Such Operating Budget may allow for a ten percent (10%) line item variance. Until so approved by Lender for the subsequent Fiscal Year in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 5.1(r)(ix) below, the Operating Budget approved by Lender for the preceding Fiscal Year shall remain in effect for purposes of Section 2.12; provided, that for so long as such prior Operating Budget remains in effect, amounts set forth in the prior Operating Budget with respect to Property Expenses shall be deemed increased with respect to actual increases in Basic Carrying Costs and non-discretionary utility expenditures and shall be deemed increased by three percent (3%) with regard to discretionary items. Promptly following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall submit or cause to be submitted to Lender a Working Capital Budget for the remainder of the Fiscal Year during which such Event of Default occurs and by not later than the end of each of Borrower’s Fiscal Years with respect to the subsequent Fiscal Year.

The Second Notice shall make reference to the First Notice and shall bear the following legend in capital letters: “LENDER’S FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST FOR APPROVAL WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS FOLLOWING RECEIPT SHALL BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE LENDER’S CONSENT TO THE OPERATING BUDGET DESCRIBED HEREIN.” If Lender does not approve or disapprove the proposed Operating Budget within ten (10) Business Days after Lender shall have received Borrower’s Second Notice, Lender shall be deemed to have approved the proposed Operating Budget.
