Real Estate Leases (a) Neither BGH Holdings nor BRH Holdings leases any real estate. Seller does not own or lease any real estate used in connection with the businesses of BGH Holdings, BRH Holdings, or the Companies.
(b) Schedule 4.16 sets forth a list of all of the leases or rights of occupancy pursuant to which the Companies (or any of them) lease or sublease any real property or interest therein (collectively, the "Leases"), including the identification of each of the Lessors thereof and the street addresses of the real estate demised under any of the Leases (collectively, the "Leased Real Estate"). Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, one or more of the Companies is the lessee under all Leases, and no party other than one or more of the Companies has any right to possession, occupancy or use of any of the Leased Real Estate. A true and correct copy of each of the Leases has been delivered to Buyer, together with all amendments and modifications thereto, and no changes, amendments or modifications have been made thereto since the date of such delivery, except as permitted by Section 3.02 (k). Each of the Leases is valid and is in full force and effect and is binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms except to the extent such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights or by general equitable principles. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, none of the Companies is in default (after expiration of applicable cure or grace periods) under any provision of any of the Leases, the failure of which to perform would permit the lessor thereunder to terminate such Lease, and, to Seller's knowledge, no event has occurred which (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) would render any of the Companies in default under any of such provisions which default would permit the lessor thereunder to terminate such Lease. To the knowledge of Seller, BRH Holdings, BGH Holdings, or the Companies, no other party to any of the Leases is in default under any of the material commitments and obligations thereof, and no event has occurred which (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) would render any such other party in default under any of such provisions.
(c) Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, the Companies are in actual possession of the Leased Real Estate. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, the Companies have good and valid title to all the leasehold estates conveyed under the Leases free and clear of all Liens except for (i) (A) those provided under the relevant lease; (B) matters shown on Schedule 4.16; and (C) defects of title, conditions, easements, covenants or restrictions, if any, none of which items referred to clauses (A), (B) or (C) above is substantial in amount, and none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially impairs or grants or evidences rights which, if exercised, would materially impair the current use of the affected property in the manner such property is currently being used by the Companies, or impairs the operations of any of the Companies; (ii) zoning or land use ordinances, none of which, to Seller's knowledge, individually or in the aggregate, materially impairs the use of the affected property in the manner such property is currently being used, or impairs the current operations of any of the Companies; and (iii) liens for taxes not yet due and payable (iv) any mortgage liens granted by any lessor under any of the Leases of the lessor's interest in the underlying real estate or the Leases. To Seller's knowledge, none of the Companies has received written notice of any violation of or non-conformity with any zoning, subdivision, wetlands or other similar law, code, rule, regulation or ordinance from any governmental authority with respect to any of the Leased Real Estate, or of any condemnation action, eminent domain proceeding or other litigation concerning any of such properties.
(d) Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, the basic rent, all additional rent and all other charges and amounts payable under the Leases have been paid to date and not more than one month in advance. All work required to be performed under the Leases by the landlords thereunder or by any of the Companies have been performed, and, to the extent that any of the Companies is responsible for payment of such work, has been fully paid for, whether directly to the contractor performing such work or to such landlord as reimbursement therefor, except for items which any of the Companies is disputing in good faith (which items are set forth in Schedule 4.16).
(e) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.16, there are no brokerage commissions or finder's fees due from Seller or any of the Companies which are unpaid with regard to any of the Leases or the Leased Real Estate or which will become due at any time in the future with regard to the Leases or the Leased Real Estate.
(f) Except as set forth in Schedule 4.16, there have been no casualties which are reasonably likely to result in the termination of any of the Leases or the exercise of any buy-out provision contained in any of the Leases relative to damage by casualty.
(g) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.16, (i) no consent of any of the lessors under any of the Leases is required by reason of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) none of the rights of any of the Companies under any of the Leases will be impaired by the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all of such rights will be enforceable by the Companies after the Closing Date without the consent or agreement of any other party, including all rights to purchase any of the Leased Real Estate or to renew any of the Leases pursuant to options to purchase or renew contained in any of the Leases. Any lessor under any of the Leases whose consent or agreement is required is identified as such on Schedule 4.16.
