(2) Lending Offices. The Loans of each Lender shall be made and maintained at such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office for Loans of such Type.
(3) Several Obligations.

Section 2.8 Payments; Pro Rata Treatment; Etc.
(1) Payments Generally.
(a) Payments by Borrower. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, and, except to the extent otherwise provided therein, all payments to be made by Borrower under any other Loan Document, shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to Administrative Agent at an account designated by Administrative Agent by notice to Lead Borrower, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).

(c) Forwarding of Payments by Administrative Agent. Except as otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent and the Lenders, each payment received by Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any Note for account of any Lender shall be paid by Administrative Agent promptly to such Lender, in immediately available funds, for account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office for the Loan or other obligation in respect of which such payment is made.
(d) Extensions to Next Business Day. If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any Note would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall be payable for any principal so extended for the period of such extension.
(2) Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.9(4), Loans shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (in the case of the making of Loans) or their respective Loans (in the case of Conversions or Continuations of Loans); (b) each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans by Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by them; and (c) each payment of interest on Loans by Borrower shall be made for account of the
31
Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders.
(3) Computations. Interest on all Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which payable.
(4) Minimum Amounts.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the minimum amount of $1,000,000 shall not apply to Conversions of lesser amounts into a tranche of Loans that has (or will have upon such Conversion) an aggregate principal amount exceeding such minimum amount and one Interest Period.
(5) Certain Notices. Notices by Lead Borrower to Administrative Agent regarding Loan Transactions and the selection of Types of Loans and/or of the duration of Interest Periods shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if received by Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the number of Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Loan Transaction or the first day of such Interest Period specified below:
|
|
|
Notice |

