With respect to any proposed amendment, modification or change to any Constituent Document, the Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of such proposal. Administrative Agent shall determine, in its sole reasonable discretion (that is, the determination of the other Lenders shall not be required) on Administrative Agent’s good faith belief, whether such proposed amendment, modification or change to such Constituent Document is a Material Amendment, and shall notify the Borrower of its determination within (a) for amendments, modifications or changes proposed prior to the Final Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Operating Agreement), two (2) Business Days, and (b) for amendments, modifications or changes proposed after the Final Closing Date, five (5) Business Days of the date on which it is deemed to have received such notification pursuant to Section 13.07.

If Administrative Agent determines that the proposed amendment is not a Material Amendment, the applicable Borrower Party may make such amendment without the consent of Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of Administrative Agent or the Lenders, a Borrower Party may amend its Constituent Documents: (i) to admit new Investors to the extent permitted by this Credit Agreement; (ii) to reflect transfers of interests permitted by this Credit Agreement; and (iii) to facilitate the formation, operation and qualification of such Borrower Party as a RIC.
Modifications of Organizational Documents The Parent and the Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any Loan Party or other Subsidiary to, amend, supplement, restate or otherwise modify its articles or certificate of incorporation, by-laws, operating agreement, declaration of trust, partnership agreement or other applicable organizational document if such amendment, supplement, restatement or other modification could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(iv) evidence, which may be in the form of a letter or other certification from the Title Company or from an insurance broker, surveyor, engineer or other provider, as to whether (1) such Real Property is a Flood Hazard Property, and (2) the community in which such Flood Hazard Property is located is participating in the National Flood Insurance Program, and if such Real Property is a Flood Hazard Property, evidence that the applicable Credit Party has obtained flood insurance in respect of such Flood Hazard Property to the extent required under the applicable regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System;
(v) a survey, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, of such Real Property, certified in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent by a licensed professional surveyor reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(vii) an opinion of local counsel admitted to practice in the jurisdiction in which such Real Property is located, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent, as to the validity and effectiveness of such Mortgage as a lien on such Real Property encumbered thereby, and covering such other matters of law in connection with the execution, delivery, recording and enforcement of such Mortgage as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request; and
(viii) upon request of the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have received appraisals, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, dated not more than 60 days prior to the date of execution of each Mortgage and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or accompanied by a separate letter indicating that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may rely thereon, from one or more nationally recognized appraisal firms, reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, covering (i) the Real Properties, and (ii) all other tangible property, plant and equipment owned by Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, that is to be subjected to the Lien of the Security Agreement and is located at any plant or facility owned or leased by Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in the United States of America, which appraisals shall set forth (A) the “fair market value” of such property (i.e., the amount at which such property would equitably exchange between a willing buyer and a willing seller, neither being under a compulsion and both having reasonable knowledge of all relevant facts on the premise that such property will continue in its present use as part of an ongoing business enterprise), (B) the “orderly disposal value” of such property (i.e., the amount that may be realized through a forced sale disposal of such property when a reasonable time to find a buyer is allowed), and (C) the “forced liquidation value” of such property (i.e., the amount that may be realized through an immediate forced sale disposal of such property), in each case as determined in accordance with sound appraisal standards.
