Investments, Loans and Advances Purchase, hold or acquire any Equity Interests, evidences of indebtedness or other securities of, make or permit to exist any loans or advances to, or make or permit to exist any investment or any other interest in, any other Person, except:
(a) (i) investments by the Borrower and the Subsidiaries existing on the date hereof in the Equity Interests of the Subsidiaries, and (ii) additional investments by the Borrower and the Subsidiaries in the Equity Interests of the Subsidiaries; provided that (A) any such Equity Interests held by a Loan Party shall be pledged pursuant to the Guarantee and Pledge Agreement (subject to the limitations and exceptions referred to therein) and (B) investments made after the Closing Date by Loan Parties in, and loans and advances made after the Closing Date by Loan Parties to, Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties (determined without regard to any write-downs or write-offs of such investments, loans and advances) shall only be permitted (x) pursuant to funding commitments in effect on, and disclosed to the Lender on or prior to, the Closing Date or (y) with the prior written consent of the Lender;
(b) investments in cash and Permitted Investments;
(c) loans or advances made by the Borrower to any Subsidiary and made by any Subsidiary to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary; provided that (i) any such loans and advances made to a Loan Party shall be unsecured, (ii) any such loans and advances made to any Loan Party shall be subordinated to the Obligations pursuant to an Affiliate Subordination Agreement and (iii) the amount of such loans and advances made by Loan Parties to Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties shall be subject to the limitation set forth in paragraph (a) above;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall not be permitted to make any material investment in illiquid, complex structured products for which no external market price, liquid market quotes or price based on common agreed modeling is available except (i) pursuant to Investment Commitments in effect on the Closing Date and entered into in the ordinary course of business or (ii) with the prior written consent of the Lender.
Existing Loans Schedule 2.3(j) lists, as of the date hereof, all (i) secured loans encumbering the Properties or any direct or indirect interest in the applicable Contributed Entity and (ii) any other indebtedness of any Contributed Entity or subsidiary (collectively, the “Disclosed Loans”) and the outstanding aggregate principal balance as of the date set forth on Schedule 2.3(j). To the Knowledge of Contributor, no monetary default (beyond applicable notice and cure periods) by any party exists under any of the Disclosed Loans and the documents entered into in connection therewith (collectively, the “Disclosed Loan Documents”) and no non-monetary default (beyond applicable notice and cure periods) by any party exists under any of the Disclosed Loan Documents.
Existing Loan Seller represents and warrants to Buyer that the Existing Loan is the only indebtedness secured by the Property and that the information contained on Exhibit H is true, correct and complete in all material respects. To Seller’s Knowledge, neither Seller nor any guarantor is in default or breach of any provisions of the documents evidencing the Existing Loan and, to Seller’s Knowledge, no event or circumstance has occurred or exists which but for the passage of time would be a default under the Existing Loan. At Closing, Buyer shall accept the conveyance of the Property subject to the Existing Loan, including, without limitation, all liens securing its payment. If this Contract is still pending, by no later than fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, Seller shall cause Existing Lender to deliver to Buyer (or for Seller to deliver to Buyer) a complete assumption and application, and thereafter Buyer shall, at its sole cost and expense, during the pendency of this Contract use diligent, commercially reasonable efforts, in cooperation with Seller, to facilitate Buyer’s assumption of the Existing Loan, including, without limitation, promptly furnishing and/or paying for all items required by the holder of the Existing Loan or its servicer to process Buyer’s application and pay all costs required by the holder of the Existing Loan or its servicer (such costs and all other costs and expenses of the holder of the Existing Loan or its servicer to consider, investigate, process, approve and document the transaction contemplated by this Contract, including all application, underwriting, legal, rating agency and assumption fees, being sometimes collectively referred to as the “Assumption Costs”); provided, however, in no event shall the Assumption Costs include any legal fees of Seller’s own counsel or legal fees of Existing Lender’s counsel necessitated by Seller’s negotiation of the Assumption Documents or necessitated by Seller’s pursuit of an exchange contemplated by Section 16.14 hereof. In addition, any assumption fee based solely on the amount of the Existing Loan need not be paid until Closing. Such efforts by Buyer shall include causing Buyer’s rights under this Contract to be assigned by no later than Closing to a single purpose entity or other special purpose entity as required by the holder of the Existing Loan or its servicer and causing an appropriate guarantor (“New Guarantor”) to become a guarantor of any non-recourse carveouts and environmental indemnitees of the Existing Loan in place and stead of the principals of Seller from and after the Closing Date. If the Assumption Documents require that Buyer or New Guarantor give representations or warranties to Existing Lender with respect to matters affecting the Property prior to Closing, Seller and such principals of Seller currently liable therefor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and New Guarantor from all claims from Existing Lender and all damages, costs and expenses owed to Existing Lender as a result of a breach thereof, provided that the representations and warranties so made are limited to reasonable matters affecting the Property prior to Closing. Except as expressly provided in this Section 4.4, Buyer, and not Seller, shall be responsible for all costs, fees and expenses incurred or payable as a result of the Assumption Costs and complying with the requirements of the Existing Loan for an assumption, and Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from all of said costs, fees and expenses. Buyer’s foregoing indemnity regarding the Assumption Costs shall survive Closing and any termination of this Contract. The liens, assignments and security interests of the Existing Loan shall each be Permitted Exceptions (as shall be the Assumption Document to be executed at Closing).
