LOAN

2.1 The Loan. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender has made and Borrower has accepted the Loan on the Closing Date in the Loan Amount. Any portion of the Loan borrowed and repaid hereunder may not be reborrowed. The foregoing will not be deemed to limit or restrict the disbursement to Borrower of any deposits, holdbacks, accounts, reserves or proceeds of insurance or Awards that are to be disbursed to Borrower under other provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The Loan shall be evidenced by this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents and shall be secured by the Security Instrument, the Assignment and the other Loan Documents.

2.2 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loan disbursed to it (a) to pay to Lender the amounts due under the Loan Documents and (b) for Borrower’s general business purposes (including acquisition of Borrower’s interest in the Property or repayment of a previous financing arrangement, if applicable). The Loan is for business and commercial use and is not for personal, family or household purposes.

2.3 Payment Provisions.

(a) Interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance of the Note from the date of disbursement to but not including August 1, 2019 (the “Interim Interest Period”) at the rate of 3.85% per annum (the “Interest Rate”), shall be due and payable on the disbursement date of the Loan. In the event that disbursement occurs on the first of the month, then there shall be no payment of interim interest and the first payment due from Borrower hereunder shall be in accordance with subsection (b) below.

(b) Thereafter, monthly installments of interest only on the unpaid principal balance of the Note at the Interest Rate, shall be due and payable in 119 consecutive monthly installments commencing on September 1, 2019 and continuing on the first day of each calendar month thereafter (a “Payment Date”), with each such installment to be in the sum of $163,625.00, without deduction or set-off.

(c) In the event the Loan is prepaid in part pursuant to Section 2.6 below, then the monthly installment amount shall be adjusted based upon the Interest Rate, interest-only payments, and the then-outstanding principal balance of the Loan after the application of such partial principal prepayment.

(d) The unpaid principal balance of the Note, all accrued unpaid interest thereon (if not sooner paid), and all other amounts owing to Lender under the Loan Documents shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date.

2.4 Application of Payments. Each payment received by Lender with respect to the Note shall be applied: first, to the payment of any Prepayment Premium; second, to the payment of any Late Charge or other such Charges as provided in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents; third, to the repayment of any amounts advanced by Lender in accordance with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for insurance premiums, taxes, assessments, or for preservation or protection of the collateral covered by the Loan Documents (including all legal costs associated therewith); fourth, to the payment of accrued unpaid interest on the Note, and the balance, if any, shall be applied to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of the Note (subject to the terms hereof), or in such other order or proportion of said obligations as Lender may determine. Interest due hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year (composed of twelve 30-day months) except the payment due under Section 2.3(a) above which shall be calculated on the actual number of days in the Interim Interest Period. All payments on the Loan shall be made by automated clearing house (ACH) auto-debit funds transfer initiated by Lender and/or its agents.

2.5 Late Payment Charge. If any principal, interest or any other sums due under the Loan Documents is not received by Lender by the later of (a) the Payment Date or (b) the date specified by applicable Law as the last date that must pass before Lender may legally charge a Late Charge, Borrower shall pay to Lender a Late Charge 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. The Late Charge shall be due and payable on the next Payment Date thereafter, whether or not Lender shall have billed Borrower for such charges, or upon written demand if there shall be no succeeding Payment Date thereafter. Any such amount shall be secured by the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges that the Late Charge is a fair and reasonable estimate, considering all of the circumstances existing on the date of execution of this Agreement, of the cost the Lender will incur by reason of such late payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Loan is not paid in full on the Maturity Date, a Late Charge will not be assessed on the principal balance of the Loan (provided, however, the foregoing shall in no event be construed to limit any of Lender’s rights or remedies available to it in such event, including, but not limited to assessment and collection of interest at the Default Rate).

2.6 Prepayment. Borrower shall not have the right to prepay all or any part of the Loan at any time except as expressly provided for herein. Borrower shall have the right to prepay, in full or in part, the Loan, at any time and from time to time but which right to prepay the Loan in part shall be limited to one time per Loan Year, provided that, as conditions precedent, Borrower: (i) gives Lender not less than thirty (30) days prior Notice of Borrower’s intention to prepay the Loan, which notice shall be revocable by Borrower; (ii) pays to Lender the Prepayment Premium, if any, then due and payable to Lender; and (iii) pays to Lender all other amounts then due under the Loan Documents. If the Loan is prepaid in part, then the applicable Prepayment Premium due shall only apply to the principal amount of the Loan being prepaid in part. If all or any portion of the Prepayment Premium calculation in this Section 2.6 and in the definition of Prepayment Premium shall be amended, altered, severed, voided or determined to be not enforceable by any court or other governmental entity, or if Borrower brings an action or raises as a defense to a suit brought by Lender that the Prepayment Premium is void and/or unenforceable, the entire voluntary prepayment privilege set forth in this Section 2.6 shall be deemed null and void, and of no further force and effect. Commencing on the Payment Date that is three months prior to the Maturity Date, provided no Event of Default then exists or the Loan has not been accelerated, Borrower may prepay the full outstanding principal balance of the Loan, at Par. If the prepayment of the Loan occurs on a date other than the Maturity Date, interest shall be calculated based upon the actual days including the day of prepayment.

2.7 Savings Clause; Severability. Notwithstanding anything in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary, if at any time the Interest Rate, together with all fees, charges, and other amounts that are treated as interest on the Loan under applicable Law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by Lender in accordance with applicable Law, the Interest Rate, together with all Charges, shall be limited to the maximum lawful rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 2.7 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to Lender in respect of other periods shall be increased (but not above the maximum lawful rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon to the date of repayment, shall have been received by Lender. Any amount collected by Lender in excess of that which can be spread over the life of the Loan in accordance with this Section 2.7 shall be promptly refunded to Borrower and shall be deemed by the parties to never have been charged at all.

(c) Subject to the terms of the Condominium Documents (and the rights and obligations of the Condominium Board thereunder), Borrower shall maintain all curbs, drives and parking areas existing at the Property as of the Closing Date, if any, and Borrower shall maintain at all times a number of parking spaces equal to or greater than the greatest of (i) the number required by any Laws or any governmental body, agency or authority having jurisdiction over Borrower or the Property, and (ii) the number (if any) required by the terms of all Leases.

(d) The initial manager of the Property shall be New York City Properties, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, an Affiliate of Borrower. In the event that Borrower desires to replace the initial manager after the Closing Date, Borrower shall submit a written request to Lender for prior approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that Lender shall be deemed to have approved such request if the replacement manager is Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx, JLL, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, or CBRE. Any leasing agent of the Property, if other than Borrower or the foregoing party, shall be first approved in writing by Lender. The maximum property management fee shall be five percent (5%) of gross rentals at the Property. Borrower shall employ all property management or leasing agents pursuant to agreement(s) reasonably acceptable to Lender until the Indebtedness has been paid in full and the Obligations have been fully satisfied; provided, however, if the Property is managed by the Borrower a written agreement shall not be required. Any such agreement is hereby assigned to Lender and the rights of the manager and leasing agent thereunder shall be subordinated to the Lien of the Security Instrument and such manager and leasing agent shall consent to such subordination and assignment upon request from Lender.

(b) Annual Reporting Requirement. Borrower and Guarantor shall furnish to Lender annual certified Financial Statements, including operating statements for the Property, income statements and balance sheets for Borrower, Guarantor, the Property and all Major Tenants (if required to be delivered to Borrower (subject to any confidentiality requirements) under their respective Leases or otherwise received by Borrower), within one hundred twenty (120) days of the end of their respective fiscal year(s).

4.11 Special Purpose Entity; Separateness.

(a) Borrower hereby covenants, until such time as the Indebtedness is fully and finally paid, Borrower shall not:

(i) change or permit to be changed its Governing Documents, if such change would materially and adversely impact the covenants set forth in this Agreement or otherwise violate any prohibited transfer or due on sale provisions set forth in the Loan Documents;

(b) The Governing Documents of Borrower shall at all times materially comply with each of the representations, warranties, covenants, and provisions set forth in Section 4.11(a).

