by Borrower in payment of the principal of or interest on the Loan, including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Loan hereunder, (ii) any prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) of a LIBOR Loan on a day that (A) is not a Payment Date or (B) is a Payment Date if Borrower did not give the prior written notice of such prepayment required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Loan hereunder and (iii) the conversion pursuant to the terms hereof or as contemplated in paragraphs (a) and (b) above in this Section 2.2.3 of a LIBOR Loan to an Alternative Rate Loan on a date other than the Payment Date, including, without limitation, such reasonable costs, losses or expenses sustained or incurred by Lender, arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Loan hereunder (the amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are herein referred to collectively as the “Breakage Costs”); provided, however, Borrower shall not indemnify any Lender from any loss or expense arising from such Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. This provision shall survive payment of the Debt and the satisfaction of all other Obligations.
2.2.4    Additional Costs. Each Affected Party will use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to maintain the availability of the LIBOR Loan hereunder and to avoid or reduce any increased or additional costs payable by Borrower under Section 2.2.3, including, if requested by Borrower, a transfer or assignment of such Affected Party’s Loan to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Affected Party in another jurisdiction, or a redesignation of its lending office with respect to the Loan, in order to maintain the availability of the LIBOR Loan or to avoid or reduce such increased or additional costs, provided that the transfer or assignment or redesignation (a) would not result in any additional costs, expenses or risk to such Affected Party that are not reimbursed by Borrower and (b) would not be disadvantageous in any other respect to such Affected Party as determined by such Affected Party in its reasonable discretion.
2.2.5    Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Loan and, to the extent not prohibited by Legal Requirements, all other

59




portions of the Debt shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due or, if later, such Event of Default occurred. Interest at the Default Rate shall be paid immediately upon demand, which demand may be made as frequently as Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) shall elect, to the extent not prohibited by Legal Requirements.
2.2.6    Usury Savings. This Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loan 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 due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, on the Loan 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 the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loan 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 of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.
2.2.7    Interest Rate Cap Agreement.
(a)    On the Closing Date, Borrower shall enter into an Interest Rate Cap Agreement with a LIBOR strike price equal to the Strike Price. Each Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York and shall contain each of the following provisions:
(i)    the aggregate notional amount of the Interest Rate Cap Agreements shall be equal to the Outstanding Principal Balance;
(ii)    the remaining term of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall at all times extend through the end of the Interest Period in which the Maturity Date occurs;
(iii)    the Counterparty under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be obligated to make a stream of payments directly to the Cash Management Account (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred) on a monthly basis in each case not later than (after giving effect to and assuming the passage of any cure period afforded to such Counterparty under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, which cure period shall not in any event be more than three Business Days) each Payment Date in an amount equal to the product of (i) the notional amount of such Interest Rate Cap Agreement multiplied by (ii) the excess, if any, of LIBOR (including any upward rounding under the definition of LIBOR) over the Strike Price; and
(iv)    if at the time of entering into the Interest Rate Cap Agreement the Counterparty to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement is not the Administrative Agent or one of its Affiliates, the Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall impose no material obligation on the beneficiary thereof (after payment of the acquisition cost) and shall be in all material respects satisfactory in form and substance to Administrative Agent (i) that incorporate customary tax “gross up” provisions, (ii) whereby the Counterparty agrees not to file or join in the filing of any petition against Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law, and (iii) that incorporate, if the Interest Rate Cap Agreement contemplates collateral posting by the Counterparty, a credit

60




support annex setting forth the mechanics for collateral to be calculated and posted that are consistent with the Administrative Agent’s standards, requirements and criteria.
(b)    Borrower shall collaterally assign to Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), pursuant to the Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Protection Agreement (the “Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement”), all of its right, title and interest to receive any and all payments under each Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and shall deliver to Administrative Agent an executed counterpart of such Interest Rate Cap Agreement (which shall, by its terms, authorize the assignment to Administrative Agent and require that the Counterparty deposit any payments directly into the Cash Management Account). Borrower shall notify the Counterparty of such assignment and shall cause the Counterparty under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to execute and deliver the Acknowledgment.
(c)    Borrower shall comply with all of its obligations under the terms and provisions of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. Borrower shall take all actions reasonably requested by Administrative Agent to enforce Administrative Agent’s rights under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in the event of a default by the Counterparty and shall not waive, amend or otherwise modify any of its rights thereunder.
(d)    In the event that Borrower receives written notice from Administrative Agent, or Borrower otherwise obtains actual knowledge, in each case, of any downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the rating of the Counterparty such that it ceases to qualify as an Acceptable Counterparty, unless the Counterparty shall have posted collateral on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent, Borrower shall replace the Interest Rate Cap Agreement with a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement not later than ten (10) Business Days following receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of such downgrade, withdrawal or qualification. In the event that the Counterparty (other than an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent) is downgraded (i) below BBB+ by S&P or (ii) below “Baa1” by Moody’s, a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be required regardless of the posting of collateral. Other than as provided in this Section 2.2.7(d), each Counterparty must be an Acceptable Counterparty at all times.
(e)    In the event that Borrower fails to purchase and deliver to Administrative Agent a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement or fails to maintain the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Administrative Agent may purchase a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement and the cost incurred by Administrative Agent in purchasing such Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date such cost was incurred by Administrative Agent until such cost is reimbursed by Borrower to Administrative Agent.
(f)    If at the time of entering into the Interest Rate Cap Agreement the Counterparty to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement is not the Administrative Agent or one of its Affiliates, then not later than fifteen (15) Business Days following the entry by Borrower into an Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement, Borrower shall obtain and deliver to Administrative Agent an opinion from counsel (which counsel may be in‑house counsel for the Counterparty) for the Counterparty (upon which the Lenders and their respective successors and permitted assigns may rely) which shall provide, in relevant part, that (a “Counterparty Opinion”):
(i)    the Counterparty is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation and has the organizational power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement;

61




(ii)    the execution and delivery of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Replacement 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 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 or Replacement 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 is required for such execution, delivery or performance; and
(iv)    the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or Replacement 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).
(g)    If at any time the Loan converts to an Alternative Rate Loan, Borrower shall enter into a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement not later than twenty (20) days following the conversion date with respect to the Alternative Rate Loan, with an Alternative Rate strike price equal to the Strike Price and in accordance with the other requirements set forth in this Section 2.2.7.
Section 2.3    Loan Payment.
2.3.1    Monthly Debt Service Payments. On each Payment Date, Borrower shall make a payment to the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, equal to the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount. Borrower shall also pay to the Paying Agent, for deposit into the applicable Subaccount on the Closing Date and each Payment Date, as applicable, all amounts required in respect of Reserve Funds as set forth in Article VI and to the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, any Fees due and owing to the Administrative Agent or any of the Servicing Agents on the Closing Date and each Payment Date, as applicable.
2.3.2    Payments Generally. For purposes of making payments hereunder, but not for purposes of calculating Interest Periods, if the day on which such payment is due is not a Business Day, then amounts due on such date shall be due on the immediately preceding Business Day and with respect to payments of principal due on the Maturity Date, interest shall be payable at the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, through and including the last day of the related Interest Period. All amounts due under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to the extent that an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent is the Counterparty) shall be payable without setoff, counterclaim, defense or any other deduction whatsoever.

