(d)            Borrower shall not permit Senior Borrower or Holdco, without the prior consent of Lender, to further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Account Collateral or permit any Lien or encumbrance to attach thereto (other than the security interest and right of set off in favor of Lockbox Bank as set forth in the Lockbox Agreement or arising under applicable law), or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 Financing Statements, except those naming Lender and Senior Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.

Section 2.7     Withholding Taxes.

(a)            Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Section 2.7 Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of Borrower) requires the deduction or withholding of any Section 2.7 Tax from any such payment by Borrower, then Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Section 2.7 Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.7) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)            Payment of Other Taxes by Xxxxxxxx. Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes.

(c)            Indemnification by Xxxxxxxx. Borrower shall indemnify Lender, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)            Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Section 2.7 Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.7, Borrower shall deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.

(e)            Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Section 2.7 Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by Xxxxxxxx, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Xxxxxxxx, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower as will enable Borrower to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.7(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii)            Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Xxxxxxxx is a U.S. Borrower,

(A)            any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B)            any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)            in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Section 2.7 Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Section 2.7 Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2)            executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3)            in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(4)            to the extent a Foreign Lender is a partnership or is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2 or Exhibit B-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)            any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D)            if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Xxxxxx has complied with such Xxxxxx’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f)            Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Section 2.7 Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.7 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.7), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Section 2.7 Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Section 2.7 Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Section 2.7 Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Section 2.7 Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Section 2.7 Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(g)            Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.7 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.7, Borrower shall not be obligated to pay pursuant to this Section 2.7, and Lender shall not be entitled to claim compensation pursuant to this Section 2.7, for any amounts which were incurred or which accrued more than ninety (90) days before the date Lender notified Borrower of the circumstance on which such claim of compensation is based and delivered to Borrower a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the amounts payable by Borrower under this Section 2.7.

Section 2.8     Intentionally Omitted.

ARTICLE III – INTENTIONALLY OMITTED

ARTICLE IV– REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 4.1     Borrower Representations. Borrower represents and warrants as of the date hereof and, subject to Section 2.1.2(d), as of the Funding Date that:

4.1.1            Organization. Each of Borrower and each Individual Senior Borrower has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing with requisite power and authority to own the related Individual Property (with respect to Senior Borrower), the Collateral (with respect to Borrower) and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged. Each of Borrower and each Individual Senior Borrower is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where it is required by Legal Requirements to be so qualified in connection with its businesses and operations. Each of Borrower and each Individual Senior Borrower possesses all rights, licenses, permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to entitle it to own the related Individual Property (with respect to Senior Borrower), the Collateral (with respect to Borrower) and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged, except where the failure to so possess the same would not reasonably be expected to have an Individual Material Adverse Effect. The ownership interests in Borrower and each Individual Senior Borrower and U.S. federal income tax classification are as set forth on the organizational chart attached hereto as Schedule 4.1.1.

4.1.2            Proceedings. Xxxxxxxx has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. This Agreement and such other Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of Borrower and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

4.1.3            No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party by Borrower will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property or assets of Borrower or any Individual Senior Borrower pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, partnership agreement, management agreement or other material agreement or instrument to which Borrower or an Individual Senior Borrower is a party or by which any of the Individual Properties, the Collateral or their other property or assets is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Borrower, Senior Borrower or any of their properties or assets, and any consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court or any such Governmental Authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect.

4.1.4            Litigation. Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.1.4 attached hereto and except for the PPD Dispute, there are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority or other agency now pending or, to Borrower’s knowledge, threatened (in writing) against or affecting Borrower, Senior Borrower, Guarantor, the Collateral or any Individual Property, which actions, suits or proceedings, if determined against Borrower, Senior Borrower, Guarantor, the Collateral or any Individual Property, would reasonably be likely to result in an Individual Material Adverse Effect. Xxxxxxxx is not involved in any dispute with any taxing authority, except with respect to any real estate tax valuation that is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings by Xxxxxxxx, in each case, as described on Schedule 4.1.4 hereto.

4.1.5            Agreements. Following the transactions contemplated to be effected in connection with the Distribution, neither Borrower nor Senior Borrower is a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any restriction which, absent a default thereunder, would be reasonably likely to result in an Individual Material Adverse Effect. Neither Borrower nor Senior Borrower is in default in any material respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which Borrower, Senior Borrower, the Collateral or any Individual Property is bound that would be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Borrower nor any Senior Borrower nor Guarantor has any material financial obligation under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower, Senior Borrower or Guarantor is a party or by which Borrower, Senior Borrower, Guarantor, the Collateral or the Properties are otherwise bound, other than, (a) obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the operation of the Properties as permitted pursuant to clause (xxiii) of the definition of “Special Purpose Entity” set forth in Section 1.1 hereof, (b) obligations under the Loan Documents (with respect to Borrower) and obligations under the Senior Loan Documents (with respect to Senior Borrower), (c) obligations under Permitted Encumbrances, (d) as disclosed in the most recent financial statements delivered to Lender, or (e) as disclosed on Schedule 4.1.5 attached hereto.

4.1.6            Title. Each Individual Senior Borrower has good, marketable and insurable fee simple or leasehold estate title, as applicable, to the real property comprising part of its applicable Individual Property and good title to the balance of the such Individual Property, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Encumbrances (as such term is defined in the Senior Loan Agreement), such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Senior Loan Documents and the Liens created by the Senior Loan Documents. The Permitted Encumbrances (as such term is defined in the Senior Loan Agreement) with respect to each Individual Property in the aggregate would not be reasonably likely to result in an Individual Material Adverse Effect. To Borrower’s knowledge, except for Permitted Encumbrances, there are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Properties which are or may become a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Senior Loan Documents. Xxxxxxxx has no knowledge of any information which the Title Company could raise as a defense to Senior Xxxxxxxx’s recovery of a claim under the Title Insurance Policy (as defined in the Senior Loan). Borrower owns the Collateral free and clear of all Liens whatsoever (other than Permitted Encumbrances). The Pledge Agreement, together with any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements relating to the applicable Pledged Collateral when properly filed in the appropriate records and the delivery of the certificates evidencing such interests to Lender in the State of New York, will create a valid, first priority, perfected security interest in the Pledged Collateral, all in accordance with the terms thereof. The REIT / TRS Pledge Agreement, together with any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements relating to the applicable REIT / TRS Pledged Collateral when properly filed in the appropriate records, will create a valid, perfected second priority security interest in the REIT / TRS Pledged Collateral, all in accordance with the terms thereof.

4.1.7            Solvency. Borrower has (a) not entered into this transaction or executed the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor and (b) received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under such Loan Documents. Giving effect to the Loan and the Loan Documents, (i) the sum of Borrower’s assets, at fair valuation, is and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, be greater than the sum of Borrower’s debts (including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities), at fair valuation, and (ii) the fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, exceed Xxxxxxxx’s total liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities. Borrower’s assets do not and, immediately following the making of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur debt and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debt and liabilities as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by Borrower and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower). No Bankruptcy Action has been commenced by or against any Borrower Party or any constituent Person in the last seven (7) years. No Borrower Party nor, to Xxxxxxxx’s knowledge, any of their constituent Persons are contemplating either the commencement of a Bankruptcy Action or the liquidation of all or a major portion of such Person’s assets or property, and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the commencement of a Bankruptcy Action against any Borrower Party or such constituent Persons. For purposes of this Section 4.1.7, the term “constituent Person” shall not include any direct or indirect holders of equity interests that are publicly traded on a nationally or internationally recognized exchange.