Real Estate Matters (a) Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, may order title policy Commitments (the “Commitments”) to be issued by a title company reasonably acceptable to Purchaser (the “Title Company”), accompanied by copies of all recorded documents relating to restrictions, easements, rights-of-way, and other matters affecting the Fee Owned Property or the leased Restaurant locations that are not located in lifestyle centers, office developments, condominium developments or major retail developments (the “Leased Locations”). The Commitments will commit the Title Company to issue at the Closing, ALTA form of Title Insurance Policies to Purchaser, such policies to be in an amount as determined jointly by Purchaser and the Title Company and with such endorsements as are requested by Purchaser. Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, may also obtain one of more surveys of the Fee Owned Property and the Leased Locations at Purchaser’s expense (the “Surveys”). Purchaser shall promptly, but not later than forty five (45) days following the date of this Agreement, notify the Seller in writing of objections to the condition of title set forth in the Commitments or on the Surveys which materially affect the merchantability of 1245 Properties’ title or the use of the Fee Owned Property or Seller’s use of the Leased Locations as presently utilized and do not constitute Permitted Liens (the “Title Objections”).
(b) Seller may voluntarily undertake to eliminate any and all of the Title Objections to the satisfaction of Purchaser, but the Seller is under no obligation to do so. If, however, the Seller elects not to, or cannot, eliminate the Title Objections to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser prior to the Closing Date and the Title Objections constitute a Material Adverse Effect, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement, within five (5) business days following Seller’s notice that it will not or cannot eliminate such Title Objections, pursuant to Section 9.3 hereof without further liability to Purchaser or Seller. If the Title Objections do not constitute a Material Adverse Effect, Purchaser’s obligation to close shall nevertheless remain subject to the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 including Section 8.1(g).
(c) All title matters shown on the Commitments and the Surveys which are not the subject of Title Objections shall be deemed to be Permitted Liens. Further, if Purchaser makes any Title Objections which Seller elects not to, or cannot, cure, and Purchaser elects to proceed to Closing on the Closing Date, such Title Objections shall likewise be deemed Permitted Liens.
Real Property Matters The Credit Parties shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent with respect to each parcel of Real Property to the extent that such parcel of Real Property becomes or should be subject to a Mortgage pursuant to Section 6.10(a) above, all of the following:
(i) an American Land Title Association (ALTA) mortgagee title insurance policy or policies, or unconditional commitments therefor (a “Title Policy”) issued by a title insurance company reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (a “Title Company”), in an amount not less than the amount reasonably required therefor by the Administrative Agent (taking into account the estimated value of the property involved), insuring fee simple title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, such Real Property vested in the applicable Credit Party and assuring the Administrative Agent that the applicable Mortgage creates a valid and enforceable first priority mortgage lien on the respective Real Property encumbered thereby, subject only to Permitted Liens, which Title Policy (1) shall include an endorsement for mechanics’ liens, for revolving, “variable rate” and future advances under this Agreement and for any other matters reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, and (2) shall provide for affirmative insurance and such reinsurance as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all of the foregoing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;
(ii) a title report issued by the Title Company with respect thereto, dated not more than 30 days prior to the date of execution of the applicable Mortgage and satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent;
(iii) copies of all recorded documents listed as exceptions to title or otherwise referred to in the Title Policy or in such title report relating to such Real Property;
(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;
(vi) a certificate of the Borrower identifying any Phase I, Phase II or other environmental report received in draft or final form by any Credit Party during the five year period prior to the date of execution of the Mortgage relating to such Real Property and/or the operations conducted therefrom, or stating that no such draft or final form reports have been requested or received by any Credit Party (or its counsel), together with true and correct copies of all such environmental reports so listed (in draft form, if not finalized); and all such environmental reports shall be satisfactory in form and substance 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.
Ground Leases For purposes of this Exhibit C, a “Ground Lease” shall mean a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner. With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a Ground Leasehold estate in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of Mortgage Loan Seller, its successors and assigns (collectively, the “Ground Lease and Related Documents”), Mortgage Loan Seller represents and warrants that:
Ground Lease (a) Ground Lessee and Borrower have executed this Instrument mortgaging their separate estates in the Property for the purpose of granting to the Lender such lien as would cause the fee simple title to the Property to be sold free and clear of the Ground Lease at foreclosure sale. Ground Lessee and Borrower hereby jointly and severally waive any right, arising at law or in equity, whether presently existing or subsequently accruing, whether to Ground Lessee, Borrower, or anyone holding or claiming under or through them, to have their separate estates sold separately upon foreclosure, whether under principles of marshalling or otherwise.
(b) Except as specified in Section 11.02, in any action commenced to enforce the Obligations created or arising under this Instrument, any resulting judgment or decree shall be enforceable against Ground Lessee only to the extent of Ground Lessee’s interest in the Property or other property subject to any security interest securing the Note. Subject to Section 11.01, (i) any execution on such judgment or decree, with respect to the assets of Ground Lessee, shall be limited to the Property or other property subject to any security interest securing the Note, and (ii) Ground Lessee shall not be personally liable for the payment of the indebtedness or other Obligations secured by this Instrument, nor shall execution on any judgment or decree resulting from any action to enforce the Obligations be or be caused to be a lien on any other asset of Ground Lessee other than the Property or other property subject to any security interest securing the Note.
