1.4 Reserves.
1.4.1 Intentionally Omitted.
1.4.2 Intentionally Omitted.
1.4.3 Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Funds. To the extent that funds are not set aside or otherwise reserved by Manager under the Management Agreement for the payment of Taxes, Common Charges and/or Insurance Premiums (or not maintained in the amounts required hereby) (noting, for the avoidance of ambiguity, Manager will not maintain such a reserve with respect to the Residential Units on the Closing Date or, as currently provided in the Management Agreement, after the Closing Date), on the Closing Date, Borrowers shall deposit $75,432 into the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account, and on the last Business Day of each month commencing with the last Business Day of October, 2012, Borrowers shall deposit into the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account (a) one‑twelfth (1/12) of the amount necessary (taking into account amounts on deposit in the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account) to pay the Taxes that Administrative Agent estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Administrative Agent sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes prior to the earlier of (i) the date that the same will become delinquent and (ii) the date that additional charges or interest will accrue due to the non‑payment thereof, (b) one‑twelfth (1/12) of the amount necessary (taking into account amounts on deposit in the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account) to pay the Common Charges that Administrative Agent estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Administrative Agent sufficient funds to pay all such Common Charges prior to the earlier of (i) the date that the same will become delinquent and (ii) the date that additional charges or interest will accrue due to the non‑payment thereof, and (b) except to the extent the insurance required hereunder is maintained under a blanket insurance policy reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, one‑twelfth (1/12) of the Insurance Premiums that Administrative Agent estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the insurance policies upon the expiration thereof or such higher amount necessary to accumulate with Administrative Agent sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums prior to the due date for such payments (said amounts in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above hereinafter called the “Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Funds”). In making any disbursement from the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account, Administrative Agent may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or tax lien service (with respect to Taxes), Condominium Association or managing agent (with respect to Common Charges) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity of any Common Charge, tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. Provided that no Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, the Indebtedness shall not have been accelerated and Borrowers shall have timely provided Administrative Agent with a copy of the applicable xxxx, statement or estimate, Administrative Agent shall disburse such Taxes, Common Charges or Insurance Premiums to Borrowers, which funds Borrowers shall only use for the purpose of making such payments. While any Default is continuing and the Indebtedness shall have been accelerated, Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, make disbursements of Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Funds. Any amount remaining in the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account after payment in full of all Obligations in immediately available funds shall be returned to Borrowers. If at any time Administrative Agent reasonably determines that the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Funds are not or will not be sufficient to pay any Tax, Common Charge or Insurance Premium by the applicable date set forth in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above, Administrative Agent shall notify Borrowers of such determination and Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent any amount necessary to make up the deficiency within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of written notice from Administrative Agent to Borrowers requesting payment thereof absent any manifest error in such amount provided that Borrowers notify Administrative Agent of such error within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such written notice.
1.4.4 FF&E Reserve Funds. On a monthly basis, Borrowers or Operating Lessee shall, or shall cause Manager to, deposit into the “FF&E Reserve” under the Management Agreement (the “Manager FF&E Reserve”) the FF&E Reserve Amount. To the extent that the Manager FF&E Reserve is not maintained by Manager (or not maintained in the amounts required hereby), on the last Business Day of each month commencing with the last Business Day of October, 2012, Borrowers shall deposit into the FF&E Reserve Account the FF&E Reserve Amount with respect to the second (2nd) immediately preceding calendar month (the amounts on deposit in the FF&E Reserve Account from time
2
to time are hereinafter called the “FF&E Reserve Funds”) and deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail Borrowers’ calculation of such FF&E Reserve Amount. From time to time, but not more frequently than once per month, and provided no Default shall have occurred and then be continuing and the Indebtedness shall not have been accelerated, Borrowers may submit to Administrative Agent a written request for disbursement from the FF&E Reserve Account for FF&E Expenditures approved by Administrative Agent. Each such written request shall (i) specify the FF&E Expenditures for which such disbursement is requested and (ii) include a certification from Borrowers that the costs and expenses that are the subject of such request have not been the subject of a prior request. Borrowers shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent copies of paid invoices (or unpaid invoices to which the requested disbursement relates and is to be applied) and lien waivers as Administrative Agent may reasonably require in connection with such requested disbursement and the subject matter thereof. Provided that the foregoing conditions are satisfied, and all other conditions applicable to the requested disbursement set forth in this Section 1.4.4 are satisfied, Administrative Agent shall disburse FF&E Reserve Funds to Borrowers or Operating Lessee in accordance with Borrowers instructions delivered to Administrative Agent, which funds Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall only use for the purpose of paying for such approved FF&E Expenditures or of reimbursing itself for the prior payment thereof. Except as otherwise provided herein, while any Default is continuing and the Indebtedness shall have been accelerated, Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, make disbursements of FF&E Reserve Funds. Any amount remaining in the FF&E Reserve Account after payment in full of all Obligations in immediately available funds shall be returned to Borrowers. Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall not withdraw any amount from the Manager FF&E Reserve pursuant to the Management Side Letter except for such amount, if any, that exceeds the aggregate amount that would have been on deposit in the Manager FF&E Reserve as of the day such withdrawal is made if all FF&E Reserve Amounts required herein were deposited in the Manager FF&E Reserve as and when required herein.
1.4.5 Reserve Funds Generally.
(a) (i) Any interest on the Reserve Accounts shall be credited to and accrue to the benefit of Borrowers, shall be added to and become a part of such Reserve Account and shall be disbursed in the same manner as other monies deposited in such Reserve Account.
(ii) In no event shall Administrative Agent be required to select any particular account or credit funds therein at the highest business savings or comparable rate of interest. Any Interest shall be and become part of the Reserve Accounts and shall be disbursed in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement for disbursements from each Reserve Account. Borrowers agree that they shall include all interest to which they are entitled under the terms hereof on Reserve Funds as the income of Borrowers (and, if either Borrower is a partnership or other pass‑through entity, the partners, members or beneficiaries of such Borrower, as the case may be), and shall be the owner of the Reserve Funds for all purposes, including for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes.
(b) Borrowers hereby grant to Administrative Agent a first‑priority perfected security interest in, and assign and pledge to Administrative Agent, each of the Reserve Accounts and any and all Reserve Funds now or hereafter maintained in the Reserve Accounts and any and all “Investment Property” (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of each applicable jurisdiction) contained therein as collateral security for payment of the Obligations. The provisions of this Section 1.4.5 are intended to give Administrative Agent or any subsequent holder of the Loan “control” of the Reserve Accounts within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of each applicable jurisdiction.
(c) The Reserve Accounts and any and all Reserve Funds and other Investment Property now or hereafter maintained in the Reserve Accounts shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Administrative Agent, which shall hold the Reserve Accounts and any or all Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Borrowers shall have no right of withdrawal from the Reserve Accounts or any other right or power with respect to the Reserve Accounts or any or all of the Reserve Funds now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Accounts, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
(d) All disbursements made by Administrative Agent from the Reserve Accounts upon the occurrence or during the continuance of any Default shall be deemed to have been expressly pre‑authorized by Borrowers, and
3
shall not be deemed to constitute the exercise by Administrative Agent of any remedies against Borrowers unless Administrative Agent shall have expressly stated in writing its intent to proceed to exercise its remedies as a secured party, pledgee or lienholder with respect to the Reserve Accounts. Borrowers shall use any Reserve Funds released to them solely for the applicable purposes of such Reserve Funds set forth herein.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall have no right to receive disbursements from the Working Capital Reserve Account or the PIP Account and Administrative Agent may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies as a secured party, pledgee and lienholder with respect to the Working Capital Reserve Account or the PIP Account and (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default and after the acceleration of the Indebtedness, Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall have no right to receive disbursements from the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account and the FF&E Reserve Account and Administrative Agent may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies as a secured party, pledgee and lienholder with respect to the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account and the FF&E Reserve Account. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon and during the continuance of any Default (and, with respect to the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Funds and the FF&E Reserve Funds, after the acceleration of the Indebtedness), Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may use and disburse the Reserve Funds (or any portion thereof) in its or their sole discretion, as applicable, including for any of the following purposes: (i) repayment of the Obligations, including, but not limited to, principal prepayments and the prepayment premium applicable to such full or partial prepayment (as applicable); (ii) reimbursement of Administrative Agent and Lenders for all actual losses, fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) suffered or incurred by Administrative Agent or Lenders as a result of such Default; (iii) payment of any amount expended in exercising any or all rights and remedies available to Administrative Agent and Lenders at law or in equity or under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents; or (iv) payment of any item required or permitted under this Agreement; provided, however, that any application of funds shall not cure or be deemed to cure any Default. Without limiting any other provisions hereof, each of the remedial actions shall not in any event be deemed to constitute a setoff or a foreclosure of a statutory banker’s lien. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Administrative Agent or Lenders to apply all or any portion of the Reserve Funds to effect a cure of any Default, or to pay the Obligations, or in any specific order of priority. The exercise of any or all of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents shall not in any way prejudice or affect Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights to initiate and complete a foreclosure under the Mortgage.
(f) The Reserve Funds shall not constitute escrow or trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent may commingle in one or more Eligible Accounts any and all funds controlled by Administrative Agent, including funds pledged in favor of Administrative Agent by other borrowers, whether for the same purposes as the Reserve Accounts or otherwise. In the case of any Reserve Funds which are held in a commingled account, Administrative Agent shall maintain records sufficient to enable it to determine at all times which portion of such account is related to the Loan. The Reserve Accounts are solely for the protection of Administrative Agent and Lenders. Except as expressly set forth herein, with respect to the Reserve Accounts, Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility beyond the allowance of due credit for the sums actually received by Administrative Agent or beyond the reimbursement or payment of the costs and expenses for which such Reserve Accounts were established in accordance with their terms. Upon assignment of the Loan by Administrative Agent, or resignation by Administrative Agent of its duties to Lenders, any Reserve Funds shall be turned over to the assignee or new Administrative Agent and any responsibility of the assigning or resigning Administrative Agent shall terminate. The requirements of this Agreement concerning the Reserve Accounts in no way supersede, limit or waive any other rights or obligations of the parties under any of the Loan Documents or under applicable Law.
(g) Borrowers shall not further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Reserve Accounts or the Reserve Funds deposited therein or any Investment Property maintained in the Reserve Accounts or permit any Lien to attach thereto, except for the security interest granted in this Section 1.4.5, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC financing statements, except those naming Administrative Agent as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.
4
(h) Borrowers will maintain the security interest created by this Section 1.4.5 as a first priority perfected security interest and will defend the right, title and interest of Administrative Agent in and to the Reserve Accounts, the Reserve Funds and the Investment Property against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Administrative Agent, and at the sole expense of Borrowers and Operating Lessee, Borrowers and Operating Lessee will promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and will take such further actions as Administrative Agent reasonably may request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted.
(i) Administrative Agent shall be protected in acting upon any notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other paper, document or signature believed by Administrative Agent to be genuine, and it may be assumed conclusively that any Person purporting to give any of the foregoing in connection with the Reserve Accounts has been duly authorized to do so. Administrative Agent may consult with counsel, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by them hereunder and in good faith in accordance therewith. Administrative Agent shall not be liable to Borrowers for any act or omission done or omitted to be done by Administrative Agent in reliance upon any instruction, direction or certification received by Administrative Agent except to the extent of Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(j) Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty as to any Reserve Funds in its possession or control as agent therefor or bailee thereof or any income thereon or the preservation of rights against any Person or otherwise with respect thereto. In no event shall Administrative Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, agents, employees or bailees, be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Reserve Funds, or for any diminution in value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of Administrative Agent, such Lender or any such Affiliate, agents, employees or bailees, except to the extent that such loss or damage results from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
1.5 Cash Management.
1.5.1 Accounts.
(a) All Rents and other revenue and income from the Hotel (other than any Rents, revenue or income the application of which is specifically addressed in another provision of this Loan Agreement) shall be paid and deposited into the Hotel Account in accordance with the Management Agreement. Neither Hotel Owner nor Operating Lessee shall consent to the opening of any account in substitution of the Hotel Account without the prior consent of Administrative Agent.
(b) Borrowers and Operating Lessee acknowledge and confirm that Operating Lessee has established, and Operating Lessee covenants that it shall maintain, pursuant to the Hotel Lockbox Agreement, an Eligible Account (such account, all funds at any time on deposit therein and any proceeds, replacements or substitutions of such account or funds therein, are collectively referred to herein as the “Hotel Lockbox Account”). In the event that Lockbox Bank requires a modification to the Hotel Lockbox Agreement, such modification shall only be made following Administrative Agent’s written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and if Administrative Agent refuses to agree to the requested change, then Operating Lessee shall establish a new Hotel Lockbox Account at an Eligible Institution (and such Eligible Institution shall enter into a new Hotel Lockbox Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent). In the event Hotel Lockbox Bank ceases to qualify as an Eligible Institution, Operating Lessee shall cooperate with Administrative Agent in designating a successor financial institution that meets such qualifications and is otherwise reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and transferring the Hotel Lockbox Account to such institution, each within sixty (60) days after Operating Lessee’s receipt of written request by Administrative Agent. In the event Operating Lessee fails to do so, Administrative Agent shall have the right, and Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby grant to Administrative Agent a power of attorney (which power of attorney shall be coupled with an interest and irrevocable so long as any portion of the Obligations remains outstanding), to designate a successor institution to serve as Hotel Lockbox Bank. Borrowers and Operating Lessee acknowledge and confirm that Residential Owner has established, and Residential Owner covenants that it shall maintain, pursuant to the Residential Lockbox Agreement, an Eligible Account (such account, all funds at any time on deposit therein and

any proceeds, replacements or substitutions of such account or funds therein, are collectively referred to herein as the “Residential Lockbox Account”). In the event that Lockbox Bank requires a modification to the Residential Lockbox Agreement, such modification shall only be made following Administrative Agent’s written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and if Administrative Agent refuses to agree to the requested change, then Residential Owner shall establish a new Residential Lockbox Account at an Eligible Institution (and such Eligible Institution shall enter into a new Residential Lockbox Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent). In the event Residential Lockbox Bank ceases to qualify as an Eligible Institution, Residential Owner shall cooperate with Administrative Agent in designating a successor financial institution that meets such qualifications and is otherwise reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and transferring the Residential Lockbox Account to such institution, each within sixty (60) days after Residential Owner’s receipt of written request by Administrative Agent. In the event Residential Owner fails to do so, Administrative Agent shall have the right, and Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby grant to Administrative Agent a power of attorney (which power of attorney shall be coupled with an interest and irrevocable so long as any portion of the Obligations remains outstanding), to designate a successor institution to serve as Residential Lockbox Bank. Simultaneously herewith, Administrative Agent shall establish the Cash Management Account.