Conversions into, Continuations as, or borrowings in Base Rate Loans |
|
3 |
|
|
|
Conversions into, Continuations as, borrowings in or changes in duration of Interest Period for, LIBOR-based Loans (subject to Section 2.4(6) |
|
3 |
Each such notice of a Loan Transaction shall specify the amount (subject to Section 2.8(4)), Type, and Interest Period of such proposed Loan Transaction, and the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such proposed Loan Transaction. Notices for Conversions and Continuations shall be in the form of Exhibit F. Each such notice specifying the duration of an Interest Period shall specify the portion of the Loans to which such Interest Period is to relate. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the contents of each such notice. If Lead Borrower
32
fails to select (i) the Type of Loan or (ii) the duration of any Interest Period for any LIBOR-based Loan within the time period (i.e., three (3) Business Days prior to the first day of the next applicable Interest Period) and otherwise as provided in this Section 2.8(5), such Loan (if outstanding as a LIBOR Loan) will be automatically Continued as an LIBOR-based Loan with an Interest Period of one (1) month on the last day of the current Interest Period for such Loan (based on a LIBOR-based Rate determined two (2) Business Days prior to the first day of the next Interest Period) or, if outstanding as an Base Rate Loan, will remain as a Base Rate Loan.
(6) Non-Receipt of Funds by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender or Lead Borrower (in either case, and along with Borrower, the “Payor”) prior to the date on which the Payor is to make payment to Administrative Agent of (in the case of a Lender) the proceeds of a Loan to be made by such Lender hereunder or (in the case of Borrower) a payment to Administrative Agent for account of any Lender hereunder (in either case, such payment being herein called the “Required Payment”), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Payor does not intend to make the Required Payment to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient(s) on such date; and, if the Payor has not in fact made the Required Payment to Administrative Agent, the recipient(s) of such payment shall, on demand, repay to Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date (the “Advance Date”) such amount was so made available by Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Federal Funds Rate for such day in the case of payments returned to Administrative Agent by any of the Lenders or (b) the applicable interest rate due hereunder with respect to payments returned by Borrower to Administrative Agent and, if such recipient(s) shall fail promptly to make such payment, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount, on demand, from the Payor, together with interest as aforesaid; provided that if neither the recipient(s) nor the Payor shall return the Required Payment to Administrative Agent within three (3) Business Days of the Advance Date, then, retroactively to the Advance Date, the Payor and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated to pay interest on the Required Payment as follows:
(a) if the Required Payment shall represent a payment to be made by Borrower to the Lenders, Borrower and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated retroactively to the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment at the Default Rate (without duplication of the obligation of Borrower under Section 2.3 to pay interest on the Required Payment at the Default Rate), it being understood that the return by the recipient(s) of the Required Payment to Administrative Agent shall not limit such obligation of Borrower under Section 2.3 to pay interest at the Default Rate in respect of the Required Payment, and
(b) if the Required Payment shall represent proceeds of a Loan to be made by the Lenders to Borrower, the Payor and Borrower shall each be obligated retroactively to the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment pursuant to whichever of the rates specified in Section 2.3 is applicable to the Type of such Loan, it being understood that the return by Borrower of the Required Payment to Administrative Agent shall not limit any claim Borrower may have against the Payor in respect of such Required Payment.
33
(7) Sharing of Payments, Etc.
(a) Right of Set-off. Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim a Lender may otherwise have, (subject, as among the Lenders, to Section 12.26), each Lender shall be entitled, at its option (to the fullest extent permitted by law), to set off and apply any deposit (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), or other indebtedness, held by it for the credit or account of Borrower at any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on any of such Lender’s Loans or any other amount payable to such Lender hereunder, that is not paid when due (regardless of whether such deposit or other indebtedness is then due to Borrower), in which case it shall promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent thereof, provided that such Lender’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.
(b) Sharing. If any Lender shall obtain from Borrower payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan owing to it or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or any other Loan Document through the exercise (subject, as among the Lenders, to Section 12.26) of any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from Administrative Agent as provided herein), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received a greater percentage of the principal of or interest on the Loans or such other amounts then due hereunder or thereunder by Borrower to such Lender than the percentage received by any other Lender, it shall promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other Lenders (or in interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal of and/or interest on the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to each of the Lenders. To such end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.
(c) Consent by Borrower. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation (or direct interest) may exercise (subject, as among the Lenders, to Section 12.26) all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such Lender in the amount of such participation.
(d) Rights of Lenders; Bankruptcy. Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of Borrower. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a set-off to which this Section 2.8(7) applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section 2.8(7) to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.
34
Section 2.9 Yield Protection; Etc.
(1) Additional Costs.
(a) Costs of Making or Maintaining LIBOR-based Loans. Borrower shall pay directly to each Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs that such Lender determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any LIBOR-based Loans or its obligation to make any LIBOR-based Loans hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect of any of such Loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that:
|
|
|
|
(i) |
shall subject any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office for any of such Loans) to any tax, duty or other charge in respect of such Loans or its Note or changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or its Note in respect of any of such Loans (excluding changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or of such Applicable Lending Office by the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or such Applicable Lending Office); or |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than the Reserve Requirement used in the determination of the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for any Interest Period for such Loan) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Lender (including, without limitation, any of such Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Rate”), or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the Commitment of such Lender hereunder); or |
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement or its Note (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities) or its Commitment. |
If any Lender requests compensation from Lead Borrower under this paragraph (a), Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender thereafter to make or Continue LIBOR-based Loans, or to Convert Loans into LIBOR-based Loans, until the Regulatory Change giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 2.9(4) shall be applicable), provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.
(b) Costs Attributable to Regulatory Change or Risk-Based Capital Guidelines. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.9(1) (but without duplication), Borrower shall pay directly to each Lender from time to time on request such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender (or, without duplication, the bank holding company of which such Lender is a subsidiary) for any costs that it determines are attributable to the maintenance by such Lender (or any Applicable
35
Lending Office or such bank holding company), pursuant to any law or regulation or any interpretation, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) of any court or governmental or monetary authority (i) following any Regulatory Change or (ii) implementing any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not the failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) hereafter issued by any government or governmental or supervisory authority implementing at the national level the Basel II Accord, of capital in respect of its Commitment or Loans (such compensation to include, without limitation, an amount equal to any reduction of the rate of return on assets or equity of such Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office or such bank holding company) to a level below that which such Lender (or any Applicable Lending Office or such bank holding company) could have achieved but for such law, regulation, interpretation, directive or request.
(c) Notification and Certification. Each Lender shall notify Lead Borrower of any event occurring after the date hereof entitling such Lender to compensation under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.9(1) as promptly as practicable, but in any event within sixty (60) days, after such Lender obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided that (i) if any Lender fails to give such notice within sixty (60) days after it obtains actual knowledge of such an event, such Lender shall, with respect to compensation payable pursuant to this Section 2.9(1) in respect of any costs resulting from such event, only be entitled to payment under this Section 2.9(1) for costs incurred from and after the date forty-five (45) days prior to the date that such Lender does give such notice and (ii) each Lender will designate a different Applicable Lending Office for the Loans of such Lender affected by such event if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole opinion of such Lender, be disadvantageous to such Lender, except that such Lender shall have no obligation to designate an Applicable Lending Office located in the United States of America. Each Lender will furnish to Lead Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by such Lender for compensation under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.9(1). Determinations and allocations by any Lender for purposes of this Section 2.9(1) of the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 2.9(1), or of the effect of capital maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 2.9(1), on its costs or rate of return of maintaining Loans or its obligation to make Loans, or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Loans, and of the amounts required to compensate such Lender under this Section 2.9(1), shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations and allocations are made on a reasonable basis.
(2) Limitation on Types of Loans. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of the LIBOR Rate for any Interest Period for any LIBOR-based Loan:
(a) Administrative Agent determines, which determination shall be conclusive, that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for LIBOR-based Loans as provided herein; or
(b) Any Lender determines, which determination shall be conclusive, and notifies Administrative Agent that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR-based Loans for such
36
Interest Period is to be determined are not likely adequately to cover the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining LIBOR-based Loans for such Interest Period;
then Administrative Agent shall give Lead Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to make additional LIBOR-based Loans, to Continue LIBOR-based Loans or to Convert Loans of any other Type into LIBOR-based Loans, and Borrower shall, on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the outstanding LIBOR-based Loans, either prepay such Loans or such Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans.
(3) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR-based Loans hereunder (and, in the sole opinion of such Lender, the designation of a different Applicable Lending Office would either not avoid such unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to such Lender), then such Lender shall promptly notify Lead Borrower thereof (with a copy to Administrative Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR-based Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR-based Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 2.9(4) shall be applicable).
(4) Treatment of Affected Loans. If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR-based Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR-based Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 2.9(1) or 2.9(3), such Lender’s Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion resulting from a circumstance described in Section 2.9(3), on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to Lead Borrower with a copy to Administrative Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 2.9(1) or 2.9(3) that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:
(a) to the extent that such Lender’s Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and
(b) all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR-based Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR-based Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.
If such Lender gives notice to Lead Borrower with a copy to Administrative Agent that the circumstances specified in Section 2.9(1) or 2.9(3) that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s Loans pursuant to this Section 2.9(4) no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR-based Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR-based Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Base Rate Loans and LIBOR-based Loans are allocated among the Lenders ratably (as to principal amounts, Types
37
and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.
(5) Compensation. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense that such Lender determines is attributable to:
(a) any payment, prepayment or Conversion of a LIBOR-based Loan made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, the acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights referred to in Article 11) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or
(b) any failure by Borrower for any reason to borrow a LIBOR-based Loan from such Lender on the date for such borrowing specified in the relevant notice of borrowing given to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Without limiting the effect of the preceding sentence, such compensation shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so paid, prepaid, Converted or not borrowed for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, Conversion or failure to borrow to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan that would have commenced on the date specified for such borrowing) at the applicable rate of interest for such Loan provided for herein over (ii) the amount of interest that otherwise would have accrued on such principal amount at a rate per annum equal to the interest component of the amount such Lender would have bid in the London interbank market for Dollar deposits of leading banks in amounts comparable to such principal amount and with maturities comparable to such period (as reasonably determined by such Lender), or if such Lender shall cease to make such bids, the equivalent rate, as reasonably determined by such Lender, derived from Page 3750 of the Dow Xxxxx Markets (Telerate) Service or other publicly available source as described in the definition of LIBOR Rate.
(6) U.S. Taxes.
(a) Gross-up for Deduction or Withholding of U.S. Taxes. Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender that is not a U.S. Person such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net payment of any amount due to such non-U.S. Person hereunder after deduction for or withholding in respect of any U.S. Taxes imposed with respect to such payment (or in lieu thereof, payment of such U.S. Taxes by such non-U.S. Person), will not be less than the amount stated herein to be then due and payable, provided that the foregoing obligation to pay such additional amounts shall not apply:
|
|
|
|
(i) |
to any payment to any Lender hereunder unless such Lender is, on the date hereof (or on the date it becomes a Lender hereunder as provided in Section 12.24(2)) and on the date of any change in the Applicable Lending Office of such Lender, either entitled to submit a Form W-8BEN (relating to such Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from withholding on all interest to be |
38
|
|
|
|
|
received by it hereunder in respect of the Loans) or Form W-8ECI (relating to all interest to be received by such Lender hereunder in respect of the Loans), or |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
to any U.S. Taxes imposed solely by reason of the failure by such non-U.S. Person to comply with applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connections with the United States of America of such non-U.S. Person if such compliance is required by statute or regulation of the United States of America as a precondition to relief or exemption from such U.S. Taxes. |
For the purposes hereof, (A) “U.S. Person” means a citizen, national or resident of the United States of America, a corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under any laws of the United States of America or any State thereof, or any estate or trust that is subject to Federal income taxation regardless of the source of its income, (B) “U.S. Taxes” means any present or future tax, assessment or other charge or levy imposed by or on behalf of the United States of America or any taxing authority thereof or therein, (C) “Form W-8BEN” means Form W-8BEN of the Department of the Treasury of the United States of America and (D) “Form W-8ECI” means Form W-8ECI of the Department of the Treasury of the United States of America. Each of the Forms referred to in the foregoing clauses (C) and (D) shall include such successor and related forms as may from time to time be adopted by the relevant taxing authorities of the United States of America to document a claim to which such Form relates.
(b) Evidence of Deduction, Etc. Within thirty (30) days after paying any amount to Administrative Agent or any Lender from which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, and within thirty (30) days after it is required by law to remit such deduction or withholding to any relevant taxing or other authority, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent for delivery to such non-U.S. Person evidence satisfactory to such Person of such deduction, withholding or payment (as the case may be).
(7) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 2.9(1) or 2.9(6), or any Lender’s obligation to Continue Loans of any Type, or to Convert Loans of any Type into the other Type of Loan, shall be suspended pursuant to Section 2.9(2) or 2.9(3) (any such Lender requesting such compensation, or whose obligations are so suspended, being herein called a “Requesting Lender”), Lead Borrower, upon three (3) Business Days notice, may require that such Requesting Lender transfer all of its right, title and interest under this Agreement and such Requesting Lender’s Note to any bank or other financial institution (a “Proposed Lender”) identified by Lead Borrower that is satisfactory to Administrative Agent (i) if such Proposed Lender agrees to assume all of the obligations of such Requesting Lender hereunder, and to purchase all of such Requesting Lender’s Loans hereunder for consideration equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Requesting Lender’s Loans, together with interest thereon to the date of such purchase (to the extent not paid by Borrower), and satisfactory arrangements are made for payment to such Requesting Lender of all other amounts accrued and payable hereunder to such Requesting Lender as of the date of
39
such transfer (including any fees accrued hereunder and any amounts that would be payable under Section 2.9(5) as if all of such Requesting Lender’s Loans were being prepaid in full on such date) and (ii) if such Requesting Lender has requested compensation pursuant to Section 2.9(1) or 2.9(6), such Proposed Lender’s aggregate requested compensation, if any, pursuant to Section 2.9(1) or 2.9(6) with respect to such Requesting Lender’s Loans is lower than that of the Requesting Lender. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.24(2), such Proposed Lender shall be a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements of Borrower contained in Sections 2.9(1), 2.9(6) and 12.5 (without duplication of any payments made to such Requesting Lender by Borrower or the Proposed Lender) shall survive for the benefit of such Requesting Lender under this Section 2.9(7) with respect to the time prior to such replacement.
Section 2.10 Administrative Fee.
Until payment in full of all obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for its sole account (except as agreed in writing between Administrative Agent and any Lender(s)), the Administrative Fee in accordance with the Fee Letter.
Section 2.11 Exit Fee.
With respect to any repayment or prepayment of principal under the Loans made on or prior to the original Maturity Date for any reason whatsoever (whether such repayment or prepayment of the Loans is made voluntarily or involuntarily or as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to which the Administrative Agent has accelerated the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents or otherwise), Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent (for the account of the Lenders in accordance with their pro rata shares), in addition to all other amounts that may be due hereunder, an amount equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the amount so repaid or prepaid under the Loans (the “Exit Fee”).
ARTICLE 3
INSURANCE, CONDEMNATION, AND IMPOUNDS
Section 3.1 Insurance.
(1) Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be maintained, Policies for Borrower and the Project providing at least the following coverages:
(a) comprehensive all-risk insurance on the Improvements and the personal property, in each case (i) in an amount equal to 100% of the “Full Replacement Cost,” which for purposes of this Agreement shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) with a waiver of depreciation, (ii) containing an agreed amount endorsement with respect to the improvements and personal property waiving all co insurance provisions; (iii) providing for no deductible in excess of $50,000; (iv) providing for repairs and alteration coverage; and (v) providing coverage for contingent liability from Operation of Building Laws, Demolition Costs and Increased Cost of Construction Endorsements together with an “Ordinance or Law Coverage” or “Enforcement”
40
endorsement if any of the Improvements or the use of the Project shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses. The Full Replacement Cost shall be redetermined from time to time (but not more frequently than once in any twenty-four (24) calendar months) at the request of Administrative Agent by an appraiser or contractor designated by Borrower and reasonably approved by Administrative Agent, or by an engineer or appraiser in the regular employ of the insurer. The cost of such appraisal shall be paid by Administrative Agent unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which case such cost shall be paid by Borrower. After the first appraisal, additional appraisals may be based on construction cost indices customarily employed in the trade. No omission on the part of Administrative Agent to request any such ascertainment shall relieve Borrower of any of its obligations under this Section 3.1(1)(a);
