2. | LOAN PROVISIONS. |
2.1 General Loan Provisions.
2.1.1 Loans.
(a) Subject to all of the terms and conditions hereof, the Lenders hereby agree to make up to an aggregate of three (3) Loan Advances (with simultaneous Loan Advances under the Tranche A Term Facility and Tranche B Term Facility constituting one (1) Loan Advance) to the Borrower under the Tranche A Term Facility and Tranche B Term Facility between the date hereof and July 1, 2014 (the “Outside Funding Date”); provided, that the (i) Total Outstandings shall at no time exceed the lesser of (A) the Total Commitment or (B) the Borrowing Base Value; (the lesser of (A) or (B) being the “Maximum Loan Amount”), (ii) the Total Tranche A Term Outstandings shall not exceed the Total Tranche A Term Commitments, and (iii) the Total Tranche B Term
30
Outstandings shall not exceed the Total Tranche B Term Commitments. The Tranche A Term Facility and the Tranche B Term Facility may not be reborrowed under any circumstances, and, subject to the provisions of Section 2.1.1(d) below, no Loan Advances shall be made after July 1, 2014.
(b) Subject to Section 2.1.1(a) above, amounts advanced hereunder shall be allocated to the Tranche A Term Facility and Tranche B Term Facility in such fashion as the Borrower may request.
(c) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and independent and not joint. No Lender shall become obligated to advance more than its Commitment Percentage of a respective Tranche A Loan and/or Tranche B Loan including, without limitation, as a result of the failure of any Lender to fulfill its obligations hereunder.
(d) Provided no Default or Event of Default shall then be in existence, the Borrower shall have the right, on one or more occasions prior to February 11, 2017, to elect to increase the either the Total Tranche A Term Commitments and/or the Total Tranche B Term Commitments; provided, however, that (i) the amount of each such increase shall not be less than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) or in increments of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00 ) in excess thereof, and (ii) the aggregate amount of all such increases shall not cause the Total Commitment to exceed Three Hundred Million Dollars ($300,000,000). Any such increase in the Total Commitment shall be allocated to the Tranche A Term Facility and/or the Tranche B Term Facility in such amounts as the Borrower may request. Such right may be exercised by the Borrower by written notice to the Administrative Agent, which election shall designate the requested increase in the Total Commitment and to which of the Tranche A Term Facility and/or the Tranche B Term Facility such request is being made. At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders), and each Lender shall endeavor to respond as promptly as possible within such time period. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment (which decision shall be in its sole discretion) and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Commitment Percentage of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement (each a “Joinder Agreement”) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel. If the Total Commitment is increased in accordance with this Section, the
31
Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of each Lender’s increased Commitments among the Tranche A Term Facility and the Tranche B Term Facility, and if such increase is not pro rata among the Tranche A Term Facility and the Tranche B Term Facility, the new or increased Commitments issued in connection with such increase, and the existing Tranche A Term Commitments and Tranche B Term Commitments of the Lenders, shall be adjusted (but any existing Commitment of a Lender will not be increased unless such Lender has elected to increase its Commitment) so as to at all times provide that each Lender shall have a pro rata Commitment in each of the Tranche A Term Facility and the Tranche B Term Facility. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase (with such increase being pro rata among existing Lenders choosing to increase their Commitments) and the Increase Effective Date. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article 6 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.1.1(d), the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.8 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished to the Administrative Agent, and except as to the representations and warranties in Sections 6.4, 6.7, 6.9, and 6.14 which may be modified only to reflect events occurring after the date hereof as specifically disclosed in writing to Administrative Agent prior to or simultaneously with such written request and (B) no Default or Event of Default exists. The amount of any applicable increase in the Tranche A Term Facility and/or the Tranche B Term Facility shall be funded on such Increase Effective Date. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Sections 12.2 or 13.4.1 to the contrary.
2.1.2 Procedures and Limits. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1.1(a) and Section 2.1.1(d), the Lenders shall, subject to the compliance with all of the other terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement and the absence of any Default or Event of Default at the time of such disbursement, make disbursements to the Borrower of Loan Advances in installments in accordance with the following:
(a) Written Requests. Loan Advances shall be made, at the Borrower’s written request to Administrative Agent, on the basis of written requests, made in accordance with the method and procedures described in Section 2.1.3 below; and Administrative Agent shall act upon such requests within three (3) Business Days following the receipt of a written request from Borrower for a LIBOR Rate Advance and within one (1) Business Day following the receipt of a written request from Borrower for a Base Rate Advance, which
32
action may include, without limitation, funding the requested Loan Advance or specifying the basis for not funding and, when applicable, requesting additional information and supporting documentation. The date on which any Loan Advance is funded is herein called an “Advance Date.”
(b) Requisitions, Certifications. Each request for a Loan Advance shall be in writing and in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “Loan Notice”). Each such request shall specify (i) the amount of the Loan Advance requested, (ii) the purpose of the Loan Advance requested, (iii) the Total Outstandings (including the funding of the Loan Advance being requested), (iv) calculations evidencing the Borrower’s continued compliance with the Financial Covenants, as satisfied by the Closing Compliance Certificate, or once delivered, the most recent Compliance Certificate delivered by the Borrower, (v) the requested interest rate option, and (vi) the Interest Period (if applicable). Each request for a Loan Advance hereunder shall be for (a) a minimum amount as required by Section 2.3.6, (b) an amount not to exceed (x) the Maximum Loan Amount less (y) the Total Outstandings (after giving effect to such Loan Advance), (c) as to the Tranche A Term Facility, an amount not to exceed (x) the Total Tranche A Term Commitments, less (y) the total Tranche A Term Facility Loans previously advanced under the Tranche A Term Facility (after giving effect to any such pending advance of Tranche A Term Facility Loans), and (d) as to the Tranche B Term Facility, an amount not to exceed (x) the Total Tranche B Term Commitments, less (y) the total Tranche B Term Facility Loans previously advanced under the Tranche B Term Facility (after giving effect to any such pending advance of Tranche B Term Facility Loans).
2.1.3 Funding Procedures. Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Advance Date and of the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the applicable Loans. In the case of a Loan Advance, each Lender shall make the amount of its Commitment Percentage of such Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified as the Advance Date in the applicable Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.2 (and, if such Loan Advance is the initial credit extension, Section 5.1), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of KeyBank with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower.
2.2 Term of Loan.
2.2.1 Tranche A Term Facility. The Tranche A Term Facility shall be for a term (the “Tranche A Term Facility Term”) commencing on the date hereof and ending on February 11, 2019 (the “Tranche A Term Facility Maturity Date”) or such earlier date as the Tranche A Term Facility is accelerated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement upon an Event of Default.

The Borrower shall have the right to terminate this Agreement prior to the originally scheduled Maturity Date by providing the Administrative Agent with ten (10) days’ written notice of the Borrower’s intention to terminate this Agreement (the date of such termination being the “Borrower Termination Date”). In the event that the Borrower provides such written notice to the Administrative Agent, (i) as of the date of the notice, the Lenders shall have no further obligation to make or issue, and the Borrower shall have no further right to receive or request, any Credit Extension hereunder, and (ii) the Borrower shall be obligated on the Borrower Termination Date to pay in full all accrued interest, principal and other charges due with respect to the Loan, including, without limitation, any Breakage Fees or Prepayment Premiums due on account of such payment.