62




2.3.3    Payment on Maturity Date. Borrower shall pay to the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Persons entitled thereto, on the Maturity Date, the Outstanding Principal Balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any unpaid fees or indemnities).
2.3.4    Late Payment Charge. If any sums due to a Lender or any other Person under the Loan Documents (other than those as to which interest is accruing thereon at the Default Rate pursuant to Section 2.2.5) are not paid by Borrower on or prior to the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to the Paying Agent, for the benefit of such Lender or other Person, upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of four percent (4%) of such unpaid sum or the Maximum Legal Rate times such unpaid sum in order to defray the expense incurred by such Lender or other Person in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate such Lender or other Person for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law.
2.3.5    Method and Place of Payment. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments and prepayments under this Agreement shall be made not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds to the Cash Management Account or such other account as the Administrative Agent may from time to time designate prior to such payment from time to time in writing, and any funds received in the Cash Management Account or other designated account after such time shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

If at any time any Property shall become a Disqualified Property, Borrower shall, no later than the close of business on the fifth (5th) Business Day following the last day of the applicable Cure Period, give notice thereof to Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Calculation Agent) and, at its election, either (i) prepay the Debt in the applicable Release Amount with respect to such Property (by depositing the applicable Release Amount into the Cash Management Account), (ii) unless such Property shall have become a Disqualified Property due to the occurrence of a Voluntary Action, deposit such Release Amount into the Eligibility Reserve Subaccount or (iii) subject to the satisfaction of the Substitution Conditions, effect a Substitution.
(b)    Condemnation or Casualty. If Borrower is required to make any prepayment under Section 5.3 or Section 5.4 as a result of a Condemnation or Casualty, on the first Payment Date following the date on which the Administrative Agent (or the Paying Agent on its behalf) actually receives the applicable Net Proceeds, such Net Proceeds, up to the amount required to be prepaid as provided in Section 5.3 or Section 5.4, as applicable, shall be applied to the prepayment of the Debt.

63




(c)    Transfer. If at any time any Property is sold or otherwise disposed of to a third party (including any assignment of a contract for sale to a Qualified Intermediary or to an affiliate for further sale to a Qualified Intermediary but other than, for the avoidance of doubt, Borrower TRS), then Borrower shall, no later than the close of business on the day on which such Transfer occurs, give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent (including whether such Transfer will be effected as a Like-Kind Exchange) and prepay the Debt in the applicable Release Amount with respect to such Property.

(a)    If, during the continuance of an Event of Default, payment of all or any part of the Debt is tendered by Borrower and accepted or is otherwise recovered by the Lenders (directly or indirectly through the Paying Agent or Administrative Agent and including through application of any Reserve Funds), such tender or recovery shall be deemed to be a voluntary prepayment by Borrower and Borrower shall pay, as part of the Debt, all of the amounts described in Section 2.4.4(a).
(b)    Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any payment of principal, interest and other amounts payable under the Loan Documents from whatever source may be applied by the Paying Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) among the Loan and other Obligations as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion.

(c)    Except during an Event of Default, prepayments received from Borrower (or on behalf of Borrower) by the Paying Agent shall be distributed to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, as applicable, on the date of such prepayment, in the following order of priority: (i) first, to pay any amounts (other than principal, interest, Breakage Costs and Spread Maintenance Premium) then due and payable under the Loan Documents, including any reasonable documented costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with such prepayment; (ii) second, to the Lenders, pro rata (based on the interest due and owing to each Lender), interest payable on the Loan pursuant to Section 2.4.4(a)(i) on the principal being prepaid pursuant to this clause (c); (iii) third, to the Lenders, pro rata, Breakage Costs on the principal prepaid pursuant to this clause (c), (iv) fourth, to the Lenders, pro rata (based on the Spread Maintenance Premium payable to each such Lender), the Spread Maintenance Premium payable on the Loan, to the extent applicable, on the principal being prepaid pursuant to this clause (c) and (v) fifth, to the Lenders, pro rata, principal of the Loan being prepaid pursuant to this clause (c). All prepayments of principal under Section 2.4, together with all other amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.4.4, shall be applied ratably among the Lenders based on their respective Lender Percentages.
(d)    Prepayments of principal under Section 2.4 (other than Section 2.4.2(a), (b) and (c)) shall reduce the Allocated Loan Amounts for each Property on a pro rata basis. Prepayments of principal under Section 2.4.2(a), (b) and (c) shall reduce the Allocated Loan Amount with respect to the applicable Property until the Allocated Loan Amount of such Property and any interest, fees or other Obligations attributable to that portion of the Debt prepaid is equal to zero, and any excess of such prepayment shall be applied to reduce the Allocated Loan Amounts for the remaining Properties on a pro rata basis. In connection with any prepayment under Section 2.4.1 or Section 2.4.2, Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Calculation Agent) a schedule of Properties (the “ALA Schedule”) showing the Allocated Loan Amount of each Property prior to and after the application of such prepayment to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent.
(e)    Administrative Agent shall, upon the written request and at the expense of Borrower, upon payment in full of the Debt in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, (i) release the Liens of the Collateral Documents, and (ii) cause all original certificates evidencing any Equity Interests in Borrower and Borrower TRS to be returned to Borrower. In connection with the releases and/or reconveyance of the Liens, Borrower shall submit to Administrative Agent, forms of releases and/or reconveyances of Liens (and related Loan Documents) for execution by Administrative Agent and, if applicable, be the forms appropriate in the jurisdictions in which the Properties are located. Such releases shall contain standard provisions protecting the rights of Administrative Agent. Borrower shall pay all documented costs, taxes and expenses associated with the release and/or reconveyance of the Liens of the Mortgage Documents, if any, including Administrative Agent’s reasonable attorneys’ fees of external counsel.

Section 2.6    Rent Deposit Account/Cash Management.

