Partial Release After the First Open Defeasance Date and prior to the First Open Payment Date, and provided no Event of Default exists, Borrower may from time to time obtain a partial release (a “Partial Release”) from the lien of the Mortgage and the Loan Documents of up to two of the individual Mortgaged Properties listed on Schedule 2.17 hereto (each such individual Mortgaged Property to be released, a “Partial Release Property”), provided that all of the following conditions precedent have been satisfied with respect to any such Partial Release of any such Partial Release Property:
(a) No Partial Release of a Partial Release Property will be permitted until after the First Open Defeasance Date or if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. No Partial Release of the Partial Release Property will be permitted on or after the First Open Payment Date. No more than two Partial Release Properties may be released during the term of the Loan.
(b) No Partial Release of the Partial Release Parcel will be permitted unless Borrower establishes to Lender’s satisfaction that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the remainder of the Mortgaged Property (i.e., exclusive of any income from the Partial Release Property) is and shall continue to be equal to or greater than the greater of (i) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Mortgaged Property calculated immediately prior to the Partial Release (i.e., inclusive of the income from the Partial Release Property), and (ii) 1.30:1.00. If the foregoing condition would not be satisfied by defeasance of the Partial Defeasance Amount indicated in subparagraph (e) below, Borrower may by written notice to Lender given not less than ten (10) days prior to the Partial Defeasance increase the Partial Defeasance Amount to an amount which would result in the foregoing condition being satisfied upon completion of the Partial Defeasance of such larger Partial Defeasance Amount. No Partial Defeasance, nor any increase in any Partial Defeasance Amount under this paragraph (b) or paragraphs (c) below, shall affect the allocated loan amounts for the remaining Mortgaged Property as set forth on Schedule 2.17.
(c) No Partial Release of the Partial Release Parcel will be permitted unless Borrower establishes to Lender’s satisfaction that the value of the remainder of the Mortgaged Property (as determined by then-current Appraisals prepared by Appraisers approved by Lender, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by Borrower) is sufficient to satisfy a loan-to-value ratio (based on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to the Partial Release, less the allocated loan amount for the Partial Release Property) which is the lesser of (i) 75% and (ii) the loan-to-value ratio for the Mortgaged Property (inclusive of the Partial Release Property, and based on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to the Partial Release) calculated immediately prior to the Partial Release. If the foregoing condition would not be satisfied by defeasance of the Partial Defeasance Amount indicated in subparagraph (e) below, Borrower may by written notice to Lender given not less than ten (10) days prior to the Partial Defeasance increase the Partial Defeasance Amount to an amount which would result in the foregoing condition being satisfied upon completion of the Partial Defeasance of such larger Partial Defeasance Amount.
(d) The Partial Release shall be allowed only in connection with a bona fide all-cash sale of the Partial Release Parcel to an unaffiliated third party on arms-length terms and conditions, and upon closing of such sale (and thereafter) shall not be owned, purchased or acquired by Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower.
(e) Borrower will on the date of the Partial Release (the “Partial Release Date”) complete a Partial Defeasance, pursuant to Section 2.7 hereof, of a portion of the Loan (the “Partial Defeasance Amount” for such Partial Release Property) equal to 125% of the allocated loan amount for the Partial Release Property set forth on Schedule 2.17 hereto; provided, that if Borrower elects in connection with a Partial Defeasance of a Partial Release Property to increase the Partial Defeasance Amount for such Partial Release Property pursuant to the provisions of paragraphs (b) and/or (c) above, the Partial Defeasance Amount for such Partial Release Property shall be such higher amount for purposes of such Partial Defeasance.
(f) Borrower will execute (and Guarantor will consent in writing thereto and reaffirm their obligations under the Loan Documents to which they are a party notwithstanding the Partial Release) and deliver all such amendments to the Loan Documents and other instruments or documents as may be required by Lender (using commercial standards customarily applied with respect to mortgage loans such as the Loan) in order to continue to fully protect Lender’s lien and security interest in the remainder of the Mortgaged Property.
(g) Borrower will cause the Master Homesite Lease(s) to be amended to exclude the Partial Release Property pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to Lender.
(h) Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, shall obtain endorsements to Lender’s loan policy of title insurance satisfactory in form and content to Lender, which endorsements will (a) affirmatively evidence the continued validity of Lender’s first lien position created by the Loan Documents through the date of recordation of the partial release of the Partial Release Property, and (b) insure that the lien created by the Loan Documents remains a valid first lien on the remainder of the Mortgaged Property.