(c) Ground Lessee and Borrower each agree that neither this Instrument nor any obligation of Ground Lessee and Borrower hereunder will be released, impaired or subordinated by any amendment to this Instrument or any other document or extension of time or waiver of right or remedy as to Ground Lessee, Borrower, or any other party, or any other act or thing which, but for this provision, would so release, impair, or subordinate.
(d) Ground Lessee and Ground Lessee’s interest in the Ground Lease and the Property shall be subject to all of the provisions of Section 5.01.
(e) Under no circumstances shall Lender or any of its successors or assigns have any obligation or liability of any kind or nature based upon or arising under the Ground Lease, regardless of whether such obligation or liability (i) is an obligation or liability of either ground lessee or ground lessor under the Ground Lease, or (ii) arises either before or after Lender acquired title to the Property.
(f) Ground Lessee and Borrower each hereby acknowledge and agree that all of the Ground Lessee’s rights and remedies under the Ground Lease, including without limitation any rights of first refusal or any purchase rights, are subject to and subordinate to this Instrument.
Operating Leases Not permit the aggregate amount of all rental payments under Operating Leases made (or scheduled to be made) by the Loan Parties (on a consolidated basis) to exceed $1,000,000 in any Fiscal Year.
Leasing Matters Any Lease executed after the date hereof (and any amendment or termination thereof) shall require the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall be in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion. Borrower shall furnish Lender with true, correct and complete executed copies of all Leases, amendments thereof and any related agreements. Without limitation, and as applicable, Lender shall be deemed to have approved all renewals of Leases and all proposed Leases so long as the same (a) provide for rental rates comparable to existing local market rates, contain reasonable market rate terms and do not contain any terms which would materially adversely affect Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents, (b) are for a lease term not exceeding one year, including all extensions, (c) are with individual, residential, non-commercial tenants, and (d) have been entered into by Borrower in its ordinary course of business. All Leases executed after the date hereof shall provide that they are subordinate to the Security Instrument and the Liens created thereby and that the Tenant thereunder agrees to attorn to Lender or any other purchaser of the Property at a sale by foreclosure (or deed in lieu thereof) or power of sale. Borrower (a) shall observe and perform the obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases in a commercially reasonable manner; (b) shall enforce the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of the Tenant thereunder to be observed or performed in a commercially reasonable manner and in a manner which does not impair the value of the Property involved, provided that in no event shall Borrower terminate or accept the surrender of any Lease by a Tenant unless by reason of a Tenant default and then only in a commercially reasonable manner to preserve and protect the Property; provided, however, that no such termination or surrender of any Lease will be permitted without the prior written consent of Lender or unless such termination or surrender is specifically provided for in the Lease; (c) shall not collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in advance (other than security deposits required pursuant to such Lease); (d) shall not execute any other assignment of the lessor’s interest in the Leases or the Rents (except to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents); (e) shall not alter, modify or change the terms of the Leases; and (f) shall execute and deliver at the request of Lender all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Leases as Lender shall from time to time reasonably require. Lender shall have the right to require each new Tenant to execute and deliver to Lender a subordination, non-disturbance of possession and attornment agreement in form, content and manner of execution reasonably acceptable to Lender.
Real Property; Leasehold Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries owns or has ever owned any real property. The Company has made available to Parent (a) an accurate and complete list of all real properties with respect to which the Company directly or indirectly holds a valid leasehold interest as well as any other real estate that is in the possession of or leased by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and (b) copies of all leases under which any such real property is possessed (the “Company Real Estate Leases”), each of which is in full force and effect, with no existing material default thereunder. The Company’s use and operation of each such leased property conforms to all applicable Laws in all material respects, and the Company has exclusive possession of each such leased property and has not granted any occupancy rights to tenants or licensees with respect to such leased property. In addition, each such leased property is free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances.
Space Leases (i) To Borrower’s best knowledge, Borrower has delivered a true, correct and complete schedule of all Space Leases as of the date hereof, which accurately and completely sets forth in all material respects, for each such Space Lease, the following (collectively, the “Rent Roll”): the name and address of the tenant; the lease expiration date, extension and renewal provisions; the base rent and percentage rent payable; and the security deposit held thereunder.