68




2.6.1    Rent Deposit Account.
(a)    During the Term, Borrower shall establish and maintain one or more accounts for the purpose of collecting Rents (each, a “Rent Deposit Account”) at an Eligible Institution (a “Rent Deposit Bank”). Borrower shall cause any Rents which are paid to Borrower or the Manager by wire transfer or other electronic means to be deposited directly into a Rent Deposit Account. Subject to the foregoing, in the event Borrower or any Manager directly receives any Rents, Borrower shall cause all Rents that are paid to or received by Borrower or the Manager after receipt and identification thereof by Borrower or the Manager (which identification shall be made promptly by Borrower and the Manager) to be deposited into a Rent Deposit Account or the Cash Management Account within two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof by Borrower or any Manager. Each Rent Deposit Account shall be subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement and Borrower and the Manager shall have access to and may make withdrawals from and withhold the deposit of Rent payments from any Rent Deposit Account for the sole purpose of making Rent Refunds; provided, that, in no event shall the aggregate amount of Rent Refunds so withdrawn from or withheld from the Rent Deposit Accounts during any calendar month exceed two and five-tenths percent (2.5%) of the total Rents actually deposited into the Rent Deposit Accounts during the prior calendar month; provided, further, that during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may exercise sole control and dominion over the Rent Deposit Accounts and neither Borrower nor the Manager shall have the right of access to, withdraw from or to withhold deposits from any Rent Deposit Account. Borrower shall (or shall instruct Manager to) cause all funds on deposit in any Rent Deposit Account to be deposited into the Cash Management Account every second (2nd) Business Day (or more frequently in Borrower’s discretion); provided, that prior to any acceleration of the Loan, Borrower may cause Rent Deposit Bank to retain a reasonable amount of funds in each Rent Deposit Account with respect to anticipated overdrafts, charge-backs and bank fees and any minimum balance required by the applicable Deposit Account Control Agreement or account terms for the Rent Deposit Accounts, not in excess of $100,000 in the aggregate for all such Rent Deposit Banks and Rent Deposit Accounts. Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties a first-priority security interest in all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the Rent Deposit Accounts and all deposits at any time contained therein and the proceeds thereof and shall (and shall cause Borrower TRS to) take all actions necessary to maintain in favor of the Administrative Agent a perfected first priority security interest in the Rent Deposit Accounts.
(b)    All monies now or hereafter deposited into the Rent Deposit Accounts shall be deemed additional security for the Debt.
(c)    During the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may (or, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, shall), in addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to Administrative Agent, apply any sums then present in the Rent Deposit Accounts to the payment of the Debt in any order in its sole discretion.
(d)    Funds on deposit in the Rent Deposit Accounts shall not be commingled with other monies held by Borrower, the Manager or Rent Deposit Bank.
(e)    Borrower shall not pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Rent Deposit Accounts or the monies deposited therein or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach thereto (other than Permitted Liens described in clauses (iii), (iv) and (x) of the definition thereof), or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 financing statements to be filed with respect thereto, except, in the case of Borrower, in favor of Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties.

69




(f)    Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent and hold Administrative Agent harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations and reasonable documented costs and expenses (including litigation costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees of external counsel and out-of-pocket expenses) arising from or in any way connected with the Rent Deposit Accounts and/or the related Deposit Account Control Agreement (unless arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent) or the performance of the obligations for which the Rent Deposit Accounts were established.
(g)    All costs and expenses for establishing and maintaining the Rent Deposit Accounts shall be paid by Borrower.
2.6.2    Cash Management Account.
(a)    During the Term, Paying Agent shall establish and maintain the Cash Management Account as a segregated Eligible Account to be held by Paying Agent at the Cash Management Account Bank in trust and for the benefit of Borrower and the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), which Cash Management Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent. Borrower hereby grants to Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, 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 Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, a perfected first-priority security interest in the Cash Management Account. Borrower will not in any way alter or modify the Cash Management Account. The Paying Agent, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and at the direction of the Administrative Agent, 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.
(b)    The insufficiency of funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account shall not relieve Borrower from the obligation to make any payments, as and when due pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such obligations shall be separate and independent, and not conditioned on any event or circumstance whatsoever.
(c)    All funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account following the occurrence of an Event of Default may be applied by the Paying Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) in such order and priority as Administrative Agent shall determine.
(d)    In the event of any Transfer of any Property, Borrower shall (or shall cause the Manager or the closing title company or escrow agent, as applicable, to) deposit directly into the Cash Management Account the Net Sale Proceeds (or, in connection with Like-Kind Exchange, Unrestricted Cash in an amount equal to the net cash proceeds expected to be received by the Qualified Intermediary in respect of such Release Property based on the consideration under the contract assigned to such Qualified Intermediary as of the Release Date) for allocation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrower shall cause all Cap Receipts to be paid directly to the Cash Management Account. Except as expressly provided herein, Borrower shall (and shall cause the Manager to) deposit any other Collections received by or on behalf of Borrower directly into the Cash Management Account or a Rent Deposit Account within three (3) Business Days following receipt thereof.
(e)    The Administrative Agent may also direct the Paying Agent to 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 “Subaccounts”). The Reserve Funds will be maintained in Subaccounts.

70




(f)    The Cash Management Account and all other Subaccounts shall be subject to the Blocked Account Control Agreement and shall be under the sole control and dominion of Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties. Neither Borrower nor the Manager shall have the right of withdrawal with respect to the Cash Management Account or any Subaccounts except with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, and neither Borrower, nor the Manager, nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through Borrower or the Manager, other than the Paying Agent, shall have any right or authority to give instructions with respect to the Cash Management Account or the Subaccounts.
(g)    Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Cash Management Account Bank shall comply with (i) the instructions originated by the Administrative Agent (or by the Paying Agent in accordance with the written instructions of the Administrative Agent) with respect to the disposition of funds in the Cash Management Account and the Subaccounts without the further consent of Borrower or the 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 the Administrative Agent (or by the Paying Agent in accordance with the written instructions of the Administrative Agent) directing the transfer or redemption of any financial asset relating to the Cash Management Account or any Subaccount without further consent by Borrower or any other Person. The Cash Management Account and each Subaccount 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.
(h)    As of the date hereof the Cash Management Account and the Subaccounts for U.S. federal income tax reporting and withholding purposes will be owned by Borrower (the “Account Owner”). The Account Owner shall provide Wells Fargo in its capacity as the Paying Agent with (i) an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8 or any successor forms on or before the Business Day prior to the date hereof, and (ii) any additional IRS forms (or updated versions of any previously submitted IRS forms) or other documentation at such time or times required by applicable law or upon the reasonable request of Wells Fargo as may be necessary (a) to reduce or eliminate the imposition of U.S. withholding taxes to the Paying Agent and (b) to permit Wells Fargo to fulfill its tax reporting obligations under applicable law with respect to the Cash Management Account and the Subaccounts or any amounts paid to the Account Owner. If any IRS form or other documentation previously delivered becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect (including without limitation in connection with the transfer of any Account Owner change), the Account Owner shall timely provide to Wells Fargo in its capacity as the Paying Agent accurately updated and complete versions of such IRS forms or other documentation. Wells Fargo, both in its individual capacity and in its capacity as the Paying Agent, shall have no liability to the Account Owner or any other Person in connection with any tax reporting or tax withholding amounts paid or withheld from the Cash Management Account or the Subaccounts pursuant to applicable law arising from the Account Owner’s failure to timely provide an accurate, correct and complete IRS Form W-9, an appropriate IRS Form W-8 or such other documentation contemplated under this paragraph.
2.6.3    Order of Priority of Funds in Cash Management Account. Unless otherwise directed by Administrative Agent during the continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 2.6.4, the Paying Agent shall (in accordance with the Monthly Payment Report as approved by the Administrative Agent as contemplated by Section 2.11(a)(i)) apply Collections on deposit in the Cash Management Account for the related Collection Period on each Payment Date in the following order of priority (in each case, after taking into account any prepayments made prior to such Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.4.4):

