Section 2.15 and (2) a LIBOR Loan may be Converted or Continued only on the last
day of the applicable Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. Except as otherwise
provided in this Agreement, each Election, Continuation and Conversion shall be
applicable to each Bank's Loan in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.
SECTION 2.14 Minimum Amounts. With respect to the Loans as a whole, each
---------------
Election and each Conversion shall be in an amount at least equal to $2,000,000
and in integral multiples of $100,000.
SECTION 2.15 Certain Notices Regarding Elections, Conversions and
-----------------------------------------------------------
Continuations of Loans. Notices by Borrower to Administrative Agent of
------------------------
Elections, Conversions and Continuations of LIBOR Loans shall be irrevocable and
shall be effective only if received by Administrative Agent not later than 10:00
a.m. (New York time) on the number of Banking Days prior to the date of the
relevant Election, Conversion or Continuation specified below:
Number of
Notice Banking Days Prior
------ ------------------
Conversions into Base Rate Loans two (2)
Election of, Conversions into or Continuations as, LIBOR Loans three (3)
Promptly following its receipt of any such notice, Administrative Agent shall so
advise the Banks either by telephone or by facsimile. Each such notice of
Election shall specify the portion of the amount of the advance that is to be
LIBOR Loans (subject to Section 2.14) and the duration of the Interest Period
applicable thereto (subject to Section 2.06); each such notice of Conversion
shall specify the LIBOR Loans or Base Rate Loans to be Converted; and each such
notice of Conversion or Continuation shall specify the date of Conversion or
Continuation (which shall be a Banking Day), the amount thereof (subject to
Section 2.14) and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto
(subject to Section 2.06). In the event that Borrower fails to Elect to have any
portion of an advance be LIBOR Loans, the entire amount of such advance shall
constitute Base Rate Loans. In the event that Borrower fails to Continue LIBOR
Loans within the time period and as otherwise provided in this Section, such
LIBOR Loans will be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day
of the then current applicable Interest Period for such LIBOR Loans.
SECTION 2.16 Late Payment Premium. Borrower shall, at Administrative
----------------------
Agent's option, pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks a late
payment premium in the amount of 4% of any payments of interest under the Loans
made more than fifteen (15) days after the due date thereof, which shall be due
with any such late payment.
20
SECTION 2.17 Letters of Credit. (a) Borrower may request, in lieu of
-------------------
advances of proceeds of the Loans, that the Administrative Agent issue
unconditional, irrevocable standby letters of credit (each, a "Letter of
Credit") for the account of Borrower, payable by sight drafts, for such
beneficiaries and with such other terms as Borrower shall specify.
(b) The amount of any such Letter of Credit shall not exceed the
lesser of (1) $50,000,000 less the amount of all other Letters of Credit then
issued and outstanding or (2) the amount available for disbursement to Borrower
hereunder, it being understood that the amount of each Letter of Credit issued
and outstanding shall effect a reduction, by an equal amount, of the amount
available for disbursement hereunder as provided in Section 2.01.
(c) The amount of each Letter of Credit shall be further subject to
the limitations applicable to amounts of advances set forth in Section 2.03 and
the procedures for the issuance of each Letter of Credit shall be the same as
the procedures applicable to the making of advances as set forth in the first
sentence of Section 2.04. Upon the Administrative Agent's receipt of a request
for the issuance of, and upon its issuance of, each Letter of Credit, it shall
promptly notify each of the Banks.
(d) The Administrative Agent's issuance of each Letter of Credit
shall be subject to Borrower's satisfaction of all conditions precedent to its
entitlement to an advance of proceeds of the Loans.
(e) Each Letter of Credit shall expire no later than the earlier of
the Maturity Date or one (1) year after the date of its issuance.
(f) In connection with, and as a further condition to the issuance
of, each Letter of Credit, Borrower shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an application for the Letter of Credit on the
Administrative Agent's standard form therefor, together with such other
documents, opinions and assurances as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably
require.
(g) In connection with each Letter of Credit, Borrower hereby
covenants to pay to the Administrative Agent the following fees, each payable
quarterly in arrears (on the first Banking Day of each calendar quarter
following the issuance of the Letter of Credit): (i) a fee, payable to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks, computed daily on the amount
of the Letter of Credit issued and outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the
"Banks' L/C Fee Rate" (as hereinafter defined) and (ii) a fee, payable to the
Administrative Agent for its own account, computed daily on the amount of the
Letter of Credit issued and outstanding at a rate per annum of 0.125%. For
purposes of this Agreement, the "Banks' L/C Fee Rate" shall mean, at any time, a
rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans. It is understood
and agreed that the last installment of the fees provided for in this paragraph
(g) with respect to any particular Letter of Credit shall be due and payable on
the first day of the calendar quarter following the return, undrawn, or
cancellation of such Letter of Credit.
(h) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, immediately upon
notice from the Administrative Agent of any drawing under a Letter of Credit,
each Bank shall, notwithstanding the existence of a Default or Event of Default
or the non-satisfaction of any conditions precedent to the making of an advance
of the Loans, advance proceeds of its Loan, in
21
an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such drawing, which advance shall be
made to the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Administrative Agent, for its
own account, for such drawing. Each of the Banks further acknowledges that its
obligation to fund its Pro Rata Share of drawings under Letters of Credit as
aforesaid shall survive the Banks' termination of this Agreement or enforcement
of remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.
(i) Borrower agrees, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and
at the request of the Administrative Agent, (i) to deposit with the
Administrative Agent cash collateral in the amount of all the outstanding
Letters of Credit, which cash collateral shall be held by the Administrative
Agent as security for Borrower's obligations in connection with the Letters of
Credit and (ii) to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such
documents as the Administrative Agent requests to confirm and perfect the
assignment of such cash collateral to the Administrative Agent.
ARTICLE III
YIELD PROTECTION; ILLEGALITY; ETC.