(c) The Hotel Lockbox Account shall be in the name of Operating Lessee for the benefit of Administrative Agent. Operating Lessee shall be the owner of all funds on deposit in such account for all purposes, including for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes. The Residential Lockbox Account shall be in the name of Residential Owner for the benefit of Administrative Agent. Residential Owner shall be the owner of all funds on deposit in such account for all purposes, including for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes. The Cash Management Account shall be in the name of “Bank of America, N.A. as Administrative Agent for the benefit of DTRS Essex House, LLC”, and DTRS Essex House, LLC shall be the owner of all funds on deposit in such account for federal and applicable state and local tax purposes.
(d) The Lockbox Accounts and the Cash Management Account shall be subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Administrative Agent and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither Borrowers, Operating Lessee, Manager nor any other party claiming on behalf of, or through, Borrowers, Operating Lessee or Manager, shall have any right of withdrawal therefrom or any other right or power with respect thereto.
(e) Borrowers and/or Operating Lessee shall pay the reasonable and customary fees, expenses and charges (which fees, expenses and charges shall be subject to change from time to time) of (i) Lockbox Bank in connection with administering and maintaining the Lockbox Accounts and processing all items for payment therefrom, and (ii) Administrative Agent in connection with administering and maintaining the Cash Management Account and processing all distributions therefrom.
(f) Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the performance only of such duties with respect to the Cash Management Account as are specifically set forth herein, and no duty shall be implied from any provision hereof. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation or duty to perform any act which would involve it in expense or liability or to institute or defend any suit in respect hereof, or to advance any of its own monies. Borrowers and Operating Lessee, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold Administrative Agent and its directors, employees, officers and agents harmless from and against any loss, cost or damage (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by such parties in connection with the Cash Management Account other than such as result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent.
1.5.2 Deposits and Withdrawals.
(a) Operating Lessee shall direct and cause Manager, MI and all other Persons paying any Excess Cash Flow to Operating Lessee, to deposit such Excess Cash Flow into the Hotel Lockbox Account. Hotel Owner shall direct and cause Operating Lessee to deposit all rents and other sums payable to Hotel Owner pursuant to the Operating Lease (and Operating Lessee hereby agrees to do so) and all other Persons paying any Excess Cash Flow to Hotel Owner to deposit such Excess Cash Flow into the Hotel Lockbox Account. Residential Owner shall direct and cause all Lessees of the Residential Units, if any, and all other Persons paying any Excess Cash Flow to Residential Owner to deposit such Excess Cash Flow into the Residential Lockbox Account. Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall deposit
6
all Excess Cash Flow received by any of them into the applicable Lockbox Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, upon deposit to the Hotel Lockbox Account, funds necessary to pay any and all amounts due under the Operating Lease from Operating Lessee to Hotel Owner shall be deemed to be (i) first, disbursed from the Hotel Lockbox Account to Operating Lessee, (ii) second, paid by Operating Lessee to Hotel Owner, and (iii) third, deposited by Hotel Owner into the Hotel Lockbox Account, all of which shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously and without the actual transfer of funds.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, neither Borrowers nor Operating Lessee shall have any right to make withdrawals from either Lockbox Account. Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to instruct Lockbox Bank to transfer, or cause to be transferred, on each Business Day by wire transfer or other method of transfer mutually agreeable to Lockbox Bank and Administrative Agent of immediately available funds, all collected and available balances in the Lockbox Accounts (subject to any minimum retained or “peg” balance that may be required pursuant to the terms of the applicable Lockbox Agreement) to the Cash Management Account.
(c) Subject to Section 1.5.2(f) and the other terms and provisions of this Agreement, amounts on deposit in the Cash Management Account shall be allocated and disbursed monthly by Administrative Agent as follows:
(i) First, to Lockbox Bank or Administrative Agent, as applicable, all amounts due and payable by Borrowers to pursuant to Section 1.5.1(e) for such month;
(ii) Second, to Administrative Agent on behalf of itself and Lenders all interest and principal payments and administrative fees due and payable by Borrowers to Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for such month;
(iii) Third, for deposit in the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account, an amount equal to the monthly deposit to the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account due for such month;
(iv) Fourth, to the extent not deposited in the Manager FF&E Reserve as referenced in Section 1.4.4, for deposit in the FF&E Reserve Account, an amount equal to the monthly deposit to the FF&E Reserve Account due for such month;
(v) Fifth, unless a Subsequent Cash Sweep Period shall exist, to Borrowers for payment to Borrowers’ asset manager(s) of an asset management fee equal to one percent (1%) of “Gross Revenues” as defined in the Management Agreement for the then-current “Accounting Period” as defined in the Management Agreement (unless Borrowers notify Administrative Agent that this allocation should cease to be made), which sum shall be paid to Borrowers at an account which Hotel Owner shall from time to time designate in writing to Administrative Agent; and
(vi) Sixth, (y) if a Cash Sweep Period then exists, for deposit in the Working Capital Reserve Account all amounts remaining in the Cash Management Account after all prior allocations under this Section 1.5.2(c) and (z) if a Cash Sweep Period does not exist, to Borrowers by deposit in the Designated Account after all prior allocations under this Section 1.5.2(c).
(d) From time to time, but not more frequently than once per month, Borrowers may submit to Administrative Agent a written request for disbursement from the Working Capital Reserve Account (x) provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, to pay for capital expenditures and operating expenses for the Property (to the extent not paid pursuant to the Management Agreement or another Marriott Agreement) that are approved by Administrative Agent, (y) provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, to make any prepayment of the Loan pursuant to Section 1.18, and (z) subject to the next to last sentence of this Section 1.5.2(d), to return to Manager amounts required to be returned to Manager pursuant to Section 2(C) of the Operating Profit Guaranty on account of previously distributed Guaranty Fundings (as defined in the Operating Guaranty) for a Guaranty Year (as defined in the Operating Profit Guaranty) or to provide for adjustments in accountings thereunder (each a “Manager Refund”). Each such written request shall (i) specify the capital expenditures, operating expenses, prepayment or Manager Refund
7
for which such disbursement is requested, (ii) include a certification from Borrowers that the items that are the subject of such request have not been the subject of a prior request, and (iii) with respect to Manager Refund, include a copy of Manager’s demand or statement for such Manager Refund and a certification from Borrowers that the conditions in the last sentence of this Section 1.5.2(d) are satisfied. Borrowers shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent copies of paid invoices (or unpaid invoices to which the requested disbursement relates and is to be applied) and lien waivers as Administrative Agent may reasonably require in connection with such requested disbursement and the subject matter thereof. Provided that the foregoing conditions are satisfied, and all other conditions applicable to the requested disbursement set forth in this Section 1.5.2 are satisfied, Administrative Agent shall disburse Working Capital Reserve Funds to Borrowers or Operating Lessee (or at Administrative Agent’s option retain same for prepayment of the Loan if applicable pursuant to Borrowers’ request) in accordance with Borrowers’ instructions delivered to Administrative Agent, which funds Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall only use for the purpose of paying the applicable capital expenditures and Operating Expenses, reimbursing themselves for prior payments thereof, making the applicable prepayment of the Loan or making the applicable Manager Refund. Additionally, in the event that funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account are insufficient to fully fund the allocations set forth in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 1.5.2(c), Administrative Agent shall, provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, allow the disbursement of Working Capital Reserve Funds, to the extent thereof, to fund such allocations in the order set forth above. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, Working Capital Reserve Funds shall not be disbursed for any requested Manager Refund unless (A) the amount that is the subject of such Manager Refund shall have been disbursed by Manager during a Cash Sweep Period, deposited into the Hotel Account and transferred to the Cash Management Account and funds at least equal to such amount (or such lesser amount as Borrowers may request for such Manager Refund) shall have been deposited into the Working Capital Reserve Account and (B) there shall have been no release of Working Capital Reserve Funds as a result of the discontinuance of such Cash Sweep Period or other release of the funds deposited into the Working Capital Reserve Account during such Cash Sweep Period (other than disbursements permitted under this Section 1.5.2(d)). Borrowers shall notify Administrative Agent of disbursements made by Manager under the Operating Profit Guaranty during any Cash Sweep Period.
(e) So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing and no Cash Sweep Period is then in effect, following the end of the Initial Cash Sweep Period, at Borrowers’ written request, the balance remaining in the Working Capital Reserve Account shall be released to Borrowers by deposit in the Designated Account.
(f) So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, following the end of any Subsequent Cash Sweep Period, upon Borrowers’ delivery to Administrative Agent of two (2) compliance certificates pursuant to Section 2(b) of Exhibit “B” with respect to two (2) consecutive Quarterly Test Dates that demonstrate that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as of each of such Quarterly Test Dates are equal to or greater than 1.10 to 1.00, at Borrowers’ written request, the balance remaining in the Working Capital Reserve Account shall be released to Borrowers.
(g) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default (and, with respect to the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account and the FF&E Reserve Account, the acceleration of the Indebtedness), notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, neither Borrowers nor Operating Lessee shall have any right to disbursements from the Cash Management Account except for Manager Refunds. Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default (and, with respect to the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account and the FF&E Reserve Account, after the acceleration of the Indebtedness) to make any and all withdrawals from the Lockbox Accounts and the Cash Management Account and transfers between any of the Reserve Accounts as Administrative Agent shall determine in Administrative Agent’s sole and absolute discretion and Administrative Agent may use all funds contained in any such accounts for any purpose, including but not limited to repayment of the Obligations in such order, proportion and priority as Administrative Agent may determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Administrative Agent’s right to withdraw and apply funds as stated herein shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.
1.5.3 Security Interest.
(a) To secure the full and punctual payment of the Obligations and performance of all obligations of Borrowers and Operating Lessee now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
8
Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby grant to Administrative Agent a first‑priority perfected security interest in the Lockbox Accounts and the Cash Management Account, all interest, cash, checks, drafts, certificates and instruments and Investment Property, if any, from time to time deposited or held therein, and all “proceeds” (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the state(s) in which the Lockbox Accounts and the Cash Management Account are located or maintained) of any or all of the foregoing. Furthermore, neither Borrowers nor Operating Lessee shall further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in any of the foregoing or permit any Lien to attach thereto or any levy to be made thereon or any UCC financing statements to be filed with respect thereto. Borrowers and Operating Lessee will maintain the security interest created by this Section 1.5.3 as a first priority perfected security interest and will defend the right, title and interest of Administrative Agent in and to the Lockbox Accounts and the Cash Management Account against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever.
(b) Borrowers and Operating Lessee authorize Administrative Agent to file any financing statement or statements required by Administrative Agent to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interest granted herein in connection with the Lockbox Accounts and the Cash Management Account. Borrowers and Operating Lessee agree that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of Borrowers, Borrowers and Operating Lessee will promptly and duly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or the priority thereof or to enable Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder.
(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default (and, with respect to the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account and the FF&E Reserve Account, after the acceleration of the Indebtedness), Administrative Agent may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies as a secured party, pledgee and lienholder with respect to the Lockbox Accounts and the Cash Management Account. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default (and, with respect to the Tax, Common Charge and Insurance Reserve Account and the FF&E Reserve Account, after the acceleration of the Indebtedness), Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion apply amounts held in the Lockbox Accounts and the Cash Management Account to pay for the costs of protecting or preserving the Liens under the Loan Documents and/or the value of the Collateral, and, with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, for such other purposes as Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion, including for any of the following purposes: (i) repayment of the Obligations, including principal prepayments and the prepayment premium applicable to such full or partial prepayment (as applicable); (ii) reimbursement of Administrative Agent and Lenders for all losses, fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) suffered or incurred by Administrative Agent or Lenders as a result of such Default; (iii) payment of any amount expended in exercising any or all rights and remedies available to Administrative Agent and Lenders at law or in equity or under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents; or (iv) payment of any item as required or permitted under this Agreement; provided, however, that any application of funds shall not cure or be deemed to cure any Default. Without limiting any other provisions hereof, each of the remedial actions described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable exercise of Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies as a secured party with respect to the Lockbox Accounts and the Cash Management Account and shall not in any event be deemed to constitute a setoff or a foreclosure of a statutory banker’s lien. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Administrative Agent or Lenders to apply all or any portion of the Lockbox Accounts or Cash Management Account to effect a cure of any Default, or to pay the Obligations, or in any specific order of priority. The exercise of any or all of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents shall not in any way prejudice or affect Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights to initiate and complete a foreclosure under the Mortgage.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for purposes of this Section 1.5 only, “Business Day” shall mean a day on which Administrative Agent and Lockbox Bank are both open for the conduct of substantially all of their respective banking business in New York, New York, with respect to Administrative Agent, and in New York, New York, with respect to Lockbox Bank (in both instances, excluding Saturdays and Sundays).
1.6 Evidence of Debt. The portion of the Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
9
Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Indebtedness. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note(s) and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of the applicable Note and payments with respect thereto.
1.7 Interest Rates.
1.7.1 Generally. Subject to the provisions of Section 1.7.6, the Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the following (computed as provided in Section 1.7.3) as applicable:
(a) for the applicable Interest Period, the applicable LIBOR Rate;
(b) otherwise, as provided in Section 1.7.4.
1.7.2 Interest Rate Elections. Subject to the conditions and limitations in this Loan Agreement (including Section 8 of Exhibit “J”), Borrowers may by written notice to Administrative Agent in the form specified by Administrative Agent (a “Rate Election Notice”) elect to continue the Interest Period then in effect, or convert, as of the last day of any Interest Period, the term of the Interest Period from one (1) month to three (3) months, or from three (3) months to one (1) month, as applicable, or if the Base Rate then applies as provided in this Agreement, convert the interest rate from the Base Rate to a LIBOR Rate. If, for any reason, an effective election is not made in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof for which the Interest Period is expiring, or to convert the interest rate from the Base Rate to a LIBOR Rate, then the interest rate will be the Base Rate until an effective Rate Election Notice for a LIBOR Rate is thereafter received by Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof (or if an Interest Rate Protection Agreement that is a swap is then in effect, subject to Section 1.7.4, the interest rate will be a LIBOR Rate with a one (1) month Interest Period). Each Rate Election Notice must be received by Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., Administrative Agent’s Time, on the day that is three (3) LIBOR Business Days prior to the proposed date of conversion or continuation. Each Rate Election Notice shall stipulate the proposed commencement date and duration of the Interest Period. All such notices shall be irrevocable once given, and shall be deemed to have been given only when actually received by Administrative Agent in writing in form specified by Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) at Administrative Agent’s option, no Rate Election Notice shall be permitted if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) no Rate Election that does not conform to the definition of Interest Period herein shall be permitted and (iii) no Rate Election shall be permitted if any of the circumstances referred to in Section 1.7.4 apply.
1.7.3 Computations and Determinations. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Administrative Agent shall determine the interest rate applicable to the Loan in accordance with this Agreement and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The books and records of Administrative Agent shall be prima facie evidence of all sums owing to Lenders from time to time under this Agreement, but the failure to record any such information shall not limit or affect the obligations of Borrowers under the Loan Documents.