This Agreement also provides for interest at a Default Rate, Late Charges and prepayment rights and fees. All payments for the account of Lenders shall be applied to the respective accounts of the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Loan. Any and all interest rate selection and conversion provisions in this Agreement are to be administered by the Administrative Agent and to be allocated on a pro rata basis to the portion of the balance held by each Lender based upon such Lender’s Commitment Percentage.
2.3.1 Borrower’s Options. Principal amounts outstanding under the Loan shall bear interest at the following rates, at Borrower’s selection, subject to the conditions and limitations provided for in this Agreement: (i) the Base Rate Accrual Rate or (ii) LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin. Borrower’s right to select pricing options shall cease upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default.
2.3.2 Selection To Be Made. Borrower shall select, and thereafter may change the selection of, the applicable interest rate, from the alternatives otherwise provided for in this Agreement, by giving Administrative Agent a Loan Notice (in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.3.3, below): (i) three (3) Business Days prior to each Loan Advance, (ii) three (3) Business Days prior to the end of each Interest Period applicable to a LIBO Rate Advance which shall be continued as a LIBO Rate Advance, or (iii) three (3) Business Days prior to any Business Day on which Borrower desires to convert an outstanding Base Rate Advance to a LIBO Rate Advance.
2.3.3 Notice. Each Loan Advance, each conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of a LIBO Rate Advance shall be made upon the Authorized Officer’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later
34
than 11:00 a.m. (i) with respect to a LIBO Rate Advance, three (3) Business Days prior to, or (ii) with respect to a Base Rate Advance, the requested date of any Loan Advance, conversion or continuation. Each telephonic notice pursuant to this Section 2.3.3 must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower.
2.3.4 If No Notice. If (a) the Borrower fails to select an interest rate option in accordance with the foregoing prior to a Loan Advance, or at least three (3) Business Days prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period of an outstanding LIBO Rate Advance, or (b) a LIBO Rate Advance is not available, then any new Loan Advance made shall be deemed to be a Base Rate Advance, and on the last day of the applicable Interest Period all outstanding principal amounts of the applicable LIBO Rate Advance shall be deemed converted to a Base Rate Advance.
2.3.5 Telephonic Notice. Without any way limiting the Borrower’s obligation to confirm in writing any telephonic notice, the Administrative Agent may act without liability upon the basis of telephonic notice believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from the Borrower prior to receipt of written confirmation. In each case the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic Loan Notice in the absence of manifest error.
2.3.6 Limits On Options. Each LIBO Rate Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and each Base Rate Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.

All interest for each Payment Period shall be payable in arrears commencing March 3, 2014 and on the first Business Day of each month thereafter until the principal together with all interest and other charges payable with respect to the Loan shall be fully paid. All computations of interest for Base Rate Advances shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.3.11, bear interest for one day. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding, under any Debtor Relief Law.
2.3.8 Mandatory Principal Payments.
If, on any day, the Total Outstandings exceed the Maximum Loan Amount, then the Borrower shall make a principal payment on Unsecured Debt of CRT and its Subsidiaries, in the amount of such excess, in immediately available funds within ten (10)
35
Business Days of demand from the Administrative Agent (a “Mandatory Principal Payment”); to the extent any such payment is made by the Borrower for application to the Total Outstandings such prepayment shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the Tranche A Term Facility and the Tranche B Term Facility; provided, however, that if during such ten (10) Business Day period, the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent Funding Evidence, such ten (10) Business Day period shall be extended for such additional time as the Administrative Agent determines, in its reasonable discretion, to be required by the Borrower to make the Mandatory Principal Payment but in no event shall such period exceed a maximum of sixty (60) days from the date that the Mandatory Principal Payment would otherwise be due hereunder.
2.3.9 Prepayment. Any Loan or any portion thereof made under the Tranche A Term Facility may be prepaid in full or in part at any time upon two (2) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent without premium or penalty with respect to Base Rate Advances and, with respect to LIBO Rate Advances, subject to payment of any applicable Breakage Fee. Any Loan or any portion thereof made under the Tranche B Term Facility may be prepaid in full or in part at any time upon two (2) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent subject to the payment of (a) with respect to Base Rate Advances, any applicable Prepayment Premium and, (b) with respect to LIBO Rate Advances, any applicable Prepayment Premium and any applicable Breakage Fee. Amounts prepaid under the Tranche A Term Facility and Tranche B Term Facility may not be reborrowed under any circumstances.
2.3.10 Maturity. At either of the Tranche A Term Facility Maturity or the Tranche B Term Facility Maturity, as applicable, all accrued interest, principal and other charges due with respect to the respective facility shall be due and payable in full and the principal balance and such other charges, including unpaid interest, shall, at the option of the Administrative Agent, continue to bear interest thereafter at the Default Rate until so paid.
2.3.11 Method of Payment; Date of Credit; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.
(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Commitment Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
36
(b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any LIBO Rate Advance (or, in the case of any Base Rate Advance, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Loan Advance) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Loan Advance, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.1 (or, in the case of a Base Rate Advance, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.1) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Loan Advance available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Advances. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Loan Advance to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Loan Advance and the Borrower shall have no further obligation with respect thereto under this Section 2.3.11(b)(i) in respect of such Lender’s share of the Loan Advance; it being understood that such amount advanced by such Lender shall constitute a Loan for all purposes hereunder. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
(ii) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder, stating that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is
37
distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan Advance to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Section 2, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Section 5 are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
(d) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan Advance in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan Advance in any particular place or manner.
2.3.12 Xxxxxxxx. The Administrative Agent may submit monthly xxxxxxxx reflecting payments due; however, any changes in the interest rate which occur between the date of billing and the due date may be reflected in the billing for a subsequent month. Neither the failure of the Administrative Agent to submit a billing nor any error in any such billing shall excuse the Borrower from the obligation to make full payment of all the Borrower’s payment obligations when due.
2.3.13 Default Rate.
(a) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing pursuant to Section 10.1.1, the Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.
(b) In the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent or upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any other Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.
(c) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.
2.3.14 Late Charges. The Borrower shall pay a late charge (herein, the “Late Charge”) equal to five percent (5%) of the amount of any interest which is not paid within ten (10) days of the due date thereof. Late charges are: (a) payable in addition to,
38
and not in limitation of, the Default Rate, (b) intended to compensate the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for administrative and processing costs incident to late payments, (c) are not interest, and (d) shall not be subject to refund or rebate or credited against any other amount due.
2.3.15 Breakage Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, immediately upon request and notwithstanding contrary provisions contained in any of the Loan Documents, such amounts as shall, in the conclusive judgment of the Administrative Agent (in the absence of manifest error), compensate the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for the loss, cost or expense which it may reasonably incur as a result of (i) any payment or prepayment, under any circumstances whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary, of all or any portion of a LIBO Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period of a LIBO Rate Advance, (ii) the conversion, for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary, of any LIBO Rate Advance to a Base Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) the failure of all or a portion of a Loan Advance which was to have borne interest at the LIBO Rate pursuant to the request of the Borrower to be made under the Loan Agreement (except as a result of any act or omission of Lender), or (iv) the failure of the Borrower to borrow in accordance with any request submitted by it for a LIBO Rate Advance. Such amounts payable by the Borrower shall be equal to any administrative costs actually incurred plus any amounts required to compensate for any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to fund or maintain a LIBO Rate Advance (herein, collectively, the “Breakage Fee”). A certificate from a Lender provided to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent setting forth the calculation and amount of its Breakage Fee shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