SECTION 3.01 Additional Costs. Borrower shall pay directly to each Bank
----------------
from time to time on demand such amounts as such Bank may determine to be
necessary to compensate it for any increased costs which such Bank determines
are attributable to its making or maintaining a LIBOR Loan, or its obligation to
make or maintain a LIBOR Loan, or its obligation to Convert a Base Rate Loan to
a LIBOR Loan hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Bank
hereunder in respect of its LIBOR Loan or such obligations (such increases in
costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called "Additional
Costs"), in each case resulting from any Regulatory Change which:
(1) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such
Bank under this Agreement or the Notes in respect of any such LIBOR Loan
(other than changes in the rate of general corporate, franchise, branch
profit, net income or other income tax imposed on such Bank or its
Applicable Lending Office by the jurisdiction in which such Bank has its
principal office or such Applicable Lending Office); or
(2) (other than to the extent the LIBOR Reserve Requirement is
taken into account in determining the LIBOR Rate at the commencement of
the applicable Interest Period) imposes or modifies any reserve, special
deposit, deposit insurance or assessment, minimum capital, capital ratio
or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other
assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Bank
(including any LIBOR Loan or any deposits referred to in the definition of
"LIBOR Interest Rate" in Section 1.01), or any commitment of such Bank
(including such Bank's Loan Commitment hereunder); or
(3) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement or the
Notes (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Bank determines that it
shall incur Additional Costs in maintaining a LIBOR Loan, such Bank shall
provide written notice thereof
22
to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), which notice shall include
the dollar amount of the Additional Costs, and Borrower shall have the option,
which option must be exercised within five (5) Banking Days of Borrower's
receipt of such notice, to prepay such LIBOR Loan or to Convert such LIBOR Loan
into a Base Rate Loan, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 3.05.
Without limiting the effect of the provisions of the first paragraph
of this Section, in the event that, by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Bank
either (1) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a
specified level of the amount of a category of deposits of other liabilities of
such Bank which includes deposits by reference to which the LIBOR Interest Rate
is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of
credit or other assets of such Bank which includes loans based on the LIBOR
Interest Rate or (2) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a
category of liabilities or assets which it may hold, then, if such Bank so
elects by notice to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), the
obligation of such Bank to permit Elections of, to Continue, or to Convert Base
Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (in which case the provisions of
Section 3.04 shall be applicable) until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in
effect.
Determinations and allocations by a Bank for purposes of this
Section of the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to the first or second
paragraph of this Section, on its costs or rate of return of making or
maintaining its Loan or portions thereof or on amounts receivable by it in
respect of its Loan or portions thereof, and the amounts required to compensate
such Bank under this Section, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
To the extent that changing the jurisdiction of a Bank's Applicable
Lending Office would have the effect of minimizing Additional Costs, each such
Bank shall use reasonable efforts to make such a change, provided that same
would not otherwise be disadvantageous to each such Bank.
No Bank shall be entitled to any compensation pursuant to this
Section relating to any period more than ninety (90) days prior to the date
notice thereof is given to Borrower by such Bank.
SECTION 3.02 Limitation on Types of Loans. Anything herein to the contrary
----------------------------
notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of the LIBOR Interest Rate
for any Interest Period:
(1) Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits
referred to in the definition of "LIBOR Interest Rate" in Section 1.01 are
not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities
for purposes of determining rates of interest for the LIBOR Loans as
provided in this Agreement; or
(2) a Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive)
and promptly notifies Administrative Agent that the relevant rates of
interest referred to in the definition of "LIBOR Interest Rate" in Section
1.01 upon the basis of which the rate of interest for
23
LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined do not adequately
cover the cost to such Bank of making or maintaining such LIBOR Loan
for such Interest Period;
then Administrative Agent shall give Borrower prompt notice thereof, and so long
as such condition remains in effect, the Banks (or, in the case of the
circumstances described in clause (2) above, the affected Bank) shall be under
no obligation to permit Elections of LIBOR Loans, to Convert Base Rate Loans
into LIBOR Loans or to Continue LIBOR Loans and Borrower shall, on the last
day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the affected outstanding LIBOR
Loans, either (x) prepay the affected LIBOR Loans or (y) Convert the affected
LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans in accordance with Section 2.13.
SECTION 3.03 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
----------
Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Bank or its Applicable
Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan
hereunder, to allow Elections of a LIBOR Loan or to Convert a Base Rate Loan
into a LIBOR Loan, then such Bank shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and
Borrower thereof and such Bank's obligation to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan, or
to permit Elections of, to Continue, or to Convert its Base Rate Loan into, a
LIBOR Loan shall be suspended (in which case the provisions of Section 3.04
shall be applicable) until such time as such Bank may again make and maintain a
LIBOR Loan.
SECTION 3.04 Treatment of Affected Loans. If the obligations of any
------------------------------
Bank to permit an Election of a LIBOR Loan, to Continue its LIBOR Loan, or to
Convert its Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan, are suspended pursuant to Sections
3.01 or 3.03 (each LIBOR Loan so affected being herein called an "Affected
Loan"), such Bank's Affected Loan shall be automatically Converted into a Base
Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period for the Affected
Loan (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Sections 3.01 or 3.03, on such
earlier date as such Bank may specify to Borrower).
To the extent that such Bank's Affected Loan has been so Converted,
all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise be applied to
such Bank's Affected Loan shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loan and
such Bank shall have no obligation to Convert its Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR
Loan.
In the event that the conditions giving rise to the suspension of
any Bank's obligations to permit an Election of a LIBOR Loan, to Continue its
LIBOR Loan, or to Convert its Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan shall cease to
exist, such Bank shall provide Borrower with prompt written notice of same (with
a copy to Administrative Agent), and such Bank shall again be obligated to
permit an Election of a LIBOR Loan, to Continue its LIBOR Loan, or to Convert
its Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan in accordance with this Agreement.
24
SECTION 3.05 Certain Compensation. Borrower shall pay to Administrative
---------------------
Agent for the account of the applicable Bank, upon the request of such Bank
through Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in
the reasonable opinion of such Bank) to compensate it for any loss, cost or
expense which such Bank determines is attributable to:
(1) any payment, prepayment, Conversion or Continuation of a
LIBOR Loan made by such Bank on a date other than the last day of an
applicable Interest Period, whether by reason of acceleration or
otherwise; or
(2) any failure by Borrower for any reason to Convert or Continue
a LIBOR Loan to be Converted or Continued by such Bank on the date
specified therefor in the relevant notice under Section 2.15; or
(3) any failure by Borrower to borrow (or to qualify for a
borrowing of) a LIBOR Loan which would otherwise be made hereunder on the
date specified in the relevant Election notice under Section 2.15 given or
submitted by Borrower.
Without limiting the foregoing, such compensation shall include an
amount equal to the present value (using as the discount rate an interest rate
equal to the rate determined under (2) below) of the excess, if any, of (1) the
amount of interest which otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so
paid, prepaid, Converted or Continued (or not Converted, Continued or borrowed)
for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, Conversion or
Continuation (or failure to Convert, Continue or borrow) to the last day of the
then current applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to
Convert, Continue or borrow, to the last day of the applicable Interest Period
which would have commenced on the date specified therefor in the relevant
notice) at the applicable rate of interest for the LIBOR Loan provided for
herein, over (2) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Bank)
based upon the interest rate which such Bank would have bid in the London
interbank market for Dollar deposits, for amounts comparable to such principal
amount and maturities comparable to such period. A determination of any Bank as
to the amounts payable pursuant to this Section shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.
