ARTICLE 2
GENERAL TERMS
Section 2.1 The Loan. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender
hereby agrees to make and Borrower hereby agrees to accept the Loan on the Closing Date.
Section 2.2 Disbursement to Borrower. Borrower may request and receive only one borrowing
hereunder in respect of the Loan and any amount borrowed and repaid hereunder in respect of the
Loan may not be re-borrowed.
Section 2.3 The Note and the other Loan Documents. The Loan shall be evidenced by the Note
and this Agreement and secured by this Agreement, the Security Instrument and the other Loan
Documents.
Section 2.4 Intentionally Omitted.
Section 2.5 Interest Rate.
(a) Generally, interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall accrue from the
Closing Date up to but excluding the Maturity Date at the Interest Rate.
(b) Intentionally Omitted.
(c) Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent
permitted by Applicable Law, overdue interest in respect of the Loan, shall accrue interest at the
Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure
periods contained herein.
(d) Interest Calculation. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan
shall accrue at the Interest Rate calculated on an Actual/360 Basis. Borrower acknowledges that
interest calculated on an Actual/360 Basis exceeds interest calculated on a 30/360 Basis and,
therefore: (i) a greater portion of each monthly installment of principal (if applicable) and
interest will be applied to interest using the Actual/360 Basis than would be the case if interest
accrued on a 30/360 Basis and (ii) the unpaid principal balance of the Loan on the Maturity Date
will be greater using the Actual/360 Basis than would be the case if interest accrued on a 30/360
Basis.
(e) Usury Savings. The term “Maximum Rate” shall mean the highest lawful rate of
interest applicable to the Note. In determining the Maximum Rate, due regard shall be given to all
payments, fees, charges, deposits, balances and agreements which may
17
constitute interest or be deducted from principal when calculating interest. If Chapter 303
of the Finance Code, Vernon’s Texas Civil Statutes, is deemed (by any court of competent
jurisdiction) to be applicable to the Note, and applicable state or federal law does not permit a
higher interest rate, the “weekly ceiling” (as defined in Chapter 303 of the Finance Code, Vernon’s
Texas Civil Statutes) shall be the interest rate ceiling applicable to the Note and shall be the
basis for determining the Maximum Rate. If applicable state or federal law allows a higher
interest rate or federal law preempts the state law limiting the rate of interest, then the
foregoing interest rate ceiling shall not be applicable to the Note. If the Maximum Rate is
increased by statute or other governmental action subsequent to the date of the Note, then the new
Maximum Rate shall be applicable to the Note from the effective date thereof, unless otherwise
prohibited by applicable law.
Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Note shall be computed on the basis set forth
in this Article 2 (the “Stated Rate”), but in no event shall the Stated Rate be greater than the
Maximum Rate described immediately above.
It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of the undersigned and holder of the
Note (together with its successors and assigns, the “Noteholder”) at all times to comply with
applicable law governing the Maximum Rate or amount of interest payable on or in connection with
the Note and the Loan (or applicable United States federal law to the extent that it permits the
Noteholder to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than
under any such applicable State law). If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as
to render usurious any amount called for under the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Loan, or if
acceleration of the maturity of the Note or if any prepayment by the undersigned results in the
undersigned having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by law, then it is the
undersigned’s and the Noteholder’s express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by
the Noteholder be credited on the principal balance of the Note without any prepayment premium (or,
if the Note has been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to the undersigned), and the
provisions of the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed
and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of
the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with applicable law, but so as to permit the
recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. The right to
accelerate maturity of the Note does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not
otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and the Noteholder does not intend to collect
any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All sums paid or owed to be paid to the
Noteholder for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness evidence hereby shall, to the
extent permitted by applicable law be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full
term of such indebtedness until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account
of such indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Rate. Notwithstanding any provisions contained in
the Note, this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents that permit the compounding of
interest (including, without limitation, any provision by which any accrued interest is added to
the principal amount of the Note), if and to the extent the laws of the State of Texas are deemed
to apply to the aforesaid provisions (by any court of competent jurisdiction), the total amount of
interest that the undersigned is obligated to pay and the Noteholder is entitled to receive with
respect to the Note shall not exceed the amount calculated on a simple (i.e., non-compounded)
interest basis at the Maximum Rate on principal amounts actually advanced to or for the account of
the undersigned, including all current and
18
prior advances and any advances made pursuant to the Security Instrument or other Loan
Documents (such as for the payment of taxes, insurance premiums, repairs and other expenses or
costs).
Section 2.6 Loan Payments.
(a) Payment Before Maturity. Borrower shall make a payment to Lender of interest only
on the Closing Date for the period from the Closing Date through the last day of the month in which
the Closing Date occurs (unless the Closing Date is the first day of a calendar month, in which
case no such separate payment of interest shall be due). Borrower shall make a payment to Lender
of interest only in the amount of the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount on the Monthly Payment
Date occurring in August, 2011 and on each Monthly Payment Date thereafter to and including the
Maturity Date. Each payment shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and the balance,
if any, to principal.
(b) Intentionally Omitted.
(c) Payment on Maturity. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Maturity Date the
outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts
due hereunder and under the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.
(d) Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or any other sum due under the
Loan Documents, other than the payment of principal due on the Maturity Date, is not paid by
Borrower on the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender promptly following demand
therefor an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum
amount permitted by Applicable Law in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling
and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such
delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Security Instrument and the other Loan
Documents.
(e) Method and Place of Payment.
(i) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments and prepayments under this
Agreement and the Note shall be made to Lender not later than 11:00 A.M., California time, on the
date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately
available funds at Lender’s office, and any funds received by Lender after such time shall, for all
purposes hereof, be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.
(ii) Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be
stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be deemed to be
the immediately succeeding Business Day.
(iii) All payments required to be made by Borrower hereunder or under the Note or the other
Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of, and without deduction for, any setoff, claim or
counterclaim and shall be made irrespective of any defense thereto.
Section 2.7 Prepayments.
19
(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall not have the right to prepay the Loan
in whole or in part. On and after the Monthly Payment Date occurring three (3) months prior to the
Maturity Date (the “Open Period Start Date”), provided no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Borrower may, at its option and upon not less than thirty (30) days prior revocable
notice (the “Prepayment Notice”) to Lender (or such shorter period of time as may be permitted by
Lender in its sole discretion), prepay the Debt in whole but not in part, on any date without
payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium. Any prepayment received by Lender on a date other than a
Monthly Payment Date shall include interest which would have accrued thereon to the next Monthly
Payment Date (such amounts, the “Interest Shortfall”). BORROWER HEREBY AGREES THAT IN THE EVENT
BORROWER DELIVERS A PREPAYMENT NOTICE AND FAILS TO PREPAY THE LOAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
PREPAYMENT NOTICE AND THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION 2.7 (A “PREPAYMENT FAILURE”), BORROWER SHALL
INDEMNIFY LENDER FROM AND AGAINST, AND SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR, ALL LOSSES (INCLUDING ANY BREAKAGE
COSTS) INCURRED BY LENDER WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH PREPAYMENT FAILURE, PROVIDED THAT SUCH INDEMNITY
SHALL NOT, AS TO LENDER, BE AVAILABLE TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LOSSES ARE DETERMINED BY A COURT OF
COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY FINAL AND NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT TO HAVE RESULTED FROM THE GROSS
NEGLIGENCE, ILLEGAL ACTS, BAD FAITH OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH PERSON.
(b) Mandatory Prepayments. On each date on which Lender actually receives a
distribution of Net Proceeds, and if such Net Proceeds are not made available to Borrower for
Restoration, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal balance of the Note in an amount equal
to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Proceeds together with any applicable Interest Shortfall.
No Yield Maintenance Premium shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this
Section 2.7(b).
(c) Prepayments After Default. If during the continuance of an Event of Default (and
prior to the Open Period Start Date), payment of all or any part of the principal of the Loan is
tendered by Borrower, a purchaser at foreclosure or any other Person, such tender shall be deemed
an attempt to circumvent the prohibition against prepayment prior to the Open Period Start Date as
set forth herein and Borrower, such purchaser at foreclosure or other Person shall pay (i) the
Yield Maintenance Premium and (ii) Interest Shortfall, in addition to the outstanding principal
balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts payable under the Loan Documents.
Borrower acknowledges that (i) a prepayment will cause damage to Lender; (ii) the Yield Maintenance
Premium is intended to compensate Lender for the loss of its investment and the expense incurred
and time and effort associated with making the Loan, which will not be fully repaid if the Loan is
prepaid; (iii) it will be extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of Lender’s
damages caused by a prepayment after an acceleration or any other prepayment not permitted by the
Loan Documents; and (iv) the Yield Maintenance Premium represents Lender’s and Borrower’s
reasonable estimate of Lender’s damages from the prepayment and is not a penalty.
Section 2.8 Defeasance.
(a) Total Defeasance.
20
(i) Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and remain uncured, Borrower shall have
the right at any time after the Defeasance Lockout Release Date and prior to the Open Period Start
Date to voluntarily defease the entire Loan and obtain a release of the lien of the Security
Instrument by providing Lender with the Total Defeasance Collateral (hereinafter, a “Total
Defeasance Event”), subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:
(A) | Borrower shall provide Lender not less than forty-five (45) days notice (or such shorter period of time if permitted by Lender in its sole discretion) but not more than ninety (90) days notice specifying a date (the “Total Defeasance Date”) on which the Total Defeasance Event is to occur; | ||
(B) | Borrower shall pay to Lender (1) all payments of principal and interest due and payable on the Loan to and including the Total Defeasance Date (provided that, if such Total Defeasance Date is not a Monthly Payment Date, Borrower shall also pay to Lender all payments of principal and interest due on the Loan to and including the next occurring Monthly Payment Date); (2) all other sums, if any, then due and payable under the Note, this Agreement, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents through and including the Total Defeasance Date (or, if the Total Defeasance Date is not a Monthly Payment Date, the next occurring Monthly Payment Date); (3) all reasonable escrow, closing, recording, legal, appraisal, Rating Agency and other fees, costs and expenses paid or incurred by Lender or its agents in connection with the Total Defeasance Event, the release of the lien of Security Instrument on the Property, the review of the proposed Total Defeasance Collateral and the preparation of the Security Agreement and related documentation; and (4) any revenue, documentary stamp, intangible or other taxes, charges or fees due in connection with the transfer or assumption of the Note and/or the Total Defeasance Event. | ||
(C) | Borrower shall deposit the Total Defeasance Collateral into the Defeasance Collateral Account and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 2.8(c) hereof; | ||
(D) | Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a Security Agreement in respect of the Defeasance Collateral Account and the Total Defeasance Collateral; | ||
(E) | Borrower shall deliver to Lender an opinion of counsel for Borrower that is standard in commercial lending transactions and subject only to customary qualifications, assumptions and exceptions opining, among other things, that (1) Lender has a legal and valid perfected first priority security interest in the Defeasance Collateral Account and the Total Defeasance Collateral; (2) if a Securitization has occurred (a) the REMIC Trust formed pursuant to such Securitization and/or any subsequent or prior Securitization of the Loan or any portion thereof or interest therein will each not fail to maintain their respective status as a “real estate |
21
mortgage investment conduit” within the meaning of Section 860D of the IRS Code as a result of a Total Defeasance Event pursuant to this Section 2.8 and (b) the Total Defeasance Event would not (x) constitute a “significant modification” of the Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-3 or (y) cause the Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the IRS Code; and (3) the Total Defeasance Event will not result in a deemed exchange for purposes of the IRS Code and will not adversely affect the status of the Note as indebtedness for federal income tax purposes; | |||
(F) | Borrower shall deliver to Lender a Rating Agency Confirmation as to the Total Defeasance Event; | ||
(G) | Borrower shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate certifying that the requirements set forth in this Section 2.8 have been satisfied; | ||
(H) | Borrower shall deliver a certificate of a “big four” or other nationally recognized public accounting firm acceptable to Lender certifying that the Total Defeasance Collateral will generate monthly amounts equal to or greater than the Scheduled Defeasance Payments; and | ||
(I) | Borrower shall deliver such other certificates, opinions, documents and instruments as Lender may reasonably request. |
(ii) If Borrower has elected to defease the Note and the requirements of this Section 2.8 have
been satisfied, the Property shall be released from the lien of the Security Instrument and the
Total Defeasance Collateral pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement shall be the sole source of
collateral securing the Note. In connection with the release of the lien, Borrower shall submit to
Lender, not less than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Total Defeasance Date (or such
shorter time as is acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion), (A) a release of lien (and related
Loan Documents) for execution by Lender, which release shall be in a form appropriate in the
jurisdiction in which the Property is located and shall contain standard provisions protecting the
rights of the releasing lender with respect to payment of the Debt, and (B) a release of the
Guaranty, except that (1) such release shall only be with respect to matters that solely arise from
and after the date of such Total Defeasance Event, and (2) there shall be no release of those
continuing obligations which expressly survive pursuant to the terms of the Guaranty, the
Environmental Indemnity and Section 11.2 and Articles 12 and 13 hereof. In addition, Borrower
shall provide all other documentation Lender reasonably requires to be delivered by Borrower in
connection with such release. Borrower shall pay all costs, taxes and expenses associated with the
release of the lien of the Security Instrument, including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees.
Except as set forth in this Article 2, no repayment, prepayment or defeasance of all or any portion
of the Note shall cause, give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the release of
the lien of the Security Instrument.
(b) Intentionally Omitted.
(c) On or before the date on which Borrower delivers the Total Defeasance Collateral, Borrower
or Successor Borrower (as applicable) shall open at any Eligible Institution
22
an Eligible Account (the “Defeasance Collateral Account”). The Defeasance Collateral Account
shall contain only (i) Total Defeasance Collateral and (ii) cash from interest and principal paid
on the Total Defeasance Collateral. All cash from interest and principal payments paid on the
Total Defeasance Collateral shall be paid over to Lender on each Monthly Payment Date and applied
first to accrued and unpaid interest and then to principal. Any cash from interest and principal
paid on the Total Defeasance Collateral not needed to pay the Scheduled Defeasance Payments shall
be paid to Borrower or Successor Borrower (as applicable). Borrower or Successor Borrower (as
applicable) shall cause the Eligible Institution at which the Total Defeasance Collateral is
deposited to enter into an agreement with Borrower or Successor Borrower (as applicable) and
Lender, satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion, pursuant to which such Eligible Institution
shall agree to hold and distribute the Total Defeasance Collateral in accordance with this
Agreement. Borrower or Successor Borrower (as applicable) shall be the owner of the Defeasance
Collateral Account and shall report all income accrued on Total Defeasance Collateral for federal,
state and local income tax purposes in its income tax return. Borrower shall prepay all cost and
expenses associated with opening and maintaining the Defeasance Collateral Account. Lender shall
not in any way be liable by reason of any insufficiency in the Defeasance Collateral Account.
(d) In connection with a Total Defeasance Event under this Section 2.8, Borrower shall
transfer and assign all obligations, rights and duties under and to the Note and the Security
Agreement, together with the Total Defeasance Collateral to a newly-created successor entity, which
entity shall be a Single Purpose Entity and which entity shall be designated or established by
Lender, at Lender’s option (the “Successor Borrower”). Lender shall also have the right to
purchase on behalf of Borrower, or cause to be purchased on behalf of Borrower, the pledged Total
Defeasance Collateral. Such rights to designate or establish the Successor Borrower as provided
above or to purchase, or cause the purchase of, on behalf of Borrower the pledged Total Defeasance
Collateral as provided above may be exercised by Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Xxxxx Fargo”) in its sole
discretion and shall be retained by Xxxxx Fargo as the original Lender herein (and any successor or
assign of Xxxxx Fargo under a specific assignment of such retained rights separate and apart from a
Secondary Market Transaction related to all or any portion of the Loan), notwithstanding any
Secondary Market Transaction related to all or any portion of the Loan. Such Successor Borrower
shall assume the obligations under the Note and the Security Agreement and Borrower shall be
relieved of its obligations under the Loan Documents (other than those obligations which by their
terms survive a repayment, defeasance or other satisfaction of the Loan and/or a transfer of the
Property in connection with Lender’s exercise of its remedies under the Loan Documents). Borrower
shall pay $1,000 to any such Successor Borrower as consideration for assuming the obligations under
the Note and the Security Agreement. Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred
by Lender, including the cost of establishing the Successor Borrower and Lender’s reasonable
attorney’s fees and expenses, incurred in connection therewith.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.8, the parties hereto
hereby acknowledge and agree that after the Securitization of the Loan (or any portion thereof or
interest therein), with respect to any Lender approval or similar discretionary rights over any
matters contained in this Section (any such matter, a “Defeasance Approval Item”), such rights
shall be construed such that Lender shall only be permitted to withhold its consent or approval
with respect to any Defeasance Approval Item if the same fails to meet the Prudent Lender Standard.
23
Section 2.9 Intentionally Omitted.
Section 2.10 Release.
Upon payment in full of the Debt, and satisfaction of all the covenants, warranties,
undertakings and agreements made in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without
limitation, repayment in full of the principal, interest and other amounts owing under the Note),
and all obligations, if any, of Lender for future advances have been terminated, then, and in that
event only, Lender shall release upon Borrower’s request and at Borrower’s cost and expense,
without representation or warranty, the Property or that portion thereof then held hereunder. The
recitals of any matters or facts in any release executed hereunder shall be conclusive proof of the
truthfulness thereof. To the extent permitted by law, the release may describe the grantee as “the
person or persons legally entitled thereto”. Lender shall not have any duty to determine the
rights of persons claiming to be rightful grantees of any release. When the Property has been
fully released, the last such release shall operate as a reassignment of all future rents, issues
and profits of the Property to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.