4.1.8            Full and Accurate Disclosure. No statement of fact made by Borrower in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which such statements were made. There is no material fact presently known to Borrower which has not been disclosed to Lender which would be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

4.1.9            ERISA.

(a)            Generally. Each of Borrower, Guarantor and their ERISA Affiliates is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other applicable law relating to any “employee benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(3)  of ERISA. Neither Borrower nor Guarantor has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any material liability for a non-exempt Prohibited Transaction (as such term is defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code). No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that could result in a Material Adverse Effect. With respect to each Foreign Plan, and except as would not be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (i) any employer and employee contributions required by law or by the terms of any Foreign Plan have been made, or, if applicable, accrued, in accordance with applicable law and normal accounting practices, (ii) the fair market value of the assets of each funded Foreign Plan, the liability of each insurer for any Foreign Plan funded through insurance or the book reserve established for any Foreign Plan, together with any accrued contributions, is sufficient to procure or provide for the accrued benefit obligations, as of the date hereof, with respect to all current and former participants in such Foreign Plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuations most recently used to account for such obligations in accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting principles, and (iii) each Foreign Plan that is required to be registered has been registered and has been maintained in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities.

(b)            Plan Assets; Prohibited Transactions. No Borrower Party or Guarantor is, and neither shall become an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” within the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulation. No Borrower Party or Guarantor is a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA and transactions by or with Borrower or Guarantor are not subject to any state or other statute, regulation or other restriction regulating investments of, or fiduciary obligations with respect to, governmental plans within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA which is similar to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”). Assuming the Lender does not fund any portion of the borrowings hereunder with “plan assets” as determined under the Plan Asset Regulation, the execution of this Agreement, the making of the Loan and the other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, including but not limited to the exercise by the Lender of its rights under the Loan Documents, are not and will not give rise to a nonexempt Prohibited Transaction within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and are not prohibited or otherwise restricted by Similar Law.

4.1.10            Compliance. Except as expressly set forth in the zoning reports or physical condition reports delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date, Borrower, Senior Borrower and the Properties and the use thereof comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements, including, without limitation, building and zoning ordinances and codes, except to the extent where the failure to comply with respect to any Individual Property would not be reasonably likely to result in an Individual Material Adverse Effect. Neither Borrower nor Senior Borrower is in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority, the default or violation of which with respect to any Individual Property would be reasonably likely to result in an Individual Material Adverse Effect. There has not been committed by Xxxxxxxx or, to Xxxxxxxx’s knowledge, any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the Individual Properties, any act or omission affording the federal government or any other Governmental Authority the right of forfeiture as against the Collateral or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrower’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents.

4.1.11            Financial Information. All financial data, including, without limitation, the statements of cash flow and income and operating expense, that have been delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan (a) are true, complete and correct in all material respects, (b) accurately represent in all material respects the financial condition of Borrower, the Collateral and the Properties, as applicable, as of the date of such reports, and (c) to the extent prepared or audited by an independent certified public accounting firm, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP throughout the periods covered, except as disclosed therein. Except for Permitted Encumbrances or as otherwise disclosed on the most recent financial statements delivered to Lender or on Schedule 4.1.5 hereto, neither Borrower nor Senior Borrower nor Guarantor has any contingent liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments that are known to Borrower or Senior Borrower and reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Since the date of such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, operations or business of Borrower or Senior Borrower (taken as a whole) from that set forth in said financial statements.

4.1.12            Condemnation. No Condemnation or other similar proceeding has been commenced or, to Xxxxxxxx’s knowledge, is threatened in writing with respect to all or any portion of any Individual Property or for the relocation of roadways providing access to any Individual Property.

4.1.13            Federal Reserve Regulations. No part of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose which would be inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other Regulations of such Board of Governors, or for any purposes prohibited by Legal Requirements or by the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

4.1.14            Utilities and Public Access. Except as set forth in the title commitments received by Lender prior to the Closing Date, Title Insurance Policies or the surveys of the Individual Properties delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date, (i) each Individual Property has rights of access to public ways and is served by water, sewer, sanitary sewer and storm drain facilities adequate to service such Individual Property for its respective intended uses and (ii) all public utilities necessary or convenient to the full use and enjoyment of each Individual Property are located either in the public right of way abutting such Individual Property (which are connected so as to serve such Individual Property without passing over other property) or in recorded easements serving such Individual Property and such easements are set forth in and insured (or will, following the Funding Date, be insured) by the related Title Insurance Policy. All roads necessary for the use of each Individual Property for its current respective purposes have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all Governmental Authorities.

4.1.15            Not a Foreign Person. Neither Borrower nor Senior Borrower is a “foreign person” within the meaning of §1445(f)(3) of the Code.

4.1.16            Separate Lots. Except as set forth in the title commitments received by Lender prior to the Closing Date or the Title Insurance Policies delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date, each Individual Property is comprised of one (1) or more parcels which constitute a separate tax lot or lots and does not constitute a portion of any other tax lot not a part of such Individual Property.

4.1.17            Assessments. Except as set forth in the title commitments received by Lender prior to the Closing Date or the Title Insurance Policies delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date, (i) there are no pending or proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or otherwise affecting any Individual Property or the Collateral, nor (ii) are there any contemplated improvements to any Individual Property that may result in such special or other assessments.

4.1.18            Enforceability. The Loan Documents are enforceable by Lender (or any subsequent holder thereof) in accordance with their respective terms, subject to principles of equity and bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws generally applicable to creditors’ rights and the enforcement of debtors’ obligations. The Loan Documents are not subject to any right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense by Borrower or Guarantor, including the defense of usury, nor would the operation of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Loan Documents unenforceable (subject to principles of equity and bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and the enforcement of debtors’ obligations), and neither Borrower nor Guarantor has asserted any right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense with respect thereto.

4.1.19            No Prior Assignment. There are no prior assignments by Senior Borrower of the Leases or any portion of the Rents due and payable or to become due and payable which are presently outstanding.

4.1.20            Insurance. Borrower has obtained (or caused Senior Borrower to obtain) and has delivered to Lender certified copies of (or certificates evidencing) the Policies reflecting the insurance coverages, amounts and other requirements set forth in this Agreement. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.1.20 attached hereto, no material claims have been made or are currently pending, outstanding or otherwise remain unsatisfied under any such Policy, and neither Borrower, Senior Borrower nor, to Borrower’s knowledge, any other Person, has knowingly done, by act or omission, anything which would materially impair the coverage of any such Policy.

4.1.21            Use of Property. Each Individual Property is used exclusively for office and related commercial purposes and other appurtenant and related uses.