SECTION 3.06 Capital Adequacy. If any Bank shall have determined that,
-----------------
after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation
regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not
having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or
comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return
on capital of such Bank (or its Parent) as a consequence of such Bank's
obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank (or its Parent)
could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking
into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount
deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15)
days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrower
shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Bank (or its Parent) for such reduction. A
25
certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section, setting forth
in reasonable detail the basis therefor, shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.
SECTION 3.07 Substitution of Banks. If any Bank (an "Affected Bank")
-----------------------
(i) makes demand upon Borrower for (or if Borrower is otherwise required to pay)
Additional Costs pursuant to Section 3.01 or (ii) is unable to make or maintain
a LIBOR Loan as a result of a condition described in Section 3.03 or clause (2)
of Section 3.02, Borrower may, within ninety (90) days of receipt of such demand
or notice (or the occurrence of such other event causing Borrower to be required
to pay Additional Costs or causing said Section 3.03 or clause (2) of Section
3.02 to be applicable), as the case may be, give notice (a "Replacement Notice")
to Administrative Agent (which will promptly forward a copy of such notice to
each Bank) of Borrower's intention either (x) to prepay in full the Affected
Bank's Note and to terminate the Affected Bank's entire Loan Commitment or (y)
to replace the Affected Bank with another financial institution (the
"Replacement Bank") designated in such Replacement Notice.
In the event Borrower opts to give the notice provided for in clause
(x) above, and if the Affected Bank shall not agree within thirty (30) days of
its receipt thereof to waive the payment of the Additional Costs in question or
the effect of the circumstances described in Section 3.03 or clause (2) of
Section 3.02, then, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist,
Borrower may (notwithstanding the provisions of clause (2) of Section 2.11(a))
terminate the Affected Bank's entire Loan Commitment, provided that in
connection therewith it pays to the Affected Bank all outstanding principal and
accrued and unpaid interest under the Affected Bank's Note, together with all
other amounts, if any, due from Borrower to the Affected Bank, including all
amounts properly demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 3.01 and 3.05.
In the event Borrower opts to give the notice provided for in clause
(y) above, and if (i) Administrative Agent shall, within thirty (30) days of its
receipt of the Replacement Notice, notify Borrower and each Bank in writing that
the Replacement Bank is reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and (ii)
the Affected Bank shall not, prior to the end of such thirty (30)-day period,
agree to waive the payment of the Additional Costs in question or the effect of
the circumstances described in Section 3.03 or clause (2) of Section 3.02, then
the Affected Bank shall, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist,
assign its Note and all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to
the Replacement Bank, and the Replacement Bank shall assume all of the Affected
Bank's rights and obligations, pursuant to an agreement, substantially in the
form of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, executed by the Affected Bank
and the Replacement Bank. In connection with such assignment and assumption, the
Replacement Bank shall pay to the Affected Bank an amount equal to the
outstanding principal amount under the Affected Bank's Note plus all interest
accrued thereon, plus all other amounts, if any (other than the Additional Costs
in question), then due and payable to the Affected Bank; provided, however, that
-------- -------
prior to or simultaneously with any such assignment and assumption, Borrower
shall have paid to such Affected Bank all amounts properly demanded and
unreimbursed under Sections 3.01 and 3.05. Upon the effective date of such
assignment and assumption, the Replacement Bank shall become a Bank Party to
this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank as set
forth in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the Affected Bank shall
be released from its obligations hereunder, and no further consent or action by
any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to
this Section, a substitute Note shall be issued to the Replacement Bank by
Borrower, in exchange for
26
the return of the Affected Bank's Note. The obligations evidenced by such
substitute Notes shall constitute "Obligations" for all purposes of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall be secured by the Mortgages. If
the Replacement Bank is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of
America or a state thereof, it shall, prior to the first date on which interest
or fees are payable hereunder for its account, deliver to Borrower and
Administrative Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding
of any United States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 10.13.
Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Banks shall execute such
modifications to the Loan Documents as shall be reasonably required in
connection with and to effectuate the foregoing.

(4) Relationship of Combined EBITDA to Total Outstanding Indebtedness.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
As of the end of any calendar quarter, the ratio (expressed as a

Distributable Cash Flow; provided, however, that Borrower shall be
-------- -------
permitted, provided there exists no Event of Default, to make Restricted
Payments in excess of 95% of Distributable Cash Flow as may be necessary
under Section 857(a) of the Code to maintain TCI's tax status as a real
estate investment trust. For purposes of this Article, "Restricted

-----------------------------
calculation of the financial covenants set forth in Section 8.01, the following
adjustments shall be made in the case of each property acquired, or each
"property put into service", or each property disposed of, by Borrower during
the applicable test period:
(1) In the case of each property acquired or put into service, the
contribution of said property to Capitalization Value shall be the lesser
of (a) such property's contribution to Combined EBITDA, annualized based
on Borrower's period of ownership or operation, divided by 8.00% or (b)
the acquisition cost or cost of the property. In the case of each
property disposed of by Borrower during the applicable test period, such
property shall be deemed to have made no contribution to Capitalization
Value for the applicable twelve (12)-month period.
(2) In the case of each property acquired or put into service, the
contribution of said property to Combined EBITDA shall be an annualized
amount based upon the period of Borrower's ownership or operation. In the
case of each property disposed of by Borrower during the applicable test
period, such property shall be deemed to have made no contribution to
Combined EBITDA for the applicable twelve (12)-month period.
(3) In the case of each property acquired or put into service, the
contribution of said property to Interest Expense for the applicable
twelve (12)-month period shall be equal to actual interest expense with
respect to the Debt incurred or assumed in connection with the
acquisition, from the date of the acquisition or the date the asset is
put into service until the end of such twelve (12)-month period,
annualized. In the case of each property disposed of during the applicable
test period, such property shall be deemed to have made no contribution to
Interest Expense for such period.
In addition, if any Debt of Borrower is refinanced during an applicable test
period, the calculation of Interest Expense shall be adjusted as follows. The
contribution of the Debt that was refinanced to Interest Expense for the
applicable twelve (12)-month period shall be equal to actual interest expense on
the refinanced Debt from the date of the refinancing to the end of such twelve
(12)-month period, annualized.