permit or suffer to exist any act or omission affording such right of forfeiture.
Section 3.21 Taxes. Borrower has filed all federal, state, county, municipal, and city
income, personal property and other tax returns required to have been filed by it and has paid all
taxes and related liabilities which have become due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any
assessments received by it. Borrower knows of no basis for any additional assessment in respect of
any such taxes and related liabilities for prior years.
Section 3.22 Permitted Encumbrances. To Borrower’s knowledge, none of the Permitted
Encumbrances, individually or in the aggregate, materially interferes with the benefits of the
security intended to be provided by this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other
Loan Documents, materially and adversely affects the value or marketability of the Property or any
portion thereof, materially and adversely impairs the use or the operation of the Property or
impairs Borrower’s ability to pay its obligations in a timely manner.
Section 3.23 Third Party Representations. Each of the representations and the warranties made
by Guarantor in the other Loan Documents (if any) are true, complete and correct in all material
respects.
Section 3.24 Intentionally Omitted.
Section 3.25 Federal Reserve Regulations. No part of the proceeds of the Loan will be used
for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose which would be
inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other Regulations of such Board of Governors, or for any
purposes prohibited by Applicable Law or by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the
Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents.
Section 3.26 Investment Company Act. Borrower is not (a) an “investment company” or a company
“controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended; (b) a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” or an
“affiliate” of either a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” within the meaning of the
Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended; or (c) subject to any other federal or
state law or regulation which purports to restrict or regulate its ability to borrow money.
Section 3.27 Fraudulent Conveyance. Borrower (a) has not entered into the Loan or any Loan
Document with the actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor and (b) received
reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents. Giving
effect to the Loan, the fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets exceeds and will, immediately
following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, exceed Borrower’s total liabilities,
including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed or contingent liabilities. The
fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets is and will, immediately following the execution and
delivery of the Loan Documents, be greater than Borrower’s probable liabilities, including the
maximum amount of its contingent liabilities or its debts as such debts become absolute and
matured. Borrower’s assets do not and, immediately following the execution and delivery of the
Loan Documents will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its
30
business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does
not believe that it will, incur debts and liabilities (including, without limitation, contingent
liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into
account the timing and amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower).
Section 3.28 Embargoed Person. To Borrower’s knowledge, as of the date hereof and at all
times throughout the term of the Loan, including after giving effect to any transfers of interests
permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents, (a) none of the funds or other assets of Borrower,
Operating Partnership or Guarantor constitute property of, or are beneficially owned, directly or
indirectly, by any person, entity or country which is a sanctioned person, entity or country under
U.S. law, including but not limited to, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C.
§§ 1701 et seq., The Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq., and any Executive Orders
or regulations promulgated thereunder (including regulations administered by the Office of Foreign
Assets Control (“OFAC”) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Specially Designated
Nationals List maintained by OFAC) with the result that the investment in Borrower and/or
Guarantor, as applicable (whether directly or indirectly), is prohibited by Applicable Law or the
Loan made by Lender is in violation of Applicable Law (“Embargoed Person”); (b) unless expressly
waived in writing by Lender, no Embargoed Person has any interest of any nature whatsoever in
Borrower, Operating Partnership or Guarantor, as applicable, with the result that the investment in
Borrower, Operating Partnership and/or Guarantor, as applicable (whether directly or indirectly),
is prohibited by Applicable Law or the Loan is in violation of Applicable Law; and (c) to the best
knowledge of Borrower, none of the funds of Borrower, Operating Partnership or Guarantor, as
applicable, have been derived from any unlawful activity with the result that the investment in
Borrower, Operating Partnership and/or Guarantor, as applicable (whether directly or indirectly),
is prohibited by Applicable Law or the Loan is in violation of Applicable Law. With respect to
parties owning direct or indirect interests in Operating Partnership or Guarantor, Lender
acknowledges that Borrower has relied exclusively on its U.S. broker-dealer network to implement
the normal and customary investor screening practices mandated by applicable law and FINRA
regulations in making the foregoing representation. Borrower covenants and agrees that in the
event Borrower receives any notice that Borrower, Operating Partnership or Guarantor (or any of
their respective beneficial owners, affiliates or participants) or any Person that has an interest
in the Property is designated as an Embargoed Person, Borrower shall immediately notify Lender in
writing. At Lender’s option, it shall be an Event of Default hereunder if Borrower, Guarantor,
Operating Partnership or any other party to the Loan (other than Lender, any Affiliate of Lender or
any party acting on behalf of Lender) is designated as an Embargoed Person.
Section 3.29 Patriot Act. All capitalized words and phrases and all defined terms used in the
USA Patriot Act of 2001, 107 Public Law 56 (October 26, 2001) and in other statutes and all orders,
rules and regulations of the United States government and its various executive departments,
agencies and offices related to the subject matter of the Patriot Act (collectively referred to in
this Section only as the “Patriot Act”) are incorporated into this Section. Borrower hereby
represents and warrants that Borrower, Operating Partnership and Guarantor and each and every
Person that is an Affiliate of Borrower, Operating Partnership and/or Guarantor is: (i) in full
compliance with all applicable requirements of the Patriot Act and any regulations issued
thereunder; (ii) operated under policies, procedures and practices, if applicable, that are in
compliance with the Patriot Act and available to Lender for Lender’s review and inspection during
normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice; (iii) not in
31
receipt of any notice from the Secretary of State or the Attorney General of the United States
or any other department, agency or office of the United States claiming a violation or possible
violation of the Patriot Act; (iv) not a person who has been determined by competent authority to
be subject to any of the prohibitions contained in the Patriot Act; and (v) not owned or controlled
by or now acting and or will in the future act for or on behalf of any person who has been
determined to be subject to the prohibitions contained in the Patriot Act. With respect to parties
owning direct or indirect interests in Operating Partnership or Guarantor, Lender acknowledges that
Borrower has relied exclusively on its U.S. broker-dealer network to implement the normal and
customary investor screening practices mandated by Applicable Law and FINRA regulations in making
the foregoing representation. Borrower covenants and agrees that in the event Borrower receives
any notice that Borrower, Operating Partnership or Guarantor (or any of their respective beneficial
owners, affiliates or participants) or any Person that has an interest in the Property is indicted,
arraigned, or custodially detained on charges involving money laundering or predicate crimes to
money laundering, Borrower shall immediately notify Lender. At Lender’s option, it shall be an
Event of Default hereunder if Borrower, Guarantor, Operating Partnership or any other party to the
Loan (other than Lender, any Affiliate of Lender or any party acting on behalf of Lender) is
indicted, arraigned or custodially detained on charges involving money laundering or predicate
crimes to money laundering.
Section 3.30 Organizational Chart. The organizational chart attached as Schedule III hereto,
relating to Borrower and certain Affiliates and other parties, is true, complete and correct on and
as of the date hereof.
Section 3.31 Bank Holding Company. Borrower is not a “bank holding company” or a direct or
indirect subsidiary of a “bank holding company” as defined in the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956,
as amended, and Regulation Y thereunder of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
Section 3.32 No Breach of Fiduciary Duty. No Person that is currently an Affiliate of
Borrower has breached any fiduciary duty owed by such Person to any other Person now or previously
an Affiliate of Borrower.
Section 3.33 Property Document Representations. To Borrower’s knowledge, each REA is in full
force and effect and neither Borrower nor, to Borrower’s knowledge, any other party to any REA, is
in material default thereunder, and to Borrower’s knowledge, there are no conditions which, with
the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default thereunder. To
Borrower’s knowledge, except as set forth on Schedule IV hereto, no REA has been modified, amended
or supplemented.
Section 3.34 No Change in Facts or Circumstances.
All information submitted by Borrower or Guarantor to Lender and in all financial statements,
rent rolls, reports, certificates and other documents submitted in connection with the Loan or in
satisfaction of the terms thereof and all statements of fact made by Borrower and/or Guarantor in
this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, are accurate, complete and correct in all material
respects. There has been no material adverse change in any condition, fact, circumstance or event
that would make any such information inaccurate, incomplete or otherwise misleading in any material
respect or that would otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect.
32
Section 3.35 Guarantor Representations. Borrower hereby represents and warrants that, as of
the date hereof and continuing thereafter for the term of the Loan, the representations and
warranties set forth in Sections 3.1 through 3.8, 3.12, 3.18, 3.21, 3.23, 3.27, 3.28, 3.29, 3.32,
and 3.34 above are true and correct with respect to Guarantor, as the same is applicable to
Guarantor. For such purpose, wherever the term “Borrower” is used in each of the foregoing
Subsections it shall be deemed to be “Guarantor”, with respect to such party.
Borrower agrees that, unless expressly provided otherwise, all of the representations and
warranties of Borrower set forth in this Article 3 and elsewhere in this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents shall survive for so long as any portion of the Debt remains owing to Lender. All
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made in this Agreement and in the other Loan
Documents shall be deemed to have been relied upon by Lender notwithstanding any investigation
heretofore or hereafter made by Lender or on its behalf.
ARTICLE 4
BORROWER COVENANTS
From the date hereof and until payment and performance in full of all obligations of Borrower
under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents or the earlier
release of the lien of the Security Instrument (and all related obligations) in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents, Borrower
hereby covenants and agrees with Lender that:
Section 4.1 Existence. Borrower will continuously maintain (a) its existence and shall not
dissolve or permit its dissolution, (b) its rights to do business in the applicable State, and (c)
its franchises and trade names, if any.
Section 4.2 Applicable Law.
(a) Borrower shall promptly comply and shall cause the Property to comply in all material
respects with all Applicable Law affecting the Borrower and the Property, or the use thereof,
including, without limitation, all Environmental Laws, and Applicable Law relating to OFAC,
Embargoed Persons and the Patriot Act.
(b) Borrower shall from time to time, upon Lender’s request, provide Lender with evidence
reasonably satisfactory to Lender that the Property complies with all Applicable Law or is exempt
from compliance with Applicable Law.
(c) Borrower shall give prompt notice to Lender of the receipt by Borrower of any notice
related to a violation of any Applicable Law and upon learning of the commencement of any
proceedings or investigations which relate to compliance with Applicable Law.
(d) After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by
appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due
diligence, the validity of any Applicable Law, the applicability of any Applicable Law to Borrower
or the Property or any alleged violation of any Applicable Law, provided that (i) no Event of
Default has occurred and remains uncured; (ii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be
conducted in accordance with the provisions of any instrument to which Borrower
33
is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be
permitted by and conducted in accordance with all Applicable Law; (iii) neither the Property nor
any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated,
cancelled or lost; (iv) Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof comply with any
such Applicable Law determined to be valid or applicable or cure any violation of any Applicable
Law; (v) such proceeding shall suspend the enforcement of the contested Applicable Law against
Borrower or the Property; and (vi) Borrower shall furnish such security as may be required in the
proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested by Lender, to insure compliance with such Applicable
Law, together with all interest and penalties payable in connection therewith. Lender may apply
any such security or part thereof, as necessary to cause compliance with such Applicable Law at any
time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the validity, applicability or violation of such
Applicable Law is finally established or the Property (or any part thereof or interest therein)
shall be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2(d), to the extent any Lease with
a Tenant remains in effect and such Tenant remains liable for the obligations under its Lease, such
Tenant shall have the right to exercise any contest rights explicitly set forth in such Lease in
accordance with the express terms thereof and, to the extent such rights conflict or are
inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 4.2(d), the provisions set forth in such Lease
shall govern and control. Borrower agrees to notify Lender in writing in the event that a Tenant
under any Lease exercises its right to contest thereunder and agrees to deliver to Lender any
correspondence received or delivered by Borrower pursuant to such Lease as it relates to such
Tenant’s right to contest.
Section 4.3 Maintenance and Use of Property. Borrower shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause the Property to be maintained in a good and safe condition and repair. The
Improvements and the Personal Property shall not be removed, demolished or altered (except for
normal replacement of the Personal Property or as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 4.21
hereof) without the consent of Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed. Subject to the terms and conditions of, and the rights of Tenants under the Leases,
Borrower shall promptly repair, replace or rebuild any part of the Property which may be destroyed
by any casualty, or become damaged, worn or dilapidated or which may be affected by any proceeding
of the character referred to in Section 3.13 hereof and shall complete and pay for any structure at
any time in the process of construction or repair on the Land. Without the consent of Lender, not
to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Borrower shall not initiate, join in,
acquiesce in, or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant, zoning law or other
public or private restriction, limiting or defining the uses which may be made of the Property or
any part thereof. If under applicable zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of the
Property is or shall become a nonconforming use, Borrower will not cause or permit the
nonconforming use to be discontinued or the nonconforming Improvement to be abandoned without the
express written consent of Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
Section 4.4 Waste. Borrower shall not, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause
each Tenant occupying the Property (or any portion thereof) to not, commit or suffer any waste of
the Property or make any change in the use of the Property which will in any way materially
increase the risk of fire or other hazard arising out of the operation of the Property, or take any
action that might invalidate or give cause for cancellation of any Policy, or do or permit
34
to be done thereon anything that may in any way impair the value of the Property or the
security for the Loan. Borrower will not, without the prior written consent of Lender, permit any
drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal, or production of any minerals from the surface
or the subsurface of the Property, regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or
extraction thereof.
Section 4.5 Taxes and Other Charges.
(a) Borrower shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Taxes and Other Charges now or hereafter
levied or assessed or imposed against the Property or any part thereof prior to delinquency.
Borrower shall furnish to Lender receipts for the payment of the Taxes and the Other Charges or
other evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Taxes and Other Charges have been so paid or are not
then delinquent no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which the Taxes and/or
Other Charges would otherwise be delinquent if not paid (provided, however, that if the Tenant
under a Lease is required to pay such Taxes or Other Charges directly to the applicable
Governmental Authority and Borrower timely requests and diligently pursues evidence of such
payment, and further provided that no enforcement action has been commenced by the applicable
Governmental Authority resulting from Tenant’s failure to pay Taxes or Other Charges, then Borrower
shall have an additional thirty (30) day period to provide such evidence to Lender). Borrower
shall not suffer any lien or charge whatsoever which may be or become a lien or charge against the
Property (or any portion thereof), other than Permitted Encumbrances. Borrower shall promptly
cause to be paid and discharged any lien or charge whatsoever which may be or become a lien or
charge against the Property (or any portion thereof), and shall promptly pay, or cause to be paid,
for all utility services provided to the Property (or any portion thereof).
(b) After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by
appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due
diligence, the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of any Taxes or Other Charges,
provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured; (ii) such proceeding shall
be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any other instrument to
which Borrower is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall
be permitted by and conducted in accordance with all Applicable Law; (iii) neither the Property nor
any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated,
canceled or lost; (iv) Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof pay the amount of
any such Taxes or Other Charges, together with all costs, interest and penalties which may be
payable in connection therewith; (v) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of such contested
Taxes or Other Charges from the Property; and (vi) Borrower shall furnish such security as may be
reasonably required in the proceeding, or deliver to Lender such reserve deposits as may be
reasonably requested by Lender, to insure the payment of any such Taxes or Other Charges, together
with all interest and penalties thereon. Lender may pay over any such cash deposit or part thereof
held by Lender to the claimant entitled thereto at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of
Lender, the entitlement of such claimant is established or the Property (or part thereof or
interest therein) shall be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, canceled or lost or
there shall be any danger of the lien of the Security Instrument being primed by any related lien.
35
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(b), to the extent the Lease with
a Tenant remains in effect and such Tenant remains liable for the obligations under its Lease, such
Tenant shall have the right to exercise any contest rights explicitly set forth in such Lease in
accordance with the express terms thereof and, to the extent such rights conflict or are
inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 4.5(b), the provisions set forth in such Lease
shall govern and control. Borrower agrees to notify Lender in writing in the event that a Tenant
under any Lease exercises its right to contest thereunder and agrees to deliver to Lender any
correspondence received or delivered by Borrower pursuant to such Lease as it relates to such
Tenant’s right to contest.
Section 4.6 Litigation. Borrower shall give prompt written notice to Lender upon learning of
any litigation or governmental proceedings pending or threatened in writing against Borrower, any
Tenant or the Property, which might have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 4.7 Access to Property. Subject to the terms and conditions of, and the rights of
Tenants under the Leases, Borrower shall permit agents, representatives and employees of Lender to
inspect the Property or any part thereof at reasonable hours upon reasonable advance notice. Any
such inspection shall be at the expense of Lender unless an Event of Default is continuing, in
which event, the cost of such inspection shall be paid by Borrower.
Section 4.8 Notice of Default. Borrower shall promptly advise Lender of any material adverse
change in Borrower’s and/or Guarantor’s condition (financial or otherwise) or of the occurrence of
any Default or Event of Default of which Borrower has knowledge.
Section 4.9 Cooperate in Legal Proceedings. Except with respect to any claim by Borrower
against Lender, Borrower shall cooperate fully with Lender with respect to any proceedings before
any court, board or other Governmental Authority which may in any way affect the rights of Lender
hereunder or any rights obtained by Lender under any of the Note, the Security Instrument or the
other Loan Documents and, in connection therewith, permit Lender, at Lender’s election, to
participate in any such proceedings.
Section 4.10 Performance by Borrower. Borrower shall in a timely manner observe, perform and
fulfill, in all material respects, each and every covenant, term and provision to be observed and
performed by Borrower under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan
Documents and any other agreement or instrument affecting or pertaining to the Property and any
amendments, modifications of changes thereto.
Section 4.11 Awards. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Leases, Borrower shall
cooperate with Lender in obtaining for Lender the benefits of any Awards or Insurance Proceeds
lawfully or equitably payable to Borrower in connection with the Property, and Lender shall be
reimbursed for any reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable,
actual attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and the payment by Lender of the actual expense of an
appraisal on behalf of Borrower in case of a Casualty or Condemnation affecting the Property or any
part thereof) out of such Awards or Insurance Proceeds.
Section 4.12 Books and Records.
36
(a) Borrower shall keep adequate books and records of account in accordance with GAAP (or such
other basis of accounting acceptable to Lender in its reasonable discretion and consistently
applied), and furnish to Lender:
(i) quarterly (and prior to a Securitization, monthly, except for the last month of a quarter)
certified rent rolls (in the form approved by Lender in connection with the closing of the Loan)
and tenant sales reports (if applicable), each signed and dated by a Responsible Officer of
Borrower, within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month (except for the last month
of a quarter) or forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter, as applicable;
(ii) quarterly (and prior to a Securitization, monthly, except for the last month of a
quarter) operating statements of the Property, prepared and certified by a Responsible Officer of
Borrower in the form reasonably required by Lender, detailing the revenues received, the expenses
incurred and the components of Underwritable Cash Flow before and after Debt Service for the period
of calculation and containing appropriate year-to-date information, within thirty (30) days after
the end of each calendar month (except for the last month of a quarter) or forty-five (45) days
after the end of each calendar quarter, as applicable;
(iii) an annual balance sheet, profit and loss statement, statement of cash flow, and
statement of change in financial position of Borrower, prepared and certified by a Responsible
Officer of Borrower within ninety (90) days after the close of each fiscal year of Borrower;
(iv) an annual operating statement of the Property certified by a Responsible Officer of
Borrower in the form reasonably required by Lender, detailing the revenues received, the expenses
incurred and the components of Underwritable Cash Flow before and after Debt Service for the period
of calculation and containing appropriate year-to-date information, within ninety (90) days after
the close of each fiscal year of Borrower;
(v) by no later than January 15 of each calendar year, an annual operating budget for such
calendar year presented on a monthly basis consistent with the annual operating statement described
above for the Property, including cash flow projections for the upcoming year and all proposed
capital replacements and improvements, which such budget shall not take effect until approved by
Lender (each such annual budget, individually and/or collectively (as the context may require), an
“Annual Budget”). Lender’s failure to approve such Annual Budget within thirty (30) days after
Lender’s receipt of an Annual Budget shall be deemed to constitute Lender’s approval of such Annual
Budget, provided that said written request to Lender conspicuously states in 12 point or larger
bold type “PURSUANT TO SECTION 4.12(a)(v) OF THE LOAN AGREEMENT, BORROWER’S REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF
THE ANNUAL BUDGET SHALL BE DEEMED APPROVED IF LENDER DOES NOT DECLINE APPROVAL IN WRITING OR
REQUEST ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IN WRITING WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF THIS LETTER.”;

