payments to be satisfied by such draw and the name or number of the account
from which the draw was made. Any such charge shall be subject to the
provisions of Section 9.3 hereof relating to the sharing of recoveries among
Lenders.
1.6. Lender's Costs.
Borrower shall, upon the request of Agent,
pay Agent the amount of all unpaid Lenders' Costs within fifteen days after
such notice. Until paid, all past due and owing interest payments, fees and
all past due Lenders' Costs shall be deemed to be part of the principal
balance of the Loan, bear interest at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.

The words "herein", "hereof", "hereunder"
and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole,
including the exhibits hereto, as the same may from time to time be amended,

2. THE LOAN
2.1. The Facility.
2.1.1. Extension of Credit.
Provided that no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing and subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, commencing on the Closing Date and expiring on the Termination
Date, Lenders severally, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares,
shall extend to Borrower the Facility pursuant to which Lender shall make
Advances to Borrower up to $150,000,000 (or such lesser amount to which the
Commitment Amount shall be reduced pursuant to Section 2.2.8.3 hereof), which
Borrower may from time to time, borrow, repay and reborrow.
2.1.2. Payment of Principal.
(14)
The entire outstanding principal
balance of the Facility shall be paid in full on the Termination Date. In the
event the principal amount of all outstanding Advances and the face amounts of
all Letters of Credit issued and outstanding under Section 2.1.8 hereof at any
time exceeds, in the aggregate, the then-current Commitment Amount, Borrower
shall immediately pay such excess to Agent, without demand or notice.
2.1.3. Payment of Interest.
Interest on the Facility shall be
payable monthly, subject to Section 2.2.9 hereof in arrears through the last
Business Day of each month, with the first payment to be made on the first
Business Day of the month next following the Closing Date, and continuing
thereafter on the first Business Day of each month.
2.1.4. Interest Rate Option and Notice
of Rate Election.
Advances shall bear interest on
the unpaid principal balance thereof from the Funding Date to maturity
(whether by acceleration or otherwise): (i) with respect to Base Rate Loans at
the Base Rate per annum (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and charged
for the actual number of days elapsed); and (ii) with respect to Adjusted
LIBOR Loans at the Adjusted LIBOR on the relevant Interest Rate Determination
Date plus the Applicable Margin on the relevant Interest Rate Determination
Date (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and charged for the actual
number of days elapsed). The applicable basis for determining the Interest
Rate Option with respect to each Advance shall be selected by Borrower at the
time a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Rate Election is given pursuant to
Sections 2.2.2, and 2.2.3 hereof. On and as of the fifth (5th) Business Day
after Agent's receipt of each quarterly Covenant Compliance Certificate, the
interest rate payable on each outstanding Adjusted LIBOR Loan shall be reset
at the Adjusted LIBOR on the relevant Interest Rate Determination Date plus
the then-current Applicable Margin.
2.1.5. Unused Fee.
Borrower agrees to pay to Lender
a fee at an annual rate equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum
(calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360
days or any part thereof) of the aggregate daily average unused portion of the
Facility after Closing and until the Termination Date, payable in arrears,
such payments to be made within five (5) Business Days after the last day of
the Calendar Quarter in which Closing occurs and thereafter within five (5)
Business Days after the last day of each Calendar Quarter and on the
Termination Date. The annual rate of such fee shall, with respect to any
Calendar Quarter, be reduced to (i) twenty one-hundredths of one percent
(0.20%) if during such Calendar Quarter the daily average outstanding
principal balance of all Advances was greater than 33% and less than 67% of
the Commitment Amount and (ii) to fifteen one-hundredths of one percent
(0.15%) if during such Calendar Quarter the daily average outstanding
principal balance of all Advances was not less than 67% of the Commitment
Amount. For purposes of calculating the Unused Fee, the principal amount of
all outstanding Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be used portions of the
Facility.
(15)
2.1.6. Other Fees.
Borrower shall pay Agent for the
account of Agent or of Lenders, as the case may be, such other fees as may be
agreed upon in separate writings signed by Borrower.
2.1.7. Notes.
To evidence Borrower's
obligations under the Facility, Borrower shall execute and deliver to each
Lender a Note in the principal amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the
Commitment Amount.
2.1.8. Letters of Credit.
Upon receipt of a properly
executed Notice of Borrowing submitted by Borrower to Agent at least five (5)
Business Days before the date of issuance, Agent shall issue a Letter or
Letters of Credit to a beneficiary designated by Borrower, for the purpose of
collateralizing such of Borrower's obligations as are required to be secured
by a Letter of Credit. The aggregate face amount of issued Letters of Credit
under this Section 2.1.8 shall not exceed $20,000,000 at any time. Letters of
Credit may provide for automatic renewal absent termination by Agent, provided
however, no Letter of Credit hereunder shall be issued with an expiration date
exceeding one year and no Letter of Credit shall be issued with an expiration
date after the Termination Date. Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the
terms and conditions of Agent's standard unsecured application and agreement
in effect at the time of the issuance of the Letter of Credit, the current
form of which is attached hereto as Schedule 2.1.8.
2.1.8.1. Letter of Credit Fees.
Borrower agrees to pay (i) to Agent for the account of Lenders in accordance
with their respective Pro Rata Shares, a letter of credit fee at an annual
rate of 0.875% of the principal face amount of each issued Letter of Credit,
and (ii) to Agent, for its own account, an issuance fee at the annual rate of
0.125% of the principal face amount of each issued Letter of Credit. The fees
payable pursuant to this Section 2.1.7 shall be payable quarterly in arrears.
2.1.8.2. Reduction of Available
Credit. Letters of Credit shall reduce, dollar-for-dollar, the available
borrowings under the Facility and, upon the termination thereof, shall
increase the available borrowings, subject to the maximum amount of the
Facility as provided herein.
2.1.8.3. Draws under Letter of
Credit. All draws under Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Advances to be
repaid in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1.2 hereof.
(16)
2.1.8.4. Other Documents.
Borrower agrees to execute and deliver such documents and instruments as Agent
may require in connection with each Letter of Credit.
2.1.9. Venture Loans.
Provided that no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, and subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, commencing on the Closing Date and expiring on the Termination
Date, Borrower may request that Loans be made to any Venture in which Borrower
or any wholly-owned subsidiary of Borrower has a 50% or more beneficial, or
other controlling, ownership interest (but excluding PREIT/Xxxxx), and Lenders
shall extend to such Venture such Venture Loan; provided, however, that the
aggregate face amount of all outstanding Venture Loans shall not exceed
$20,000,000 at any one time, except that the aforesaid $20,000,000 sublimit
and the available borrowings under the Facility shall be reduced, dollar for
dollar, by the amount that is outstanding from time to time under the
Promissory Note dated May 2, 1992, as amended, made by Turren Associates in
favor of CoreStates Bank, N.A. (the "Turren Note"), until the Turren Note is
replaced with Venture Notes executed by Turren Associates in favor of each
Lender in the principal amount at equal to each Lender's Pro Rata Share of the
Venture Loan to Turren Associates and the execution of a Guaranty. On the
Funding Date of any Venture Loan, Borrower shall cause the Venture which is to
be the borrower of such Venture Loan to execute and deliver to each Lender a
promissory note in the form attached hereto as Schedule 2.1.9A in the
principal amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Venture Loan and
Borrower and the General Partner shall execute and deliver to Agent a guaranty
or guaranties of such Venture Loan in the form attached hereto as Schedule
2.1.9B in favor of Lenders. Each Venture Loan shall reduce, dollar for dollar,
the available borrowings under the Facility. With respect to each Venture
Loan, the applicable Venture shall select one Interest Rate option for the
entire principal amount thereof that is outstanding at any time, except that
any subsequent extension of credit made by Lenders to a Venture during an
Interest Period shall bear interest at the Base Rate until the expiration of
the relevant Interest Period.