4.1.22            Certificate of Occupancy; Licenses. Except as disclosed in the zoning reports delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date, to Borrower’s knowledge, all certifications, permits, licenses and approvals, including without limitation, certificates of completion and occupancy permits, required for the legal use, occupancy and operation of each Individual Property have been obtained and are in full force and effect, except where the failure to obtain, or maintain in full force and effect, the same would not be reasonably likely to result in an Individual Material Adverse Effect. The use being made of each Individual Property is in conformity with the certificate of occupancy issued for such Individual Property.

4.1.23            Flood Zone. Except as disclosed in the Surveys delivered to Lender or in the flood determination obtained by Lender prior to the Closing Date, none of the Improvements on any Individual Property are located in an area as identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards, or, if so located, the flood insurance required pursuant to Section 6.1(a)(i) is in full force and effect with respect to such Individual Property.

4.1.24            Physical Condition. Except as disclosed in the property condition reports delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date, (i) each Individual Property, including, without limitation, all buildings, improvements, parking facilities, sidewalks, storm drainage systems, roofs, plumbing systems, HVAC systems, fire protection systems, electrical systems, equipment, elevators, exterior sidings and doors, landscaping, irrigation systems and all structural components, are in good condition, order and repair in all material respects; (ii) to Borrower’s knowledge, there exists no structural or other material defects or damages in any Individual Property, whether latent or otherwise, other than those that would not be reasonably likely to result in an Individual Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) neither Borrower nor Senior Borrower has received notice from any insurance company or bonding company of any defects or inadequacies in any Individual Property, or any part thereof, which would adversely affect the insurability of the same or cause the imposition of extraordinary premiums or charges thereon or of any termination or threatened termination of any policy of insurance or bond.

5.1.1            Existence; Compliance with Legal Requirements. Borrower shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to (a) preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its (i) existence and (ii) any material rights, licenses, permits and franchises and (b) subject to such Borrower’s right to contest such Legal Requirements in accordance with this Section 5.1.1, comply, and cause Senior Borrower to comply, in all material respects with all Legal Requirements applicable to it, the Collateral and the Properties, including, without limitation, building and zoning codes and certificates of occupancy. There shall never be committed by Xxxxxxxx, and Borrower shall never knowingly permit any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the Properties or Collateral to commit any act or omission affording the federal government or any state or local government the right of forfeiture against the Collateral, any Individual Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrower’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents. Borrower hereby covenants and agrees not to commit, knowingly permit or knowingly suffer to exist any act or omission affording such right of forfeiture.

Lender may apply any such security, as necessary to cause compliance with such Legal Requirement at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the validity, applicability or violation of such Legal Requirement is finally established and Borrower does not timely comply therewith, or cause Senior Borrower to comply therewith, or any Individual Property (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in imminent danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost.

Lender may pay over any such cash deposit or part thereof held by Lender to the claimant entitled thereto at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the entitlement of such claimant is established and Borrower (or Senior Borrower) has not timely paid the same or the Collateral or any Individual Property (or part thereof or interest therein) shall be in imminent danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost or there shall be any imminent danger of the Lien of the Pledge Agreement being primed by any related Lien. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent any such Taxes and Other Charges are actually paid directly by Tenant prior to delinquency, the obligations of Borrower hereunder to pay, or cause Senior Borrower to pay, the same shall be deemed satisfied.

(b)            If Ground Lease Senior Borrower shall be in default under the Ground Lease, then, subject to the terms of the Ground Lease (taken together with the estoppel delivered by the Ground Lessor in connection with the Loan) and subject to the rights of Senior Lender under the Senior Loan Documents, Borrower shall cause Ground Lease Senior Borrower to grant Lender the right (but not the obligation), to cause the default or defaults under such Ground Lease to be remedied and otherwise exercise any and all rights of Ground Lease Senior Borrower under the Ground Lease, as may be necessary to prevent or cure any default, and, subject to the rights of Tenants under Leases and the right of Senior Lender under the Senior Loan Documents, Lender shall have the right to enter all or any portion of the Ground Leased Property at such times and in such manner as Lender deems necessary, to prevent or to cure any such default.

All sums expended by Lender to cure any such default shall be paid by Borrower to Lender, within ten (10) Business Days following written demand, with interest on such sum at the rate set forth in this Agreement from the date expended to and including the date the reimbursement payment is made to Lender.

Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a copy of any such written notice of default.

(e)            Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of written demand by Xxxxxx (but no more often than once in any calendar year so long as no Event of Default is then continuing), Ground Lease Senior Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from Ground Lessor under each Ground Lease and furnish to Lender the estoppel certificate of Ground Lessor stating the date through which rent has been paid and whether or not there are any defaults thereunder and specifying the nature of such claimed defaults, if any.

(f)            Borrower shall cause Ground Lease Senior Borrower to promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver to Lender such instruments as may be required to permit Lender to, subject to the rights of Senior Lender under the Senior Loan Documents, cure any default under any Ground Lease or permit Lender to take such other action required to enable Lender to cure or remedy the matter in default and preserve the security interest of Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to the Ground Leased Property, in each case, to the extent the same is permitted pursuant to the Ground Lease and so long as the same does not increase Borrower’s obligations or decrease Borrower’s rights under the Loan Documents to more than a de minimis extent. Borrower irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to do, in its name or otherwise, during the continuance of an Event of Default and subject in all events to the rights of Senior Lender under the Senior Loan Documents, any and all acts and to execute any and all documents that are necessary to preserve any rights of Ground Lease Senior Borrower under or with respect to the Ground Lease, including, without limitation, the right to effectuate any extension or renewal of the Ground Lease, or to preserve any rights of Senior Borrower whatsoever in respect of any part of the Ground Lease (and the above powers granted to Lender are coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable).

(g)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement with respect to each Ground Lease, to the extent permitted by Legal Requirements:

Any such election made without Xxxxxx’s prior written consent shall be void.

(iii)            Subject to the rights of Senior Lender under the Senior Loan Documents, as security for the Debt, Borrower shall cause the Ground Lease Senior Borrower to unconditionally assign, transfer and set over to Lender all of Ground Lease Borrower’s claims and rights to the payment of damages arising from any rejection by the lessor under the Ground Lease under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Insolvency Law. Subject to the rights of Senior Lender under the Senior Loan Documents, Lender and Ground Lease Senior Borrower shall proceed jointly or in the name of Ground Lease Senior Borrower in respect of any claim, suit, action or proceeding relating to the rejection of the Ground Lease, including, without limitation, the right to file and prosecute any proofs of claim, complaints, motions, applications, notices and other documents in any case in respect of lessor under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Insolvency Law. This assignment constitutes a present, irrevocable and unconditional assignment of the foregoing claims, rights and remedies, and shall continue in effect until all of the Debt shall have been satisfied and discharged in full or the Ground Lease Property shall be released from the Lien of the Senior Loan Documents. Any amounts received by Lender or Ground Lease Senior Borrower as damages arising out of the rejection of the Ground Lease as aforesaid shall be applied to all reasonably out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Lender (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and costs) incurred in connection with the exercise of any of its rights or remedies in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement.