2.3.16 Borrower Information. The parties understand that the applicable interest rate for the Borrower’s Obligations and certain fees set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to the Lenders by Borrower (the “Borrower Information”). If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including without limitation because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by the Borrower) at the time it was delivered to the Agent, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period were different than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such written notice. Borrower shall receive a credit or refund of any overpayment promptly after such determination. Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s other rights under this Agreement
39
2.4 Loan Fees.
2.4.1 Loan Fees. The Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the parties specified therein the various fees in accordance with the Fee Letter.
2.4.2 Unused Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay an unused line fee (the “Line Fee”) to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of the Tranche A Lenders, as to any amounts due under (a) below, and the Tranche B Lenders, as to any amounts due under (b) below, from and after May 11, 2014 through July 1, 2014. The amount of the Line Fee on any given day shall equal, as applicable (a) the Line Percentage multiplied by the amount on such day by which the Total Tranche A Term Commitments exceeds the total Tranche A Term Facility Loans previously advanced under the Tranche A Term Facility, and (b) the applicable Line Percentage multiplied by the amount on such day by which the Total Tranche B Term Commitments exceeds the total Tranche B Term Facility Loans previously advanced under the Tranche B Term Facility. The Line Fee shall be payable to the Administrative Agent quarterly in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof, with the first and last payments to be prorated based upon the partial calendar quarters to which they apply.
2.4.3 Payment of Fees Generally. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of facility fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Fee Letter, fees paid under this Agreement shall not be refundable under any circumstances.
2.5 Intentionally Omitted.
2.6 Additional Provisions Related to Interest Rate Selection.
2.6.1 Increased Costs. If any Change in Law shall:
(a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBO Rate);
(b) subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any LIBO Rate Advance made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof; or
(c) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or LIBO Rate Advances made by such Lender;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any LIBO Rate Advance (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder
40
(whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, promptly upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. A certificate from a Lender provided to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent setting forth such amounts together with calculations thereof shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
2.6.2 Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time (and in any event within twenty (20) days) the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. A certificate from a Lender provided to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent setting forth such amounts together with calculations thereof shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
2.6.3 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or Governmental Authority shall assert by directive, guideline or otherwise, that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make or maintain LIBO Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain LIBO Rate Advances, and such Lender, without cost or expense, cannot hold or administer its Commitment from an office where maintaining and funding LIBO Rate Advances can be accomplished, then, on written notice thereof and demand by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, (a) the obligation of the Administrative Agent to make LIBO Rate Advances and to convert or continue any Loan as LIBO Rate Advances shall terminate and (b) at the end of the applicable Interest Period, the Borrower shall convert all principal outstanding under this Agreement into Base Rate Advances.
2.6.4 Availability. If, before or after the Borrower has selected to take or maintain a LIBO Rate Advance, but before the Interest Period with respect thereto commences, the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that:
(a) Dollar deposits in the amount and for the maturity requested are not available to the Lenders in the London interbank market at the rate specified in the definition of LIBO Rate set forth above, or
(b) Reasonable means do not exist for the Administrative Agent to determine the LIBO Rate for the amounts and maturity requested,
then the principal which would have been a LIBO Rate Advance shall be a Base Rate Advance.
41
2.6.5 Base Rate Advances. Each Base Rate Advance shall continue as a Base Rate Advance until the Maturity Date, unless sooner converted, in whole or in part, to a LIBO Rate Advance, subject to the limitations and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
2.6.6 Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
2.6.7 Mitigation.
(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 2.6, or the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8, then such Lender shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.8 or 2.6.1, 2.6.2, as the case may be, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Sections 2.6.1 or 2.6.2, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8, the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 13.2.4.
2.6.8 Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.6 shall survive termination of the Total Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder and resignation of the Administrative Agent.
2.6.9 Taxes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no additional amounts shall be payable by Borrower under this Section 2.6 with respect to Taxes on any amounts payable under the Loan Documents, which shall be governed by the provisions of Section 2.8 hereof.
42
2.7 Intentionally Omitted.
2.8 Taxes.
2.8.1 Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.
(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, each Guaranty) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes. If, however, applicable Laws require a Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such Laws as determined by such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.8.5 below.
(b) If the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) the Administrative Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Administrative Agent to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to Section 2.8.5 below (unless the Administrative Agent is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, in which case Borrower shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Borrower to be required based on the information and documentation it has received pursuant to Section 2.8.5 below), (B) the Administrative Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code (unless the Administrative Agent is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, in which case Borrower shall timely pay the full amount withheld and deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code), and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.
2.8.2 Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.8.1 above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws.
43
2.8.3 Tax Indemnifications.
(a) Without limiting the provisions of Sections 2.8.1 or 2.8.2 above, the Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 20 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) withheld or deducted by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The Borrower shall also, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within twenty (20) days after written demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required by clause (b) of this subsection. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(b) Without limiting the provisions of Sections 2.8.1 or 2.8.2 above, each Lender shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within twenty (20) days after written demand therefor, against any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Borrower or the Administrative Agent by any Governmental Authority as a result of the failure by such Lender to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.8.5. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (b). The agreements in this clause (b) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.
2.8.4 Evidence of Payments. Upon request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 2.8, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Law to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be.
44
2.8.5 Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.
(a) Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Laws or when reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction.
(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States,
(i) Any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements; and
(ii) Each Foreign Lender that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:
(A) Executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,
(B) Executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,
(C) Executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY and all required supporting documentation,
45