2.2 General Provisions.
2.2.1. Advances.
Advances shall be made by Lenders
simultaneously and proportionately to their Pro Rata Shares, it being
understood that the obligations of Lenders to advance funds to Borrower
hereunder are independent and that no Lender shall be responsible for any
default by any other Lender in that other Lender's obligation to make any such
Advance, nor shall the commitment of any other Lender be increased or
decreased as a result of the default of any other Lender in that other
Lender's obligation to make Advances hereunder.
(17)
2.2.2. Notice of Borrowing.
Subject to the provisions of this
Article 2, whenever Borrower desires to borrow under this Agreement, Borrower
shall deliver by telecopy to Agent a properly completed and executed Notice of
Borrowing with respect to (i) Adjusted LIBOR Loans no later than 11:00 A.M. at
least three (3) London Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date,
or (ii) Base Rate Loans no later than 11:00 A.M. at least one (1) Business Day
in advance of the proposed Funding Date. The Notice of Borrowing shall specify
(i) the proposed Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount
of the proposed Advance, if any, (iii) whether an Advance is initially to
consist of Base Rate Loans, Adjusted LIBOR Loans or a combination thereof, and
(v) if such Advance, or any portion thereof, is initially to be one or more
Adjusted LIBOR Loans, the amounts thereof and the initial Interest Periods
therefor; provided that the minimum amount of Advances shall be $500,000 for
Base Rate Loans (unless a Base Rate Loan is to be made to a Venture, in which
event the amount thereof may be less than $500,000, provided that no more than
one Advance is made to such Venture in any calendar month) and $2,000,000 for
Adjusted LIBOR Loans, except that at no time shall the aggregate number of
Interest Periods and Base Rate Loans, excluding Venture Loans, that Agent
shall be required to administer at any time exceed eight (8). Subject to the
foregoing limitations, Loans may be continued as or converted into Adjusted
LIBOR Loans in the manner provided in Section 2.2.3 hereof upon the submission
to Lender of a properly completed and executed Notice of Rate Election.
A Notice of Borrowing or a Notice
of Rate Election for an Adjusted LIBOR Loan shall be irrevocable on and after
the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound to
make, continue or convert to an Adjusted LIBOR Loan in accordance therewith.
2.2.3. Notice of Rate Election; Failure
to Give Notice.
Whenever Borrower desires to
change or continue the Interest Rate Option on a Loan, Borrower shall deliver
to Agent a Notice of Rate Election with respect to Adjusted LIBOR Loans no
later than 11:00 A.M. at least three (3) London Business Days in advance of
the proposed change or continuation. No notice shall be necessary to continue
any Base Rate Loan at the Base Rate. The Notice of Rate Election shall
specify: (i) the proposed date of change or continuation or conversion (which
shall be a Business Day); (ii) the type of Loan and amount thereof affected;
(iii) whether such interest rate change or continuation is to consist of Base
Rate Loans, Adjusted LIBOR Loans or a combination thereof; and (iv) the
Interest Periods therefor, if applicable. If at the termination of any
Interest Period Borrower has failed to submit a Notice of Rate Election, as
aforesaid, to convert or to continue Adjusted LIBOR Loans at the interest rate
that is based on Adjusted LIBOR, then such Adjusted LIBOR Loans shall
automatically be and become Base Rate Loans as of the termination of the
relevant Interest Period.
(18)
Upon the expiration of any
Interest Period applicable to portions of the Facility bearing interest based
on the Adjusted LIBOR, such portions of the Facility shall be deemed repaid
and reborrowed upon the submission to Agent of a properly completed and
executed Notice of Rate Election pertaining thereto within the requisite time
periods for a change or continuation of an Interest Rate Option, and the
succeeding Interest Period(s) of such continued portions of the Facility shall
commence on the first day of the Interest Period of the portions of the
Facility deemed to be reborrowed and continued.
Adjusted LIBOR Loans may be
converted into Base Rate Loans only on the expiration date of an Interest
Period applicable thereto. In addition, no outstanding portions of the
Facility may be continued as, or be converted into, Adjusted LIBOR Loans when
any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing.
If on any day portions of the
Facility are outstanding with respect to which a Notice of Rate Election has
not been delivered to Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
specifying the basis for determining the Interest Rate Option, then such
portions of the Facility shall bear interest at the Base Rate.
2.2.4. Funding. By 5:00 p.m. on the day
Agent receives a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.2.2, Agent shall
notify each Lender by facsimile transmission of the proposed borrowing. Except
as provided in the following paragraph of this Section 2.2.4, upon
satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified in Sections 4.1 (in the
case of the initial Advances) and 4.2 (in the case of all subsequent
Advances), not later than 11:00 A.M. on the Funding Date specified in the
Notice of Borrowing each Lender shall wire transfer to such account of Agent
as Agent shall designate an amount in immediately available funds equal to the
amount of each Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Advance to be made to Borrower
on such Funding Date. Agent shall cause such Advances to be made available to
Borrower on the Funding Date pertaining thereto by depositing the amount
thereof in the designated account of Borrower with Agent.
Each Lender shall make the amount of its Pro Rata Share of
the Advance available to Agent, in same day funds at the office of Agent
located at Broad and Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, 00000, not
later than 11:00 A.M. on the Funding Date. Unless Agent shall have been
notified by any Lender prior to any Funding Date in respect of any Advances
that such Lender does not intend to make available to Agent such Lender's Pro
Rata Share of the Advance on such Funding Date, Agent may assume that such
Lender has made such amount available to Borrower on such Funding Date and
Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, make
available to Borrower a corresponding amount on such Funding Date by
depositing the proceeds thereof in the designated Deposit Account of Borrower
with Agent. If any Lender's Pro Rata Share is not in fact made available
(either by a wire transfer to Agent or otherwise) to Agent by such Lender,
Agent shall not be required to advance to Borrower on the Funding Date any
amount not made available to Agent by a Lender; provided, that if Agent (or
any other Lender(s)) advances to Borrower on the Funding Date any amount not
made available to Agent by a Lender, Agent (or such Lender) shall notify
(19)
Borrower that Agent (or such Lender) has advanced more than its Pro Rata Share
of such Advance and that such Advance is subject to reclamation in accordance
with the provisions of this Section. Any amount so advanced shall be deemed to
be an Advance which Borrower is obligated to repay as set forth under this
Agreement; and Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on
demand from such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from such
Funding Date until the date such amount is paid to the Agent at the daily
average Federal Funds Effective Rate for such period. If such Lender does not
pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Agent's demand therefor, the
Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately
pay such corresponding amount to the Agent, together with interest at the
Interest Rate Option chosen by Borrower for such Advance. If such Advance was
in the form of an Adjusted LIBOR Loan, any prepayment penalty under Section
2.2.8.1 for breakage of an Interest Period shall be paid by the Lender which
failed to fund its Pro Rata Share of such Advance.
In the event that any Lender fails to advance its Pro Rata
Share of any Advance, then such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the aggregate
principal, interest, fees and recoveries on all Advances will be reduced so as
to be proportionate to the amount such Lender did advance but will not cause a
comparable reduction in such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the expenses of
collection of the Indebtedness from Borrower or other costs or expenses
relating to this Agreement. Such reduction will not affect or limit such
Lender's obligation to advance its full Pro Rata Share of any and all future
Advances or other obligations.