(b) commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage (including liabilities as a result of repairs and alterations) occurring upon, in or about the Project, such insurance (i) to be on the so called “occurrence” form with a combined single limit of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 general aggregate; (ii) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate; and (iii) to cover at least the following hazards: (A) premises and operations; (B) products and completed operations on an “if any” basis and for a period of not less than five (5) years after the completion of construction of the applicable Improvements; (C) independent contractors; (D) blanket contractual liability for all “insured contracts” as defined in the standard general liability policy; and (E) contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in Sections 5.4, 11.3 and 14.5 hereof, to the extent the same is available and falls within the definition of “insured contracts”;
(c) business income/loss of rents insurance (i) with loss payable to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders); (ii) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for in Section 3.1(1)(a) hereof; (iii) in an amount equal to 100% of the projected gross income from the Project (on an actual loss sustained basis) for a period continuing until the Restoration of the Project is completed; the amount of such business income/loss of rents insurance shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on the greater of (x) Borrower’s reasonable estimate of the gross income from the Project, and (y) the highest gross income received during the term of the Notes for any full calendar year prior to the date the amount of such insurance is being determined (or such lesser period as may have expired from the date of substantial completion of the applicable Improvements to the date the amount of such insurance is being determined), in each case for the succeeding eighteen (18) month period and (D) containing an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the improvements and the personal property has been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of twenty-four (24) months from the date that the Project is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period. All insurance proceeds payable to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) pursuant to this Section 3.1(1)(c) shall be held by Administrative Agent and shall be applied to the obligations secured hereunder from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Notes and this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve
41
Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured hereunder on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Notes and this Agreement except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such business income/loss of rents insurance;
(d) when required by Administrative Agent or at the discretion of Borrower, at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements in connection with any Casualty or Condemnation Event, the insurance provided for in Section 3.1(1)(a) shall be written in a so called builder’s risk completed value form or equivalent coverage as part of the “all-risk” insurance (1) on a non reporting basis, (2) against all risks insured against pursuant to Section 3.1(1)(a), (3) shall include permission to occupy the Project, and (4) shall contain an agreed amount endorsement waiving co insurance provisions and shall also include coverage for:
|
|
|
|
(i) |
loss suffered with respect to materials, equipment, machinery, and supplies whether on-site, in transit, or stored off-site and with respect to temporary structures, hoists, sidewalks, retaining walls, and underground property; |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
soft costs, plans, specifications, blueprints and models in connection with any restoration following a casualty; |
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
demolition and increased cost of construction, including, without limitation, increased costs arising out of changes in applicable law and codes; |
|
|
|
|
(iv) |
operation of building laws; |
|
|
|
|
(v) |
collapse, transit and testing; and |
|
|
|
|
(vi) |
delayed opening coverage on an actual loss sustained basis with extended period of indemnity endorsement consistent with Section 3.1(1)(c). |
(e) workers’ compensation insurance, as required by any Governmental Authority or legal requirement, subject to the statutory limits of the state of New York;
(f) comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance, if applicable, in amounts as shall be reasonably required by Administrative Agent on terms consistent with the commercial property insurance policy required under Section 3.1(1)(a);
(g) if any portion of the Improvements is at any time located in an area identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development or any successor thereto as an area having special flood hazards pursuant to the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as each may be amended, or any successor law (the “Flood Insurance Acts”), flood hazard insurance in an amount not less than the greater of (A) the maximum limit of coverage available with respect to the Project, under Policies issued pursuant to the Flood Insurance Acts, subject
42
only to customary deductibles under such Policies, and (B) the maximum limit of coverage available with respect to the Project, under Policies issued by private insurance carriers;
(h) earthquake insurance (based on probable maximum loss) in amounts and in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, provided that the insurance pursuant to this Section 3.1(1)(h) hereof shall be on terms consistent with the all risk insurance policy required under Section 3.1(1)(a) hereof;
(i) umbrella liability insurance in an amount not less than $100,000,000 per occurrence on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance policy required under Section 3.1(1)(b) hereof;
(j) secured creditor’s environmental insurance, insuring against unknown environmental hazards and conditions in amounts and in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, which shall name the Administrative Agent as a loss payee or additional insured, as applicable; and
(k) such other insurance and in such amounts as Administrative Agent from time to time may request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are available on commercially reasonable terms for properties located in or around the region where the Project is located and are customarily required by institutional lenders with respect to projects similar to the Project.
(2) All insurance provided in compliance with Section 3.1(1)(a) hereof shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), in such forms and, from time to time after the date hereof, in such amounts as may be satisfactory to Administrative Agent, issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies permitted to do business in the state of New York and reasonably approved by Administrative Agent. The insurance companies must have a claims paying ability/financial strength rating of “AX” (or its equivalent) or better by A.M. Best. No Policy shall contain an exclusion from coverage under such Policy for loss or damage incurred as a result of an act of terrorism or similar acts of sabotage, provided that Borrower may obtain separate Terrorism Insurance coverage subject to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.1(2). Borrower will be required to maintain insurance against terrorism, terrorist acts or similar acts of sabotage (“Terrorism Insurance”) with coverage amounts of not less than an amount equal to the full replacement cost of the improvements and the personal property (the “Terrorism Insurance Required Amount”). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Borrower shall not be obligated to expend in any fiscal year on Insurance Premiums for Terrorism Insurance more than two (2.0) times the then-current annual premium paid by Borrower for the comprehensive all-risk insurance required under subsection 3.1(1)(a) hereof (the “Terrorism Insurance Cap”) and if the cost of the Terrorism Insurance Required Amount exceeds the Terrorism Insurance Cap, Borrower shall purchase the maximum amount of Terrorism Insurance available with funds equal to the Terrorism Insurance Cap; provided, however, the Terrorism Insurance Cap shall not apply or restrict the amount of terrorism coverage required to be obtained and maintained by this subsection (x) with respect to the Project if (a) owners and/or operators of mixed-use retail/office buildings in the same class as the Project in Bronx, New York are generally obtaining terrorism insurance, (b) lenders financing such mixed-use retail/office properties in the same class as the
43
Project in Bronx, New York are generally requiring terrorism insurance as a condition of financing, or (c) Borrower or Sponsor or any Affiliate of Borrower or Sponsor, is obtaining terrorism insurance on any other properties in Bronx, New York of which any of the foregoing Persons own or operate. Not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender pursuant to Section 3.1(1) hereof, Lead Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent insurance certificates showing payment of all premiums (the “Insurance Premiums”) for such Policies, which certificates shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Within sixty (60) days following the expiration dates of the Policies, Lead Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent certified copies of such Policies marked “premium paid” or accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent of payment of the Insurance Premiums.
(3) Borrower shall not obtain (a) any umbrella or blanket liability or casualty Policy unless, in each case, such Policy is approved in advance in writing by Administrative Agent, and Lenders’ interest is included therein as provided in this Agreement, or (b) separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required in Section 3.1(1) to be furnished by, or which may be required to be furnished by, Borrower. In the event Borrower obtains separate insurance or an umbrella or a blanket policy, Lead Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of the same and shall cause certified copies of each Policy to be delivered as required in Section 3.1(1).
(4) All Policies provided for or contemplated by Section 3.1(1) hereof, except for the Policy referenced in Section 3.1(1)(e), shall name Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) as additional insured under liability policies and as mortgagee/loss payee under property policies, as their respective interests may appear, and in the case of property, boiler and machinery, and flood insurance, shall contain a so called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Administrative Agent providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall otherwise be in form, substance and content reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent.
(5) All Policies provided for in Section 3.1(1)(a) hereof shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:
|
|
|
|
(i) |
no willful act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Administrative Agent is concerned; |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
the Policy shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or cancelled without at least thirty (30) days’ written notice (or ten (10) days’ written notice, in the case of non-payment of premium) to Administrative Agent and any other party named therein as an insured; |
44
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
each Policy shall provide that the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Administrative Agent if the Policy has not been renewed fifteen (15) days prior to its expiration; and |
|
|
|
|
(iv) |
Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any insurance premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder. |
(6) If at any time Administrative Agent is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Administrative Agent shall have the right, on five (5) Business Days’ notice to Lead Borrower to take such action as Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect its interest in the Project, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion deems appropriate, and all expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent upon demand and until paid shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
(7) In the event of a foreclosure of the Mortgage, or other transfer of title to the Project in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Loans all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies then in force and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.
(8) Lead Borrower shall give immediate written notice of any loss in excess of $100,000 to the insurance carrier and to Administrative Agent. In connection with losses in excess of $100,000, but less than or equal to $2,000,000, Borrower and Administrative Agent shall cooperate in all matters related to the loss including, without limitation, making proof of loss, adjusting and compromising any claim under the insurance policies, appearing in and prosecuting any action arising from such insurance policies, and collecting and receiving insurance proceeds. In connection with losses in excess of $2,000,000, Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers Administrative Agent, as attorney in fact for Borrower coupled with an interest, to make proof of loss, to adjust and compromise any claim under insurance policies, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from such insurance policies, to collect and receive insurance proceeds, and to deduct therefrom Administrative Agent’s expenses incurred in the collection of such proceeds. Nothing contained in this Section 3.1(8), however, shall require Administrative Agent or any Lender to incur any expense or take any action hereunder.
Section 3.2 Use and Application of Net Proceeds.
The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of the Project:
(1) If the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Threshold Amount and the costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than Threshold Amount, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Administrative Agent to Borrower upon receipt, provided that (a) no Event of Default and/or Low DSCR Trigger Event has occurred and is continuing and (b) Borrower delivers to Administrative Agent a written undertaking to expeditiously commence and to
45
satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(2) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than Threshold Amount or the costs of completing the Restoration is equal to or greater than Threshold Amount Administrative Agent shall make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2. The term “Net Proceeds” shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.1(1)(a), (d), (f), (g) and (h) as a result of such damage or destruction, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same (“Insurance Proceeds”), or (ii) the net amount of the Award, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same (“Condemnation Proceeds”), whichever the case may be.
(a) The Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration provided that each of the following conditions are met:
|
|
|
|
(i) |
no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; except for the Casualty or Condemnation Event; |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
(1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than fifty percent (50%) of the total floor area of the improvements on the Project has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than ten percent (10%) of the land constituting the Project is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Project, and no portion of the improvements is located on such land; |
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
Leases demising in the aggregate a percentage amount equal to or greater than sixty percent (60%) of the total rentable space in the Project which has been demised under executed and delivered leases in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such fire or other casualty or taking, whichever the case may be, shall remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration, subject to an appropriate rent abatement (covered by loss of rental insurance), notwithstanding the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be; |
|
|
|
|
(iv) |
Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion in compliance with all applicable laws, including, without limitation, all applicable Environmental Laws; |
46
|
|
|
|
(v) |
Administrative Agent shall be reasonably satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Notes, which will be incurred with respect to the Project as a result of the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in (iii), if applicable, or (3) by other funds of Borrower; |
|
|
|
|
(vi) |
Administrative Agent shall be reasonably satisfied that the Restoration will be substantially completed in accordance with applicable laws so that the tenants can legally and physically occupy their space on or before the earliest to occur of (1) three (3) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2) twelve (12) months after the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation, or (3) such time as may be required under applicable law, in order to repair and restore the Project to the condition it was in immediately prior to such Casualty or Condemnation or (4) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 3.1(1)(c); |
|
|
|
|
(vii) |
the Project and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with and permitted under all applicable laws; |
|
|
|
|
(viii) |
Administrative Agent shall be satisfied that the Debt Service Coverage Ratio after the completion of the Restoration shall be equal to or greater than the Debt Service Coverage Ratio immediately prior to the Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable; |
|
|
|
|
(ix) |
such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the total and permanent (following the Restoration) loss of access to the Project or the related improvements; |
|
|
|
|
(x) |
Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Administrative Agent a signed detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower’s architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be acceptable to Administrative Agent; |
|
|
|
|
(xi) |
the Net Proceeds together with any cash or letter of credit deposited by Borrower with Administrative Agent are sufficient in Administrative Agent’s reasonable discretion to cover the cost of the Restoration; and |
|
|
|
|
(xii) |
the Property Management Agreement in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, shall (1) remain in full force and effect during the Restoration and shall not otherwise terminate as a result of the Casualty or Condemnation or the Restoration or (2) if terminated, |
47
|
|
|
|
|
shall have been replaced with a replacement Property Management Agreement with a qualified Property Manager, prior to the opening or reopening of the Project or any portion thereof for business with the public. |
(b) The Net Proceeds shall be held by Administrative Agent in an interest bearing account (with interest to be available to Borrower to the same extent as Net Proceeds are made available pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.2) and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2, shall constitute additional security for the Loans and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Administrative Agent to, or as directed by, Lead Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full (less Casualty Retainage), and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other Liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Project which have not either been fully bonded to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent by the title company issuing the title insurance policy.
(c) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration, the cost of which is greater than the Threshold Amount, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) in all material respects by Administrative Agent and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Administrative Agent (the “Casualty Consultant”). Administrative Agent shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration the cost of which is greater than the Threshold Amount, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Administrative Agent and the Casualty Consultant. All costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower.
(d) In no event shall Administrative Agent be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 3.2(2), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration (but shall not be duplicative of such amounts actually held back by Borrower). The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Administrative Agent that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2 and that all approvals
48
necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Project have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Administrative Agent receives evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Administrative Agent will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Administrative Agent that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or by the title company issuing the title insurance policy for the Project, and receives an endorsement to such title insurance policy insuring the continued priority of the Lien of the Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If required by Administrative Agent, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
(e) Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.
(f) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Administrative Agent in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, if any, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”), either in cash or a letter of credit, with Administrative Agent before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Administrative Agent shall be held by Administrative Agent in the Casualty/Taking Account in accordance with the Cash Management Agreement and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof shall constitute additional security for the Loans and other obligations under the Loan Documents.
(g) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Administrative Agent after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Administrative Agent that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2, hereof and the receipt by Administrative Agent of evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Administrative Agent to Lead Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing.
(3) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Lead Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 3.2(2)(g) hereof may be retained and applied by Administrative Agent toward the payment of the Loans (without any prepayment premium) whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion shall deem proper, or,
49
at the sole and absolute discretion of Administrative Agent, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Lead Borrower for such purposes as Administrative Agent shall approve, in its sole and absolute discretion. If Administrative Agent shall receive and retain Net Proceeds, the Lien of the Mortgage shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received and retained by Administrative Agent and actually applied by Administrative Agent in reduction of the Loans.
Section 3.3 Casualty and Condemnation.
(a) If the Project shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Administrative Agent and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of the Restoration of the Project as nearly as possible to the condition the Project was in immediately prior to such Casualty, with such alterations as may be reasonably approved by Administrative Agent and otherwise in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance (provided that, if Net Proceeds are required to be made available to Borrower for Restoration pursuant to the terms of Section 3.2 hereof, they are made available to Borrower for Restoration). Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower.
(b) Lead Borrower shall promptly give Administrative Agent notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of all or any part of the Project and shall deliver to Administrative Agent copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Administrative Agent may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall, from time to time, deliver to Administrative Agent all instruments reasonably requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Administrative Agent, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including, but not limited to, any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Loans at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Notes and in this Agreement and the Loans shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Administrative Agent, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Loans. Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Notes. If the Project or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall, promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Project and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 3.2 hereof. If the Project is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Administrative Agent of the Award, Administrative Agent shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Notes shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Loans.