(E) Executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(c) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.8.5(c), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(d) Each Lender shall promptly (A) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (B) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any jurisdiction that the Borrower or the Administrative Agent make any withholding or deduction for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender.
2.8.6 Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender. If the
46
Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.
2.9 Defaulting Lenders.
2.9.1 Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws:
(a) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and in Section 13.4.1.
(b) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article XI or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.2 shall be applied at such time or times as may be reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in an interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations
47
under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied first to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder without giving effect to Section 2.9.1(d). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.9.1(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(c) Certain Fees.
(i) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Line Fee pursuant to Section 2.4.2 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) pursuant to Section 2.4.2 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender and the Borrower shall not be required to pay the remaining amount of such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender.
2.9.2 Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower and Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentages, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

3.3 Removal of Individual Property as a Borrowing Base Property - Administrative Agent.

3.4 Additional Borrowing Base Property. From time to time during the term of this Agreement following the Borrower’s written request (“Additional Borrowing Base Request”), the Administrative Agent shall accept one or more Individual Properties as Borrowing Base Properties upon the satisfaction of the following conditions, in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent:

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, neither the Arranger nor any other titled agents shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.
13.1.3 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
13.1.4 Exculpatory Provisions.
(a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing (but subject to Section 13.1.4(b)), the Administrative Agent:
(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
85
(ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law; and
(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary), or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.2 and 13.4.1 or (ii) in the absence of its own (or its officers’, directors’, employees’, agents’, attorneys in fact or Affiliates’) gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 5 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
13.1.5 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan Advance that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is
86
satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan Advance. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
13.1.6 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender.
13.1.7 Lenders’ Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
13.1.8 Administrative Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent, ratably in proportion to their respective Commitments, for (i) any amounts not reimbursed by the Borrower for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Borrower under this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (ii) any other expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, amendment, waiver and/or enforcement of this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (iii) any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or any transaction contemplated thereby, or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent that they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent. If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the action indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.
13.1.9 Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise
87
expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, CRT or any Borrower Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders..
13.1.10 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with and, if such appointment is prior to the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, with the prior approval of, the Borrower, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, at the direction and with the consent of the Borrower, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section and Section 15.9 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
88
13.1.11 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise
(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loan and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.4, and 15.9) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same.
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.4 and 15.9.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
13.1.12 Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary or an owner of a Borrowing Base Property or an indirect owner of a Borrowing Base Property Owner as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.
Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will promptly confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 13.1.12.
13.2 Respecting Loans and Payments.
13.2.1 Adjustments. If, after the Administrative Agent has paid each Lender’s proportionate share of any payment received or applied by the Administrative Agent in respect of the Loan and other Obligations, that payment is rescinded or must otherwise be returned or paid over by the Administrative Agent, whether pursuant to any Debtor Relief
89
Law, sharing of payments clause of any loan agreement or otherwise, such Lender shall, at the Administrative Agent’s request, promptly return its proportionate share of such payment or application to the Administrative Agent, together with such Lender’s proportionate share of any interest or other amount required to be paid by the Administrative Agent with respect to such payment or application.
13.2.2 Setoff. If any Lender (including the Administrative Agent), acting in its individual capacity, shall exercise any right of setoff against a deposit balance or other account of the Borrower held by such Lender on account of the obligations of the Borrower under this Loan Agreement, such Lender shall remit to the Administrative Agent all such sums received pursuant to the exercise of such right of setoff, and the Administrative Agent shall apply all such sums for the benefit of all of the Lenders hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement.
13.2.3 Distribution by the Administrative Agent. If in the opinion of the Administrative Agent distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve any liability, it may refrain from making distribution until its right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction or has been resolved by the mutual consent of all Lenders. In addition, the Administrative Agent may request full and complete indemnity, in form and substance satisfactory to it, prior to making any such distribution. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Administrative Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Administrative Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over to the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.
13.2.4 Removal or Replacement of a Lender. If any Lender requests compensation under Sections 2.6.1 or 2.6.2, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then in addition to, and not in limitation of, the rights and remedies that may be available to the Borrower at law or in equity, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 13.3), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:
(a) The Administrative Agent shall be paid the assignment fee specified in Section 13.3.2(d);
(b) Such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.3.15) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
90
(c) In the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Sections 2.6.1 or 2.6.2 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.8, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and
(d) Such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
13.2.5 Holders. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the Lender designated in the Register as the proportionate owner of such interest in the Obligations for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person or entity who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any designated interest in the Obligations shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or endorsee, as the case may be, of such interest in the Obligations.
13.3 Assignments by Lenders.
13.3.1 Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.3.2, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.3.4, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 13.3.6 (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 13.3.6 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
13.3.2 Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(a) Minimum Amounts.
(i) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
91
(ii) in any case not described in Section 13.3.2(a)(i), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.
(b) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned.
(c) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 13.3.2(a)(ii) and, in addition:
(i) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), an Affiliate of a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) or an Approved Fund; and
(ii) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.
(d) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
92
(e) No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to CRT, the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.
(f) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person.
(g) No Assignment to Defaulting Lenders. No such assignment shall be made to a Defaulting Lender.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.2.3, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.8, 2.6.1, 2.6.2, 2.3.15, and 15.9 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender; provided that such new Note shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall be otherwise in the form of Exhibit B. To the extent a Lender has assigned all of its Commitment and Loans, it covenants to return any outstanding Note to the Borrower or to provide a lost note indemnity in lieu thereof. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.
13.3.3 Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
13.3.4 Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or CRT or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s or CRT’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s
93
rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 13.4.1 that affects such Participant. Subject to Section 13.3.5, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.8, 2.6.1, 2.6.2 and 2.3.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 13.3.2. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.2 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 12.2 as though it were a Lender.
Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation under any Loan Document is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
13.3.5 Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.8, 2.3.15, 2.6.1 or 2.6.2 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 the Borrower’s prior written consent, provided in no instance shall the Borrower’s Obligations be increased as a result thereof. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.8 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant complies with Section 2.8.5 as though it were a Lender.
94
13.3.6 Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or foreclosure with respect to any such pledge shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee for such Lender as a party hereto.
13.4 Administrative Matters.
13.4.1 Amendment, Waiver, Consent, Etc. Except as otherwise provided herein or as to any term or provision hereof which specifically provides for the consent or approval of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and/or the Lenders, as applicable, no term or provision of this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated, nor may any consent required or permitted by this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document be given, unless such change, waiver, discharge, termination or consent receives the written approval of the Required Lenders; provided that, no such waiver and no such amendment, waiver, supplement, modification or release shall:
(a) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment or mandatory prepayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby,
(b) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 13.4 without the written consent of each Lender,
(c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan, or (subject to clause (iv) of the proviso at the end of this Section 13.4.1) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate,
(d) change the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder without the written consent of each Lender,
(e) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 11) without the written consent of such Lender,
(f) release or waive any guaranty of the Obligations or indemnifications provided in the Loan Documents except to the extent the release of the Guarantor is permitted by this Agreement (in which case such release may be made by the Administrative Agent acting alone) without the written consent of each Lender;
95
(g) require or accept any Collateral for the benefit of the Lenders other than on a pro rata basis, without the written consent of each Lender;
(h) require or accept one or more guarantees for the benefit of the Lenders other than on a pro rata basis, without the written consent of each Lender; or
(i) change Section 11.2 or Section 12.2 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender;
and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (ii) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (x) any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document relating solely to the rights and obligations of the Tranche A Lenders, and not any of the Tranche B Lenders, may be amended, and the performance or observance by Borrower or any other Loan Party of any such term may be waived with, and only with, the written consent of the Tranche A Required Lenders, provided that to the extent such terms relate to those items set forth in Section 13.4.1(a) through (i) that require the consent of each Lender, such amendment or waiver shall require the consent of each Tranche A Lender, and (y) any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document relating solely to the rights and obligations of the Tranche B Lenders, and not any of the Tranche A Lenders, may be amended, and the performance or observance by Borrower or any other Loan Party of any such term may be waived with, and only with, the written consent of the Tranche B Required Lenders, provided that to the extent such terms relate to those items set forth in Section 13.4.1(a) through (i) that require the consent of each Lender, such amendment or waiver shall require the consent of each Tranche B Lender.
13.4.2 Deemed Consent or Approval. With respect to any requested amendment, waiver, consent or other action which requires the approval of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement, or if the Administrative Agent is required hereunder to seek, or desires to seek, the approval of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as the case may be, prior to undertaking a particular action or course of conduct, the Administrative Agent in
96
each such case shall provide each Lender with written notice of any such request for amendment, waiver or consent or any other requested or proposed action or course of conduct, accompanied by such detailed background information and explanations as may be reasonably necessary to determine whether to approve or disapprove such amendment, waiver, consent or other action or course of conduct. The Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required to unless so requested by the Borrower) include in any such notice, printed in capital letters or boldface type, a legend substantially to the following effect:
“THIS COMMUNICATION REQUIRES IMMEDIATE RESPONSE. FAILURE TO RESPOND WITHIN TEN (10) CALENDAR DAYS FROM THE RECEIPT OF THIS COMMUNICATION SHALL CONSTITUTE A DEEMED APPROVAL BY THE ADDRESSEE OF THE ACTION REQUESTED BY THE BORROWER OR THE COURSE OF CONDUCT PROPOSED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND RECITED ABOVE”,
and if (and only if) the foregoing legend is included by the Administrative Agent in its communication, a Lender shall be deemed to have approved or consented to such action or course of conduct for all purposes hereunder if such Lender fails to object to such action or course of conduct by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) calendar days of such Lender’s receipt of such notice.

Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in subsection (b) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by telecopier as follows, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone number, as follows:
(i) if to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to the address, telecopier number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified for such Person on Schedule 15.1; and
(ii) if to any other Lender, to the address, telecopier number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified in its Administrative Questionnaire.
Notices and other communications sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices and other communications sent by telecopier shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on
97
the next business day for the recipient). Notices and other communications delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in subsection (b) below, shall be effective as provided in such subsection (b).
(b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to a Lender hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Section 2 if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.
Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.
(c) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent
98
jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).
(d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities Laws.
(e) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.
15.2 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the
99
interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
15.3 [Reserved].
15.4 [Reserved].
15.5 Parties Bound. The provisions of this Agreement and of each of the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except as otherwise prohibited by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.
This Agreement is a contract by and among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders for their mutual benefit, and no third Person shall have any right, claim or interest against either Administrative Agent, any of the Lenders or the Borrower by virtue of any provision hereof.

The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons, (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including in respect of any matters addressed in Section 2.8), (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any Loan Party in violation of any Environmental Legal Requirements, or any environmental liability of CRT, the Borrower or any Loan Party, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses,
102
claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such other Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
15.9.3 Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required hereunder Sections 15.9.1 or 15.9.2 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity.

No Indemnitee referred to in Section 15.9.2 above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from a claim described in clause (x) or (y) of Section 15.9.2.

15.12 Table of Contents, Title and Headings. Any Table of Contents, the titles and the headings of sections are not parts of this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall not be deemed to affect the meaning or construction of any of its or their provisions.
15.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 5.1, this Agreement shall become effective when the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each party hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
15.14 Satisfaction of Commitment Letter. The Loan being made pursuant to the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents is being made in satisfaction of Administrative Agent’s and each of the Lenders’ obligations under the Commitment Letter.