2.2.5. Interest Periods.
In connection with each Adjusted
LIBOR Loan, Borrower shall elect an Interest Period to be applicable to such
Loan, which Interest Period shall be either a one, two, three, or six month
period; provided that:
2.2.5.1. the first Interest
Period for any Adjusted LIBOR Loan shall commence on the Funding Date of such
Adjusted LIBOR Loan;
2.2.5.2. except as provided in
subsection 2.2.5.3 hereof, if an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a
day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next
succeeding Business Day;
2.2.5.3. any Interest Period in
respect of an Adjusted LIBOR Loan which: (i) begins on the last Business Day
of a calendar month (or a day for which there is no numerically corresponding
day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall end on the
last Business Day of the relevant calendar month, or (ii) would expire on a
day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no
further Business Day occurs in that month, such Interest Period shall expire
on the last Business Day of the month;
2.2.5.4. no Interest Period, with
respect to any Loan, shall extend beyond the Termination Date.
(20)
2.2.6. Post-Maturity Interest.
Any principal payments on the
Loans not paid when due and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any
interest payment on the Loans not paid when due, and any other amount due to
Agent or Lenders under this Agreement or any other Loan Document not paid when
due, in any case whether at stated maturity, by notice of prepayment, by
acceleration or otherwise, shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand
at a rate which is (i) 2% per annum in excess of the applicable Interest Rate
on each Adjusted LIBOR Loan until the expiration of the then applicable
Interest Period, if any, and (ii) after the expiration of the then applicable
Interest Period, if any, and on all Base Rate Loans, at a rate which is 2% per
annum in excess of the Base Rate.
2.2.7. Adjusted LIBOR and Base Rate.
2.2.7.1. Agent shall give
Borrower prompt notice of the Adjusted LIBOR determined for an Interest
Period, and absent manifest error, each determination of such rates by Agent
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes hereof.
2.2.7.2. If Borrower requests
that all or any portion of the outstanding Facility bear interest at the
Adjusted LIBOR and (i) Agent determines that, by reason of circumstances
affecting the interbank Eurodollar market generally, deposits in U.S. Dollars
(in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to banks in the interbank
Eurodollar market for the selected Interest Period, or (ii) the Requisite
Lenders certify that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the
definition of Adjusted LIBOR do not accurately reflect the cost to Lenders of
making or maintaining Adjusted LIBOR Loans for the Interest Periods therefor,
then Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to Borrower, whereupon until
Agent notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension
no longer exist, (a) the obligation of Lenders to permit applicable portions
of the Facility to bear interest at the Adjusted LIBOR shall be suspended so
long as such circumstances exist, and (b) Borrower shall convert the interest
rates on the applicable portions of the outstanding Facility to the Base Rate
or the available Adjusted LIBOR on the last day of the then current Interest
Period.
2.2.7.3. If, after the date of
this Agreement, the adoption of or any change in Rules, or change in the
interpretation or administration thereof, by a governmental authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by Lenders with any request or directive (whether or
not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable
agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make or maintain
or fund loans at the Adjusted LIBOR, the affected Lender or Lenders shall
promptly notify Borrower and the interest rates on the applicable portions of
the outstanding Facility shall be deemed to have been converted to the Base
Rate, or the Adjusted LIBOR, whichever is available, on either (i) the last
day of the then current Interest Period if the affected Lenders may lawfully
continue to maintain loans at the Adjusted LIBOR to such day, or (ii)
immediately if the affected Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain loans
at the Adjusted LIBOR to such day. The affected Lenders will use their best
(21)
efforts to designate a different lending office if such office may lawfully
continue to maintain loans at the Adjusted LIBOR through the end of the then
current Interest Period. After Borrower's receipt of notice of the illegality
or impossibility for any Lender to make, maintain or fund loans at the
Adjusted LIBOR, Borrower shall not request future Adjusted LIBOR Loans until
the affected Lender or Lenders shall have notified Borrower of the absence or
removal of such illegality or impossibility.
2.2.7.4. If, after the date of
this Agreement, any governmental authority, central bank or other comparable
authority shall at any time impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve
(including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System), any tax (including without limitation, any United
States interest equalization tax or similar tax however named applicable to
the acquisition or holding of debt obligations and any interest or penalties
with respect thereto), duty, charge, fee, deduction, withholding, special
deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with, or for the
account of, or credit extended by, any Lender, or shall impose on any Lender
or the interbank Eurodollar market any other condition affecting loans at the
Adjusted LIBOR, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost
to any Lender of making or maintaining the interest rate at the Adjusted LIBOR
or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Lender under
this Agreement, the Notes or the Venture Notes by an amount deemed by such
Lender to be material, then within five days after demand by such Lender,
Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate Lender for such increased cost or reduction. Each affected Lender
will promptly notify Borrower and Agent of any event of which it has knowledge
occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to
compensation pursuant to this subsection 2.2.7.4. A certificate of any Lender
claiming compensation under this subsection 2.2.7.4 and setting forth the
additional amount or amounts to be paid to such Lender hereunder shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
2.2.7.5. The Adjusted LIBOR shall
be adjusted automatically on and as of the effective day of any change in the
relevant Reserve Percentage.
2.2.7.6. Promptly upon notice
from Agent to Borrower, Borrower will pay, prior to the date on which
penalties attach thereto, all present and future stamp, documentary and other
similar taxes, levies, or costs and charges whatsoever imposed, assessed,
levied or collected on or in respect of the Loans solely as a result of the
interest rate being determined by reference to the Adjusted LIBOR and/or the
provisions of this Agreement relating to the Adjusted LIBOR and/or the
recording, registration, notarization or other formalization of any thereof
and/or payments of principal, interest or other amounts made on or in respect
of a Loan when the interest rate is determined by reference to the Adjusted
LIBOR (all such taxes, levies, costs and charges being herein collectively
called "Eurodollar Rate Tax"). Promptly after the date on which payment of any
such Eurodollar Rate Tax is due pursuant to applicable law, Borrower will, at
the request of Agent, furnish to Agent evidence, in form and substance
satisfactory to Agent, that Borrower has met its obligation under this
subsection 2.2.7.6. Borrower will indemnify each Lender against, and reimburse
(22)
each Lender on demand for, any Eurodollar Rate Tax, as determined by such
Lender in its good faith discretion. Each such Lender shall provide Borrower
with appropriate receipts for any payments or reimbursements made by Borrower
pursuant to this subsection 2.2.7.6. A certificate of Agent or of any Lender
as to any amount payable pursuant to this Section shall, absent manifest
error, be final, conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.
2.2.7.7. If Agent or any Lender
shall determine that (i) any current Rule, law, regulation, or guideline, the
adoption or imposition of any Rules, law, regulation, or guideline any change
in any Rules, law, regulation or guideline, or the adoption, imposition or
change in the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental
authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation
and administration thereof, or (ii) compliance by any Lender (or any lending
office or any holding company of any Lender) with any request, guideline or
directive whether or not having the force of law regarding special deposit,
capital adequacy, risk based capital, capital or reserve maintenance, capital
ratio, or similar requirements against loans or loan commitments or any
commitments to extend credit or other assets of or any deposits or other
liabilities taken or entered into by any Lender (including the capital
adequacy guidelines promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System) and the result of any event referred to in clauses (i) or (ii)
above (x) shall be to increase the cost to Lender of making or maintaining, or
to impose upon any Lender or increase any capital requirement applicable as a
result of the making or maintenance of, the Loans or the obligation of
Borrower hereunder or (y) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return or amounts receivable hereunder on any Loan as a consequence of any
Lender's obligations pursuant to this Agreement or Loans made by any Lender
pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Lender (or such Lender's
holding company) could have achieved but for such adoption, imposition, change
or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the
policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by
an amount deemed by such holder to be material (which adoption, imposition,
change, or increase in capital requirements or reduction in amounts receivable
may be determined by such Lender's reasonable allocation of the aggregate of
such cost increase, capital increase or imposition or reductions in amounts
receivable resulting from such events), then, from time to time, Borrower
shall pay to such Lenders, on demand by such Lender as set forth below, such
additional amount or amounts as will be necessary to restore the rate of
return to such Lender from the date of such change, together with interest on
such amount from the date demanded until payment thereof in full at the rate
provided in this Agreement. Each Lender (or each Lender's holding company)
shall be entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.2.7.7. A
certificate of any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 2.2.7.7 and
setting forth the increased cost, reduction in amounts receivable, additional
amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender (or such Lender's
holding company) hereunder shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Borrower shall pay each Lender
the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by such Lender
within 10 days after Borrower's receipt of same. If any Lender demands
compensation under this Section 2.2.7.7, Borrower may, upon 10 Business Days'
prior notice to Lender, prepay in full, in accordance with Section 2.2.8
hereof, the then outstanding: (i) Base Rate Loans together with accrued
interest thereon to the date of prepayment without penalty; and (ii) Adjusted
(23)
LIBOR Loans, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment
along with a prepayment premium in an amount equal to the amount of any loss
or expense, including loss of margin, actually incurred by such Lender as a
direct result of such prepayment, as determined by such Lender in good faith,
in each case payable to such Lender. Concurrently with prepaying such Base
Rate Loans or Adjusted LIBOR Loans, Borrower may, subject to the terms of this
Agreement, borrow from Lenders Advances at an Interest Rate Option not so
affected.