2.6.4    Application During Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (including Section 2.6.3), upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, at its option (and shall upon written instruction of the Majority Lenders) instruct the Paying Agent to apply any Collections then in the possession of the Administrative Agent or the Paying Agent (including any Reserve Funds on deposit in the Subaccounts) or the Rent Deposit Banks to the payment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as the Administrative Agent may determine in its sole and absolute discretion. The Administrative Agent’s right to withdraw and apply any of the foregoing funds shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties under the Loan Documents.
2.6.5    Payments Received in the Cash Management Account. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower’s obligations with respect to the payment of the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount and amounts required to be deposited into the Reserve Funds, if any, shall be deemed satisfied to the extent sufficient amounts are deposited in the Cash Management Account to satisfy such obligations pursuant to this Agreement on the dates each such payment is required, regardless of whether any of such amounts are so applied by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Paying Agent on behalf of any of the foregoing.
Section 2.7    Withholding Taxes.
2.7.1    Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower 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 Borrower) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by Borrower, then Borrower 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 and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower 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 2.7.1) the applicable Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

73




2.7.2    Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes.
2.7.3    Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify each Lender, on the first Payment Date that is at least ten (10) Business Days after written demand by such Lender on Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent and the Paying Agent) therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.7.3) payable or paid by such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender and any reasonable documented 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; provided that if such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, fails to give notice to Borrower of the imposition of any Indemnified Taxes within 180 days following its receipt of actual written notice of the imposition of such Indemnified Taxes, there will be no obligation for Borrower to pay interest or penalties attributable to the period beginning after such 180th day and ending seven (7) days after Borrower receives notice from such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
2.7.4    Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.7, Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Paying Agent 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 the Administrative Agent and the Paying Agent.
2.7.5    Status of Lenders.
(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Paying Agent at the time or times reasonably requested by such Persons, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by any such Person as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Paying Agent shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower as will enable Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Paying Agent to determine whether or not such 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 2.7.5(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Paying Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Paying Agent), executed

74

76




net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.

(h)    The Paying Agent shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Paying Agent obtains actual knowledge of such event or the Paying Agent receives written notice of such event from any Relevant Party, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, as the case may be.
(i)    Without limiting the generality of this Section 2.10, the Paying Agent shall have no duty (i) to record, file or deposit this Agreement or any agreement referred to herein or any financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest in the Collateral, or maintain any such recording, filing or depositing or to subsequently record, refile or redeposit any of the same, (ii) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.7.5, to pay or discharge any Taxes, Property Taxes, assessment or other governmental charge or any Lien or encumbrance of any kind owing with respect to, assessed or levied against, any part of the Collateral, (iii) to confirm, recalculate or verify the contents, accuracy or completeness of any reports or certificates of the Administrative Agent or Calculation Agent delivered to the Paying Agent pursuant to this Agreement believed by the Paying Agent to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties or (iv) to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of Borrower’s representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
(j)    The Paying Agent shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability shall not be reasonably assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Paying Agent to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement.
(k)    The Paying Agent may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, any certificate of a Responsible Officer, any Monthly Payment Report, any

(l)    The Paying Agent may consult with counsel of its choice with regard to legal questions arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by the Paying Agent in good faith and in accordance therewith. In connection with any request that the Paying Agent take any action or refrain from taking any action outside the scope of this Agreement, the Paying Agent shall be entitled to request and conclusively rely upon, and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon, an officer’s certificate or opinion of counsel delivered by or on behalf of such requesting party. Any opinion of counsel reasonably requested by the Paying Agent shall be an expense of Borrower.
(m)    The Paying Agent shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies vested in it by this Agreement (except to comply with its obligations under this Agreement and any other Loan Document to which it is a party) or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation under this Agreement or in relation to this Agreement, at the request, order or direction of the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, or such Lender shall have offered to the Paying Agent security or indemnity reasonably acceptable to the Paying Agent against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred therein or thereby.

The reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by Borrower.
(o)    The Paying Agent shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of the Administrative Agent, the Calculation Agent, Borrower, any Lenders, any Counterparty or any other Person.

If any property subject hereto is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon under any court order or in case the payment, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such property shall be stayed or enjoined by any court order, or in case any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting such property or any part hereof, then and in any of such events the Paying Agent is authorized, in

80




its sole discretion, to rely upon and comply with any such order, writ, judgment or decree with which it is advised by legal counsel of its own choosing is binding upon it, and if it complies with any such order, writ, judgment or decree it shall not be liable to any other party hereto or to any other Person by reason of such compliance even though such order, writ, judgment or decree maybe subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.

In the event of such termination or removal, the Administrative Agent shall make reasonable efforts to appoint a successor paying agent. If, however, a successor paying agent is not appointed by the Administrative Agent and, if applicable, Borrower, within ninety (90) days after the giving of such notice of resignation or removal, the Paying Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor paying agent, and the costs of such petition shall be paid by Borrower.
(t)    Any successor paying agent appointed pursuant hereto shall execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Administrative Agent, Borrower and to the predecessor Paying Agent an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the predecessor Paying Agent shall become effective and such successor paying agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties, and obligations of its predecessor as Paying Agent under this Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as Paying Agent.

(q)    If the Calculation Agent shall at any time receive conflicting instructions from the Administrative Agent and Borrower or any other party to this Agreement and the conflict between such instructions cannot be resolved by reference to the terms of this Agreement, the Calculation Agent shall be entitled to rely on the instructions of the Administrative Agent. The Calculation Agent may rely upon the validity of documents delivered to it, without investigation as to their authenticity or legal effectiveness, and the parties to this Agreement will hold the Calculation Agent harmless from any claims that may arise or be asserted against the Calculation Agent because of the invalidity of any such documents or their failure to fulfill their intended purpose.
(r)    The Calculation Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to disregard any and all notices or instructions given by any other party hereto or by any other Person, except only such notices or instructions as are herein provided for and orders or process of any court entered or issued with or without jurisdiction. If any property subject hereto is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon under any court order or in case the payment, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such property shall be stayed or enjoined by any court order, or in case any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting such property or any part hereof, then and in any of such events the Calculation Agent is authorized, in its sole discretion, to rely upon and comply with any such order, writ, judgment or decree with which it is advised by legal counsel of its own choosing is binding upon it, and if it complies with any such order, writ, judgment or decree it shall not be liable to any other party hereto or to any other Person by reason of such compliance even though such order, writ, judgment or decree maybe subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.
(s)    The Calculation Agent, at its sole cost and expense, may delegate or perform any of its duties under this Agreement by or through sub-agents, service providers or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Calculation Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents, service providers or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. Such agents, service providers and attorneys-in-fact shall be entitled to all the same indemnification rights and exculpation by the Loan Parties as may apply to the Calculation Agent.
(t)    The Calculation Agent may: (i) terminate its obligations as Calculation Agent under this Agreement (subject to the terms set forth herein) upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that, without the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Majority Lenders and, unless an Event of Default is continuing, Borrower, such resignation shall not be effective until a successor calculation agent acceptable to the Administrative Agent and, unless an Event of Default is continuing, Borrower, and to whose appointment the Majority Lenders do not reasonably object within five (5) Business Days after the Lenders are notified thereof (or such shorter period in which the Majority Lenders consent thereto), shall have accepted appointment as Calculation Agent, pursuant hereto and shall have agreed to be bound by the terms of this Agreement; or (ii) be removed at any time by written demand of the Administrative Agent and, unless an Event of Default is continuing, Borrower, delivered to the Calculation Agent and the Lenders; provided, further, however, that such removal shall not be effective until the appointment of a successor calculation agent acceptable to the Administrative Agent and, unless an Event of Default is continuing, Borrower, and to whose appointment the Majority Lenders do not reasonably object within five (5) Business Days after the Lenders are notified thereof (or such shorter period in which the Majority Lenders consent thereto), shall have accepted appointment as Calculation Agent, pursuant hereto and shall have agreed to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. In the event of such termination or removal, the Administrative Agent shall make reasonable efforts to appoint a successor calculation agent. If, however, a successor calculation agent is not appointed by the Administrative Agent and, if applicable, Borrower within ninety (90) days after the giving of a notice of resignation or removal,