(vii) [intentionally omitted]; and
(viii) the Officer’s Certificate required pursuant to Section 5.3 hereof.
37

(i) a property management report for the Property, showing deposits received from tenants and
any other information requested by Lender, in reasonable detail and certified by a Responsible
Officer of Borrower to be true and complete, but no more frequently than quarterly; and
(ii) an accounting of all security deposits held in connection with any Lease of any part of
the Property, including the name and identification number of the accounts in which such security
deposits are held, the name and address of the financial institutions in which such security
deposits are held and the name of the person to contact at such financial institution, along with
any authority or release necessary for Lender to obtain information regarding such accounts
directly from such financial institutions.
(c) Within ten (10) Business Days of Lender’s request, Borrower shall furnish Lender (and
shall cause Guarantor to furnish to Lender) with such other additional financial or management
information (including State and Federal tax returns) as may, from time to time, be reasonably
required by Lender in form and substance satisfactory to Lender. Borrower shall furnish to Lender
and its agents convenient facilities for the examination and audit of any such books and records at
any reasonable time from time to time during business hours upon reasonable advance notice.
(d) Borrower agrees that all Required Financial Items (defined below) to be delivered to
Lender pursuant to this Section 4.12 shall: (i) be complete and correct in all material respects;
(ii) present fairly the financial condition of the party as of the applicable date of such
certification; (iii) disclose all liabilities that are required to be reflected or reserved
against; and (iv) be prepared (A) in electronic formats, and if requested by Lender, also delivered
in hardcopy form, and (B) in accordance with GAAP (or such other basis of accounting acceptable to
Lender and consistently applied). Borrower shall be deemed to warrant and represent that, as of the
date of delivery of any such financial statement, there has been no material adverse change in
financial condition, nor have any assets or properties been sold, transferred, assigned, mortgaged,
pledged or encumbered since the date of such financial statement except as disclosed by Borrower in
a writing delivered to Lender. Borrower agrees that all Required Financial Items shall not contain
any misrepresentation or omission of a material fact.
(e) Borrower acknowledges the importance to Lender of the timely delivery of each of the items
required by this Section 4.12 (each, a “Required Financial Item” and, collectively, the “Required
Financial Items”). In the event Borrower fails to deliver to Lender any of the Required Financial
Items within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s delivery of notice to Borrower of Borrower’s
failure to deliver the Required Financial Items (each such event, a “Reporting Failure”), in
addition to constituting an Event of Default hereunder and without limiting Lender’s other rights
and remedies with respect to the occurrence of such an Event of Default, Borrower shall pay upon
demand to Lender the sum of $1,000.00 per occurrence for each Reporting Failure. It shall
constitute a further Event of Default hereunder if any such payment is not received by Lender
within thirty (30) days of the date on which such payment is so demanded and Lender shall be
entitled to the exercise of all of its rights and remedies provided hereunder.
38
Section 4.13 Estoppel Certificates.
(a) After request by Lender, Borrower, within ten (10) Business Days of such request, shall
furnish Lender or any proposed assignee with a statement, duly acknowledged and certified, setting
forth (i) the original principal amount of the Note, (ii) the unpaid principal amount of the Note,

not been modified or if modified, giving particulars of such modification, (viii) whether any

Borrower’s knowledge after due inquiry of the Manager, any of the lessees under the Leases are in
default under the Leases, and, if any of the lessees are in default, setting forth the specific
nature of all such defaults, (xii) the amount of security deposits held by Borrower under each
Lease and that such amounts are consistent with the amounts required under each Lease, and (xiii)
as to any other matters reasonably requested by Lender and reasonably related to the Leases, the
obligations created and evidenced hereby and by the Security Instrument or the Property. It being
understood that Lender shall not exercise its right pursuant to this subsection, more than two (2)
times during each calendar year unless there is an Event of Default.
(b) Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Lender, promptly upon
request, duly executed estoppel certificates from any one or more Tenants as required by Lender
attesting to such facts regarding the Lease as Lender may require, including, but not limited to,
attestations that each Lease covered thereby is in full force and effect with no defaults
thereunder on the part of any party, that none of the Rents have been paid more than one month in
advance, except as security, and that the lessee claims no defense or offset against the full and
timely performance of its obligations under the Lease. It being understood that, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this subsection (b), (1) to the extent that a particular Lease provides
for a specific form of estoppel or limits the matters to which a particular Tenant is required to
certify, Lender shall accept such estoppel set forth in or contemplated by the Lease to satisfy
this subsection (b) and (2) Lender shall not exercise its right, pursuant to this subsection, more
than two (2) times during each calendar year unless there is an Event of Default.
(c) In connection with the Securitization of the Loan (or any portion thereof or interest
therein), at Lender’s request, Borrower shall provide an estoppel certificate to any Investor or
any prospective Investor in such form, substance and detail as Lender, such Investor or prospective
Investor may reasonably require.