As used in this Section 8.02, the term "property put into service" means any
property that has been opened to the public for business and which has generated
revenues for a period of at least thirty (30) days.

ARTICLE X
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; RELATIONS AMONG BANKS
SECTION 10.01 Appointment, Powers and Immunities of
---------------------------------------------
Administrative Agent. Each Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes
---------------------
Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under any other Loan
Document with such powers as are specifically delegated to Administrative
Agent by the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, together
with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative
Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set
forth in this Agreement and any other Loan Document or required by law, and
shall not by reason of this Agreement be a fiduciary or trustee for any
Bank except to the extent that Administrative Agent acts as an agent with
respect to the receipt or payment of funds (nor shall Administrative Agent
have any
46
fiduciary duty to Borrower nor shall any Bank have any fiduciary duty to
Borrower or to any other Bank). Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible to the Banks for any recitals, statements, representations or
warranties made by Borrower or any officer, partner or official of Borrower or
any other Person contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or in
any certificate or other document or instrument referred to or provided for in,
or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or
for the value, legality, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or
sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other document
or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein, for the perfection
or priority of any Lien securing the Obligations or for any failure by Borrower
or any other obligor to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder.
Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be
responsible, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized
agents, for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its
directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other
Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its or their
own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Borrower shall pay any fee agreed to
by Borrower and Administrative Agent with respect to Administrative Agent's
services hereunder.
SECTION 10.02. Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent
----------------------------------
shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other
communication (including any thereof by telephone, telex, telegram or cable)
believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or
on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of
legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by
Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may deem and treat each Bank as the
holder of the Loan made by it for all purposes hereof and shall not be required
to deal with any Person who has acquired a participation in any Loan or
participation from a Bank. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be
fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance
with instructions signed by the Required Banks, and such instructions of the
Required Banks and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be
binding on all of the Banks and any other holder of all or any portion of any
Loan or participation.
SECTION 10.03. Defaults. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have
--------
knowledge of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless
Administrative Agent has received notice from a Bank or Borrower specifying such
Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "Notice of
Default." In the event that Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the
occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall give
prompt notice thereof to the Banks. Administrative Agent, following consultation
with the Banks, shall (subject to Section 10.07) take such action with respect
to such Default or Event of Default which is continuing, or with respect to the
exercise of remedies, including with respect to realization on, or operation or
disposition of, any Collateral, as shall be directed by the Required Banks;
provided that, unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received such
directions, Administrative Agent may take such action, or refrain from taking
such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem
advisable in the best interest of the Banks; and provided further that
Administrative Agent shall not send a notice of Default or acceleration to
47
Borrower without the approval of the Required Banks. In no event shall
Administrative Agent be required to take any such action which it determines to
be contrary to law.
SECTION 10.04 Rights of Administrative Agent as a Bank. With respect to its
----------------------------------------
Loan Commitment and the Loan provided by it, Administrative Agent in its
capacity as a Bank hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder
as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as
Administrative Agent, and the term "Bank" or "Banks" shall, unless the context
otherwise indicates, include Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Bank.
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor
to any Bank) accept deposits from, lend money to (on a secured or unsecured
basis), and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business
with Borrower (and any Affiliates of Borrower) as if it were not acting as
Administrative Agent.
SECTION 10.05 Sharing of Costs by Banks; Indemnification of Administrative
------------------------------------------------------------
Agent. Each Bank agrees to pay its ratable share, based on the respective
-----
outstanding principal balances under its Note and the other Notes, of any
expenses incurred (and not paid or reimbursed by Borrower after demand for
payment is made by Administrative Agent) by or on behalf of the Banks in
connection with any Default or Event of Default, including, without limitation,
costs of enforcement of the Loan Documents and any advances to pay taxes or
insurance premiums or otherwise to preserve the Lien of any Mortgage or to
preserve or protect any Mortgaged Property. In the event a Bank fails to pay its
share of expenses as aforesaid, and all or a portion of such unpaid amount is
paid by Administrative Agent and/or one or more of the other Banks, then the
defaulting Bank shall reimburse Administrative Agent and/or the other Bank(s)
for the portion of such unpaid amount paid by it or them, as the case may be,
together with interest thereon at the Base Rate from the date of payment by
Administrative Agent and/or the other Bank(s). In addition, each Bank agrees to
indemnify Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 12.04
or under the other applicable provisions of any Loan Document, but without
limiting the obligations of Borrower under Section 12.04 or such other
provisions), for its Pro Rata Share of any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent in any way relating to or
arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other documents
contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses which Borrower is
obligated to pay under Section 12.04 or under any other applicable provisions of
any Loan Document) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or
of any such other documents or instruments; provided that no Bank shall be
liable for (1) any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified, (2) any loss of
principal or interest with respect to Administrative Agent's Loan or (3) any
loss suffered by Administrative Agent in connection with a swap or other
interest rate hedging arrangement entered into with Borrower.
SECTION 10.06. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Banks.
-------------------------------------------------------
Each Bank agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on
Administrative Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own analysis of the
Collateral and of the credit of Borrower, and its own decision to enter into
this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon
Administrative Agent or any
48
other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the
performance or observance by Borrower of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or
to inspect the properties (including, without limitation, any Property) or books
of Borrower or any Mortgagor. Except for notices, reports and other documents
and information expressly required to be furnished to the Banks by
Administrative Agent hereunder, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or
responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information
concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of Borrower, any
Mortgagor or any other Affiliate of Borrower which may come into the possession
of Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates. Administrative Agent shall not
be required to file this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document or
instrument referred to herein or therein, for record or give notice of this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document or instrument referred to
herein or therein, to anyone.
SECTION 10.07. Failure of Administrative Agent to Act. Except for action
-----------------------------------------
expressly required of Administrative Agent hereunder, Administrative Agent
shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder
unless it shall have received further assurances (which may include cash
collateral) of the indemnification obligations of the Banks under Section 10.05
in respect of any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by
reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
SECTION 10.08 Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent.
--------------------------------------------------------
Administrative Agent hereby agrees not to unilaterally resign except in the
event it becomes an Affected Bank and is removed or replaced as a Bank
pursuant to Section 3.07, in which event it shall have the right to resign.
Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by the
Required Banks, provided that Borrower and the other Banks shall be promptly
notified thereof. Upon any such removal, the Required Banks shall have the right
to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which successor Administrative
Agent, so long as it is reasonably acceptable to the Required Banks, shall be
that Bank then having the greatest Loan Commitment. If no successor
Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks and
shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the Required
Banks' removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring
Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor
Administrative Agent, which shall be one of the Banks. The Required Banks or the
retiring Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall upon the appointment of
a successor Administrative Agent promptly so notify Borrower and the other
Banks. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder
by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any
retiring Administrative Agent's removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the
provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect
of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as
Administrative Agent.