2.2.7.8. Failure on the part of
any Lender to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in
amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect
to any period shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand
compensation with respect to such period or any other period. The protection
of this Section 2.2.7 shall be available to Lenders regardless of any possible
contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation,
guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been
imposed.
2.2.7.9. The Base Rate shall be
determined and adjusted daily.
2.2.8. Prepayment; Repayments;
Prepayment Premium.
2.2.8.1. Voluntary Prepayments.
All prepayments shall be applied among the Lenders in accordance with the Pro
Rata Share of each. In connection with each prepayment:
(a) Borrower shall provide Agent
with at least one (1) Business Day prior notice of Borrower's intention to
prepay, specifying the amount and date of such payment.
(b) Borrower shall concurrently
with any prepayment in full of the Facility pay the full amount of all
interest accrued on the Facility and accrued fees (including without
limitation the Unused Fee attributable to the expired portion of the period
with respect to which such fees have not yet been paid), and payments received
shall be applied first to fees, then to accrued interest and thereafter in
reduction of principal.
(c) Each prepayment of principal
shall be in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00)
(exclusive of the interest and fees payable in connection therewith and of the
other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement upon a prepayment).
(d) Borrower acknowledges that if
Borrower makes a prepayment of any Adjusted LIBOR Loan (whether voluntary or
mandatory), Lenders will not likely be able to reinvest promptly the amount so
prepaid in a loan of comparable creditworthiness and on terms equivalent to
the terms hereof. Accordingly, in the event Borrower makes a prepayment
(24)
(whether voluntary or mandatory) of any portion of the Loans bearing interest
at a rate based on the Adjusted LIBOR during a specified Interest Period on a
day other than the last day of such Interest Period, Borrower will pay to the
Agent upon demand, for the account of the Lenders, any cost or expense
incurred as a result of such prepayment. Each Lender shall certify the amount
of such cost or expense to Borrower and provide Borrower with a written
statement setting forth the cost or expense claimed and the calculations used
in determining such loss and expense, which certification and statement shall
be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
Prepayments shall be applied
first to interest (to the extent then payable), then to principal with respect
to the portions of the Loans accruing interest at a rate based upon the Base
Rate, and then to principal with respect to those portions of the Loans
accruing interest at a rate based upon the Adjusted LIBOR and among such
portions of the Loans accruing interest at rates based upon the Adjusted LIBOR
to such portions with the earliest expiring Interest Periods.
2.2.8.2. Funding Losses. If the
Borrower fails to borrow any Adjusted LIBOR Loans after a Notice of Borrowing
or Notice of Rate Election has been given to Lender as provided in this
Article 2, Borrower shall reimburse each Lender, on demand, for any resulting
loss or expense incurred by it (or by any existing or prospective participant
in the related Loan), including (without limitation) any loss incurred in
obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, provided that
such Lender shall have delivered to the Borrower a certificate as to the
amount of such loss or expense and specifying the calculation thereof, which
certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
2.2.8.3. Termination or Reduction
in Commitments. Borrower shall have the right without premium or penalty
except as provided in Section 2.2.8.1 hereof, upon not less than three (3)
Business Days' prior written notice to Agent, at any time after the Closing
Date to reduce or terminate any or all of the commitments of Lenders regarding
the Facility. Any voluntary termination or reduction in the Commitment Amount
shall permanently reduce the Commitment Amount. No such reduction in
Commitment Amount shall be in an amount less than $3,000,000. If Borrower
desires to terminate or reduce the Commitment Amount as aforesaid, Borrower
shall execute and deliver to Agent such documents and instruments as Agent
shall require. No reduction of the Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section
2.2.8.3 shall reduce any Lender's Pro Rata Share of the reduced Commitment
Amount.
2.2.9. Manner and Time of Payment.
All payments of principal,
interest and fees hereunder and under the Notes shall be made by Borrower
without notice, set off or counterclaim and in immediately available same day
funds and delivered to Agent not later than 12:00 noon on the date due at its
office located at Broad and Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx,
00000 for the account of Lenders; funds received by Agent after that time
shall be deemed to have been paid by Borrower on the next succeeding Business
Day.
(25)
2.2.10. Apportionment of Payments.
Aggregate principal and interest
payments in respect of Loans shall be apportioned among all outstanding Loans
to which such payments relate, proportionately to each Lender's respective Pro
Rata Share except to the extent a Lender fails to fund its portion of such
Loan (in which case such Lender shall be entitled to a portion of principal
and interest payments determined with respect to the ratio of Loans made by it
to all outstanding Loans). Agent shall within one Business Day distribute by
wire transfer to each Lender its share of all payments received by Agent for
the benefit of Lenders, provided that immediately available same day funds
received by Agent not later than noon on a Business Day shall be distributed
to Lenders on such Business Day.
2.2.11. Use of Proceeds.
The Facility shall be used solely
by Borrower (i) to finance the acquisition, expansion and renovation of real
estate assets wholly-owned by Borrower, (ii) to refinance existing
indebtedness, (iii) for its working capital purposes (including without
limitation for investments in and loans to Ventures), and (iv) to fulfill
Borrower's obligations to Ventures to obtain Venture Loans.
2.2.12. Maximum Available Credit.
Notwithstanding anything herein
to the contrary, the maximum amount of the Loans to Borrower that may be
outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the Commitment Amount, less (i)
the aggregate maximum amount of all Venture Loans then outstanding (including
all unfunded portions thereof), and (ii) the face amount of all outstanding
Letters of Credit.
2.2.13. Postponement of Termination Date.
2.2.13.1. If Borrower's Leverage
Ratio is, at any time prior to December 31, 1998, less than 50% (i) the
Termination Date shall automatically be postponed to December 31, 2000 and
(ii) Borrower shall have the right to request subsequent postponements of the
Termination Date by written notice received by Agent not earlier than the date
Agent receives the financial statements due pursuant to Section 6.1.9 hereof
in the year such request is made or later than the November 1st of the
calendar year immediately preceding the year in which the then-current
Termination Date occurs. Any such request shall be to extend the Termination
Date by 12 months. Agent shall advise Borrower in writing, not later than 60
days after the later to occur of (i) Agent's receipt of such request or (ii)
Agent's receipt of the financial statements due pursuant to Section 6.1.9
hereof during the calendar year immediately preceding the then-current
Termination Date, whether all Lenders have approved such request, which
approval shall be in Lenders' sole discretion. Each Lender shall advise Agent
in writing, not later than five (5) days before Agent's response to Borrower
is required, whether such Lender approves Borrower's request. If all Lenders
(26)
approve such request, the Termination Date shall be postponed for 12 months
and Borrower, Agent and Lenders shall promptly execute and deliver such
documentation Agent may require to evidence such postponement. If Agent does
not give Borrower written notice of Lenders' approval of the requested
postponement, the then-current Termination Date shall remain unchanged.