86




the Calculation Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor calculation agent, and the costs of such petition shall be paid by Borrower.
(u)    Any successor calculation agent appointed pursuant hereto shall execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Administrative Agent, Borrower and to the predecessor Calculation Agent an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the predecessor Calculation Agent shall become effective and such successor calculation agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties, and obligations of its predecessor as Calculation Agent under this Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as Calculation Agent. The predecessor Calculation Agent shall upon payment of its fees and expenses deliver to the successor calculation agent all documents and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement; and the Administrative Agent and the predecessor Calculation Agent shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor calculation agent all such rights, powers, duties, and obligations.
(v)    In the event the Calculation Agent’s appointment hereunder is terminated without cause, Borrower shall reimburse the Calculation Agent for the reasonable documented expenses of the Calculation Agent incurred in transferring any funds in its possession to the successor calculation agent, and if such termination occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of the appointment of the Calculation Agent, pay to the terminated Calculation Agent a termination fee equal to the unearned prorated portion of the Calculation Agent Fee for that first year.
(w)    The Loan Parties and the Sponsor hereby agree, in connection with an appointment of a successor calculation agent, to negotiate in good faith any modifications to this Agreement related to the rights and obligations of the Calculation Agent which are reasonably requested by such successor calculation agent.
(x)    Other than with respect to any information that the Calculation Agent has an express duty hereunder to review, the Calculation Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any fact or matter for purposes of this Agreement unless an employee of the Calculation Agent responsible for performing the Calculation Agent’s duties under this Agreement (i) has actual knowledge thereof or (ii) receives written notice with respect thereto.
(y)    The Calculation Agent shall not be under any obligation to take any action in the performance of its respective duties hereunder that would be in violation of applicable law.
(z)    The recitals contained herein shall not be taken as the statements of the Calculation Agent and the Calculation Agent assumes no responsibility for their correctness.
(aa)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Calculation Agent shall not be liable for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits), even if the Calculation Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.
Section 2.12    Indemnification of Administrative Agent and Paying Agent.
(a)    Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Paying Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent or the Paying

87




Agent, as applicable, for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), and (ii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or the Paying Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable documented expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such 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 any Lender by the Administrative Agent or the Paying Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent or the Paying Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent or the Paying Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.12.
Section 2.13    [Reserved].
Section 2.14    Actions and Events Outside of Lenders’ and Agents’ Control.
None of the Lenders, the Servicing Agents or the Administrative Agent shall be liable in any way to any Relevant Party or third party for any such Lender’s, Servicing Agent’s or the Administrative Agent’s failure to perform or delay in performing under the Loan Documents (and the Administrative Agent, Servicing Agent or any Lender, as applicable, may suspend or terminate all or any portion of its related obligations under the Loan Documents during any such period) if such failure to perform or delay in performing results directly or indirectly from, or is based upon, any force majeure event, including, without limitation, acts of God, strikes, lockouts, boycotts, blockades, riots, acts of war, terrorism, rebellion, insurrection, epidemics, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or any other similar cause or event beyond the Administrative Agent’s, Servicing Agent’s or such Lender’s control. No “Default” or “Event of Default” shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder as a result of the failure of a Loan Party to make payment for an obligation that such Lender, Servicing Agent or the Administrative Agent is required to satisfy through an application of funds on deposit in an Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Lender, or the Administrative Agent fails to so pay as the result of any event described in the foregoing sentence, and the performance by any Loan Party of its obligations under this Agreement shall be extended day-for-day by each day that such Loan Party is unable to so perform hereunder directly as the result of such Lender, the Administrative Agent or Servicing Agent failing to perform hereunder as the result of any event described in the foregoing sentence.

3.1.1    Organization. Each Loan Party has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing 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 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

88




Material Adverse Effect. The sole business of each Loan Party is as described in clause (i) of the definition of Special Purpose Entity. Each Loan Party is a Special Purpose Entity.
3.1.2    Proceedings. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary limited liability company 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 this Agreement, the other Loan Documents 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). The Loan Documents are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense by any Loan Party including the defense of usury, nor would the operation of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Loan Documents unenforceable, and no Loan Party has asserted any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense with respect thereto.
3.1.3    No Conflicts.

104




(b)    Prior to contributing a Property to Borrower TRS, Borrower shall cause Borrower TRS to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assumption of the Mortgage, if applicable related to such Property, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) and Borrower.
4.1.24    Updated BPO Values. During June and December of each calendar year, commencing in June 2019, the Administrative Agent (or, Borrower, on the Administrative Agent’s behalf) shall, at Borrower’s expense, obtain updated Broker Price Opinions with respect to a random sample of 5% (by number) of the Eligible Properties. If such random sample shows, on a weighted average basis for the sampled Eligible Properties, that the LTV Ratio for the sampled Properties using such updated Broker Price Opinions is greater than 80%, then the Administrative Agent (or Borrower, on the Administrative Agent’s behalf) shall, at Borrower’s expense, obtain additional updated Broker Price Opinions with respect to an additional random sample of another 30% (by number) of the Eligible Properties. If such sample shows, on a weighted average basis for all of the sampled Eligible Properties, that the LTV Ratio for all such sampled Properties using such updated Broker Price Opinions minus the LTV Ratio of such Properties as of the Closing Date exceeds 80%, then the Administrative Agent (or, Borrower, on the Administrative Agent’s behalf) shall, at Borrower’s expense, obtain additional updated Broker Price Opinions with respect to all of the Eligible Properties. Such updated Broker Price Opinions shall, on conclusion of the foregoing process, be used as the basis for future calculations of the BPO Value of the sampled Properties.

Any Insurance Proceeds in connection with any Casualty (whether or not Administrative Agent elects to settle and adjust the claim or Borrower settles such claim) shall be due and payable solely to Administrative Agent and held by Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If Borrower or any party other than Administrative Agent receives any Insurance Proceeds, Borrower shall immediately deliver such proceeds to Administrative Agent and shall endorse, and cause all such third parties to endorse, check payable therefor to the order of Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders.

Borrower hereby releases Administrative Agent from any and all liability with respect to the settlement and adjustment by Administrative Agent of any claims in respect of any Casualty, except to the extent Administrative Agent

122




has engaged in any fraud or willful misconduct in respect thereto as determined in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

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 this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until Condemnation Proceeds shall have been actually received and applied by Administrative Agent, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. If Borrower or any party other than Administrative Agent receives any Condemnation Proceeds, Borrower shall immediately deliver such proceeds to Administrative Agent and shall endorse, and cause all such third parties to endorse, a check payable therefor to the order of Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders. Administrative Agent 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.