4.12 Leases and Possessory Estates.

(a) Leasing. Borrower shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to lease and keep all of the Improvements fully leased. Any and all such Leases must comply with the provisions hereof. Upon Lender’s request, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a true, complete and correct copy of all Leases. As of the Closing Date, Lender has received from Borrower the Leases described in Schedule A attached hereto. Borrower shall not amend, modify, permit an assignment or sublease, supplement, terminate, cancel or rescind any Lease after the execution thereof without the prior written consent of Lender, except such consent shall not be required for such actions as to Leases not with Major Tenants that are taken in accordance with normal and prudent property management practices. Additionally, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, (i) request or consent to the subordination of any Lease to any Lien subordinate to the Security Instrument; or (ii) exercise any right to relocate any tenant outside the Property pursuant to any right set forth in a Lease. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall impose an obligation on Borrower to prevent any tenants under their respective Leases from engaging in any activities expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of such Leases, provided that such Leases existed as of the Closing Date or were entered into in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Lease Form. Except for Leases otherwise approved in writing by Lender, Borrower shall only execute Leases on the form of tenant lease approved by Lender as part of the underwriting of the Loan (the “Form Lease”) or as may be approved by Lender thereafter. Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, which may be granted or withheld in Lender’s sole reasonable discretion, amend, modify or alter the Form Lease and Borrower shall reimburse Lender any of its costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, for the review of the Form Lease, including any proposed revisions thereto, or for the review of proposed Leases, any extensions, modifications and amendments to Leases. If Borrower requests Lender to review and/or execute any non-disturbance and attornment agreements with future tenants of the Property (as applicable), Lender will only enter into such agreements which are on Lender’s then-current standard form of such agreement. Any other form or changes to Lender’s then-current standard form submitted by Borrower or tenant are subject to Lender’s review, and shall be subject to payment by Borrower of Lender’s reasonable actual out-of-pocket legal fees (internal or external counsel). Borrower shall utilize the Form Lease in leasing all or any part of the Improvements and all Leases must (i) be at competitive market rents; (ii) have lease terms of not less than three (3) years and (iii) contain a written provision acceptable to Lender whereby all rights of the tenant under the Lease are subordinated to the Liens granted in the Loan Documents or may be made superior to the lien of the Security Instrument at Lender’s option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may make modifications to the Form Lease as may be required or necessary in order to maintain compliance with applicable Law and negotiate changes to the Form Lease with prospective tenants provided such changes are commercially reasonable, negotiated in the ordinary course of business of owning and operating the Property in a prudent and sound businesslike manner and otherwise consistent with normal and prudent property management practices. Borrower shall not enter into any future Major Tenant Lease without obtaining Lender’s prior written consent and Borrower shall notify Lender in writing of all prospective Major Tenants, and shall deliver to Lender, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, a copy of the prospective Major Tenant’s current financial statement, if required by such Major Tenant’s respective lease or otherwise provided to Borrower (subject to any confidentiality requirements), and the most recent Dun & Bradstreet credit report (if available) on said prospective Major Tenant. The financial statement delivered to Lender pursuant to this Section 4.12(b) shall be certified as true and correct by the Major Tenant or, if available, by a certified public accountant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lender fails to approve or disapprove a new Lease (or modification to an existing Lease) with a Major Tenant pursuant a request to approve such Lease within ten (10) Business Days after the final (negotiated) version of the Lease (including all exhibits), a current rent roll for the Property, the most current quarterly operating statement for the Property and all tenant credit information has been delivered and received by Lender, clearly marked “Lease Review – Time Sensitive Response Required”, Borrower shall send a second notice by way of certified mail or overnight courier clearly marked in the same fashion. If after five (5) Business Days from receipt of the second notice, Lender has not approved or disapproved same, the Lease shall be deemed approved by Lender. If all of the required information was not provided initially or additional information is reasonably required by Lender to render a decision on the Lease, the time to respond will commence upon Lender’s receipt of all reasonably required information.

(c) Performance. Borrower shall (i) duly and punctually perform and comply with any and all material covenants and agreements which are binding on the landlord under any Lease; (ii) enforce, short of termination, the performance by each tenant under its respective Lease of all of said tenant’s obligations thereunder; (iii) appear and provide appropriate defense, with reasonable diligence, in any action or proceeding in any way connected with any Lease; and (iv) deliver to Lender such further information, and execute and deliver to Lender such further assurances, assignments, and confirmations of Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents with respect to the Leases and Rents as Lender may reasonably request. Without Lender’s prior written consent, Borrower shall not (A) do or knowingly permit to be done anything to impair the value of any of the Leases; (B) except for security or similar deposits, collect any Rents or other payments due under any of the Leases more than one (1) month in advance of the time when the same becomes due under the terms of any Lease; (C) except as expressly provided in the Leases, discount any future Rents or other payments due under any of the Leases; or (D) assign or grant a security interest in or to any of the Leases or any Rents due thereunder, other than in accordance with the terms, provisions, or obligations contained in the Loan Documents. Borrower shall notify Lender in writing of any default (of which Borrower has actual knowledge) under any Lease. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its sole option, upon the occurrence of any default by Borrower under any Lease, to pay any sum required or perform any obligation required to cure such default and Borrower shall repay on demand any and all such amounts incurred by Lender, including interest on such amount at the Default Rate.

(d) Estoppel Certificates. Borrower shall deliver to Lender, upon request, tenant estoppel certificates from each commercial lessee at the Property in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, including, if applicable, the form of estoppel certificate for a particular tenant that was accepted by Lender on or prior to the Closing Date (provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to deliver such certificates more frequently than one time in any calendar year unless a default then exists under the Loan Documents).

(e) Termination Fees. Borrower shall deposit all Termination Fees from Major Tenants and those in excess of One Hundred Thousand and NO/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) (whether or not Lender’s consent to such termination is required) into a cash collateral account controlled by Lender and use such Termination Fees to retrofit or build out the applicable premises for a new tenant(s) under terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Any excess or unused Termination Fees deposited shall be released to Borrower upon the earlier of (i) completing the re-leasing and build-out of replacement tenant space(s) provided that (A) any/all replacement leases aggregate to an annual rental income equal to or greater than the then-current annual rental income for the terminated tenant(s) at the time of the termination, or (B) the then loan-to-value ratio of the Loan given effect to any and all replacement tenant(s) is equal to or less than 50% as reasonably determined by Lender; or (ii) full payment and satisfaction of the Loan and all of Borrower’s and Carveout Guarantor’s obligations under the Loan Documents. If an Event of Default exists under the Loan Documents or if (i) or (ii) above have not been satisfied as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, all Termination Fees shall be delivered to Lender and Lender may apply the Termination Fees, including any Termination Fees held in a cash collateral account, in such order and manner of application as Lender may elect (notwithstanding the fact that the amount owing thereon may not then be due and payable or that the Indebtedness may otherwise be adequately secured).

(f) Miscellaneous Licenses, Leases and other Possessory Estates. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, and subject to the terms of the Condominium Declaration and the rights of any tenants under their respective Leases, Borrower shall not grant any Person any possessory interest wherein such Person shall have the right to attach to any exterior portion of the Improvements or on any portion of the Real Property telecommunication, renewable energy or similar equipment, including, but not limited to: satellite dishes, antennas, cable routers, solar panels, wind turbines, etc. unless such equipment is solely providing service to the Property.

4.13 Miscellaneous Property Agreements. Borrower shall duly and punctually perform and comply in all material respects with any and all covenants and written agreements which are binding on the Borrower under any deed, sublease, or other form of conveyance, or any other agreement pursuant to which Borrower grants or is granted a possessory interest in the Property.

Article V

NEGATIVE COVENANTS

Borrower hereby unconditionally covenants and agrees with Lender, until the Indebtedness has been paid in full and the Obligations have been paid, fully performed and discharged, as follows:

5.1 Use Violations. Borrower will not use, maintain, operate or occupy, or allow the use, maintenance, operation or occupancy of, the Property in any manner which (a) violates any Laws; (b) may be dangerous, unless safeguarded as required by Law and/or appropriate insurance; (c) constitutes a public or private nuisance; or (d) makes void, voidable or cancellable, or increases the premium of, any insurance then in force with respect thereto.

5.4 Change of Name or Address.

Borrower shall bear all out-of-pocket costs actually incurred by Lender in connection with any such change including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees.

5.5 ERISA. 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 under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) to be a non-exempt (under a statutory or administrative class exemption) prohibited transaction under ERISA or result in a violation of a state statute regulating governmental plans.