Revolving Loan Prepayments (i) In the event of the termination of all the Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms hereof, the Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all of its outstanding Revolving Borrowings and, at the Borrower’s option, either replace or backstop (on terms and conditions acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank) all outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i).
(ii) In the event of any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms hereof, then (x) at or prior to the effective date of such reduction, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders of the sum of the Revolving Exposures after giving effect thereto and (y) if the sum of the Revolving Exposures would exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments after giving effect to such reduction, then the Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, first, repay or prepay Revolving Borrowings and second, at the Borrower’s option, either replace or backstop (on terms and conditions acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank) outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i), in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.
(iii) In the event that at any time the sum of all Lenders’ Revolving Exposures exceeds the Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately first, repay or prepay Revolving Borrowings, and second, at the Borrower’s option, either replace or backstop (on terms and conditions acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank) outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i), in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.
(iv) In the event that the aggregate LC Exposure exceeds the LC Sublimit then in effect, the Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately, at the Borrower’s option, either replace or backstop (on terms and conditions acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank) outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i), in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.
Mandatory Prepayments due to Borrowing Base Deficiency In the event that at any time any Borrowing Base Deficiency shall exist, the Borrower shall, within five Business Days after delivery of the applicable Borrowing Base Certificate, prepay the Loans (or provide Cash Collateral for Letters of Credit as contemplated by Section 2.05(k)) or reduce Other Covered Indebtedness in such amounts as shall be necessary so that such Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured; provided that, if the Borrower (x) chooses, by written notice to the Administrative Agent within such five (5) Business Day period, to make such repayment by means of a Capital Call (which notice shall include a certification by a Financial Officer that the uncalled capital commitments of the Borrower at such time, excluding uncalled capital commitments of Defaulted Investors, exceed the amount of such Borrowing Base Deficiency), the Borrower shall have thirty (30) Business Days to cure the Borrowing Base Deficiency (which 30-Business Day period shall include the five (5) Business Days permitted for delivery of such written notice to the Administrative Agent) and (y) makes the Capital Call to its Investors (as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement) within ten (10) Business Days of the date of notice to the Administrative Agent (and provides the Administrative Agent with written evidence of the Capital Call notice within two (2) Business Days of such notice being sent); and provided further that (i) the aggregate amount of such prepayment of Loans (and Cash Collateral for Letters of Credit) shall be at least equal to the Revolving Percentage times the aggregate prepayment of the Covered Debt Amount, and (ii) if, within five Business Days after delivery of a Borrowing Base Certificate demonstrating such Borrowing Base Deficiency, the Borrower shall present the Lenders with a reasonably feasible plan (other than the use of a Capital Call as described above) acceptable to the Required Lenders in their sole discretion to enable such Borrowing Base Deficiency to be cured within 30 Business Days (which 30-Business Day period shall include the five (5) Business Days permitted for delivery of such plan), then such prepayment or reduction shall not be required to be effected immediately but may be effected in accordance with such plan (with such modifications as the Borrower may reasonably determine), so long as such Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured within such 30-Business Day period.
Adjustments of Borrowings upon Effectiveness of Increase On the Commitment Increase Date, the Borrower shall (A) prepay the outstanding Loans (if any) of the affected Class in full, (B) simultaneously borrow new Loans of such Class hereunder in an amount equal to such prepayment; provided that with respect to subclauses (A) and (B), (x) the prepayment to, and borrowing from, any existing Lender shall be effected by book entry to the extent that any portion of the amount prepaid to such Lender will be subsequently borrowed from such Lender and (y) the existing Lenders, the Increasing Lenders and the Assuming Lenders shall make and receive payments among themselves, in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent, so that, after giving effect thereto, the Loans of such Class are held ratably by the Lenders of such Class in accordance with the respective Commitments of such Class of such Lenders (after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) and (C) pay to the Lenders of such Class the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.15 as a result of any such prepayment. Concurrently therewith, the Lenders of such Class shall be deemed to have adjusted their participation interests in any outstanding Letters of Credit of such Class so that such interests are held ratably in accordance with their commitments of such Class as so increased.
Payments Pursuant to Letters of Credit The Borrower agrees to reimburse immediately the Letter of Credit Issuer for any draw under any Letter of Credit and the Agent for the account of the Lenders upon any payment pursuant to any Credit Support, and to pay the Letter of Credit Issuer the amount of all other charges and fees payable to the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with any Letter of Credit immediately when due, irrespective of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against the Letter of Credit Issuer or any other Person. Each drawing under any Letter of Credit shall constitute a request by the Borrower to the Agent for a Borrowing of a Base Rate Revolving Loan in the amount of such drawing. The Funding Date with respect to such borrowing shall be the date of such drawing.
Term Loan Advances Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount outstanding for each Term Loan Advance shall accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to one percent (1.0%) above the Prime Rate, which interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with Section 2.3(d) below.