(xiv)    if any Loan Party, Sponsor or any subsidiary of Sponsor that owns a direct or indirect ownership interest in any Loan Party shall be convicted of a Patriot Act Offense by a court of competent jurisdiction or becomes subject to Sanctions;

135




cure such breach or default within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such 30-day period may be extended in the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent for such time as is reasonably necessary for Borrower in the exercise of due diligence to cure such breach or default, such additional period not to exceed thirty (30) days; or
(xxi)    a Change of Control shall occur without the prior written consent of the Majority Lenders and the Administrative Agent.
(b)    During the continuance of an Event of Default, 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, but subject to Section 7.2(b) below and, in the case of an Event of Default described in clauses (vii) or (viii) above, applicable bankruptcy or similar law, and during the continuance thereof, the Administrative Agent may, and shall at the request of Majority Lenders, take such action, without notice or demand, that Administrative Agent deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against any Relevant Party and in and to any or all of the Properties, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and the Administrative Agent may, and shall at the request of Majority Lenders, enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against the Relevant Parties and any or all of the Properties, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and, without limiting the foregoing, upon any Event of Default described in clauses (vii) or (viii) above, the Debt and Other Obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.
Section 7.2    Remedies.
(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 Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent (and shall be exercised at the direction of the Majority Lenders; provided that if Majority Lenders is Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. and no other Lender, then the direction of at least one additional Lender shall be required in addition to Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. to the extent that there is more than one Lender of the Loan) at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Administrative Agent 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 all or any part of any Property. Any such actions taken by Administrative Agent shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Administrative Agent permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Administrative Agent is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Administrative Agent shall remain in full force and effect until Administrative Agent has exhausted all of its remedies against the Properties and if applicable, each Mortgage has been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.

136




(b)    Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Administrative Agent to resort to any Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in any preference or priority to any other Property, and Administrative Agent may seek satisfaction out of all of the Properties and the other Collateral, or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Administrative Agent shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Lien of the Mortgages, if applicable, and the other Collateral Documents in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Mortgages, in each case, if applicable, and the other Collateral Documents then due and payable as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Administrative Agent may foreclose the Lien of one or more of the Mortgages (if applicable) and/or the other Collateral Documents to recover such delinquent payments or (ii) in the event Administrative Agent elects to accelerate less than the entire Outstanding Principal Balance of the Loan, Administrative Agent may foreclose the Lien of one or more of the Mortgages (if applicable) and/or the other Collateral Documents to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Administrative Agent may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Mortgages (if applicable) and the other Collateral Documents as Administrative Agent may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Collateral shall remain subject to the Mortgages (if Administrative Agent has elected to procure the Springing Mortgage Documents following a Springing Deed of Trust Event) and the other Collateral Documents to secure payment of sums secured by the Collateral Documents and not previously recovered.
(c)    As used in this Section 7.2, a “foreclosure” shall include, without limitation, any sale by power of sale.
Section 7.3    Remedies Cumulative; Waivers. The rights, powers and remedies of Administrative Agent under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Administrative Agent may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Administrative Agent may determine in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

137




Section 7.4    Administrative Agent’s Right to Perform. If Borrower fails to perform any covenant or obligation contained herein and such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) Business Days after Borrower’s receipt of written notice thereof from the Administrative Agent, without in any way limiting the Administrative Agent’s right to exercise any of its rights, powers or remedies as provided hereunder, or under any of the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent incurred or paid in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower to Administrative Agent upon demand and if not paid shall be added to the Obligations (and to the extent permitted under applicable laws, secured by the Mortgages, if applicable, and the other Collateral Documents) and shall bear interest thereafter at the Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to send notice to Borrower of any such failure.
ARTICLE VIII    PARTICIPATION AND SALE OF LOAN
Section 8.1    Sale of Loan/Participation.
(a)    At no cost to any Loan Party, any Lender may, upon at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and without the consent of any Loan Party (except as otherwise contemplated in the definition of Permitted Assignee), assign to one or more Permitted Assignees any of its rights, title, obligations and interests under this Agreement; provided, however, that any purported assignment by a Lender to a Permitted Assignee or any other Person that is not (i) a Lender or (ii) an Affiliate of such Lender will require the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). No consent of Borrower shall be required for any assignment by a Lender (regardless of whether or not such assignee is a Permitted Assignee) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement, and the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and after receiving an acceptance from the Administrative Agent, to the Calculation Agent, for recording in the Lender Record, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $2,500.
(b)    Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (y) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish such rights and be released from such obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance, the Calculation Agent, on behalf of the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been duly completed, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Lender Record and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to Borrower and the Paying Agent (by delivering the Assignment and Acceptance to such party).

138




(c)    Any Lender may, without the consent of any Loan Party, at no cost to any Loan Party, sell participations to one or more Persons (excluding all Competitors and any Persons that themselves or any of their Affiliates are engaged in owning, operating and/or managing single-family rental residential properties) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including the outstanding Loan); provided that following the sale of a participation under this Agreement (i) the obligations of such Lender shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii)  Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such Lender sells such a participation shall provide that the Participant shall not have any right to direct the enforcement of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that requires 100% consent of the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.4. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any Lender’s source of funds may derive in part from its Participants. Accordingly, subject to the limitations set forth in this clause (c), references in Section 2.2.3 and the other terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to breakage indemnities, reserve and capital adequacy requirements, expenses, increased costs, reduced receipts and the like as they pertain to the Lenders shall be deemed also to include those of its Participants. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.2.3, it being understood that any documentation required to be delivered under Section 2.7.5 shall be delivered to the participating Lender by the Lender that sold the participation to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 8.1(c); provided that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.2.3 with respect to any participation 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 of Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.
(d)    Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Loan Parties may not assign any of their respective rights or obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender.
(e)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights (including rights to payment of the principal balance of the Loan and interest with respect thereto and/or the rights to payment of interest with respect to the Loan) hereunder to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of Borrower or the Administrative Agent; provided, that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall (x) release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto or (y) create any additional, or modify any existing, obligations of Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
(f)    If requested by Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. or the Administrative Agent in connection with the sales of interests in the Loan by Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. (such initial sales are hereinafter referred to as a “Loan Syndication”), the Loan Parties shall provide information in the possession or control of Borrower or its Affiliates, attorneys, accountants or other agents or which may be reasonably required by Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. in order to consummate a successful Loan Syndication; provided, that the foregoing shall not require any Loan Party to undertake any undue burden or expense; provided further that in no event shall any Loan Party be required to provide additional legal opinions. In addition, Borrower acknowledges that Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. or the Administrative Agent may release or disclose to potential transferees or participants of the Loan that agree to be subject to the confidentiality provisions

