Obligations of Management Each officer and key employee of the Company is currently devoting substantially all of his or her business time to the conduct of the business of the Company. The Company is not aware that any officer or key employee of the Company is planning to work less than full time at the Company in the future. No officer or key employee is currently working or, to the Company’s knowledge, plans to work for a competitive enterprise, whether or not such officer or key employee is or will be compensated by such enterprise.
Assignment of Management Agreement As additional collateral security for the Loan, Borrower conditionally transfers, sets over, and assigns to Lender all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the Management Agreement and all extensions and renewals. This transfer and assignment will automatically become a present, unconditional assignment, at Lender’s option, upon a default by Borrower under the Note, the Loan Agreement, the Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents (each, an “Event of Default”), and the failure of Borrower to cure such Event of Default within any applicable grace period.
OBLIGATIONS OF MANAGER; RESTRICTIONS (a) The Manager shall require each seller or transferor of investment assets to the Company to make such representations and warranties regarding such assets as may, in the judgment of the Manager, be necessary and appropriate. In addition, the Manager shall take such other action as it deems necessary or appropriate with regard to the protection of the Investments. (b) The Manager shall refrain from any action that, in its sole judgment made in good faith, (i) is not in compliance with the Guidelines or (ii) would adversely affect the status of the Company as a real estate investment trust under the Code or that, in its sole judgment made in good faith, would violate any law, rule or regulation of any governmental body or agency having jurisdiction over the Company or any Subsidiary or that would otherwise not be permitted by such entity’s Governing Instruments. If the Manager is ordered to take any such action by the Board of Directors, the Manager shall promptly notify the Board of Directors of the Manager’s judgment that such action would adversely affect such status or violate any such law, rule or regulation or the Governing Instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager, its directors, officers, stockholders and employees shall not be liable to the Company or any Subsidiary, the Board of Directors, or the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s stockholders or partners for any act or omission by the Manager, its directors, officers, stockholders or employees except as provided in Section 11 of this Agreement. (c) The Manager shall not (i) consummate any transaction which would involve the acquisition by the Company of property in which the Manager or any affiliate thereof has an ownership interest or the sale by the Company of property to the Manager or any affiliate thereof, or (ii) under circumstances where the Manager is subject to an actual or potential conflict of interest because it manages both the Company and another Person (not an Affiliate of the Company) with which the Company has a contractual relationship, take any action constituting the granting to such Person of a waiver, forebearance or other relief, or the enforcement against such Person of remedies, under or with respect to the applicable contract, unless such transaction or action, as the case may be and in each case, is approved by a majority of the Independent Directors. (d) The Board of Directors periodically reviews the Guidelines and the Company’s portfolio of Investments. If a majority of the Independent Directors determine in their periodic review of transactions that a particular transaction does not comply with the Guidelines, then a majority of the Independent Directors will consider what corrective action, if any, can be taken. If the transaction involved the acquisition of an asset from the Manager or an affiliate of the Manager that was not approved in advance by a majority of the Independent Directors, then the Manager may be required to repurchase the asset at the purchase price (plus closing costs) to the Company. (e) The Manager shall at all times during the term of this Agreement (including the Initial Term and any renewal term) maintain a tangible net worth equal to or greater than $1,000,000. Additionally, during such period the Manager shall maintain “errors and omissions” insurance coverage and other insurance coverage which is customarily carried by property and asset and investment managers performing functions similar to those of the Manager under this Agreement with respect to assets similar to the assets of the Company, in an amount which is comparable to that customarily maintained by other managers or servicers of similar assets.
Replacement of Manager If at any time after any Action is brought the Manager settles the Action on a basis that results in the settlement of such Action against it and fewer than all the Underwriters (whether or not such settlement complies with Section 9.7 hereof), the Manager will, at such time, for purposes of Sections 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, and 9.7 hereof, cease to be the Manager. The non-settling Underwriters will, by vote of holders of a majority of the Underwriting Percentage of such non-settling Underwriters, select a new Manager, which will become the new “Manager” for all purposes of Sections 9.3, 9.4., 9.5, 9.6, and 9.7 hereof as well as this section; provided that the non-settling Underwriter(s) with the largest Underwriting Percentage will act as Manager until such vote occurs and a new Manager is selected. 4 Notwithstanding such a settlement, the Manager and the other settling Underwriters will remain obligated to the non-settling Underwriters to assist and cooperate fully, in good faith, and at their own expense, in the defense of any Actions, including, without limitation, by providing, upon reasonable request of any non-settling Underwriter, and without the necessity of court process, access to or copies of all relevant records, and reasonable access to all witnesses under control of the Manager or the other settling Underwriters, for the purpose of interviews, depositions, and testimony at trial, subject in each case to the applicable legal and procedural obligations of such Manager and such other settling Underwriter. In addition, if at any time, the Manager is unwilling or unable for any reason to assume or discharge its duties as Manager under the applicable AAU, whether resulting from its insolvency (voluntary or involuntary), resignation or otherwise, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the remaining Underwriters will, by vote of holders of a majority of the Underwriting Percentage of such Underwriters, be entitled to select a new Manager, which will become the new Manager for all purposes under this Agreement. 5 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Manager replaced pursuant to this Section 9.9 shall continue to benefit from and be subject to all other terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to an Underwriter.