5.6 Zoning. Subject to (x) the terms of the Condominium Documents (and the rights and obligations of the Condominium Board thereunder) with respect to any Common Elements (as defined in the Condominium Documents) and (y) the terms of the Leases and the rights of the tenants thereunder, Borrower will not (a) initiate, support or acquiesce in any zoning reclassification of the Property, seek any variance under existing zoning ordinances applicable to the Property or use or permit the use of the Property in a manner which would result in such use becoming a non-conforming use under applicable zoning ordinances; (b) modify, amend or supplement any of the Permitted Encumbrances; (c) impose any restrictive covenants or encumbrances upon the Property, or execute or file any subdivision plat affecting the Property, or consent to the annexation of the Property to any municipality; (d) permit or suffer the Property to be used by the public or any Person in such manner as would make possible a colorable claim of adverse usage or possession or of any implied dedication or easement; (e) take any actions which results in the Property no longer being separately assessed for real property tax purposes as a separate tax lot or lots; (f) assign, transfer or in any manner change any certificates, licenses, authorizations, registrations, permits and/or approvals without first receiving the written consent of Lender; or (g) consent to the formation of any owner/tenant association or road improvement district affecting the Property.

5.7 Mineral Rights. Borrower agrees that the making of any oil, gas or mineral lease, or the sale or conveyance of any mineral interest or right to explore for minerals under, through or upon the Property, would impair the value of the Property and Borrower will not permit any drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal or production of any minerals from the surface or the sub-surface of the Real Property regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or extraction thereof. Borrower shall have no right, power or authority to lease the Property, or any part thereof, for oil, gas or other mineral purposes, or to grant, assign or convey any mineral interest of any nature, or the right to explore for oil, gas and other minerals, without first obtaining Lender’s express written permission therefor. Whether or not Lender shall consent to such Lease or grant of mineral rights, Lender shall receive the entire consideration to be paid for any such Lease or grant of mineral rights, with the same to be applied to the Loan notwithstanding the fact that the amount owing thereon may not then be due and payable or that the Loan is otherwise adequately secured. The acceptance of such consideration shall in no way impair the Lien of the Security Instrument on the Property or cure any existing Event of Default.

5.8 Alteration, Removal, Building and Change in Use of Property. Subject to (x) the terms of the Condominium Documents (and the rights and obligations of the Condominium Board thereunder) with respect to the Common Elements and (y) the terms of the Leases and the rights and obligations of the tenants thereunder (it being agreed and acknowledged that Lender shall not have any consent rights with respect to any alterations or other matters described in this Section 5.8 to the extent such alterations or other matters are permitted under the terms of the Condominium Documents and/or applicable Leases without Borrower consent), Borrower will not permit the following without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld: (a) any structural alteration of, or addition to, the Improvements now or hereafter situated upon the Real Property, or the addition of any new buildings or other structure(s) thereto, other than (i) the erection or removal of non-load bearing interior walls or alterations required by the terms of Leases which have been approved by Lender or which are not subject to Lender’s review, comment and approval, or (ii) making other immaterial alterations or improvements to the Property consistent with the ownership and operation relating to the Existing Use or otherwise as approved in writing by Lender; (b) the removal, transfer, sale or lease of the Fixtures and Security Property, except that the renewal, replacement or substitution of broken, obsolete or worn out Fixtures and Security Property may be made in the normal course of business as long as replacement or substituted items are of like or better quality, value and utility as the removed items were in their original condition; (c) building or constructing upon any portion of the Property, any building, structure or improvement of any kind whatsoever, the building or construction of which has not been previously approved by Lender in writing, which approval shall be at the discretion of Lender; and (d) the use of any of the Improvements now or hereafter situated on the Real Property for any purpose other than the Existing Use and related facilities.

5.9 Liens, Charges and Encumbrances. Borrower will not permit to be created or to exist in respect of the Property or any part thereof any Lien on parity with, superior to or inferior to any of the Liens of the Loan Documents, except for the Permitted Encumbrances. Upon the creation of any Lien on the Property other than a Permitted Encumbrance, including without limitation a Lien resulting from or arising out of a breach of a Permitted Encumbrance, Borrower shall promptly (but not less than forty-five (45) days after written notice of such Lien is sent to Borrower by Lender, which forty-five (45) day period shall be tolled if Borrower is contesting such Lien in good faith) pay or otherwise discharge all lawful claims and demands of mechanics, materialmen, laborers, realtors, brokers and others which if unpaid, might result in, or permit the creation of, a Lien, charge or encumbrance upon the Property or any part thereof, or on the Rents, arising therefrom. Notwithstanding the foregoing and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may contest (or permit to be contested), at no expense to Lender, by appropriate legal proceedings promptly initiated and conducted with due diligence, in accordance with all applicable statutes, laws, and ordinances, mechanics’, materialmen’s and other such Liens filed against the Property in accordance with the terms hereof. Borrower shall give Notice to Lender of its intent to bring such action and Lender may, in Lender’s discretion, require Borrower to either: (i) post a bond or other collateral satisfactory to Lender (and acceptable to the title company insuring the Security Instrument to insure over any Lien described in this Section 5.9); or (ii) provide Lender with a cash deposit in an amount necessary to pay any and all costs associated with having the Lien released, which deposit may be used by Lender to satisfy any Lien described in this Section 5.9 (in the event Borrower is unsuccessful contesting such Lien) within a period of ten (10) Business Days after written notice is sent to Borrower requiring the posting of the bond or other collateral.

(viii) Terrorism. Insurance covering losses resulting from acts of terrorism;

(ix) Law & Ordinance. A policy or policies providing “Ordinance or Law Coverage” or “Enforcement” endorsements in amounts that are customarily required by other institutional mortgage lenders originating loans on properties similar to the Property, are otherwise commercially reasonably or are otherwise required by Law, if any of the Improvements or the use of the Property shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses or the ability to rebuild the Improvements is restricted or prohibited; and

Evidence of Insurance for any such renewal policy can be in the form of an insurance binder, with the policy of said insurance to follow on or before the expiration date of such insurance binder. Without limiting the required endorsements to insurance policies, Borrower further agrees that all such policies shall provide that proceeds thereunder shall be payable directly to Lender, its successors and assigns, pursuant and subject to a Non-Contributory Standard Lender Clause and a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement or an equivalent if approved by Lender, or otherwise made a part of such policy in favor of Lender, and that Lender, its successors and assigns, shall be named as an additional insured under all liability insurance policies.

Approval of any insurance by Lender shall not be a representation of the solvency of any insurer or the sufficiency of any amount of insurance.

(d) Remedial Rights. In the event Borrower fails to provide, maintain, keep in force or deliver and furnish to Lender the Evidence of Insurance required by this Agreement or evidence of their renewal as required herein, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, procure such insurance and Borrower shall pay all amounts advanced by Lender, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from and after the date advanced by Lender until actually repaid by Borrower, promptly upon demand by Lender. Any amounts so advanced by Lender, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by the Security Instrument and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the Indebtedness. Lender shall not be responsible for nor incur any liability for the insolvency of the insurer or other failure of the insurer to perform, even though Lender has caused the insurance to be placed with the insurer after failure of Borrower to furnish such insurance.

6.2 Borrower’s Casualty Obligations.

(a) General Requirements. In the event of any damage to or loss or destruction of the Property (“Casualty”), Borrower shall: (i) promptly notify Lender of such event and take such steps as shall be necessary to preserve any undamaged portion of the Property, (ii) promptly pay all required insurance deductibles, and (iii) subject to the terms hereof and the terms of the Condominium Documents (and the respective rights and obligations of the Condominium Board and any unit owners thereunder), promptly commence and diligently pursue to completion (taking into account the time necessary to adjust the loss, obtain permits and enter into restoration contracts) the restoration, replacement and rebuilding of the Property, as nearly as possible to their value, condition and character immediately prior to the Casualty (collectively, the “Restoration”); provided, however, in the event Lender applies the insurance proceeds to the Indebtedness, pursuant to Section 6.3, Borrower shall have no obligation to commence the Restoration. The Restoration shall be completed in a good and workmanlike manner, in accordance with all applicable Laws, and with other provisions for the preservation of the security hereunder reasonably established by Lender, including, the Restoration Conditions (as defined below).

(b) Settlement. Borrower may settle and adjust all insurance claims up to Five Hundred Thousand and NO/00 Dollars ($500,000.00) directly with the insurance company without the prior consent of Lender and the net proceeds will be disbursed to Borrower for the Restoration subject to the following: (i) no Event of Default then exists, (ii) Borrower uses the proceeds of any claim for the Restoration, (iii) local building and zoning Laws allow the Property to be rebuilt to its condition prior to the Casualty and for the Existing Use, and (iv) the claim is settled on or before the date that is one hundred eighty days (180) after the date of any such Casualty. Any such proceeds that are not promptly utilized for Restoration shall be applied against the Indebtedness, in the order and manner determined by Lender (provided that to the extent that any Indebtedness shall remain outstanding after such application, such unpaid Indebtedness shall continue in full force and effect and Borrower shall not be excused in the payment thereof).