estoppel certificates from each party under the Property Documents in form and substance reasonably
acceptable to Lender. It being understood that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
subsection (d), (1) to the extent that a particular Property Document provides for a specific form
of estoppel, Lender shall accept such estoppel to satisfy this
39
subsection (d) and (2) Lender shall not exercise its right, pursuant to this subsection, more
than two (2) times during each calendar year unless there is an Event of Default.
Section 4.14 Leases and Rents.
(a) All Leases and renewals of Leases (provided, however, that any renewal of existing Leases
shall be subject to the terms of such Lease) executed after the date hereof shall (i) provide for
rental rates reasonably comparable to existing local market rates for similar properties, (ii) be
on commercially reasonable terms with unaffiliated, third parties (unless otherwise consented to by
Lender), (iii) provide that such Lease is subordinate to the Security Instrument and that the
lessee will attorn to Lender and any purchaser at a foreclosure sale, (iv) not contain any terms
which would have a Material Adverse Effect and (v) with respect to any Major Lease, shall be
subject to Lender’s prior written approval as provided herein. Borrower shall not, without the
prior written consent of Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed, enter into, enter into any agreement with respect to (including, without limitation, any
non-disturbance agreement), renew, extend, amend, modify, permit any assignment of, waive any
provisions of, release any party to, terminate, exercise any recapture rights with respect to,
reduce rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of, in each case, any
Major Lease; provided, however, that (x) such consent shall not be required to the extent that the
Major Lease provides for an extension or renewal that may be exercised in the Tenant’s discretion,
and (y) Lender hereby consents to the Fifth Amendment to Lease. Lender shall execute and deliver a
Subordination Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement on Lender’s then current standard form (or
such other reasonable form requested by such Tenants and reasonably approved by Lender) to Tenants
under future Major Leases approved by Lender (as set forth above) promptly upon request with such
commercially reasonable changes as may be requested by Tenants, from time to time, as are
reasonably acceptable to Lender.
(b) Borrower (i) shall observe and perform in all material respects, the obligations imposed
upon the lessor under the Leases in a commercially reasonable manner; (ii) shall enforce the terms,
covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of the lessee thereunder to be
observed or performed in a commercially reasonable manner, provided, however, (A) Borrower shall
deliver written notice of Borrower’s anticipated enforcement action with respect to any Major Lease
not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the taking of such enforcement action, and (B)
Borrower shall not terminate or accept a surrender of a Major Lease without Lender’s prior
approval, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iii) shall not
collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in advance (other than security deposits); (iv)
shall not execute any assignment of lessor’s interest in the Leases or the Rents (except as
contemplated by the Loan Documents); and (v) shall hold all security deposits under all Leases in
accordance with Applicable Law. Upon request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with executed copies
of all Leases.
(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not willfully
withhold from Lender any information regarding renewal, extension, amendment, modification, waiver
of provisions of, termination, rental reduction of, surrender of space of, or shortening of the
term of, any Major Lease during the term of the Loan. Borrower further agrees to provide Lender
with written notice of a Tenant “going dark” under such Tenant’s Lease within five (5) Business
Days after Borrower learns that such Tenant “goes dark”.
40
(d) Borrower shall notify Lender in writing, within two (2) Business Days following receipt
thereof, of Borrower’s receipt of any termination fee or payment (“Lease Event Payment”) paid by
any Tenant under any Lease in consideration of any termination, modification or amendment or
settlement of any Lease or any release or discharge of any Tenant under any Lease from any
obligation thereunder (a “Lease Event”). Borrower further covenants and agrees that (i) except as
provided in clause (ii)(A) below, Borrower shall hold any such Lease Event Payment in trust for the
benefit of Lender and (ii) (A) in the event such Lease Event Payment is less than $50,000, such
Lease Event Payment shall be payable to Borrower or (B) in the event such Lease Event Payment
equals or exceeds $50,000, such Lease Event Payment shall be placed by Borrower in reserve with
Lender, to be disbursed by Lender for tenant improvement and leasing commission costs with respect
to the Property and/or for payment of the Debt (without any Yield Maintenance Premium being due in
connection therewith) or otherwise in connection with the Loan and/or the Property, as so
determined by Lender, in its sole discretion.
(e) If Borrower shall materially default in the performance or observance of any term,
covenant or condition of any Lease and shall fail to cure the same prior to the expiration of any
applicable cure period provided thereunder, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no
obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to
cause all of the terms, covenants and conditions of such Lease on the part of Borrower to be
performed or observed on behalf of Borrower, to the end that the rights of Borrower in, to and
under such Lease shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. If any party to any Lease shall
deliver to Lender a copy of any notice of default under such Lease, such notice shall constitute
full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender, in good faith, in
reliance thereon.
Section 4.15 Management Agreement.
(a) Borrower shall (i) diligently perform, observe and enforce all of the terms, covenants and
conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed, observed and
enforced to the end that all things shall be done which are necessary to keep unimpaired the rights
of Borrower under the Management Agreement and (ii) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any
notice to Borrower of any default by Borrower in the performance or observance of any of the terms,
covenants or conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed and
observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice. Without Lender’s prior written
consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Borrower shall not
surrender the Management Agreement, consent to the assignment by Manager of its interest under the
Management Agreement, or terminate or cancel the Management Agreement, or modify, change,
supplement, alter or amend the Management Agreement, in any respect, either orally or in writing,
and Borrower hereby assigns to Lender as further security for the payment of the Debt and for the
performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement, all the
rights, privileges and prerogatives of Borrower to surrender the Management Agreement or to
terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Management Agreement in any
respect, and any such surrender of the Management Agreement or termination, cancellation,
modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of the Management Agreement without the
consents required pursuant to this Section 4.15(a) shall be void and of no force and effect;
provided that, Borrower shall not be required to obtain Lender’s consent with respect to any
non-material changes, supplements, alterations or amendments to the Management
41
Agreement. If Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any material term,
covenant or condition of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed or
observed, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, and
without waiving or releasing Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, Lender shall have the
right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action
as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement
on the part of Borrower to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf
of Borrower, to the end that the rights of Borrower in, to and under the Management Agreement shall
be kept unimpaired and free from default. Lender and any person designated by Lender shall have,
and are hereby granted, subject to the terms and conditions of, and the rights of Tenants under the
Leases, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time for the purpose of
taking any such action. If Manager shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice sent to Borrower
of default under the Management Agreement, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender
for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender in good faith, in reliance thereon. Borrower
shall notify Lender if Manager sub-contracts to a third party or an affiliate any or all of its
management responsibilities under the Management Agreement. Borrower shall, from time to time, use
its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from Manager under the Management Agreement such
certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Borrower with the terms of the Management
Agreement as may be reasonably requested by Lender. Borrower shall exercise each individual
option, if any, to extend or renew the term of the Management Agreement upon demand by Lender made
at any time within one (1) year of the last day upon which any such option may be exercised, and,
should Borrower so fail to exercise such option, Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints
Lender its attorney-in-fact to exercise any such option in the name of and upon behalf of Borrower,
which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest.
Any sums expended by Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall bear interest at the Interest Rate
from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall be deemed to constitute
a portion of the Debt, shall be secured by the lien of the Security Instrument and the other Loan
Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor.
(b) Without limitation of the foregoing, if the Management Agreement is terminated pursuant to
the Assignment of Management Agreement or for any other reason, then Lender, at its option, may
require Borrower to engage, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Assignment
of Management Agreement, a new manager (the “New Manager”) to manage the Property, which such New
Manager shall be a Qualified Manager. New Manager shall be engaged by Borrower pursuant to a
written management agreement that complies with the terms hereof and of the Assignment of
Management Agreement and is otherwise satisfactory to Lender in all respects. New Manager and
Borrower shall execute an Assignment of Management Agreement in the form then used by Lender.
Without limitation of the foregoing, if required by Lender, Borrower shall, as a condition
precedent to Borrower’s engagement of such New Manager, obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation with
respect to such New Manager and new management agreement.
(c) The parties hereto agree that, from and after the effective date of the Prime Management
Agreement, Xxxx Realty Advisors, Inc. shall be an Affiliated Manager. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary set forth in Section 4.15(a) above, Borrower may, without Lender’s consent, terminate
the Management Agreement provided the Property remains managed at all times by a Qualified Manager
and the provisions of Section 4.15(b) are otherwise
42
satisfied. Further, from and after the effective date of the Prime Management Agreement, in
the event that Xxxx Realty Advisors, Inc. is no longer an Affiliated Manager, then Borrower and/or
Guarantor shall replace Manager with a Qualified Manager and otherwise satisfy the provisions of
Section 4.15(b).
Section 4.16 Payment for Labor and Materials.
(a) Subject to Section 4.16(b), Borrower will promptly pay, or cause to be paid pursuant to
the terms of any applicable Lease, when due all bills and costs for labor, materials, and
specifically fabricated materials incurred by Borrower in connection with the Property (any such
bills and costs, a “Work Charge”) and never permit to exist in respect of the Property or any part
thereof any lien or security interest, even though inferior to the liens and the security interests
hereof, and in any event never permit to be created or exist in respect of the Property or any part
thereof any other or additional lien or security interest other than the liens or security
interests created hereby and by the Security Instrument, except for the Permitted Encumbrances.
(b) After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by
appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due
diligence, the validity of any Work Charge, the applicability of any Work Charge to Borrower or to
the Property or any alleged non-payment of any Work Charge and defer paying the same, provided that
(i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) such proceeding shall be permitted
under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any instrument to which Borrower is
subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be conducted in
accordance with all Applicable Law; (iii) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest
therein will be in imminent and/or present danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled
or lost; (iv) Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof pay (or cause to be paid)
any such contested Work Charge determined to be valid, applicable or unpaid; (v) such proceeding
shall suspend the collection of such contested Work Charge from the Property or Borrower shall have
paid the same (or shall have caused the same to be paid) under protest; and (vi) Borrower shall
furnish (or cause to be furnished) such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be
reasonably requested by Lender, to insure payment of such Work Charge, together with all interest
and penalties payable in connection therewith. Lender may apply any such security or part thereof,
as necessary to pay for such Work Charge at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender,
the validity, applicability or non-payment of such Work Charge is finally established or the
Property (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in imminent and/or present danger of
being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.16(b), to the extent the Lease with
a Tenant remains in effect and such Tenant remains liable for the obligations under its Lease, such
Tenant shall have the right to exercise any contest rights explicitly set forth in such Lease in
accordance with the express terms thereof and, to the extent such rights conflict or are
inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 4.16(b), the provisions set forth in such Lease
shall govern and control. Borrower agrees to notify Lender in writing in the event that a Tenant
under any Lease exercises its right to contest thereunder and agrees to deliver to Lender any
correspondence received or delivered by Borrower pursuant to such Lease as it relates to such
Tenant’s right to contest.
43
Section 4.17 Performance of Other Agreements. Borrower shall observe and perform in all
material respects each and every term to be observed or performed by Borrower pursuant to the terms
of any agreement or recorded instrument affecting or pertaining to the Property, or given by
Borrower to Lender for the purpose of further securing the Debt and any amendments, modifications
or changes thereto.
Section 4.18 Debt Cancellation. Borrower shall not cancel or otherwise forgive or release any
material claim or debt (other than termination of Leases in accordance herewith) owed to Borrower
by any Person, except for adequate consideration and in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business.
Section 4.19 ERISA
(a) Borrower shall not engage in any transaction which would cause any obligation, or action
taken or to be taken, hereunder (or the exercise by Lender of any of its rights hereunder or under
the other Loan Documents) to be a non-exempt (under a statutory or administrative class exemption)
prohibited transaction under ERISA.
(b) Borrower further covenants and agrees to deliver to Lender such certifications or other
evidence from time to time throughout the term of the Loan as requested by Lender in its reasonable
discretion, that (i) Borrower is not an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of
ERISA, or other retirement arrangement, which is subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the
IRS Code, or a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA; (ii) Borrower is
not subject to state statutes regulating investments and fiduciary obligations with respect to
governmental plans; and (iii) one or more of the following circumstances is true:
(A) | Equity interests in Borrower are publicly offered securities, within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3 101(b)(2); | ||
(B) | Less than 25 percent of each outstanding class of equity interests in Borrower are held by “benefit plan investors” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R.§ 2510.3 101(f)(2), as modified by § 3(42) of ERISA, disregarding the value of any equity interests in Borrower held by (I) a Person (other than a benefit plan investor) who has discretionary authority or control with respect to the assets of Borrower, (II) any Person who provides investment advice for a fee (direct or indirect) with respect to the assets of Borrower, or (III) any affiliate of a Person described in the immediately preceding clause (I) or (II); | ||
(C) | Borrower qualifies as an “operating company” or a “real estate operating company” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R § 2510.3 101(c) or (e) or an investment company registered under The Investment Company Act of 1940; or | ||
(D) | The assets of Borrower are not otherwise “plan assets” of one or more “employee benefit plans” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) subject to Title I of ERISA, within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101. |
44
Section 4.20 No Joint Assessment. Borrower shall not suffer, permit or initiate the joint
assessment of the Property with (a) any other real property constituting a tax lot separate from
the Property, or (b) any portion of the Property which may be deemed to constitute personal
property, or any other procedure whereby the lien of any taxes which may be levied against such
personal property shall be assessed or levied or charged to the real property portion of the
Property.
Section 4.21 Alterations. Lender’s prior approval shall be required in connection with any
alterations to any Improvements (a) that may have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) the cost of which
(including any related alteration, improvement or replacement) is reasonably anticipated to exceed
the Alteration Threshold or (c) that are structural in nature; provided, however, that with respect
to items (a) and (b) above, such approval may be granted or withheld in Lender’s reasonable
discretion, and with respect to item (c) above, such approval may be granted or withheld in
Lender’s sole discretion. If the total unpaid amounts incurred and to be incurred with respect to
any alterations to the Improvements shall at any time exceed the Alteration Threshold, Borrower
shall promptly deliver to Lender as security for the payment of such amounts (the “Alteration
Security”) and as additional security for Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents any of
the following as determined by Borrower: (i) cash, (ii) U.S. Obligations, (iii) other securities
acceptable to Lender, (provided that Lender shall have received a Rating Agency Confirmation as to
the form and issuer of same), or (iv) a completion bond (provided that Lender shall have received a
Rating Agency Confirmation as to the form and issuer of same). Such security shall be in an amount
equal to the excess of the total unpaid amounts incurred and to be incurred with respect to such
alterations to the Improvements over the Alteration Threshold. Notwithstanding the immediately
preceding sentence to the contrary, in the event a Lease permits the Tenant thereunder to perform
alterations without Borrower’s consent or approval (or if the Tenant has obtained such consent or
approval from Borrower prior to the Closing Date and Borrower has advised Lender in writing of such
approval) and without any requirement to deliver any Alteration Security as required hereunder, and
such Tenant maintains a long term unsecured debt rating of “BBB-” or better by S&P (or an
equivalent rating by the other Rating Agencies), then such Alteration Security shall not be
required hereunder. All alterations by Borrower to any Improvements shall be made lien-free and in
a good and workmanlike manner in accordance with all Applicable Laws.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.21, (i) Lender hereby approves the
alterations contemplated by the Fifth Amendment to Lease, provided same are completed in accordance
with the terms and conditions thereof, and (ii) to the extent the Lease with a Tenant remains in
effect and such Tenant remains liable for the obligations under its Lease, such Tenant shall have
the right to perform any alterations explicitly set forth in such Lease (which do not require
Borrower’s consent or for which such consent was obtained from Borrower prior to the Closing Date
and Borrower has advised Lender in writing of such consent) in accordance with the express terms
thereof and, to the extent such rights conflict or are inconsistent with the provisions of this
Section 4.21, the provisions set forth in such Lease shall govern and control.
Section 4.22 REA Covenants. Borrower agrees that without the prior consent of Lender, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Borrower will not enter into
any new Property Document or execute modifications to any existing Property Document if such new
Property Document or such modifications will have a Material Adverse
45
Effect. Borrower shall enforce, shall comply with, and shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause each of the parties to each Property Document to comply with all of the terms and
conditions contained in such Property Document in all material respects.