ARTICLE 4
RESERVES; COLLATERAL LETTERS OF CREDIT
Section 4.1 Real Estate Tax and Insurance Reserve Fund.
(1) Deposits. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall deposit with Administrative Agent the amount of $213,645.46, which amount shall be held by Administrative Agent and disbursed by Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.1(2) (with such disbursements that would have been made by Depository Bank to be made directly by Administrative Agent) until such time as the Cash Management Agreement has been entered into, at which time Administrative Agent shall deposit any remaining amounts held by it and not disbursed pursuant hereto into the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account. On each Payment Date, Borrower shall deposit with Administrative Agent, for deposit in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account, (i) a monthly amount, as determined by Administrative Agent, which will be sufficient to accumulate with Administrative Agent thirty (30) days prior to each due date therefor sufficient funds to pay all real estate taxes which Administrative Agent estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months, and (ii) a monthly amount, as determined by Administrative Agent, which will be sufficient to accumulate with Administrative Agent thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the insurance policies sufficient funds to pay all premiums which Administrative Agent estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the insurance policies during the next ensuing twelve (12) months (said amounts in clauses (i) and (ii) above, together with the amount set forth in the first sentence of this Section 4.1(1), being, collectively, the “Tax and Insurance Reserve Fund”). If at any time Administrative Agent reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Reserve Fund is not or will not be sufficient to pay real estate taxes and insurance premiums by the dates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above, Administrative Agent shall notify Lead Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase its monthly payments to Administrative Agent by the amount that Administrative Agent estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency thirty (30) days prior to delinquency of the real estate taxes and/or thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the insurance policies, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if Borrower has an umbrella insurance policy that: (x) provides acceptable coverage for the Project, (y) is in full force and effect, and (z) is acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, then Borrower shall not be required to make the deposits set forth in clause (ii) above with respect to the renewal of insurance policies.
(2) Disbursements. Borrower shall furnish Administrative Agent with (i) bills for the charges for which such deposits are required and (ii) a disbursement request (in a form reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent), executed by an authorized officer of Borrower, at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the charges first become payable. Provided that no Event of Default exists, Administrative Agent will direct the Depository Bank to apply the Tax and Insurance Reserve Fund to payments of insurance premiums and real estate taxes required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 9.2, respectively, and under the Mortgage but not, in any event, earlier than ten (10) days prior to the due dates thereof. In making any payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Reserve Fund, the Depository Bank may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to real estate taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to insurance premiums),
51
without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof unless said xxxx, statement or estimate is obviously incorrect. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Reserve Fund shall exceed the amounts due for real estate taxes and insurance premiums pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 9.2, respectively, Administrative Agent shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, return any excess to Lead Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Reserve Fund. Provided that on the date that said real estate taxes are due and payable, no Event of Default exists and sufficient funds are on deposit in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Fund to pay real estate taxes, Borrower shall not be liable to pay and shall not be charged with any late charges, interest and/or penalties imposed by or payable to any Governmental Authority as a result of the Depository Bank’s failure to pay real estate taxes prior to the date that same become delinquent.
Section 4.2 Tenant Improvement/Leasing Reserve Letter of Credit.
Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders an unconditional, irrevocable standby letter of credit (the “TI/LC Letter of Credit”) in the amount of $4,610,000.00 to be used for the payment of future tenant improvements and leasing commissions, which TI/LC Letter of Credit conforms with the requirements of a Collateral Letter of Credit (except that the TI/LC Letter of Credit delivered on the Closing Date only shall not be required to include an “evergreen” automatic renewal provision). The amount of the TI/LC Letter of Credit shall be reduced, upon the written request of Borrower made not more than once per calendar month, in connection with the payment by Borrower of amounts for tenant improvements and leasing commissions for newly executed leases entered into at the Project which have been approved by Administrative Agent or are deemed approved pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof. Reductions to the TI/LC Letter of Credit shall be calculated using a tenant improvement allowance equal to the lesser of actual tenant improvement costs or $20.00 per net leasable square foot and reductions for leasing commissions shall be calculated using a leasing commissions allowance equal to the lesser of actual leasing commissions or $26.58 per net leasable square foot. The TI/LC Letter of Credit shall be subject to each of the terms and conditions set forth in Section 4.5 with respect to a Collateral Letter of Credit subject to the following additional terms:
(1) The TI/LC Letter of Credit delivered on the Closing Date shall have an expiry date no earlier than February 1, 2010. At least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of such TI/LC Letter of Credit and each renewal and extension thereof Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent either (i) a replacement, extension or renewal TI/LC Letter of Credit, in accordance with the terms hereof, or (ii) notice that such replacement, extension or renewal TI/LC Letter of Credit shall not be delivered.
(2) Following a draw by Administrative Agent on the TI/LC Letter of Credit solely because of the failure to furnish Administrative Agent with a replacement or renewal of the TI/LC Letter of Credit, Administrative Agent will deposit such proceeds in the Additional Cash Collateral Account as security for the purposes for which such TI/LC Letter of Credit was delivered. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to draw upon such deposited proceeds to the same extent it would have been entitled to make a draw under the TI/LC Letter of Credit and such deposited proceeds shall be subject to disbursement to Borrower on the same basis as
52
reductions to the TI/LC Letter of Credit are calculated, as described above. Administrative Agent shall direct the Depository Bank to disburse the full remaining amount of such proceeds to Borrower provided (i) Borrower delivers to Administrative Agent a replacement TI/LC Letter of Credit acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, (ii) there exists no Event of Default or Potential Default, and (iii) Borrower pays all of Administrative Agent’s fees and expenses in connection with such draw and disbursement.
(3) In the event that Borrower fails to deliver to Administrative Agent a replacement, extension or renewal TI/LC Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof, and Administrative Agent does not draw on the TI/LC Letter of Credit prior to its expiry date then Borrower shall furnish such replacement, extension or renewal TI/LC Letter of Credit or Additional Cash Collateral in the required amount of such TI/LC Letter of Credit no later than ten (10) days after the expiry date of such TI/LC Letter of Credit.
Section 4.3 Reserved.

53
|
|
|
hereunder; |
|
|
|
(E) to account fully for and promptly deliver to Administrative Agent, in the form received, all documents, chattel paper, instruments and agreements constituting the Reserve Account Collateral hereunder, endorsed to Administrative Agent or in blank, as requested by Administrative Agent, and accompanied by such powers as appropriate and until so delivered all such documents, instruments, agreements and proceeds shall be held by Borrower in trust for Administrative Agent, separate from all other property of Borrower; and |
|
|
|
(F) from time to time upon request by Administrative Agent, to furnish such further assurances of Borrower’s title with respect to the Reserve Account Collateral, execute such written agreements, or do such other acts, all as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate the purposes of this agreement or as may be required by law, or in order to perfect or continue the first-priority lien and security interest of Administrative Agent in the Reserve Account Collateral. |
(2) Rights on Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent, at its option, may withdraw the Reserve Funds and the other funds in the Security Accounts and apply such funds to the items for which the Reserve Funds were established or to payment of the Loans 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 such funds shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under the Loan Documents.
(3) Prohibition Against Further Encumbrance. Borrower shall not, without the prior consent of Administrative Agent, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Reserve Funds or the Security Accounts or permit any Lien to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, except those naming Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto.
(4) Release of Reserve Funds. Any amount remaining in the Reserve Funds and the Security Accounts after the Loans have been paid in full shall be promptly returned to Borrower.
Section 4.5 Collateral Letters of Credit. With respect to any Collateral Letter of Credit which Borrower may furnish or cause to be furnished to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents:
(1) Administrative Agent will be entitled, among other things, to make one or more draws by presentment thereof to the issuing bank accompanied only by Administrative Agent’s clean sight-draft, it being intended that the issuing bank shall have no right to inquire as to Administrative Agent’s right to draw upon such Collateral Letter of Credit;
(2) Administrative Agent shall be entitled, among other things, to draw upon each Collateral Letter of Credit, in whole, or in part from time to time, upon the occurrence and
54
during the continuance of any Event of Default or under the other circumstances under which a draw shall be permitted under the Loan Documents or the Collateral Letter of Credit;
(3) Administrative Agent shall have the right to draw upon any Collateral Letter of Credit within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of such Collateral Letter of Credit and each renewal and extension thereof unless, at least thirty (30) days prior to such expiration date of such Collateral Letter of Credit and each renewal and extension thereof, Borrower shall have furnished a replacement, extension or renewal Collateral Letter of Credit, acceptable to Administrative Agent, it being the intent hereof that at no time shall the unexpired term of any Collateral Letter of Credit be less than thirty (30) days. If Administrative Agent draws upon a Collateral Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms of this subsection (3), then Administrative Agent shall hold the proceeds thereof in the Additional Cash Collateral Account as additional collateral for the Obligations, to be applied in accordance with subsections (4) and (5) below.
(4) Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to draw upon a Collateral Letter of Credit if Administrative Agent believes that its rights to draw on such Collateral Letter of Credit could be in jeopardy. Without limiting the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to draw on a Collateral Letter of Credit if the credit rating or financial condition of the issuing bank is no longer meets the minimum rating contained in the definition of Collateral Letter of Credit. Following a draw by Administrative Agent on a Collateral Letter of Credit solely because of the deterioration of the creditworthiness of the issuing bank, Administrative Agent will deposit such proceeds in the Additional Cash Collateral Account as security for the purposes for which such Letter of Credit was delivered and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to draw upon such proceeds to the same extent it would have been entitled to make a draw under the applicable Letter of Credit. Administrative Agent shall direct the Depository Bank to disburse such proceeds to Borrower provided (i) Borrower delivers to Administrative Agent a replacement Collateral Letter of Credit within ten (10) days of Administrative Agent’s draw, (ii) there exists no Event of Default or Potential Default, and (iii) Borrower pays all of Administrative Agent’s fees and expenses in connection with such draw and disbursement.
(5) No draw by Administrative Agent on any Collateral Letter of Credit shall cure or be deemed to cure any Event of Default or limit in any respect any of Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ remedies under the Loan Documents, it being understood that Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights and remedies hereunder shall be cumulative and Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have no obligations to apply the proceeds of any draw to missed installments or other amounts then due and unpaid under the Loans. Proceeds of any draw upon a Collateral Letter of Credit (after reimbursement of any costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and reimbursements, incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with such draw) may be applied by Administrative Agent to the payment of the Loans in such manner as Administrative Agent may determine. No delay or omission of Administrative Agent or the Lenders in exercising any right to draw on a Collateral Letter of Credit shall impair any such right, or shall be construed as a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any Event of Default.
(6) Administrative Agent shall, upon request, release its rights in any Collateral Letters of Credit and surrender such Collateral Letters of Credit to the issuing bank upon the payment in full of all Loans.

Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur Debts and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such Debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by Borrower and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower).
Section 7.12 Full and Accurate Disclosure. No statement of fact made by or on behalf of Borrower or any Borrower Party in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate, statement or questionnaire delivered by Borrower or any Borrower Party in connection with the Loans contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading. There is no fact presently known to Borrower or any Borrower Party which has not been disclosed to Administrative Agent which might have a Material Adverse Effect.

Neither party to such agreement is in default under such agreement and the Property Manager has no defense, offset right or other right to withhold performance under or terminate such agreement.
Section 7.15 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Borrower do not and will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property or assets of Borrower pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, operating agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which any of Borrower’s property or assets is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over Borrower or any of Borrower’s properties or assets, and any consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court or any such regulatory authority or other governmental agency or body required for the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect.