6.3 Lender’s Rights.

(a) Insured Casualty. In the event of any Casualty which is covered, in whole or in part, by insurance described in Section 6.1 or any other insurance maintained by Borrower with respect to the Property, then:

(i) Except as expressly provided in Section 6.2(b), Lender shall have the right to, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower, and is hereby authorized and empowered by Borrower to settle, adjust or compromise any claims for damage, loss or destruction thereunder. Unless an Event of Default then exists under the Loan Documents, Lender shall consult with Borrower (but shall not be required to obtain Borrower’s consent) regarding any such settlement, adjustment or compromise;

(ii) Each insurance company concerned is hereby authorized and directed to make payment therefor directly to Lender; and

(iii) Borrower or Lender, as the case may be, shall apply the insurance proceeds, first, to reimburse Lender for all actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, adjustors’ and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with the collection of such proceeds, and, second, at Lender’s option, (A) in payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness, at Par (so long as no Event of Default then exists) in the order and manner determined by Lender (provided that to the extent that any Indebtedness shall remain outstanding after such application, such unpaid Indebtedness shall continue in full force and effect and Borrower shall not be excused in the payment thereof); (B) to the cure of any default hereunder; or (C) to the Restoration, in whole or in part, of the portion of the Property so damaged, lost or destroyed, provided, that, in the opinion and discretion of Lender, either: (1) the insurance proceeds so collected are sufficient to cover the cost of the Restoration or repair of the damage or destruction with respect to which such proceeds were paid; or (2) the insurance proceeds so collected are not sufficient alone to cover the cost of the Restoration or repair but are sufficient therefor when taken together with funds provided and made available, and deposited into cash collateral account controlled by Lender, by Borrower from other sources. In the event Lender shall make such insurance proceeds available to Borrower, subject to the Restoration Conditions, for the purpose of effecting such Restoration, Lender shall not be obligated to see to the proper application of such insurance proceeds nor shall the amount of funds so released or used be deemed to be payment of or on account of the Loan. Lender shall have sole and exclusive dominion and control over such proceeds.

(iv) If Lender elects to apply the insurance proceeds to the Indebtedness and such proceeds are insufficient to pay the Indebtedness in full, Lender may declare the remaining unpaid Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable in full, at Par.

(b) Release of Proceeds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and provided no default then exists under the Loan Documents (provided Borrower shall have the right to cure such default within any applicable cure period), in the event of loss or damage to the Property by fire, earthquake, other catastrophe or event for which insurance has been maintained by Borrower, and the amount of such loss or damage does not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and does not result in any spill, seepage, discharge, emission or other release of any Hazardous Substances at or about the Property which materially adversely affects the marketability of title to the Property, or the usability, potential for development or market value of the Property, any of the Leases or the Rents (as reasonably determined by Lender), Lender hereby agrees to allow the proceeds of insurance to be used for the Restoration and to release such insurance proceeds to Borrower as the Restoration progresses, subject to the following conditions (collectively, the “Restoration Conditions”):

(i) the Improvements shall be at least eighty percent (80%) leased after Restoration pursuant to Leases that have tenants in occupancy and paying rent pursuant to their respective Lease, more than twelve (12) months of term remaining following the estimated completion of the Restoration and been approved in writing by Lender (if approval is required under the terms of the Loan Documents);

(ii) the Restoration shall be completed in accordance with the terms hereof no later than ninety (90) days prior to the Maturity Date;

(iii) the plans and specifications for the Restoration shall have been approved in writing by Lender in advance;

(iv) at all times during the Restoration, Borrower has deposited with Lender funds which, when added to the insurance proceeds received by Lender, are sufficient to complete the Restoration in accordance with the approved plans and specifications, and all applicable building codes, zoning ordinances, regulations and Laws, and the funds on deposit with Lender are sufficient to complete the Restoration of the Property as certified to Lender by an inspecting architect/engineer reasonably approved by Lender and Borrower;

(v) Borrower provides suitable completion, payment and performance bonds, and builders’ all risk insurance in such amounts, with such deductibles and upon such other terms and conditions as are acceptable to Lender, together with all necessary licenses and permits for such Restoration in form and amount acceptable to Lender;

(vi) Lender shall have the option, upon the completion of the Restoration of the Property, to apply any surplus insurance proceeds remaining after the completion of the Restoration to the reduction, at Par, of the outstanding principal balance of the Note, notwithstanding the fact that the amount owing thereon may not then be due and payable or that said Loan is otherwise adequately secured;

(vii) the insurance proceeds and any other funds held by Lender shall be disbursed by Lender no more often than once per quarter and in amounts of not less than $50,000 each, except the final disbursement may be in an amount less than $50,000;

(viii) Lender’s obligation to make any such disbursement shall be conditioned upon Lender’s receipt of written certification from Lender’s inspecting architect/engineer (whose fees shall be reimbursed to Lender by Borrower) that all construction and work for which such disbursement is requested has been completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications and in accordance with all applicable building codes, zoning ordinances and all other Laws and, further, that Borrower has deposited with Lender sufficient funds to complete such Restoration; and

(ix) Lender shall be entitled to require and to impose such other conditions to the release of such funds as would be customarily required and imposed by institutional mortgage lenders or that are otherwise commercially reasonable.

Borrower’s failure to timely commence Restoration and diligently pursue the completion thereof, subject to the Restoration Conditions, will constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, provided that, it shall not be an Event of Default if the Condominium Board fails to restore any of the Common Elements, or a Tenant fails to restore its premises to the extent it is obligated to do so under its Lease, so long as Borrower has used commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the Condominium Documents and/or the applicable Lease in order to enforce the Condominium Board’s, or such Tenant’s, obligations under the Condominium Documents and/or such Leases. Furthermore, Borrower’s misappropriation of the insurance proceeds received directly from the insurance company shall trigger recourse liability pursuant to Section 10.1(c) of this Agreement.

6.4 Condemnation.

(a) Borrower’s Obligations; Proceedings. Borrower covenants and agrees to provide Lender with immediate Notice of any actual or threatened (in writing) commencement of any proceedings under eminent domain, including, but not limited to any taking by eminent domain, recovery for inverse condemnation or by deed in lieu thereof, whether permanent or temporary, of all or any part of the Property including any easement or any appurtenance thereto, including any change in grade of any right of way, street, or public place (collectively, a “Taking”) and to deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served to Borrower in connection with any Taking. Lender may participate in any such proceedings, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, and Borrower from time to time will execute and deliver to Lender all instruments reasonably requested by Lender or as may be required to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings and shall consult and cooperate with Lender, its attorneys and agents, in the carrying on and defense of any such proceedings. No settlement of any such proceeding shall be made by Borrower without Lender’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) Lender’s Rights to Awards. All Taking proceeds, including awards or proceeds of sale in lieu of condemnation, and all judgments, decrees and awards for injury or damage to the Property (an “Award” or “Awards”) that are received by or made payable to Borrower are hereby assigned and shall be paid to Lender. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender, at any time, upon request, free, clear and discharged of any encumbrance of any kind whatsoever, any further assignments and/or other instruments deemed reasonably necessary by Lender for the purpose of validly and sufficiently assigning Awards made to Lender (including the assignment of any Award from the United States government at any time after the allowance of the claim therefor, the ascertainment of the amount thereof and the issuance of the warrant for payment thereof). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if no Event of Default then exists, in the event any Awards are equal to or less than $500,000.00, Borrower shall be entitled to receive the proceeds for Restoration, or to the extent such proceeds are not promptly utilized for Restoration, for application against the Indebtedness, in the order and manner determined by Lender (provided that to the extent that any Indebtedness shall remain outstanding after such application, such unpaid Indebtedness shall continue in full force and effect and Borrower shall not be excused in the payment thereof).

(c) Application of Awards. Lender shall have the right to apply any Awards as follows: first, to reimburse Lender for all actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with such Taking, and, second, at Lender’s option, (i) in payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness, at Par (so long as no Event of Default then exists), in the order and manner determined by Lender (provided that to the extent that any Indebtedness shall remain outstanding after such application, such unpaid Indebtedness shall continue in full force and effect and Borrower shall not be excused in the payment thereof); (ii) to the cure of any default hereunder; or (iii) to the Restoration, in whole or in part, of the portion of the Property remaining after the Taking; provided, however, Lender shall hold said Awards without any allowance of interest, and make the same available to restore, replace and rebuild the Property, as nearly as possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to the Taking if such Taking does not result in the following, as determined by Lender, in Lender’s discretion: (A) a Material Adverse Change, (B) a violation of any Laws (including any zoning ordinances), or (C) a default under any Lease. In the event that Lender elects to make the Awards available to reimburse Borrower for the cost of the Restoration of the Improvements on the Real Property, such proceeds shall be made available in the manner and under the same conditions as required under Section 6.3(b). In the event Lender applies such Awards to the reduction of the outstanding Loan or if any surplus remains out of the Award after payment of such cost of Restoration, such amounts shall be applied on account of the Loan at Par, so long as no Event of Default then exists (notwithstanding the fact that the amount owing thereon may not then be due and payable or that the Loan may otherwise be adequately secured). If the Taking results in a Material Adverse Change, as determined by Lender, and Lender elects to apply the Awards to the Indebtedness and such proceeds are insufficient to pay the Indebtedness in full Lender may declare the remaining unpaid Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable in full, at Par.