47
(b) If Borrower is a limited partnership or a limited liability company (other than an
Acceptable Delaware LLC), each general partner or managing member (each, an “SPE Component Entity”)
shall be a corporation or an Acceptable Delaware LLC (I) whose sole asset is its interest in
Borrower; (II) which has not been and shall not be permitted to engage in any business or activity
other than owning an interest in Borrower; (III) which has not been and shall not be permitted to
incur any debt, secured or unsecured, direct or contingent (including guaranteeing any obligation)
separate and apart from debt of Borrower solely in its capacity as general partner of Borrower; and
(IV) which has and will at all times own at least a 0.5% direct equity ownership interest in
Borrower (or a 0.1% direct equity ownership interest if Borrower is a Delaware limited
partnership). Each such SPE Component Entity will at all times comply, and will cause Borrower to
comply, with each of the representations, warranties, and covenants contained in this Article 5 (to
the extent applicable) as if such representation, warranty or covenant was made directly by such
SPE Component Entity. Upon the withdrawal or the disassociation of an SPE Component Entity from
Borrower, Borrower shall immediately appoint a new SPE Component Entity whose articles of
incorporation or organization are substantially similar to those of such SPE Component Entity.
(c) In the event Borrower or the SPE Component Entity is an Acceptable Delaware LLC, the
limited liability company agreement of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) (the
“LLC Agreement”) shall provide that (i) upon the occurrence of any event that causes the last
remaining member of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) (“Member”) to cease to be
the member of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) (other than (A) upon an
assignment by Member of all of its limited liability company interest in Borrower or the SPE
Component Entity (as applicable) and the admission of the transferee in accordance with the Loan

and simultaneously with the Member ceasing to be the member of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity
(as applicable) automatically be admitted to Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable)
as a member with a 0% economic interest (“Special Member”) and shall continue Borrower or the SPE
Component Entity (as applicable) without dissolution and (ii) Special Member may not resign from
Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) or transfer its rights as Special Member
unless (A) a successor Special Member has been admitted to Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as
applicable) as a Special Member in accordance with requirements of Delaware law and (B) after
giving effect to such resignation or transfer, there remains at least one (1) Independent Director
of the SPE Component Entity or Borrower (as applicable) in accordance with Section 5.2 below. The
LLC Agreement shall further provide that (i) Special Member shall automatically cease to be a
member of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) upon the admission to Borrower or
the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) of the first substitute member, (ii) Special Member shall
be a member of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) that has no interest in the
profits, losses and capital of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) and has no
right to receive any distributions of the assets of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as
applicable), (iii) pursuant to the applicable provisions of the limited liability company act of
the State of Delaware (the “Act”), Special Member shall not be required to make any capital
contributions to Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) and shall not receive a
limited liability
48
company interest in Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable), (iv) Special Member,
in its capacity as Special Member, may not bind Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as
applicable) and (v) except as required by any mandatory provision of the Act, Special Member, in
its capacity as Special Member, shall have no right to vote on, approve or otherwise consent to any
action by, or matter relating to, Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) including,
without limitation, the merger, consolidation or conversion of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity
(as applicable). In order to implement the admission to Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as
applicable) of Special Member, Special Member shall execute a counterpart to the LLC Agreement.
Prior to its admission to Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) as Special Member,
Special Member shall not be a member of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable).
(d) The LLC Agreement shall further provide that, (i) upon the occurrence of any event that
causes the Member to cease to be a member of Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable)
to the fullest extent permitted by law, the personal representative of Member shall, within ninety
(90) days after the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of Member in
Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) agree in writing (A) to continue Borrower or
the SPE Component Entity (as applicable) and (B) to the admission of the personal representative or
its nominee or designee, as the case may be, as a substitute member of Borrower or the SPE
Component Entity (as applicable) effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the
continued membership of Member in Borrower or the SPE Component Entity (as applicable), (ii) any
action initiated by or brought against Member or Special Member under any Creditors Rights Laws
shall not cause Member or Special Member to cease to be a member of Borrower or the SPE Component
Entity (as applicable) and upon the occurrence of such an event, the business of Borrower or the
SPE Component Entity (as applicable) shall continue without dissolution, and (iii) each of Member
and Special Member waives any right it might have to agree in writing to dissolve Borrower or the
SPE Component Entity (as applicable) upon the occurrence of any action initiated by or brought
against Member or Special Member under any Creditors Rights Laws, or the occurrence of an event
that causes Member or Special Member to cease to be a member of Borrower or the SPE Component
Entity (as applicable).

Acceptable Delaware LLC) or the SPE Component Entity, as applicable, shall provide that at all
times there shall be at least one duly appointed independent directors of such entity (each, an
“Independent Director”) reasonably satisfactory to Lender who each shall (I) not have been at the
time of each such individual’s initial appointment, and shall not have been at any time during the
preceding five years, and shall not be at any time while serving as Independent Director, either
(i) a shareholder (or other equity owner) of, or an officer, director (other than in its capacity
as Independent Director), partner, member or employee of, Borrower or any of its respective
shareholders, partners, members, subsidiaries or affiliates, (ii) a customer of, or supplier to, or

agreement;

against Transferee in accordance with their terms, (B) that Transferee and any entity which is a
controlling stockholder, member or general partner of Transferee, have been duly organized, and are
in existence and good standing, (C) that the transfer will not constitute a “significant
modification” of the Loan under Section 1001 of the IRS Code or otherwise cause a tax to be imposed

umbrella or a blanket Policy, Borrower shall notify Lender of the same and shall cause certified
copies of each Policy to be delivered as required in Subsection 7.1(a). Any blanket insurance
Policy remains subject to review and approval by Lender based on the
59
schedule of locations and values. Any blanket insurance Policy shall provide the same
protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions
of Section 7.1(a).
(d) All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Subsection 7.1(a), except for
the Policy referenced in Subsection 7.1(a)(v), shall name Lender and Borrower as the insured or
additional insured, as their respective interests may appear, and in the case of property damage,
rent loss, business interruption, boiler and machinery, earthquake and flood insurance, shall
contain a so-called standard noncontributing mortgagee clause (or its equivalent) in favor of
Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender.
(e) All Policies of insurance provided for in Subsection 7.1(a) shall contain clauses or
endorsements to the effect that:
(i) no (A) act, failure to act, violation of warranties, declarations or conditions, or
negligence by Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or by any Tenant under any Lease or other
occupant, (B) [Intentionally Omitted], (C) exercise by Lender of any of its rights or remedies
hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (D) failure to comply with the provisions of any
Policy which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in
any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;
(ii) the Policy shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided
thereby), terminated or cancelled without at least 30 days’ written notice to Lender and any other
party named therein as an insured;
(iii) each Policy shall provide that (A) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to
Lender if the Policy has not been renewed ten (10) days prior to its expiration and (B) Lender is
permitted to make payments to effect the continuation of such Policy upon notice of cancellation
due to non-payment of Insurance Premiums;
(iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any
assessments thereunder; and
(v) Except as provided in Section 7.1(j) below, the Policies shall not exclude coverage for
acts of terror or similar acts of sabotage.
(f) [Intentionally Omitted].
(g) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required
hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, after five (5) Business Days
prior notice to Borrower (unless Lender has a reasonable belief that one or more of the Policies is
not in full force and effect or will expire in less than five (5) Business Days), to take such
action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without
limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems
appropriate, and all expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining
such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and until
paid shall be secured by the Security Instrument and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In
the event Lender obtains insurance coverage on behalf of Borrower pursuant to this subsection
60
(g), Borrower shall be permitted to cancel such insurance coverages provided Borrower has
delivered to Lender evidence of Borrower’s compliance with this Article 7, which such evidence
shall be subject to Lender’s prior written approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed).
(h) In the event of a foreclosure of the Security Instrument or other transfer of title to the
Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of
Borrower in and to the Policies then in force concerning the Property (other than (i) those
Policies that are not solely covering the Property, (ii) liability Policies or (iii) Policies
maintained by a Tenant) and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest exclusively in
Lender or the purchaser at such foreclosure or other transferee in the event of such other transfer
of title.
(i) As an alternative to the Policies required to be maintained pursuant to the preceding
provisions of this Section 7.1, Borrower will not be in default under this Section 7.1 if Borrower
maintains (or causes to be maintained) Policies which (i) have coverages, deductibles and/or other
related provisions other than those specified above and/or (ii) are provided by insurance companies
not meeting the credit ratings requirements set forth above (any such Policy, a “Non-Conforming
Policy”), provided, that, prior to obtaining such Non-Conforming Policies (or permitting such
Non-Conforming Policies to be obtained), Borrower shall have (1) received Lender’s prior written
consent thereto and (2) if required by Lender, confirmed that Lender has received a Rating Agency
Confirmation with respect to any such Non-Conforming Policy.
(j) Borrower hereby represents that, as of the date hereof, none of the insurance policies
required in this Section 7.1 which require coverage for terrorism, except those required under
clauses (viii), (x) and (xi) of Section 7.1(a) (such insurance policies, the “Applicable Policies”)
exclude coverage for Acts of Terror (defined below). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, in the event that, after the date hereof, any Applicable Policy (other than those
required under clauses (viii), (x) and (xi) of Section 7.1(a)) excludes coverage for Acts of
Terror, Borrower shall obtain and maintain (or cause to be obtained and maintained) coverage for
such excluded Acts of Terror (the “Terrorism Coverage”), which such Terrorism Coverage shall comply
with each of the applicable requirements for Policies set forth above (including, without
limitation, those relating to deductibles); provided, that, Lender, at Lender’s option, may
reasonably require Borrower to obtain or cause to be obtained the Terrorism Coverage with higher
deductibles than set forth above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Borrower be
required to pay annual premiums in excess of the TC Cap (defined below) in order to obtain the
Terrorism Coverage (but Borrower shall be obligated to purchase such portion of the Terrorism
Coverage as is obtainable by payment of annual premiums equal to the TC Cap). As used above, “Acts
of Terror” shall mean acts of terror or similar acts of sabotage; provided, that, for so long as
the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as extended and modified by the Terrorism Risk Insurance
Program Authorization Act of 2007 (as the same may be further modified, amended, or extended,
“TRIA”) (i) remains in full force and effect and (ii) continues to cover both foreign and domestic
acts of terror, the provisions of TRIA shall determine what is deemed to be included within this
definition of “Acts of Terror”. As used above, “TC Cap” shall mean two times the amount of the
Insurance Premiums that are payable at such time in respect of the casualty and business
interruption/rental loss insurance required hereunder (without giving effect to the cost of
terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss
insurance).