SECTION 10.09. Amendments Concerning Agency Function. Notwithstanding
----------------------------------------
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall
not be bound by any waiver, amendment, supplement or modification of this
Agreement or
49
any other Loan Document which affects its duties, rights, and/or function
hereunder or thereunder unless it shall have given its prior written consent
thereto.
SECTION 10.10 Liability of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall
---------------------------------
not have any liabilities or responsibilities to Borrower on account of the
failure of any Bank to perform its obligations hereunder or to any Bank on
account of the failure of Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or under
any other Loan Document.
SECTION 10.11. Transfer of Agency Function. Without the consent of Borrower
---------------------------
or any Bank, Administrative Agent may at any time or from time to time transfer
its functions as Administrative Agent hereunder to any of its offices wherever
located in the United States, provided that Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify Borrower and the Banks thereof.
SECTION 10.12 Non-Receipt of Funds by Administrative Agent. Unless
--------------------------------------------------
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank or Borrower (either
one as appropriate being the "Payor") prior to the date on which such Bank is to
make payment hereunder to Administrative Agent of the proceeds of a Loan or
Borrower is to make payment to Administrative Agent, as the case may be (either
such payment being a "Required Payment"), which notice shall be effective upon
receipt, that the Payor will not make the Required Payment in full to
Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment
has been made in full to Administrative Agent on such date, and Administrative
Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance
upon such assumption, make the amount thereof available to the intended
recipient on such date. If and to the extent the Payor shall not have in fact so
made the Required Payment in full to Administrative Agent, the recipient of such
payment shall repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount made
available to it together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such
amount was so made available by Administrative Agent until the date
Administrative Agent recovers such amount, at the customary rate set by
Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among Banks for three (3)
Banking Days and thereafter at the Base Rate.
SECTION 10.13. Withholding Taxes. Each Bank represents that it is entitled
-----------------
to receive any payments to be made to it hereunder without the withholding of
any tax and will furnish to Administrative Agent such forms, certifications,
statements and other documents as Administrative Agent or Borrower may request
from time to time to evidence such Bank's exemption from the withholding of any
tax imposed by any jurisdiction or to enable Administrative Agent to comply with
any applicable Laws or regulations relating thereto. Without limiting the effect
of the foregoing, if any Bank is not created or organized under the laws of the
United States of America or any state thereof, such Bank will furnish to
Administrative Agent Form 4224 or Form 1001 of the Internal Revenue Service, or
such other forms, certifications, statements or documents, duly executed and
completed by such Bank as evidence of such Bank's exemption from the withholding
of U.S. tax with respect thereto. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to
make any payments hereunder to such Bank in respect of any Loan or participation
or such Bank's Loan Commitment or obligation to purchase participations until
such Bank shall have furnished to Administrative Agent the requested form,
certification, statement or document.

SECTION 10.14 Minimum Commitment by UBS. Notwithstanding the provisions
-------------------------
of Section 12.05, subsequent to the Closing Date, UBS hereby agrees to
maintain a Loan Commitment in an amount no less than $15,000,000, and further
agrees to hold and not to participate or assign any of such amount other than an
assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank or to the Parent or a majority-owned
subsidiary of UBS.
SECTION 10.15. Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided,
------------------
each advance of proceeds of the Loans shall be made by the Banks ratably
according to the amounts of their respective Loan Commitments.
SECTION 10.16 Sharing of Payments Among Banks. If a Bank shall obtain
----------------------------------
payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan made by it through the
exercise of any right of setoff, banker's lien, counterclaim, or by any other
means (including direct payment), and such payment results in such Bank
receiving a greater payment than it would have been entitled to had such payment
been paid directly to Administrative Agent for disbursement to the Banks, then
such Bank shall promptly purchase for cash from the other Banks participations
in the Loans made by the other Banks in such amounts, and make such other
adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable to the end that all the
Banks shall share ratably the benefit of such payment. To such end the Banks
shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of
participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise
be restored. Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation in the
Loans made by other Banks may exercise all rights of setoff, banker's lien,
counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation. Nothing
contained herein shall require any Bank to exercise any such right or shall
affect the right of any Bank to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising,
any such right with respect to any other indebtedness of Borrower.
SECTION 10.17. Possession of Documents. Each Bank shall keep possession
-----------------------
of its own Notes. Administrative Agent shall hold all the other Loan Documents
and related documents in its possession and maintain separate records and
accounts with respect thereto, and shall permit the Banks and their
representatives access at all reasonable times to inspect such Loan Documents,
related documents, records and accounts.
ARTICLE XI
NATURE OF OBLIGATIONS
SECTION 11.01. Absolute and Unconditional Obligations. Borrower
--------------------------------------------
acknowledges and agrees that its obligations and liabilities under this
Agreement and under the other Loan Documents shall be absolute and unconditional
irrespective of (1) any lack of validity or enforceability of any of the
Obligations, any Loan Documents, or any agreement or instrument relating
thereto, (2) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
other term in respect of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment
or waiver of or consent to any departure from any Loan Documents or any other
documents or instruments executed in connection with or related to the
Obligations, (3) any exchange or release of any Collateral, or any release of
any other Person from all or any of the Obligations or (4) any other
circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a
discharge of, Borrower or any other Person in respect of the Obligations.
51
The obligations and liabilities of Borrower under this Agreement and
other Loan Documents shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by
any Bank or any other Person at any time of any right or remedy against Borrower
or any other Person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part
of the Obligations or against any Collateral or guarantee therefor or right of
setoff with respect thereto.