1.7.4 Unavailability of Rate. If the Required Lenders determine that no adequate basis exists for determining the LIBOR Rate, or that the LIBOR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of funding or maintaining the Loan for the applicable Interest Period, or that any applicable Law or regulation or compliance therewith by Lenders prohibits or restricts or makes impossible the charging of interest based on the LIBOR Rate, and such Lender(s) so notify Administrative Agent and Borrowers, then until the Required Lenders notify Administrative Agent and Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (a) the obligation of Lender(s) to permit such rate elections as provided Section 1.7.2 shall be suspended and (b) the Loan shall accrue interest at the Base Rate on the last day of the corresponding Interest Period. Additionally, if any Lender reasonably determines that any applicable Law, or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any Governmental Authority, or compliance therewith by such Lender prohibits or restricts or makes impossible the charging of the LIBOR Rate interest on the Loan, and such Lender so notifies Administrative Agent and Borrowers in writing, then until such
10
Lender notifies Administrative Agent and Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (i) the obligation of Lender(s) to permit such rate elections as provided Section 1.7.2 shall be suspended and (ii) the Loan shall accrue interest at the Base Rate either (A) on the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (if the Lender determines that it may lawfully continue to fund and maintain the LIBOR Rate to such day) or (B) immediately (if the Lender determines that it may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain the LIBOR Rate to such day) and in such case Borrowers shall pay to such Lender(s) the Consequential Loss, if any, pursuant to Section 1.9. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. If there is more than one Lender, and only one Lender requests compensation under this Section 1.7.4 then, so long as no Default shall then be continuing, Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon written notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice, to assign, pursuant to the form of Assignment and Assumption attached hereto as Exhibit “G” and in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 6.5, including the consent right of Administrative Agent, all of its interests, rights and obligations under the Agreement and the Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender or an affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, if such Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (x) Borrowers shall have paid to Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 6.5, (y) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its share of the Loan, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, from the assignee (to the extent of outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) and Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), and (z) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law. The applicable Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrowers to require such assignment cease to apply.
1.7.5 Increased Cost and Reduced Return. If any Lender (which shall include, for purposes of this Section, any corporation controlling any Lender) determines that any Change in Law regarding taxation, such Lender’s required levels of reserves, deposits, insurance or capital (including any allocation of capital requirements or conditions), or similar requirements, or any interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by such Lender with any of such requirements, has or would have the effect of (a) increasing such Lender’s costs relating to the Indebtedness, or (b) reducing the yield or rate of return of such Lender on the Indebtedness, to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such Change in Law, Borrowers shall, within fifteen (15) days of any request by such Lender, pay to Lender such additional amounts as (in such Lender’s sole judgment, after good faith and reasonable computation) will compensate such Lender for such increase in costs or reduction in yield or rate of return of such Lender. No failure by such Lender to immediately demand payment of any additional amounts payable hereunder shall constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand payment of such amounts at any subsequent time; provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to this Section 1.7.4 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than one (1) year prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrowers of such Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is required to be applied retroactively and such Lender has notified Borrowers within thirty (30) days of its knowledge of such Change in Law, then the one (1) year period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. Nothing herein contained shall be construed or so operate as to require Borrowers to pay any interest, fees, costs or charges greater than is permitted by applicable Law.
1.7.6 Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, upon the request of the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent, without notice or demand, may raise the rate of interest accruing on the Indebtedness by three percent (3.0%) per annum above the otherwise applicable rate of interest (“Default Rate”), independent of whether the outstanding principal balance under any Loan Document has been accelerated; provided, however, that, for so long as a Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 4.1(a) (but solely in connection with a failure to pay all or any portion of the principal of the Loan), Section 4.1(l) or Section 4.1(m) the Indebtedness shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
1.8 Principal Payments.
11
(a) Commencing on the last Business Day of December, 2015 and the last Business Day of each calendar quarter thereafter, Borrowers shall make a repayment of principal of the Loan in an amount equal to One Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000) (each an “Amortization Payment”); provided, however, that the amount of any Amortization Payment required pursuant to this Section 1.8(a) to be paid from or after the date that any Unit Net Sales Proceeds, or any other sums relating to the release of Collateral, are paid to Administrative Agent for application as a prepayment of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be reduced by an amount equal the product of (i) the amount of such Amortization Payment otherwise due hereunder (including any prior reduction pursuant to this proviso) multiplied by (ii) a fraction the numerator of which is the amount of said Unit Net Sales Proceeds or such other sum applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and the denominator of which is $190,000,000. Any such repayments shall be made together with the payment of all amounts that become due as a result of any such repayment pursuant to the Loan Documents. Other than reduced as aforesaid, no Amortization Payment shall be otherwise reduced notwithstanding any repayments or prepayments of principal of the Loan made by Borrowers or otherwise other than any prepayment in full or which reduces the outstanding principal amount of the Loan to an amount less than the Amortization Payment, in which case only the outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall be due.
(b) Borrowers shall prepay the principal balance of the Loan as, when and to the extent required or permitted pursuant to Section 2.32(d), Section 2.32(e), Section 1.17.1(f) or (h), Section 1.17.2(f) or (g), Section 1.18 or Section 7.3 or Section 2.1(e) of the Mortgage. No Prepayment Fee shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 1.8(b).
(c) Except as required in Section 1.8(b) or permitted in Sections 7.3, 7.7 or 7.8, Borrowers may not prepay the principal balance of the Loan, in full or in part, prior to March 13, 2014. After March 13, 2014, Borrowers may prepay the principal balance of the Loan, in full at any time or in part from time to time provided that: (a) Administrative Agent shall have received from Borrowers at least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice (which shall be revocable until the date that is the fourth (4th) Business Day preceding the prepayment date set forth in Borrowers’ notice; provided, however, that any notice given in connection with a proposed repayment in full of the principal balance of the Loan from the proceeds of a refinancing loan or in part in connection with the sale of Residential Units, Presidential Suite 2601 or Time Share Floors shall be revocable at any time) of Borrowers’ intent to prepay, the amount of principal which will be prepaid (the “Prepaid Principal”), and the date on which the prepayment will be made; (b) each prepayment shall be in the amount of at least $500,000 or larger integral multiples of $500,000 (unless the prepayment retires the outstanding balance of the Loan in full or the prepayment is made pursuant to Sections 7.3, 7.7 or 7.8); (c) each prepayment shall be in the amount of one hundred percent (100%) of the Prepaid Principal, plus accrued unpaid interest thereon to the date of prepayment, plus any other sums which have become due to Administrative Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents on or before the date of prepayment but have not been paid; (d) unless the prepayment is made pursuant to Sections 7.3, 7.7 or 7.8), if the date of prepayment occurs during the period commencing on March 14, 2014 and ending on the Initial Maturity Date, concurrently with such prepayment, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent a prepayment fee (the “Prepayment Fee”) in an amount equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) of the Prepaid Principal; (e) concurrently with such prepayment, Borrowers shall cause a reduction in the notional amount of any Interest Rate Protection Agreement that is a swap agreement, and deliver proof thereof to Administrative Agent; (f) if Administrative Agent or any affiliate thereof is the Counterparty to such Interest Rate Protection Agreement, concurrently with such prepayment, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent or any affiliate thereof all sums payable to it on account of such reduction; (g) if the Loan bears interest at the LIBOR Rate, no such prepayment may be made except on the last day of the Interest Period then in effect, unless the prior written consent of Administrative Agent is obtained which consent, if given, shall provide, without limitation, the manner and order in which the prepayment is to be applied to the Indebtedness; and (h) Borrowers shall pay any Consequential Loss as a result of such prepayment in accordance with Section 1.9 below.
1.9 Consequential Losses. Within fifteen (15) days after request by any Lender (or at the time of any prepayment), Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for any loss, cost, expense, penalty, claim or liability, including any loss incurred in obtaining, prepaying, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds from third parties and any loss of revenue, profit or yield, as determined by such Lender in its judgment reasonably exercised (together, “Consequential Loss”) incurred by such Lender with respect to any LIBOR Rate, including any election for same or the Loan’s bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate as a result of: (a) the failure of Borrowers to make any payments on the date specified under this Agreement or in any notice from either
12
Borrower to Administrative Agent; (b) the failure of Borrowers to continue or convert into a LIBOR Rate on the date or in the amount specified in a notice given by either Borrower to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement; (c) the early termination of any Interest Period for any reason; (d) the payment or prepayment of any amount on a date other than the date such amount is required or permitted to be paid or prepaid, whether voluntarily or by reason of acceleration; or (e) the failure of Borrowers to extend the Maturity Date after notice of Borrowers’ election to do so is given to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 1.17 regardless of any rescission of such notice. The foregoing notwithstanding, the amounts of the Consequential Loss shall never be less than zero or greater than is permitted by applicable Law. If any Consequential Loss will be due, the applicable Lender shall deliver to Borrowers a notice as to the amount of the Consequential Loss, which notice shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Neither Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall have any obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the funding or maintaining of the Loan or any portion thereof. The obligations of Borrowers under this Section 1.9 shall survive any termination of the Loan Documents and payment of the Loan and shall not be waived by any delay by Administrative Agent or Lenders in seeking such compensation.
1.10 Late Charge. If Borrowers or Operating Lessee shall fail to make any payment due hereunder or under the terms of any other Loan Document within ten (10) days after the date such payment is due (other than with respect to the payment of principal required on the Maturity Date), Borrowers shall pay to the applicable Lender or Lenders on demand a late charge equal to three percent (3.0%) of such payment. Such ten (10) day period shall not be construed as in any way extending the due date of any payment. The “late charge” is imposed for the purpose of defraying the expenses of a Lender incident to handling such defaulting payment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy Lenders may have and is in addition to any fees and charges of any agents or attorneys which Administrative Agent or Lenders may employ upon the occurrence of a Default, whether authorized herein or by Law.
1.11 Additional Taxes.
(a) Any and all payments by Borrowers to or for the account of Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of Administrative Agent and any Lender, (i) taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a lending office and (ii) any U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed pursuant to FATCA (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If Borrowers shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 1.11), Administrative Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrowers shall make such deductions, (iii) Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within 30 days after the date of such payment, Borrowers shall furnish to Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.
(b) In addition, Borrowers shall pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).
(c) If Borrowers shall be required by the Laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, Borrowers shall also pay to Administrative Agent (for the account of such Lender) or to such Lender, at the time interest is paid, such additional amount that such Lender specifies is necessary to preserve the after-tax yield (after factoring in United States (federal and state) taxes imposed on or measured by net income) the Lender would have received if such deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) had
13
not been made. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers by a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) Borrowers shall indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 1.11) paid by Administrative Agent and such Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Payment under this subsection (d) shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date the Lender or Administrative Agent makes a demand therefor.
(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrowers contained in this Section 1.11 shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all the other Indebtedness.
1.12 Payment Schedule and Maturity Date. The entire principal balance of the Loan then unpaid and all accrued interest then unpaid shall be due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Maturity Date. Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of the first calendar month after Closing Date and on the last Business Day of each succeeding calendar month thereafter until all principal and accrued interest owing on the Loan shall have been fully paid and satisfied.
1.13 Payments.
(a) Subject to Section 1.11, all payments by Borrowers or Operating Lessee shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the date specified herein. Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender such funds as such Lender may be entitled to receive hereunder (i) on or before 3:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the day Administrative Agent receives such funds, if Administrative Agent has received such funds on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the Business Day following the day Administrative Agent receives such funds, if Administrative Agent receives such funds after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time). If Administrative Agent fails to timely pay any amount to any Lender in accordance with this subsection, Administrative Agent shall pay to such Lender interest at the Federal Funds Rate on such amount, for each day from the day such amount was to be paid until it is paid to such Lender.
(b) Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments by Borrowers, Operating Lessee and any Lender shall be made to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office not later than the time for such type of payment specified in this Agreement. All payments received after such time shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be made in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America. Whenever any payment falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
(c) Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document for the account of any Lender, specify to Administrative Agent (which shall so notify the intended recipient(s) thereof) the portion of the Indebtedness to which such payment is to be applied (and if Borrowers or Operating Lessee, as applicable, fails to so specify, or if a Default has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent may distribute such payment in accordance with Section 5.11 for application in such manner as it or the Required Lenders may determine to be appropriate).
(d) Upon satisfaction of any applicable terms and conditions set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall promptly make any amounts received in accordance with the prior subsection available in like funds received by wire transfer to the applicable Lender at the address specified in the Schedule of Lenders.
(e) Unless Borrowers, Operating Lessee or any Lender has notified Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to Administrative Agent, that Borrowers, Operating Lessee or such
14
Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrowers, Operating Lessee or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be required to do so) in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then:
(i) if Borrowers or Operating Lessee failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect; and
(ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender or, if applicable, Electing Lender or Lenders shall forthwith on demand pay to Administrative Agent the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to either Borrower or Operating Lessee to the date such amount is recovered by Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such amount under the Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share, included in the applicable advance. Other than with respect to the initial funding, if such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon Borrowers, and Borrowers shall pay such amount to Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to such amount under the Loan. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which Administrative Agent, Borrowers or Operating Lessee may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.
A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or to Borrowers or Operating Lessee with respect to any amount owing under this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
1.14 Administrative Agent Advances.
(a) Administrative Agent is authorized, from time to time, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion to expend funds, on behalf of Lenders (“Administrative Agent Advances”), (i) to pay any costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 6.10, and (ii) when Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable to preserve or protect the Collateral or any portion thereof (including Taxes, Common Charges, Insurance Premiums, and other costs, fees and expenses with respect to operation, leasing, management, improvements, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition) (y) subject to Section 5.5, after the occurrence of a Default, and (z) subject to Section 5.10, after acquisition of all or a portion of the Collateral by foreclosure or otherwise.
(b) Administrative Agent Advances shall constitute obligatory advances of Lenders under this Agreement, shall be repayable by Lenders on demand and shall be Obligations that are secured by the Collateral, and if unpaid by Lenders as set forth below shall bear interest at the Base Rate. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender in writing of each Administrative Agent Advance. Upon receipt of notice from Administrative Agent of its making of an Administrative Agent Advance, each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of Administrative Agent Advance available to Administrative Agent, in same day funds, to such account of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may designate, (i) on or before 3:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time) on the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such Administrative Agent Advance if Administrative Agent provides such notice on or before 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time), or (ii) on or before 12:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately following the day Administrative Agent provides Lenders with notice of the making of such advance if Administrative Agent provides notice after 12:00 p.m. (Administrative Agent’s Time).