ON BEHALF OF BORROWER AT BORROWER’S EXPENSE AS AND TO EXTENT EXPLICITLY PERMITTED BY THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS.
(l) Lender hereby agrees that the Policies maintained by Borrower as of the date hereof
(including any Non-Conforming Policies) are acceptable and satisfy the requirements set forth in
this Article 7.
Section 7.2 Casualty. If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by
fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Lender
(provided that such notice shall not be required if the estimated cost to restore are less than
$100,000.00) and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of the repair and
restoration of the Property as nearly as possible to the condition the Property was in immediately
prior to such Casualty, with such alterations as may be reasonably approved by Lender (a
“Restoration”) and otherwise in accordance with Section 7.4. Borrower shall pay, or cause to be
paid, all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender
may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower.
Section 7.3 Condemnation. Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or
threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of the Property (or any portion
thereof) of which Borrower has actual knowledge and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all
papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings,
and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by it to permit
such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and
shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or
defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public
authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu
of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at
the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt
shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after
the deduction of reasonable expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt.
Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall
be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the
Note. If any portion (but less than all) of the Property is taken by a condemning authority,
Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property and
otherwise comply with the provisions of Section
62
7.4. If the Property (or any portion thereof) is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise,
prior to the receipt by Lender of the Award, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a
deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award,
or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.
Section 7.4 Restoration. The following provisions shall apply in connection with the
Restoration of the Property:
(a) If the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Restoration Threshold and the costs of
completing the Restoration shall be less than the Restoration Threshold, the Net Proceeds will be
disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt, provided that all of the conditions set forth in
Section 7.4(b)(i) are met and Borrower delivers to Lender a written undertaking to expeditiously
commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.
(b) If the Net Proceeds are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold or the costs of
completing the Restoration are equal to or greater than the Restoration Threshold, Lender shall
make the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 7.4.
(i) The Net Proceeds shall be made available for Restoration provided that each of the
following conditions are met:
(A) | no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; | ||
(B) | (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are insurance proceeds, less than thirty percent (30%) of each of (i) fair market value of the Property as reasonably determined by Lender, and (ii) rentable area of the Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of a Casualty or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are condemnation proceeds, less than fifteen percent (15%) of each of (i) the fair market value of the Property as reasonably determined by Lender and (ii) rentable area of the Property is taken, such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Property, no material portion of the Improvements is located on such land and such taking does not materially impair the existing access to the Property; | ||
(C) | Leases demising in the aggregate a percentage amount equal to or greater than seventy-five percent (75%) of the total rentable space in the Property which has been demised under executed and delivered Leases in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, shall remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the Restoration, notwithstanding the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, and Borrower furnishes to Lender evidence satisfactory to Lender that all Tenants under Major Leases shall continue to operate their respective space at the Property after the completion of the Restoration; |
63
(D) | Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the issuance of a building permit with respect thereto) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion in compliance with all Applicable Laws, including, without limitation, all applicable Environmental Laws; | ||
(E) | Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits which will be incurred with respect to the Property as a result of the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in Section 7.1(a)(iii) above, or (3) by other funds of Borrower; | ||
(F) | Lender shall be satisfied that, upon the completion of the Restoration, the Underwritable Cash Flow of the Property will be sufficient to cover all carrying costs and operating expenses of the Property; | ||
(G) | Lender shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 7.1(a)(iii) above, or (3) such time as may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule or regulation in order to repair and restore the Property to the condition it was in immediately prior to such Casualty or Condemnation; | ||
(H) | Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a completion guaranty in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and its counsel pursuant to the provisions of which Borrower shall guaranty to Lender the lien-free completion by Borrower of the Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Subsection 7.4(b); | ||
(I) | the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in material compliance with and permitted under the Property Documents and all Applicable Law; | ||
(J) | the Property Documents will remain in full force and effect during and after the Restoration and a Property Document Event shall not occur as a result of the applicable Casualty, Condemnation and/or Restoration; and | ||
(K) | the Restoration shall be done and completed in a reasonably expeditious and diligent fashion and in material compliance with the Property Documents and all Applicable Law. |
(ii) The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender in an interest-bearing account (bearing interest
at a rate established by Lender, which may or may not be the highest rate then available) and,
until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.4(b), shall constitute
additional security for the Debt and other obligations under this Agreement, the Security
Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds (other than the Rent Loss
Proceeds) shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the
course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that
64
(A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are
to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the related Restoration item
have been paid for in full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or
materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any
nature whatsoever on the Property which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of
Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender
by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.
(iii) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be
subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent consulting
engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”), such acceptance not to be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and
all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The
identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration shall be
subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and the Casualty Consultant, such acceptance not
to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by
Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without
limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s reasonable
fees, shall be paid by Borrower. Borrower shall have the right to settle all claims under the
Policies (subject to Lender’s approval of the final settlement, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), provided that (a) no Event of Default exists, (b)
Borrower promptly and with commercially reasonable diligence negotiates a settlement of any such
claims and (c) the insurer with respect to the Policy under which such claim is brought has not
raised any act of the insured as a defense to the payment of such claim. If an Event of Default
exists, Lender shall, at its election, have the exclusive right to settle or adjust any claims made
under the Policies in the event of a Casualty.
(iv) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess
of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of
the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Restoration Retainage. The
term “Restoration Retainage” as used in this Subsection 7.4(b) shall mean an amount equal to 10% of
the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the
Casualty Consultant, until such time as the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that Net
Proceeds representing 50% of the required Restoration have been disbursed. There shall be no
Restoration Retainage with respect to costs actually incurred by Borrower for work in place in
completing the last 50% of the required Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall in no event,
and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Subsection 7.4(b), be less
than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen
engaged in the Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty
Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the
provisions of this Subsection 7.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use
of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate governmental and quasi-governmental
authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration
have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Restoration Retainage, provided, however,
that Lender will release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being held with respect to any
contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the
Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the
65
contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has
supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or
materialman’s contract, and the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers
and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as
may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company insuring the lien of the Security
Instrument. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Restoration Retainage
shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond
with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
(v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently
than once every calendar month.
(vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the
reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in
full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in
connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net
Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be
made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be
disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions
applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section
7.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under this
Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents.
(vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net
Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that
the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.4(b), and
the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with
the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower within ten (10)
Business Days thereafter, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing
under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents.
(c) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be
returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Subsection 7.4(b)(vii) shall be retained
and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such
order, priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper. If Lender shall
receive and retain Net Proceeds, the lien of the Security Instrument shall be reduced only by the
amount thereof received and retained by Lender and actually applied by Lender in reduction of the
Debt.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.4, if the Loan is included in a
REMIC Trust and, immediately following a release of any portion of the Property following a
Condemnation or, if applicable, a Casualty, the Loan-to-Value Ratio of the remaining portion of the
Property is greater than 125% (such value to be determined, in Lender’s sole discretion, by any
commercially reasonable method permitted to a REMIC Trust), the principal balance of the Loan must
be paid down by Borrower by the least of the following amounts, unless the Lender receives an
opinion of counsel that the Securitization will not fail to
66
maintain its status as a REMIC Trust as a result of the related release of lien: (i) the Net
Proceeds, (ii) the fair market value of the released portion of the Property at the time of the
release, or (iii) an amount such that the Loan-to-Value Ratio of the Loan (as so determined by
Lender) does not increase after the release. Unless Lender determines, in its sole discretion,
that applicable REMIC requirements or regulations require a different valuation method, Lender
shall determine the Loan-to-Value Ratio of the remaining portion of the Property by capitalizing
net operating income for the Property for such period using a capitalization rate or range of
capitalization rates, in its sole discretion, that Lender has no reason to believe is incorrect.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 7, to the extent any Lease
remains in effect and the Tenant thereunder remains liable for the obligations under such Lease,
the restoration of the Property and disposition of any amounts, awards or payments payable with
respect to any Casualty or Condemnation relating to the Property shall be governed by the
applicable Lease. Borrower agrees to notify Lender in writing in the event that a Tenant under any
Lease exercises any right relating to any Casualty or Condemnation thereunder and agrees to deliver
to Lender any correspondence received or delivered by Borrower pursuant to such Lease as it relates
to any Casualty or Condemnation.
ARTICLE 8
RESERVE FUNDS
Section 8.1 Intentionally Omitted.
Section 8.2 Intentionally Omitted.
Section 8.3 Intentionally Omitted.
Section 8.4 Minimed TI Reserve.
(a) On the Closing Date, Borrower shall deposit with Lender the sum of One Million Twelve
Thousand Four Hundred Eighty and No/100 Dollars ($1,012,480.00) (the “Minimed TI Funds”). The
Minimed TI Funds shall be applied toward Borrower’s obligation to pay Minimed the Construction
Allowance under the Minimed Lease.
(b) Lender shall disburse the Minimed TI Funds to Borrower upon satisfaction of the following
conditions: (i) no Event of Default shall exist; and (ii) Borrower shall certify to Lender in
writing that Minimed has satisfied in all material respects all of the conditions to disbursement
of the Construction Allowance, as required under Section B.3. of Exhibit D to the Minimed Lease.
Section 8.5 The Accounts Generally.
(a) Borrower grants to Lender a first-priority perfected security interest in each of the
Reserve Funds and all sums now or hereafter deposited in the Reserve Funds as additional security
for payment of the Debt. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Reserve Funds shall
constitute additional security for the Debt. The provisions of this Section 8.5 are intended to
give Lender and/or Servicer “control” of the Reserve Funds within the meaning of the UCC. Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that the Reserve Funds are subject
67
to the sole dominion, control and discretion of Lender, its authorized agents or designees,
subject to the terms hereof, and Borrower shall have no right of withdrawal with respect to any
Reserve Funds except with the prior written consent of Lender or as otherwise provided herein. The
Reserve Funds shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by
Lender.
(b) Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender and except
pursuant to the Mezzanine Loan Agreement, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in
the Reserve Funds or permit any lien to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any
UCC-1 Financing Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with
respect thereto. Lender shall have the right to file a financing statement or statements under the
UCC in connection with any of the Reserve Funds with respect thereto in the form required to
properly perfect Lender’s security interest therein. Borrower agrees that at any time and from
time to time, at the expense of Borrower, Borrower will promptly execute and deliver all further
instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be reasonably necessary or
desirable, or that Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any security
interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable Lender to exercise and enforce its
rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Reserve Funds.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document,
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice from Lender
or Servicer (i) Borrower shall have no rights in respect of the Reserve Funds and (ii) Lender shall
have all rights and remedies with respect to the Accounts and the amounts on deposit therein and
the Reserve Funds as described in this Agreement, the Cash Management Agreement and in the Security
Instrument, in addition to all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party under the
UCC, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Cash Management
Agreement or in the Security Instrument, may apply the Reserve Funds as Lender determines in its
sole discretion including, but not limited to, payment of the Debt.
(d) The insufficiency of Reserve Funds on deposit with Lender shall not absolve Borrower of
the obligation to make any payments, as and when due pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, and such obligations shall be separate and independent, and not conditioned on any event
or circumstance whatsoever.
(e) BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY LENDER AND HOLD LENDER HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL
ACTIONS, SUITS, CLAIMS, DEMANDS, LIABILITIES, LOSSES, DAMAGES, OBLIGATIONS AND COSTS AND EXPENSES
(INCLUDING LITIGATION COSTS AND REASONABLE ATTORNEYS FEES AND EXPENSES) ARISING FROM OR IN ANY WAY
CONNECTED WITH THE RESERVE FUNDS, THE SUMS DEPOSITED THEREIN OR THE PERFORMANCE OF THE OBLIGATIONS
FOR WHICH THE RESERVE FUNDS WERE ESTABLISHED, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT ARISING FROM THE GROSS
NEGLIGENCE, BAD FAITH OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF LENDER, ITS AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES. BORROWER SHALL
ASSIGN TO LENDER ALL RIGHTS AND CLAIMS BORROWER MAY HAVE AGAINST ALL PERSONS SUPPLYING LABOR,
MATERIALS OR OTHER SERVICES WHICH ARE TO BE PAID FROM OR SECURED BY THE RESERVE FUNDS; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER,
68
THAT LENDER MAY NOT PURSUE ANY SUCH RIGHT OR CLAIM UNLESS AN EVENT OF DEFAULT HAS OCCURRED AND
REMAINS UNCURED.
(f) Borrower and Lender shall maintain each applicable Account as an Eligible Account, except
as otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by Lender. In the event that Lender no longer
satisfies the criteria for an Eligible Institution, Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in
transferring the applicable Accounts to an institution that satisfies such criteria. Borrower
hereby grants Lender power of attorney (irrevocable for so long as the Loan is outstanding) with
respect to any such transfers and the establishment of accounts with a successor institution.
(g) Interest accrued, if any, on the Reserve Funds, other than on the Minimed TI Funds, shall
not be required to be remitted to any Account and may instead be retained by Lender. The Minimed
TI Funds shall be held in an interest-bearing account. In no event shall Lender or any Servicer be
required to select any particular interest-bearing account or the account that yields the highest
rate of interest, provided that selection of the account shall be consistent with the general
standards at the time being utilized by Lender or such Servicer, as applicable, in establishing
similar accounts for loans of comparable type. All such interest that so becomes part of the
Minimed TI Funds shall be disbursed in accordance with the disbursement procedures contained herein
applicable to Minimed TI Funds; provided, however, that Lender may, at its election, retain any
such interest for its own account during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default.
(h) Intentionally Omitted.
(i) Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it solely shall be, and shall at all times remain,
liable to Lender or Servicer for all reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses in connection
with the Reserve Funds, this Agreement and the enforcement hereof, including, without limitation,
any reasonable monthly or annual fees or charges as may be assessed by Lender or Servicer in
connection with the administration of the Accounts and the Reserve Funds and the reasonable fees
and expenses of legal counsel to Lender and Servicer as reasonably needed to enforce, protect or
preserve the rights and remedies of Lender and/or Servicer under this Agreement.

Agreement on the date hereof which shall govern the collection, holding and disbursement of Rents
and any other income from the Property.
Section 9.2 Cash Flow Sweep. In the event of a Cash Trap Event Period (as defined in the Cash
Management Agreement), all Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) shall be

more particularly set forth in the Cash Management Agreement.