(iv)            If, pursuant to Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code or the comparable provisions of any other Insolvency Law, Ground Lease Senior Borrower seeks to offset, against the rent reserved in the Ground Lease, the amount of any damages caused by the nonperformance by the lessor of any of its obligations thereunder after the rejection by lessor of the Ground Lease under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Insolvency Law, then Borrower shall not permit Ground Lease Senior Borrower to effect any offset of the amounts so objected to by Lender. If Xxxxxx has failed to object as aforesaid within ten (10) days after notice from Borrower in accordance with the first sentence of this Subsection, Ground Lease Senior Borrower may proceed to offset the amounts set forth in Borrower’s notice.

(v)            If any action, proceeding, motion or notice shall be commenced or filed in respect of any lessor of all or any part of the Ground Leased Property in connection with any case under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable Insolvency Law, Lender and Borrower shall cooperatively conduct and control any such litigation with counsel agreed upon between Borrower and Lender in connection with such litigation. Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days following written demand, pay to Lender all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and costs)  incurred in connection with the cooperative prosecution or conduct of any such proceedings. All such costs and expenses shall be secured by the lien of the related Pledge Agreement until paid.

(vi)            Borrower shall notify Lender of any filing by or against the lessor under the Ground Lease of a petition under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Insolvency Law, setting forth any information available to Borrower as to the date of such filing, the court in which such petition was filed, and the relief sought in such filing.

This provision shall apply to every Transfer regardless of whether voluntary or not, or whether or not Lender has consented to any previous Transfer.

(xxiii)          if, at any time after the CTB Effective Date, Borrower is not treated as a corporation (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a REIT) for U.S. federal income tax purposes or Borrower is treated as a QRS; or

(xxiv)          if there shall occur an “Event of Default” with respect to the Senior Loan in accordance with the Senior Loan Documents.

(b)            Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance (other than an Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above) and at any time thereafter that such Event of Default is continuing, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Collateral, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents against Borrower and the Collateral, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above, the Debt and Other Obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section 8.2       Remedies. (a)  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents with respect to the Collateral. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Xxxxxxxx agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing, but subject to Legal Requirements (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the Collateral, the Pledge Agreement and the other Security Documents have been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.

(b)            With respect to Borrower and the Collateral, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to the Collateral for the satisfaction of any of the Debt, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the Collateral, or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Pledge Agreement or other Security Documents in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Pledge Agreement or other Security Documents then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose one or more of the Pledge Agreement or other Security Documents to recover such delinquent payments or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose one or more of the Pledge Agreement or other Security Documents to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Pledge Agreement or other Security Documents as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Collateral and the Borrower shall remain subject to the Pledge Agreement or other Security Documents to secure payment of sums secured by the Pledge Agreement or other Security Documents and not previously recovered.

(c)            Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, pledge agreements and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder; provided, that (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loan immediately following such severance shall equal the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to such severance, (ii) the weighted average interest rate of the Loan immediately following such severance shall equal the weighted interest rate of the Loan immediately prior to such severance (for clarity, the weighted average interest rate may subsequently change due to (1) the application of funds during the continuance of an Event of Default, and (2) the application of Net Liquidation Proceeds after Debt Service; and (iii) such Severed Loan Documents shall not materially adversely affect Borrower or any other Borrower Party or increase any of the obligations or decrease any of the rights of Borrower or such Borrower Party under the Loan Documents, other than by a de minimis amount. In connection with any such severance during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Xxxxxx, a severance agreement and such other documents as Xxxxxx shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower by Xxxxxx of Xxxxxx’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower shall be obligated to pay any reasonable out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents and the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date and the Funding Date.

Section 8.3       Remedies Cumulative; Waivers. The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the other Security Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Xxxxxx’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Xxxxxx’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

ARTICLE IX – SPECIAL PROVISIONS

Section 9.1       Loan Bifurcation.

9.1.1            Component Note. (a)  Borrower hereby ratifies the provisions of Section 9.1.1 of the Senior Loan Agreement and shall cause Senior Borrower to comply with all applicable provisions thereof which provisions are hereby incorporated by reference with the same force and effect as if set forth herein in their entirety. Without in any way limiting Lender’s other rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including Lender’s rights under Section 9.2 hereof), but subject the terms of this Section 9.1, Lender shall have the right, at any time and in its sole and absolute discretion, to require Borrower to execute and deliver new component notes (including senior and junior notes) to replace the Note or modify the Note to reflect multiple components of the Loan, which notes may be paid in such order of priority as may be designated by Lender, and which notes may have varying principal amounts, interest rates and economic terms and Lender shall have the right to allocate the collateral securing the Loan amount the various Note and new component notes in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, the right to create one or more new mezzanine loans or securitize all or any portion of the Loan); provided that such component notes and such allocation of the collateral shall not modify (i) the weighted average interest rate payable under the Note (except that the weighted average interest rate may subsequently change due to (1) the application of funds following an Event of Default, and (2) the application of Net Liquidation Proceeds after Debt Service), (ii) the stated maturity of the Note, (iii) the aggregate amortization of principal of the Note, (iv) any other material economic term of the Loan (including, but not limited to the amount and requirement to pay the Exit Fee), or (v) decrease the time periods during which Borrower is permitted to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents. Subject to the terms of this Section 9.1, Borrower shall reasonably cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to establish the component notes and shall execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered, such documents as shall be reasonably required by Lender in connection therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender (including, without limitation, causing Guarantor to reaffirm the Guaranty, executing and delivering an amendment to any Pledge Agreement to cause same to be two (2) or more separate substitute Pledge Agreements in the aggregate principal amount of up to the total Loan amount, to reapportion the lien of the Pledge Agreements among such separate substitute Pledge Agreements, pari passu or otherwise, or the severance of other security documents, executing a pledge of the direct or indirect membership interests in Borrower in connection with any new mezzanine loan, and to amend Borrower’s organizational structure to provide for one or more new mezzanine borrowers) provided that (I) modifications shall be made to this Agreement to account for the exercise of the rights under this Section 9.1 as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion, including, but not limited to, (x) the inclusion of a requirement that any voluntary prepayments made by Borrower (not relating to the application of Net Liquidation Proceeds after Debt Service or otherwise made following an Event of Default) be applied pro rata as among any components and any other loan created hereunder and (y) any new mezzanine loan is cross-defaulted with the Loan, (II) intentionally omitted, (III) the loan documents for any new loan hereunder shall include the same protections with respect to recourse as are set forth in Section 9.3 and (IV) with respect to any new mezzanine loan or loan secured by the direct or indirect equity interests in Borrower, any Loan Documents to which Guarantor is a party shall be adjusted to relieve Guarantor from any obligations or liabilities in substantially the same circumstances as in the event of the exercise of certain remedies under the Loan Documents. Xxxxxxxx hereby further agrees, promptly after demand therefor from Lender, to cause opinions of counsel to Borrower in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender with respect to such substitute notes, amendments and/or replacements to be delivered to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead, exercisable by Xxxxxx only following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to establish the component notes as described in this Section 9.1.1, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until five (5) Business Days after notice has been given to Borrower by Xxxxxx of Xxxxxx’s intent to exercise its rights under such power.