1.15 Defaulting Lender.
15
1.15.1 Notice and Cure of Lender Default; Election Period; Electing Lenders. In connection with any Administrative Agent Advance made hereunder, Administrative Agent shall notify (such notice being referred to as the “Default Notice”) each non-Defaulting Lender of the identity of each Lender that is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender” set forth in Exhibit “B” (to the extent Administrative Agent has actual knowledge thereof) with respect to such Administrative Agent Advance and each such Defaulting Lender’s Defaulting Lender Amount with respect to such Administrative Agent Advance. Each non-Defaulting Lender shall have the right, but in no event or under any circumstance the obligation, to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Administrative Agent Advance, provided that within twenty (20) days after the date of the Default Notice (the “Election Period”), such non-Defaulting Lender or Lenders (each such Lender, an “Electing Lender”) irrevocably commit(s) by notice in writing (an “Election Notice”) to Administrative Agent and the other non-Defaulting Lenders to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount and to assume the applicable Defaulting Lender’s obligations with respect to the advancing of the entire undisbursed portion of the Defaulting Lender’s Administrative Agent Advance obligations under this Agreement as and when required to be advanced hereunder (such entire undisbursed portion of the Defaulting Lender’s Administrative Agent Advance obligations under this Agreement, including its portion of the Payment Amount that is the subject of the default, is hereinafter referred to as the “Defaulting Lender Obligation”). If Administrative Agent receives more than one Election Notice within the Election Period, then the commitment to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount and the Defaulting Lender Obligation of the applicable Defaulting Lender shall be apportioned pro rata among the Electing Lenders in the proportion that the amount of each such Electing Lender’s Commitment bears to the total Commitments of all Electing Lenders. If the Defaulting Lender fails to pay the Defaulting Lender Amount within the Election Period, the Electing Lender or Lenders, as applicable, shall be automatically obligated to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount and Defaulting Lender Obligation (and the applicable Defaulting Lender shall no longer be entitled to fund such Defaulting Lender Amount and Defaulting Lender Obligation) within three (3) Business Days following the expiration of the Election Period to reimburse Administrative Agent or make payment to Borrowers, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Administrative Agent has funded the Defaulting Lender Amount, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement for its portion of the Defaulting Lender Payment Amount pursuant to Section 5.11.
1.15.2 Indemnity. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by or on behalf of Borrowers to Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit; nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder or under any Note until all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts are paid in full. Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall be paid by Administrative Agent to reimburse Administrative Agent and any Electing Lender pro rata for all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts to the extent the Electing Lenders are entitled pursuant to Section 1.15.1. Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” and such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed to be zero. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to participate in any discussions among and/or decisions by Lenders hereunder and/or under the other Loan Documents. Further, any Defaulting Lender shall be bound by any amendment to, or waiver of, any provision of, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders under, any Loan Document which is made subsequent to the Defaulting Lender’s becoming a Defaulting Lender. This Section 1.15.2 shall remain effective with respect to a Defaulting Lender until such time as the Defaulting Lender shall no longer be in default of any of its obligations under this Agreement by curing such default by payment of all Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts (i) within the Election Period, or (ii) after the Election Period with the consent of the non-Defaulting Lenders. Such Defaulting Lender nonetheless shall be bound by any amendment to or waiver of any provision of, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders under any Loan Document which is made subsequent to that Lender’s becoming a Defaulting Lender and prior to such cure or waiver. The operation of this subsection or the subsection above alone shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any non-Defaulting Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by Borrowers or Operating Lessee of their duties and obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. Furthermore, nothing contained in this Section 1.15.2 shall release or in any way limit a Defaulting Lender’s obligations as a Lender hereunder and/or under any other of the Loan Documents. Further, a Defaulting Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless Administrative Agent and each of the non-Defaulting Lenders from any claim, loss, or costs incurred by Administrative Agent and/or the non-Defaulting Lenders as a result of a Defaulting Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of this Agreement, including any and all additional losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred by Administrative Agent and any non-Defaulting Lender as a result of and/or in connection with (i) a non-
16
Defaulting Lender’s acting as an Electing Lender, (ii) any enforcement action brought by Administrative Agent against a Defaulting Lender, and (iii) any action brought against Administrative Agent and/or Lenders. The indemnification provided above shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
1.15.3 No Election. In the event that no Lender elects to commit to fund the Defaulting Lender Amount and Defaulting Lender Obligations of a Defaulting Lender within the applicable Election Period, Administrative Agent shall, upon the expiration of the Election Period, so notify each Lender.
1.16 Several Obligations; No Liability, No Release. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Administrative Agent (if any) to make any Payment Amounts shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their respective Pro Rata Shares. Except as may be specifically provided in this Agreement, no Lender shall have any liability for the acts of any other Lender. No Lender shall be responsible to Borrowers, Operating Lessee or any other Person for any failure by any other Lender to fulfill its obligations to make the Loan or reimbursements for other Payment Amounts, nor to take any other action on its behalf hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein. The failure of any Lender to pay to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of a Payment Amount shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to pay to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Payment Amounts as and when required herein, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so fund its Pro Rata Share of the Payment Amount. In furtherance of the foregoing, Lenders shall comply with their obligation to pay Administrative Agent their Pro Rata Share of such Payment Amounts regardless of (a) the occurrence of any Default hereunder or under any Loan Document; (b) any failure of consideration, absence of consideration, misrepresentation, fraud, or any other event, failure, deficiency, breach or irregularity of any nature whatsoever in the Loan Documents; or (c) any Bankruptcy Action or other like event with regard to either Borrower, any SPC Party, Operating Lessee or Guarantor. The obligation of Lenders to pay to such Payment Amounts are in all regards independent of any claims between Administrative Agent and any Lender.

(a) Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall cause the Property to be maintained in a good, safe and insurable condition and otherwise in accordance with the standards set forth in Management Agreement and in material compliance with all applicable Laws, Condominium Requirements and the Leases, pay all fees or charges arising in connection therewith and shall promptly make all repairs to the Property to maintain them in good, safe and insurable condition and as otherwise required by the Management Agreement, applicable Laws, Condominium Requirements and the Leases, above grade and below grade, interior and exterior, structural and nonstructural, ordinary and extraordinary, unforeseen and foreseen, ordinary wear and tear and damage by casualty excepted. Neither Borrowers nor Operating Lessee shall use or occupy or conduct any activity on, or allow the use or occupancy of or the conduct of any activity on, the Property in a manner which results in a material violation of any applicable Law or Condominium Requirement. All repairs made or caused to be made by Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall be made with quality materials, in a good and workmanlike manner and shall comply in all respects with the Management Agreement, applicable Laws, Condominium Requirements and the Leases. Neither Borrowers nor Operating Lessee shall impose any easement, restriction, covenant or encumbrance on the Property or any portion thereof (other than Permitted Liens) or grant any purchase or lease right or option on the Property or any portion thereof, execute or file any subdivision plat or condominium declaration affecting the Property or any portion thereof or consent to the annexation of the Property or
20
any portion thereof without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders. If under applicable zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of the Property is or shall become a nonconforming use, Borrowers will not cause or permit the nonconforming use to be discontinued or the nonconforming Improvement to be abandoned without the express written consent of Administrative Agent.
(b) Neither Borrowers nor Operating Lessee shall (i) consent to any zoning reclassification of any portion of the Property or obtain any variance under any existing zoning ordinance that is material and outside the ordinary course of such Person’s business, or (ii) use or permit the use of any portion of the Property in any manner that could result in such use becoming a non-conforming use under any zoning ordinance or any other applicable land use law, rule or regulation, in each case without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.

Without limiting the discretion of Administrative Agent with respect to required endorsements to insurance policies, all such policies for loss of or damage to the Property and the common elements under the Condominium Documents shall name Administrative Agent and Lenders as additional insured and contain a standard mortgagee clause (without contribution) naming Administrative Agent as mortgagee with loss proceeds payable to Administrative Agent notwithstanding (i) any act, failure to act or negligence of or violation of any warranty, declaration or condition contained in any such policy by any named or additional insured; (ii) the occupation or use of the Property or the common elements under the Condominium Documents for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of any such policy; (iii) any foreclosure or other action by Administrative Agent or Lenders under the Loan Documents (or other lenders of the other units at the condominium under the Condominium Documents); or (iv) any change in title to or ownership of the Property (or other any other unit at the condominium under the Condominium Documents) or any portion thereof,
32
such proceeds to be held for application as provided in the Loan Documents. The originals of each initial insurance policy (or with respect to the policy maintained by the Condominium Association or Manager or otherwise to the extent permitted by Administrative Agent, a copy of the original policy and such evidence of insurance acceptable to Administrative Agent) shall be delivered to Administrative Agent on the Closing Date, with all premiums fully paid current, and each renewal or substitute policy (or evidence of insurance) shall be delivered to Administrative Agent, at least five (5) days before the termination of the policy it renews or replaces. Borrowers or Operating Lessee shall pay all premiums on policies required hereunder as they become due and payable and promptly deliver to Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent of the timely payment thereof. If any loss occurs at any time when Borrowers or Operating Lessee has failed to perform its covenants and agreements in this Section 2.32 with respect to any insurance payable because of loss sustained to any part of the Property, whether or not such insurance is required by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall nevertheless be entitled to the benefit of all insurance covering the loss and held by or for Borrowers or Operating Lessee, to the same extent as if it had been made payable to Administrative Agent. Upon any foreclosure of the Mortgage or transfer of title to the Property to Administrative Agent or its designee, all of Borrowers’ and Operating Lessee’s right, title and interest in and to the insurance policies referred to in this Section 2.32 (including unearned premiums) and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at foreclosure or other such transferee, to the extent permissible under such policies.
(d) Subject to the Condominium Documents, Administrative Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to make proof of loss for, settle and adjust any claim under, and receive the proceeds of, all insurance for loss of or damage to the Property in which the Net Proceeds or the costs of completing a Restoration are equal to or greater than the Casualty Threshold Amount (or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or during the existence of a Cash Sweep Period) regardless of whether or not such insurance policies are required by Administrative Agent, and the expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall be a part of the Indebtedness and shall be due and payable to Administrative Agent on demand. Administrative Agent shall not be, under any circumstances, liable or responsible for failure to collect or exercise diligence in the collection of any of such proceeds or for the obtaining, maintaining or adequacy of any insurance or for failure to see to the proper application of any amount paid over to Borrowers or Operating Lessee. If the Net Proceeds for any Restoration shall be less than the Casualty Threshold Amount and the costs of completing such Restoration shall be less than such Casualty Threshold Amount, the Net Proceeds (y) if the same are paid by the insurance company directly to Borrowers or Operating Lessee, may be retained by it or (z) if the same are paid by the insurance company to the Administrative Agent, will be disbursed to Borrowers or Operating Lessee upon receipt provided that no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no Cash Sweep Period shall be in effect and Borrowers and Operating Lessee deliver to Administrative Agent a written undertaking to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.32(d). If the Net Proceeds for any Restoration shall be equal to or greater than the Casualty Threshold Amount, or the costs of completing such Restoration shall be equal to or greater than such Casualty Threshold Amount, the Net Proceeds will be held by Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent shall make the Net Proceeds available to Borrowers or Operating Lessee for Restoration (unless a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, a Cash Sweep Period shall be in effect or more than thirty-five percent (35%) of the total floor area of the Property shall have been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such casualty, in which event the Net Proceeds shall be made available as Administrative Agent shall elect in its sole discretion) and at Borrowers’ option be (1) applied (upon compliance with the terms and conditions set forth herein) to the Restoration of the Property, or (2) applied to the payment of the Indebtedness in such order and manner as Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect, whether or not due. In any event, Borrowers’ obligation to repay the Indebtedness shall remain in full force and effect and the payment thereof shall not be excused. Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall at all times comply with the requirements of the insurance policies required hereunder and of the issuers of such policies and of any board of fire underwriters or similar body as applicable to or affecting the Property. In the event that, and to the extent that, Net Proceeds for any Restoration are equal to or greater than the Casualty Threshold Amount, or the costs of completing such Restoration shall be equal to or greater than the Casualty Threshold Amount and such Net Proceeds to be applied to Restoration, each of the following conditions must also be met and complied with:

Administrative Agent shall be entitled, at the expense of Borrowers and Operating Lessee, to consult such professionals as Administrative Agent may deem necessary, in its sole discretion, to determine the total costs of the Restoration. Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby assign to, and grants Administrative Agent a security interest in, such account and the funds therein to secure the payment and performance of the Indebtedness;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any Governmental Authority shall require or commence any proceedings for the demolition of any buildings or structures comprising a part of the Property, or shall commence any proceedings to condemn or otherwise take pursuant to the power of eminent domain a material portion of the Property, Administrative Agent may, at its option, declare the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable in full and apply any condemnation proceeds to the outstanding balance of the Indebtedness in such order and manner as Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect. In any event the unpaid portion of the Indebtedness shall remain in full force and effect and the payment thereof shall not be excused. Administrative Agent shall not be, under any circumstances, liable or responsible for failure to collect or to exercise diligence in the collection of any such sum or for failure to see to the proper application of any amount paid over to Borrowers or Operating Lessee. Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, in the name of Borrowers and Operating Lessee, to execute and deliver valid acquittances for, and to appeal from, any such award, judgment or decree. All costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with any condemnation shall be a demand obligation owing by Borrowers and Operating Lessee (which they hereby promise to pay) to Administrative Agent.

2.33 Property Improvement Plan.
(a) On the Closing Date, Hotel Owner shall deliver to Administrative Agent a PIP Letter of Credit in the amount of $16,670,000. Attached hereto as Exhibit “L” is the property improvement plan for the Property set forth in the Management Agreement (the “Property Improvement Plan”). On or before the dates required pursuant to the Management Agreement, Operating Lessee shall cause the Property Improvement Plan to be performed and completed in a good and workmanlike manner, in material compliance with all applicable Laws and the Marriott Agreements and in each case in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Operating Lessee shall periodically (but not less frequently than quarterly) advise Administrative Agent as to the progress of the performance of the Property Improvement Plan, the costs incurred for same, the projected cost to completion of same and the projected completion date for all matters. So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the completion of the Property Improvement Plan, and provided Hotel Owner shall have delivered to Administrative Agent a certificate from Manager that the Property Improvement Plan has been completed in accordance with the terms of the Marriott Agreements and other reasonable evidence of such completion together with reasonable evidence that all costs thereof have been paid, either (i) the PIP Letter(s) of Credit (to the extent outstanding) shall be returned to Hotel Owner at its expense or (ii) if applicable, the balance remaining in the PIP Account shall either be (A) if no Cash Sweep Period is then in effect, disbursed to Hotel Owner in accordance with its written instructions delivered to Administrative Agent or (B) if a Cash Sweep Period is then in effect, deposited into the Working Capital Reserve Account. Additionally, from time to time as Operating Lessee completes each element of the Property Improvement Plan (but not more frequently than monthly), provided that (x) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (y) Hotel Owner is not required to take any action pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 2.33(a) that shall not have been performed and (z) Hotel Owner shall have delivered to Administrative Agent a certificate from Manager that such element of the Property Improvement Plan has been completed in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement and other reasonable evidence of such completion together with reasonable evidence that all costs thereof have been paid and reasonable evidence of such costs, Administrative Agent shall, at Hotel Owner ’s sole expense, make arrangements for the applicable PIP Letter of Credit to be reduced by the costs incurred by Operating Lessee to complete such element to Hotel Owner pursuant to an amendment to the applicable PIP Letter of Credit in form and content acceptable to Administrative Agent, less any additional projected costs for the Property Improvement Plan as provided in the following sentence. In the event that the projected cost of the Property Improvement Plan (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent), including all changes thereto, cost overruns and additional charges, at any time exceeds the outstanding aggregate amount of the PIP Letters of Credit (or, if applicable, the balance of the funds on deposit in the PIP Account) by more than $500,000, Hotel Owner shall, within ten (10) Business Days after demand from Administrative Agent either make a deposit into the Cash Management Account (for deposit into the PIP Account) in the amount of such excess, deliver to Administrative Agent an additional PIP Letter of Credit in the amount of such excess or amend the existing PIP Letter of Credit to increase it by the amount of such excess.