ARTICLE 10
EVENTS OF DEFAULT; REMEDIES
Section 10.1 Event of Default.
The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an “Event of
Default”:
(a) if (A) any monthly Debt Service payment is not paid within five (5) days when due except
to the extent sums sufficient to pay monthly Debt Service have been deposited with Lender in
accordance with the terms of the Cash Management Agreement or the Deposit Account Agreement (as
defined in the Cash Management Agreement) and Lender’s access to such sums is not restricted or
constrained in any manner, (B) the payment due on the Maturity Date is not paid when due or (C) any
other portion of the Debt is not paid when due and such non-payment continues for five (5) days
following notice to Borrower that the same is due and payable;

Borrower or Tenant is contesting such Taxes or Other Charges in accordance with the terms of
Section 4.5 hereof;
(c) if the Policies are not kept in full force and effect or if evidence of the same is not
delivered to Lender as provided in Section 7.1 hereof and such failure to deliver evidence is not
cured within ten (10) Business Days after notice from Lender to Borrower of such failure;
(d) if any of the covenants contained in Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.4, 5.5 or Article 6 hereof are
breached or violated;
(e) if any representation or warranty of, or with respect to, Borrower or Guarantor, made
herein, in the Guaranty or in the Environmental Indemnity or in any other guaranty, or in any
certificate, report, financial statement or other instrument or document furnished to Lender in
connection with the Loan shall have been false or misleading in any material adverse respect when
made;
(f) if (i) Borrower, any SPE Component Entity or Guarantor shall commence any case, proceeding
or other action (A) under any Creditors Rights Laws seeking to have an order for relief entered

Section 10.2 Remedies.
(a) Subject to the terms of Article 13 hereof, upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 10.1(f) above with
respect to Borrower and any SPE Component Entity only) and at any time thereafter Lender may, in
addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement, the Security
Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, take such action, without
notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower
and in the Property, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and
payable, and Lender may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in this
Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents against Borrower and the
Property, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity. Upon
any Event of Default described in Section 10.1(f) above (with respect to Borrower and any SPE
Component Entity only), the Debt and all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the
Security Instrument, the Note and the other
72
Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or
demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein
or in the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents to the contrary
notwithstanding.
(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or
more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower
under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents executed and
delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any
time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and
payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action
for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the
Note or the other Loan Documents with respect to the Property. Any such actions taken by Lender
shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, successively,
together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole
discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, without impairing or otherwise
affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by Applicable Law, equity or contract
or as set forth herein or in the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents, subject
to the terms of Article 13 hereof. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power
accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be
construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to
time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with
respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of
Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.
(c) Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Security
Instrument in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instrument then due and
payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following
circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment
of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Lender may foreclose the Security
Instrument to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate
less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose the Security
Instrument to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Lender may accelerate and
such other sums secured by the Security Instrument as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or
more partial foreclosures, the Property shall remain subject to the Security Instrument to secure
payment of sums secured by the Security Instrument and not previously recovered.
(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have
the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more
separate notes, security instruments and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in
such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and
enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender
from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other
documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding
sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely
and irrevocably appoints Lender as its true
73
and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all
documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its
said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any
such documents under such power until five (5) days after notice has been given to Borrower by
Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower shall not be obligated
to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or
filing of the Severed Loan Documents and the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any
representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such
representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower
only as of the Closing Date.
(e) Any amounts recovered from the Property or any other collateral for the Loan after an
Event of Default may be applied by Lender toward the payment of any interest and/or principal of
the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan Documents in such order, priority and
proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall determine.
(f) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, but
without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing
Borrower from any obligation hereunder or being deemed to have cured any Event of Default
hereunder, make, do or perform any obligation of Borrower hereunder in such manner and to such
extent as Lender may deem necessary. Subject to the rights of Tenants under the Leases, Lender is
authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action
or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property for such purposes, and the cost and expense
thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by Applicable Law), with
interest as provided in this Section, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and
payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying such
Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any
action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after such cost or
expense was incurred through and including the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and
expenses incurred by Lender together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be
deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by the liens, claims and security
interests provided to Lender under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon
demand by Lender therefore.

(ii) provide opinions of counsel, which may be relied upon by Lender, the Rating Agencies and
their respective counsel, agents and representatives, as to matters of Delaware law relating to
limited liability companies, which counsel and opinions shall be reasonably satisfactory in form

(iii) provide updated, as of the closing date of the Secondary Market Transaction,
representations and warranties made in the Loan Documents and such additional representations and
warranties as the Rating Agencies may reasonably require;

Agencies or otherwise to effect the Securitization including, without limitation, bifurcation of
the Loan into two or more components and/or separate notes and/or creating a senior/subordinate
note structure (any of the foregoing, a “Loan Bifurcation”); provided, however, that Borrower shall
not be required to modify or amend any Loan Document if such modification or amendment would change
the interest rate, the stated maturity or the amortization of principal set forth in the Note,
except in connection with a Loan Bifurcation which may result in varying fixed interest rates, but
which shall have the same weighted average coupon of the original Note.
(c) Borrower shall be responsible for any of Borrower’s out-of-pocket and internal costs and
expenses incurred in connection with Borrower’s compliance with this Section 11.1 (including,
without limitation, Borrower’s attorney’s fees and expenses), subject to an aggregate cap on such
costs and expenses of $10,000.00, and provided that Borrower shall not be required to reimburse
Lender for Lender’s costs and expenses in connection with this Section 11.1. Notwithstanding the
foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, Borrower shall pay for any costs and expenses with
respect to items which Borrower is otherwise required to deliver pursuant to the terms of the Loan
Documents.
Section 11.2 Securitization Indemnification.
75
(a) Borrower understands that information provided to Lender by Borrower and its agents,
counsel and representatives may be included in disclosure documents in connection with the
Securitization, including, without limitation, an offering circular, a prospectus, prospectus
supplement, private placement memorandum or other offering document (each, a “Disclosure Document”)

Affiliates, the Property, Manager, Operating Partnership, Guarantor and all other aspects of the
Loan Documents, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, (B) SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF ARTICLE 13 HEREOF,
INDEMNIFYING LENDER (AND FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION 11.2, LENDER HEREUNDER SHALL INCLUDE ITS

PERSON THAT CONTROLS THE AFFILIATE WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 15 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR
SECTION 20 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT (COLLECTIVELY, THE “XXXXX GROUP”), AND XXXXX, AND ANY OTHER
PLACEMENT AGENT OR UNDERWRITER WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIZATION, EACH OF THEIR RESPECTIVE
DIRECTORS AND EACH PERSON WHO CONTROLS XXXXX OR ANY OTHER PLACEMENT AGENT OR UNDERWRITER WITHIN THE
MEANING OF SECTION 15 OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND SECTION 20 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT (COLLECTIVELY, THE
“UNDERWRITER GROUP”) FOR ANY LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES OR LIABILITIES (COLLECTIVELY, THE
“LIABILITIES”) TO WHICH LENDER, THE XXXXX GROUP OR THE UNDERWRITER GROUP MAY BECOME SUBJECT INSOFAR
AS THE LIABILITIES ARISE OUT OF OR ARE BASED UPON ANY UNTRUE STATEMENT OR ALLEGED UNTRUE STATEMENT
OF ANY MATERIAL FACT CONTAINED IN SUCH SECTIONS OR ARISE OUT OF OR ARE BASED UPON THE OMISSION OR
ALLEGED OMISSION TO STATE THEREIN A MATERIAL FACT REQUIRED TO BE STATED IN SUCH SECTIONS OR
NECESSARY IN ORDER TO MAKE THE STATEMENTS IN SUCH SECTIONS, IN LIGHT OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER
WHICH THEY WERE MADE, NOT MISLEADING and (C) agreeing to reimburse Lender, the Xxxxx Group and/or
the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Xxxxx
Group and the Underwriter Group in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities;
provided, however, that Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (B) or (C) above
only to the extent that any such loss claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any
such untrue statement or omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with the preparation of the
Disclosure Document or in
76
connection with the underwriting or closing of the Loan, including, without limitation,
financial statements of Borrower, operating statements and rent rolls with respect to the Property
(the “Provided Information”). The indemnification provided for in clauses (B) and (C) above shall
be effective whether or not the indemnification agreement described above is provided; provided,
however, such indemnity shall be limited to the Provided Information and shall only be effective to
the extent that Lender accurately states the Provided Information in the applicable Disclosure
Document. The aforesaid indemnity will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may
otherwise have.
(c) IN CONNECTION WITH EXCHANGE ACT FILINGS, SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF ARTICLE 13 HEREOF,
BORROWER SHALL (I) INDEMNIFY LENDER, THE XXXXX GROUP AND THE UNDERWRITER GROUP FOR LIABILITIES TO
WHICH LENDER, THE XXXXX GROUP OR THE UNDERWRITER GROUP MAY BECOME SUBJECT INSOFAR AS THE
LIABILITIES ARISE OUT OF OR ARE BASED UPON THE OMISSION OR ALLEGED OMISSION TO STATE IN THE

WERE MADE, NOT MISLEADING and (ii) reimburse Lender, the Xxxxx Group or the Underwriter Group for
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Lender, the Xxxxx Group or the Underwriter Group
in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities; provided, however, that Borrower’s
liability under clauses (i) and (ii) above shall be effective only to the extent that Lender
accurately sets forth the Provided Information in the applicable Disclosure Document. The
obligations of Borrower pursuant to this Section 11.2(c) shall be in addition to but not in
duplication of Section 11.2(b) above.
(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 11.2 of notice of the
commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against the indemnifying party under this Section 11.2, notify the indemnifying party in
writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not
relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any
indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the
indemnifying party. In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it
notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be
entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that
it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after
receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying
party to such indemnified party under this Section 11.2, such indemnified party shall pay for any
legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the
defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, if the defendants
in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it
and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the
indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate
counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on
behalf of such indemnified party at the cost of the indemnifying party. The indemnified party
shall instruct its counsel to maintain
77
reasonably detailed billing records for fees and disbursements for which such indemnified
party is seeking reimbursement hereunder and shall submit copies of such detailed billing records
to substantiate that such counsel’s fees and disbursements are solely related to the defense of a
claim for which the indemnifying party is required hereunder to indemnify such indemnified party.
The indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel
unless an indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses
available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified
party.
(e) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the
indemnity agreement provided for in Section 11.2(b) or (c) hereof is for any reason held to be
unenforceable as to an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities
(or action in respect thereof) referred to therein which would otherwise be indemnifiable under
Section 11.2(b) or (c) hereof, the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
action in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In
determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, the following
factors shall be considered: (i) Xxxxx’ and Borrower’s relative knowledge and access to information
concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct
and prevent any statement or omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in
the circumstances. Lender and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable if the amount
of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.
(f) SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF ARTICLE 13 HEREOF, BORROWER SHALL JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY INDEMNIFY
LENDER AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, PARTNERS, EMPLOYEES, REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS AND AFFILIATES
AGAINST ANY LOSSES TO WHICH LENDER OR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, PARTNERS, EMPLOYEES,
REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS AND AFFILIATES, MAY BECOME SUBJECT IN CONNECTION WITH ANY INDEMNIFICATION
TO THE RATING AGENCIES IN CONNECTION WITH ISSUING, MONITORING OR MAINTAINING THE SECURITIES INSOFAR
AS THE LOSSES ARISE OUT OF OR ARE BASED UPON ANY UNTRUE STATEMENT OF ANY MATERIAL FACT IN ANY
INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OR ON BEHALF OF BORROWER TO THE RATING AGENCIES (THE “COVERED RATING AGENCY
INFORMATION”) OR ARISE OUT OF OR ARE BASED UPON THE OMISSION TO STATE A MATERIAL FACT IN THE
COVERED RATING AGENCY INFORMATION REQUIRED TO BE STATED THEREIN OR NECESSARY IN ORDER TO MAKE THE
STATEMENTS IN COVERED RATING AGENCY INFORMATION, IN LIGHT OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER WHICH THEY
WERE MADE, NOT MISLEADING.
(g) The liabilities and obligations of both Borrower and Lender under this Section 11.2 shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.
78
Section 11.3 Reserves/Escrows. In the event that Securities are issued in connection with the
Loan, all funds held by Lender in escrow or pursuant to reserves in accordance with this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents shall be deposited in “eligible accounts” at “eligible institutions”
and, to the extent applicable, invested in “permitted investments” as then defined and required by
the Rating Agencies.
Section 11.4 Servicer. At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a
servicer/trustee selected by Lender (the “Servicer”) and Lender may delegate all or any portion of
its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to such servicer/trustee
pursuant to a servicing agreement between Lender and such Servicer; provided that Borrower shall
not be responsible for paying Servicer any servicing fees due to Servicer under such servicing
agreement (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, including, without limitation,
Section 17.6 hereof).
Section 11.5 Rating Agency Costs. In connection with any Rating Agency Confirmation or other
Rating Agency consent, approval or review required hereunder (other than the initial review of the
Loan by the Rating Agencies in connection with a Securitization), Borrower shall pay all of the
reasonable costs and expenses of Lender, Servicer and each Rating Agency in connection therewith,
and, if applicable, shall pay any reasonable fees imposed by any Rating Agency in connection
therewith.
Section 11.6 Mezzanine Option. Lender shall have the option (the “Mezzanine Option”) at any
time to divide the Loan into two parts, a mortgage loan and a mezzanine loan, provided, that (i)
the total loan amounts for such mortgage loan and such mezzanine loan shall equal the then
outstanding amount of the Loan immediately prior to Lender’s exercise of the Mezzanine Option, and
(ii) the weighted average interest rate of such mortgage loan and mezzanine loan shall equal the
Interest Rate. Borrower shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense (subject to an aggregate cap on
such costs and expenses of $10,000.00), cooperate with Lender in Lender’s exercise of the Mezzanine
Option in good faith and in a timely manner, which such cooperation shall include, but not be
limited to, (i) executing such amendments to the Loan Documents and Borrower’s or any SPE Component
Entity’s organizational documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender or requested by the
Rating Agencies, (ii) creating one or more Single Purpose Entities (the “Additional Mezzanine
Borrower”), which such Additional Mezzanine Borrower shall (A) own, directly or indirectly, 100% of
the equity ownership interests in Borrower (the “Equity Collateral”), and (B) together with such
constituent equity owners of such Additional Mezzanine Borrower as may be designated by Lender,
execute such agreements, instruments and other documents as may be required by Lender in connection
with the mezzanine loan (including, without limitation, a promissory note evidencing the mezzanine
loan and a pledge and security agreement pledging the Equity Collateral to Lender as security for
the mezzanine loan); and (iii) delivering such opinions, title endorsements, UCC title insurance
policies and other materials as may be reasonably required by Lender or the Rating Agencies.
Section 11.7 Conversion to Registered Form. At the request of Lender, Borrower shall appoint,
as its agent, a registrar and transfer agent (the “Registrar”) reasonably acceptable to Lender
which shall maintain, subject to such reasonable regulations as it shall provide, such books and
records as are necessary for the registration and transfer of the Note in a manner that shall cause
the Note to be considered to be in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the IRS Code.
The option to convert the Note into registered form once exercised may not be
79
revoked. Any agreement setting out the rights and obligation of the Registrar shall be
subject to the reasonable approval of Lender. Borrower may revoke the appointment of any
particular person as Registrar, effective upon the effectiveness of the appointment of a
replacement Registrar. The Registrar shall not be entitled to any fee from Borrower or Lender or
any other lender in respect of transfers of the Note and other Loan Documents.