2.2.13.2. In the event that
Requisite Lenders, but not all Lenders, approve Borrower's request (such
Lenders that do not approve such request being "Refusing Lenders"), Borrower
may elect to seek to obtain a replacement lender or lenders (which may be one
or more of Lenders or may be another institution acceptable to Agent in good
faith) to purchase the Refusing Lenders' Pro Rata Shares of the Facility and
to become a Lender hereunder. Upon written request of Borrower and Agent, each
Refusing Lender shall assign to the designated replacement Lender(s) all or
any portion of the Refusing Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Facility (provided
that the interest of a replacement Lender in the Facility may not be less than
$10,000,000), such assignment to be without recourse or warranty by the
Refusing Lender, other than a warranty of title to the assigned interest in
the Facility, and to be effected by an instrument of assignment in the form
attached hereto as Schedule 2.2.13.2. If substitute Lenders are so obtained
and the Pro Rata Shares of all Refusing Lenders so assigned by the September
30th immediately preceding the then-current Termination Date, the Termination
Dates shall be postponed to December 31st of the next calendar year;
otherwise, there shall be no postponement of the then-current Termination
Date.
3. SECURITY
3.1. Mortgages.
As security for its obligations under this
Agreement and the Notes, Borrower shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to
Agent a Mortgage with respect to each Property that is part of the
Initial Unencumbered Property Pool and an assignment of rents, leases and
profits and UCC-1 Financing Statements with respect to each such Property.
Borrower shall cause the General Partner to execute, acknowledge and deliver
to Agent the Mortgage, assignment of rents, leases and profits and UCC-1
Financing Statements pertaining to each Property in the Initial Unencumbered
Property Pool in which the General Partner holds legal title. Such Mortgages
shall be in the aggregate amount of the initial Commitment Amount, allocated
among such Properties as Borrower and Lenders have agreed. Within five (5)
Business Days after written notice by Agent from time to time, Borrower shall
re-execute and acknowledge the Mortgages and deliver the same to Agent.
(27)
3.2. Recording of Mortgages.
3.2.1. Agent's Right to Record.
Agent and Lenders agree that no
Mortgage nor any assignment of rents, leases and profits or UCC-1 Financing
Statements will be recorded by or at the direction of Agent or Lenders unless
(i) any Event of Default occurs or (ii) at any time (A) the aggregate maximum
principal amount of all then existing outstanding construction loans (other
than non-recourse construction loans) with respect to which (I) Borrower or
any Venture is the borrower and (II) Requisite Lenders have, in the aggregate,
less than a 51% of the lender's interest, exceeds (B) the maximum amount of
Other Indebtedness then permitted under this Agreement, or (iii) as of or
before December 31, 1998, Agent's right to record Mortgages has not been
terminated as set forth in Section 3.2.2 hereof. Upon the occurrence of any of
the foregoing events, Agent shall promptly cause the Mortgages and such
assignments of rents, leases and profits and UCC-1 Financing Statements to be
recorded. If Agent is authorized to record, and does record, any or all of the
Mortgages and other security instruments, all costs incurred by Agent in the
recording of Mortgages and such other security instruments (including, without
limitation, mortgage, documentary or recording stamps or taxes, and all other
taxes payable by Agent by reason of its holding a Note that is secured by
Mortgages) shall be Lenders' Costs, shall be paid or reimbursed by Borrower
upon demand, and shall be secured by the Mortgages.
3.2.2. Termination of Agent's Right to
Record.
If (i) no event shall theretofore
have occurred that would, pursuant to Section 3.2.1 hereof, permit Agent to
record the Mortgages and, (ii) as of or before December 31, 1998, (A)
Borrower's Leverage Ratio is not more than 50% and the ratio (expressed as a
percentage) of Borrower's Senior Liabilities to Unencumbered Asset Value is
not more than 60% and (B) Borrower has delivered to Agent written notice that
Borrower elects that Agent's right to record the Mortgage be terminated, Agent
shall have no right thereafter to record any Mortgage and shall promptly
return to Borrower all Mortgages theretofore delivered to Agent pursuant to
this Agreement. If Agent's right to record the Mortgage has not so terminated
by December 31, 1998, Agent shall record the Mortgages and the other documents
referred to in Section 3.1 hereof. If Borrower satisfies the requirements of
the aforesaid clause (ii)(A) but shall not deliver the notice required
pursuant to clause (ii)(B), Borrower may, at its election, thereafter deliver
such notice to Agent and the same shall be deemed to be effective as of the
date of Agent's actual receipt thereof, but only if no Event of Default has
theretofore occurred and only if Borrower has not theretofore delivered to
Agent a subsequent Covenant Compliance Certificate indicating that Borrower no
longer satisfies the requirements of clause (ii)(A). For purposes of
determining whether Borrower has satisfied the requirements of the aforesaid
clause (ii)(A) "as of December 31, 1998," Agent shall adjust Borrower's
Company Prepared Financial Statements as of September 30, 1998 for any
offering of equity securities consummated by Borrower or the General Partner
after September 30, 1998, and if Borrower shall satisfy the requirements of
clause (ii)(A) as of December 31, 1998, and no event has theretofore occurred
(28)
that would, under Section 3.2.1 hereof, permit Agent to record the Mortgages,
Agent's right to record the Mortgages shall automatically terminate without
notice from Borrower.
3.3 Removals from and Additions to
Unencumbered Property Pool.
3.3.1 Prior to the recording of Mortgages
pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof, Agent shall, within ten (10) Business Days
after each written request by Borrower to Agent, return to Borrower the
Mortgage with respect to any Property within the Unencumbered Property Pool,
provided that (i) such Property shall, retroactively as of the last day of the
most recently concluded Calendar Quarter, no longer be deemed to be part of
the Unencumbered Property Pool, (ii) as a result of the removal of such
Property from the Unencumbered Property Pool the covenant contained in Section
6.1.3 hereof would not have been breached as of the last day of the most
recently concluded Calendar Quarter, and (iii) at no time shall there be fewer
than five (5) Properties in the Unencumbered Property Pool, the combined
average occupancy of which is at least 85%. If a Property is requested to be
removed from the Unencumbered Property Pool in connection with its sale, the
Mortgage will be returned to Borrower concurrently with the closing of such
sale and, for purposes of determining Borrower's continued compliance with
Section 6.1.3 hereof following removal of such Property from the Unencumbered
Property Pool, the sale will be deemed to have occurred on the last day of the
most recently concluded Calendar Quarter.
3.3.2. Borrower may at any time, in
connection with the return of a Mortgage by Agent pursuant to Section 3.3.1
hereof, or otherwise, add Properties to the Unencumbered Property Pool by
executing, acknowledging and delivering to Agent a Mortgage encumbering a
Substituted Unencumbered Property and an assignment of rents, leases and
profits and UCC-1 Financing Statements with respect to such Property, and such
Property will thereupon become part of the Unencumbered Property Pool,
provided that (i) the Substituted Unencumbered Property, in the good faith
determination of Agent and Required Lenders, is of like quality to the
Properties that are then part of the Unencumbered Property Pool, (ii) the
Substituted Unencumbered Property will be deemed to have been added to the
Unencumbered Property Pool as of the last day of the most recently concluded
Calendar Quarter for purposes of determining compliance with the covenant
contained in Section 6.1.3 hereof, (iii) the Property that is to become part
of the Unencumbered Property Pool must be free of all liens and encumbrances,
other than Permitted Liens, and (iv) no Property shall be a Substituted
Unencumbered Property unless Agent has received such environmental reports
with respect to such Property as Agent in good faith requires and such reports
are acceptable to Agent and Required Lender in the good faith exercise of
their business judgment.