SECTION 11.02. Non-Recourse. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the
------------
contrary contained in this Agreement, in any of the other Loan Documents,
or in any other instruments, certificates, documents or agreements executed

Section, hereinafter referred to, individually and collectively, as the
"Relevant Documents"), no recourse under or upon any Obligation, representation,
warranty, promise or other matter whatsoever shall be had against any of the
constituent partners of Borrower or their successors or assigns (said
constituent partners and their successors and assigns, for purposes of this
Section, hereinafter referred to, individually and collectively, as the "TRG
Partners"), and each Bank expressly waives and releases, on behalf of itself and
its successors and assigns, all right to assert any liability whatsoever under
or with respect to the Relevant Documents against, or to satisfy any claim or
obligation arising thereunder against, any of the TRG Partners or out of any
assets of the TRG Partners, provided, however, that nothing in this Section
-------- -------
shall be deemed to (1) release Borrower from any personal liability
pursuant to, or from any of its respective obligations under, the Relevant
Documents, or from personal liability for its fraudulent actions or fraudulent
omissions, (2) release any TRG Partner from personal liability for its or his
own fraudulent actions or fraudulent omissions, (3) constitute a waiver of any
obligation evidenced or secured by, or contained in, the Relevant Documents or
affect in any way the validity or enforceability of the Relevant Documents or
(4) limit the right of Administrative Agent and/or the Banks to proceed against
or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or any and all of the assets
of Borrower (notwithstanding the fact that the TRG Partners have an ownership
interest in Borrower and, thereby, an interest in the assets of Borrower) or to
name Borrower (or, to the extent that the same are required by applicable law or
are determined by a court to be necessary parties in connection with an action
or suit against Borrower or all or any part of the Collateral, any of the TRG
Partners) as a party defendant in, and to enforce against all or any part of the
Collateral and/or assets of Borrower any judgment obtained by Administrative
Agent and/or the Banks with respect to, any action or suit under the Relevant
Documents so long as no judgment shall be taken (except to the extent taking a
judgment is required by applicable law or determined by a court to be necessary
to preserve Administrative Agent's and/or Banks' rights against Borrower or all
or any part of the Collateral, but not otherwise) or shall be enforced against
the TRG Partners, their successors and assigns, or their assets.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the
Relevant Documents, no recourse under or upon any Obligation, representation,
warranty, promise or other matter whatsoever shall be had against any of the
constituent partners (other than Borrower and, in such case, only to the extent
provided in paragraph (a) above) of any Mortgagor or their respective successors
or assigns (said constituent partners (other than Borrower) and their respective
successors and assigns, for purposes of this Section, hereinafter referred to,
individually and collectively, as the "Mortgagor Partners") and each Bank
expressly waives and releases, on behalf of itself and its successors and
assigns, all right to assert any liability whatsoever under or with respect to
the Relevant Documents against, or to satisfy any claim or obligation arising
thereunder against, any of the Mortgagor Partners or out of any assets of the
52
Mortgagor Partners, provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall be
-------- -------
deemed to (1) release any Mortgagor from any personal liability pursuant to, or
from any of its respective obligations under, the Relevant Documents, or from
personal liability for its fraudulent actions or fraudulent omissions, (2)
release any Mortgagor Partner from personal liability for its or his own
fraudulent actions or fraudulent omissions, (3) constitute a waiver of any
obligation evidenced or secured by, or contained in, the Relevant Documents or
affect in any way the validity or enforceability of the Relevant Documents or
(4) limit the right of Administrative Agent and/or the Banks to proceed against
or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or any and all of the assets
of any Mortgagor (notwithstanding the fact that the Mortgagor Partners have an
ownership interest in such Mortgagor and, thereby, an interest in the assets of
such Mortgagor) or to name any Mortgagor (or, to the extent that the same are
required by applicable law or are determined by a court to be necessary parties
in connection with an action or suit against Borrower, Mortgagor or all or any
part of the Collateral, any of the Mortgagor Partners) as a party defendant in,
and to enforce against all or any part of the Collateral and/or assets of any
Mortgagor any judgment obtained by Administrative Agent and/or the Banks with
respect to, any action or suit under the Relevant Documents so long as no
judgment shall be taken (except to the extent taking a judgment is required by
applicable law or determined by a court to be necessary to preserve
Administrative Agent's and/or Banks' rights against Borrower, any Mortgagor or
all or any part of the Collateral, but not otherwise) or shall be enforced
against the Mortgagor Partners, their successors and assigns, or their assets.
ARTICLE XII
MISCELLANEOUS
SECTION 12.01. Binding Effect of Request for Advance. Borrower agrees that,
-------------------------------------
by its acceptance of any advance of proceeds of the Loans under this Agreement,
it shall be bound in all respects by the request for advance submitted on its
behalf in connection therewith with the same force and effect as if Borrower had
itself executed and submitted the request for advance and whether or not the
request for advance is executed and/or submitted by an authorized person.
SECTION 12.02. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or material waiver
----------------------
of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document nor consent
to any material departure by Borrower, any Mortgagor or any other obligor
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by the Required Banks and, solely for purposes of its acknowledgment
thereof, Administrative Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
given, provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
-------- -------
writing and signed by all the Banks do any of the following: (1) reduce the
principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees due hereunder or any other
amount due hereunder or under any Loan Document; (2) postpone any date fixed for
any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees due hereunder
or under any Loan Document, or waive any default in the payment of principal,
interest or any other amount due hereunder or under any Loan Documents; (3)
change the definition of Required Banks; (4) amend this Section or any other
provision requiring the consent of all the Banks; (5) waive any default under
paragraph (5) of Section 9.01; or (6) release any material portion of the
Collateral, or subordinate the Banks' Lien on any material portion of the
Collateral to a Lien to secure any Debt other than the Loans, other than, in
either case, in
53
accordance with the provisions of Loan Documents. Any advance of proceeds
of the Loans made prior to or without the fulfillment by Borrower of all of the
conditions precedent thereto, whether or not known to Administrative Agent and
the Banks, shall not constitute a waiver of the requirement that all conditions,
including the non-performed conditions, shall be required with respect to all
future advances. No failure on the part of Administrative Agent or any Bank to
exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof or preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not
exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
SECTION 12.03. Usury. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
-----
the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes shall be subject
to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required to the
extent that receipt thereof would be contrary to provisions of law applicable to
a Bank limiting rates of interest which may be charged or collected by such
Bank.