(b)            All costs and expenses of Borrower and any of its Affiliates incurred in order to comply with Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 on or prior to the Funding Date shall be borne by Borrower. All costs and expenses of Borrower and any of its Affiliates incurred in order to comply with Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 after the Funding Date shall be borne by Xxxxxx (other than Borrower’s attorneys’ fees and expenses).

(c)            At the request of Lender, Borrower shall or shall cause Senior Borrower to use reasonable efforts to provide information not in the possession of Lender or which may be reasonably required by Lender or take other actions reasonably required by Xxxxxx, in each case in order to satisfy the market standards to which Lender customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required by prospective investors and/or purchasers of any direct or indirect interest in the Loan, or as may be required by Legal Requirements, provided that, in each case, such information is in Borrower’s possession or control or can be produced without undue burden or cost. Lender shall have the right to provide to prospective investors and/or purchaser any information in its possession, including, without limitation, financial statements relating to Borrower, Senior Borrower, Guarantor, Manager, the Property and any Tenant, so long as Lender notifies such prospective investors and/or purchasers of the confidential nature thereof. Borrower acknowledges that certain information regarding the Loan and the parties thereto and the Property may be included in a private placement memorandum, prospectus or other disclosure documents. Borrower agrees that each of Borrower, Senior Borrower and Guarantor, shall, at Xxxxxx’s request, at Borrower’s and Xxxxxx’s expense to the extent provided for in accordance with Section 9.1.1(b) above, reasonably cooperate with Xxxxxx’s efforts to arrange for a sale or participation of any direct or indirect interest in the Loan in accordance with the market standards to which Lender customarily adheres and/or which may be required by prospective investors and/or purchasers. Borrower agrees to review, at Xxxxxx’s request in connection with any sale or participation of any direct or indirect interest in the Loan, any written materials used or provided to any prospective investors and/or purchasers, and shall confirm that the factual statements and representations contained in such sections and such other information in such materials (provided, in each case, solely to the extent such information was provided by or on behalf of Borrower and relates to the Property, Borrower, Senior Borrower, Guarantor and/or any Affiliated Manager) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(d)            Without limiting the other provisions of this Section 9.1, Borrower shall cause Guarantor to cooperate in all reasonable respects with Lender in its exercise of any of its rights pursuant to Sections 9.1 and/or 9.2; provided that Borrower shall only be required to cause Guarantor to provide the same information and documents relating to Guarantor (as updated to reflect any changes as of the date requested under this Section 9.1) that (a) were delivered to Lender in connection with the closing of the Loan, or (b) are required to be delivered to Lender under the Loan Documents. Lender shall be permitted to share such information with potential purchasers, participants or assignees of an interest in the Loan and any investment banking firms, accounting firms, law firms and other third-party advisors advising such Persons, in each case, so long as Lender notifies the same of the confidential nature thereof and, with respect to any potential purchasers, participants or assignees of an interest in the Loan, Xxxxxx has notified such Persons of the confidential nature thereof.

Section 9.2       Assignments and Participations; Securitization.

9.2.1            Assignments and Participations.

(a)            Lender, at each party’s expense to the extent provided for in accordance with Section 9.1.1(b), may Transfer to one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may not Transfer (for clarity, other than in connection with a Securitization) to any Disqualified Persons during (i) the period commencing on the Funding Date and ending on the date that is twelve (12) months after the Funding Date or (ii) any MDP Compliance Period; provided, further, that the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Lender or its administrative agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register (as hereinafter defined), an Assignment and Assumption, with (and subject to) the consent of Lender. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this Section 9.2, the transferor Lender and Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, a new Note or Notes are issued to the assignee. The assignee shall deliver to Borrower and Lender the applicable certification in accordance with Section 2.7. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.7, each Lender may transfer and carry its portion of the Loan at, to or for the account of any domestic or foreign branch office, subsidiary or affiliate of such Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall consent of Borrower be required in connection with any transfer by any Lender so long as Lender complies with the limitations set forth in the first sentence of this Section 9.2.1.

(b)            Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender, as the case may be, hereunder and such assignee shall be deemed to have assumed such rights and obligations, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) accruing from and after the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption, except with respect to (A) any payments made by Borrower to Lender pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents after the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption and (B) any letter of credit, cash deposit or other deposits or security (other than the Lien of the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents), if any, delivered to or for the benefit of or deposited with such assigning Lender, for which such assigning Lender shall remain responsible for the proper disposition thereof until such items are delivered to a party who is qualified as an Eligible Institution and agrees to hold the same in accordance with the terms and provisions of the agreement pursuant to which such items were deposited.

(c)            By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the assigning Lender and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Assumption, the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (ii) the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of Borrower or the performance or observance by Borrower of any of its obligations under any Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the assigning Lender to take such action as the assigning Lender on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the assigning Lender by the terms hereof together with such powers and discretion as are incidental thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will perform, in accordance with their terms, all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are required to be performed by the assigning Lender.

(d)            The initial Lender or its administrative agent (as a nonfiduciary agent of Borrower) shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loan owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and Borrower, the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. This Section 9.2.1(d) shall be construed so that the obligations under the Loan Documents are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related Treasury regulations (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or such Treasury regulations). The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender pursuant to this Section 9.2 at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice.

(e)            Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the initial Lender or its administrative agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register, and (iii) give prompt written notice thereof to Borrower. Within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of such notice, Borrower, at the assigning Xxxxxx’s own expense, shall execute and deliver to such assignee in exchange and substitution for the surrendered Note or Notes a new Note payable to such assignee in an amount equal to the portion of the Loan assigned to it and a new Note payable to assignor in an amount equal to the portion of the Loan retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate then outstanding principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Assumption and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the Note (modified, however, to the extent necessary so as not to impose duplicative or increased obligations on Borrower). Costs and expenses associated with any of the foregoing shall be borne by the parties in accordance with Section 9.1.1(b).

(f)            Lender, at each party’s expense in accordance with Section 9.1.1(b), may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than Borrower or any of its Affiliates (including Senior Borrower)) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of the Note held by it); provided, that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may not sell participations to any Disqualified Persons during (i) the period commencing on the Funding Date and ending on the date that is twelve (12) months after the Funding Date or (ii) any MDP Compliance Period; provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (iv) Borrower and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Xxxxxxxx agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.7 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.7(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.7(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.2.1(a); provided that such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.7, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain at one of its offices in the United States a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loan or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(g)            Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.2, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to Borrower furnished to such assignee by or on behalf of Borrower; provided, however, that, in connection with any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information received by it.

(h)            Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any assignee pursuant to this Section 9.2 may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the amounts owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or in favor of any central bank in accordance with any comparable law, rule or regulation.