authorize any of the foregoing; or an involuntary case or other proceeding
shall be commenced against Borrower seeking liquidation, reorganization or
other relief with respect to its debts under the Bankruptcy Code or any other
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking
the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar
official of it or any substantial part of its property, and such involuntary
case or other proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of
sixty (60) days (it being understood that no delay period applies with respect
to any default arising under this Section by reason of the filing of a
voluntary petition by Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or any state
bankruptcy or insolvency statute or the making of an assignment or other
transfer of a material portion of Borrower's assets for the benefit of
Borrower's creditors or by reason of Borrower applying for or consenting to
the appointment of a receiver for Borrower's assets); or an order for relief
shall be entered against the Borrower under any provision of the Bankruptcy
Code or any state bankruptcy or insolvency statute as now or hereafter in
effect;
8.1.5. Entry of a final judgment or judgments
against Borrower by a court of law in an amount exceeding an aggregate of
$1,000,000 outstanding at any one time: (i) which is not fully or
unconditionally covered by insurance; or (ii) for which Borrower has not
established a cash or cash equivalent reserve in the amount of such judgment
or judgments that were entered by a court of record against Borrower; or (iii)
enforcement of such judgment or judgments has not been stayed or such judgment
or judgments shall continue in effect for a period of thirty (30) consecutive
days without being vacated, discharged, satisfied or bonded pending appeal;
(48)
8.1.6. Regardless of the intent or knowledge of
Borrower, if the validity, binding nature or enforceability of any material
term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement,
any other Loan Document or in any other existing or future agreement between
Borrower and Lenders in connection with the Indebtedness shall be wrongfully
disputed by, on behalf of, or in the right or name of Borrower or if any such
material term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement shall be found or
declared to be invalid, non-binding, unenforceable or avoidable by any
governmental authority or court and the parties cannot agree upon
substitutions therefor within thirty (30) days; or
8.1.7. Borrower shall be accused of conduct in
violation of RICO which is not explained to Lenders within ten (10) days
thereafter in a manner in which Lenders, in their sole discretion, determine
that such accusation is not likely to result in a RICO indictment;

Default" under any Venture Note or the Turren Note;
8.1.9. Borrower shall have defaulted in the payment
when due of any Debt in an amount in excess of $1,000,000 and such default
shall have continued beyond any period of grace permitted with respect
thereto, unless waived,
whereupon, and in every such event,
upon the vote of Requisite Lenders Agent shall (i) by notice to Borrower,
terminate the commitments to lend pursuant to this Agreement and they shall
thereupon terminate, and (ii) without notice to Borrower, declare the Notes
(together with accrued interest thereupon) to be, and the Notes shall
thereupon become, immediately due and payable without presentment, demand,
protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by
Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon any Event of Default arising
from any of the events or circumstances described in Section 8.1.4 hereof, the
Notes shall, without any further action, become immediately due and payable
without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which
are hereby waived by Borrower.
For purposes of Sections 8.1.4, 8.1.5,
8.1.7 and 8.1.9 hereof, the term "Borrower" shall include the General Partner.
8.2. Remedies on Default.
Upon the occurrence and continuation of any Event
of Default, Agent may, subject to Article 9 hereof, and shall, in accordance
with Section 8.1 hereof, forthwith declare all Indebtedness to be immediately
due and payable, without protest, demand or other notice (which are hereby
expressly waived by Borrower) and, in addition to the rights specifically
granted hereunder or now or hereafter existing in equity, at law, by virtue of
(49)
statute or otherwise (each of which rights may be exercised at any time and
from time to time), Agent may exercise the rights and remedies available to
Lenders at law or in equity or under this Agreement, the Notes and any of the
other Loan Documents or any other agreement by, between or among Borrower and
Lenders in accordance with the respective provisions thereof.
8.3. Set-Off Rights Upon Default.
Upon and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, Lenders, in addition to any remedies set forth above, shall have the
right at any time and from time to time without notice to Borrower (to the
extent permitted by law) (any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower
and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Rules, to set off, to
exercise any banker's lien or any right of attachment or garnishment and apply
any and all balances, credits, deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final), accounts or monies at any time held by any Lender and
other indebtedness at any time owing by any Lender to or for the account of
Borrower (but excluding accounts in Borrower's name that constitute escrowed
funds or trust funds of others) against any and all Indebtedness or other
obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, the
Notes, or any other Loan Document, whether or not any Lender shall have made
any demand hereunder or thereunder. All net funds recovered under the rights
provided in this Section 8.3 shall be recovered by Lenders as agent for the
other Lenders and shall be distributed among Lenders according to their Pro
Rata Shares. Each Lender shall be an agent of all other Lenders for purposes
of rights of set-off.
8.4. Purchase of Venture Notes Upon Default.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default, Agent shall, at the instruction of Requisite Lenders,
give written notice to Borrower that an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and that Lenders require Borrower to purchase from Lenders all of
the Venture Notes and the Turren Note. Borrower shall purchase from each
Lender each of the Venture Notes and from CoreStates Bank, N.A., the Turren
Note, for a price equal to the outstanding principal balance of, and all
accrued and unpaid interest on, each Venture Note or the Turren Note, the
aggregate amount of which for all Venture Notes or the Turren Note, as
applicable (the "Purchase Price") shall be paid in immediately available funds
to Agent on or before five (5) Business Days after receipt of Agent's notice
requiring the repurchase of all Venture Notes and the Turren Note. The sale of
the Venture Notes and Turren Note shall be on an "as is" basis and, except (i)
for Lenders' ownership thereof, and (ii) that the Venture Notes or the Turren
Note, as applicable, shall be free and clear of encumbrances and other
assignments, shall be without representation or warranty of any kind, which
Lenders disclaim, including without limitation, the execution, legality,
validity, genuineness, sufficiency, value, transferability, enforceability or
collectibility of the Venture Notes or the Turren Note, as applicable, the
existence or value of any collateral therefor, and the priority of any
interests in such collateral. Upon Lenders' receipt of collected funds in the
amount of the Purchase Price, Lenders shall deliver the original Venture Notes
or the Turren Note, as applicable, to Borrower, each endorsed by the
appropriate Lender, without recourse, together with any collateral
documentation therefor appropriately assigned to Borrower.
(50)
8.5. Singular or Multiple Exercise; Non-Waiver.
The remedies provided herein, in the Notes and in
the other Loan Documents or otherwise available to Lender at law or in equity
and any warrants of attorney therein contained, shall be cumulative and
concurrent, and may be pursued singly, successively or together at the sole
discretion of Agent, and may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall
occur; and the failure to exercise any such right or remedy shall in no event
be construed as a waiver or release of the same.
9. AGENT
9.1. Appointment.
Each Lender hereby appoints CoreStates Bank, N.A.
as agent hereunder, and each Lender hereby authorizes Agent to act hereunder
and under the other instruments and agreements referred to herein (including,
without limitation, the Notes, the Mortgages, and the other Loan Documents) as
its agent hereunder and thereunder. Agent agrees to act as such upon the
express conditions contained in this Article 9 and in the Loan Documents. The
provisions of this Article 9 are solely for the benefit of Lenders; Borrower
shall not have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the
provisions hereof except with respect to the provisions requiring Borrower's
consent or that certain matters be satisfactory to Borrower. In performing its
functions and duties under this Agreement, Agent shall act solely as agent of
Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any
obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower.