FUNCTIONS OF MANAGEMENT 4.01 The Union agrees that the Employer has the exclusive right and power to manage its business to direct the working forces and to suspend, discharge or discipline employees for just and sufficient cause, to hire, promote, demote, transfer or lay-off employees, to establish and maintain reasonable rules and regulations covering the operation of the stores, provided however, that any exercise of these rights and powers in conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of the Grievance Procedure as set out herein. 4.02 It is agreed that the direction of the working force shall be at the discretion of the Employer within the terms of this Agreement.
Administration of the Mortgage Loans (a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans that it is obligated to service and administer pursuant to this Agreement on behalf of the Trustee, and in the best interests and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, in accordance with any and all applicable laws and the terms of this Agreement, the Insurance Policies and the respective Mortgage Loans and, to the extent consistent with the foregoing, in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Without limiting the foregoing, and subject to Section 3.21, (i) the Master Servicer shall service and administer all Mortgage Loans as to which no Servicing Transfer Event has occurred and all Corrected Mortgage Loans, and (ii) the Special Servicer shall service and administer (x) each Mortgage Loan (other than a Corrected Mortgage Loan) as to which a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred, and (y) each REO Property; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall continue to collect information and prepare all reports to the Trustee required hereunder with respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties (and the related REO Loans), and further to render such incidental services with respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for herein. (b) Subject to Section 3.01(a), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, in its own name, with respect to each of the Mortgage Loans it is obligated to service hereunder, is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee or any of them: (i) any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by any Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral; (ii) in accordance with the Servicing Standard and subject to Sections 3.08 and 3.20, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to or with respect to any documents contained in the related Mortgage File; and (iii) any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments. Subject to Section 3.10, the Trustee shall, at the written request of a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, furnish, or cause to be so furnished, to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as the case may be, any limited powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable them to carry out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be held liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer. (c) The relationship of each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer to the Trustee under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent. (d) In the event that any two or more Mortgage Loans are cross-collateralized with each other, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall service and administer such Mortgage Loans as a single Mortgage Loan as and when it deems necessary and appropriate, consistent with the Servicing Standard. If any Cross-Collateralized Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, then each other Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized with it shall also become a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan. Similarly, no Cross-Collateralized Mortgage Loan shall subsequently become a Corrected Mortgage Loan, unless and until all Servicing Transfer Events in respect of each other Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized with it, are remediated or otherwise addressed as contemplated in the definition of "Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan".
Management of REO Property (a) Prior to the acquisition by it of title to a Mortgaged Property (other than a Mortgaged Property that secures an Outside Serviced Loan Combination), the Special Servicer shall review the operation of such Mortgaged Property and determine the nature of the income that would be derived from such property if it were acquired by the Trust Fund. If the Special Servicer determines from such review that: (i) None of the income from Directly Operating such Mortgaged Property would be subject to tax as "net income from foreclosure property" within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions or would be subject to the tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section 860F of the Code (either such tax referred to herein as an "REO Tax"), then such Mortgaged Property may be Directly Operated by the Special Servicer as REO Property; (ii) Directly Operating such Mortgaged Property as REO Property could result in income from such property that would be subject to an REO Tax, but that a lease of such property to another party to operate such property, or the performance of some services by an Independent Contractor with respect to such property, or another method of operating such property would not result in income subject to an REO Tax, then the Special Servicer may (provided that in the good faith and reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, it is commercially reasonable) acquire such Mortgaged Property as REO Property and so lease or operate such REO Property; or (iii) It is reasonable to believe that Directly Operating such property as REO Property could result in income subject to an REO Tax and that no commercially reasonable means exists to operate such property as REO Property without the Trust Fund incurring or possibly incurring an REO Tax on income from such property, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Tax Administrator, in writing, a proposed plan (the "Proposed Plan") to manage such property as REO Property. Such plan shall include potential sources of income, and, to the extent reasonably possible, estimates of the amount of income from each such source. Upon request of the Special Servicer, the Tax Administrator shall advise the Special Servicer of the Tax Administrator's federal income tax reporting position with respect to the various sources of income that the Trust Fund would derive under the Proposed Plan. After receiving the information described in the preceding sentence from the Tax Administrator, the Special Servicer shall implement the Proposed Plan (after acquiring the respective Mortgaged Property as REO Property), with any amendments required to be made thereto as a result of the Tax Administrator's tax reporting position. The Special Servicer's decision