(b) Without limiting Section 1.4.1(b), upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default, or in the event that Administrative Agent receives a written notice from Manager that Operating Lessee or Hotel Owner is in default of its obligations under the Management Agreement (beyond applicable cure periods provided in the Management Agreement so long as Administrative Agent has a longer cure period pursuant to the Manager Subordination Agreement) with regard to the Property Improvement Plan, Administrative Agent shall have the option, to the extent permitted in the Manager Subordination Agreement, to proceed under existing contracts or to contract with third parties to complete the Property Improvement Plan and to apply the PIP Letters of Credit and Reserve Funds toward the labor and materials necessary to complete the Property Improvement Plan, without providing any prior notice to either Borrower or Operating Lessee, and to exercise any and all other remedies available to Administrative Agent and/or the Required Lenders upon and during the continuance of a Default hereunder.
(c) In order to facilitate Administrative Agent’s completion of the Property Improvement Plan work in accordance with clause (b) above, Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby grant to Administrative Agent an irrevocable power-of-attorney, coupled with an interest, to perform the Property Improvement Plan upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or in the event that Administrative Agent receives a written notice from Manager that Hotel Owner or Operating Lessee is in default of its obligations under the Management Agreement with regards to the Property Improvement Plan (beyond applicable cure periods provided in the Management Agreement so long as Administrative Agent has a longer cure period pursuant to the Manager Subordination Agreement) to the extent permitted
37
in the Manager Subordination Agreement, and to apply the proceeds of the PIP Letters of Credit (and any amounts on deposit in the Reserve Accounts) to the costs associated therewith, all as Administrative Agent may determine in its sole and absolute discretion but without obligation to do so. In connection therewith, Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby grant to Administrative Agent the right to enter onto the Property to make inspections, perform the Property Improvement Plan and/or employ watchmen to protect the Property from damage subject to the rights of Manager under the Management Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, other than from the proceeds of the PIP Letters of Credit or sums on deposit in the PIP Account, all sums so expended by Administrative Agent shall constitute Obligations secured by the Mortgage. Borrowers and Operating Lessee appoint Administrative Agent as its true and lawful attorney‑in‑fact with full power of substitution to perform the Property Improvement Plan in the name of Borrowers and Operating Lessee upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, or in the event that Administrative Agent receives a written notice from Manager that Hotel Owner or Operating Lessee is in default of its obligations under the Management Agreement with regard to the Property Improvement Plan (beyond applicable cure periods provided in the Management Agreement so long as Administrative Agent has a longer cure period pursuant to the Manager Subordination Agreement) to the extent permitted in the Manager Subordination Agreement. Such power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers and Operating Lessee empower said attorney‑in‑fact to: (i) use any of the proceeds of the PIP Letters of Credit (and any amounts on deposit in the Reserve Accounts) for the purpose of performing or completing the Property Improvement Plan; (ii) make such additions, changes and corrections to the Property Improvement Plan as shall be reasonably necessary or desirable to complete the Property Improvement Plan to the extent permitted in the Manager Subordination Agreement; (iii) employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, architects, watchmen and inspectors as shall be required for such purposes; (iv) pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may become Liens against the Property, or as may be necessary or desirable for the completion of the Property Improvement Plan, or for clearance of title; (v) execute all applications and certificates in the name of Borrower or Operating Lessee which may be required by any of the contract documents; (vi) prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the Property or the rehabilitation, repair and improvement of the Property; and (vii) do any and every act which Borrowers or Operating Lessee might do on its own behalf to fulfill the terms of this Agreement to the extent permitted in the Manager Subordination Agreement.
(d) Nothing in this Section 2.33 or any other provision of any Loan Document (except, solely as between Administrative Agent, Lenders and Manager, the Manager Subordination Agreement) shall or shall be deemed to: (i) make Administrative Agent responsible for performing or completing the Property Improvement Plan; (ii) require Administrative Agent to expend funds in connection with or to perform or complete any of the Property Improvement Plan; (iii) obligate Administrative Agent to proceed with any of the Property Improvement Plan; or (iv) obligate Administrative Agent to demand from either Borrower or Operating Lessee additional sums to perform or complete any of the Property Improvement Plan.
(e) Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall, subject to the rights of Manager under the Management Agreement, permit Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent’s agents and representatives (including Administrative Agent’s engineer, architect, or inspector) or third parties performing any of the Property Improvement Plan in accordance with Section 2.33(b) and (c) upon reasonable prior notice to enter onto the Property during normal business hours to inspect the progress of the Property Improvement Plan and all materials being used in connection therewith, to examine all plans and shop drawings relating to the Property Improvement Plan which are or may be kept at the Property, and, to the extent permitted in the Manager Subordination Agreement, to complete any of the Property Improvement Plan in accordance with Section 2.33(b) and (c). Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall cause Manager and all architects, engineers, contractors and subcontractors to cooperate with Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent’s representatives or such other Persons described above in connection with inspections described in this Section 2.33(e) or the completion of Property Improvement Plan in accordance with Section 2.33(b) and (c).
(f) All Property Improvement Plan work shall comply with all applicable Laws, Condominium Requirements and insurance requirements, including applicable building codes, special use permits, environmental regulations, and requirements of insurance underwriters, and with the terms and provisions of the Marriott Agreements.
(g) Borrowers hereby collaterally assigns to Administrative Agent all rights and claims Borrowers may have against all Persons supplying labor or materials in connection with the Property Improvement Plan work.
38
(h) Each PIP Letter of Credit shall be additional security for the full and punctual payment of the Obligations and performance of all obligations of Borrowers and Operating Lessee now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, Administrative Agent shall have the right, at its option, to pay for the costs of protecting or preserving the Liens under the Loan Documents and/or the value of the Collateral, and, with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, for such other purposes as Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion, including for any of the following purposes: (i) repayment of the Obligations, including principal prepayments and the prepayment premium applicable to such full or partial prepayment (as applicable); (ii) reimbursement of Administrative Agent and Lenders for all losses, fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) suffered or incurred by Administrative Agent or Lenders as a result of such Default; (ii) payment of any amount expended in exercising any or all rights and remedies available to Administrative Agent and Lenders at law or in equity or under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents; or (iv) payment of any item as required or permitted under this Agreement; provided, however, that any application of funds shall not cure or be deemed to cure any Default. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Administrative Agent or Lenders to apply all or any portion of the proceeds of the PIP Letters of Credit to effect a cure of any Default, or to pay the Obligations, or in any specific order of priority. The exercise of any or all of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents shall not in any way prejudice or affect Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights to initiate and complete a foreclosure under the Mortgage.
(i) In addition to any other right Administrative Agent may have to draw upon each PIP Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall have the additional rights to draw in full each PIP Letter of Credit: (i) with respect to any evergreen PIP Letter of Credit, if Administrative Agent has received a notice from the issuing bank that such PIP Letter of Credit will not be renewed and a substitute PIP Letter of Credit is not provided at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such outstanding PIP Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire; (ii) with respect to any PIP Letter of Credit with a stated expiration date, if Administrative Agent has not received a notice from the issuing bank that it has renewed such PIP Letter of Credit at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such PIP Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire and a substitute PIP Letter of Credit is not provided at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the outstanding PIP Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire; (iii) upon receipt of notice from the issuing bank that any PIP Letter of Credit will be terminated; or (iv) if Administrative Agent has received notice that the bank issuing any PIP Letter of Credit shall cease to be an Eligible Institution and within ten (10) Business Days after Administrative Agent notifies Hotel Owner in writing of such circumstance, Hotel Owner shall fail to deliver to Administrative Agent a substitute PIP Letter of Credit issued by an Eligible Institution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the above, Administrative Agent is not obligated to draw any PIP Letter of Credit upon the happening of an event specified in (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above and shall not be liable for any losses sustained by either Borrower or Operating Lessee due to the insolvency of the bank issuing any PIP Letter of Credit if Administrative Agent shall not have drawn such PIP Letter of Credit. In the event that any PIP Letter of Credit is terminated, or otherwise ceases to be in effect, prior to completion of the Property Improvement Work or the drawing in full thereon by Administrative Agent, Hotel Owner shall fail to deliver to Administrative Agent a substitute PIP Letter of Credit issued by an Eligible Institution within ten (10) days after written notice to Borrower.

4.2 Remedies. Upon a Default, Administrative Agent may with the consent of, and shall at the direction of the Required Lenders, without notice, exercise any and all rights and remedies afforded by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, Law, equity or otherwise, including (a) declaring any and all Indebtedness immediately due and payable; (b) reducing any claim to judgment; or (c) obtaining appointment of a receiver (to which Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby consent) and/or judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure under the Mortgage; provided, however, that upon a Default, Administrative Agent at its election may (but shall not be obligated to) with the consent of, and shall at the direction of the Required Lenders, without notice, set‑off and apply, to the extent thereof and to the maximum extent permitted by Law, any and all deposits, funds, or assets at any time held and any and all other indebtedness at any time owing by Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the credit or account of each Borrower or Operating Lessee against any Indebtedness; provided, further that upon the occurrence of a Default pursuant to Section 4.1(l) or Section 4.1(m), all Indebtedness shall automatically become due and payable immediately without further act of Administrative Agent or any Lender.
Each of each Borrower and Operating Lessee hereby appoints Administrative Agent as its attorney‑in‑fact, which power of attorney is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, with full power of substitution if Administrative Agent so elects, to do any of the following in its name upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default: (i) endorse its name on any checks or drafts representing proceeds of any insurance policies, or other checks or instruments payable to it with respect to the Property; (ii) do every act with respect to the Property that Borrowers and Operating Lessee may do; (iii) prosecute or defend any action or proceeding incident to the Property; (iv) pay, settle, or compromise all bills and claims so as to clear title to the Property; and (v) take over and use all or any part of the labor, materials, supplies and equipment contracted for, owned by, or under the control of either Borrower or Operating Lessee, whether or not previously incorporated into the Improvements. Any amounts expended by Administrative Agent itself or on behalf of Lenders to construct or complete the Property Improvement Plan or any other Improvements, to operate the Property or in connection with the exercise of its remedies herein shall be deemed to have been advanced to Borrowers hereunder as a demand obligation owing by Borrowers to Administrative Agent or Lenders as applicable and shall constitute a portion of the Indebtedness, regardless of whether such amounts exceed any limits for Indebtedness
48
otherwise set forth herein. Neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall have any liability to Borrowers or Operating Lessee for the sufficiency or adequacy of any such actions taken by Administrative Agent.
All of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of Administrative Agent and Lenders provided for in the Loan Documents, at law or in equity (together, “Rights”) are cumulative of each other, and no Right conferred upon or reserved to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other Rights. No delay or omission of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any Right accruing upon the happening of a Default shall impair any such Right or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or any acquiescence therein. No delay or omission on the part of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any option for acceleration of the maturity of the Indebtedness, or for foreclosure of the Mortgage following any Default as aforesaid, or any other option granted to Administrative Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents in any one or more instances, or the acceptances by Administrative Agent or Lenders of any partial payment on account of the Indebtedness, shall constitute a waiver of any such Default, and each such option shall remain continuously in full force and effect. No Right herein conferred upon or reserved to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other Rights provided for in any of the other Loan Documents. The resort to any Right shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other Right or preclude any other or further exercise thereof. Every Right may be pursued separately, successively or together against each Borrower, Operating Lessee, Guarantor or any Collateral or any part thereof, and every Right may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient by the Required Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, the acceptance by Administrative Agent or any Lender from time to time of any payment under the Loan Documents which is past due or which is less than the payment in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment, shall not (i) constitute a waiver of or impair or extinguish the exercise of any Right at the time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such Right, or (ii) constitute a waiver of the requirement of punctual payment and performance or a novation in any respect.
Regardless of how a Lender may treat payments received from the exercise of remedies under the Loan Documents for the purpose of its own accounting, for the purpose of computing the Indebtedness, payments shall be applied as elected by Lenders, except as expressly set forth in any Loan Document to the contrary. No application of payments will cure any Default, or prevent acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at Law or in equity.
ARTICLE 5 - ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
5.1 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent.
(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 5.9) appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
(b) No individual Lender or group of Lenders shall have any right to amend or waive, or consent to the departure of any party from any provision of any Loan Document, or secure or enforce the obligations of either Borrower, Operating Lessee or any other party pursuant to the Loan Documents, or otherwise, except for Administrative Agent to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement. All such rights, on behalf of Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders, shall be held and exercised solely by and at the option of Administrative Agent for the pro rata benefit of
49
the Lenders. Such rights, however, are subject to the rights of a Lender or Lenders, as expressly set forth in this Agreement, to approve matters or direct Administrative Agent to take or refrain from taking action as set forth in this Agreement. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights, or taking or refraining from taking any actions which Administrative Agent is expressly entitled to exercise or take under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including (i) the determination if and to what extent matters or items subject to Administrative Agent’s satisfaction are acceptable or otherwise within its discretion, (ii) the making of Administrative Agent Advances, and (iii) the exercise of remedies pursuant to, but subject to, Article 4 or pursuant to any other Loan Document, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by Lenders.
(c) In case of the pendency of any Bankruptcy Action, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to either Borrower, Operating Lessee, any SPC Party, any Constituent Member of either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor, no individual Lender or group of Lenders shall have the right, and Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of the Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on either Borrower) shall be exclusively entitled and empowered on behalf of itself and the Lenders, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loan and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and Administrative Agent under Section 6.10 allowed in such judicial proceeding); and
(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Section 6.10.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of the Lenders except as approved by Required Lenders or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claims of Lenders except as approved by Required Lenders in any such proceeding.
5.2 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys‑in‑fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultant experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney‑in‑fact that it selects with reasonable care.