9.2. Powers; General Immunity.
9.2.1. Duties Specified.
Each Lender irrevocably authorizes Agent
to take such action on such Lender's behalf and to exercise such powers
hereunder and under the other instruments and agreements referred to herein
(including, without limitation, the Loan Documents) as are specifically
delegated to Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers
as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent shall have only those duties and
responsibilities which are expressly specified in this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and Agent may perform such duties by or through its agents or
employees. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in
nature; Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary
relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement,
expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose
upon Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or the other
instruments and agreements referred to herein except as expressly set forth
herein or therein. Agent agrees promptly to transmit to Lenders any documents
which have been transmitted by Borrower to Agent for transmittal to Lenders.
Agent shall take such action as has been determined to be taken by a vote of
the applicable Lenders hereunder. In performing its duties and functions under
this Agreement and the Loan Documents, Agent will exercise the same care which
it normally exercises in making and handling loans and handling collateral in
which it alone is interested, but Agent assumes no further responsibility.
(51)
9.2.2. Powers of Agent.
9.2.2.1. In General.
Unless otherwise specifically limited by
this Section 9.2.2, Agent may take all actions hereunder on behalf of all of
the Lenders without seeking the advise or consent of any of the Lenders.
9.2.2.2. Actions Requiring Certain Votes
of Lenders.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein contained, Agent agrees that it will not, without the unanimous consent
of the Lenders, take any of the following actions whether voluntary or
involuntary pursuant to this Agreement: (i) decrease any of the rates of
interest with respect to the Loan hereunder; (ii) decrease, or postpone the
required date of payment of, any fees with respect to the Loans hereunder;
(iii) reduce the principal of the Loan; (iv) postpone the date fixed for any
payment of principal of or interest on the Loan; (v) change the definitions of
Pro Rata Shares or Requisite Lenders; (vi) amend Section 3.2 (or any defined
terms or financial covenants referenced therein) or this Section 9.2.2.2;
(vii) waive Agent's duty to record the Mortgages when required pursuant to
Section 3.2.1 hereof; (viii) release any collateral for the Loan on terms
other than as specifically provided herein; (ix) increase the Commitment
Amount, or (x) make any Advance after the occurrence of, and during the
continuation of, any Event of Default.
9.2.2.3. Actions Requiring Votes of
Requisite Lenders.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein contained, Agent agrees that it will not without the vote of the
Requisite Lenders: (i) declare any Event of Default; (ii) exercise any
remedies upon and after the occurrence of an Event of Default; or (iii)
subject to Section 9.2.2.2 hereof, amend or waive any provision of this
Agreement.
9.2.2.4. Agent's Action when Lender Fails
to Respond.
If Agent requests authority to act in a
specified manner, Agent may, at Agent's option, act as if a Lender had
approved such request if such Lender fails or refuses to respond to Agent's
request within seven (7) Business Days after receipt of Agent's written
request.
9.2.3. No Responsibility for Certain Matters.
Agent shall not be responsible to any
Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity,
enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement, the Notes or
the other Loan Documents, or for any representations, warranties, recitals or
(52)
statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statement or
in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or
any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by
Agent to Lenders or by or on behalf of Borrower to Agent or any Lender except
to the extent Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary that such
representation, warranty, recital or statement is false or incorrect, or be
required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of
the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or
therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or
possible existence of any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default or
potential Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default.
9.2.4. Exculpatory Provisions.
Agent and its officers, directors,
employees and agents shall not be liable to any Lender for any action taken or
omitted hereunder or in connection herewith (including, without limitation,
any act or omission under the Notes or the other Loan Documents) unless caused
by its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct. If Agent shall request
instructions from Lenders with respect to any act or action (including the
determination not to take an action) in connection with this Agreement, the
Notes or the other Loan Documents, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from
such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received
instructions from the Requisite Lenders or the applicable percentage of
Lenders, as the case may be. Without prejudice to the generality of the
foregoing, (i) Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected
in relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to
be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or
persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on
opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for Borrower),
accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it with the
approval of Requisite Lenders; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of
action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent's acting or (where so
instructed) refraining from acting under this Agreement, the Notes, or other
Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders or
the applicable percentage of Lenders, as the case may be. Agent shall be
entitled to refrain from exercising any power, discretion or authority vested
in it under this Agreement, the Notes, or other Loan Documents unless and
until it has obtained the instructions of the Requisite Lenders.
9.2.5. Agent Entitled to Act as Lender.
The agency hereby created shall in no way
impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or
obligations upon, Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With
respect to its granting of Loans, Agent shall have the same rights and powers
hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not
performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the terms
"Lender" or "Lenders" or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly
otherwise indicates, include Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall not be influenced to act hereunder
in a manner inconsistent with the best interests of Lenders by reason of
Agent's involvement in unrelated transactions with Borrower or with any
(53)
Affiliate of Borrower. Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend
money to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial
advisory or other business with Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower as if it
were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other
consideration from Borrower or such Affiliate for services in connection with
this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to
Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that Agent has, and may from time to time
hereafter, enter into lending arrangements with Borrower or Affiliates of
Borrower and that Borrower may grant mortgages, security interests or
otherwise encumber its assets in favor of Agent individually and not as agent
for the Lenders as collateral for such lending arrangements, which shall be
independent of the Loan hereunder, provided that Agent shall not, in
connection with any such transaction, encumber any property of Borrower that
would constitute a breach of any of Borrower's covenants under this Agreement.
9.2.6. No Responsibility for Creditworthiness.
Each Lender represents and warrants that
it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and
affairs of Borrower and the General Partner in connection with the making of
the Loans hereunder and has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal
of the creditworthiness of Borrower. Agent shall not have any duty or
responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such
investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or, except as
expressly provided in this Agreement, to provide any Lender with any credit or
other information with respect thereto whether coming into its possession
before the making of Loans or any time or times thereafter, and Agent shall
further have no responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the
completeness of the information provided to Lenders.
(54)
9.2.7. Right to Indemnity.
Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify
Agent, its officers, directors, employees and agents, proportionately to its
Pro Rata Share and to the extent Agent shall not have been reimbursed by
Borrower, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including,
without limitation, counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any
kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against Agent in performing its duties hereunder or in any way relating to or
arising out of this Agreement, except in its capacity as a Lender; provided
that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct; and provided further that Agent shall not be entitled to be
indemnified hereunder for amounts paid by Agent in settlement of litigation
prior to final judgment unless such settlement shall be consented to by
Requisite Lenders. If any indemnity furnished to Agent for any purpose shall,
in the opinion of Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Agent may call
for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts
indemnified against (other than acts constituting Agent's obligations to
Lenders hereunder) until such additional indemnity is furnished.
9.2.8. Resignation; Removal; Successor Agent.
9.2.8.1. Agent may resign from the
performance of all its functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving 45
Business Days' prior written notice to Borrower and Lenders. Agent may be
removed at any time with cause by a notice or concurrent notices in writing
delivered to Borrower and Agent and signed by all Lenders other than Agent.
Such resignation or removal shall take effect upon the acceptance by a
successor Agent pursuant to subsections 9.2.8.2 and 9.2.8.3.
9.2.8.2. Upon any such notice of
resignation or removal, Lenders upon the vote of the Requisite Lenders shall
have the right to appoint a successor Agent which shall be a Lender, or such
other Person as is satisfactory to Borrower. Such successor agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring or removed Agent, and the retiring or removed Agent
shall be discharged from all its duties and obligations as Agent under this
Agreement (except as otherwise provided herein).
