with respect to any and all transactions relating the Loan, the Prior Owner's
Loan Documents or the Loan Documents occurring on or before the Effective Date,
including any loss, cost or damage of any kind or character arising out of or in
any way connected with or in any way resulting from the acts, actions or
omissions of Lender Parties occurring on or before the Effective Date. The
foregoing release is intended to be, and is, a full, complete and general
release in favor of Lender Parties with respect to all claims, demands, actions,
causes of action and other matters described therein, including specifically,
without limitation, any claims, demands or causes of action based upon
allegations of breach of fiduciary duty, breach of any alleged duty of fair
dealing in good faith, economic coercion, usury, or any other theory, cause of
action, occurrence, matter or thing which might result in liability upon Lender
Parties arising or occurring on or before the Effective Date. Borrower Parties
understand and agree that the foregoing general release is in consideration for
the agreements of Lender contained herein and that they will receive no further
consideration for such release. Borrower Parties represent and warrant to Lender
that Borrower Parties have not previously assigned or transferred to any person
or entity any matter released hereunder and Borrower Parties agree to indemnify,
protect and hold the Lender Parties harmless from and against any and all claims
based on or arising out of any such assignment or transfer.
7. DEFAULT. Any default by Borrower in the performance of its obligations
herein contained, or any material inaccuracy in the representations and
warranties made by Borrower herein, shall constitute a default under the Loan
Documents and shall, after all notice and cure periods provided under the Loan
Documents have expired, entitle Lender to exercise all of its rights and
remedies set forth in the Loan Documents.
8. FEES. Borrower and Lender have agreed that, simultaneously with the
execution hereof, all fees, costs, and charges arising in connection with the
execution of this Agreement, including without limitation, all reasonable
attorneys' fees, title company fees, title insurance premiums, recording costs,
and other closing costs incurred by Lender in connection with this Agreement,
will be paid by Borrower as of the Effective Date, and that Lender shall have no
obligation whatsoever for payment thereof.
9. NO OFFSETS OR DEFENSES. Borrower hereby acknowledges, confirms and
warrants to Lender that as of the Effective Date, Borrower neither has nor
claims any offset, defense,
7
claim, right of set-off or counterclaim against Lender under, arising out of or
in connection with this Agreement, nor, to the best of Borrower's knowledge, the
Note, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document. Borrower covenants and agrees
with Lender that if any offset, defense, claim, right of set-off or counterclaim
exists as of the Effective Date, Borrower does hereby irrevocably and expressly
waive the right to assert such matter. Borrower understands and agrees that the
foregoing release is in consideration for the agreements of Lender contained
herein, and Borrower will receive no further consideration for such release.
10. CONFIRMATION. Except as specifically set forth herein, all other terms
and conditions of the Loan Documents shall remain unmodified and in full force
and effect, the same being confirmed and republished hereby; and except as
otherwise specifically set forth herein, the undersigned Borrower hereby
assumes, affirms, reaffirms and republishes all of the warranties, covenants and
agreements as set forth in the Loan Documents.
11. USURY SAVINGS CLAUSE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained elsewhere in this Agreement, Borrower and Lender hereby agree that all
agreements between them with respect to the Loan, including but not limited to
the Loan Documents, whether now existing or hereafter arising are expressly
limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever shall the amount paid, or
agreed to be paid, to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the money
loaned to Borrower, or for the performance or payment of any covenant or
obligation contained herein or therein, exceed the maximum rate of interest
under applicable law (the "Maximum Rate"). If from any circumstance whatsoever,
fulfillment of any provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents at the
time performance of such provisions shall be due would involve transcending the
limit of validity prescribed by law, then, automatically, the obligation to be
fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if from any
circumstance Lender should ever receive anything of value deemed interest by
applicable law which would exceed the Maximum Rate, such excessive interest
shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing with respect to
the Loan or on account of the other indebtedness secured by the Loan Documents
or Borrower's Loan Documents and not to the payment of interest, or if such
excessive interest exceeds the unpaid principal balance of the Loan and such
other indebtedness, such excess shall be refunded to Borrower. All sums paid or
agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the Loan
and other indebtedness of Borrower to Lender shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full
term of such indebtedness until payment in full so that the actual rate of
interest on account of all such indebtedness is uniform throughout the actual
term of the Loan and does not exceed the Maximum Rate throughout the entire term
of the Loan, as appropriate. The terms and provisions of this Section 11 shall
control every other provision of this Agreement and all other agreements between
Borrower and Lender.
12. MODIFICATIONS, WAIVER. No waiver, modification, amendment, discharge,
or change of any of the Loan Documents shall be valid unless the same is in
writing and signed by the party against which the enforcement of such
modification, waiver, amendment, discharge, or change is sought.
13. NO NOVATION. THE PARTIES DO NOT INTEND THIS AGREEMENT NOR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY TO BE, AND THIS AGREEMENT
8
AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED TO BE, A
NOVATION OF ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS OWING BY THE BORROWER UNDER OR IN CONNECTION
WITH THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. FURTHER, THE PARTIES DO NOT INTEND THIS AGREEMENT NOR
THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY TO AFFECT THE PRIORITY OF ANY OF THE
LENDER'S LIENS IN ANY OF THE COLLATERAL SECURING THE EXISTING NOTE IN ANY WAY,
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE LIENS, SECURITY INTERESTS AND ENCUMBRANCES
CREATED BY THE MORTGAGE.