104
15.17 Monthly Statements. While the Administrative Agent may issue invoices or other statements on a monthly or periodic basis (a “Statement”), it is expressly acknowledged and agreed that: (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent to issue any Statement on one or more occasions shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations to make payments under the Loan Documents as and when due; (ii) the inaccuracy of any Statement shall not be binding upon Lenders and so the Borrower shall always remain obligated to pay the full amount(s) required under the Loan Documents as and when due notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any Statement; (iii) all Statements are issued for information purposes only and shall never constitute any type of offer, acceptance, modification, or waiver of the Loan Documents or any of Lenders’ rights or remedies thereunder; and (iv) in no event shall any Statement serve as the basis for, or a component of, any course of dealing, course of conduct, or trade practice which would modify, alter, or otherwise affect the express written terms of the Loan Documents.
15.18 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction completed hereby, the Borrower and each other Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the credit facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, each other Loan Party and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, on the other hand, and the Borrower and each other Loan Party is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Arranger have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. Each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent and the Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their respective affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates.
15.19 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and each other Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and each other Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower and each other Loan Party in accordance with the Act. The Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.
105
15.20 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives to the extent such parties require such information in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 2.1.1 or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. In addition, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about this Agreement to service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any Subsidiary. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 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 Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.

EXHIBIT F-1
FORM OF
CRT GUARANTY
GUARANTY
This Guaranty (hereinafter, the “Guaranty”) is given pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of February 11, 2014 (as amended, restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified in writing from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), among Cedar Realty Trust Partnership, L.P. (the “Borrower”), the Lenders from time to time party thereto, and KeyBank National Association, as Administrative Agent (in such capacity as Administrative Agent, the “Agent”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise specifically defined shall have the same meaning herein as in the Loan Agreement.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and to induce Agent and the Lenders to extend credit to the Borrower as provided for in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, CEDAR REALTY TRUST, INC., a Maryland corporation (hereinafter, “Guarantor”), hereby unconditionally agrees as follows:
1. Guaranty. Each Guarantor, as a primary party and not merely as a surety, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the prompt and full payment (and not merely the collectability), performance, and observance of all of the obligations, terms and conditions to be paid, performed or observed by Borrower under the Note, Loan Agreement and each other Loan Document and any Swap Contract, to or on behalf of the Agent, the Lenders, or any one of them, each as the same may be hereafter amended, modified, extended, renewed or recast, including, without limitation, all of the Obligations and the payment of all principal, interest, fees, all obligations and other charges when due under the Note, the Loan Agreement and each other Loan Document and any Swap Contract (hereinafter, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).
Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents, or if Agent has accelerated the Loan pursuant to a right to do so under the Loan Agreement, Agent may at its option proceed directly and at once, without notice (except as otherwise provided under the Loan Agreement), against Guarantor hereunder, without proceeding against Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other person for the Obligations or the Guaranteed Obligations.
If Borrower, or Guarantor if so required, shall fail or refuse to perform or continue performance of all of the Obligations on the part of Borrower to be kept and performed, then, if an Event of Default exists on account thereof under the Loan Documents or this Guaranty, in addition to any other rights and remedies which Agent or any Lender may have hereunder or elsewhere, and not in limitation thereof, Agent or any Lender, at such party’s option, may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Agreement and each other Loan Document.
Exhibit F-1 1
This Guaranty shall survive and continue in full force and effect beyond and after the payment and satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations and the Obligations in the event Agent or any Lender is required to disgorge or return any payment or property received as a result of any laws pertaining to preferences, fraudulent transfers or fraudulent conveyances.
2. Waivers. Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes to the fullest extent now or hereafter not prohibited by applicable law:
(a) | all suretyship defenses and defenses in the nature thereof; |
(b) | any right or claim of right to cause a marshaling of the assets of Borrower, or, if there shall be more than one Guarantor, to require Agent to proceed against any other Guarantor or any of Guarantors in any particular order; |
(c) | until satisfaction in full of the Obligations of the Borrower to the Agent and the Lenders, and the satisfaction in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, all rights and remedies, including, but not limited to, any rights of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, exoneration or indemnification pursuant to any agreement, express or implied, or now or hereafter accorded by applicable law to indemnitors, guarantors, sureties or accommodation parties; provided, however, unless Agent otherwise expressly agrees in writing, such waiver by Guarantor shall not be effective to the extent that by virtue thereof Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty is rendered invalid, voidable, or unenforceable under any applicable state or federal law dealing with the recovery or avoidance of so-called preferences or fraudulent transfers or conveyances or otherwise; |
(d) | notice of the acceptance hereof, presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of protest, or any and all notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, nonobservance or default, or other proof or notice of demand whereby to charge Guarantor therefor; |
(e) | the pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to Guarantor’s obligations hereunder; |
(f) | the right to a trial by jury in any matter related to this Guaranty; and |
(g) | the benefit of all other provisions of law which may be validly waived. |
GUARANTOR, AGENT AND LENDERS MUTUALLY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON THIS GUARANTY, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF AGENT OR ANY LENDER RELATING TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE LOAN OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREE THAT NONE OF THE PARTIES WILL SEEK TO
Exhibit F-1 2
CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES. GUARANTOR CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF AGENT OR ANY LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT AGENT OR ANY LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER. THIS WAIVER IS GIVEN AS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO AGENT AND THE LENDERS TO ACCEPT THIS GUARANTY AND TO MAKE THE LOAN.
3. Cumulative Rights. Agent’s and any Lender’s rights under this Guaranty shall be in addition to and not in limitation of all of the rights and remedies of Agent and any Lender under the Loan Documents. All rights and remedies of Agent and any Lender shall be cumulative and may be exercised in such manner and combination as Agent or any Lender may determine.
4. No Impairment. The liability of Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be limited or impaired by, and Guarantor hereby assents to and agrees to be bound by, any amendment or modification of the provisions of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract to or with Agent or any Lender by Borrower. In addition, the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents and any Swap Contract shall in no way be limited or impaired by:
(a) | any extensions of time for performance required by any of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract; |
(b) | any amendment to or modification of any of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract; |
(c) | any sale or assignment of the Loan, or any sale, transfer or exchange of all or part of any Borrowing Base Property; |
(d) | any exculpatory, or nonrecourse, or limited recourse, provision in any of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract limiting Agent’s or any Lender’s rights to a deficiency judgment against Borrower or any other person or entity; |
(e) | the accuracy or inaccuracy of any of the representations or warranties made by or on behalf of Borrower, any general partner, owner, principal, or agent of Borrower, or Guarantor, under any Loan Document or otherwise; |
(f) | the release of Borrower, any general partner, owner, principal, or agent of Borrower, or any other person or entity, from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract by operation of law, Agent’s or any Lender’s voluntary act, or otherwise; |
Exhibit F-1 3
(g) | the filing of any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding by or against Borrower or any general partner, owner, principal, or agent of Borrower or Guarantor; |
(h) | the release of any other party now or hereafter liable upon or in respect of this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents and any Swap Contract; or |
(i) | the invalidity or unenforceability of all or any portion of any of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract as to Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other person or entity. |
Any of the foregoing may be accomplished with or without notice to Borrower, any general partner, owner, principal, or agent of Borrower, or Guarantor, and with or without consideration.
5. Delay Not Waiver. No delay on Agent’s or any Lender’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver of any such privilege, power or right. No waiver by Agent or any Lender in any instance shall constitute a waiver in any other instance.
6. Warranties and Representations. Guarantor warrants and represents to Agent and each of the Lenders for the express purpose of inducing Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Loan Agreement, to make each Loan Advance, to accept this Guaranty, and to otherwise complete the transactions contemplated by the Loan Agreement, that as of the date of this Guaranty, upon the date of each Loan Advance, and at all times thereafter until the Loan is repaid and all Guaranteed Obligations to Agent and the Lenders have been satisfied in full, as follows:
(a) | Financial Information. Copies of the financial statements of Guarantor have been delivered to Agent and each Lender and each of the same fairly present Guarantor’s financial condition as of the dates thereof and no material and adverse change has occurred in Guarantor’s financial condition or business since the respective dates thereof; and each financial statement of Guarantor submitted in the future shall fairly present Guarantor’s financial condition as of the dates thereof. |
(b) | No Violation. The payment and performance by Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations and Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty does not and shall not constitute a violation of any law, order, regulation, contract or agreement to which Guarantor is a party or by which Guarantor or Guarantor’s property may be bound; |
(c) | No Litigation. There is no material litigation now pending or, to the best of Guarantor’s knowledge threatened in writing, against Guarantor which, if adversely decided would materially impair the ability of Guarantor to pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations, Guarantor’s obligations under the Loan Agreement, this Guaranty or any other Loan Document. |
Exhibit F-1 4
(d) | Entity Matters. The Guarantor is a duly organized, validly existing entity organized and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland, and has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business and to own its property as now conducted or owned, and is qualified to do business in all jurisdictions where the nature and extent of its business is such that such qualification is required by law. |
(e) | Valid and Binding. Each of the Loan Documents to which Guarantor is a party constitutes Guarantor’s legal, valid and binding obligation in accordance with the respective terms thereof, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws of general application affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and with respect to the availability of remedies of specific enforcement subject to the discretion of the court before which proceedings therefor may be brought. |
(f) | Solvency. Guarantor is solvent and is not rendered insolvent by the obligations undertaken in this Guaranty. Guarantor is not contemplating either the filing of a petition or proceeding under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency or reorganization laws or the liquidating of all or a major portion of Guarantor’s property. |
(g) | Material Economic Benefit. The granting of the Credit Extensions to Borrower will constitute a material economic benefit to Guarantor. |