Borrower’s failure to timely commence Restoration following a Taking and diligently pursue the completion thereof, subject to the terms hereof, will constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents. Furthermore, Borrower’s misappropriation of the Award received directly from the condemning authority in violation of Section 6.4(b) above shall trigger recourse liability pursuant to Section 10.1(c) of this Agreement.

The Loan-to-Value Threshold, Loan-to-Purchase Threshold, and Debt Service Coverage Threshold shall be collectively defined as the “Loan Assumption Thresholds,” which satisfaction shall be reasonably determined by Lender based upon Lender’s then current underwriting methodology for similar properties, including, but not limited to both historical operating reviews and performance and forward-looking proforma underwriting, property condition, operating history, current occupancy, net operating income, debt service coverage, tenant exposures and financial conditions, tenant lease terms and lease rollover, market rents, any anticipated change in real estate taxes and/or assessments due with respect to the property sale/transfer, property location, financial condition and creditworthiness of borrower (i.e., the Transferee), operating and management experience of borrower (i.e., the Transferee), and then current market conditions. Borrower and/or Transferee shall have the right, in the event the Loan Assumption Thresholds are not satisfied, to make a partial prepayment of the Loan to satisfy the Loan Assumption Thresholds; provided, however, any such partial prepayment permitted in this Section shall be subject to payment of the Prepayment Premium. The right to transfer the Property pursuant to this Section 7.2(c) shall only be applicable to the Borrower and not to any Transferee.

7.3 Dealing with Transferees. In the event the ownership of the Property, or any part thereof, shall become vested in a Transferee, whether with or without the prior written consent of Lender, Lender may, without notice to Borrower, deal with such Transferee with reference to the Property and the Loan Documents, in the same manner and to the same extent as with Borrower without in any way vitiating or discharging Borrower’s liability hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents. No sale, transfer or conveyance of the Property, no forbearance on the part of Lender and no extension of time given by Lender to Borrower for the payment of the Note shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of Borrower, either in whole or in part, unless expressly set forth in writing executed by Lender.

7.4 Secondary Financing. A pledge of any or up to all or substantially all of the assets of any Key Principal as security for and in connection with obtaining corporate line financing, without Lender’s consent, shall be permitted provided that, notwithstanding any such pledge, (i) the Transfer Conditions are all satisfied (or waived by Lender), and (ii) the commencement of a foreclosure of any such pledge which, in Lender’s commercially reasonable discretion, is likely to result in a violation of the Transfer Conditions that is not dismissed within sixty (60) days of the filing of such foreclosure, shall constitute an Event of Default. In no event shall pledges of direct ownership interests in Borrower be permitted except in connection with the Loan.

(g) No Further Encumbrances. Borrower creates, places or permits to be created or placed, or through any act or failure to act, acquiesces in the placing of, or allows to remain, any secondary or subordinate Lien, mortgage, deed of trust or security interest of any kind whatsoever (“Subordinate Mortgage”), regardless of whether such Subordinate Mortgage is expressly subordinate to the Liens of the Loan Documents, with respect to the Property, other than the Permitted Encumbrances;

For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, with respect to any use of the phrases “during the continuance of an Event of Default”, “if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,” and similar phrases in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Lender shall not be obligated to accept any cure of a default following the expiration of the applicable cure period, if any, and if, following an Event of Default, Borrower then proffers a cure of such Event of Default, such Event of Default shall only be considered cured within the timeframe of the applicable cure period provided for under the Loan Documents if Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, accepts such proffered cure in writing.

8.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, interest shall automatically begin to accrue at the Default Rate and Lender may, at its option and by or through a trustee, nominee, assignee or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise any or all of the rights and remedies available to Lender at law or in equity, under the terms of the Security Instrument, or any of the following rights, remedies and recourses, either successively or concurrently:

(a) Right to Accelerate. Lender may, without notice, demand, presentment, notice of nonpayment or nonperformance, protest, notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration or any other notice or any other action, all of which are hereby waived by Borrower and all other parties obligated in any manner whatsoever on the Indebtedness, declare the entire unpaid balance of the Indebtedness immediately due and payable, and upon such declaration, the entire unpaid balance of the Indebtedness shall be immediately due and payable.

(b) Lender’s Uniform Commercial Code Remedies. Lender may exercise its rights of enforcement with respect to Security Property under the Code, and in conjunction with, in addition to or in substitution for those rights and remedies:

(i) Lender may without demand or notice to Borrower, enter upon the Property to take possession of, assemble, receive and collect the Security Property, or any part thereof, or to render it unusable;

(ii) Lender may require Borrower to assemble the Security Property and make it available at a place Lender designates which is mutually convenient to allow Lender to take possession or dispose of the Security Property;

(iii) Notice mailed to Borrower as provided in Section 9.1 herein at least ten (10) days prior to the date of public sale of the Security Property or prior to the date after which private sale of the Security Property occurs shall constitute reasonable notice;

(iv) any sale made pursuant to the provisions of this subsection 8.2(b) shall be deemed to have been a public sale conducted in a commercially reasonable manner if held contemporaneously with the sale of the other Property under power of sale as provided herein upon giving the same notice with respect to the sale of the Security Property hereunder as is required for such sale of the other Property under power of sale, and such sale shall be deemed to be pursuant to a security agreement covering both real and personal property under the Code;

(v) in the event of a foreclosure sale, whether made under the terms of the Security Instrument, or under judgment of a court, the Security Property and the other Property, or any portion thereof, may, at the option of Lender, be sold together;

(vi) it shall not be necessary that Lender take possession of the Security Property, or any part thereof, prior to the time that any sale pursuant to the provisions of this subsection 8.2(b) is conducted, and it shall not be necessary that the Security Property or any part thereof be present at the location of such sale;

(vii) prior to application of proceeds of disposition of the Security Property to the Indebtedness, such proceeds shall be applied to the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale or lease, selling, leasing and the like and the reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses incurred by Lender;

(viii) after notification, Lender may sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Security Property, or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at Lender’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery. Borrower shall be liable for all expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale or the like and all attorneys’ fees, legal expenses and all other costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the collection of the Indebtedness and the enforcement of Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents. Lender shall apply the proceeds of the sale of the Security Property against the Indebtedness in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.3 of this Agreement. Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any disposition of the Security Property are insufficient to pay the Indebtedness in full. To the extent not prohibited under applicable Law, Borrower waives all rights of marshaling in respect of the Security Property;

(ix) Lender may dispose of the Security Property in its then present condition, has no duty to repair or clean the Security Property prior to sale and may disclaim warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment and the like with respect to the Security Property, all without affecting the commercial reasonableness of the sale;

(x) any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any xxxx of sale, assignment or other instrument evidencing any foreclosure sale hereunder, the nonpayment of the Loan, the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender having declared all or a part of the Loan to be due and payable, the notice of time, place and terms of sale and of the properties to be sold having been duly given, or any other act or thing having been duly done by Lender, shall be taken as prima facie evidence of the truth of the facts so stated and recited;

(xi) Lender may appoint or delegate any one or more Persons as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any sale held by Lender, including the sending of notices and the conduct of the sale, but in the name and on behalf of Lender; and

The failure to exercise any remedy available to Lender shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights or remedies of Lender under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity.

(d) Prepayments after Event of Default. If, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness is tendered by Borrower and accepted by Lender in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion or is otherwise recovered by Lender (including through application of any reserve funds), such tender or recovery shall be deemed to be a voluntary prepayment by Borrower in violation of the prohibition against prepayment set forth in Section 2.6 hereof, and Borrower shall pay, as part of the Indebtedness, all of the following: (i) all accrued interest and, if such tender and acceptance is not made on a Payment Date, interest that would have accrued on the Indebtedness to, but not including, the next Payment Date and (ii) an amount equal to the Prepayment Premium.