(ii) Each Space Lease constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower or, the Operating Tenant, as applicable, and, to the knowledge of Borrower, is enforceable against the tenant thereof. No default exists, or with the passing of time or the giving of notice would exist, which would, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
(iii) To Borrower’s best knowledge, no tenant under any Major Space Lease has, as of the date hereof, paid Rent more than thirty (30) days in advance, and the Rents under such Major Space Leases have not been waived, released, or otherwise discharged or compromised.
(iv) To Borrower’s best knowledge, except as disclosed in writing to Lender, all work to be performed by Borrower under the Space Leases has been substantially performed, all contributions to be made by Borrower to the tenants thereunder have been made except for any held-back amounts, and all other conditions precedent to each such tenant’s obligations thereunder have been satisfied.
(v) To Borrower’s best knowledge, except as previously disclosed to Lender in writing or contained in the Space Leases, there are no options to terminate any Space Lease.
(vi) To Borrower’s best knowledge, each tenant under a Major Space Lease or such tenant’s authorized subtenant is currently occupying the space demised by such Major Space Lease.
(vii) To Borrower’s best knowledge, Borrower has delivered to Lender true, correct and complete copies of all Space Leases described in the Rent Roll.
(viii) No Space Lease has been assigned or, to Borrower’s best knowledge, modified, supplemented or amended in any way.
(ix) To Borrower’s best knowledge, each tenant under each Space Lease is free from bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement proceedings or a general assignment for the benefit of creditors.
(x) To Borrower’s best knowledge, no Space Lease provides any party with the right to obtain a lien or encumbrance upon the Property superior to the lien of this Security Instrument.
Additional Material Real Estate Assets (a) In the event that any Credit Party acquires a Material Real Estate Asset or a Real Estate Asset owned or leased on the Closing Date becomes a Material Real Estate Asset, in each case (other than with respect to a Foreign Credit Party), located in the United States, and such interest in such Material Real Estate Asset has not otherwise been made subject to the Lien of the Collateral Documents in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, then such Credit Party shall promptly take all such actions and execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such mortgages, documents, instruments, agreements, opinions and certificates, including the items specified in Section 5.11(c), that the Requisite Lenders shall reasonably request to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, a valid and, subject to any filing and/or recording referred to herein, perfected First Priority security interest in such Material Real Estate Assets.
(b) The Borrower shall, at the request of the Requisite Lenders, deliver, from time to time, to the Collateral Agent and the Lenders such appraisals as are required by law or regulation of Real Estate Assets with respect to which the Collateral Agent has been granted a Lien.
(c) In the case of any Material Real Estate Asset referred to in Section 5.11(a), the applicable Credit Party shall provide the Collateral Agent with Mortgages with respect to such Real Estate Asset (each, a “Mortgaged Property”), as the case may be, within sixty (60) days (or such longer period as shall be agreed by the Requisite Lenders) of the acquisition of such Real Estate Asset (or the date a Real Estate Asset owned or leased on the Closing Date becomes a Material Real Estate Asset) together with:
(i) evidence that counterparts of any such Mortgage has been duly executed, acknowledged and delivered and such Mortgage is in form suitable for filing or recording in all filing or recording offices that the Requisite Lenders may deem reasonably necessary or desirable in order to create a valid and subsisting perfected Lien on the property and/or rights described therein in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that all filing and recording taxes and fees that are due and payable have been paid or otherwise provided for in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Lenders;
(ii) upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Requisite Lenders), an opinion of counsel (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Lenders) in each state in which a Mortgaged Property is located with respect to the enforceability of the form(s) of Mortgages to be recorded in such state and such other matters as the Requisite Lenders may reasonably request, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Lenders;
(iii) mortgagee title insurance policies or unconditional commitments therefor issued by one or more title companies reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Lenders with respect to each Mortgaged Property (each, a “Title Policy”), in amounts not less than the Fair Market Value of each Mortgaged Property, together with a title report issued by a title company with respect thereto and copies of all recorded documents listed as exceptions to title or otherwise referred to therein, each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Lenders (it being understood that any exceptions listed in a Title Policy constituting Permitted Liens shall be satisfactory) and (B) evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Lenders that such Credit Party has paid to the title company or to the appropriate Governmental Authorities all expenses and premiums of the title company and all other sums required in connection with the issuance of each Title Policy and all recording and stamp taxes (including mortgage recording and intangible taxes) payable in connection with recording the Mortgages for each Mortgaged Property in the appropriate real estate records;

(v) such surveys, abstracts, appraisals and other documents as the Requisite Lenders may reasonably request.