Exhibit F-1 6

Exhibit F-1 7
subordinated to the prior, full and Non-Contestable Payment and satisfaction of all Obligations of Borrower to the Agent and the Lenders. Payment and satisfaction of the Obligations shall be deemed “Non-Contestable Payment” only upon such payment and satisfaction and the expiration of all periods of time within which a claim for the recovery of a preferential payment, or fraudulent conveyance, or fraudulent transfer, in respect of payments received by Agent or any Lender as to the Obligations could be filed or asserted with: (A) no such claim having been filed or asserted, or (B) if so filed or asserted, the final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction denying the claim or assertion. |
(b) | Except as may be otherwise specifically provided for in the Loan Agreement with respect to Permitted Distributions, at all times until the full and Non-Contestable Payment and satisfaction of the Obligations of Borrower to Agent and the Lenders with respect to the Loan (and including interest accruing on the Loan Advances after the commencement of a case by or against Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws now or hereafter in effect, which interest the parties agree shall remain a claim that is prior and superior to any claim of Guarantor or any affiliated entity notwithstanding any contrary practice, custom or ruling in cases under the Debtor Relief Laws, as now or hereafter in effect, generally), Guarantor, and each affiliated entity, agrees not to accept any payment or satisfaction for any kind of indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor, or any affiliated entity, and hereby assigns such indebtedness to Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, including, but not limited to, the right to file proofs of claim and to vote thereon in connection with any such case under any Debtor Relief Laws, as now or hereafter in effect, and the right to vote on any plan of reorganization. |
(c) | In addition to the foregoing, and not in limitation thereof, until the full payment and satisfaction of all Obligations of Borrower to Agent and the Lenders, any claims of Guarantor, or any affiliated entity, of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification, or reimbursement arising out of any payment made on this Guaranty, whether such claim is based upon an express or implied contract, or operation of law, are hereby waived; provided, however, unless Agent otherwise expressly agrees in writing, such waiver by Guarantor shall not be effective to the extent that by virtue thereof Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty or under any other Loan Document is rendered invalid, voidable, or unenforceable under any applicable state or federal law dealing with the recovery or avoidance of so-called preferences or fraudulent conveyances or otherwise. |
16. Legal Fees, Costs and Expenses. Guarantor further agrees to pay within thirty (30) days after demand all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Agent and the Lenders, or their successors or assigns, in connection with enforcing any of the rights or remedies of Agent or any Lender, or such successors or assigns, under or with respect to this Guaranty including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and the out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements of such attorneys. Any such amounts which are not paid within thirty (30) days of demand therefor shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of demand until paid.