8.3 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds from any sale, lease, or other disposition made pursuant to this Article VIII shall be applied by Lender to the Indebtedness in the following order and priority: (a) to the payment of all expenses of advertising, selling, and conveying the Property or part thereof, and/or prosecuting or otherwise collecting Rents, other payments, proceeds, premiums, or other sums, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and a reasonable fee or commission to the party conducting the sale on behalf of Lender, not to exceed five percent of the proceeds thereof or sums so received; (b) to the remainder of the Indebtedness as follows: first, to the remaining accrued but unpaid interest, second, to the matured portion of principal of the Indebtedness, and third, to prepayment of the unmatured portion, if any, of principal of the Indebtedness applied to installments of principal in inverse order of maturity; (c) the balance, if any and to the extent applicable, remaining after the full and final payment of the Indebtedness and full performance and discharge of the Obligations, to the holder or beneficiary of any inferior Liens covering the Property, if any, in order of the priority of such inferior Liens (Lender shall hereby be entitled to rely exclusively upon a commitment for title insurance issued to determine such Liens and their priority); and (d) the cash balance, if any, to the Borrower. The application of proceeds of sale or other proceeds as otherwise provided herein shall be deemed to be a payment of the Indebtedness like any other payment. The balance of the Indebtedness remaining unpaid, if any, shall remain fully due and owing in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

8.4 Payment of Costs. To the fullest extent allowable under applicable Law, Borrower shall pay all actual out-of-pocket costs incurred or paid by Lender in connection with the Indebtedness, the Obligations, or the Loan Documents (a) in collecting payment, whether or not suit is filed; (b) in defending and/or bringing suit, or if Lender otherwise becomes a party to any suit or proceeding where the Indebtedness, Obligations, or any Loan Documents are involved, or if Lender is required to respond to any service of process, including a subpoena; (c) in foreclosing or taking any other actions to secure possession and exercise Lender’s rights with respect to any collateral; (d) in connection with any bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceeding, or any probate proceeding, involving Borrower, any Guarantor, or any Borrower Control Party which in any way affects the exercise by Lender of its rights and remedies; (e) to otherwise enforce Lender’s rights and remedies pursuant to or which arise out of this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document; (f) in connection with the negotiation, preparation, and execution hereof and of any other Loan Document and any amendment hereto or thereto, or any release, consent, approval, or waiver hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (g) in connection with the making of any advance under the Note; (h) incurred by Lender which are payable or reimbursable by Borrower pursuant to any Loan Document; and (i) which are the obligation of Borrower pursuant to any of the Loan Documents. All such costs shall be and become a part of the Indebtedness. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, all such costs shall be due and payable when incurred and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such costs are paid by Lender until Lender is reimbursed for the respective costs and interest.

8.5 Setoff. In addition to all other rights under any of the Loan Documents, Borrower grants to Lender the right, without any notice or demand, to set off against all money, securities, Termination Fees held by Lender or any agent of Lender, and similar assets of Borrower, now or hereafter in possession of or on deposit with Lender, whether held in a general or special account or deposit, to apply such to any Indebtedness which is due and payable by Borrower to Lender in any order that Lender may determine in Lender’s discretion.

8.6 Miscellaneous.

(a) Right to Perform Borrower’s Covenants. If Borrower has failed to keep or perform any covenant whatsoever contained in any of the Loan Documents, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to any Person to do so, perform or attempt to perform said covenant, and any payment made or expense incurred (individually or collectively, a “Protective Advance”) in the performance or attempted performance of any such covenant shall be and become a part of the Obligations, and Borrower promises to pay to Lender, at the place where the Note is payable, all sums so advanced or paid by Lender, with interest from the date when paid or incurred by Lender at the Default Rate upon the earlier of the date that is ninety (90) days after Lender made the Protective Advance and five (5) Business Days after Borrower receives written demand from Lender. No such payment by Lender shall constitute a waiver of any Event of Default. In addition to the Liens hereof, Lender shall be subrogated to all rights, titles, Liens securing the payment of any debt, claim, tax or assessment for the payment of which Lender may make an advance, or which Lender may pay.

(b) Discontinuance of Remedies. In case Lender shall have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under the Loan Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon same for any reason, Lender shall have the unqualified right so to do, and in such event, Borrower and Lender shall be restored to their former positions with respect to the Indebtedness, the Loan Documents, the Property or otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Lender shall continue as if same had never been invoked.

(c) Other Remedies. In addition to the remedies set forth in this Article and in the Security Instrument, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall, in addition, have all other remedies available to it at law or in equity.

(d) Remedies Cumulative; Non-Exclusive; Etc. All rights, remedies and recourses of Lender granted in the Loan Documents, any other pledge of collateral or otherwise available at law or in equity: (i) shall be cumulative and concurrent; (ii) may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Borrower, the Property or any one or more of them, at the discretion of Lender; (iii) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, it being agreed by Borrower that the exercise or failure to exercise any of same shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy or recourse; (iv) shall be nonexclusive; (v) shall not be conditioned upon Lender exercising or pursuing any remedy in relation to the Property prior to Lender bringing suit to recover the Indebtedness or suit on the Obligations; and (vi) in the event Lender elects to bring suit on the Indebtedness and/or the Obligations and obtains a judgment against Borrower prior to exercising any remedies in relation to the Property, all Liens including the Lien of the Security Instrument, shall remain in full force and effect and may be exercised at Lender’s option.

(e) Partial Release; Etc. Lender may release, regardless of consideration, any part of the Property without, as to the remainder, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing the Lien evidenced by the Loan Documents or affecting the obligations of Borrower or any other party to pay the Indebtedness or perform and discharge the Obligations. For payment of the Indebtedness, Lender may resort to any of the collateral therefor in such order and manner as Lender may elect. No collateral heretofore, herewith or hereafter taken by Lender shall in any manner impair or affect the collateral given pursuant to the Loan Documents, and all collateral shall be taken, considered and held as cumulative. The taking of additional collateral, or the amendment, extension, renewal, or rearrangement of the Indebtedness or Obligations, or any part thereof, shall not release or impair the Lien, or other rights granted by any of the Loan Documents, or affect the liability of Borrower, any endorser, constituent party, or Guarantor, or any other Person or entity obligated for payment or performance of any portion of the Indebtedness or Obligations, or improve the right of any junior lienholder.

(f) Waiver and Release. To the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, Borrower, each Borrower Party and Guarantor, and all endorsers of the Note, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive and release: (i) all benefits that might accrue to Borrower by virtue of any present or future Law exempting the Property from attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any appraisement, stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption, or extension of time for payment; (ii) except as otherwise expressly required in any Loan Documents, all notice of any Event of Default, notice of the exercise of any right, remedy, or recourse provided for under the Loan Documents, or any other notice under or with respect to all of the Loan Documents or any action taken by Lender in connection therewith; (iii) any right to a marshaling of assets or a sale in inverse order of alienation; (iv) any right to be released, or any claim that a release has occurred, by reason of any extension of time or any modification to the terms of any of the Loan Documents, except a party will not be liable for an increase in the amount of principal, or interest on such increased principal, pursuant to any such modification if such principal increase was not contemplated in the Loan Documents (absent such modification) or agreed to in writing by such party; and (v) all rights to the benefits of any statute of limitations, moratorium, or laches now provided or which may hereafter be provided by federal or state Law or pursuant to common law, to the fullest extent such rights can be waived and released pursuant to applicable Law.

(g) No Implied Covenants. There are no, nor shall there be any, implied covenants of good faith and fair dealing or other similar covenants or agreements in any of the Loan Documents. All agreed contractual duties are set forth in the Loan Documents.

(h) Real Property Laws Govern. The remedies in this Article VIII shall be available under and governed by the real property Laws of the State and shall not be governed by the personal property Laws of the State provided Lender elects to proceed as to the Security Property together with the other Property under and pursuant to the real property remedies of this Article VIII.

8.7 Cross Default. This Agreement is also evidenced and/or secured by the terms, conditions and provisions of the Note, Security Instrument, Assignment, and other Loan Documents. The terms, covenants, conditions and agreements of each security instrument shall be considered a part hereof as fully as if set forth herein verbatim. Any default continuing beyond any applicable notice and cure periods under any of the Loan Documents shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the enforcement or attempted enforcement of the Loan Documents now or hereafter held by Lender shall not prejudice or in any manner affect the right of Lender to enforce any other Loan Document.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender may modify any of the Loan Documents for the purposes of completing missing content or correcting erroneous content, without the need for a written amendment, provided that Lender shall send a copy of any such modification to Borrower (which notice may be given by electronic mail) and shall obtain Borrower’s acknowledgment to any such completion or correction, which acknowledgment shall be deemed given if Borrower does not respond to such notice within five (5) Business Days after Borrower’s receipt thereof; provided, however, that Borrower, except in the case of manifest error, shall not be required to execute and deliver any documents, agreements and/or instruments which increase Borrower’s obligations and/or liabilities under the Loan Documents or decrease Borrower’s rights under the Loan Documents, in each case, beyond a de minimis extent. No notice to or demand on Borrower will entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstance.