139




set forth in Section 9.27, originals or copies of the Loan Documents, title information, engineering reports, financial statements, operating statements, appraisals, Leases, and all other materials, documents and information in such Person’s possession or which such Person is entitled to receive under the Loan Documents with respect to the Loan, any Relevant Party, Managers, or the Properties.
Section 8.2    Lender Record; Participant Register.
The Calculation Agent, on behalf of the Administrative Agent, as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, shall maintain a record that identifies each owner (including successors and assignees) of an interest in the Loan, including the name of the owner, and each owner’s rights to the Loan (the “Lender Record”), and shall record all transfers of an interest in the Loan, including each assignment and each Lender’s Lender Percentage in the Lender Record. The original Lender Record shall be based on the Lenders reflected in this Agreement as of the Closing Date. 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 Calculation Agent, upon written notice of any transfer from the Administrative Agent, shall update the Lender Record to reflect the transfer. In the absence of written notice of any transfer from the Administrative Agent, the Calculation Agent shall have no duty to update the Lender Record and shall have no liability for any resulting inaccuracy of the Lender Record, or any incorrect payments resulting from any such inaccuracy of the Lender Record. The Lender Record shall be available for inspection by Borrower upon request from the Administrative Agent, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Lender Record as provided in this paragraph. It is intended that the foregoing paragraph will comply with Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations and Proposed U.S. Department of Treasury regulation Section 1.163-5(b) such that all or any portion of the Loan is in registered form.
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 the Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations and Proposed U.S. Department of Treasury regulation Section 1.163-5(b). The entries in the Lender Record and Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower, each Lender and any of its successors and assigns, the Paying Agent and the Calculation Agent shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Lender Record 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.
ARTICLE IX    MISCELLANEOUS
Section 9.1    Survival. This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lenders of the Loan and the execution and delivery to Administrative Agent of this Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as all or any of the Debt is outstanding and unpaid unless a longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Whenever in

140




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.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.4, guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by the Relevant Parties in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Relevant Party and may be, together with this Agreement, amended, supplemented and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the applicable Relevant Party without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender if such amendment, supplement or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects or (iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or any other instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt

143




payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

Section 9.8    Headings. The Article and/or Section headings and the Table of Contents in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.
Section 9.9    Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
Section 9.10    Preferences. The Administrative Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder in accordance with this Agreement. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties).
Section 9.11    Waiver of Notice. Following the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from the Administrative Agent, any Servicing Agent or any Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by such Person to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant

145




to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from the Administrative Agent, any Servicing Agent and any Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents do not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by such Person to Borrower.
Section 9.12    Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that the Administrative Agent, a Lender or any of their respective agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent, each Lender and their respective agents shall not be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking specific performance, injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether the Administrative Agent, a Lender or any of their respective agents has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.
Section 9.13    Indemnity.
Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Persons from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not an Indemnified Person shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Person in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to any Indemnified Person hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnified Persons.
Section 9.14    Schedules and Exhibits Incorporated. The Schedules and Exhibits annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.
Section 9.15    Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of a 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

146




offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.
Section 9.16    No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party; Beneficiaries.
(a)    Borrower and Administrative Agent and Lenders 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, on the one hand and Administrative Agent and Lenders, on the other hand nor to grant Administrative Agent or Lenders any interest in the Properties other than, if applicable, that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.
(b)    This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Administrative Agent and Lenders and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lenders to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lenders and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lenders will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lenders if, in their sole discretion, deem it advisable or desirable to do so.
Section 9.17    Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any of their respective Affiliates (with respect to the Loan) shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent, such Lenders or such Affiliates in their sole discretion (other than to the extent included in any disclosures or filings required under the Securities and Exchange Commission or state securities laws, in which case Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall be limited to providing the Lenders with a reasonable prior opportunity to review). Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders 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. Details such as the addresses of the Properties, the amount of the Loan, the date of the closing and descriptions of the size/locations of the Properties shall only be included subject to Borrower’s approval in advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower’s approval shall not be required for the publication by any Lender of notice of the Loan by means of a customary tombstone advertisement, which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include the amount of the Loan, the number of Properties as of the Closing Date and the parties involved in the transactions contemplated hereby.
Section 9.18    Cross Default; Cross Collateralization; Waiver of Marshalling of Assets.

147




(a)    Borrower acknowledges that Lenders have made the Loan to Borrower upon 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 Debt; (ii) an Event of Default under this Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under each Mortgage; (iii) each Mortgage shall constitute security for the Debt as if a single blanket lien were placed on all of the Properties security for the Debt; 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 and others with interests in Borrower, 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 the Administrative Agent and the Lenders 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 Administrative Agent and the Lenders 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 Administrative Agent (on behalf of Lenders) 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 hereby expressly consents to and authorizes, at the option of Administrative Agent, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of any combination of the Properties.
Section 9.19    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 each 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 this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the such Loan Documents without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of an Administrative Agent or any Lender. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall 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 the Administrative Agent or such 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 the Administrative Agent or such Lender’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that such Administrative Agent and the Lenders engage in the business of real estate financings and other real estate

148




transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.
Section 9.20    Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower hereby represents that neither it nor Sponsor has dealt with any financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Administrative Agent harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, reasonable documented costs and expenses of any kind (including the Administrative Agent’s attorneys’ fees of external counsel and out-of-pocket expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or the Administrative Agent in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 9.20 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.
Section 9.21    Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, among any of the parties hereto are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section 9.22    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. Copies of originals, including copies delivered by facsimile, pdf or other electronic means shall have the same import and effect as original counterparts and shall be valid, enforceable and binding for the purposes of this Agreement.
Section 9.23    Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it with respect to any Obligations in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender entitled to receive a ratable share of such payment, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase for cash without recourse or warranty a portion of such Obligations so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its ratable proportion of such Obligations; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.
Section 9.24    Exculpation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower or any other party to select, review, inspect, examine, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform Borrower or any third party of (a) the existence, quality, adequacy or suitability of Broker Price Opinions of the Properties or Collateral, (b) any environmental report, or (c) any other matters or items, including property inspections that are contemplated in the Loan Documents. Any such selection, review, inspection, examination and the like, and any other due diligence conducted by Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), is solely for the purpose of protecting the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights under the Loan Documents, and

149




shall not render the Administrative Agent liable to Borrower or any third party for the existence, sufficiency, accuracy, completeness or legality thereof.
Section 9.25    Patriot Act Records and Compliance.
(a)    The Administrative Agent, each Servicing Agent and each Lender hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower and Sponsor, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and Sponsor and other information that will allow such Person to identify Borrower or Sponsor in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Administrative Agent and Lenders, their respective affiliates and their respective equityholders and employees (for purposes of this Section 9.26, the “Lending Parties”) have no obligation to conduct any independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities (including any contingent, derivative or off-balance sheet assets and liabilities) of Sponsor, Borrower or any other Person or any of their respective affiliates or to advise or opine on any related solvency or viability issues.
(b)    It is understood and agreed that (i) the Lending Parties shall act under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as independent contractors, (ii) the Transaction is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Lending Parties, on the one hand, and Borrower, on the other, (iii) each Lending Party is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of Borrower, Sponsor or their respective affiliates, stockholders, employees or creditors or any other Person and (iv) nothing in this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Transaction or otherwise shall be deemed to create (A) a fiduciary duty (or other implied duty) on the party of any Lending Party to Sponsor, Borrower, any of their respective affiliates, stockholders, employees or creditors, or any other Person or (B) a fiduciary or agency relationship between Sponsor, Borrower or any of their respective affiliates, stockholders, employees or creditors, on the one hand, and the Lending Parties, on the other. Borrower agrees that neither it nor Sponsor nor any of their respective affiliates shall make, and hereby waives, any claim against the Lending Parties based on an assertion that any Lending Party has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to Borrower, Sponsor or their respective affiliates, stockholders, employees or creditors. Nothing in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is intended to confer upon any other Person (including affiliates, stockholders, employees or creditors of Borrower and Sponsor) any rights or remedies by reason of any fiduciary or similar duty.
(c)    Borrower acknowledges that it has been advised that the Lending Parties are full service financial services firms engaged, either directly or through affiliates in various activities, including securities trading, investment banking and financial advisory, investment management, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities and financial planning and benefits counseling for both companies and individuals. In the ordinary course of these activities, the Lending Parties may make

150




or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and/or financial instruments (including loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and/or instruments. Such investment and other activities may involve securities and instruments of affiliates of Borrower, including Sponsor, as well as of other Persons that may (i) be involved in transactions arising from or relating to the Transaction, (ii) be customers or competitors of Borrower, Sponsor and/or their respective affiliates, or (iii) have other relationships with Borrower, Sponsor and/or their respective affiliates.