9.2.2            Securitization. (a)  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lender may, at each party’s expense to the extent provided for in accordance with Section 9.1.1(b), consummate one or more private or public securitizations of rated single- or multi-class securities (the “Securities”) secured by or evidencing ownership interests in all or any portion of the Loan and the Loan Documents or a pool of assets that include the Loan and the Loan Documents (such sales, participations and/or securitizations, collectively, a “Securitization”). Xxxxxxxx acknowledges and agrees that Disqualified Persons may be holders or purchasers of Securities in connection with a Securitization.

(b)            At the request of Lender, and to the extent not already required to be provided by or on behalf of Borrower under this Agreement, Borrower shall provide information not in the possession of Lender or which may be reasonably required by Lender or take other actions reasonably required by Xxxxxx, in each case in order to satisfy the market standards to which Lender customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required by prospective investors and/or the Rating Agencies in connection with any such Securitization, provided such information is in its possession and can be produced without undue burden or cost. Lender shall have the right to provide to prospective investors and the Rating Agencies any information in its possession, including, without limitation, financial statements relating to Borrower, Senior Borrower, Guarantor, if any, the Properties and any Tenant of the Improvements. Borrower acknowledges that certain information regarding the Loan and the parties thereto and the Properties may be included in a private placement memorandum, prospectus or other disclosure documents. Borrower shall, at Xxxxxx’s request, at Xxxxxx’s sole cost and expense (other than with respect to Borrower’s attorneys’ fees and expenses), cooperate with Xxxxxx’s efforts to arrange for a Securitization in accordance with the market standards to which Lender customarily adheres and/or which may be required by prospective investors and/or the Rating Agencies in connection with any such Securitization. Borrower agrees to review, at Xxxxxx’s request in connection with the Securitization, the highlighted sections of the Disclosure Documents to the extent of the information that was provided by Xxxxxxxx and relates to Borrower, Senior Borrower, Guarantor, and/or the Properties (the “Covered Disclosure Information”) and shall confirm that the factual statements and representations contained in such highlighted sections (to the extent of any Provided Information therein) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c)            Borrower agrees to make upon Xxxxxx’s written request, without limitation, all structural or other changes to the Loan (including delivery of one or more new component notes to replace the original note or modify the original note to reflect multiple components of the Loan and such new notes or modified note may have different interest rates and amortization schedules), modifications to any documents evidencing or securing the Loan, creation of one or more new mezzanine loans (including amending Borrower’s organizational structure to provide for one or more new mezzanine borrowers), delivery of opinions of counsel acceptable to the Rating Agencies or potential investors and addressing such matters as the Rating Agencies or potential investors may require; provided, however, that in creating such new notes or modified notes or new mezzanine notes Borrower shall not be required to modify (i) the weighted average interest rate payable under the Note (except that the weighted average interest rate may subsequently change due to (1) the application of funds following an Event of Default, and (2) the application of Net Liquidation Proceeds after Debt Service), (ii) the stated maturity of the Note, (iii) the aggregate amortization of principal of the Note, (iv) any other material economic term of the Loan (including, but not limited to, the aggregate Exit Fee payable across all notes), or (v) decrease the time periods during which Borrower is permitted to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents.

(d)            If requested by Lender, Borrower shall provide Lender, promptly upon written request, with any financial statements, financial, statistical or operating information or other information as Lender shall determine necessary or appropriate (including items required (or items that would be required if the Securitization were offered publicly) pursuant to Regulation AB under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto) or required by any other legal requirements, in each case, in connection with any private placement memorandum, prospectus or other disclosure documents or materials or any filing pursuant to the Exchange Act in connection with the Securitization or as shall otherwise be reasonably requested by Xxxxxx, provided, in each case, the same is in Borrower’s possession or control or can be produced without undue burden.

(e)            Intentionally Omitted.

(f)            Intentionally omitted.

(g)            Borrower understands that certain of the Provided Information may be included in Disclosure Documents in connection with the Securitization and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or provided or made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the Securitization. In the event that the Disclosure Document is required to be revised prior to the sale of all Securities, Borrower will reasonably cooperate with the holder of the Note in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current information necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in all material respects.

(h)            The Indemnifying Persons agree to provide, in connection with any Securitization, an indemnification agreement (A) certifying that (i) the Indemnifying Persons have carefully examined the Covered Disclosure Information and (ii) such Covered Disclosure Information and such Covered Disclosure Information does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (B) jointly and severally indemnifying Lender, any Affiliate of Lender that has filed any registration statement relating to the Securitization or has acted as the sponsor or depositor in connection with the Securitization, any Affiliate of Lender that acts as an underwriter, placement agent or initial purchaser of Securities issued in the Securitization, any other co-underwriters, co-placement agents or co-initial purchasers of Securities issued in the Securitization, and each of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates and each Person or entity who Controls any such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Securitization Indemnified Persons”), for any actual out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses including without limitation reasonable legal fees and expenses for enforcement of these obligations (but expressly excluding indirect, consequential and punitive damages of any kind, except to the extent of consequential and indirect damages owed by a Securitization Indemnified Person to an unaffiliated third party) (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which any such Securitization Indemnified Person may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Covered Disclosure Information or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in the Covered Disclosure Information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Covered Disclosure Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (C) agreeing to reimburse each Securitization Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person, as they are incurred, in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall have no responsibility under this Section 9.2.2(h) for (v) any untrue statements contained in any Covered Disclosure Information to which Borrower or its authorized representative have timely objected to in writing to Lender, (w) any failure by the preparer of any Disclosure Documents to incorporate or accurately reflect information provided or comments timely made by Borrower to the Covered Disclosure Information, (x) any information that Borrower was not requested to review, (y) any losses that are caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of any Securitization Indemnified Person, and (z) numbers which have been submitted by Borrower and adjusted by any Securitization Indemnified Person from those submitted by Borrower, to the extent of such adjustment. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have. Moreover, the indemnification and reimbursement obligations provided for in clauses (B) and (C) above shall be effective, valid and binding obligations of the Indemnifying Persons, whether or not an indemnification agreement described in this Section 9.2.2(h) is provided.

(i)            In connection with Exchange Act Filings, the Indemnifying Persons jointly and severally agree to indemnify (i) the Securitization Indemnified Persons for Liabilities to which any such Securitization Indemnified Person may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact in the Covered Disclosure Information, or the omission or alleged omission to state in the Covered Disclosure Information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Covered Disclosure Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (ii) reimburse each Securitization Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses incurred by such Securitization Indemnified Persons, as they are incurred, in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall have no responsibility under this Section 9.2.2(i) for (v) any untrue statements contained in any Covered Disclosure Information to which Borrower or its authorized representative have timely objected to in writing to Lender, (w) any failure by the preparer of any Disclosure Documents to incorporate or accurately reflect information provided or comments timely made by Borrower to the Covered Disclosure Information, (x) any information that Borrower was not requested to review, (y) any losses that are caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of any Securitization Indemnified Person, and (z) numbers which have been submitted by Borrower and adjusted by any Securitization Indemnified Person from those submitted by Borrower, to the extent of such adjustment.