Section 7.16 Title. Borrower has good, marketable and insurable fee simple title to the Project, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever, except for the Permitted Encumbrances and such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents. The Mortgage creates (and upon the recordation thereof and of any related financing statements there will be perfected) (1) a valid Lien on the Project, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances and (2) security interests in and to, and collateral assignments of, all personalty (including the leases), all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to any applicable Permitted Encumbrances and such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents. There are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Project which are or may become a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents. None of the Permitted Encumbrances, individually or in the aggregate, materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage and this Agreement, materially and adversely affect the value of the Project, impair the use or operations of the Project or impair Borrower’s ability to pay its obligations in a timely manner.

64
notice from any insurance company or bonding company of any defects or inadequacies in the Project, or any part thereof, which would adversely affect the insurability of the same or cause the imposition of extraordinary premiums or charges thereon or of any termination or threatened termination of any policy of insurance or bond.
Section 7.22 Boundaries. All of the Improvements lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Project, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Project, and no Improvements encroach upon or violate any easements or other encumbrances upon the Project, so as to materially adversely affect the value or marketability of the Project, except those which are insured against by title insurance.

Section 12.3 Limitation on Interest. It is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Accordingly, all agreements between Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the Loans are hereby expressly limited so that in no event, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Administrative Agent or any Lender or charged by any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be lent hereunder or otherwise, exceed the maximum amount allowed by law. If the Loans would be usurious under applicable law (including the laws of the State and the laws of the United States of America), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents: (1) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received under the Loan Documents shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited on the Notes by the holders thereof (or, if the Notes have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower); and (2) if maturity is accelerated by reason of an election by Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, or in the event of any prepayment, then any consideration which constitutes interest may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by applicable law. In such case, excess interest, if any, provided for in the Loan Documents or otherwise, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread from the date of advance until payment in full so that the actual rate of interest is uniform through the term hereof. If such amortization, proration, allocation and spreading is not permitted under applicable law, then such excess interest shall be cancelled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the Notes (or, if the Notes have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower). The terms and provisions of this Section 12.3 shall control and supersede every other provision of the Loan Documents. The Loan Documents are contracts made under and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State, except that if at any time the laws of the United States of America permit the Lenders to contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive a higher rate of interest than is allowed by the laws of the State (whether such federal laws directly so provide or refer to the law of any state), then such federal laws shall to such extent govern as to the rate of interest which the Lenders may contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive under the Loan Documents.
Section 12.4 Invalid Provisions. If any provision of any Loan Document is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable; the Loan Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part thereof; the remaining provisions thereof shall remain in full effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom; and in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of such Loan Document a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible to be legal, valid and enforceable.
Section 12.5 Reimbursement of Expenses. Borrower shall pay or reimburse Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders within ten (10) Business Days of demand by the applicable party for: (1) all expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the
85
Loans, including reasonable fees and expenses of Administrative Agent’s attorneys, environmental, engineering and other consultants, and fees, charges or taxes for the negotiation, recording or filing of Loan Documents, (2) all expenses of Administrative Agent in connection with the administration of the Loans, including audit costs, inspection fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursement, settlement of condemnation and casualty awards, and premiums for title insurance and endorsements thereto, (3) all of Administrative Agent’s reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of Administrative Agent’s external counsel) incurred in connection with the syndication of the Loans to the Lenders, and (4) Administrative Agent and the Lenders for all amounts expended, advanced or incurred by Administrative Agent and the Lenders to collect the Notes, or to enforce the rights of Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to defend or assert the rights and claims of Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or with respect to the Project (by litigation or other proceedings), which amounts will include all court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, fees and expenses of financial advisors, fees of auditors and accountants, and investigation expenses as may be incurred by Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with any such matters (whether or not litigation is instituted), together with interest at the Default Rate on each such amount from the date of disbursement until the date of reimbursement to Administrative Agent and the Lenders, all of which shall constitute part of the Loans and shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
Section 12.6 Approvals; Third Parties; Conditions. All approval rights retained or exercised by Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to leases, contracts, plans, studies and other matters are solely to facilitate the Lenders’ credit underwriting, and shall not be deemed or construed as a determination that the Lenders have passed on the adequacy thereof for any other purpose and may not be relied upon by Borrower or any other Person. This Agreement is for the sole and exclusive use of Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lead Borrower and Borrower and may not be enforced, nor relied upon, by any Person other than Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lead Borrower and Borrower. All conditions of the obligations of Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder, including any obligation to make advances, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, their successors and assigns, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions or be entitled to assume that the Lenders will refuse to make advances in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of such conditions, and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Administrative Agent and the Lenders at any time in their sole discretion.
Section 12.7 Lenders and Administrative Agent Not in Control; No Partnership. None of the covenants or other provisions contained in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to, give Administrative Agent or any Lender the right or power to exercise control over the affairs or management of Borrower, the powers of Administrative Agent and the Lenders being limited to the rights to exercise the remedies referred to in the Loan Documents. The relationship between Borrower and the Lenders is, and at all times shall remain, solely that of debtor and creditor. No covenant or provision of the Loan Documents is intended, nor shall it be deemed or construed, to create a partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between Administrative Agent, the Lenders, Lead Borrower and Borrower or to create an equity in the Project in Administrative Agent or any Lender. Administrative Agent and the
86
Lenders neither undertake nor assume any responsibility or duty to Borrower or to any other person with respect to the Project or the Loans, except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents; and notwithstanding any other provision of the Loan Documents: (1) neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender is, nor shall be construed as, a partner, joint venturer, alter ego, manager, controlling person or other business associate or participant of any kind of Borrower or any Borrower Party or any of their respective stockholders, members, or partners and neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender intends to ever assume such status; (2) no Lender or Administrative Agent shall in any event be liable for any Debts, expenses or losses incurred or sustained by Borrower or any Borrower Party; and (3) no Lender or Administrative Agent shall be deemed responsible for or a participant in any acts, omissions or decisions of Borrower or any Borrower Party or any of their respective stockholders, members, or partners. Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower disclaim any intention to create any partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower, or to create an equity in the Project in Administrative Agent or any Lender, or any sharing of liabilities, losses, costs or expenses.
Section 12.8 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to this Agreement.
Section 12.9 Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.24, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower and the respective successors and permitted assigns.
Section 12.10 Renewal, Extension or Rearrangement. All provisions of the Loan Documents shall apply with equal effect to each and all promissory notes and amendments thereof hereinafter executed which in whole or in part represent a renewal, extension, increase or rearrangement of the Loans. For portfolio management purposes, the Lenders may elect to divide the Loans into two or more separate loans evidenced by separate promissory notes so long as the payment and other obligations of Borrower are not effectively increased or otherwise modified. Borrower agrees to cooperate with Administrative Agent and the Lenders and to execute such documents as Administrative Agent reasonably may request to effect such division of the Loans.
Section 12.11 Waivers. No course of dealing on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender, their officers, employees, consultants or agents, nor any failure or delay by Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to exercising any right, power or privilege of Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents, shall operate as a waiver thereof.
Section 12.12 Cumulative Rights. Rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative, and the exercise or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy.
Section 12.13 Singular and Plural. Words used in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in the singular, where the context so permits, shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa. The definitions of words in the singular in this Agreement and the other Loan

Section 12.17 Promotional Material. Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders to issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials in connection with Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s own promotional and marketing activities, and describing the Loans in general terms or in detail and Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s participation in the Loans. All references to Administrative Agent or any Lender contained in any press release, advertisement or promotional material issued by Borrower shall be approved in writing by Administrative Agent and such Lender in advance of issuance.
Section 12.18 Survival. All of the representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnities of Borrower hereunder (including environmental matters under Article 5, the obligations under Sections 2.9(1), 2.9(5) and 2.9(6)), and under the indemnification provisions of the other Loan Documents shall survive (a) the repayment in full of the Loans and the release of the Liens evidencing or securing the Loans, (b) the transfer (by sale, foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) of any or all right, title and interest in and to the Project to any party, whether or not an Affiliate of Borrower and (c) in the case of any Lender that may assign any interest in its Commitment or Loans hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the making of such assignment, notwithstanding that such assigning Lender may cease to be a “Lender” hereunder.
Section 12.19 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH
88
THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTION OF EITHER PARTY OR ANY EXERCISE BY ANY PARTY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THE LOANS OR THE PROJECT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY ACTION TO RESCIND OR CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT, AND ANY CLAIM OR DEFENSE ASSERTING THAT THIS AGREEMENT WAS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED OR IS OTHERWISE VOID OR VOIDABLE). THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER TO ENTER THIS AGREEMENT.
Section 12.20 Remedies of Borrower. It is expressly understood and agreed that, notwithstanding any applicable law or any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the liability of Administrative Agent and each Lender (including their respective successors and assigns) and any recourse of Borrower against Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be limited solely and exclusively to their respective interests in the Loans and/or Commitments or the Project. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Administrative Agent, any of the Lenders, or their agents, acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by applicable law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent, any Lender or any such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, or otherwise violated this Agreement or the Loan Documents, Borrower agrees that none of Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their agents shall be liable for any incidental, indirect, special, punitive, consequential or speculative damages or losses resulting from such failure to act reasonably or promptly in accordance with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Accordingly, the Loan Documents may not be
90
contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties. If any conflict or inconsistency exists between this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the terms of this Agreement shall control.
Section 12.23 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which shall constitute one document.
Section 12.24 Assignments and Participations.
(1) Assignments by Borrower. Borrower may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under the Notes without the prior consent of all of the Lenders and Administrative Agent.
(2) Assignments by the Lenders. Each Lender may assign any of its Loans, its Note and its Commitment (but only with the consent of Administrative Agent); provided that:
(a) no such consent by Administrative Agent shall be required in the case of any assignment by any Lender to another Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender or such other Lender (provided that in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender, the assigning Lender will not be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents and Administrative Agent may continue to deal only with such assigning Lender);
(b) except to the extent Administrative Agent shall otherwise consent, any such partial assignment (other than to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender) shall be in an amount at least equal to $10,000,000;
(c) each such assignment (including an assignment to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender) by a Lender of its Loans or Commitment shall be made in such manner so that the same portion of its Loans and Commitment is assigned to the respective assignee;
(d) subject to the applicable Lender’s compliance with the provisions of clauses (b) and (c) above, Administrative Agent’s consent to an assignment shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned if (i) such assignment is made to an Eligible Assignee, and (ii) the provisions of clause (e) have been satisfied; and
(e) upon execution and delivery by the assignee (even if already a Lender) to Borrower and Administrative Agent of an Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which such assignee agrees to become a “Lender” hereunder (if not already a Lender) having the Commitment and Loans specified in such instrument, and upon consent thereto by Administrative Agent to the extent required above, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise consented to by Administrative Agent), the obligations, rights and benefits of a Lender hereunder holding the Commitment and Loans (or portions thereof) assigned to it (in addition to the Commitment and Loans, if any, theretofore held by such assignee) and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, be released from the Commitment (or portion thereof) so assigned. Upon each such assignment the assigning Lender shall pay Administrative Agent a processing and recording fee of $3,500 (unless the assignee is
91
an Affiliate of the Assigning Lender) and the reasonable fees and disbursements of Administrative Agent’s counsel incurred in connection therewith.
(3) Participations.
(a) A Lender may sell or agree to sell to one or more other Persons (each a “Participant”) a participation in all or any part of any Loans held by it, or in its Commitment, provided (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) Borrower, Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In no event shall a Lender that sells a participation agree with the Participant to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document except that such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase or extend the term of such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the related Loan or Loans or any portion of any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon, or any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such interest or fee or (v) consent to any modification, supplement or waiver hereof or of any of the other Loan Documents to the extent that the same, under Section 12.2, requires the consent of each Lender. Subject to subsection (3)(b) of this Section 12.24, Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.9(1), 2.9(5), and 2.9(6) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (2) of this Section 12.24. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.24 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 12.24 as though it were a Lender.
(b) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.9(1) or 2.9(6) than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that is a non-U.S. Person that would become a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.9(6) unless Lead Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 2.9(6) as though it were a Lender
(4) Certain Pledges. In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.24 (but without being subject thereto), any Lender may (without notice to Borrower, Administrative Agent or any other Lender and without payment of any fee) assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Note to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, and such Loans and Note shall be fully transferable as provided therein. No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.
92
(5) Provision of Information to Assignees and Participants. A Lender may furnish any information concerning Borrower, any Borrower Party or any of their respective Affiliates or the Project in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants); provided that such assignee and participant agree to be bound by the terms of Section 12.29.
(6) No Assignments to Borrower or Affiliates. Anything in this Section 12.24 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to Borrower or any of its Affiliates without the prior consent of each Lender.
Section 12.25 Brokers. Borrower hereby represents to Administrative Agent and each Lender that Borrower has not dealt with any broker, underwriters, placement agent, or finder in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower in connection with the transactions contemplated herein.
Section 12.26 Right of Set-off.
(1) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each of the Lenders is, subject (as between the Lenders) to the provisions of subsection (3) of this Section 12.26, hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held, and other indebtedness at any time owing, by such Lender in any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any and all of the respective obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or any other Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured and such deposits or indebtedness may be unmatured. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that the exercise by any Lender of offset, set-off, banker’s lien, or similar rights against any deposit or other indebtedness of Borrower whether or not located in New York or any other state with certain laws restricting lenders from pursuing multiple collection methods, could result under such laws in significant impairment of the ability of all the Lenders to recover any further amounts in respect of the Loan. Therefore, each Lender agrees that no Lender shall exercise any such right of set-off, banker’s lien, or otherwise, against any assets of Borrower (including all general or special, time or demand, provisional or other deposits and other indebtedness owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrower) without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.
(2) Each Lender shall promptly notify Lead Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Lenders under this Section 12.26 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which the Lenders may have.
93
(3) Each Lender agrees that it shall turn over to Administrative Agent any payment (whether voluntary or involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise) on account of the Loans held by it in excess of its ratable portion (in accordance with this Agreement and any separate agreement among Administrative Agent and the Lenders) of payments on account of the Loans obtained by all the Lenders.
Section 12.27 Limitation on Liability of Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ Officers, Employees, etc. Any obligation or liability whatsoever of Administrative Agent or any Lender which may arise at any time under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be satisfied, if at all, out of Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s respective assets only. No such obligation or liability shall be personally binding upon, nor shall resort for the enforcement thereof be had to, the property of any of Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s shareholders, directors, officers, employees or agents, regardless of whether such obligation or liability is in the nature of contract, tort or otherwise.
Section 12.28 Cooperation with Syndication. Borrower acknowledges that Arranger intends to syndicate a portion of the Commitments to one or more Lenders (the “Syndication”) and in connection therewith, Borrower will take all actions as Arranger may reasonably request to assist Arranger in its Syndication effort. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower shall, at the request of Arranger (i) facilitate the review of the Loan and the Project by any prospective Lender; (ii) assist Arranger and otherwise cooperate with Arranger in the preparation of information offering materials (which assistance may include reviewing and commenting on drafts of such information materials and drafting portions thereof); (iii) deliver updated information on Borrower and the Project; (iv) make representatives of Borrower available to meet with prospective Lenders at tours of the Project and bank meetings; (v) facilitate direct contact between the senior management and advisors of Borrower and any prospective Lender; and (vi) provide Arranger with all information reasonably deemed necessary by it to complete the Syndication successfully. Borrower agrees to take such further action, in connection with documents and amendments to the Loan Documents, as may reasonably be required to effect such Syndication; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12.28 or Section 12.29 to the contrary, Borrower shall not be required to enter into any such documents and amendments which would alter any of the material economic terms of the Loan Documents or which would create new or greater obligations or liabilities on Borrower Parties under the Loan Documents.
Section 12.29 Severance of Loan. Loan Components. The Administrative Agent shall have the right, at any time, with respect to all or any portion of the Loan, to (a) cause the Notes, the Mortgage and the other Security Documents to be severed and/or split into two or more separate notes, mortgages and other security agreements, so as to evidence and secure one or more senior and subordinate mortgage loans, (b) create one or more senior and subordinate notes (i.e., an A/B or A/B/C structure) secured by the Mortgage and the other Security Documents, (c) create multiple components of the Notes (and allocate or re-allocate the outstanding principal amount of the Loan among such components) or (d) otherwise sever the Loan into two or more loans secured by the Mortgage and the other Security Documents (each of clauses (a) through (d), a “Bifurcation”); in each such case, in whatever proportions and priorities as Administrative Agent may so direct in its discretion to Administrative Agent; provided, however, that in each such instance (i) the outstanding principal amount of all the Notes evidencing the Loan (or
94
components of such Notes) immediately following such Bifurcation shall be equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan immediately prior to such Bifurcation, and (ii) the weighted average Applicable Margin and/or Base Rate, as applicable, with respect to the new notes immediately after such Bifurcation and at all times prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default shall not exceed the weighted average Applicable Margin and/or Base Rate, as applicable, with respect to the initial Notes delivered hereunder (as such interest rates are subject to being adjusted from time to time in accordance herewith, including as a result of the accrual of interest at the Default Rate). If requested by Administrative Agent in writing, Borrower shall execute within ten (10) days after such request, a severance agreement, amendments to or amendments and restatements of any one or more Loan Documents, and such documentation as Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence and/or effectuate any such Bifurcation, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.
Section 12.30 Confidentiality. Each of Administrative Agent and the Lenders and Borrower Parties and Sponsor agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information, except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (a) to it 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 shall be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority, (c) to the extent required by Applicable Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) to any assignee or pledgee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee or pledgee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of Borrower or Administrative Agent, as applicable, or (h) to the extent such Confidential Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 12.29 or of arrangements entered into pursuant hereto or (ii) becomes available to such party from a source other than Borrower or its Affiliates or the Administrative Agent or the Lender or their Affiliates, as applicable; provided, however, the obligation to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information provided hereunder shall expire twelve (12) months after the date upon which the Loans hereunder are indefeasibly paid in full. Administrative Agent and each Lender, to the extent required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 12.29, shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information as a commercial banker exercising reasonable and customary business practices would accord to its own confidential information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the information subject to this Section 12.29 shall not include, and Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose without limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011 4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to Administrative Agent or such Lender relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. For purposes of this Section 12.29, the information that shall be treated as Confidential Information shall mean, in the case of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, written non-public information concerning the Project
95
and, in the case of Borrower, information concerning the terms and conditions set forth in the Loan Documents.
Section 12.31 Designation of Lead Borrower as Agent for Borrower.
(1) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Lead Borrower as that Borrower’s agent to obtain loans and advances under the Loan. As the disclosed principal for its agent, each Borrower shall be obligated to the Agent and the Lenders on account of loans and advances so made under the Loan as if made directly by the Lenders to that Borrower, notwithstanding the manner by which such loans and advances are recorded on the books and records of the Lead Borrower and/or of any Borrower (including, without limitation, on account of any such treatment of said loan or advance as an equity investment in a Borrower by Lead Borrower). Lead Borrower shall ensure that each Borrower receives from the Loan proceeds an amount or benefit that is a reasonably equivalent value for the grants of security made by each Borrower to Administrative Agent.
(2) Each Borrower recognizes that credit available to it under the Loan is in excess of and on better terms than it otherwise could obtain on and for its own account and that one of the reasons therefor is its joining in the credit facility contemplated herein with all other Borrowers. Consequently, each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby assumes and agrees fully, faithfully, and punctually to discharge all obligations of all of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents.
(3) The proceeds of the Loan shall be deposited into an account in the name of the Lead Borrower or as otherwise indicated by the Lead Borrower. Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to see to the application of such proceeds.
(4) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Lead Borrower as that Borrower’s attorney-in-fact to act in the Borrower’s name and stead and to do and perform all matters, to grant to the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a security interest in the Collateral, transact all business, and make, execute and acknowledge all Loan Documents and other instruments relating to this Agreement including but not limited to, this Agreement, the Note, and the Security Documents. The Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that the power of attorney created hereby is coupled with an interest.