The Transaction may have a direct or indirect impact on the investments, securities or instruments referred to in this Section 9.26(c). Although the Lending Parties in the course of such other activities and relationships may acquire information about the Transaction or other Persons that may be the subject of the Transaction, the Lending Parties shall have no obligation to disclose such information, or the fact that the Lending Parties are in possession of such information, to Borrower, Sponsor or any of their respective affiliates or to use such information on behalf of Borrower, Sponsor or any of their respective affiliates.
(d)    Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Borrower has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Transaction and the process leading thereto.
Section 9.27    Confidentiality.
(a)    This Agreement and the Loan Documents and their respective terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and transactions and notices thereunder, are proprietary to Administrative Agent and shall be held by Borrower in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the consent of Administrative Agent except for (i) disclosure to Borrower’s Affiliates, directors, attorneys, agents or accountants, provided that such attorneys or accountants likewise agree to be bound by this covenant of confidentiality, or are otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions or (ii) upon prior written notice to Administrative Agent to the extent permitted under applicable law, disclosure required by applicable law, rule, regulation or order of a Governmental Authority, court or other regulatory body or (iii) when circumstances reasonably permit, any disclosures or filing required under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or state securities’ laws; provided that in the case of disclosure by any party pursuant to the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii), Borrower shall take reasonable actions to provide Administrative Agent with prior written notice; provided further that in the case of (iii) Borrower shall not file any of the Loan Documents other than this Agreement with the SEC or state securities office unless Borrower shall have provided reasonable prior written notice of such filing to Administrative Agent and reasonable prior opportunity to review such filing. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party (and each employee, representative, or other agent of each party) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. For this purpose, tax treatment and tax structure shall not include (i) the identity of any existing or future party (or any Affiliate of such party) to this Agreement or (ii) any specific pricing information or other commercial terms, including the amount of any fees, expenses, rates or payments arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Additionally, to the extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, Administrative Agent may, at its option and from time to time, utilize any other method of establishing the Maximum Legal Rate under such Chapter 303 or under other applicable law by giving notice, if required, to Borrower as provided by applicable law now or hereafter in effect.
(c)    Non‑Application of Chapter 346 of Texas Finance Code. The provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code are specifically declared by the parties hereto not to be applicable to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or to the transactions contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE X    ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
Section 10.1    Authorization and Action.
(a)    Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf (including execution of the other Loan Documents) and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article X are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and, except for any approvals or rights to receive notices specifically set forth in this Article X, Borrower shall not have any rights as a third-party beneficiary or otherwise under any of the other provisions of this Article X. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary rights or powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise, including as directed by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in this Agreement); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion

157




or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law, and (iii) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Relevant Party or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Lenders or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in this Agreement).
(b)    The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken, nor any determination, decision or consent made or granted by it, in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  In addition, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable in any circumstance for any action taken or not taken, nor any determination, decision or consent made or granted by it, in each case with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.4). Wherever this Agreement or any Loan Document provides that the Administrative Agent may make any determination or decision or grant any consent, the Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, seek direction from the Majority Lenders with respect thereto and, in either case, the Administrative Agent shall be fully protected in exercising its good faith discretion in taking any such action or exercising any discretion unless it has sought directions from the Lenders with respect to the applicable matter and has been expressly instructed otherwise by the Majority Lenders with respect to the applicable matter.
(c)    The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Administrative Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender. The Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on the Loan (or any portion thereof) after the date such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that the extensions of credit made hereunder are commercial loans and not investments in a business enterprise or securities.
(d)    Each Lender, by signing this Agreement or an Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable, (i) represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold its portion of the Loan hereunder and (ii) expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Relevant Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder and in deciding whether or to the extent to which it will continue as a lender or assign or otherwise transfer its rights, interests and obligations hereunder.

158




Section 10.2    Administrative Agent’s Reliance.
(a)    The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by a Relevant Party, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of the Loan or any portion of the Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes unless the Loan or any portion of the Loan, shall have been transferred in accordance with this Agreement and all actions required by such Section in connection with such transfer shall have been taken. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any act or omission of any Servicing Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
(b)    The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it and through its Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facility provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
Section 10.3    Collateral Matters.
(a)    The Administrative Agent is a “representative” of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the UCC. Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into each of the Collateral Documents and the other Loan Documents and to take all action contemplated by such documents. Each Lender agrees that no Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of the Collateral Documents. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Lenders any Collateral Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties. The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by Agent upon any Collateral (i) as described in Section 9.4; (ii) as permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document or Collateral Document; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Majority Lenders, unless such release is required to be approved by all of the Lenders hereunder. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the

159




Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant hereto. Upon any sale or transfer of assets constituting Collateral which is permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or consented to in writing by the Majority Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of Borrower or any Relevant Party in respect of) all interests retained by Borrower or any of its Affiliates, including (without limitation) the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.
(b)    In case of the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding or any other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower or any Relevant Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loan, and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereunder) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and (ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and, in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b) of this paragraph, any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent (or if the Administrative Agent so directs, to the Paying Agent) and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent hereunder.
(c)    The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the right to credit bid and purchase for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted by the Administrative Agent under the provisions of the UCC, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the UCC, at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including Section 363 thereof, or a sale under a plan of reorganization, or at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law. Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders, it will not take any enforcement action, accelerate obligations under any Loan Documents, or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under applicable law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar dispositions of the Collateral.
Section 10.4    Administrative Agent and Affiliates.

160




To the extent the Person acting as Administrative Agent of any Affiliate thereof is also a Lender, such Person, in its individual capacity, shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender or holder of a Note or participation interest and may exercise the same as though it was not performing the duties specified herein. The Administrative Agent and/or its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with Borrower or any Relevant Party or any of their respective Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from Borrower and any Relevant Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.
Section 10.5    Resignation.
The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders and Borrower. Any successor Administrative Agent shall be appointed by the Majority Lenders subject to providing notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and Borrower; provided that if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, the Majority Lenders shall obtain the prior written consent of Borrower to such successor. Upon such appointment such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and such former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. If no successor Administrative Agent has accepted appointment by the date that is thirty (30) days following the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or for other appropriate relief. The reasonable documented costs and expenses (including its reasonable attorneys’ fees of external counsel and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by Borrower. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent.