9.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement together with the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

9.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterpart copies and by the parties hereto on separate counterparts, but all such copies shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart. Any party so executing this Agreement by electronic transmission shall promptly deliver a manually executed counterpart, provided that any failure to do so shall not affect the validity of the counterpart executed by electronic transmission.

9.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign this Agreement in whole or in part without Lender’s prior written consent (subject to the terms of Section 7.2(c) hereof) and Lender at any time may assign this Agreement in whole or in part.

9.8 Interpretation. In this Agreement, unless Lender and Borrower otherwise agree in writing, the singular includes the plural and the plural the singular; words importing any gender include the other genders; references to statutes are to be construed as including all statutory provisions consolidating, amending or replacing the statute referred to; the word “or” shall be deemed to include “and/or”, the words “including”, “includes” and “include” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; references to articles, sections (or subdivisions of sections) or exhibits are to those of this Agreement; and references to agreements and other contractual instruments shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments and other modifications to such instruments, but only to the extent such amendments and other modifications are not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement. Section headings in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all accounting terms shall be interpreted and all accounting determinations shall be made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied. If this Agreement is executed by more than one party as Borrower, the obligations of such Persons will be joint and several.

9.9 No Consequential Damages, Etc. Lender will not be responsible for any damages, consequential, incidental, special, punitive or otherwise, that may be incurred or alleged by any Person, including Borrower and any Guarantor, as a result of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or the use of the proceeds of the Loan.

9.10 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement has been delivered to and accepted by Lender and will be deemed to be made in the State. This Agreement will be interpreted and the rights and liabilities of the parties hereto determined in accordance with the Laws of the State, excluding its conflict of laws rules. Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court in the county or judicial district where the Real Property is located; provided that nothing contained in this Agreement will prevent Lender from bringing any action, enforcing any award or judgment or exercising any rights against Borrower individually, against any security or against any property of Borrower within any other county, state or other foreign or domestic jurisdiction. The venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both Lender and Borrower. Borrower waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Agreement.

9.11 Modification Not an Impairment of Security. Lender, without notice, may release any part of the security described herein or may release any Person liable for the Loan without in any way affecting the priority of the Security Instrument, to the full extent of the Loan remaining unpaid hereunder, upon any part of the security not expressly released. Lender, at its option and within Lender’s discretion, may agree with any party obligated on the Loan or having any interest in the security described herein, to extend the time for payment of any part or all of the Loan, and such agreement shall not, in any way, release or impair the Security Instrument, but shall extend the same as against the title of all parties having any interest in said security, which interest is subject to the Security Instrument. In the event Lender (a) releases, as aforesaid, any part of the security described herein or any Person liable for the Loan; (b) grants an extension of time for the payment of the Note; (c) takes other or additional security for the payment of the Note; or (d) waives or fails to exercise any rights granted in any of the Loan Documents, any said act or omission shall not release Borrower, subsequent purchasers of the Property or any part thereof, or any Guarantor from any obligation or any covenant of any of the Loan Documents, nor preclude Lender from exercising any right, power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted in the event of any other default then made or any subsequent default.

9.12 Replacement Documents. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note or any other Loan Document which is not of public record and, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note or other Loan Document, Borrower, at its expense, will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note or other Loan Document, dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or other Loan Document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.

9.13 Sole Discretion of Lender. Wherever pursuant to this Agreement Lender exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove or to decide that arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall be in the sole discretion of Lender and shall be final and conclusive, except as may be otherwise expressly and specifically provided herein.

9.14 Expenses. Borrower shall pay Lender, upon the execution of this Agreement, and otherwise within five (5) Business Days following demand, all actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the preparation, negotiation and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any modifications thereto, and the collection of all of the Obligations, including but not limited to enforcement actions, relating to the Loan, whether through judicial proceedings or otherwise, or in defending or prosecuting any actions or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (which may include costs of in-house counsel), expenses for auditors, appraisers and environmental consultants, lien searches, recording and filing fees and taxes. Fees and expenses imposed or incurred by Lender in connection with considering any request by Borrower for approval, modification or waiver may include a reasonable processing fee imposed by Lender and legal fees, if counsel is used (including, without limitation, in-house and outside counsel), and shall be paid or reimbursed to Lender by Borrower regardless of whether Lender shall have given such approval or waiver or agreed to such modification.

9.15 UCC Financing Statements. Borrower authorizes Lender to file such financing statements, with or without the signature of Borrower, as Lender may elect, as may be necessary or desirable to perfect the Lender’s Lien in the Security Property. Without limiting any other provision herein, Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to file one or more financing statements and any renewal or continuation statements thereof, describing the Property and the proceeds of the Property, including, without limitation, a financing statement covering “all assets of Borrower, all proceeds therefrom, and all rights and privileges with respect thereto.” Borrower further authorizes Lender to file, with or without any additional signature from Borrower, as Lender may elect, such amendments and continuation statements as Lender may deem necessary or desirable from time to time to perfect or continue the Lender’s Lien in the Security Property. Borrower hereby ratifies any financing statements that may have been filed by Lender in advance of the date hereof to perfect Lender’s security interest in the Security Property.

9.16 Secondary Market. Lender may, at any time, sell, transfer or assign any of the Loan Documents, any or all servicing rights with respect thereto, or grant participations therein or issue mortgage pass-through certificates or other securities evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated or unrated public offering or private placement. Lender may forward to each purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer or participant (collectively, “Investor”), and each prospective Investor, all documents and information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Loan and to Borrower, any Guarantor and the Property, whether furnished by Borrower, any Guarantor or otherwise, as Lender determines necessary or desirable. In connection therewith, Borrower agrees that it shall cooperate with Lender (at Lender’s sole cost and expense) and use commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate the consummation of any such sale, transfer, assignment, participation or grant which may include the execution of more than one Note secured by the Loan Documents, provided that the total amount of indebtedness under such Notes shall not exceed the amount owing by Borrower under the Loan. Lender shall be responsible for all of Borrower’s reasonable expenses incurred in connection with any such sale, transfer, assignment, participation or grant.

9.17 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR CLAIM OF ANY NATURE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY DOCUMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED IN ANY OF SUCH DOCUMENTS. BORROWER AND LENDER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVER IS KNOWING AND VOLUNTARY.

9.18 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of Borrower’s and Guarantor’s obligations under the Loan Documents.

9.19 Electronic Images. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender may create electronic images and destroy paper originals of any imaged documents received or generated by Lender in connection with the Loan. Any such images maintained by Lender as part of its normal business processes shall be given the same legal effect as the paper original(s) thereof. Borrower hereby agrees that Lender may convert any instrument into a “electronic record” under the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (Ohio Uniform Commercial Code Section 1306.01, et seq.) (the “UETA”), and that the image of such instrument in Lender’s possession shall constitute an “authoritative copy” under the UETA.

9.20 Payments Due on Non-Business Days. If the Loan Documents require Borrower to make any payment on a day that is not a Business Day, then: (a) Borrower shall instead pay such amount on the next Business Day (except where the Loan Documents provide otherwise for any particular payment); and (b) notwithstanding any applicable Law to the contrary (including, but not limited to, New York General Construction Law Section 25), Borrower shall not be credited with such payment until the date Borrower actually pays it. Any applicable interest shall continue to accrue on such amount until such date.