RECOURSE LIABILITY
Section 13.1 Recourse Liability. No past, present or future member, or any past, present or future shareholder, partner, member, officer, employee, servant, executive, director, agent, authorized representative or Affiliate of Borrower or any member of Borrower, (each such Person, an “Exculpated Party”) shall be personally liable for payments due hereunder or under any other Loan Document or for the performance of any obligation, or breach of any representation or warranty made by Borrower hereunder or thereunder. The sole recourse of the Lenders and Administrative Agent for satisfaction of the obligations of Borrower hereunder and under any other Loan Document shall be against Borrower and its assets and not against any
96
assets or property of any such Exculpated Party other than the direct or indirect ownership interest of such Exculpated Party in Borrower. In the event that a Potential Default or Event of Default occurs in connection with such obligations, no action shall be brought against any such Exculpated Party by virtue of its direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower. In the event of foreclosure or other sale or disposition of the Project, no judgment for any deficiency upon the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be obtainable by the Lenders or Administrative Agent against any such Exculpated Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 13.1 shall affect or diminish the obligations of Borrower or Guarantor under or in respect of each Loan Document to which it is a party, including Guarantor Documents (including the right to name any Guarantor in any foreclosure action in connection with its obligations under the Guarantor Documents) and the Co-Borrower Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.1, each Exculpated Party shall be personally (and on a full recourse basis) liable for and shall indemnify and defend Administrative Agent and the Lenders from and against, and shall hold Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless of, from and against any deficiency, liability, loss, damage, costs, and expenses (including legal fees and disbursements) suffered by Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders and caused by, or arising out of or as a result of any of the following: (i) such Person’s commission of a criminal act, (ii) such Person’s failure to comply with the provisions of the Loan Documents prohibiting a transfer or Change of Control; (iii) such Person’s misappropriation of any cash flow or other revenue derived from or in respect of the Project, including security deposits, insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, or any rental, sales or other income derived directly or indirectly from the Project, or the misapplication of any of the foregoing sums, in either event, in contravention of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (iv) such Person’s fraud or misrepresentation or inaccurate certification made at any time in connection with the Loan Documents or the Loans; (v) such Person’s intentional interference with Administrative Agent’s (or the Lenders’) exercise of its rights under any of the Loan Documents; (vi) such Person’s intentional destruction or removal of fixtures or personal property securing the Loans unless replaced by items of equal value and utility; (vii) such Person’s misapplication or misappropriation of funds disbursed from the Security Accounts or the Controlled Accounts; (viii) such Person’s commissions of intentional waste to or of the Project or any portion thereof or failure to maintain the Project in the manner required by the Loan Documents; (ix) failure to maintain the insurance coverage required by the Loan Documents; (x) failure to pay taxes, assessments and any other charges, including, without limitation, charges for labor or materials, which could result in prior liens against any portion of the Project; (xi) willful misconduct; (xii) Borrower files a voluntary petition under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xiii) such Person files or joins in the filing of, or solicits or acts in concert with, or colludes or conspires with petitioning creditors with respect to, an involuntary petition against Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xiv) Borrower files an answer consenting to or otherwise acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against it, by any other Person under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xv) such Person consents to or acquiesces in or joins in an application for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, or examiner for Borrower or any portion of the Project; (xvi) Borrower makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits, in writing or in any legal proceeding, its insolvency or inability to pay its debts as they become due; or (xvii) Borrower violates any of provisions set forth in the definition of Single
97
Purpose Entity and such violation results in a substantive consolidation of the Borrower or its assets in the bankruptcy of an Affiliate.
Section 13.2 No Waiver of Certain Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (A) neither of Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be deemed to have waived any right which Administrative Agent or any Lender may have under Sections 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, as such sections may be amended, to file a claim for the full amount due to Administrative Agent or such Lender under the Loan Documents or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure the amounts due under the Loan Documents and (B) Administrative Agent may pursue any power of sale, bring any foreclosure action, any action for specific performance, or any other appropriate action or proceedings against Borrower or any other Person for the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to realize upon the collateral for the Loans (including, without limitation, any Net Operating Income to the extent provided for in the Loan Documents) or to obtain the appointment of a receiver.
ARTICLE 14
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
Section 14.1 Appointment, Powers and Immunities. Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents with such powers as are specifically delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and of the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative Agent (which term as used in this sentence and in Section 14.5 and the first sentence of Section 14.6 shall include reference to its Affiliates and its own and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and agents):
(a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document be a trustee for any Lender 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 fiduciary duty to Borrower nor shall any Lender have any fiduciary duty to Borrower or any other Lender;
(b) shall not be responsible to the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except of representations, warranties and certifications expressly made by Administrative Agent to a Lender in writing as set forth in any Assignment and Acceptance executed by Administrative Agent in favor of a Lender), or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by Borrower or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder; and
98
(c) shall not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except to the extent any such action taken or omitted violates Administrative Agent’s standard of care set forth in the first sentence of Section 14.5.
(d) shall not, except to the extent expressly instructed by the Majority Lenders with respect to collateral security under the Security Documents, be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder or under any other Loan Document; and
(e) shall not be required to take any action which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable law.
The relationship between Administrative Agent and each Lender is a contractual relationship only, and nothing herein shall be deemed to impose on Administrative Agent any obligations other than those for which express provision is made herein or in the other Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact, and may delegate all or any part of its obligations hereunder, to third parties and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents, attorneys-in-fact or third parties selected by it in good faith. Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of a Note as the holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a notice of the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been filed with Administrative Agent, any such assignment or transfer to be subject to the provisions of Section 12.24. Except to the extent expressly provided in Sections 14.8, the provisions of this Article 14 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and Borrower shall not have any rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof and the Lenders may Modify or waive such provisions of this Article 14 in their sole and absolute discretion.
Section 14.2 Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including, without limitation, any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telegram or cable) reasonably 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. 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 or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Majority Lenders, and such instructions of the Majority Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders.
Section 14.3 Defaults.
(1) Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Potential Default or Event of Default, other than a payment Event of Default arising out of Section 10.1, unless Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender, Lead Borrower or Borrower specifying such Potential 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 Potential Default or Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall give
99
prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. Within ten (10) days of delivery of such notice of Potential Default or Event of Default from Administrative Agent to the Lenders (or such shorter period of time as Administrative Agent determines is necessary), Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall consult with each other to determine a proposed course of action. Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 14.7) take such action with respect to such Potential Default or Event of Default as shall be directed by the Majority Lenders, provided that, (A) unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, including decisions (1) to make protective advances that Administrative Agent determines are necessary to protect or maintain the Project and (2) to foreclose on any of the Project or exercise any other remedy, with respect to such Potential Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the interest of the Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not be taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of all of the Lenders and (B) no actions approved by the Majority Lenders shall violate the Loan Documents or applicable law; provided further that if no consensus is reached by Majority lenders within one hundred twenty (120) days, Administrative Agent shall commence a foreclosure action with respect to the Project. Each of the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that no individual Lender may separately enforce or exercise any of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents (including the Notes) other than through Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of all material actions which Administrative Agent takes in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14.3(1) and shall continue to consult with the Lenders with respect to all of such actions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Majority Lenders shall at any time direct that a different or additional remedial action be taken from that already undertaken by Administrative Agent, including the commencement of foreclosure proceedings, such different or additional remedial action shall be taken in lieu of or in addition to, the prosecution of such action taken by Administrative Agent; provided that all actions already taken by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 14.3(1) shall be valid and binding on each Lender. All money (other than money subject to the provisions of Section 14.7) received from any enforcement actions, including the proceeds of a foreclosure sale of the Project, shall be applied, first, to the payment or reimbursement of Administrative Agent for expenses incurred in accordance with the provisions of Sections 14.3(2), (3) and (4) and 14.5 and to the payment of the Administrative Fee to the extent not paid by Borrower pursuant to Section 14.11, second, to the payment or reimbursement of the Lenders for expenses incurred in accordance with the provisions of Sections 14.3(2), (3) and (4) and 14.5; third, to the payment or reimbursement of the Lenders for any advances made pursuant to Section 14.3(2); and fourth, to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares (and, if applicable, to Eurohypo Counterparty under any Hedge Agreement for its Additional Interest in accordance with Section 9.15), unless an Unpaid Amount is owed pursuant to Section 14.12, in which event such Unpaid Amount shall be deducted from the portion of such proceeds of the Defaulting Lender and be applied to payment of such Unpaid Amount to the Special Advance Lender.
(2) All losses with respect to interest (including interest at the Default Rate) and other sums payable pursuant to the Notes or incurred in connection with the Loans shall be borne by the Lenders in accordance with their respective proportionate shares of the Loans. All losses incurred in connection with the Loans, the enforcement thereof or the realization of the security therefor, shall be borne by the Lenders in accordance with their respective proportionate shares of the Loan, and the Lenders shall promptly, upon request, remit to Administrative Agent
100
their respective proportionate shares of (i) any actual out of pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with any Default to the extent any expenses have not been paid by Borrower, (ii) any advances made to pay taxes or insurance or otherwise to preserve the Lien of the Security Documents or to preserve and protect the Project, whether or not the amount necessary to be advanced for such purposes exceeds the amount of the Mortgage, and (iii) any other actual out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of the Mortgage or other Loan Documents. To the extent any such advances are recovered in connection with the enforcement of the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, each Lender shall be paid its proportionate share of such recovery after deduction of the expenses of Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
(3) If, at the direction of the Majority Lenders or otherwise as provided in Section 14.3(1), any action(s) is brought to collect on the Notes or enforce the Security Documents or any other Loan Document, such action shall (to the extent permitted under applicable law and the decisions of the court in which such action is brought) be an action brought by Administrative Agent and the Lenders, collectively, to collect on all or a portion of the Notes or enforce the Security Documents or any other Loan Document and counsel selected by Administrative Agent shall prosecute any such action on behalf of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall consult and cooperate with each other in the prosecution thereof. All decisions concerning the appointment of a receiver while such action is pending, the conduct of such receivership, the conduct of such action, the collection of any judgment entered in such action and the settlement of such action shall be made by Administrative Agent. The costs and expenses of any such action shall be borne by the Lenders in accordance with each of their respective proportionate shares.
(4) If, at the direction of the Majority Lenders or otherwise as provided in Section 14.3(1), any action(s) is brought to foreclose the Mortgage, such action shall (to the extent permitted under applicable law and the decisions of the court in which such action is brought) be an action brought by Administrative Agent and the Lenders, collectively, to foreclose all or a portion of the Mortgage and collect on the Notes. Counsel selected by Administrative Agent shall prosecute any such foreclosure on behalf of Administrative Agent and the Lenders and Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall consult and cooperate with each other in the prosecution thereof. All decisions concerning the appointment of a receiver, the conduct of such foreclosure, the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the bid on behalf of Administrative Agent and the Lenders at the foreclosure sale of the Project, the manner of taking and holding title to the Project (other than as set forth in subsection (6) below), and the commencement and conduct of any deficiency judgment proceeding shall be made by Administrative Agent. All decisions concerning the sale of the Project after foreclosure shall be made by the Majority Lenders, provided, however, the Lenders agree that if Administrative Agent receives a bona fide “all cash” (as determined by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) offer for the purchase of the entire Project which has been approved in writing by Administrative Agent and (i) such offer (A) equals or exceeds ninety percent (90%) of the most recent appraised value of the Project as established by an Appraisal that has been completed within six (6) months of such offer and (B) is equal to or greater than ninety percent (90%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, and (ii) the consent of the Majority Lenders is not achieved within ninety (90) days from the date that Administrative Agent received such offer, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection (4), Administrative
101
Agent is irrevocably authorized to accept such offer on behalf of all Lenders. The costs and expenses of foreclosure will be borne by the Lenders in accordance with their respective proportionate shares.
(5) If title is acquired to the Project after a foreclosure sale or by a deed in lieu of foreclosure, title shall be held by Administrative Agent in its own name in trust for the Lenders or, at Administrative Agent’s election, in the name of a wholly owned subsidiary of Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, or a subsidiary wholly owned by the Lenders and managed by the Administrative Agent.
(6) If Administrative Agent (or its subsidiary) acquires title to the Project or is entitled to possession of the Project during or after the foreclosure, all material decisions with respect to the possession, ownership, development, construction, control, operation, leasing, and management of the Project shall be made by Administrative Agent. All income or other money received after so acquiring title to or taking possession of the Project with respect to the Project, including income from the operation and management of the Project and the proceeds of a sale of the Project, shall be applied (subject to the terms of any separate agreement among Administrative Agent and the Lenders), first, to the payment or reimbursement of Administrative Agent and the expenses incurred in accordance with the provisions of this Article 14 and to the payment of the Administrative Fee to the extent not paid by Borrower pursuant to Section 14.11, second, to the payment of operating expenses, taxes and insurance with respect to the Project; third, to the establishment of reasonable reserves for the operation of the Project; fourth, to the payment or reimbursement of the Lenders for any advances made pursuant to Section 14.3(2); fifth to fund any capital improvement, leasing and other reserves; and sixth, to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares (and, if applicable, to Eurohypo Counterparty under any Hedge Agreement for its Additional Interest in accordance with Section 9.15), unless an Unpaid Amount is owed pursuant to Section 14.12, in which event such Unpaid Amount shall be deducted from the portion of such proceeds of the Defaulting Lender and be applied to payment of such Unpaid Amount to the Special Advance Lender.
Section 14.4 Rights as a Lender. With respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it Eurohypo (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) in its capacity as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Eurohypo (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of lending, trust or other business with Borrower (and any of its Affiliates)(to the extent otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement) as if it were not acting as Administrative Agent, and Eurohypo and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.
Section 14.5 Standard of Care; Indemnification. In performing its duties under the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent will exercise the same degree of care as it normally exercises in connection with real estate loans that it syndicates and administers and holds for its own account, but Administrative Agent shall have no further responsibility to any Lender except
102
as expressly provided herein and except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct which resulted in actual loss to such Lender, and, except to such extent, Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility to any Lender for the failure by Administrative Agent to comply with any of Administrative Agent’s obligations to Borrower under the Loan Documents or otherwise. Subject to the terms of any separate agreement among Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the Lenders agree to indemnify Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 12.5, but without limiting the obligations of Borrower under Section 12.5) ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal amount of the Loans held by the Lenders (or, if no Loans are at the time outstanding, ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments), for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses (other than losses due to Borrower’s failure to pay any interest, principal and fees payable by Borrower under the Loan Documents), damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses that Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 12.5, but excluding, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from Administrative Agent’s breach of its standard of care set forth in the first sentence of this Section.
Section 14.6 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of Borrower and its Affiliates and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document. Subject to the provisions of the first sentence of Section 14.5, Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by Borrower of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the Project or the books of Borrower or any of its Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by Administrative Agent hereunder or as otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent and the Lenders, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of Borrower or any of its Affiliates that may come into the possession of Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates.
Section 14.7 Failure to Act. Except for action expressly required of Administrative Agent hereunder, and under the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 14.5 against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
103
Section 14.8 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and Lead Borrower. The Majority Lenders (including all Lenders exclusive of Administrative Agent, for the purposed of determining the Majority Lenders), on the basis of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as to which a final determination is made in a judicial proceeding in which Administrative Agent has had an opportunity to be heard, which determination includes a specific finding that Administrative Agent had acted in a grossly negligent manner or had engaged in willful misconduct), may remove Administrative Agent at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Administrative Agent, Borrower and the other Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent that shall be a Person that meets the qualifications of an Eligible Assignee. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Majority Lenders’ giving notice of removal, as the case may be, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, that shall be an institutional lender that meets the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence. 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 (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and prospective obligations hereunder (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 14.8). The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provision of this Article 14 and Section 12.5 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 14.9 Consents under Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may (without any Lender’s consent) give or withhold its agreement to any amendments of the Loan Documents or any waivers or consents in respect thereof or exercise or refrain from exercising any other rights or remedies which Administrative Agent may have under the Loan Documents or otherwise provided that such actions do not, in Administrative Agent’s reasonable judgment, materially adversely affect the value of any collateral, taken as a whole, or represent a departure from Administrative Agent’s standard of care described in Section 14.5, except that, except as otherwise provided in any separate agreement entered into among Administrative Agent and the Lenders, Administrative Agent shall not agree to the following (provided that no Lender’s consent shall be required for any of the following which are otherwise required or contemplated under the Loan Documents):
(a) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the consent of such Lender;
(b) reduce the principal amount of the Loans or reduce the interest rate thereon without the consent of each Lender affected thereby;
104
(c) increase the interest rate on the Loans (exclusive of imposing the Default Rate) without the consent of all Lenders;
(d) extend any stated payment date for principal of or interest on the Loans payable to any Lender without the consent of each Lender affected thereby;
(e) release Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party from liability under the Loan Documents (except for any assigning Lender pursuant to Section 12.24 and any resigning Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 14.8 without the consent of each Lender (except that no such consent shall be required, and Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to release Borrower and Guarantor upon payment of the Obligations in full in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents);
(f) release or subordinate in whole or in part any material portion of the collateral given as security for the Loans without the consent of each Lender (except that no such consent shall be required, and Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to release any Lien covering the collateral under the Security Documents upon payment of the Obligations in full in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents);
(g) modify any of the provisions of Section 12.2 or this Section 14.9 or the definition of “Majority Lenders” or any other provision in the Loan Documents specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder without the consent of each Lender;
(h) modify the terms of, or definition of, any Event of Default without the consent of each Lender;
(i) consent to (i) the sale, transfer or encumbrance of any portion of the Project (or any interest therein) or any direct or indirect ownership interest therein and (ii) the incurrence by Borrower of any additional indebtedness secured by the Project, in each case to the extent such consent is required under the Loan Documents (and subject to any standard of reasonability set forth therein) without the consent of each Lender;
(j) A modification or waiver of conditions to extension of the Maturity Date without the consent of each Lender;
(k) A modification or waiver of any financial covenants of Borrower in the Loan Documents without the consent of the Majority Lenders;
(l) A material modification of the terms of any cash management arrangement or lockbox without the consent of the Majority Lenders; or
(m) a waiver of any Event of Default without consent of the Majority Lenders.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (a) any modification or supplement of ARTICLE 14, or of any of the rights or duties of Administrative Agent hereunder, shall require the consent of Administrative Agent and (b) Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to enter into modifications or amendments to the Loan Documents
105
which are ministerial in nature, including the preparation and execution of Uniform Commercial Code forms, Assignments and Assumptions and subordination and non-disturbance agreements with tenants at the Project. If Administrative Agent solicits any consents or approvals from the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, each Lender shall within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such request, give Administrative Agent written notice of its consent or approval or denial thereof; provided that, if Administrative Agent’s request states that failure to respond within ten (10) Business Days shall be deemed consent and any Lender does not respond within such ten (10) Business Days, such Lender shall be deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent to vote such Lender’s interest with respect to the matter which was the subject of Administrative Agent’s solicitation as Administrative Agent elects. Any such solicitation by Administrative Agent for a consent or approval shall be in writing and shall include a description of the matter or thing as to which such consent or approval is requested and shall include Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof.
Section 14.10 Authorization. Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by the Lenders to execute, deliver and perform in accordance with the terms of each of the Loan Documents to which Administrative Agent is or is intended to be a party and each Lender agrees to be bound by all of the agreements of Administrative Agent contained in such Loan Documents. Borrower shall be entitled to rely on all written agreements, approvals and consents received from Administrative Agent as being that also of the Lenders, without obtaining separate acknowledgment or proof of authorization of same.
Section 14.11 Administrative Fee. So long as the Commitments are in effect and until payment in full of all obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for its sole account, the Administrative Fee. The Administrative Fee shall be payable annually in advance commencing on the Closing Date pursuant to the Fee Letter.
Section 14.12 Defaulting Lenders.
(1) If any Lender (a “Defaulting Lender”) shall for any reason fail to (i) make any respective Loan required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or (ii) pay its proportionate share of an advance or disbursement to protect the Project or the Lien of the Security Documents in accordance with this Agreement, any of the other Lenders may, but shall not be obligated to, make all or a portion of the Defaulting Lender’s Loan or proportionate share of such advance, provided that such Lender gives the Defaulting Lender and Administrative Agent prior notice of its intention to do so. The right to make such advances in respect of the Defaulting Lender shall be exercisable first by the Lender holding the greatest proportionate share and thereafter to each of the Lenders in descending order of their respective proportionate shares of the Loans or in such other manner as the Majority Lenders (excluding the Defaulting Lender) may agree on. Any Lender making all or any portion of the Defaulting Lender’s proportionate share of the applicable Loan or advance in accordance with the foregoing terms and conditions shall be referred to as a “Special Advance Lender”.
(2) In any case where a Lender becomes a Special Advance Lender (i) the Special Advance Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, and the Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have sold, a senior participation in the Defaulting Lender’s respective Loan to the
106
extent of the amount so advanced or disbursed (the “Advanced Amount”) bearing interest at the Loan rates provided herein (including interest at the Default Rate, if applicable) and (ii) the Defaulting Lender shall have no voting rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents so long as it is a Defaulting Lender. It is expressly understood and agreed that each of the respective obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including advancing Loans, losses incurred in connection with the Loan, costs and expenses of enforcement, advancing to preserve the Lien of the Mortgage or to preserve and protect the Project, shall be without regard to any adjustment in the proportionate shares occasioned by the acts of a Defaulting Lender. The Special Advance Lender shall be entitled to an amount (the “Unpaid Amount”) equal to the applicable Advanced Amount, plus any unpaid interest due and owing with respect thereto, less any repayments thereof made by the Defaulting Lender immediately upon demand. The Defaulting Lender shall have the right to repurchase the senior participation in its Loan from the Special Advance Lender at any time by the payment of the Unpaid Amount.
(3) A Special Advance Lender shall (i) give notice to the Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders (provided that failure to deliver said notice to any party other than the Defaulting Lender shall not constitute a default under this Agreement) of the Advance Amount and the percentage of the Special Advance Lender’s senior participation in the Defaulting Lender’s Loan and (ii) in the event of the repayment of any of the Unpaid Amount by the Defaulting Lender, give notice to the Defaulting Lender and Administrative Agent of the fact that the Unpaid Amount has been repaid (in whole or in part), the amount of such repayment and, if applicable, the revised percentage of the Special Advance Lender’s senior participation. Provided that Administrative Agent has received notice of such participation, Administrative Agent shall have the same obligations to distribute interest, principal and other sums received by Administrative Agent with respect to a Special Advance Lender’s senior participation as Administrative Agent has with respect to the distribution of interest, principal and other sums under this Agreement; and at the time of making any distributions to the Lenders, shall make payments to the Special Advance Lender with respect to a Special Advance Lender’s senior participation in the Defaulting Lender’s Loan out of the Defaulting Lender’s share of any such distributions before paying any amounts to the Defaulting Lender.
(4) A Defaulting Lender shall immediately pay to a Special Advance Lender all sums of any kind paid to or received by the Defaulting Lender from Borrower, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or in connection with the realization of the security therefor until the Unpaid Amount is fully repaid. Notwithstanding the fact that the Defaulting Lender may temporarily hold such sums, the Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to hold same as a trustee for the benefit of the Special Advance Lender, it being the express intention of the Lenders that the Special Advance Lender shall have an ownership interest in such sums to the extent of the Unpaid Amount.
(5) Each Defaulting Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and interest at the Default Rate) which they may sustain or incur by reason of the Defaulting Lender’s failure or refusal to abide by its obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except to the extent a Defaulting Lender became a Defaulting Lender due to the gross negligence or willful
107
misconduct of Administrative Agent and/or any Lender. Administrative Agent shall, after payment of any amounts due to any Special Advance Lender pursuant to the terms of subsection (3) above, set-off against any payments due to such Defaulting Lender for the claims of Administrative Agent and the other Lenders pursuant to this indemnity.
(6) In the event any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender and none of the other Lenders elects to be a Special Advance Lender pursuant to subsection (1) above, Borrower shall have the right, at any time prior to the Completion Date, provided that no Potential Default or Event of Default exists, to cause another financial institution, reasonably acceptable to (x) the Majority Lenders if such institution is not an Eligible Assignee or (y) Administrative Agent if such institution is an Eligible Assignee, to assume Defaulting Lender’s obligations with respect to the Advance Amount on the then-existing terms and conditions of the Loan Documents (such replacement institution, a “Replacement Lender”). Such assumption shall be pursuant to a written instrument reasonably satisfactory to administrative Agent. Upon such assumption, the Replacement Lender shall become a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder, with a Commitment in an amount equal to the Advance Amount, and the Defaulting Lender’s Commitment shall automatically be reduced by the Advance Amount. In connection with the foregoing, Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Replacement Lender and the Defaulting Lender substitute notes substantially in the form of Exhibit C and stating: “This Note is a substitute note as contemplated by Section 14.12 of the Agreement; it replaces and is in lieu of that certain note made by Maker dated [date of Note] to the order of [Defaulting Lender] in the principal sum of [Defaulting Lender’s original Commitment].” Such substitute notes shall be in amounts equal to, in the case of the Replacement Lender’s note, the Advance Amount and, in the case of the Defaulting Lender’s note, its Commitment as reduced aforesaid. Such substitute notes shall constitute “Notes” and the obligations evidenced by such substitute notes shall be secured by the Mortgage. In connection with Borrower’s execution of substitute notes as aforesaid, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent evidence, satisfactory to Administrative Agent, of all requisite partnership/limited liability company/corporate action to authorize Borrower’s execution and delivery of the substitute notes and any related documents. Upon delivery of the foregoing substitute notes, each Defaulting Lender shall return to Borrower its note which was replaced, provided that the delivery of a substitute note to the Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 14.12 shall operate to void and replace the note previously held by the Defaulting Lender regardless of whether Defaulting Lender returns the same as required hereby. Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall execute such modifications to the Loan Documents as shall, in the reasonable judgment of Administrative Agent, be necessary or desirable in connection with the substitution of Lenders in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section. Lenders shall reasonably cooperate with Borrower’s attempts to obtain a Replacement Lender, but they shall not be obligated to modify the Loan Documents in connection therewith, other than modifications pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.
Section 14.13 Liability of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall not have any liabilities or responsibilities to Borrower on account of the failure of any Lender (other than Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender) to perform its obligations hereunder or to any Lender on account of the failure of Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.
108
Section 14.14 Transfer of Agency Function. Without the consent of Borrower or any Lender, 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 Lead Borrower and the Lenders thereof.
Section 14.15 Information for Lenders. Administrative Agent shall promptly provide each Lender with copies of all financial statements delivered by Borrower or Guarantor to Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to each Lender all material information regarding the Property, Borrower and any other holder of any of the ownership interests of Borrower furnished to or obtained by Administrative Agent with respect to the Loan. Administrative Agent shall promptly provide each Lender with copies of all requests and notices received from Borrower by Administrative Agent and all appraisals ordered by Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders.
Section 14.16 Pfandbriefe. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each Lender shall be permitted to assign or otherwise transfer its interest in the Loan and the Loan Documents to a trustee, administrator or receiver (or their respective nominees, collateral agents or security trustees) of a pool securing covered mortgage bonds (Pfandbriefe) issued by a German Pfandbriefebank under German Pfandbriefe legislation in connection with a Pfandbriefe Offering.
Section 14.17 Restrictions on Transfers by Borrower. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement that may permit Transfers of any nature without consent of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, any Transfer of a direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower, Borrower’s direct or indirect members, Borrower’s manager or any Guarantor shall be subject to the requirement that, after giving effect to such Transfer, such person and each Lender shall be in compliance with all Transfer Restriction Regulations. A “Transfer Restriction Regulation” shall mean any law or regulation of any Governmental Authority, including the USA Patriot Act and regulations issued pursuant thereto and “know your customer” laws, rules, regulations and orders, or any interpretation, directive or request under any such law or regulation by any court or Governmental Authority or monetary authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any internal Lender policy resulting therefrom, or any internal Lender policy limiting the amount of loans which may be extended to any one customer of the Lender. If any Lender determines that a proposed transfer that does not require the Lender’s consent under this Agreement would cause the Lender to be in violation of a Transfer Restriction Regulation (any such Lender being herein called a “Restricted Lender”), such Lender shall notify Borrower. Borrower may not cause or permit the Transfer unless Borrower shall first either (i) prepay such Restricted Lender’s outstanding Loans or (ii) arrange for the transfer by such Restricted Lender of all of its right, title and interest under this Agreement and such Restricted Lender’s Note to an Eligible Assignee selected by Borrower that is reasonably satisfactory to Agent, such Eligible Assignee assumes all of the obligations of such Restricted Lender hereunder, and purchases all of such Restricted Lender’s interests hereunder for consideration equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Restricted Lender’s Loans, together with interest thereon to the date of such purchase (to the extent not paid by Borrower) and all other amounts accrued and payable hereunder to such Restricted Lender as of the date of such transfer