EXHIBIT F-2
FORM OF
SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY
GUARANTY
This Guaranty (hereinafter, the “Guaranty”) is given pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of February 11, 2014 (as amended, restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified in writing from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), among Cedar Realty Trust Partnership, L.P. (the “Borrower”), the Lenders from time to time party thereto, and KeyBank National Association, as Administrative Agent (in such capacity as Administrative Agent, the “Agent”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise specifically defined shall have the same meaning herein as in the Loan Agreement.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and to induce Agent and the Lenders to extend credit to the Borrower as provided for in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each of the undersigned guarantors LISTED ON SCHEDULE 1 attached hereto (individually and collectively, jointly and severally, hereinafter, “Guarantor”), hereby unconditionally agrees as follows:
1. Guaranty. Each Guarantor, as a primary party and not merely as a surety, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the prompt and full payment (and not merely the collectability), performance, and observance of all of the obligations, terms and conditions to be paid, performed or observed by Borrower under the Note, Loan Agreement and each other Loan Document and any Swap Contract, to or on behalf of the Agent, the Lenders, or any one of them, each as the same may be hereafter amended, modified, extended, renewed or recast, including, without limitation, all of the Obligations and the payment of all principal, interest, fees, all obligations and other charges when due under the Note, the Loan Agreement and each other Loan Document and any Swap Contract (hereinafter, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).
Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents, or if Agent has accelerated the Loan pursuant to a right to do so under the Loan Agreement, Agent may at its option proceed directly and at once, without notice (except as otherwise provided under the Loan Agreement), against any Guarantor hereunder, without proceeding against Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other person for the Obligations or the Guaranteed Obligations.
If Borrower, or any Guarantor if so required, shall fail or refuse to perform or continue performance of all of the Obligations on the part of Borrower to be kept and performed, then, if an Event of Default exists on account thereof under the Loan Documents or this Guaranty, in addition to any other rights and remedies which Agent or any Lender may have hereunder or elsewhere, and not in limitation thereof, Agent or any Lender, at such party’s option, may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Agreement and each other Loan Document.
Exhibit F-2 - 1
This Guaranty shall survive and continue in full force and effect beyond and after the payment and satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations and the Obligations in the event Agent or any Lender is required to disgorge or return any payment or property received as a result of any laws pertaining to preferences, fraudulent transfers or fraudulent conveyances.
2. Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes to the fullest extent now or hereafter not prohibited by applicable law:
(a) | all suretyship defenses and defenses in the nature thereof; |
(b) | any right or claim of right to cause a marshaling of the assets of Borrower, or, if there shall be more than one Guarantor, to require Agent to proceed against any other Guarantor or any of Guarantors in any particular order; |
(c) | until satisfaction in full of the Obligations of the Borrower to the Agent and the Lenders, and the satisfaction in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, or such Guarantor has been released from its obligations under this Guaranty pursuant to Section 12 hereof, whichever is earlier, all rights and remedies, including, but not limited to, any rights of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, exoneration or indemnification pursuant to any agreement, express or implied, or now or hereafter accorded by applicable law to indemnitors, guarantors, sureties or accommodation parties; provided, however, unless Agent otherwise expressly agrees in writing, such waiver by any particular Guarantor shall not be effective to the extent that by virtue thereof such Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty is rendered invalid, voidable, or unenforceable under any applicable state or federal law dealing with the recovery or avoidance of so-called preferences or fraudulent transfers or conveyances or otherwise; |
(d) | notice of the acceptance hereof, presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of protest, or any and all notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, nonobservance or default, or other proof or notice of demand whereby to charge any Guarantor therefor; |
(e) | the pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder; |
(f) | the right to a trial by jury in any matter related to this Guaranty; and |
(g) | the benefit of all other provisions of law which may be validly waived. |
EACH GUARANTOR, AGENT AND LENDERS MUTUALLY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON THIS GUARANTY, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF AGENT OR ANY LENDER RELATING
Exhibit F-2 - 2
TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE LOAN OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREE THAT NONE OF THE PARTIES WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES. EACH GUARANTOR CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF AGENT OR ANY LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT AGENT OR ANY LENDER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER. THIS WAIVER IS GIVEN AS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO AGENT AND THE LENDERS TO ACCEPT THIS GUARANTY AND TO MAKE THE LOAN.
3. Cumulative Rights. Agent’s and any Lender’s rights under this Guaranty shall be in addition to and not in limitation of all of the rights and remedies of Agent and any Lender under the Loan Documents. All rights and remedies of Agent and any Lender shall be cumulative and may be exercised in such manner and combination as Agent or any Lender may determine.
4. No Impairment. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be limited or impaired by, and each Guarantor hereby assents to and agrees to be bound by, any amendment or modification of the provisions of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract to or with Agent or any Lender by Borrower or any other Guarantor or any person who succeeds any Guarantor as owner (or indirect owner as the case may be) of a Borrowing Base Property (hereinafter, the “Property”). In addition, the liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents and any Swap Contract shall in no way be limited or impaired by:
(a) | any extensions of time for performance required by any of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract; |
(b) | any amendment to or modification of any of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract; |
(c) | any sale or assignment of the Loan, or any sale, transfer or exchange of all or part of the Property; |
(d) | any exculpatory, or nonrecourse, or limited recourse, provision in any of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract limiting Agent’s or any Lender’s rights to a deficiency judgment against Borrower or any other person or entity; |
(e) | the accuracy or inaccuracy of any of the representations or warranties made by or on behalf of Borrower, any general partner, owner, principal, or agent of Borrower, or any Guarantor, under any Loan Document or otherwise; |
(f) | the release of Borrower, any general partner, owner, principal, or agent of Borrower, or any other person or entity (other than such Guarantor pursuant to Section 12 hereof), from performance or observance of any of the agreements, |
Exhibit F-2 - 3
covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract by operation of law, Agent’s or any Lender’s voluntary act, or otherwise; |
(g) | the filing of any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding by or against Borrower, any general partner, owner, principal, or agent of Borrower, any Guarantor, or any subsequent owner of the Property; |
(h) | the release of any other party now or hereafter liable upon or in respect of this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents and any Swap Contract; or |
(i) | the invalidity or unenforceability of all or any portion of any of the Loan Documents and any Swap Contract as to Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other person or entity. |
Any of the foregoing may be accomplished with or without notice to Borrower, any general partner, owner, principal, or agent of Borrower, or any Guarantor, and with or without consideration.
5. Delay Not Waiver. No delay on Agent’s or any Lender’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver of any such privilege, power or right. No waiver by Agent or any Lender in any instance shall constitute a waiver in any other instance.
6. Warranties and Representations. Each Guarantor warrants and represents to Agent and each of the Lenders for the express purpose of inducing Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Loan Agreement, to make each Loan Advance, to accept this Guaranty, and to otherwise complete the transactions contemplated by the Loan Agreement, as to such Guarantor, that as of the date of this Guaranty, upon the date of each Loan Advance, and at all times thereafter until the Loan is repaid and all Guaranteed Obligations to Agent and the Lenders have been satisfied in full, or such Guarantor has been released from its obligations under this Guaranty pursuant to Section 12 hereof, whichever is earlier, as follows:
(a) | Financial Information. Copies of the financial statements of such Guarantor have been delivered to Agent and each Lender and each of the same fairly present such Guarantor’s financial condition as of the dates thereof and no material and adverse change has occurred in such Guarantor’s financial condition or business since the respective dates thereof; and each financial statement of such Guarantor submitted in the future shall fairly present such Guarantor’s financial condition as of the dates thereof. |
(b) | No Violation. The payment and performance by such Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations and such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, does not and shall not constitute a violation of any law, order, regulation, contract or agreement to which such Guarantor is a party or by which such Guarantor or Guarantor’s property may be bound; |
Exhibit F-2 - 4
(c) | No Litigation. There is no material litigation now pending or, to the best of such Guarantor’s knowledge threatened in writing, against such Guarantor which, if adversely decided would materially impair the ability of such Guarantor to pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations, such Guarantor’s obligations under the Loan Agreement, this Guaranty or any other Loan Document. |
(d) | Entity Matters. If such Guarantor is a Delaware Guarantor (as defined in Schedule 1), such Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing entity organized and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business and to own its property as now conducted or owned, and is qualified to do business in all jurisdictions where the nature and extent of its business is such that such qualification is required by law. If such Guarantor is a Pennsylvania Guarantor (as defined in Schedule 1), such Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing entity organized and in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business and to own its property as now conducted or owned, and is qualified to do business in all jurisdictions where the nature and extent of its business is such that such qualification is required by law. If such Guarantor is a Virginia Guarantor (as defined in Schedule 1), such Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing entity organized and in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, and has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business and to own its property as now conducted or owned, and is qualified to do business in all jurisdictions where the nature and extent of its business is such that such qualification is required by law. |
(e) | Valid and Binding. Each of the Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party constitutes such Guarantor’s legal, valid and binding obligation in accordance with the respective terms thereof, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws of general application affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and with respect to the availability of remedies of specific enforcement subject to the discretion of the court before which proceedings therefor may be brought. |
(f) | Solvency. Such Guarantor is solvent and is not rendered insolvent by the obligations undertaken in this Guaranty. Such Guarantor is not contemplating either the filing of a petition or proceeding under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency or reorganization laws or the liquidating of all or a major portion of such Guarantor’s property, and such Guarantor has no knowledge of any such petition or proceeding being filed against any other Guarantor. |
(g) | Material Economic Benefit. The granting of the Credit Extensions to Borrower will constitute a material economic benefit to such Guarantor. |