SECTION 12.04. Expenses; Indemnification. Borrower agrees to reimburse
--------------------------
Administrative Agent on demand for all reasonable costs, expenses, and charges
including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and charges of engineers,
appraisers and other consultants (provided such other consultants have been
engaged with Borrower's consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; it
being understood, however, that Borrower shall have no such right of consent
during the existence of an Event of Default) and external legal counsel incurred
by Administrative Agent in connection with the Loans and to reimburse each of
the Banks for reasonable legal costs, expenses and charges incurred by each of
the Banks in connection with the performance or enforcement of this Agreement,
the Notes, or any other Loan Documents; provided, however, that Borrower is not
-------- -------
responsible for costs, expenses and charges incurred by the Bank Parties in
connection with the day-to-day administration or the syndication of the Loans
(except as otherwise provided in the Supplemental Fee Letter). Borrower agrees
to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Bank and their respective Affiliates,
controlling Persons, directors, officers, employees and agents (each, an
"Indemnified Party) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all
losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, joint or several, incurred by
any of them arising out of or by reason of (x) any claims by brokers due to acts
or omissions by Borrower or (y) any third-party claims relating to this
Agreement, the Loans, the use of proceeds of the Loans, and the performance by
UBS (including as Administrative Agent) or any of its Affiliates of the services
contemplated by this Agreement or the Supplemental Fee Letter, and Borrower will
reimburse any Indemnified Party for any and all reasonable expenses (including
reasonable counsel fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with
the investigation of or preparation for or defense of any pending or threatened
claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such
Indemnified Party is a party and whether or not such claim, action or proceeding
is initiated or brought to be by or on behalf of Borrower or any of its
Affiliates and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereby or by
the Supplemental Fee Letter are consummated or this Agreement or the Loan
Commitments are terminated. Borrower will not be liable under the foregoing
indemnification provision to an Indemnified Party to the extent that any loss,
claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final non-appealable judgment
by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified
Party's bad faith or gross negligence or breach of this Agreement.
54
In any such action or proceeding Borrower shall have the right to
assume the defense thereof and select counsel reasonably acceptable to UBS;
however, in no event will such counsel, without the prior written consent of
UBS, not to be unreasonably withheld, be counsel to Borrower or to any of its
Affiliates.
Borrower also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any
liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to
Borrower or its creditors related to or arising out of or in connection with
this Agreement, the Supplemental Fee Letter, the Loans, the use of proceeds of
the Loans, any of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Supplemental
Fee Letter or any related transaction or the performance by UBS (including as
Administrative Agent) or any of its Affiliates of the services contemplated by
this Agreement or the Supplemental Fee Letter, except to the extent that any
loss, claim, damage or liability is found in a final non-appealable judgment by
a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party's
bad faith or gross negligence or breach of this Agreement.
Borrower agrees that, without UBS's prior written consent, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld, Borrower will not settle, compromise or
consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action
or proceeding in respect of which indemnification has been or could be sought
under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement (whether or not UBS or
any other Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such claim,
action or proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i)
includes an unconditional written release, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Parties, of each Indemnified Party from all
liability arising out of such claim, action or proceeding and (ii) does not
include any statement as to an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act
by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.
No Indemnified Party shall, without the prior consent of Borrower
(not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) settle or compromise any action or
claim for which indemnity has been or could be sought hereunder.
If (a) an Indemnified Party is requested to appear as a witness in
any action brought by or on behalf of Borrower or any of its Affiliates or (b)
an Indemnified Party is required to appear as a witness in any action brought
against Borrower or any of Affiliates, in either case, in which such Indemnified
Party is not named as a defendant, Borrower agrees to reimburse such Indemnified
Party for all reasonable expenses incurred by it in connection with such
Indemnified Party's appearing and preparing to appear as such a witness,
including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of its
legal counsel, and to compensate such Indemnified Party in an amount to be
reasonable and mutually agreed upon.
The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the
repayment of all amounts due under or in connection with any of the Loan
Documents and the termination of the Loans.
55
SECTION 12.05. Assignment; Participation. This Agreement shall be
-------------------------
binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, Borrower, Administrative
Agent, the Banks and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Borrower
may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder.
Any Bank may at any time grant to one or more banks or other
institutions (each a "Participant") participating interests in its Loan (the
"Participations") subject to Borrower's consent, provided there exists no Event
of Default, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the
event of any such grant by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant,
whether or not Borrower or Administrative Agent was given notice, such Bank
shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and
Borrower and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly
with such Bank in connection with such Bank's rights and obligations hereunder.
Any agreement pursuant to which any Bank may grant such a participating interest
shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to
enforce the obligations of Borrower hereunder and under any other Loan Document
including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification
or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document;
provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Bank will not
agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement described in
Section 12.02 without the consent of the Participant.
Any Bank may at any time assign to any bank or other institution
with the acknowledgment of Administrative Agent and, provided there exists no
Event of Default, the consent of Borrower, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed (such assignee, a "Consented Assignee"), or to
one or more banks or other institutions which are majority owned subsidiaries of
a Bank or to the Parent of a Bank (each Consented Assignee or subsidiary bank or
institution, an "Assignee") all, or a proportionate part of all, of its rights
and obligations under this Agreement and its Notes, and such Assignee shall
assume rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption
Agreement executed by such Assignee and the assigning Bank, provided that, in
each case, after giving effect to such assignment, the Assignee's Loan
Commitment, and, in the case of a partial assignment, the assigning Bank's Loan
Commitment, each will be equal to or greater than $5,000,000. Upon (i) execution
and delivery of such instrument, (ii) payment by such Assignee to the Bank of an
amount equal to the purchase price agreed between the Bank and such Assignee and
(iii) at Administrative Agent's option, payment by such Assignee to
Administrative Agent of a fee, for Administrative Agent's own account, in the
amount of $2,500, on account of Administrative Agent's fees and expenses in
connection with such assignment, such Assignee shall be a Bank Party to this
Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank as set forth
in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the assigning Bank shall be
released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no
further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation
of any assignment pursuant to this paragraph, substitute Notes shall be issued
to the assigning Bank (in the case of a partial assignment) and Assignee by
Borrower, in exchange for the return of the original Notes. The obligations
evidenced by such substitute notes shall constitute "Obligations" for all
purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall be secured by
the Mortgages. If the Assignee is not incorporated under the laws of the United
States of America or a state thereof, it shall, prior to the first date on which
interest or fees are payable hereunder for its account, deliver to Borrower and
Administrative Agent
56
certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United
States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 10.13.
Any Bank may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights
under this Agreement and its Notes to a Federal Reserve Bank. No such assignment
shall release the transferor Bank from its obligations hereunder.
Borrower recognizes that in connection with a Bank's selling of
Participations or making of assignments, any or all documentation, financial
statements, appraisals and other data, or copies thereof, relevant to Borrower
or the Loans may be exhibited to and retained by any such Participant or
assignee or prospective Participant or assignee. In addition, such documentation
etc. may be exhibited to and retained by Affiliates of a Bank. In connection
with a Bank's delivery of any financial statements and appraisals to any such
Participant or assignee or prospective Participant or assignee, such Bank shall
also deliver its standard confidentiality statement indicating that the same are
delivered on a confidential basis. Borrower agrees to provide all assistance
reasonably requested by a Bank to enable such Bank to sell Participations or
make assignments of its Loan as permitted by this Section. Each Bank agrees to
provide Borrower with notice of all Participations sold by such Bank.