To the maximum extent permitted by law, all sums, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, so expended or expended to sustain the lien or estate of this Mortgage or its priority, or to protect or enforce any of the rights hereunder, or to recover any of the Obligations, shall be a lien on the Mortgaged Property, and shall, subject to the provisions of Section 1.02 hereof, be deemed to be added to the Obligations secured hereby, and shall be paid by Mortgagor within 10 days after demand therefor, together with interest thereon at the Post-Default Rate.

ARTICLE 3
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
Section 3.01 Assignment of Rents, Issues and Profits.
(a) Mortgagor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns to Mortgagee, as part of the consideration for the transactions contemplated by this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, the Rents and Leases and other documents or instruments evidencing the Rents now or hereafter in effect and any and all deposits or letters of credit held as security under the Leases, it being intended by Mortgagor and Mortgagee that such assignment constitutes an absolute and
-9-
present assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Nothing contained in the foregoing sentence shall be construed to bind Mortgagee to the performance of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions contained in any such Lease or other document or otherwise to impose any obligation on Mortgagee (including any liability under the covenant of quiet enjoyment contained in any Lease), except that Mortgagee shall be accountable for any money or security actually received pursuant to such assignment. Such assignment and grant shall continue in effect until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, the execution of this Mortgage constituting and evidencing the irrevocable consent of Mortgagor to the entry upon and taking possession of the Mortgaged Property by Mortgagee and the exercise by Mortgagee of the rights and powers granted pursuant hereto, including, without limitation, those set forth in clauses (i) through (vii) below, regardless of whether foreclosure has been instituted and without applying for a receiver. Such assignment shall include, without limitation:
|
|
|
(i) the immediate and continuing right to receive and collect all amounts payable by all Tenants, including without limitation (A) all Rents,(B) all damages or other amounts payable in the event of any expiration or termination of any Lease pursuant to the terms thereof, by operation of law or otherwise, (C) any indemnification against, or reimbursement for, sums paid and costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagor under any Lease or otherwise, (D) any award in the event of the bankruptcy of any Tenant or guarantor of a Lease, and (E) all security deposits, other security instruments, other deposits or prepayments with respect to any such Leases; |
|
|
|
(ii) all claims, rights, powers, privileges and remedies of Mortgagor, whether provided for in any Lease or arising by statute or at law or in equity or otherwise, consequent on any failure on the part of any Tenant to perform or comply with any term of any Lease; |
|
|
|
(iii) all right to take all action upon the happening of a default under any Lease as shall be permitted by any Lease or by law, including, without limitation, the commencement, conduct and consummation of proceedings at law or in equity; |
|
|
|
(iv) the full power and authority, in the name of Mortgagor, or otherwise, to enforce, collect, receive and make receipt for any and all of the foregoing and to do any and all other acts and things whatsoever which Mortgagor, or any landlord is or may be entitled to do under any Lease; |
|
|
|
(v) the full power and authority, in the name of Mortgagor, or otherwise, to enforce any Lease; |
|
|
|
(vi) the full power and authority, in the name of Mortgagor, or otherwise, to lease the Mortgaged Property; and |
|
|
|
(vii) the right to apply the Rents to the payment of the Obligations in accordance with the Loan Agreement. |
(b) During the term hereof, all rights, powers and privileges of Mortgagee herein set forth are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and Mortgagor will not take any action under any Lease or otherwise which is inconsistent with this
-10-
Mortgage or any of the terms hereof or thereof and any such action inconsistent herewith or therewith shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be void. Any further assignment of any rents, issues, or profits from the Mortgaged Property shall to the fullest extent permitted by law be void. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagor hereby waives any requirement that Mortgagee commence any foreclosure proceeding with respect to any or all of the Mortgaged Property prior to enforcement of any remedies pursuant to this Article 3, including the right to commence and prosecute an action to appoint a receiver for rents and all other amounts due under any Leases. Mortgagor will, from time to time, upon request of Mortgagee, execute all instruments and further assurances and all supplemental instruments and take all such action as Mortgagee from time to time may reasonably request in order to perfect, preserve and protect the interests intended to be assigned to Mortgagee hereby.
(c) Mortgagor hereby agrees that it will not, unilaterally or by agreement, (i) subordinate, amend, modify, extend, discharge, terminate, surrender, waive or otherwise change any term of any Lease in any manner which would violate this Mortgage, the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents or (ii) except for security deposits, accept a prepayment of Rent in excess of Rent for one month. If any Lease shall be amended as permitted hereby, such Lease shall continue to be subject to the provisions hereof without the necessity of any further act by any of the parties hereto, subject to the provisions of any non-disturbance agreement which Mortgagee may have granted in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage.
Section 3.02 Grant of License; Revocation.
Until the occurrence of an Event of Default, Mortgagee waives its rights under Section 3.01 above, and grants Mortgagor a license to collect the Rents and enforce any rights, remedies, entitlements, benefits and/or powers assigned hereunder or granted to Mortgagee, including, without limitation, those enumerated in clauses (i) through (vii) of Section 3.01(a). Such license to collect, receive and retain the Rents and enforce such rights, remedies, entitlements, benefits and/or powers shall be automatically revoked and the rights of Mortgagor thereunder shall automatically cease and terminate upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Mortgage. In such event, (i) Mortgagor hereby authorizes Mortgagee to receive and collect the Rents due under the terms of each Lease and to direct any Tenant, by written notice from Mortgagee or otherwise, to forward such Rents by mail or in person to Mortgagee and (ii) Mortgagor shall immediately pay to Mortgagee any Rents held by or under the control of Mortgagor. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Mortgagee as Mortgagor’s lawful attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution, for the purpose of taking any of the actions described in the immediately preceding sentence and all acts incidental thereto. Following the revocation of the license herein granted, Mortgagee may retain and apply the Rents toward payment of the Obligations in such order, priority and proportions as Mortgagee, in its discretion, shall deem proper, or to the operation, maintenance and repair of the Mortgaged Property, and irrespective of whether Mortgagee shall have commenced a foreclosure of this Mortgage or shall have applied or arranged for the appointment of a receiver with respect thereto.
-11-
Section 3.03 Direction to Tenants.
Mortgagor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs each Tenant of the Mortgaged Property, upon receipt of notice from Mortgagee of an Event of Default, to pay all Rents due or to become due under its Lease directly to Mortgagee or to any appointed receiver of the Mortgaged Property. Each such Tenant shall have the right to rely upon any such notice of Mortgagee directing the payment of all Rents to Mortgagee, without any obligation to inquire as to the actual existence of the Event of Default, notwithstanding any claim of Mortgagor to the contrary and Mortgagor shall have no rights or claims against any Tenant for any Rents so paid to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall facilitate, in all reasonable ways, the collection of the Rents by Mortgagee and will, upon request by Mortgagee, execute a written notice to each Tenant directing the Tenant to pay the Rents payable under such Tenant’s respective Lease to Mortgagee. Each Tenant is hereby expressly authorized and directed, upon demand by Mortgagee and without the necessity of any further consent by, or notice from, Mortgagor, to attorn to Mortgagee as the owner of the Leases and to pay any and all Rents due to Mortgagor pursuant to such Tenant’s Lease directly to Mortgagee or to any appointed receiver, and to observe and perform such Tenant’s obligations under the Tenant’s Lease to or for Mortgagee and to accept performance of the landlord’s obligations under the Lease from Mortgagee. Each Tenant is hereby expressly relieved of any and all duty, liability or obligation to Mortgagor in respect of all payments so made. The payment of Rents to Mortgagee pursuant to Mortgagee’s demand and the performance of obligations under any Lease to or for the benefit of Mortgagee shall not cause Mortgagee to assume or be bound by any of the provisions of any such Lease and shall not relieve Mortgagor of its obligations thereunder.
Section 3.04 Section 291-f Agreement.
(a) This Mortgage is intended to be, and shall operate as, the agreement described in Section 291-f of the Real Property Law of the State of New York and shall be entitled to the benefits afforded thereby.
(b) Mortgagor shall (unless such notice is contained in such Tenant’s Lease) deliver notice of this Mortgage, which notice shall be to all present and future holders of any interest in any Lease, by assignment or otherwise, and shall take such other action as may now or hereafter be reasonably required to afford Mortgagee the full protections and benefits of such Section 291-f; and
(c) Mortgagor shall request the recipient of any such notice to acknowledge the receipt thereof.

SECURITY AGREEMENT; FIXTURE FILING
Section 4.01 Creation of Security Interest.
This Mortgage constitutes both a real property mortgage and a “security agreement”, within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code. The Mortgaged Property includes both real and personal property and all other rights and interest, whether tangible or intangible in nature, of Mortgagor in the Mortgaged Property whether now or hereafter existing.
-12-
Mortgagor by executing and delivering this Mortgage has granted and hereby grants to Mortgagee, as security for the Obligations, a security interest in (a) the Mortgaged Property, and (b) the personal property identified on Exhibit B attached hereto whether now or hereafter existing, in each case to the fullest extent that the same may be subject to the Uniform Commercial Code (all of such personal property so subject to the Uniform Commercial Code, the “Personal Property Collateral”). If an Event of Default shall exist, (i) Mortgagee, in addition to any other rights and remedies that it may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code, including the right to take possession of the Personal Property Collateral, or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Mortgagee may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Personal Property Collateral and (ii) upon request or demand of Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall, at Mortgagor’s sole expense, assemble the Personal Property Collateral and make it available to Mortgagee at a convenient place acceptable to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements, incurred or paid by Mortgagee in protecting its interest in the Personal Property Collateral and in enforcing its rights hereunder with respect to the Personal Property Collateral. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Mortgagee with respect to the Personal Property Collateral sent to Mortgagor in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage at least five (5) Business Days prior to such sale, disposition or other action, shall constitute reasonable notice to Mortgagor, and the method of sale or disposition or other intended action set forth or specified in such notice shall conclusively be deemed to be commercially reasonable within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code unless objected to by Mortgagor within three (3) Business Days after such notice. The proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Personal Property Collateral, or any part thereof, may be applied by Mortgagee to the payment of the Obligations in such priority and proportions as Mortgagee in its discretion shall deem proper.
Section 4.02 Continuation Statements; Amendments.
Mortgagor hereby authorizes Mortgagee to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Personal Property Collateral without the signature of Mortgagor where permitted by applicable law.
Section 4.03 Fixture Filing.
This Mortgage shall also constitute a “fixture filing” filed as a fixture filing in the Official Records of the County Recorder of the county in which the Mortgaged Property is located for the purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code against all of the Mortgaged Property which is or is to become fixtures. Information concerning the security interest herein granted may be obtained at the address of Debtor (Mortgagor).