5.3 Liability of Administrative Agent. No Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by either Borrower, Operating Lessee, Guarantor, or any of their respective Affiliates, or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of either Borrower, Operating Lessee or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire
50
as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of either Borrower, Operating Lessee, Guarantor, or any of their respective Affiliates.
5.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex, electronic mail or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any party to the Loan Documents), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of the Required Lenders or all Lenders unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence (or the deemed concurrence) of the Required Lenders or all Lenders to the extent required hereunder as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. In the absence of written instructions from the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders, as expressly required hereunder, Administrative Agent may take or not take any action, at its discretion, unless this Agreement specifically requires the consent of the Required Lenders or such greater number of Lenders.
5.5 Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or either Borrower referring to this Agreement and describing such Default in reasonable detail. Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article 4; provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of Lenders.
5.6 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent.
(a) Each Lender acknowledges that none of Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of either Borrower, Operating Lessee and Guarantor, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lenders as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of either Borrower, Operating Lessee and Guarantor, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of either Borrower, Operating Lessee and Guarantor.
(b) Administrative Agent promptly after its receipt shall provide each Lender such notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent herein. To the extent not already available to a Lender, Administrative Agent shall also provide any Lender and/or make available for such Lender’s inspection during reasonable business hours and at such Lender’s expense, in each case upon such Lender’s written request therefor: (i) copies of the Loan Documents; (ii) such information as is then in Administrative Agent’s
51
possession in respect of the current status of principal and interest payments and accruals in respect of the Loan; (iii) copies of all current financial statements in respect of Borrowers, Operating Lessee, Guarantor or other Person liable for payment or performance by Borrowers or Operating Lessee of any obligations under the Loan Documents, then in Administrative Agent’s possession with respect to the Loan; and (iv) other current factual information then in Administrative Agent’s possession with respect to the Loan and bearing on the continuing creditworthiness of Borrowers, Operating Lessee or Guarantor; provided that nothing contained in this Section shall impose any liability upon Administrative Agent for its failure to provide a Lender any of such Loan Documents, information, or financial statements, unless such failure constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence on Administrative Agent’s part; and provided further that Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to provide any Lender with any information in violation of Law or any contractual restrictions on the disclosure thereof (provided such contractual restrictions shall not apply to distributing to a Lender factual and financial information expressly required to be provided herein). Except as set forth above, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lenders with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrowers, Operating Lessee or Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any of Agent-Related Persons.
5.7 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out‑of‑pocket expenses (including attorney fees) incurred by Administrative Agent as described in Section 6.10. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Indebtedness hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent.
5.8 Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with any party to the Loan Documents and their respective Affiliates as though Administrative Agent were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that Borrowers and Administrative Agent or its Affiliate have entered or may enter into Interest Rate Protection Transactions. A portion of the Loan may be funded to honor Borrowers’ payment obligations under the terms of such Interest Rate Protection Transactions, and Lenders (other than the Lender that is Administrative Agent or such affiliate) shall have no right to share in any portion of such payments. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any party to the Loan Documents, or their respective Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such parties or such parties’ Affiliates) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan, Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not Administrative Agent or party to Interest Rate Protection Transactions, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.
5.9 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Borrowers and Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor administrative agent for Lenders. If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders, a successor administrative agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as
52
Administrative Agent hereunder shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the part of such retiring Administrative Agent or any other Lender. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article and other applicable Sections of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.
5.10 Releases; Acquisition and Transfers of Collateral.
(a) Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to transfer or release any lien on, or after foreclosure or other acquisition of title by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders, to transfer or sell, any Collateral (i) upon the payment in full of immediately available funds of all Indebtedness or (ii) after foreclosure or other acquisition of title (y) for a purchase price of at least ninety percent (90%) of the value indicated in the most recent Appraisal of the Collateral obtained by Administrative Agent made in accordance with regulations governing Administrative Agent, less any reduction indicated in the Appraisal estimated by experts in such areas, or (z) if approved by the Required Lenders.
(b) If all or any portion of the Collateral is acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, Administrative Agent shall take title to such Collateral in its name or by an Affiliate of Administrative Agent, but for the benefit of all Lenders in their Pro Rata Shares on the date of the foreclosure sale or recordation of the deed in lieu of foreclosure (the “Acquisition Date”). Administrative Agent and all Lenders hereby expressly waive and relinquish any right of partition with respect to any Collateral so acquired. After the Property is acquired, Administrative Agent shall appoint and retain as a property manager for the Property one or more Persons (individually and collectively, “Property Manager”) experienced in the management, leasing, sale and/or dispositions of similar properties.
After consulting with the Property Manager, Administrative Agent shall prepare a written plan for the operation, management, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition of the Property and a budget for the aforesaid, which may include a reasonable management fee payable to Administrative Agent (the “Business Plan”). Administrative Agent will deliver the Business Plan not later than the sixtieth (60th) day after the Acquisition Date to each Lender with a written request for approval of the Business Plan. If the Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent and the Property Manager shall adhere to such Business Plan until a different Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders. Administrative Agent may propose an amendment to any such Business Plan as it deems appropriate, which shall also be subject to Required Lender approval. If any such Business Plan (as may be amended) proposed by Administrative Agent is not approved by the Required Lenders (or if sixty (60) days have elapsed following the Acquisition Date without a Business Plan being proposed by Administrative Agent), any Lender may propose an alternative Business Plan, which Administrative Agent shall submit to all Lenders for their approval. If an alternative Business Plan is approved by the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent may appoint one of the approving Lenders to implement the alternative Business Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, unless in violation of an approved Business Plan or otherwise in an emergency situation, Administrative Agent shall, subject to subsection (a) of this Section, have the right but not the obligation to take any action in connection with the Property (including actions with respect to Taxes, Common Charges, Insurance Premiums, completion of construction, operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale and disposition), or any portion thereof.
(c) Upon request by Administrative Agent or Borrowers at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to sell, transfer or release any such liens of particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section; provided, however, that (i) Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release, transfer or sale on terms that, in Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the transfer, release or sale without recourse, representation or warranty, and (ii) such transfer, release or sale shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the obligations of either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Xxxxxxxxx.
00
(x) If only two (2) Lenders exist at the time Administrative Agent receives a purchase offer for Collateral for which one of the Lenders does not consent within ten (10) Business Days after notification from Administrative Agent, the consenting Lender may offer (“Purchase Offer”) to purchase all of non-consenting Lender’s right, title and interest in the Collateral for a purchase price equal to non-consenting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the net proceeds anticipated from such sale of such Collateral (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent, including the undiscounted face principal amount of any purchase money obligation not payable at closing) (“Net Sale Proceeds”). Within ten (10) Business Days thereafter the non-consenting Lender shall be deemed to have accepted such Purchase Offer unless the non-consenting Lender notifies Administrative Agent that it elects to purchase all of the consenting Lender’s right, title and interest in the Collateral for a purchase price payable by the non-consenting Lender in an amount equal to the consenting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Net Sale Proceeds. Any amount payable hereunder by a Lender shall be due on the earlier to occur of the closing of the sale of the Collateral or ninety (90) days after the Purchase Offer, regardless of whether the Collateral has been sold.
5.11 Application of Payments. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement with respect to Defaulting Lenders, aggregate principal and interest payments, payments for Indemnified Liabilities and/or foreclosure or sale of Collateral, and net operating income from the Collateral during any period it is owned by Administrative Agent or its designee on behalf of the Lenders (“Payments”) shall be apportioned pro rata among Lenders and payments of any fees (other than fees designated for Administrative Agent’s separate account) shall, as applicable, be apportioned pro rata among Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all Payments due and payable to Defaulting Lenders shall be due and payable to and be apportioned pro rata among Administrative Agent and Electing Lenders. Such apportionment shall be in the proportion that the Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts paid by them bears to the total Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts of such Defaulting Lender. Such apportionment shall be made until Administrative Agent and Lenders have been paid in full for the Defaulting Lender Payment Amounts. All pro rata Payments shall be remitted to Administrative Agent and all such payments not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of the Collateral received by Administrative Agent, shall be applied first, to pay any fees, indemnities, costs, expenses (including those in Section 5.7) and reimbursements then due to Administrative Agent; second, to pay any fees, costs, expenses and reimbursements then due to Lenders; third, to pay pro rata interest and late charges due in respect of the Indebtedness and Administrative Agent Advances; fourth, to pay or prepay pro rata principal of and to secure any Administrative Agent Advances; fifth, to repay the Loan; sixth, to pay any indebtedness or other liabilities of Borrowers under any Interest Rate Protection Transactions with Administrative Agent (or its affiliates); and last, to Borrowers.
5.12 Benefit. Except as may expressly be otherwise provided herein, the terms and conditions of this Article are inserted for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders; the same may be waived in whole or in part, with or without terms or conditions, without prejudicing Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights to later assert them in whole or in part.
5.13 Co‑Agents; Lead Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “co‑agent,” “bookrunner,” “book manager,” or “lead manager,” “arranger,” “lead arranger” or “co-arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of Lenders or other Persons so identified as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “co-agent” or “lead manager” shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the other Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.
ARTICLE 6 - GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
6.1 Consents; Borrower’s Indemnity. Except where otherwise expressly provided in the Loan Documents, in any instance where the approval, consent or the exercise of Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s judgment is required, the granting or denial of such approval or consent and the exercise of such judgment shall be (a) within the sole discretion of Administrative Agent or such Lender; (b) deemed to have been given only by a specific writing intended for the purpose given and executed by Administrative Agent or such Lender; and (c) free from any limitation or requirement of reasonableness. Notwithstanding any approvals or consents by Administrative Agent or
54
any Lender, neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation or responsibility whatsoever for the adequacy, form or content of any Budget, any appraisal, any contract, any Marriott Agreement, any Lease, or any other matter incident to the Property. Any inspection, appraisal or audit of any of the Property or the books and records of either Borrower or Operating Lessee, or the procuring of documents and financial and other information, by or on behalf of Administrative Agent shall be for Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ protection only, and shall not constitute an assumption of responsibility to either Borrower, Operating Lessee or any other Person with regard to the condition, value, maintenance or operation of the Property, or relieve either Borrower or Operating Lessee of any of its obligations. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any duty to supervise or to inspect the Property. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be liable or responsible for, and Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any claim, action, loss or cost (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs) arising from or relating to (i) (A) any defect in the Property or the Improvements, (B) any failure to protect or insure the Improvements, (C) in connection with the protection and preservation of any of the Collateral or performance of any work at the Property (including any failure to pay any filing, registration and recording fee, recordation and transfer tax, title search or examination fee, engineer fee, Tax, Common Charge, Insurance Premium, or other cost of the operation, management, improvement, maintenance, repair, sale or disposition of any Collateral), (D) the performance or failure of performance of any obligation of either Borrower or Operating Lessee hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, (E) any transaction, act, omission, event or circumstance in any way connected with the Property, including any bodily injury, death or property damage occurring in, upon or in the vicinity of the Property through any cause whatsoever at any time, (F) any Lease, (G) any Condominium Document, (H) any Marriott Agreement, (I) any Purchase contract or (I) any other agreement to which either Borrower or Operating Lessee is a party or by which any of the Collateral is bound; (ii) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorney fees and costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (A) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered by either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (B) any Commitment or the Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (C) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; (iii) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action arising out of or relating to the use of Information or other materials obtained through internet, Intralinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement, except if as a result of such Indemnitee’s breach of the terms of Section 6.6; and (iv) any and all liabilities, losses, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney fees and costs) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding and whether it is defeated, successful or withdrawn, (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that such indemnity shall not, as to all Indemnitees, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnitee. Nothing, including any advance or acceptance of any document or instrument, shall be construed as a representation or warranty, express or implied, to any party by Administrative Agent or Lenders. Inspection shall not constitute an acknowledgment or representation by Administrative Agent or any Lender that there has been or will be compliance with the Loan Documents, applicable Governmental Approvals, Laws, governmental requirements or restrictive covenants. Administrative Agent’s failure to inspect shall not constitute a waiver of any of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ rights under the Loan Documents or at Law or in equity.
6.2 Miscellaneous. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, all of which are identical, and all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The Loan Documents are for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent, Lenders, Borrowers and Operating Lessee and are not for the benefit of any third party. A determination that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Agreement to any
55
Person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other Persons or circumstances. Time shall be of the essence with respect to the obligations of Borrowers and Operating Lessee under the Loan Documents.
6.3 Notices.
6.3.1 Modes of Delivery; Changes. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, and other communications required or which any party desires to give under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be in writing. Unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, all such notices and other communications shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally recognized overnight courier, by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile (with, subject to Subsection 6.3.2 below, a confirmatory duplicate copy sent by first class United States mail), addressed to the party to whom directed or by (subject to Subsection 6.3.3 below) electronic mail addressed to Borrowers and Operating Lessee at the addresses set forth at the end of this Agreement or to Administrative Agent or Lenders at the addresses specified for notices on the Schedule of Lenders (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed). Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given and received either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of facsimile, upon receipt; provided, however, that service of a notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in any Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any Person in any situation or for any reason.
6.3.2 Effectiveness of Facsimile and Emailed Documents and Signatures. The Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile and/or emailed .PDF document. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on all parties to the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile and/or emailed .PDF document or signature.
6.3.3 Limited Use of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail and internet and intranet websites may be used only to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information, and to distribute Loan Documents for execution by the parties thereto and executed Loan Documents among such parties, and may not be used for any other purpose.
6.3.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of either Borrower or Operating Lessee even if (a) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (b) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of either Borrower or Operating Lessee. If a Lender does not notify or inform Administrative Agent of whether or not it consents to, or approves of or agrees to any matter of any nature whatsoever with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is required under the express provisions of this Agreement or with respect to which its consent, approval or agreement is otherwise requested by Administrative Agent, in connection with the Loan or any matter pertaining to the Loan, within ten (10) Business Days after such consent, approval or agreement is requested by Administrative Agent, such Lender shall be deemed to have given its consent, approval or agreement, as the case may be, with respect to the matter in question; provided that such deeming provision shall run solely to the benefit of Administrative Agent and the other Lenders and in no event shall run to the benefit of either Borrower, Operating Lessee or any of their respective Affiliates.
6.4 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of either Borrower or Operating Lessee is made to Administrative Agent or any Lender, or Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to
56
be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, to a depository (including Administrative Agent, any Lender or its or their Affiliates) for returned items or insufficient collected funds, or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.
6.5 Successors and Assigns.
(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that none of Borrowers and Operating Lessee may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by either Borrower or Operating Lessee without such consent shall be null and void ab initio), and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section 6.5, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section 6.5, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section 6.5 (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any such party shall be null and void ab initio). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent permitted in subsection (d) of this Section 6.5 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i) Minimum Amounts.