security granted by the
82

Section 13.1) or to commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Lender to
exercise its remedies against the Property; or (8) constitute a waiver of the right of Lender to
enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower, by money judgment or otherwise, to the extent of
any Losses incurred by Lender (including attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred) directly
arising out of or caused by the following:
(i) fraud or willful misrepresentation by Borrower, any SPE Component Entity, any of the

the payment of either (i) normal and necessary Operating Expenses or (ii) the Debt;

Charges if non-payment of the same would create liens senior to the lien of the Security Instrument
on all or any portion of the Property;
(vii) the failure of Borrower to deliver any security deposits, advance deposits or any other
deposits collected with respect to the Property to Lender, upon a foreclosure of the Property (or
any portion thereof) or action in lieu thereof, except to the extent any such security deposits
were applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of any of the Leases prior to the
occurrence of the Event of Default that gave rise to such foreclosure or action in lieu thereof;
(viii) the material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or indemnification
provision in the Environmental Indemnity, this Agreement or in the Security Instrument concerning
environmental laws, hazardous substances and asbestos and any indemnification of Lender with
respect thereto in either document;

therein, resulting from criminal wrongdoing by Borrower or Guarantor.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Note or any of the Loan
Documents, (A) Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right which Lender may have under

solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition against it; (iv) any Affiliate,
officer, director, or representative which Controls Borrower or any SPE Component Entity consents

FURTHER ASSURANCES
Section 15.1 Replacement Documents. Upon receipt of an affidavit reasonably acceptable to
Borrower of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note, this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which is not of public record, and, in the case of any
such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Note, this Agreement or such other Loan
Document: (i) with respect to any Loan Document other than the Note, Borrower will issue, in lieu
thereof, a replacement thereof, dated the date of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as
applicable, in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor and (ii) with respect
to the Note, (a) Borrower will execute a reaffirmation of the Debt as evidenced by such Note
acknowledging that Lender has informed Borrower that the Note was lost, stolen, destroyed or
mutilated and that such Debt continues to be an obligation and liability of the Borrower as set
forth in the Note, a copy of which shall be attached to such reaffirmation and (b) if requested by
Lender, Borrower will execute a replacement note and Lender or Lender’s custodian (at Lender’s
option) shall provide to Borrower its then standard form of lost note affidavit and indemnity,
which such form shall be reasonably acceptable to Borrower.
Section 15.2 Recording of Security Instrument, etc. Borrower forthwith upon the execution and
delivery of the Security Instrument and thereafter, from time to time, will cause the Security
Instrument and any of the other Loan Documents creating a lien or security interest or evidencing
the lien hereof upon the Property and each instrument of further assurance to be filed, registered
or recorded in such manner and in such places as may be required by any present or future law in
order to publish notice of and fully to protect and perfect the lien or security interest hereof
upon, and the interest of Lender in, the Property. Borrower will pay all taxes, filing,
registration or recording fees, and all expenses incident to the preparation, execution,
acknowledgment and/or recording of the Note, the Security Instrument, this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents, any note, deed of trust or mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument
with respect to the Property and any instrument of further assurance, and any modification or
amendment of the foregoing documents, and all federal, state, county and municipal taxes, duties,
imposts, assessments and charges arising out of or in connection with the execution and delivery of
the Security Instrument, any deed of trust or mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument
with respect to the Property or any instrument of further assurance, and any modification or
amendment of the foregoing documents, except where prohibited by Applicable Law so to do.
Section 15.3 Further Acts, etc. Borrower will, at the reasonable cost of Borrower, and
without expense to Lender, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all and every further acts, deeds,
conveyances, deeds of trust, mortgages, assignments, notices of assignments, transfers and

conveying, assigning, transferring, and confirming unto Lender the property and rights hereby

tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. If Lender is advised by counsel chosen by it

the Debt for any part of the Taxes or Other Charges assessed against the Property, or any part

immediately due and payable.

such State shall require revenue or other stamps to be affixed to the Note, the Security
Instrument, or any of the other Loan Documents or impose any other tax or charge on the same,
Borrower will pay for the same, with interest and penalties thereon, if any.
ARTICLE 16
WAIVERS
Section 16.1 Remedies Cumulative; Waivers.
Subject to the terms of Article 13 hereof, the rights, powers and remedies of Lender under
this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which
Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or
the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers
and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order
as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy,
right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or
shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from
time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default
with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver
87
of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or
power consequent thereon.
Section 16.2 Modification, Waiver in Writing.
No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents, nor consent to any
departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a
writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, no notice to, or demand on Borrower, shall entitle Borrower to
any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances (unless such
notice or demand is otherwise specifically required herein or under any of the other Loan
Documents).
Section 16.3 Delay Not a Waiver.
Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance
of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege
under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or any other
instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a
single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other
right, power, remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting
payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the
Note or the other Loan Documents, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to
require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement, the Security
Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect
prompt payment of any such other amount.
Section 16.4 Waiver of Trial by Jury.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND LENDER, BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS
AGREEMENT, HEREBY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM, WHETHER IN CONTRACT. TORT OR OTHERWISE, RELATING
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THE LOAN, THE APPLICATION FOR THE LOAN, THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE, THE
SECURITY INSTRUMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF LENDER OR BORROWER.
Section 16.5 Waiver of Notice.
Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except (a)
with respect to matters for which this Agreement specifically and expressly provides for the giving
of notice by Lender to Borrower and (b) with respect to matters for which Lender is required by
Applicable Law to give notice, and Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice
from Lender with respect to any matter for which (i) this Agreement does not specifically and
expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and (ii) Lender is not required
under Applicable Law to give notice.
88
Section 16.6 Remedies of Borrower.
In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted
unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by Applicable Law or under this
Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as
the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither
Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall
be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties
hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall
be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment. Lender agrees that, in such event, it
shall cooperate in expediting any action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.
Section 16.7 Marshalling and Other Matters.
Borrower hereby waives, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the benefit of all
appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, reinstatement and redemption laws now or hereafter in
force and all rights of marshalling in the event of any sale under the Security Instrument of the
Property or any part thereof or any interest therein. Further, Borrower hereby expressly waives
any and all rights of redemption from sale under any order or decree of foreclosure of the Security
Instrument on behalf of Borrower, and on behalf of each and every person acquiring any interest in
or title to the Property subsequent to the date of the Security Instrument and on behalf of all
persons to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.
Section 16.8 Waiver of Statute of Limitations.
To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Borrower hereby expressly waives and releases to
the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the pleading of any statute of limitations as a
defense to payment of the Debt or performance of its obligations hereunder, under the Note,
Security Instrument or other Loan Documents.
Section 16.9 Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a
counterclaim, other than a mandatory or compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding
brought against it by Lender or its agents.
Section 16.10 Sole Discretion of Lender. Wherever pursuant to this Agreement (a) Lender
exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, (b) any arrangement or term is to be
satisfactory to Lender, or (c) any other decision or determination is to be made by Lender, the
decision to approve or disapprove all decisions that arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not
satisfactory, and all other decisions and determinations made by Lender, shall be in the sole
discretion of Lender, except as may be otherwise expressly and specifically provided herein.

Lender’s costs and expenses for such services shall be calculated in accordance with Lender’s
standard charge for such services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be required
to pay for more than one appraisal during the term of the Loan unless (x) an Event of Default
occurs and is continuing or (y) as otherwise required by law. In addition, if Borrower is
undertaking a Restoration or is performing any work at the Property that requires the obtaining of
a building permit, then Borrower shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of architect’s
engineers and other consultants retained by Lender to review the performance of such Restoration or
work. Any amounts payable to Lender pursuant to this Section 17.6 shall become immediately due and
payable upon written demand and, if the same is not paid within ten (10) Business Days from such
written demand, shall bear interest at the Interest Rate from the date which is ten (10) Business
Days from such written demand until the date such amounts have been paid.

in whole or in part, (b) of the bankruptcy, insolvency, rehabilitation or other similar proceeding
in respect of Borrower or any of its constituent Persons or an assignment by Borrower or any of its
constituent Persons for the benefit of its creditors, or (c) Lender exercises any of its other
remedies under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents,
Borrower shall be chargeable with and agrees to pay all costs of collection and defense, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by Lender or Borrower in connection therewith and in
connection with any appellate proceeding or post judgment action involved therein, together with
all required service or use taxes. Any amounts payable to Lender pursuant to this Section 17.7
shall become immediately due and payable upon written demand
91
and, if the same is not paid within ten (10) Business Days from such written demand, shall
bear interest at the Default Rate from the date which is ten (10) Business Days from such written
demand until the date such amounts have been paid.
Section 17.8 Exhibits and Schedules Incorporated. The Exhibits and Schedules annexed hereto
are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in
the body hereof.
Section 17.9 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to
this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall take the same
free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such documents
which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such documents, and no such unrelated
counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding
brought by any such assignee upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such
unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly
waived by Borrower.
Section 17.10 No Joint Venture or Partnership; No Third Party Beneficiaries.
(a) Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships created under this Agreement, the
Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender.
Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or
joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the
Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.
(b) This Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents are solely
for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement, the Security
Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than
Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of
the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make
the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person
shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be
entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance
with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a
beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by
Lender if, in Lender’s sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable to do so.
(c) The general partners, members, principals and (if Borrower is a trust) beneficial owners
of Borrower are experienced in the ownership and operation of properties similar to the Property,
and Borrower and Lender are relying solely upon such expertise and business plan in connection with
the ownership and operation of the Property. Borrower is not relying on Lender’s expertise,
business acumen or advice in connection with the Property.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lender is not undertaking the
performance of (i) any obligations under the Leases; or (ii) any obligations with respect to such
agreements, contracts, certificates, instruments, franchises, permits, trademarks, licenses and
other documents.
92
(e) By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed or fulfilled or to
be given to Lender pursuant to this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan
Documents, including, without limitation, any officer’s certificate, balance sheet, statement of
profit and loss or other financial statement, survey, appraisal, or insurance policy, Lender shall
not be deemed to have warranted, consented to, or affirmed the sufficiency, the legality or
effectiveness of same, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute any warranty or
affirmation with respect thereto by Lender.
(f) Borrower recognizes and acknowledges that in accepting this Agreement, the Note, the
Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, Lender is expressly and primarily relying on the
truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement
without any obligation to investigate the Property and notwithstanding any investigation of the
Property by Lender; that such reliance existed on the part of Lender prior to the date hereof, that
the warranties and representations are a material inducement to Lender in making the Loan; and that
Lender would not be willing to make the Loan and accept this Agreement, the Note, the Security
Instrument and the other Loan Documents in the absence of the warranties and representations as set
forth in Article 3 of this Agreement.
Section 17.11 Publicity; Confidentiality.
(a) All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any
media intended to reach the general public which refers to this Agreement, the Note, the Security
Instrument or the other Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by this Agreement, the Note, the
Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents, to Lender or any of its Affiliates shall be
subject to the prior written approval of Lender, not to be unreasonably withheld. All news
releases, publicity or advertising by Lender or any of its Affiliates through any media intended to
reach the general public which refers to this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument or the
other Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by this Agreement, the Note, the Security
Instrument or the other Loan Documents, Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Affiliates shall be
subject to the prior written approval of Borrower and/or Guarantor, as applicable, not to be
unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower agrees that Lender or any of its
Affiliates may share additional information pertaining to the Loan in connection with the sale,
assignment or participation of any portion of Loan or if required by Applicable Law, any audit of
Lender or any of its Affiliates, or any applicable regulatory or judicial proceeding or litigation.
(b) Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, Lender shall utilize all non public
information obtained pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement which has been identified as
confidential or proprietary by the Borrower in accordance with its customary procedure for handling
confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices
but, notwithstanding the foregoing, may make disclosure: (a) to any of its Affiliates (provided any
such Affiliate shall agree to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of
this Section); (b) as requested by any bona fide assignee, participant, Investor, potential
investor, Rating Agency (which, for the purposes of this Section 17.11(b), shall include any
non-hired Rating Agency) or other transferee in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction
(provided they shall be notified of the confidential nature of the information); (c) as required or
requested by any Governmental Authority or representative
93
thereof or pursuant to legal process or in connection with any legal proceedings; (d) to
Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors (provided they shall be notified of
the confidential nature of the information); (e) if an Event of Default exists, to any other
Person, in connection with the exercise by Lender of rights hereunder or under any of the other
Loan Documents; and (f) 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 Lender on a nonconfidential basis
from a source other than the Borrower or any Affiliate that is not known by Lender to be subject to
a confidentiality restriction with respect thereto.
Section 17.12 Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict
between the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Instrument, the Note or any of the other
Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. Wherever the phrase “during the
continuance of an Event of Default” or the like appears herein or in any other Loan Document, such
phrase shall not mean or imply that Lender has any obligation to accept a cure of such Event of
Default. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in
connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of this Agreement, the Note, the Security
Instrument and the other Loan Documents and this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and
the other Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against
the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall
rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any
manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or
Affiliate of Lender. Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of
any rights or remedies available to it under this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and
the other Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of
the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of
them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense
or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Lender’s exercise of any such
rights or remedies. Borrower acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate
financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse-to or
competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.
Section 17.13 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the
other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such
parties, whether oral or written between Borrower and Lender are superseded by the terms of this
Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.
Section 17.14 Liability. If Borrower consists of more than one person, the obligations and
liabilities of each such person hereunder shall be joint and several. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and
assigns forever.
Section 17.15 Duplicate Originals; Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of duplicate originals and each duplicate original shall be deemed to be an original. The failure
of any party hereto to execute this Agreement, or any counterpart hereof, shall not relieve the
other signatories from their obligations hereunder.