(i) Borrower shall pay for the costs of preparing and recording partial releases, UCC-3 releases, and any loan modification documents, easements, declarations, and/or restrictive covenants required by Lender, Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, all survey charges and costs, all title premiums and costs, documentary stamps incurred in connection with the release of the Partial Release Property in accordance with the requirements contained herein, and all other reasonable out-of-pocket costs, fees, and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the requested release of the Partial Release Property.
(j) Borrower shall have provided Lender with a Rating Confirmation with respect to the Partial Release.
(k) Borrower shall pay Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the Partial Release, as set forth below. Borrower shall pay or reimburse Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such request for a Partial Release, including, but not limited to, the preparation, negotiation and review of any and all materials required to be provided in connection therewith (including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses).
Partial Releases (a) At any time prior to the Maturity Date, Administrative Agent shall, at the Borrower's request, issue partial releases from the Lien of a Mortgage and other Security Documents of Land Held for Development, Lots Under Development, one or more Housing Units, one or more Finished Lots or other Collateral; provided, however, that prior to or simultaneously with each such partial release all of the following conditions shall be satisfied:
(i) the sales price for any sale, transfer or conveyance must be at the Fair Market Value for such Collateral;
(ii) [intentionally omitted];
(iii) if Collateral constituting more than 10% of the Borrowing Base in the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently delivered is to be released from the Mortgages in any month, Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Base Certificate demonstrating on a pro forma basis, and the Administrative Agent shall have determined to its reasonable satisfaction, that the outstanding principal balance of the Loans together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities will not exceed the Maximum Loan Availability after giving effect to such request and any Release Consideration to be paid and/or the acceptance of any Property as an additional or replacement Borrowing Base Property to be given concurrently with such request;
(iv) the Borrower requests in writing to the Administrative Agent a payoff letter for the Collateral it seeks to release from the Mortgage not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the date such payoff is needed, together with all data reasonably necessary to support the Borrower’s being entitled to the partial release, including, without limitation, a legal description for the Collateral to be released and a partial release document prepared by the Borrower, all at the Borrower’s expense and all in form and content satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;
(v) the Borrower shall submit to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after the closing of the sale, a photocopy of the final signed closing statement with respect to the sale of such Collateral, it being understood that the Borrower’s failure to submit a closing statement within such time period shall not constitute a Default hereunder;
(vi) the Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any partial release of the Mortgage;
(vii) the Borrower pays, or causes to be paid, to the Administrative Agent the Release Consideration for any Collateral to be released from the Mortgages under this Section 4.2(a), which Release Consideration shall be applied to payment of any outstanding Revolving Loans hereunder, and to the extent no Revolving Loans are outstanding or if following payment of outstanding Revolving Loans additional funds remain, such Release Consideration shall be returned to the Borrower within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such proceeds by the Administrative Agent; and
(viii) no monetary Default, material non-monetary Default or Event of Default exists. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.2(a)(viii), during the existence of an Event of Default, provided that (i) the conditions set forth in Sections 4.2(a)(i) through (a)(vi) are satisfied, and (ii) Borrower pays, or causes to be paid, to the Administrative Agent the Release Consideration required to be paid under Section 4.2(a)(vii) (which the parties agree shall be applied in accordance with Section 11.5), then the Administrative Agent shall issue partial releases from the Lien of a Mortgage and other Security Documents for (y) the sale, transfer or conveyance by the Borrower of any Presold Housing Unit, Lots Under Development, Finished Lots or Land Held for Development pursuant to a valid, bona-fide agreement between the Borrower and a third party entered into prior to the occurrence of the applicable Event of Default, or (z) the sale, transfer or conveyance by the Borrower of any other Housing Unit, Lots Under Development, Finished Lots or Land Held for Development with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.
(i) With respect to any Collateral other than Housing Units, upon five (5) Business Days prior written request by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will execute all partial release documents for such Collateral other than Housing Units released from Mortgages, and (ii) with respect to any Housing Units, once per month, the Administrative Agent will execute all partial release documents for such Housing Units released from Mortgages during the preceding month, which partial release documents will be executed on the forms of release previously prepared and forwarded by the Borrower as set forth above or on such other release documentation in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and customarily used in the applicable jurisdiction.