(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and Pro Rata Share of the Loan at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section 6.5 in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section 6.5, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes the Pro Rata Share of the Loan outstanding) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding Pro Rata Share of the Loan that is subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if the “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $10,000,000 unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to a lesser amount.
(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Loan and the Commitment assigned.
(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section 6.5 and, in addition:
57
(A) the consent of Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required unless (1) a Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof, and provided, further, that Borrowers’ consent shall not be required during the primary syndication of the Loan; and
(B) the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.
(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in Administrative Agent’s standard form.
(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor or any of either Borrower’s, Operating Lessee’s or Guarantor’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural Person.
(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Borrowers and Administrative Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Share of the Loan previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata Share of the Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement with respect to Borrowers’ obligations surviving termination of this Agreement); provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, Borrowers (at their expense) shall execute and deliver a substitute Note substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “H” to the assignee Lender (and assignor Lender, if applicable). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.
58
(c) Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrowers (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and the principal amount (and stated interest) of each Lender’s Pro Rata Share 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 absent manifest error, and Borrowers, Administrative Agent and 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. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, either Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or either Borrower, Guarantor or any of either Borrower’s or Guarantor’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, including Operating Lessee) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or its Pro Rata Share of the Loan owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrowers, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 5.7 without regard to the existence of any participation.
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the second proviso of Section 6.9 that affects such Participant. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 1.7, 1.8 or 1.11 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amount (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 identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loan, letters of credit 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, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States 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 owners of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(f) Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby acknowledge that (i) Administrative Agent and/or Arranger may, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of either Borrower or Operating Lessee hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (ii) certain Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Borrowers, Operating Lessee, Guarantor or their other respective Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related
59
activities with such Persons’ securities. Borrowers and Operating Lessee hereby agree that (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC”, Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall be deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent, Arranger and Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to Borrowers and Operating Lessee, Guarantor or their other respective Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing for purposes of United States federal and state security Laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 6.6); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information”; and (z) Administrative Agent and Arranger shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower sand Operating Lessee shall be under no obligation to xxxx any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC”. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ARRANGER AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ARRANGER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall Administrative Agent, Arranger or any of their respective Affiliates have any liability to either Borrower, Operating Lessee, any other Loan Party, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of either Borrower’s, Operating Lessee’s, Administrative Agent’s or any other Person’s transmission of any Borrower Materials through the Internet.
6.6 Confidentiality. Each of Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to any Person to the extent requested by any regulatory authority (including self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to any Person to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and such party’s Affiliates; (e) to any Person in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, including any prospective bidder at any foreclosure sale of the Property and any prospective purchaser of the Property after a foreclosure sale or deed in lieu thereof; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any Interest Rate Protection Transaction or credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor; (g) to any Person with the consent of either Borrower; or (h) to any Person to the extent such Information (y) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 6.6 or (z) becomes available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than either Borrower. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Information” means all information received from either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor relating to either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of the Loan, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and information about the Loan, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of the Loan, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
6.7 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders provided by
60
Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, Administrative Agent and, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to either Borrower or Operating Lessee (any such notice being waived by Borrowers and Operating Lessee), to set-off and apply any and all deposits, general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, at any time held by or owing by Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the credit or the account of either Borrower or Operating Lessee against any and all Indebtedness of Borrowers and Operating Lessee, irrespective of whether or not Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Indebtedness may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable depositor indebtedness. After obtaining the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrowers, Operating Lessee and Administrative Agent after any such set‑off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set‑off and application. No Lender shall have any liability to either Borrower or Operating Lessee for making any such set-off made without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, but at the request of Administrative Agent, such Lender shall promptly restore the amount that it set-off.
6.8 Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the portions of the Loan advanced by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the portions of the Loan made by them, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such portions of the Loan or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 6.4 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered without further interest thereon. Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off), but subject to Section 6.7 with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrowers in the amount of such participation. Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 6.8 and will in each case notify Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.
6.9 Amendments; Survival. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to amend (whether pursuant to a separate intercreditor agreement, co-lender agreement or otherwise) any of the terms, conditions or agreements set forth in Article 5 or as to any other matter in the Loan Documents respecting the sharing of payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders. Subject to the foregoing, Administrative Agent may amend or waive any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by any party to the Loan Documents therefrom which amendment, waiver or consent is intended to be within Administrative Agent’s discretion or determination, or otherwise in Administrative Agent’s reasonable determination is ministerial in nature; provided, however, that otherwise no such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective unless in writing, signed by the Required Lenders and Borrowers or the applicable party to the Loan Documents, as the case may be, and acknowledged by Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; and provided further that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall:
(a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 4.2), without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of a Default shall not constitute an extension or increase in any Lender’s Commitment);
61
(b) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment or mandatory prepayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;
(c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any portion of the Loan or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, however, that Administrative Agent may waive any obligation of Borrowers to pay interest at the Default Rate and/or late charges for periods of up to thirty (30) days, and only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of Borrowers to pay interest at the Default Rate or late charges thereafter, or to amend the definition of and provisions relating to the “Default Rate” or “late charges”;
(d) change the unpaid principal amount of the Loan which is required for Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;
(e) change the definition of “Pro Rata Share” or “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;
(f) amend this Section or Section 6.8 without the written consent of each Lender; or
(g) release the liability of Guarantor under the Guaranty without the written consent of each Lender (except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms thereof).
and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (ii) the Fee Letter and the Indemnity Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that any waiver or amendment requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.
This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until all Obligations are paid in full in immediately available funds and all of Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ obligations under this Agreement are terminated; and all representations and warranties and all provisions herein for indemnity of the Indemnitees, Administrative Agent and Lenders (and any other provisions herein specified to survive) shall survive payment in full, satisfaction or discharge of the Indebtedness, the resignation or removal of Administrative Agent or replacement of any Lender, and any release or termination of this Agreement or of any other Loan Documents.
6.10 Costs and Expenses. Without limiting any Loan Document and to the extent not prohibited by applicable Laws, Borrowers shall pay or, if applicable, reimburse to Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of written demand therefor and shall indemnify Administrative Agent from, all reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs, and expenses paid or incurred by (a) Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and any amendments, approvals, consents, waivers and releases requested by either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor from time to time) and (b) Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the disbursement, administration or collection of the Loan the enforcement of the obligations of either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor or the exercise of any right or remedy of Administrative Agent or any Lender, including in the case of clauses (a) and (b) (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of Administrative Agent’s counsel and, in the case of collection and enforcement, each Lender’s counsel; (ii) Appraisal, re‑appraisal and survey costs performed in connection with closing and to the extent otherwise required to be paid by either Borrower or Operating Lessee under this Agreement; (iii) title insurance charges and premiums in connection with closing or as otherwise expressly provided herein; (iv) title search or examination costs, including abstracts, abstractors’ certificates and uniform commercial code searches performed in connection with closing or as otherwise
62
expressly provided herein; (v) judgment and tax lien searches for each Borrower, Operating Lessee and Guarantor, if any, performed in connection with closing or as otherwise expressly provided herein; (vi) escrow fees charged by the title company(ies) or its/their agent(s) in connection with closing; (vii) recordation taxes, documentary taxes, transfer taxes and mortgage taxes in connection with closing and to the extent otherwise required to be paid by either Borrower under this Agreement; (viii) filing and recording fees in connection with closing and to the extent otherwise required to be paid by either Borrower under this Agreement; and (ix) loan brokerage fees for any broker dealt with by either Borrower, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof in connection with the making of the Loan; provided, however that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of the Person seeking reimbursement. Borrowers shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, if the Obligations or any part thereof are sought to be collected by or through an attorney at law, whether or not involving probate, appellate, administrative or bankruptcy proceedings. Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 6.10 shall survive the delivery of the Loan Documents, the making of advances, the payment in full of the Indebtedness, the release or reconveyance of any of the Loan Documents, the foreclosure of the Mortgage or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, any bankruptcy or other debtor relief proceeding, and any other event whatsoever.
6.11 Initial Funding of Loan; Tax Forms.
(a) No portion of the Loan advanced by any Lender on the Closing Date shall be funded or held with “plan assets” of any “benefit plan investors” within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA unless such Lender relied on an available prohibited transaction exemption, all the requirements of which have been met.
(b) (i) Each Lender, and each holder of a participation interest herein, that is not a “United States Person” (a “Foreign Lender”) within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall , to the extent it is legally able to do so, deliver to Administrative Agent, prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding (or upon accepting an assignment or receiving a participation interest herein), two duly signed completed copies of either Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from, or reduction of, withholding on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement) or Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement) of the United States Internal Revenue Service or such other evidence satisfactory to Borrowers and Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 881(c) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall (A) promptly submit to Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States Laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to Borrowers and Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrowers pursuant to the Loan Documents, (B) promptly notify Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (C) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lenders, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its lending office, if any) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that Borrowers make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Foreign Lender. 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 Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent such document prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of the preceding sentence, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
63
(ii) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Lender), shall deliver to the Administrative Agent on the date when such Foreign Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of the Administrative Agent (in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A) two duly signed completed copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Lender as set forth above, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Lender acts for its own account that is not subject to U.S. withholding tax, and (B) two duly signed completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, to establish that such Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Lender.
(iii) Borrowers shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Foreign Lender under Section 1.11, (A) with respect to any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld on the basis of the information, certificates or statements of exemption such Lender transmits with a United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, or W-8IMY pursuant to this subsection (b) of this Section, or (B) if such Lender shall have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this subsection (b); provided that (y) if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirement of this subsection (b) on the date such Lender became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account with respect to any payment under any of the Loan Documents, nothing in this subsection (b) shall relieve Borrowers of their obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 1.11 in the event that, as a result of any Change in Law, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender or other Person for the account of which such Lender receives any sums payable under any of the Loan Documents is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a reduced rate and (z) if following any such Change in Law, an assignee Lender becomes party to this Agreement, it shall be entitled to the same protection from Borrowers as its assignor with respect to any such Change in Law.
(iv) Administrative Agent may, without reduction, withhold any Taxes required to be deducted and withheld from any payment under any of the Loan Documents with respect to which Borrowers are not required to pay additional amounts under this subsection (b).
(c) Upon the request of Administrative Agent, each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Administrative Agent two duly signed completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. If such Lender fails to deliver such forms, then Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable back-up withholding tax imposed by the Code, without reduction.
(d) If any Governmental Authority asserts that Administrative Agent did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest and costs and expenses (including attorney fees) of Administrative Agent. Borrowers shall, and do hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to this Section 6.11(d). The obligation of Lenders and Borrowers under this subsection shall survive the removal or replacement of a Lender, the payment of all Indebtedness, the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent and termination of this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document.
6.12 Further Assurances. Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall, upon Administrative Agent’s request, (a) promptly correct any defect, error or omission in any Loan Document; (b) execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure, record or file such further instruments and do such further acts as Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary, desirable or proper to carry out the purposes of the Loan Documents and to identify and subject to the liens and security interest of the Loan Documents any property intended to be covered thereby, including any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements, or appurtenances to the Property; (c) execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure, file or record
64
any document or instrument Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary, desirable or proper to protect the liens or the security interest under the Loan Documents against the rights or interests of third Persons; and (d) provide such certificates, documents, reports, information, affidavits and other instruments and do such further acts deemed necessary, desirable or proper by Administrative Agent to comply with the requirements of any agency having jurisdiction over Administrative Agent. In addition, at any time, and from time to time, upon the written request by Administrative Agent or any Lender, Borrowers will, at Borrowers’ expense, provide any and all further instruments, certificates and other documents as may, in the opinion of Administrative Agent or such Lender, be necessary in order to verify Borrowers’ identities and backgrounds in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent or such Lender.
6.13 Inducement to Lenders. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (a) are made to induce Lenders to make the Loan and extend any other credit to or for the account of Borrowers pursuant hereto, and Administrative Agent and Lenders are relying thereon, and will continue to rely thereon, and (b) shall survive any bankruptcy proceedings involving either Borrower, Operating Lessee, any SPC Party, any Constituent Member of either Borrower or Operating Lessee, Guarantor or the Property, foreclosure, or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure.
6.14 Forum. Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably submits generally and unconditionally for itself and in respect of its property to the jurisdiction of any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the State specified in Section 6.20 and to the jurisdiction of any state court or any United States federal court, sitting in the state in which the Property is located, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Indebtedness. Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such court and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum. Each party to this Agreement hereby agrees and consents that, in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable Law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the state specified in Section 6.20 may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to such party at its address for notice stated in the Loan Documents, or at a subsequent address of which Administrative Agent received actual notice from such party in accordance with the Loan Documents, and service so made shall be complete five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed. Nothing herein shall affect the right of Administrative Agent to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or limit the right of Administrative Agent to bring proceedings against any party in any other court or jurisdiction.

6.17 Records. The unpaid amount of the Loan and the amount of any other credit extended by Administrative Agent or Lenders to or for the account of Borrowers set forth on the books and records of Administrative Agent shall be presumptive evidence of the amount thereof owing and unpaid, but failure to record any such amount

6.22 Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement between Borrowers, Operating Lessee, Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to the transactions arising in connection with the Loan, and supersede all prior written or oral understandings and agreements between Borrowers, Operating Lessee, Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to the matters addressed in the Loan Documents.

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.
6.23 Limitation on Liability. Borrowers and Operating Lessee waive any right to assert or make any claim against Administrative Agent or any Lender (or to xxx Administrative Agent or any Lender upon any claim for) for any special, indirect, incidental, punitive or consequential damages in respect of any breach or wrongful conduct, whether the claim is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by law, in connection with, arising out of or in any way related to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby, or any act, omission or event in connection therewith.

Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall delivery any such agreement to Administrative Agent promptly after entering into same.
6.24 Third Parties; Benefit. All conditions to the obligation of Lenders or Administrative Agent to make advances hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lenders, Administrative Agent and their permitted assigns and no other Persons shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lenders or Administrative Agent will refuse to make advances in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be the beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lenders or Administrative Agent at any time in the sole and absolute exercise of their discretion.

(b) nothing contained in this Agreement (including the provisions of this Section 6.26) or the other Loan Documents shall constitute a limitation of liability of Borrower or Operating Lessee or any of their assets; and

Neither the negative capital account of any member (direct or indirect) in Borrowers or Operating Lessee or in any other member (direct or indirect) in Borrower, nor any obligation of any member (direct or indirect) in Borrowers or Operating Lessee to restore a negative capital account or to contribute or loan capital to Borrowers or Operating Lessee or to any member (direct or indirect) in Borrowers or Operating Lessee in accordance with the terms of any formation documents or operating agreements relating thereto, shall at any time be deemed to be the property or an asset of Borrowers or Operating Lessee (or any such members (direct or indirect)) and Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have no right to collect, enforce or proceed against any such negative capital account or obligation to restore, contribute or loan.
