Management of Property (a) Borrower shall manage the Property or cause the Property to be managed in a manner which is consistent with the Approved Manager Standard. All Space Leases shall provide for rental rates comparable to then existing local market rates and terms and conditions which constitute good and prudent business practice and are consistent with prevailing market terms and conditions, and shall be arms-length transactions. All Space Leases entered into after the date hereof shall provide that they are subordinate to this Security Instrument and that the lessees thereunder attorn to Lender. Borrower shall deliver copies of all Leases, amendments, modifications and renewals thereof to Lender. All proposed Leases for the Property shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided, however that Borrower may enter into new leases with unrelated third parties without obtaining the prior consent of Lender provided that: (i) the proposed leases conform with the requirements of this Section 7.02; (ii) the proposed Space Lease is not a Major Space Lease and the space to be leased pursuant to such proposed lease together with any space leased or to be leased to an Affiliate of the tenant thereunder does not exceed 10,000 square feet; and (iii) the term of the proposed lease inclusive of all extensions and renewals, does not exceed ten (10) years.
(b) Borrower (i) shall or shall cause Operating Tenant to observe and perform all of its material obligations under the Leases pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements and shall not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of the Major Space Leases as security for the Debt; (ii) shall promptly send copies to Lender of all notices of default which Borrower shall receive under the Major Space Leases; (iii) shall, consistent with the Approved Manager Standard, enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases to be observed or performed; (iv) shall not collect any of the Rents under the Major Space Leases more than one (1) month in advance (except that Borrower may collect in advance such security deposits as are permitted pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements and are commercially reasonable in the prevailing market); (v) shall not execute any other assignment of lessor’s interest in the Leases or the Rents except as otherwise expressly permitted pursuant to this Security Instrument; (vi) shall not cancel or terminate any of the Leases or accept a surrender thereof in any manner inconsistent with the Approved Manager Standard; (vii) shall not convey, transfer or suffer or permit a conveyance or transfer of all or any part of the Premises or the Improvements or of any interest therein so as to effect a merger of the estates and rights of, or a termination or diminution of the obligations of, lessees thereunder; (viii) shall not alter, modify or change the terms of any guaranty of any Major Space Lease or cancel or terminate any such guaranty in a manner inconsistent with the Approved Manager Standard; (ix) shall, in accordance with the Approved Manager Standard, make all reasonable efforts to seek lessees for space as it becomes vacant and enter into Leases in accordance with the terms hereof; (x) shall not cancel or terminate or materially modify, alter or amend any Major Space Lease or Property Agreement without Lender’s consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and (xi) shall, without limitation to any other provision hereof, execute and deliver at the request of Lender all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Property as are required herein and as Lender shall from time to time reasonably require.
(c) All security deposits shall be held in accordance with all Legal Requirements. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Borrower shall, upon Lender’s request, if permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, turn over the security deposits (and any interest thereon) to Lender to be held by Lender in accordance with the terms of the Leases and all Legal Requirements.
(d) If requested by Lender, Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause the applicable lessee to furnish, to Lender financial data and/or financial statements in accordance with Regulation AB for any lessee of the Property if, in connection with a Securitization, Lender expects there to be, with respect to such lessee or any group of affiliated lessees, a concentration within all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in such Securitization such that such lessee or group of affiliated lessees would constitute a Significant Obligor; provided, however, that in the event the related Space Lease does not require the related lessee to provide the foregoing information, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable lessee to furnish such information.
(e) Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that (i) the Property will be managed at all times by an Approved Manager pursuant to the management agreement approved by Lender (the “Management Agreement”), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (ii) after Borrower has knowledge of a fifty percent (50%) or more change in control of the ownership of Manager, Borrower will promptly give Lender notice thereof (a “Manager Control Notice”) and (iii) the Management Agreement may be terminated by Lender at any time (A) for cause to the extent provided in the Management Agreement (including, but not limited to, Manager’s gross negligence, misappropriation of funds, willful misconduct or fraud) following the occurrence of an Event of Default of the type set forth in Section 13.01(a) through (c), or (B) to the extent provided in the Management Agreement, following the receipt of a Manager Control Notice and a substitute Approved Manager shall be appointed by Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, transfers of publicly traded stock of Manager on a national stock exchange or on the NASDAQ Stock Market in the normal course of business and not in connection with a tender offer or sale of Manager or substantially all of the assets of Manager shall not require the giving of a Manager Control Notice. Borrower may from time to time appoint a successor manager to manage the Property, provided that any such successor manager shall be an Approved Manager. Borrower further covenants and agrees that Borrower shall require Manager (or any successor managers) to maintain at all times during the term of the Loan worker’s compensation insurance as required by Governmental Authorities.