9.2.8.3. If a successor Agent shall not
have been so appointed within said 45 Business Day period, a resigning (but
not a removed) Agent, with the consent of Borrower, shall then appoint a
successor Agent, which shall be a commercial bank with capital and surplus of
not less than $5,000,000,000 who shall serve as Agent until such time, if any,
as the Requisite Lenders, with the consent of Borrower, appoint a successor
Agent as provided above.
(55)
9.2.8.4. If at the time of Agent's
resignation or removal pursuant to this Section 9.2.8 Agent's Pro-Rata Share
exceeds 33-1/3%, the term "Requisite Lenders," for purposes of this Section
9.2.8 only, shall mean either (i) Lenders whose aggregate Pro Rata Shares
equal or exceed 66.67% or (ii) all Lenders other than Agent.
9.3. Sharing of Recoveries.
Lenders hereby agree that all sums recovered (and
the proceeds of all property recovered) from Borrower by any Lender hereunder,
whether as a result of the enforcement of any Mortgage or other Loan Document
or on foreclosure of any banker's or other lien or any setoff or other claim
on or against any deposit or other balance of Borrower held by any Lender,
shall be on behalf of Lenders and shall be shared by Lenders according to
their respective Pro Rata Shares. If a Lender shall make any recovery, it will
promptly remit to the other Lenders their Pro Rata Shares thereof. No Lender's
Pro Rata Share shall have priority over any other Lender's Pro Rata Share.
9.4 Ratable Sharing.
Each Lender and each subsequent holder by
acceptance of a Note agree among themselves that with respect to all amounts
received by them which are applicable to the payment of or reduction of a
proportion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with respect
to the Notes held by the Lender or holder, which is greater than the
proportion received by any other holder of a Note in respect to the aggregate
amount of principal and interest due with respect to the Notes held by it, or
any other amount payable hereunder, that the Lender or holder of a Note
receiving such proportionately greater payments shall notify each other Lender
and the Agent of such receipt and remit to them such amounts as are necessary
so that all such recoveries of principal and interest with respect to the
Notes shall be proportionate to the Lenders' respective Pro Rata Shares. If
any Lender or holder of a Note receiving such proportionately greater payments
is required to return such proportionately greater payment to any trustee,
receiver or other representative of or for Borrower upon or by reason of the
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or dissolution of any entity comprising
Borrower, then such other Lender(s) which received its or their Pro Rata Share
of such proportionately greater payment must also return such amounts to
Borrower as if such payment or payments from the Lender receiving such
proportionately greater payments had not been made.
10. MISCELLANEOUS
10.1 Integration.
This Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan
Documents shall be construed as one agreement, and in the event of any
inconsistency, the provisions of the Notes shall control over the provision of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the provisions of this
(56)

Borrower that shall not unreasonably be withheld, delayed or conditioned,

arrangements may grant to the participant the right to approve (i) any
decrease in the rates of interest payable by Borrower with respect to the
Loans, (ii) any change of the final maturity of the Loans that is not
otherwise provided herein, and (iii) any change in the Commitment Amount.
10.10.2. Concurrently with any assignment by a
Lender pursuant to Section 10.10.1 hereof, the assigning Lender shall deliver
to Agent and Borrower a copy of the assignment instrument and shall pay to
Agent an assignment fee of $3,500. Borrower, upon request of Agent, shall
promptly execute and deliver to Agent replacement Notes, reflecting the
then-current Pro Rata Shares of each Lender, including the assignee Lender,
which replacement Notes shall be delivered to each Lender upon surrender to
Agent of Borrower's prior Note in favor of such Lender. Promptly after receipt
of each of such prior Notes, Agent shall xxxx the same "Replaced" and return
it to Borrower.
10.11. Conflicts Between Instruments.
In the event of any conflict between the provisions
of this Agreement and the provisions of any Note or any other Loan Document
(including, without limitation any provisions with respect to the delivery of
notice of default and the granting of any opportunity to cure) the provisions
of this Agreement shall prevail, notwithstanding any provision in any other
document to the effect that such other document shall be deemed controlling,
except that the provisions of the Notes shall control over the provisions of
this Agreement. Any Event of Default by Borrower hereunder shall, after the
granting of such notice and expiration of any grace period as may be herein
contained, constitute an event of default under the Notes and the Mortgages,
without regard for any requirement for notice or opportunity to cure contained
in the Notes or the Mortgages.
10.12. Excess Payments.
If Borrower shall pay any interest under the terms
of the Notes at a rate higher than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law,
then such excess payment shall be credited against outstanding Advances as
directed by Borrower unless Borrower notifies Lenders in writing to return the
excess payment to Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Agreement, crediting the excess payments hereunder as a payment of
principal shall not trigger the application of any prepayment penalties that
might otherwise apply to a prepayment of principal hereunder.
10.13. Partial Invalidity.
(61)
If any provision of this Agreement shall for any
reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, but this
Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had
never been contained herein.
10.14. Compliance with Rules.
Lenders shall not be required by operation or
effect of any provision of this Agreement to violate any statute or regulation
under state or federal law, including all Rules.
10.15. Headings.
The heading of any Article or Section contained in
this Agreement is for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to
amplify, limit, modify or give full notice of the provisions thereof.
10.16. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be signed in counterparts each
of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall
constitute one and the same agreement.
10.17. Retention of Documents.
Unless otherwise provided herein, any documents,
schedules, or other papers delivered to Agent on behalf of Lenders or to any
Lender may be destroyed or otherwise disposed of by Agent or such Lender six
months after they are delivered to or received by Agent or such Lender, unless
Borrower requests the return of such documents, schedules, invoices or other
papers and makes arrangements, at Borrower's expense, for their return.
10.18. Time of the Essence.
Time is the essence of this Agreement and of each
of the Loan Documents.
10.19. Future Development Loans.
The parties contemplate that Borrower shall, from
time to time prior to the Termination Date, deliver to Agent requests to
provide construction financing for projects to be undertaken by Borrower, by a
Venture, or by an entity in which Borrower, directly or indirectly, has a
substantial interest. Agent shall review such requests in its absolute
discretion, and in no event shall Agent be required to approve any such
request. If Agent does approve a request for such construction financing and
the owner and developer of the project is either Borrower, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Borrower or a Venture in which Borrower, directly of indirectly,
(62)
is the managing partner or has the ability control the placing of such
construction financing, Agent shall present such request to each of the
Lenders, all of which shall have the right, but not the obligation, to be part
of the lending group for such loan. If the proposed developer of the project
that is the subject of the financing request is not Borrower or an entity
described in the preceding sentence, the request may be presented by Agent to
fewer than all of Lenders, as Borrower may determine. If any Lender to which
Agent presents a financing request pursuant to this Section determines not to
participate in the lending group, Agent may, with the consent of Borrower not
to be unreasonably withheld, include in such lending group financial
institutions that are not a Lender. Nothing in this Section shall obligate any
Lender to provide credit to Borrower or any other Person, other than the
Facility.
10.20. Name of General Partner.
The name and designation Pennsylvania Real Estate
Investment Trust is the designation of the Trustees from time to time under
the Trust Agreement as amended
(63)
and restated as of September 29, 1997 and all persons dealing with the
Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust must look solely to the Trust
property for the enforcement of any claims against the Pennsylvania Real
Estate Investment Trust, as neither the Trustees, officers, agents or
shareholders of the Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust assume any
personal liability for obligations entered into by the Pennsylvania Real
Estate Investment Trust by reason of their status as said Trustee, officer,
agent or shareholder.
10.21. Counterpart Execution.
This Agreement may be executed in multiple
counterparts, and when each of the named parties hereto has executed such
counterpart copies hereof, such shall constitute a single agreement among such
parties.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower, Agent and Lenders have executed this
Agreement under seal, intending to be legally bound hereby, as of the day and
year first above written.