(j)            Promptly after receipt by a Securitization Indemnified Person of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the Securitization Indemnified Person shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any Securitization Indemnified Person, notify such Indemnifying Person in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify such Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under the indemnification provisions of this Section 9.2.2 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and; provided, further, that the failure to notify such Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to a Securitization Indemnified Person otherwise than under the provisions of this Section 9.2.2. If any such claim or action shall be brought against a Securitization Indemnified Person, and it shall notify any Indemnifying Person thereof, such Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Securitization Indemnified Person. After notice from any Indemnifying Person to the Securitization Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, such Indemnifying Person shall not be liable to the Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Securitization Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof except as provided in the following sentence; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both an Indemnifying Person, on the one hand, and one or more Securitization Indemnified Persons on the other hand, and a Securitization Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other Securitization Indemnified Persons that are different or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person, the Securitization Indemnified Persons shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such Securitization Indemnified Persons. The Securitization Indemnified Persons shall instruct its counsel to maintain reasonably detailed billing records for fees and disbursements for which such Indemnified Person is seeking reimbursement hereunder and shall submit copies of such detailed billing records to substantiate that such counsel’s fees and disbursements are solely related to the defense of a claim for which the Indemnifying Person is required hereunder to indemnify such Securitization Indemnified Person. No Indemnifying Person shall be liable for the expenses of more than one (1) such separate counsel unless such Securitization Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another Securitization Indemnified Person.

(k)            Without the prior written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), no Indemnifying Person shall settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Securitization Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless the Indemnifying Person shall have given Lender reasonable prior written notice thereof and shall have obtained an unconditional release of each Securitization Indemnified Person hereunder from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceedings. As long as an Indemnifying Person has complied with its obligations to defend and indemnify hereunder, such Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement made by any Securitization Indemnified Person without the consent of such Indemnifying Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(l)            The Indemnifying Persons agree that if any indemnification or reimbursement sought pursuant to this Section 9.2.2 is finally judicially determined to be unavailable for any reason or is insufficient to hold any Securitization Indemnified Person harmless (with respect only to the Liabilities that are the subject of this Section 9.2.2), then the Indemnifying Persons, on the one hand, and such Securitization Indemnified Person, on the other hand, shall contribute to the Liabilities for which such indemnification or reimbursement is held unavailable or is insufficient: (x) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to the Indemnifying Persons, on the one hand, and such Securitization Indemnified Person, on the other hand, from the transactions to which such indemnification or reimbursement relates; or (y) if the allocation provided by clause (x) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (x) but also the relative faults of the Indemnifying Persons, on the one hand, and all Securitization Indemnified Persons, on the other hand, as well as any other equitable considerations. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.2, (A) no party found liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any other party who is not also found liable for such fraudulent misrepresentation, and (B) the Indemnifying Persons agree that in no event shall the amount to be contributed by the Securitization Indemnified Persons collectively pursuant to this paragraph exceed the amount of the fees actually received by the Securitization Indemnified Persons in connection with the closing of the Loan.

(m)            The Indemnifying Persons agree that the indemnification, contribution and reimbursement obligations set forth in this Section 9.2.2 shall apply whether or not any Securitization Indemnified Person is a formal party to any lawsuits, claims or other proceedings. The Indemnifying Persons further agree that the Securitization Indemnified Persons are intended third-party beneficiaries under this Section 9.2.2.

(n)            The liabilities and obligations of the Securitization Indemnified Persons and the Indemnifying Persons under this Section 9.2.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

(o)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower shall have no obligation to act as depositor with respect to the Loan or an issuer or registrant with respect to the Securities issued in any Securitization.

9.2.3            Administrative Agent. Xxxxxxxx acknowledges and agrees that Xxxxxx may appoint an administrative agent (“Administrative Agent”) to take such action as Administrative Agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to Administrative Agent by Xxxxxx, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Upon such appointment of an Administrative Agent, the following provisions shall apply.

(a)            The bank serving as Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower or any subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower as if it were not Administrative Agent hereunder.

(b)            The obligations of Administrative Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action with respect to any Default or Event of Default. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in any co-lender agreement), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(c)            Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (which may be counsel for Xxxxxxxx), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

(d)            Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or not taken by it in connection herewith (i) with the consent or at the request of the Lenders or, where required by the terms of this Agreement, all of the Lenders, or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement or any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of Borrower; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article II; (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith; or (v) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith. Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability to any Lender by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be a Lender wire, electronic mail or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties. Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to Administrative Agent by Borrower or a Lender. Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.

(e)            Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its interest in the Loan, indemnify Administrative Agent, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by Xxxxxxxx) against any cost, expense (including counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

(f)            Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder and in deciding whether or to the extent to which it will continue as a Lender or assign or otherwise transfer its rights, interests and obligations hereunder.

(g)            The initial Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and Xxxxxxxx. Upon any such resignation, the Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor agent whereupon (i) such successor agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of the former Administrative Agent, (ii) the term “Administrative Agent” means such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and (iii) the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder first accruing or arising after the effective date of such retirement. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within ten (10) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall collectively assume and perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time as the Lenders shall, subject to the terms of any co-lender agreement entered into by and among the Lenders, appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent. Borrower shall be responsible for any and all costs, fees and expenses payable in connection with any appointment of any successor Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, the negotiation, execution and delivery of any administrative agent services agreement or other related documentation) and all costs, fees and expenses payable to such successor Administrative Agent in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder. After Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 9.2.3 and Section 10.13 hereof shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent and its respective Indemnified Persons in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

(h)            Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender a copy of any notice sent to Borrower by Administrative Agent in connection with the performance of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder.

(i)            The provisions of this Section 9.2.3 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and Borrower shall not have any rights to rely on, enforce or consent to any waiver, modification or amendment of, any of the provisions hereof; provided, however, that Xxxxxxxx agrees that Administrative Agent’s inability to deliver any consent to, or approval of, an action requested by Borrower due lack of appropriate Lender consent shall not constitute an unreasonable withholding or delay by Administrative Agent in the giving of such consent or approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (y) Borrower shall be entitled to rely on consents and approvals executed by Administrative Agent without investigation as to the existence of proper authorization by the Lenders, and (z) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and/or its Affiliates continue to hold at least 50% of the Loan, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. shall continue to serve as the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

Section 9.3       Exculpation. (a)  Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in the Note, this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment shall be sought against Borrower, except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest under the Note, this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or in the Collateral or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Collateral and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting the Note, this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents, agrees that it shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower in any such action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with the Note, this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section shall not, however, (a) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (b) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under the Pledge Agreement; (c) affect the validity or enforceability of or any guaranty made in connection with the Loan or any of the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder; (d) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (e) intentionally omitted; (f) impair the enforcement of the Pledge Agreement or (g) constitute a prohibition against Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrower in order to fully realize the security granted by the Pledge Agreement or to commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Lender to exercise its remedies against the Collateral.

