Initial Loan Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Lender shall have no obligation to make the initial Loan or issue the initial Letter of Credit under this Agreement unless Lender shall have first received: (a) this Agreement and the Note, each duly executed by Borrower; (b) the Guaranty, duly executed by Laclede Energy; (c) a copy of resolutions (including an incumbency certificate) of the Board of Directors of Borrower, duly adopted, which authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Note and the other Transaction Documents, certified by the Secretary of Borrower; (d) a copy of resolutions of the Board of Directors (including an incumbency certificate) of Laclede Energy, duly adopted, which authorize the execution, delivery and performance of its Guaranty, certified by the Secretary of Laclede Energy; (e) copies of the Articles of Incorporation of Borrower and Laclede Energy, including any amendments thereto, certified by the Secretary of State of the states of their respective incorporations; (f) copies of the Bylaws of Borrower and Laclede Energy, including any amendments thereto, certified by the Secretaries of Borrower and Laclede Energy; (g) certificates of corporate good standing of Borrower and Laclede Energy issued by the Secretary of State of the states of their respective incorporations; (h) an opinion of the General Counsel of Borrower and Laclede Energy, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and Lender’s counsel; (i) UCC search results from the Missouri Secretary of State for Borrower and Laclede Energy; (j) copies of all financial statements and other exhibits and schedules required by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; (k) a letter of direction from Borrower with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the initial Loan under this Agreement; (l) a fee letter, duly executed by Borrower and Lender; and (m) such other agreements, documents, instruments and certificates as Lender may reasonably request.
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).
Bridge Loan (a) If the Bridge Loan (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) has not been repaid in full on or prior to the one (1) year anniversary of the date of this Agreement (the “Repayment Option Date”), then, on the Repayment Option Date (or the first Business Day thereafter to the extent the Repayment Option Date does not fall on a Business Day), and not thereafter, Dynegy may, or may cause any of its Controlled Affiliates to, contribute to the Company an amount up to the Option Bridge Loan Amount, in exchange for Units at the price per Unit as of the date of this Agreement (such transaction, the “Dynegy Repayment Option”), and the Company shall use the proceeds from such contribution to partially repay the Bridge Loan. (b) If the Bridge Loan (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) has not been repaid in full and Dynegy does not exercise the Dynegy Repayment Option in full on the Repayment Option Date (or the first Business Day thereafter to the extent the Repayment Option Date does not fall on a Business Day), at any time after the Repayment Option Date, ECP may, or may cause the lender under the Bridge Loan to, convert all or any portion of the then Outstanding Bridge Loan Amount (all or such portion thereof, the “Conversion Amount”) into the number of Units equal to the quotient of (i) the product of (A) the Conversion Amount, multiplied by (B) the Conversion Multiple, divided by (ii) the price per Unit as of the date of this Agreement, and such Conversion Amount shall be deemed repaid in accordance with the terms of the Bridge Loan Agreement. (c) If Dynegy exercises the Dynegy Repayment Option in full, on the Repayment Option Date, ECP shall, or shall cause the lender under the Bridge Loan to, convert the remaining Outstanding Bridge Loan Amount into Units at the price per Unit as of the date of this Agreement, and such converted amount shall be deemed repaid in accordance with the terms of the Bridge Loan Agreement. (d) None of the terms or procedures set forth in Section 4.02 shall apply to this Section 4.11. The Board shall take all necessary action to effectuate the provisions of this Section 4.11, including authorizing and issuing the Units in respect of any Conversion Amount or in respect of a conversion pursuant to Section 4.11(a) or Section 4.11(c). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.06(c), no vote of the Board shall be required to effectuate the issuance of any Units pursuant to this Section 4.11.
Business Loan The Loan is a business loan transaction in the stated amount solely for the purpose of carrying on the business of Borrower and none of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the personal, family or agricultural purposes of the Borrower.
Whole Loan Each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a mortgage loan.