(f) Borrower shall not enter into any new or replacement Franchise Agreement without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (provided that any Franchise Agreement which is on a form in all material respects (including, without limitation, all fees due thereunder) the same as the form of any Franchise Agreement which is contained in the uniform franchise offering circular for any Approved Franchisor shall be deemed an acceptable form), and shall (i) pay or shall cause to be paid all sums required to be paid by Borrower under any Franchise Agreement and Operating Lease, (ii) diligently perform and observe all of the material terms, covenants and conditions of any Franchise Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed and observed to the end that all things shall be done which are necessary to keep unimpaired the rights of Borrower under any Franchise Agreement and Operating Lease, (iii) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any notice to Borrower of any material default by Borrower in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of and Franchise Agreement or Operating Lease on the part of Borrower to be performed and observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice, and (iv) promptly deliver to Lender a copy of each financial statement, business plan, capital expenditures plan, report and estimate received by it under the Franchise Agreement or the Management Agreement or the Operating Lease. Borrower shall not, without the prior consent of the Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, surrender any Franchise Agreement or Operating Lease or terminate or cancel any Franchise Agreement or modify, change, supplement, alter or amend any Franchise Agreement or Operating Lease, in any material respect, either orally or in writing, and Borrower hereby assigns to Lender as further security for the payment of the Debt and for the performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Security Instrument, all the rights, privileges and prerogatives of Borrower to surrender any Franchise Agreement or Operating Lease or to terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend any Franchise Agreement or Operating Lease in any respect, and any such surrender of any Franchise Agreement or termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of any Franchise Agreement or Operating Lease without the prior consent of Lender shall be void and of no force and effect, provided, however, Borrower may terminate any Franchise Agreement if Borrower enters into a new Franchise Agreement with an Approved Franchisor pursuant to a Franchise Agreement which is reasonably acceptable to Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may renew or replace any Operating Lease, provided such renewal or replacement shall be upon the same terms and conditions as the Operating Lease being renewed or replaced, except rent payable thereunder may be adjusted to the extent necessary to comply with the then-current requirements of the Code for real estate investment trusts. If Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of any Franchise Agreement or Operating Lease on the part of Borrower to be performed or observed, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Security Instrument, and without waiving or releasing Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of any Franchise Agreement or Operating Lease on the part of Borrower to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Borrower, to the end that the rights of Borrower in, to and under any Franchise Agreement and Operating Lease shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. Lender and any Person designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time for the purpose of taking any such action. If the franchisor under any Franchise Agreement or lessee under an Operating Lease shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice sent to Borrower of default under any Franchise Agreement or Operating Lease, as applicable, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action to be taken by Lender in good faith, in reliance thereon. Borrower shall, from time to time, use its best efforts to obtain from the franchisor or lessee under any Franchise Agreement such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Borrower with the terms of any Franchise Agreement as may be requested by Lender. Borrower shall exercise each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of any Franchise Agreement within four (4) months of the last day upon which any such option may be exercised, unless Lender consents to the non-renewal of such Franchise Agreement in writing, and Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact to exercise any such option in the name of and upon behalf of Borrower, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest, provided, however, that Lender shall not exercise such power of attorney unless and until Borrower fails to take the actions required herein.
Operation of Property (a) Borrower shall not cause or permit Mortgage Borrower to, without Lender’s prior consent: (i) surrender, terminate or cancel (or permit to be surrendered, terminated or canceled) any of the Operating Leases (other than in connection with a sale and release of an Individual Property permitted hereunder), or exercise any remedies under any of the Operating Leases; (ii) reduce or consent to the reduction of (or permit the reduction or the consent to the reduction) of the term of any of the Operating Leases or any Operating Lease Guaranty; (iii) decrease or consent to any decrease (or permit to be decreased or the consent to the decrease) of the amount of any rent or other charges payable under any of the Operating Leases; (iv) Transfer, convey, assign, sell, mortgage, encumber, pledge, hypothecate, grant a security interest in, grant an option or options with respect to, or otherwise dispose of (directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, whether or not for consideration) the Properties or any collateral for the Mortgage Loan (or permit Operating Company to do so), in each case without the prior written consent of Lender or except as expressly permitted in Section 5.1.20 or Section 5.2.10, or (v) otherwise modify, change, supplement, alter or amend, or waive or release (or permit to be modified, changed, supplemented, altered, amended, waived or released) any of the rights and remedies of Borrower, Mortgage Borrower or any Operating Company under any of the Operating Leases in any material respect or any Operating Lease Guaranty (provided that Lender shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any modification, change, supplement, alteration, amendment, waiver or release of the Operating Lease as may be reasonably necessary to comply with the requirements of this Agreement or any other Loan Document).
(b) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall not exercise (and shall not cause or permit Mortgage Borrower to exercise) any rights, make any decisions, grant any approvals or otherwise take any action under any Operating Lease, Operating Lease Guaranty or any Management Agreement without, in each instance, the prior written consent of Lender, which consent may be withheld in Lender’s sole discretion.