9. Parties Bound; Benefit. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor and such Guarantor’s respective successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives and shall be for the benefit of Agent and each Lender, and of any subsequent holder of Agent’s or any Lender’s interest in the Loan and of any owner of a participation interest therein. In the event the interest of Agent or any other Lender under the Loan Documents is sold or transferred, then the liability of each Guarantor to Agent or such Lender shall then be in favor of both the Agent or Lender originally named herein and each subsequent holder of Agent’s or Lender’s interest therein, to the extent of their respective interests.
10. Joint and Several. If there is more than one (1) Guarantor, the obligations of each Guarantor, and such Guarantor’s respective successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives, shall be and remain joint and several. Except as otherwise provided herein, reference to Guarantor shall include each Guarantor separately as well as all Guarantors collectively.
11. Additional Guarantors. The initial Guarantors hereunder shall be each of the Guarantors that are signatories hereto and that are listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto. From time to time subsequent to the time hereof, additional Guarantors may become parties hereto, pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Agreement (each an “Additional Guarantor”) by executing a counterpart of this Guaranty in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. Upon delivery of any such counterpart to Agent, notice of which is hereby waived by Guarantors, each such Additional Guarantor shall be a Guarantor and shall be a party hereto effective as of the date of execution by such Guarantor. Each Guarantor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Guarantor hereunder, or by any election by Agent not to cause any Guarantor to become an Additional Guarantor hereunder. This Guaranty shall be fully effective as to any Guarantor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any such person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Guarantor hereunder.
12. Release of Guarantors. Pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Agreement, a Guarantor may be released from its obligations under this Guaranty by Agent’s execution of a Release of Guaranty in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto. Each Guarantor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the release of any other Guarantor hereunder.
Exhibit F-2 - 7
13. Partial Invalidity. Each of the provisions hereof shall be enforceable against each Guarantor to the fullest extent now or hereafter not prohibited by applicable law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall not limit the validity or enforceability of each other provision hereof.
14. Governing Law. This Guaranty and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall in all respects be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York. Agent or any Lender may enforce its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, its rights to xxx any Guarantor or to collect any outstanding indebtedness in accordance with applicable law.
15. Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of Guarantor, Agent and the Lenders (by their acceptance of this Guaranty) irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located within the First Department of the New York State Unified Court System and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of said parties irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State Court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such Federal Court. Each of said parties agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guaranty or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty or any other Loan Document against any Guarantor or any other Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. Each Guarantor hereby agrees and consents that in addition to any methods of service of process provided for under applicable law, all service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding in any New York State or Federal Court located within the Southern District of the State of New York may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to such Guarantor at the address indicated in Section 7 above and service so made shall be deemed completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so mailed.
16. [Reserved]
17. Additional Covenant of the Guarantor. Each Guarantor shall pay, perform, observe and comply with all of the obligations, terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Guaranty and by any provisions of the Loan Agreement specifically applicable to such Guarantor.
18. Subordination.
(a) Except as may be otherwise specifically provided for in the Loan Agreement with respect to Permitted Distributions, any indebtedness of Borrower to any Guarantor, or to any affiliated entity, now or hereafter existing together with any interest thereon shall be, and such indebtedness is, hereby deferred, postponed and subordinated to the prior, full and Non-Contestable Payment and satisfaction of all Obligations of Borrower to the Agent and the
Exhibit F-2 - 8
Lenders. Payment and satisfaction of the Obligations shall be deemed “Non-Contestable Payment” only upon such payment and satisfaction and the expiration of all periods of time within which a claim for the recovery of a preferential payment, or fraudulent conveyance, or fraudulent transfer, in respect of payments received by Agent or any Lender as to the Obligations could be filed or asserted with: (A) no such claim having been filed or asserted, or (B) if so filed or asserted, the final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction denying the claim or assertion.
(b) Except as may be otherwise specifically provided for in the Loan Agreement with respect to Permitted Distributions, at all times until the full and Non-Contestable Payment and satisfaction of the Obligations of Borrower to Agent and the Lenders with respect to the Loan (and including interest accruing on the Loan Advances after the commencement of a case by or against Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws now or hereafter in effect, which interest the parties agree shall remain a claim that is prior and superior to any claim of any Guarantor or any affiliated entity notwithstanding any contrary practice, custom or ruling in cases under the Debtor Relief Laws, as now or hereafter in effect, generally), each Guarantor, and each affiliated entity, agrees not to accept any payment or satisfaction for any kind of indebtedness of Borrower to any Guarantor, or any affiliated entity, and hereby assigns such indebtedness to Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, including, but not limited to, the right to file proofs of claim and to vote thereon in connection with any such case under any Debtor Relief Laws, as now or hereafter in effect, and the right to vote on any plan of reorganization.
(c) In addition to the foregoing, and not in limitation thereof, until the full payment and satisfaction of all Obligations of Borrower to Agent and the Lenders, any claims of any Guarantor, or any affiliated entity, of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification, or reimbursement arising out of any payment made on this Guaranty, whether such claim is based upon an express or implied contract, or operation of law, are hereby waived; provided, however, unless Agent otherwise expressly agrees in writing, such waiver by any Guarantor shall not be effective to the extent that by virtue thereof such Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty or under any other Loan Document is rendered invalid, voidable, or unenforceable under any applicable state or federal law dealing with the recovery or avoidance of so-called preferences or fraudulent conveyances or otherwise.
19. Legal Fees, Costs and Expenses. Each Guarantor further agrees to pay within thirty (30) days after demand all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Agent and the Lenders, or their successors or assigns, in connection with enforcing any of the rights or remedies of Agent or any Lender, or such successors or assigns, under or with respect to this Guaranty including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and the out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements of such attorneys. Any such amounts which are not paid within thirty (30) days of demand therefor shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of demand until paid.
20. Setoff. Subject to the terms of this Section 20, each Guarantor hereby grants to Agent and each of the Lenders, a lien, security interest and right of setoff as security for all liabilities and obligations to Agent and the Lenders, whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Agent or any Lender or any entity under the control of Agent or Lender, or in transit to any of them. At any time, from and after the occurrence of and during
Exhibit F-2 - 9
the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent or any Lender may set off the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of each Guarantor even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Loan. Within five (5) Business Days of making any such set-off, Agent agrees to notify each Guarantor thereof, provided that the failure by Agent to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off.
21. Counterparts. Delivery of executed counterparts of this Guaranty by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as an original.
22. ISDA ECP Guarantor Keepwell Terms. The ISDA ECP Guarantor Keepwell Terms published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc., on April 18, 2013, attached hereto as Schedule 2, are incorporated and apply to this Guaranty. For the avoidance of doubt, a “Qualified Keepwell Provider,” as such term is used in the ISDA ECP Guarantor Keepwell Terms, shall mean Cedar Realty Trust, Inc.

ISDA ECP GUARANTOR KEEPWELL TERMS
published on April 18, 2013
by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.
(a) Incorporation
These ISDA ECP Guarantor Keepwell Terms (“Keepwell Terms”) may be incorporated into any agreement, document, instrument, confirmation or other writing, whether in physical or electronic form (“Writing”) by indicating in the Writing that, or the extent to which, these Keepwell Terms are incorporated into or otherwise applicable to such Writing. These Keepwell Terms will be deemed to be part of or otherwise applicable to such a Writing to the same extent as if set forth therein except as otherwise modified or provided in that Writing. Terms defined herein shall have their meanings solely for purposes of these Keepwell Terms unless otherwise provided in the relevant Writing.
(b) Keepwell
Each Qualified Keepwell Provider with respect to a Swap Counterparty hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other credit support as may be needed by any Supported Guarantor of such Swap Counterparty from time to time to honor all of such Supported Guarantor’s obligations under any Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations of such Swap Counterparty (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such party’s obligations hereunder voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations and undertakings of a Qualified Keepwell Provider with respect to any Swap Counterparty under this paragraph shall remain in full force and effect until all Swap Obligations of such Swap Counterparty in respect of which a Supported Guarantor has provided a Guaranty have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. The parties intend this provision to constitute, and this provision shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Supported Guarantor for all purposes of the CEA.
(c) Definitions
As used herein, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
“CEA” means the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.), as amended from time to time, and any successor statute.
“CFTC” means the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
“DCM” means a board of trade designated as a contract market under Section 5 of the CEA.
“ECP” means an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the CEA and regulations thereunder.
“Eligibility Date” means, with respect to a Guarantor and a Swap, the date on which a Guaranty becomes effective with respect to such Swap. For the avoidance of doubt, the Eligibility Date shall be the date of the execution of a Swap if the corresponding Guaranty is then in effect, and otherwise it shall be the date of execution and delivery of such Guaranty unless the Guaranty specifies a subsequent effective date.
“Guarantor” means any person or entity issuing or providing a Guaranty.
“Guaranty” means a guaranty or assumption of liability as surety with respect to obligations of one or more Swap Counterparties.
“Qualified Keepwell Provider” means with respect to a Swap Counterparty, each person specified as such in this Writing, and if no such persons are specified, each Guarantor in respect of Swap Obligations of such Swap Counterparty that is, as of the Eligibility Date, (i) a corporation, partnership, proprietorship, organization, trust, or other entity other than a “commodity pool” as defined in Section la(10) of the CEA and CFTC regulations thereunder that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 or (ii) an ECP that can cause another person to qualify as an ECP on the Eligibility Date under Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the CEA by entering into a keepwell.
“Supported Guarantor” means with respect to a Swap Counterparty, each person specified as such in this Writing, and if no such persons are specified, each Guarantor in respect of Swap Obligations of such Swap Counterparty that is, as of the Eligibility Date, (i) a corporation, partnership, proprietorship, organization, trust or other entity other than a “commodity pool” as defined in Section la(10) of the CEA and CFTC regulations thereunder that would not be an ECP on the Eligibility Date but for the effect of these Keepwell Terms or (ii) a person that the CFTC has determined is eligible to qualify as an ECP under Section 1a(18) of the CEA by virtue of being a beneficiary of a keepwell and that would not qualify as an ECP but for the effect of these Keepwell Terms.
“Swap” means any “swap” as defined in Section la(47) of the CEA and regulations thereunder other than (i) a swap entered into on, or subject to the rules of, a DCM, or (ii) a commodity option entered into pursuant to CFTC Regulation 32.3(a).
“Swap Counterparty” means any party hereto who is party to a Swap with one or more Swap Providers, whether at inception, by novation, or otherwise, including any successors to such party.
“Swap Obligation” means any obligation to pay or perform under any agreement, contract or transaction that constitutes a Swap between a Swap Counterparty and a Swap Provider of such Swap Counterparty.
“Swap Provider” with respect to a Swap Counterparty, means the person or persons specified as such in this Writing, and if no such persons are specified, each person who is the counterparty to a Swap with such Swap Counterparty hereunder, whether at inception, by novation, or otherwise, including any successors to such party.