(e) Mortgagee may institute an action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained herein or in the Notes, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or in aid of the execution of any power granted hereunder or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy.
(f) Mortgagee may recover judgment on the Notes, either before, during or after any proceedings for the foreclosure (or partial foreclosure) or enforcement of this Mortgage.
(g) Mortgagee may, as a matter of right, secure the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or similar official of the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof, and Mortgagor hereby consents and agrees to such appointment, without notice to Mortgagor and without regard to the adequacy of the security for the Obligations and without regard to the solvency of Mortgagor or any other Person liable for the payment of the Obligations, and such receiver or other official shall have all rights and powers permitted by applicable law and such other rights and powers as the court making such appointment may confer, but the appointment of such receiver or other official shall not impair or in any manner prejudice the rights of Mortgagee to receive the Rents with respect to the Mortgaged Property pursuant to this Mortgage.
(h) In addition to the rights which Mortgagee may have herein, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Mortgagee, at its option, may require Mortgagor to pay monthly in advance to Mortgagee, or any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of any portion of the Mortgaged Property occupied by Mortgagor and may require Mortgagor to vacate and surrender possession to Mortgagee of the Mortgaged Property or to such receiver and, Mortgagor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise.
(i) Mortgagee shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Mortgaged Property and the Personal Property Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not said Uniform Commercial Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the applicable laws, including, without limitation, the right, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other power of ownership pertaining to the Mortgaged Property or the Personal Property Collateral as if Mortgagee were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and Mortgagor agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right).
-15-
(j) Mortgagee or the Lenders may pursue against Mortgagor, any other rights and remedies of Mortgagee permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the Loan Agreement, the Hedge Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
(k) Reference is made to Section 1401(1) of the New York Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law. Mortgagor agrees that, during the existence of any Event of Default hereunder or the Notes secured hereby, Mortgagee shall have the right to sell the Land and without limitation, that this Mortgage may be foreclosed in the manner prescribed in Article 14 of the New York Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law for a non-judicial proceeding for foreclosure by power of sale in accordance with the requirements of such Article 14 or any provision of New York law which may hereafter be enacted permitting foreclosure by sale, power of sale or similar procedure.
Section 5.03 Application of Proceeds.
The proceeds of any sale made either under the power of sale hereby given or under a judgment, order or decree made in any action to foreclose or to enforce this Mortgage, or of any monies held by Mortgagee hereunder shall be applied in the following order:
(a) First, to payment of the costs and expenses of taking possession of the Mortgaged Property, and of the costs and expenses of the sale, including but not limited to Mortgagee’s fees, legal fees and disbursements, title charges and transfer taxes, and payment of all expenses, liabilities and advances of Mortgagee;
(b) Second, payment of all sums expended by Mortgagee under the terms of this Mortgage and not yet repaid, together with interest on such sums at the Post-Default Rate;
(c) Third, to payment of the secured indebtedness and all other Obligations secured by this Mortgage, including, without limitation, interest at the Post-Default Rate provided for under the Loan Documents, and any charge expressly required to be paid under the Notes in order to prepay principal, in any order that Mortgagee chooses in its sole discretion; and
(d) Finally, the remainder, if any, of such funds shall be disbursed to Mortgagor or to any other Person or Persons legally entitled thereto.
Section 5.04 Right to Xxx.
Mortgagee shall have the right from time to time to xxx for any sums required to be paid by Mortgagor under the terms of this Mortgage as the same become due, without regard to whether or not the Obligations shall be, or have become, due and without prejudice to the right of Mortgagee thereafter to bring any action or proceeding of foreclosure or any other action upon the occurrence of any Event of Default existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
Section 5.05 Powers of Mortgagee.
Mortgagee may at any time or from time to time renew or extend this Mortgage or (with the agreement of Mortgagor) alter or modify the same in any way, or waive any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof or thereof, in whole or in part, and may release any portion of the
-16-
Mortgaged Property or any other security, and grant such extensions and indulgences in relation to the Obligations, or release any Person liable therefor as Mortgagee may determine without the consent of any junior lienor or encumbrancer, without in any manner affecting the priority of the Lien and estate of this Mortgage on or in any part of the Mortgaged Property, and without affecting the liability of any other Person liable for any of the Obligations.
Section 5.06 Remedies Cumulative.
(a) No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Mortgagee is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or under applicable law, whether now or hereafter existing; the failure of Mortgagee to insist at any time upon the strict observance or performance of any of the provisions of this Mortgage or to exercise any right or remedy provided for herein or under applicable law, shall not impair any such right or remedy nor be construed as a waiver or relinquishment thereof.
(b) Mortgagee shall be entitled to enforce payment and performance of any of the Obligations and to exercise all rights and powers under this Mortgage or under any Loan Document or any laws now or hereafter in force, notwithstanding that some or all of the Obligations may now or hereafter be otherwise secured, whether by mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, lien, assignment or otherwise; neither the acceptance of this Mortgage nor its enforcement, whether by court action or pursuant to the power of sale or other powers herein contained, shall prejudice or in any manner affect Mortgagee’s right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or hereafter held by Mortgagee, it being stipulated that Mortgagee shall be entitled to enforce this Mortgage, any of the Security Documents and any other security now or hereafter held by Mortgagee in such order and manner as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may determine; every power or remedy given by the Loan Agreement, this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents to Mortgagee, or to which Mortgagee is otherwise entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Mortgagee, and Mortgagee may pursue inconsistent remedies.
Section 5.07 General Provisions.
(a) Effect of Judgment. No recovery of any judgment by Mortgagee and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon any other property of Mortgagor shall adversely affect in any manner or to any extent the Lien of this Mortgage upon the Mortgaged Property, or any rights, powers or remedies of Mortgagee hereunder. Such Lien, rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee shall continue unimpaired as before.
(b) Continuing Power of Sale. The power of sale conferred upon Mortgagee in this Mortgage shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales as to any portion of the Mortgaged Property or the Personal Property Collateral remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired, to the fullest extent permitted by law, until all of the Obligations are paid in full.
(c) Right to Purchase. At any sale of the Mortgaged Property or the Personal Property Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall have the right to purchase the Mortgaged Property (or such portion thereof) being sold, and
-17-
in such case shall have the right to credit against the amount of the bid made therefor (to the extent necessary) all or any portion of the Obligations.
(d) Adjournment of Sale. Mortgagee may postpone or adjourn from time to time any sale of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property by it to be made hereunder or by virtue hereof by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or such adjourned sale or sales; and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable provision of law, Mortgagee, without further notice or publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so postponed or adjourned, as the case may be.
(e) Right to Terminate Proceedings. Mortgagee may terminate or rescind any proceeding or other action brought in connection with its exercise of the remedies provided in this Article 5 at any time before the conclusion thereof, as determined in Mortgagee’s sole discretion and without prejudice to Mortgagee.
(f) No Waiver or Release. Mortgagee may resort to any remedies and the security given by the Loan Documents, in whole or in part, and in such portions and in such order as determined in Mortgagee’s sole discretion. No such action shall in any way be considered a waiver of any rights, benefits or remedies evidenced or provided by the Loan Documents. The failure of Mortgagee to exercise any right, remedy or option provided in the Loan Documents shall not be deemed a waiver of such right, remedy or option or of any covenant or obligation secured by the Loan Documents. No acceptance by Mortgagee of any payment after the occurrence of an Event of Default and no payment by Mortgagee of any obligation for which Mortgagor is liable hereunder shall be deemed to waive or cure any Event of Default with respect to Mortgagor, or Mortgagor’s liability to pay such obligation. No sale of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, no forbearance on the part of Mortgagee, and no extension of time for the payment of the whole or any portion of the Obligations or any other indulgence given by Mortgagee to Mortgagor or any other Person, shall operate to release or in any manner affect the interest of Mortgagee in any remaining portion of the Mortgaged Property or the liability of Mortgagor to pay and perform the Obligations, except to the extent that such liability shall be reduced by net proceeds actually received by Mortgagee with respect to any portion of the Mortgaged Property. No waiver by Mortgagee shall be effective unless it is in writing and then only to the extent specifically stated.
(g) No Impairment; No Release. The interests and rights of Mortgagee under the Loan Documents shall not be impaired by any indulgence, including (i) any renewal, extension or modification which Mortgagee may grant with respect to any of the Obligations; (ii) any surrender, compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange or substitution which Mortgagee may grant with respect to the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof; or (iii) any waiver, release or indulgence granted to any maker, endorser, guarantor or surety of any of the Obligations.
(h) Waivers and Agreements Regarding Remedies. To the fullest extent Mortgagor may legally do so, Mortgagor, for itself and for all persons hereunder claiming through or under it or who may at any time acquire a lien on all or any part of the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein:
-18-
|
|
|
(i) agrees that Mortgagor will not at any time insist upon, plead, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any laws now or hereafter in force providing for any appraisal or appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption, and waives and releases all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisal or appraisement, stay of execution, extension and notice of election to accelerate or declare due the whole or any portion of the Obligations; |
|
|
|
(ii) waives all rights to a marshaling of the assets of Mortgagor and others with interests in Mortgagor, and of the Mortgaged Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of the interests hereby created, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshaling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Mortgagee under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Mortgaged Property for the collection of the Obligations without any prior or different resort for collection, or the right of Mortgagee to the payment of the Obligations out of the net proceeds from the Mortgaged Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever; |
|
|
|
(iii) waives any right to bring or utilize any defense, counterclaim or setoff; provided, however, that if such counterclaim or setoff is based on a claim which could be tried in an action for money damages, the foregoing waiver shall not bar a separate action for such damage (unless such claim is required by law or applicable rules of procedure to be pleaded in or consolidated with the action initiated by Mortgagee), but such separate action shall not thereafter be consolidated with any foreclosure action of Mortgagee; and provided further that the bringing of such separate action for money damages shall not be deemed to afford any grounds for staying any such foreclosure action; |
|
|
|
(iv) waives and relinquishes any and all rights and remedies which Mortgagor may have or be able to assert by reason of the provisions of any laws pertaining to the rights and remedies of sureties; and |
|
|
|
(v) waives any right which it may have to require the Mortgaged Property (or any part thereof) to be sold as one or more units. |
(i) Subrogation. If all or any portion of the proceeds of the Notes or any disbursement shall be used directly or indirectly to pay off, discharge or satisfy, in whole or in part, any prior Lien upon the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof, then Mortgagee shall be subrogated to, and shall have the benefit of the priority of, such other Lien and any additional security held by the holder thereof.
Section 5.08 No Mortgagee-in-Possession.
None of the enforcement of any of the remedies under this Article 5, the assignment of the Leases and Rents under Article 3, the security interests under Article 4, nor any other remedies afforded to Mortgagee and/or the Lenders under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity shall cause Mortgagee or any Lender to be deemed or construed to be a mortgagee in
-19-
possession of the Mortgaged Property, to obligate Mortgagee or any Lender to lease the Mortgaged Property or attempt to do so, or to take any action, incur any expense, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the Leases or otherwise.

Section 6.02 Notices.
All notices, demands, consents, requests or other communications that are permitted or required to be given by any party to the other hereunder shall be in writing and given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement.
Section 6.03 No Waiver.
Any failure by Mortgagee to insist upon strict performance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents shall not be deemed to be a waiver of same, and Mortgagee shall have the right at any time to insist upon strict performance of all of such terms, provisions and conditions.
Section 6.04 Amendments; etc.
This Mortgage cannot be modified, changed or discharged except by an agreement in writing, duly acknowledged in form for recording, signed by Mortgagor and Mortgagee and, to the extent provided in the Loan Agreement, the consent of the Lenders. For purposes hereof, a statement by the Mortgagee in any modification or supplement to this Mortgage to the effect that such modification or supplement has been consented to by the Lenders as provided in the Loan Agreement shall be conclusive evidence of such consent and it shall not be necessary for a copy of such consent to be recorded with such modification or supplement as a condition to such modification or supplement being recorded in the appropriate real estate records.
Section 6.05 Successors and Assigns.
This Mortgage applies to, inures to the benefit of and binds Mortgagor and Mortgagee and their respective successors and assigns, as permitted under the Loan Agreement, and shall run with the Premises.
-20-
Section 6.06 Captions.
The captions or headings at the beginning of each Article and Section hereof are for the convenience of reference and are not a part of this Mortgage.
Section 6.07 Severability.
If any term or provision of this Mortgage or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Mortgage, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Mortgage shall be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. If any portion of the Obligations shall for any reason not be secured by a valid and enforceable lien upon any part of the Mortgaged Property, then any payments made in respect of the Obligations (whether voluntary or under foreclosure or other enforcement action or procedure or otherwise) shall, for purposes of this Mortgage (except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law) be deemed to be made (i) first, in respect of the portion of the Obligations not secured by the lien of this Mortgage, (ii) second, in respect of the portion of the Obligations secured by the lien of this Mortgage, but which lien is on less than all of the Mortgaged Property, and (iii) last, to the portion of the Obligations secured by the lien of this Mortgage, and which lien is on all of the Mortgaged Property.
Section 6.08 Usury Savings Clause.
It is the intention of Mortgagor, Mortgagee and the Lenders to conform strictly to the usury and similar laws relating to interest payable on loans from time to time in force, and all agreements between Mortgagor, Mortgagee and the Lenders, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of maturity hereof otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid in the aggregate to the Lenders as interest (whether or not designated as interest, and including any amount otherwise designated by deemed constitute interest by a court of competent jurisdiction) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or in any other agreement given to secure the Obligations, or in any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the Obligations, exceed the maximum amount (the “Maximum Rate”) permissible under applicable laws. If under any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof, of the Loan Agreement or of the other Loan Documents, at the time performance of such provisions shall be due, shall involve exceeding the Maximum Rate, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the Maximum Rate. For purposes of calculating the actual amount of interest paid and/or payable hereunder in respect of laws pertaining to usury or such other laws, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders for the use, forbearance or detention of the Obligations evidenced hereby, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Notes until payment in full of all of such indebtedness, so that the actual rate of interest on account of such Obligations is uniform through the term hereof. If under any circumstances any Lender shall ever receive an amount which would exceed the Maximum Rate, such amount shall be deemed a payment in reduction of the principal amount of the Loans and shall be treated as a voluntary prepayment under the Loan Agreement and shall be so applied in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Agreement or if such excessive interest exceeds the Outstanding amount of the Loans and
-21-
any other Obligations, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to Mortgagor.
Section 6.09 CERTAIN WAIVERS.
MORTGAGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY FORECLOSURE OR OTHER ACTION BROUGHT BY MORTGAGEE TO ENFORCE ITS RIGHTS AND REMEDIES UNDER THIS MORTGAGE, ANY AND EVERY RIGHT MORTGAGOR MAY HAVE TO (A) INTERPOSE ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN, OTHER THAN A COMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM, AND (B) HAVE THE SAME CONSOLIDATED WITH ANY OTHER OR SEPARATE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. NOTHING CONTAINED IN THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SENTENCE SHALL PREVENT OR PROHIBIT THE BORROWER FROM INSTITUTING OR MAINTAINING A SEPARATE ACTION AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE LENDERS WITH RESPECT TO ANY ASSERTED CLAIM.