as to how each Administered REO Property shall be managed and operated shall be based on the Servicing Standard and, further, based on the good faith and reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer as to which means would be in the best interest of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of any Administered REO Property related to a Serviced Loan Combination, the related Serviced Non-Trust Mortgage Loan Noteholder(s)), as a collective whole, by maximizing (to the extent commercially reasonable and consistent with Section 3.17(b)) the net after-tax REO Revenues received with respect to such property without materially impairing the Special Servicer's ability to promptly sell such property for a fair price. In connection with performing their respective duties under this Section 3.17(a), both the Special Servicer and the Tax Administrator may consult with counsel and tax accountants, the reasonable cost of which consultation shall be covered by, and be reimbursable as, a Servicing Advance to be made by the Special Servicer. (b) If title to any Administered REO Property is acquired, the Special Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate such REO Property for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of any Administered REO Property related to a Serviced Loan Combination, the related Serviced Non-Trust Mortgage Loan Noteholder(s)) solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner that does not and will not: (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code for purposes of Section 860D(a) of the Code; or (ii) except as contemplated by Section 3.17(a), either result in the receipt by any REMIC Pool of any "income from non-permitted assets" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or result in an Adverse REMIC Event or an Adverse Grantor Trust Event. Subject to the foregoing, however, the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority to do any and all things in connection therewith as are consistent with the Servicing Standard and, consistent therewith, shall withdraw from the related REO Account, to the extent of amounts on deposit therein with respect to any Administered REO Property, funds necessary for the proper operation, management, maintenance and disposition of such REO Property, including: (i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property; (ii) all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon; (iii) any ground rents in respect of such REO Property; and (iv) all costs and expenses necessary to maintain, lease, sell, protect, manage, operate and restore such REO Property. To the extent that amounts on deposit in the related REO Account in respect of any Administered REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in the preceding sentence with respect to such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall, at the direction of the Special Servicer, make Servicing Advances in such amounts as are necessary for such purposes unless the Master Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that such payment would be a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided, however, that the Master Servicer may make any such Servicing Advance without regard to recoverability if it is a necessary fee or expense incurred in connection with the defense or prosecution of legal proceedings. (c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not, with respect to any Administered REO Property: (i) enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to such Administered REO Property, if the New Lease, by its terms would give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property; (ii) permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property; (iii) authorize or permit any construction on such Administered REO Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than 10% of the construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default on the related Serviced Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or (iv) Directly Operate, or allow any other Person, other than an Independent Contractor, to Directly Operate such Administered REO Property on any date more than 90 days after the related REO Acquisition; unless, in any such case, the Special Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer, at the direction of the Special Servicer, and shall be reimbursable as a Servicing Advance) to the effect that such action would not cause such Administered REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code for purposes of Section 860D(a) of the Code at any time that it is held by a REMIC Pool, in which case the Special Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel. (d) The Special Servicer may contract with any Independent Contractor for the operation and management of any Administered REO Property; provided that: (i) the terms and conditions of any such contract shall not be inconsistent herewith and shall reflect an agreement reached at arm's length; (ii) the fees of such Independent Contractor (which shall be expenses of the Trust Fund and, in the case of any Administered REO Property that relates to a Serviced Loan Combination, the related Serviced Non-Trust Mortgage Loan Noteholder(s)) shall be reasonable and customary in consideration of the nature and locality of such Administered REO Property; (iii) except as permitted under Section 3.17(a), any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor, in a timely manner, (A) pay out of related REO Revenues all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such Administered REO Property, including those listed in Section 3.17(b) above, and (B) except to the extent that such revenues are derived from any services rendered by the Independent Contractor to tenants of such Administered REO Property that are not customarily furnished or rendered in connection with the rental of real property (within the meaning of Section 1.856-4(b)(5) of the Treasury regulations or any successor provision), remit all related revenues collected (net of its fees and such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer upon receipt; (iv) none of the provisions of this Section 3.17(d) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and obligations hereunder with respect to the operation and management of such Administered REO Property; and (v) the Special Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties and obligations in connection with the operation and management of such Administered REO Property. The Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations under Section 3.16 and this Section 3.17 for indemnification of the Special Servicer by any such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. No agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 3.17(d) shall be deemed a Sub-Servicing Agreement for purposes of Section 3.22. (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 3.17 shall not apply to any Outside Administered REO Property.