(b)            Nothing contained herein shall in any manner or way release, affect or impair the right of Lender to recover, and Borrower shall be fully and personally liable and subject to legal action, for any actual out-of-pocket loss, cost, expense, damage, claim or other obligation (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, but expressly excluding indirect, consequential and punitive damages of any kind, except to the extent of consequential and indirect damages owed by Xxxxxx to an unaffiliated third party) incurred or suffered by Xxxxxx xxxxxxx out of or in connection with the following:

Section 9.6       Senior Loan; Intercreditor Agreement.

(a)            Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Intercreditor Agreement is intended solely for the benefit of the parties thereto, (ii) none of Borrower or any of its Affiliates is an intended third-party beneficiary of any of the provisions therein or entitled to rely on any of the provisions contained therein, and (iii) any Intercreditor Agreement may allow the Senior Lender certain additional forbearances and accommodations not otherwise available to Borrower (including, among other things, additional time to cure defaults by Borrower and the right to purchase the Loan under certain circumstances) and that Borrower hereby waives any objection thereto. None of Lender or Senior Lender shall have any obligation to disclose to Borrower the contents of any Intercreditor Agreement. Borrower’s and Guarantor’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are and will be independent of each Intercreditor Agreement and shall remain unmodified by the terms and provisions thereof. In connection with the exercise of its rights set forth in the Loan Documents or any Intercreditor Agreement, Lender shall have the right at any time to discuss the Property, the Collateral, the Senior Loan, the Loan or any other matter relating to the Property, the Collateral, the Senior Loan or the Loan directly with the Senior Lender or any of their respective consultants, agents or representatives, without notice to or permission from Borrower or any Guarantor, and Lender shall have no obligation to disclose such discussions or the contents thereof with Borrower, Guarantor or WPC. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (A) the risks of Senior Lender in making the Senior Loan are different from the risks of Lender in making the Loan, (B) in determining whether to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval, or exercise any rights, Senior Lender may reasonably reach different conclusions, and (C) Lender has an absolute independent right to grant, deny, withhold or condition any requested consent or approval, or exercise any rights, in accordance with the applicable standard set forth in the Loan Documents based on its exercise of judgment subject to such standard.

(b)            Borrower shall (or shall cause Senior Borrower to): (a) pay all principal, interest and other sums required to be paid by Senior Borrower under and pursuant to the provisions of the Senior Loan Documents; (b) comply with all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Senior Loan Documents on the part of Senior Borrower to be performed and observed, unless such performance or observance shall be waived in writing by Senior Lender; and (c) deliver a true, correct and complete copy of all material notices, demands, or material correspondence (including electronically transmitted items) given or received by Senior Borrower or Guarantor to or from Senior Lender, except to the extent Lender and Senior Lender are the same Person or Affiliates at the time the same was given. In the event of a refinancing of the Senior Loan permitted by the terms of this Agreement, Borrower will cause all Reserve Funds on deposit with Senior Lender to either (i) be utilized by Senior Borrower to reduce the amount due and payable to the Senior Lender or (ii) alternatively, be remitted to Lender to be held in the Reserve Funds required hereunder, if any, and any excess shall be applied as a mandatory prepayment of the Loan, in either case, unless otherwise agreed to (in writing) by Lender.

(c)            None of Guarantor, Borrower, Senior Borrower nor any Affiliate of any of them shall acquire or agree to acquire the Senior Loan, or any portion thereof or any interest therein, or any direct or indirect ownership interest in the holder of the Senior Loan, via purchase, transfer, exchange or otherwise, except for any interest in securities to the extent the Senior Loan has been securitized, and any breach or attempted breach of this provision shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. If, solely by operation of applicable subrogation law, Borrower or Senior Borrower or any Affiliate of any of them shall have failed to comply with the foregoing, then Borrower: (i) shall immediately notify Lender of such failure; (ii) shall cause any and all such prohibited parties acquiring any interest in the Senior Loan Documents: (A) not to enforce the Senior Loan Documents; and (B) upon the request of Lender, to the extent any of such prohibited parties has or have the power or authority to do so, to promptly: (1) cancel the promissory notes evidencing the Senior Loan, (2) reconvey and release the lien securing the Senior Loan and any other collateral under the Senior Loan Documents, and (3) discontinue and terminate any enforcement proceeding(s) under the Senior Loan Documents.

103

(d)            Without the express prior written consent of Xxxxxx, Borrower shall not, and Borrower shall not cause, suffer or permit Senior Borrower to refinance all or any portion of the Senior Loan, unless such refinancing of the Senior Loan will result in the repayment of the Debt in full in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary, any provisions in this Agreement cross-referencing or incorporating by reference provisions of the Senior Loan Documents shall be effective and such references shall be (and hereby are) expressly incorporated herein and made a part hereof notwithstanding the termination of the Senior Loan Documents, by payment in full of the Senior Loan, or otherwise, except to the extent that such provisions relate to obligations arising under the Senior Loan Documents that are no longer in effect following such termination. Upon the repayment or prepayment of the Senior Loan in full, Borrower shall enter into such amendments, supplements, modifications of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and take such other actions as Lender may reasonably require at Borrower’s sole cost and expense in connection with the Senior Loan being repaid in full, provided that neither Borrower nor Guarantor shall be required to take any action which either increases the obligations and liabilities of Borrower or Guarantor or decreases the rights and interests of Borrower or Guarantor (in each case, other than to a de minimis extent), except as contemplated by the provisions of the Loan Documents.

(b)            Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Persons from and against any and all other actual out-of-pocket liabilities, obligations, losses, damages (but expressly excluding any consequential, special, speculative, exemplary, or punitive damages, except to the extent that a party seeking indemnification of such amount has paid or is required to pay the same to a third party other than as a result of any Indemnified Party’s own willful misconduct, gross negligence, illegal acts or fraud), penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not an Indemnified Person shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Person in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that Borrower shall not have any obligation to any Indemnified Person hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnified Person. This Section 10.13(b) shall not apply with respect to Section 2.7 Taxes other than any Section 2.7 Taxes that represent liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses or disbursements arising from any non-tax claim.

109

(c)            Borrower covenants and agrees to pay for or, if Xxxxxxxx fails to pay, to reimburse Lender for, any fees and expenses incurred by any Rating Agency in connection with any Rating Agency review of the Loan, the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated thereby or any consent, approval, waiver or confirmation obtained from such Rating Agency pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and Lender shall be entitled to require payment of such fees and expenses as a condition precedent to the obtaining of any such consent, approval, waiver or confirmation.

Section 10.16       No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. (a)  Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxx intend that the relationships created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender.

(b)            This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Xxxxxx will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lender if, in Xxxxxx’s sole discretion, Xxxxxx deems it advisable or desirable to do so.

110

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Xxxxxxxx’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Collateral, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of the Pledge Agreement, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Collateral for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Collateral in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

Section 10.19       Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender or its agents.

Section 10.20       Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control.

Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Xxxxxx’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Xxxxxx engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.

111

Section 10.21       Brokers and Financial Advisors. Borrower hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Xxxxxxxx hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Xxxxxx harmless from and against any and all actual out-of-pocket claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Xxxxxx’s attorneys’ reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 10.21 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt.

Section 10.22       Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, between Borrower and Lender are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