(c) Upon request by the Borrower and without payment of any release price or Release Consideration, or other amount, the Administrative Agent shall also release land from the Lien of the Mortgages and other Security Documents or subordinate such Liens, all as necessary to effect necessary dedications of roadways or utility and service areas to Governmental Authorities or utility companies, to convey common areas to homeowners or condominium associations, and to allow the recordation of plats, easements and declarations to the extent such are common or reasonably necessary for the development of Collateral for residential purposes, and Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such release. Releases of Collateral from the Mortgages and other Security Documents shall not affect or impair the Lien of the Mortgages and the Administrative Agent’s Lien and security interests created by the other Loan Documents as to the Collateral and other property encumbered by the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents not theretofore released, and said Liens and security interests shall continue in full force and effect as to the Collateral and such other property not released. Except as set forth in this Section 4.2, no Collateral shall be released from the Lien of a Mortgage applicable thereto. Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to release Collateral in accordance with this Section 4.2.
Pre-Release Subject to the further terms and provisions of this Section 2.10, the Depositary, its Affiliates and their agents, on their own behalf, may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company and its Affiliates and in ADSs. In its capacity as Depositary, the Depositary may (i) issue ADSs prior to the receipt of Shares (each such transaction a "Pre-Release Transaction") as provided below and (ii) Deliver Shares upon the receipt and cancellation of ADSs that were issued in a Pre-Release Transaction, but for which Shares may not yet have been received. The Depositary may receive ADSs in lieu of Shares under (i) above and receive Shares in lieu of ADSs under (ii) above. Each such Pre-Release Transaction will be (a) subject to a written agreement whereby the person or entity (the "Applicant") to whom ADSs or Shares are to be Delivered (1) represents that at the time of the Pre-Release Transaction the Applicant or its customer owns the Shares or ADSs that are to be Delivered by the Applicant under such Pre-Release Transaction, (2) agrees to indicate the Depositary as owner of such Shares or ADSs in its records and to hold such Shares or ADSs in trust for the Depositary until such Shares or ADSs are Delivered to the Depositary or the Custodian, (3) unconditionally guarantees to deliver to the Depositary or the Custodian, as applicable, such Shares or ADSs, and (4) agrees to any additional restrictions or requirements that the Depositary deems appropriate, (b) at all times fully collateralized with cash, United States government securities or such other collateral as the Depositary deems appropriate, (c) terminable by the Depositary on not more than five (5) Business Days' notice and (d) subject to such further indemnities and credit regulations as the Depositary deems appropriate. The Depositary will normally limit the number of ADSs and Shares involved in such Pre-Release Transactions at any one time to thirty percent (30%) of the ADSs outstanding (without giving effect to ADSs outstanding under (i) above), provided, however, that the Depositary reserves the right to disregard such limit from time to time as it deems appropriate. The Depositary may also set limits with respect to the number of ADSs and Shares involved in Pre-Release Transactions with any one person on a case by case basis as it deems appropriate. The Depositary may retain for its own account any compensation received by it in conjunction with the foregoing. Collateral provided pursuant to (b) above, but not the earnings thereon, shall be held for the benefit of the Holders (other than the Applicant).
Mortgage Releases The terms of the related Mortgage or related Mortgage Loan documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial defeasance (as described in paragraph 34) of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property, (b) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance (defined in paragraph 34 below), (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation. With respect to any partial release under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) and (ii) would not cause the subject Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the Mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions. In the case of any Mortgage Loan, in the event of a taking of any portion of a Mortgaged Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, unless an opinion of counsel is delivered as specified in clause (y) of the preceding paragraph, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, the award from any such taking may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans). No such Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross-collateralized with another Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties or a portion thereof, including due to a partial condemnation, other than in compliance with the REMIC Provisions.
Timing of Release of Claims Whenever in this Agreement a payment or benefit is conditioned on the Executive’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, such as the separation agreement referenced in Section 11(a) hereof, such release must be executed and all revocation periods shall have expired within 60 days after the Date of Termination; failing which such payment or benefit shall be forfeited. If such payment or benefit constitutes Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation, then, subject to subsection (c) above, such payment or benefit (including any installment payments) that would have otherwise been payable during such 60-day period shall be accumulated and paid on the 60th day after the Date of Termination provided such release shall have been executed and such revocation periods shall have expired. If such payment or benefit is exempt from Section 409A of the Code, the Company may elect to make or commence payment at any time during such 60-day period.