6.27 Waivers.
(a) General. Without notice to, or consent by, either Borrower or Operating Lessee, and in Administrative Agent’s sole and absolute discretion and without prejudice to any Lender or in any way limiting or reducing either Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s liability for all of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent may, subject to Section 6.9: (i) to the extent permitted under the Loan Documents following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, sell, exchange, release or exercise remedies with respect to any or all Collateral, (ii) accept or reject additional Collateral for the Obligations or any portion thereof, (iii) discharge or release any party or parties liable under the Loan Documents, (iv) to the extent permitted under the Loan Documents following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, foreclose or otherwise realize on any Collateral, or attempt to foreclose or otherwise realize on any Collateral, whether such attempt is successful or unsuccessful, and whether such attempt relates to some or all or only some portion of the Collateral, (v) accept or make compositions or other arrangements or file or refrain from filing a claim in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, and
68
(vi) credit payments in such manner and order of priority to principal, interest or other obligations as Administrative Agent may determine in its discretion, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. If Administrative Agent performs any of the actions described in this Section, then Borrowers’ and Operating Lessee’s liability shall continue in full force and effect even if Administrative Agent’s actions impair, diminish or eliminate the subrogation, contribution or reimbursement rights (if any) of either Borrower or Operating Lessee against the other.
(b) Waivers of Rights and Defenses. Each of each Borrower and Operating Lessee waives any right to require Administrative Agent or any Lender to (i) proceed against either Borrower or Operating Lessee, or any particular Collateral or in any particular order of realization, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any Collateral, or (iii) pursue any other right or remedy. Each of each Borrower and Operating Lessee agrees that Administrative Agent (on behalf of Lenders) may proceed against either Borrower or Operating Lessee with respect to its Obligations without taking any actions against the other party and without proceeding against or exhausting any other Collateral. Each of each Borrower and Operating Lessee agrees that Administrative Agent (on behalf of Lenders) may unqualifiedly exercise (or refrain from exercising) in its sole discretion any or all rights and remedies available to it against either Borrower or Operating Lessee without impairing Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies (on behalf of Lenders) in enforcing the Obligations of the other party under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, as to which Borrowers’ and Operating Lessee’s liabilities shall remain independent and unconditional. Each of each Borrower and Operating Lessee agrees and acknowledges that Administrative Agent’s exercise of certain of such rights or remedies may affect or eliminate either Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s right of subrogation or recovery (if any) against the other, and that Borrowers and Operating Lessee may incur a partially or totally non-reimbursable liability in performing its Obligations. Without limiting the generality of any other waivers in this Agreement, each of each Borrower and Operating Lessee expressly waives any statutory or other right that such Borrower or Operating Lessee might otherwise have to require Administrative Agent to exhaust the Collateral held with respect to the other party before Administrative Agent (on behalf of Lenders) may proceed against the Collateral owned by such party.
(c) Additional Waivers. Each of each Borrower and Operating Lessee waives diligence and all demands, protest, presentments and notices of every kind or nature except notices of default, notices to cure and notices that, in any of the foregoing cases, are either required by law or by the Loan Documents, including notices of protest, dishonor, nonpayment, acceptance of the Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the creation, renewal, extension, modification or accrual of any such Obligations. No failure or delay on Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s part in exercising any power, right or privilege under the Loan Documents shall impair or waive any such power, right or privilege.
6.28 Full Knowledge. Each of each Borrower and Operating Lessee acknowledges that it has had a full and adequate opportunity to review the Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated therein and all underlying facts relating to such transactions. Each of each Borrower and Operating Lessee agrees that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any duty, whether now or in the future, to disclose to either Borrower or Operating Lessee any information pertaining to either Borrower, Operating Lessee, any Collateral or any other Person.
6.29 Receipt of Adequate Consideration. Each of each Borrower and Operating Lessee acknowledges that it has received adequate consideration for execution of the Loan Documents to which it is a party by virtue of Lenders’ making the Loan (which benefit Borrowers and Operating Lessee).
6.30 Lenders’ Disgorgement of Payments. Upon payment of all or any portion of the Loan, all Obligations under the Loan Documents shall continue and remain in full force and effect if all or any part of such payment is, pursuant to any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding or otherwise, avoided or recovered directly or indirectly from Administrative Agent or any Lender as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, irrespective of (a) any notice of revocation given by either Borrower prior to such avoidance or recovery, or (b) payment in full of the Loan. Borrowers’ liability under the Loan Documents shall continue until all periods have expired within which Administrative Agent or Lenders could (on account of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, whether or not then pending, affecting either Borrower or any other Person) be required to return or repay any amount paid at any time on account of the Loan. If, in any such proceeding, any party seeks to require Administrative Agent or any Lender to disgorge or repay any payments previously made by either Borrower to Administrative Agent or such Lender, then Borrowers shall be obligated to pay Administrative Agent or such Lender, within ten (10) days after such written request,
69
an amount equal to the amount adjudicated to be disgorged or repaid.
6.31 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), Borrowers and Operating Lessee acknowledge and agree, and acknowledge the understanding of Guarantor and each Affiliate of each Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor that is a party to any Loan Document (collectively with Borrower and Operating Lessee, the “Loan Parties”), that (a)(i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by Administrative Agent, Arranger and Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Borrowers and each other Loan Party, on the one hand, and Administrative Agent, Arranger and Lenders, on the other hand, (ii) each Borrower and each other Loan Party has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (iii) each Borrower and each other Loan Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b)(i) Administrative Agent, Arranger and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for either Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (ii) nether Administrative Agent, Arranger nor any Lender has any obligation to either Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (c) Administrative Agent, Arranger and Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged or may hereafter engage in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrowers, the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and neither Administrative Agent, Arranger nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to either Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower and Operating Lessee hereby waive and release any claims that it may have against Administrative Agent, Arranger or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents.
6.32 Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower acknowledges, agrees, represents and warrants the following:
(a) Inducement. Lenders have been induced to make the Loan to Borrowers in part based upon the assurances by each Borrower that each Borrower desires that the Note and the Obligations be honored and enforced as separate obligations of each Borrower should Administrative Agent and Lenders desire to do so.
(b) Liability of Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or elsewhere, each Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable with each other Borrower for the Obligations, and each of the Obligations shall be secured by the Collateral. Each Borrower acknowledges that it is a co-borrower hereunder and is jointly and severally liable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any payment made by a Borrower in respect of Obligations owing by one or more Borrowers shall be deemed a payment of such Obligations by and on behalf of all Borrowers. The Loan shall be deemed to be extended to each Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon any request, notice or communication received by them from any Borrower on behalf of all Borrowers, and shall be entitled to treat their giving of any notice hereunder to any Borrower in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement as notice to each and all Borrowers.
Each Borrower agrees that the joint and several liability of Borrowers provided for herein shall not be impaired or affected by any modification, supplement, restatement, replacement, extension or amendment of any contract or agreement to which the other Borrowers may hereafter agree (other than an agreement signed by Administrative Agent and the Lenders specifically releasing such liability), nor by any delay, extension of time, renewal, compromise or other indulgence, and hereby consents to be bound thereby as fully and as effectually as if it had expressly agreed thereto in
70
advance. The liability of each Borrower is direct and unconditional as to all of the Obligations, and may be enforced without requiring Administrative Agent or any Lender to first resort to any other right, remedy or security. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, each Borrower hereby expressly waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations, the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and any requirement that Administrative Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against either Borrower or any other Person or collateral.
Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives and relinquishes the other Borrower from all “claims” (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) to which such Borrower is or would be entitled by virtue of the provisions of the first paragraph of this Section 6.32(b) or the performance of such Borrower’s obligations thereunder, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise), reimbursement, contribution, exoneration or similar right, or indemnity, or any right of recourse to security for any of the Obligations, in each case until all of the Obligations have been paid in full in immediately available funds and this Agreement is terminated.

Such releases of any Residential Unit, Presidential Suite 2601 or Time Share Floor shall not impair or otherwise affect the Obligations of either Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor under any Loan Documents, or any of the Liens on the other Collateral, including the balance of the Property.

SUBSTITUTE NOTE
$______________________ _______________, _____
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SHR Essex House, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and SHR Essex House Condominiums, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (collectively, “Borrowers” and each individually a “Borrower”) hereby jointly and severally promise to pay to the order of [_____________________] (“Lender”) under that certain Loan Agreement (defined below) by and among Lender, certain other lenders party thereto from time to time, Bank of America N.A., a national banking association, as administrative agent for Lender and such other lenders (together with any and all of its successors and assigns, “Administrative Agent”), Borrowers and DTRS Essex House, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as operating lessee, dated as of September [____], 2012 (the “Loan Agreement”), without offset, in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America, at Administrative Agent’s Office as defined in the Loan Agreement, the principal sum of _______________________________________ DOLLARS ($_______________________), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding as hereinafter provided. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Loan Agreement.
1. Note; Interest; Payment Schedule and Maturity Date. This Note is one of the substitute notes referred to in the definition of “Note” set forth in the Loan Agreement and is entitled to the benefits thereof and subject to prepayment in whole or part as provided therein. The entire principal balance of this Note then unpaid shall be due and payable at the times as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable at the times and at the interest rate as set forth in the Loan Agreement until all principal and accrued interest owing on this Note shall have been fully paid and satisfied. Any amount not paid when due and payable hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, bear interest and if applicable a late charge as set forth in the Loan Agreement. All payments made on account of all principal, interest and other sums due under this Note shall be made to Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 1.13 of the Loan Agreement and the other terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement.
2. Security; Loan Documents. The security for this Note includes one or more mortgages, deeds of trust and/or other security agreements and instruments (each of which, as each of the same may have been or may be amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, is herein called a “Mortgage”) dated as of September 14, 2012 from Borrowers and/or Operating Lessee for the benefit of Administrative Agent, covering certain properties located in the United States of America described therein.
3. Defaults.
(a) A default (“Default”) under this Note shall mean the occurrence of any “Default” under the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders shall have the right, among other things, to declare the unpaid principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note, and all other amounts due hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, immediately due and payable (and upon such declaration, the same shall be immediately due and payable) (in each case, to the extent such amounts do not automatically become immediately due and payable pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Agreement); to foreclose any liens and security interests on any Collateral; and to exercise any of its other rights, powers and remedies under this Note, under any other Loan Document, or at Law or in equity.
(b) All of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of Administrative Agent and Lenders provided for in the Loan Document, at law or in equity (together, “Rights”) are cumulative of each other, and no Right conferred upon or reserved to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other Rights. No delay or omission of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any Right accruing upon the happening of a Default shall impair any such Right or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or any acquiescence therein. No delay or omission on the part of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise any option for acceleration of the maturity of the Indebtedness, or for foreclosure of any Mortgage following any Default as aforesaid, or any other option granted to Administrative Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents in any one or more instances, or the acceptances by
Ex. H-1
Administrative Agent or Lenders of any partial payment on account of the Indebtedness, shall constitute a waiver of any such Default, and each such option shall remain continuously in full force and effect. No Right herein conferred upon or reserved to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders is intended to be exclusive of any other Rights provided for in any of the other Loan Documents. The resort to any Right shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other Right or preclude any other or further exercise thereof. Every Right may be pursued separately, successively or together against each Borrower, Operating Lessee, Guarantor or any Collateral or any part thereof, and every Right may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient by the Required Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, the acceptance by Administrative Agent or any Lender from time to time of any payment under the Loan Documents which is past due or which is less than the payment in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment, shall not (i) constitute a waiver of or impair or extinguish the exercise of any Right at the time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such Right, or (ii) constitute a waiver of the requirement of punctual payment and performance or a novation in any respect.
4. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrowers and Lender and their respective successors and assigns permitted under the Loan Agreement. The foregoing sentence shall not be construed to permit either Borrower to assign the Loan except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents. As further provided in the Loan Agreement, a Lender may, sell, transfer, or assign all on a portion of its interest in this Note, any Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, to the extent set forth in the Loan Agreement.
5. General Provisions. Time shall be of the essence with respect to the obligations of Borrowers under this Note. The obligations of Borrowers under this Note are joint and several as more fully described in the Loan Agreement. Borrowers and all sureties, endorsers, guarantors and any other party now or hereafter liable for the payment of this Note in whole or in part, hereby severally (a) waive demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor and of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and all other notices (except any notices which are specifically required by this Note or any other Loan Document), filing of suit and diligence in collecting this Note or enforcing any of the security herefor; (b) agree to any substitution, subordination, exchange or release of any such security or the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon; (c) agree that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be required first to institute suit or exhaust its remedies hereon against either Borrower or others liable or to become liable hereon or to perfect or enforce its rights against them or any security herefor except to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Agreement to the contrary; (d) consent to any extensions or postponements of time of payment of this Note for any period or periods of time and to any partial payments, before or after maturity, and to any other indulgences with respect hereto, without notice thereof to any of them; (e) irrevocably submit generally and unconditionally for themselves and in respect of their respective property to the jurisdiction of any state court, or any United States federal court, sitting in the State specified in Section 6.20 of the Loan Agreement and to the jurisdiction of any state court or any United States federal court, sitting in the state in which any of the Property is located over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Note or the Indebtedness, and irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any such court and any claim that any such court is an inconvenient forum; (f) waive the benefit of all homestead and similar exemptions as to this Note; and (g) agree that their liability under this Note shall not be affected or impaired by any determination that any security interest or lien taken by Lender to secure this Note is invalid or unperfected. A determination that any provision of this Note is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination that the application of any provision of this Note to any Person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other Persons or circumstances. This Note may not be amended except in a writing executed by Borrowers, Administrative Agent and, subject to and in accordance with the terms of Section 6.9 of the Loan Agreement, the applicable Lenders. Captions and headings in this Note are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing it. This Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
6. Notices. Any notice, request, or demand to or upon Borrowers or Lender shall be deemed to have been properly given or made when delivered in accordance with the Loan Agreement.
7. No Usury. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrowers, Administrative Agent and all Lenders at all times to comply with applicable state Law or applicable United States federal Law (to the extent
Ex. H-2
that it permits a Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under state Law) and that this Section shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note and the other Loan Documents. If applicable state or federal Law should at any time be judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if Administrative Agent’s exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Borrowers results in Borrowers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable Law, then it is Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other indebtedness and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable Law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.
8. Final Agreement. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
This Note, together with [those other certain Substitute Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $________ dated the date hereof made by Borrowers in favor of the other Lenders (collectively, the “Other Substitute Note[s]”)], is given in substitution of (and without repayment of) that certain [Consolidated, Amended and Restated Note dated September [___], 2012] in the principal amount of [$190,000,000] made by Borrowers in favor of [Agent] (the “Original Note”). This Note, together with the Other Substitute Note[s], evidences the same indebtedness evidenced by the Original Note and is not intended to constitute a novation of the Original Note nor impair or modify the priority of any Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents. This Note, together with the Other Substitute Note[s], constitute the “Note” as defined in the Loan Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrowers have duly executed this Note as of the date first above written.