SECTION 12.06. Documentation Satisfactory. All documentation
---------------------------
required from or to be submitted on behalf of Borrower in connection with
this Agreement and the documents relating hereto shall be subject to the prior
approval of, and be satisfactory in form and substance to, Administrative Agent,
its counsel and, where specifically provided herein, the Banks. In addition, the
persons or parties responsible for the execution and delivery of, and
signatories to, all of such documentation, shall be acceptable to, and subject
to the approval of, Administrative Agent and its counsel and the Banks.
SECTION 12.07. Notices. Unless the party to be notified otherwise
-------
notifies the other party in writing as provided in this Section, and except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement, notices shall be given to
Administrative Agent by telephone, confirmed by writing, and to the Banks and to
Borrower by ordinary mail or overnight courier addressed to such party at its
address on the signature page of this Agreement. Notices shall be effective (1)
if by telephone, at the time of such telephone conversation, (2) if given by
mail, three (3) days after mailing and (3) if given by overnight courier, upon
receipt.
SECTION 12.08. Setoff. Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and
------
without limitation of) any right of setoff, bankers' lien or counterclaim a
Bank may otherwise have, each Bank shall be entitled, but only with the prior
consent of the Required Banks, to offset balances (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) held by it for the account of Borrower at any of
such Bank's offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any amount
payable by Borrower to such Bank under this Agreement or such Bank's Notes, or
any other Loan Document which is not paid when due (regardless of whether such
balances are then due to Borrower), in which case it shall promptly notify
Borrower and Administrative Agent thereof; provided that such Bank's failure to
give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof. Payments by Borrower
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or
counterclaim.
57
SECTION 12.09. Year 2000. Borrower represents, warrants and covenants that
---------
Borrower and each Mortgagor have taken and shall take all action reasonably
necessary to assure that its data processing and information technology and
building systems are capable of effectively processing data and information,
including dates on and after January 1, 2000, and shall not cease to perform, or
provide, or cause any software and/or system which is material to its operations
or any interface therewith to provide, invalid or incorrect results as a result
of date functionality and/or data, or otherwise experience any material
degradation of performance or functionality arising from, relating to or
including date functionality and/or data which represents or references
different centuries or more than one century or leap years, and that all such
systems shall be reasonably effective and accurate in managing and manipulating
data derived from, involving or relating in any way to dates (including single
century formulas and multi-century or leap year formulas), and will not cause a
material abnormally ending scenario within such systems or in any software
and/or system with which such systems interface, or generate materially
incorrect values or invalid results involving such dates. At the request of
Administrative Agent, Borrower shall provide, and cause each Mortgagor to
provide, Administrative Agent with reasonably acceptable assurance of Borrower's
and each Mortgagor's year 2000 capability.
SECTION 12.10. Table of Contents; Headings. Any table of contents and the
----------------------------
headings and captions hereunder are for convenience only and shall not affect
the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.
SECTION 12.11. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are intended
------------
to be severable. If for any reason any provision of this Agreement shall be
held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such
provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such
invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or
enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions
hereof in any jurisdiction.
SECTION 12.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
------------
number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and
the same instrument, and any party hereto may execute this Agreement by signing
any such counterpart.

-----------
Letter set forth the entire agreement among the parties hereto relating to the
transactions contemplated thereby and supersede any prior oral or written

-------------
INTERPRETED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.

-------
as aforesaid, Borrower hereby waives: (1) promptness and diligence; (2) notice
of any actions taken by any Bank Party under this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto except to the
extent otherwise provided herein; (3) all other notices, demands and protests,
and all other formalities of every kind in connection with
58
the enforcement of the Obligations, the omission of or delay in which, but
for the provisions of this Section, might constitute grounds for relieving
Borrower of its obligations hereunder; (4) any requirement that any Bank Party
protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien on any Collateral or exhaust any
right or take any action against Borrower or any other Person or against any
Collateral; (5) any right or claim of right to cause a marshalling of the assets
of Borrower; and (6) all rights of subrogation or contribution, whether arising
by contract or operation of law (including, without limitation, any such right
arising under the Federal Bankruptcy Code) or otherwise by reason of payment by
Borrower, either jointly or severally, pursuant to this Agreement or other Loan
Documents.
SECTION 12.16. JURISDICTION; IMMUNITIES. BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
-------------------------
AND EACH BANK HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY NEW YORK
STATE OR UNITED STATES FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY OVER ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENT. BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AND EACH BANK IRREVOCABLY AGREE
THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND
DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE OR UNITED STATES FEDERAL COURT. BORROWER,
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AND EACH BANK IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE SERVICE OF ANY
AND ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES OF
SUCH PROCESS TO BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR EACH BANK, AS THE CASE MAY BE,
AT THE ADDRESSES SPECIFIED HEREIN. BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH BANK
AGREE THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE
AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY
OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH BANK
FURTHER WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO VENUE IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND ANY OBJECTION
TO AN ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK ON THE BASIS OF FORUM NON
CONVENIENS. BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH BANK AGREE THAT ANY ACTION
OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT AGAINST BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY BANK, AS THE
CASE MAY BE, SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK
CITY OR A UNITED STATES FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY.
Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of Borrower,
Administrative Agent or any Bank to serve legal process in any other manner
permitted by law.
To the extent that Borrower, Administrative Agent or any Bank have
or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any
legal process (whether from service or notice, attachment prior to judgment,
attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself
or its property, Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Bank hereby irrevocably
waive such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement, the
Notes and any other Loan Document.
59
BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH BANK WAIVE ANY RIGHT EACH
SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING BROUGHT WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE LOANS. IN
ADDITION, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS WITH RESPECT TO THE
NOTES, ANY RIGHT BORROWER MAY HAVE TO (1) INTERPOSE ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN
(OTHER THAN A COUNTERCLAIM THAT IF NOT BROUGHT IN THE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING
BROUGHT BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS COULD NOT BE BROUGHT IN A SEPARATE
SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING OR WOULD BE SUBJECT TO DISMISSAL OR SIMILAR
DISPOSITION FOR FAILURE TO HAVE BEEN ASSERTED IN SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING
BROUGHT BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS) OR (2) HAVE THE SAME CONSOLIDATED
WITH ANY OTHER OR SEPARATE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. NOTHING HEREIN CONTAINED
SHALL PREVENT OR PROHIBIT BORROWER FROM INSTITUTING OR MAINTAINING A SEPARATE
ACTION AGAINST ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BANKS WITH RESPECT TO ANY ASSERTED
CLAIM.