Waiver and Release of Claims In consideration of, and subject to, the payment to be made to me by ____________ (the “Employer”) of the "Severance Payment" and the “Prorated Target Bonus Amount” (in each case as defined in the Severance Agreement, dated as of _________, entered into between me and the Company (the "Agreement")), I hereby waive any claims I may have for employment or re-employment by the Employer or any parent or subsidiary of the Employer after the date hereof, and I further agree to and do release and forever discharge the Employer and any parent or subsidiary of the Employer, and their respective past and present officers, directors, shareholders, insurers, employees and agents from any and all claims and causes of action, known or unknown, arising out of or relating to my employment with the Employer or any parent or subsidiary of the Employer, or the termination thereof, including, but not limited to, wrongful discharge, breach of contract, tort, fraud, the Civil Rights Acts, Age Discrimination in Employment Act as amended by the Older Workers’ Benefits Protection Act, Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, Americans with Disabilities Act, or any other federal, state or local legislation or common law relating to employment or discrimination in employment or otherwise; provided however, that no claim that I may have against the Employer in any capacity other than as an Employer shall be waived pursuant to this Waiver and Release. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision hereof, nothing in this Waiver and Release of Claims shall adversely affect (i) my rights to ongoing Severance Benefits under the terms of the Agreement; (ii) my rights to benefits (other than severance payments or benefits) under plans, programs and arrangements of the Employer or any parent or subsidiary of the Employer; (iii) my rights to indemnification under any indemnification agreement, applicable law or the certificates of incorporation or bylaws of the Employer or any parent or subsidiary of the Employer, (iv) my rights under any director's and officers' liability insurance policy covering me, (v) my workers compensation rights, or (vi) my unemployment insurance rights. I acknowledge that I have signed this Waiver and Release of Claims voluntarily, knowingly, of my own free will and without reservation or duress, and that no promises or representations have been made to me by any person to induce me to do so other than the promise of payment set forth in the first paragraph above and the Employer’s acknowledgment of my rights reserved under the second paragraph above. I understand that this release will be deemed to be an application for benefits under the Agreement and that my entitlement thereto shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Agreement and any applicable plan. I expressly hereby consent to such terms and conditions. I acknowledge that (i) I am waiving any rights or claims I might have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (“ADEA”); (ii) I have received consideration beyond that to which I was previously entitled; (iii) I have been given forty-five (45) days to review and consider this Waiver and Release of Claims (unless I have signed a written waiver of such review and consideration period); (iv) I have had the opportunity to consult with an attorney or other advisor of my choice and have been advised by the Company to do so if I choose; and (vi) I have been separately furnished a written schedule of all persons, listed by job title and age, within the affected decisional unit who were selected and not selected for the benefits extended by this Agreement, as may be required by the ADEA. I may revoke this Waiver and Release of Claims seven days or less after its execution by providing written notice to the Employer. I acknowledge that it is my intention and the intention of the Employer in executing this Waiver and Release of Claims that the same shall be effective as a bar to each and every claim, demand and cause of action hereinabove specified. In furtherance of this intention, I hereby expressly waive any and all rights and benefits conferred upon me by the provisions of SECTION 1542 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, to the extent applicable to me, and expressly I consent that this Waiver and Release of Claims shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including as well those related to unknown and unsuspected claims, demands and causes of action, if any, as well as those relating to any other claims, demands and causes of action hereinabove specified. SECTION 1542 provides: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR." I acknowledge that I may hereafter discover claims or facts in addition to or different from those which I now know or believe to exist with respect to the subject matter of this Waiver and Release of Claims and which, if known or suspected at the time of executing this Waiver and Release of Claims, may have materially affected this settlement. Finally, I acknowledge that I have read this Waiver and Release of Claims and understand all of its terms. ____________ (the “Old Employer”) and ______________ (the “Executive”) have entered into a Severance Agreement dated ______________ (the “Agreement”). The Executive is transferring employment from the Old Employer to ____________ (the “New Employer”), effective ________. The fourth bullet of the Agreement provides that, if the Executive transfers to the Company or an Affiliate, the Old Employer shall assign the Agreement to the Company or Affiliate.