Article X

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

10.1 Non-Recourse Liability. Except as hereinafter provided, the liability of Borrower with respect to the payment of principal and interest (and any other sums due except any sums due by Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement or under the Indemnity Agreement) hereunder shall be “non-recourse,” and Lender’s source of satisfaction of the Indebtedness and Borrower’s other obligations under the Loan Documents shall be limited to the Property and Lender’s receipt of the Rents from the Property and any other security or collateral now or hereafter held by Lender. Lender shall not seek to procure payment out of other assets of Borrower, any principal, director, employee, advisor, beneficiary, shareholder, partner, manager, member, trustee, agent or Affiliate of Borrower (but specifically excluding Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement and Indemnity Agreement) each, an “Exculpated Party” and, collectively, the “Exculpated Parties”), nor seek any judgment against Borrower or any Exculpated Parties (other than Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement or the Indemnity Agreement) for any sums that are or may be payable under the Loan Documents, including any claim or judgment (except as hereafter provided) for any deficiency remaining after foreclosure of the Security Instrument. The above provisions shall not be deemed to be a release or impairment of the Loan evidenced by the Note or the security therefor intended by the other Loan Documents, nor be deemed to preclude Lender from exercising its rights to foreclose the Security Instrument or to enforce any of its other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, including but not limited to the Guaranty Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed that the aforementioned limitation on liability shall in no way affect or apply to the continued personal liability of Borrower or any Guarantor, jointly and severally, for all Enforcement Costs and any and all actual out-of-pocket costs, expenses (including Protective Advances), losses and/or damages incurred by Lender as a result of any of the following:

(a) Fraud, willful misconduct or material misrepresentation made by any of the Borrower Parties in connection with the Application, any of the Loan Documents, or any other supporting or due diligence documentation provided by Borrower, Guarantor or any of the other Borrower Parties in connection therewith;

(b) Failure to pay any Real Estate Taxes which accrue prior to Lender taking title to the Property, or to pay assessments, charges for labor or materials, or any other charges that could result in Liens on all or any portion of the Property (except (x) for any Permitted Encumbrances, (y) such charges that are bonded off or discharged in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or (z) to the extent that sums sufficient to pay such amounts have been deposited into a cash collateral account with Lender for the purpose of paying such assessments and charges), provided, however, any such failure shall only trigger recourse liability if at the time of such failure, (A) Borrower had sufficient cash flow (i.e., Borrower has not made any distributions (excluding all commercially reasonable third party operating expenses) from the Property over the previous twelve month period unless Borrower has also reserved funds, on a monthly basis, in an amount that would reasonably be expected to be sufficient to pay such amounts as they become due) from the Property to pay such amounts but failed to do so; or (B) Borrower (x) had insufficient cash flow from the Property to pay such amounts, (y) failed to give Lender immediate written notice that Borrower would have insufficient cash flow from the Property to pay any amounts owed prior to their delinquency, and (z) is not cooperating in good faith with Lender in completing a deed in lieu of foreclosure, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, to the extent Lender has requested a deed in lieu of foreclosure;

(c) Misappropriation of: (i) proceeds of insurance received by or on behalf of Borrower covering all or any portion of the Property, (ii) proceeds received by or on behalf of Borrower from the sale or condemnation of all or any portion of the Property, or (iii) rentals or other income from the Property received by or on behalf of Borrower and not applied to satisfy Borrower’s obligations hereunder and/or under the Loan Documents;

(d) Causing or negligently permitting physical waste, arson or other similar damage to occur in, on or about the Property;

(e) Failure to pay to Lender all unearned advance rentals and security deposits that have been paid to Borrower, a Borrower Affiliate or agent of Borrower by tenants of the Property, which are not delivered to Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents unless such funds have been refunded to such tenants or were applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of any of the Leases;

(f) Borrower’s material amendment, modification, renewal (except as expressly provided for therein), extension, or termination of any Major Tenant Lease without Lender’s consent, if required pursuant to the terms hereof, and the failure to deliver to Lender any Termination Fees (if required pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents), including any amounts paid in connection with the bankruptcies or insolvencies of such tenants, and Borrower’s failure to assign any claims, proofs of claims or other rights relating to the future right to receive payment of such amounts;

(g) Loss by fire, casualty, acts of terrorism, or other events, not compensated by insurance proceeds collected by or remitted to Lender as a result of Borrower’s failure to comply with Lender’s insurance requirements (including the payment of any required deductibles);

(h) Failure to return to Lender or reimburse Lender for all Security Property owned by Borrower taken from the Property by or on behalf of Borrower out of the ordinary course of business and not replaced by items of like or greater value than the original value of the Security Property so removed;

(i) Any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or indemnity obligations under the Indemnity Agreement;

(j) Borrower’s failure to timely pay any amounts payable for all state documentary stamp taxes, recording and transfer taxes, and intangible personal property taxes, if any, which may be levied or assessed against the Loan, or any of the Loan Documents, together with all interest, penalties or charges in connection therewith; and

(k) Borrower’s violation of the terms of the Condominium Documents in any material respect or Borrower’s failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the affirmative and negative covenants described in this Agreement with respect to the Condominium Documents, including, without limitation, (i) without Lender’s prior written consent, Borrower entering into, or consenting to, any amendment of the Condominium Documents that requires the consent of the Borrower or that would materially and adversely affect Borrower’s rights as owner of the Property or Lender’s rights as mortgagee, or (ii) without Lender’s prior written consent, Borrower voting to terminate the Condominium or to dissolve the Association (if any) for any reason.

The obligations of Borrower in subsections (a) through (k) above shall survive (1) foreclosure under the Security Instrument (or Lender’s acceptance of a deed in lieu thereof); or (2) the satisfaction of all Obligations (including the full repayment of the Loan) under the Loan Documents, but only as to claims, or matters which are based upon or arise out of circumstances or conditions which are first created or which first arise or come into existence prior to the events described in clauses (1) and (2) of this sentence,provided, however, the obligations of Borrower and Carveout Guarantor in subsections (a) through (h) and (j) above shall be released twelve (12) months after the Loan is indefeasibly paid in full, subject to the following: (i) if at any time any payment of the principal of or interest under the Note or any other amount paid by Borrower or Carveout Guarantor under the Loan Documents is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or otherwise, Borrower’s and Carveout Guarantor’s obligations shall be reinstated; and (ii) the foregoing release shall not apply to Borrower and Carveout Guarantor’s obligation to defend, indemnify and hold Lender harmless from any claims in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations in subsection (i) above shall be deemed terminated upon the termination of the corresponding obligations pursuant to Section 6.12 of the Indemnity Agreement.

10.2 Full Recourse Liability. Borrower and Guarantor shall become personally liable, jointly and severally, for the entire amount of the Loan (including all principal, interest and other charges associated therewith) and performance under the Loan Documents in the event that: (a) Borrower or any Person having a direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower violates the covenant governing the placing of secondary financing pursuant to Sections 4.11(a)(ix), 7.1(m) or 8.1(g) of this Agreement (except as permitted by Section 7.4 of this Agreement), (b) Borrower or any Person having a direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower violates the covenant restricting Dispositions (other than Permitted Dispositions) pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement, (c) any of the Borrower Parties files a petition in bankruptcy or for the appointment of a receiver (other than a receiver appointed at the written request of Lender) , or commences under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, proceedings for any Borrower Parties’ relief or for the compromise, extension, arrangement or adjustment of Borrower Parties’ obligations, (d) there is filed against any of the Borrower Parties a petition in bankruptcy or for the appointment of a receiver (other than a filing instituted by Lender), or there is commenced under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, proceedings for any Borrower Parties’ relief, or for the compromise, extension, arrangement or adjustment of any of the Borrower Parties’ obligations resulting from Borrower’s breach of the Loan Documents or any of the Borrower Parties collusion in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding filed against any of the Borrower Parties which is not dismissed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the filing of same, (e) there is filed against Borrower any claim by reason of the operation of federal bankruptcy, state insolvency or similar creditors’ rights laws that is based on (i) the Loan being deemed a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer; or (ii) the Loan being deemed a preferential transfer, (f) in the event any Borrower Parties or any Affiliate thereof challenges or disputes the validity or enforceability of any of the provisions of the Loan Documents following a Material Default, seeks to delay or impair the enforcement of Lender’s remedial rights under the Loan Documents following a Material Default under the Loan Documents, or challenges the validity, enforceability or first priority of the liens and security interests securing payment of amounts owing or payable under the terms of the Loan Documents (unless prior to such challenge Borrower has either commenced turning over all revenue (including any security deposits) from the Property or Borrower has cooperated with the appointment of a receiver to preserve and protect the Property during the pendency of such challenge), or (g) Borrower commits a material violation of Section 4.11 of this Agreement which is a contributing factor in the substantive consolidation of Borrower with another entity.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not have any liability pursuant to this Section 10.2 if Borrower can prove that any acts or omissions that would have created liability hereunder were caused by (or resulted from) the fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence of Lender, in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, other than with respect to the Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement and under the Indemnity Agreement, no Exculpated Party shall have any personal liability for, nor be joined as a party to, any action with respect to (i) the payment of any sum which is or may be payable under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (ii) the performance or discharge of any covenants, obligations or undertakings of Borrower.
