45
Section 2.5. Interest Rate.
(a) Generally. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall accrue from the Closing Date at the Interest Rate until repaid in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions hereof.
(b) Determination of Interest Rate.
(i) Interest Rate. The Interest Rate with respect to the Loan shall be: (A) the SOFR Rate with respect to the applicable Interest Accrual Period if the Loan is a SOFR Loan or (B) the Alternate Rate with respect to the applicable Interest Accrual Period if the Loan is an Alternate Rate Loan, in each case determined by Administrative Agent as of the Determination Date.
(ii) Term SOFR Conforming Changes. In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of Borrower or any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR.
(iii) Benchmark Unavailability Period. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of the Interest Rate based on Term SOFR (or the then-current Benchmark if the Loan is then an Alternate Rate Loan) shall during such Benchmark Unavailability Period be replaced with the Prime Rate.
(iv) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Loan shall be either a SOFR Loan or an Alternate Rate Loan, as applicable, and Borrower shall pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loan at the SOFR Rate or at the Alternate Rate, as applicable, for the applicable Interest Accrual Period. If and to the extent part of the Conforming Changes, any change in the rate of interest hereunder due to a change in the Benchmark shall become effective as of the opening of business on the first day on which such change in the Benchmark shall become effective. Each determination by Administrative Agent of the Interest Rate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(v) Effect of a Benchmark Transition Event.
(A) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Periodic Term SOFR Determination Date (or if the Benchmark is not the Term SOFR Reference Rate, the Determination Date) for any Interest Accrual Period, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such determination and all determinations on all subsequent dates (without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement).
46
(B) In connection with the use, administration, adoption, or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of the Borrower or any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
(C) Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower of (i) the Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes, and/or (iv) any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, including any determination with respect to a rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without consent from the Borrower.
(D) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to convert the Loan to an Alternate Rate Loan.
(vi) All payments made by Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of, income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, reserves or withholdings imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, which are imposed, enacted or become effective after the date hereof (such taxes being referred to collectively as “Foreign Taxes”), other than any Excluded Taxes. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of Borrower) requires the deduction or withholding of any Foreign Tax from any such payment by Borrower, then Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Foreign Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this paragraph), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. Whenever any Foreign Tax is payable pursuant to applicable law by Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter, Borrower shall send to Administrative Agent an original official receipt, if available, a certified copy thereof showing payment of such Indemnified Tax, or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent and Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by Administrative Agent and such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Administrative Agent and such Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
47
(vii) In the event that any change in any requirement of law or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by Administrative Agent or any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) hereafter issued from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:
(A) shall hereafter impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, capital adequacy, tax, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of SOFR hereunder;
(B) shall hereafter have the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount deemed by Lender to be material; or
(C) shall hereafter impose on Administrative Agent or any Lender any other condition and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Administrative Agent or any Lender of making, renewing or maintaining loans or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder;
then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay Administrative Agent, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Administrative Agent or any Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable as determined by Administrative Agent. If Administrative Agent or any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, Administrative Agent shall provide Borrower with not less than thirty (30) days’ notice specifying in reasonable detail the event by reason of which it has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully compensate Administrative Agent and such Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount. A certificate as to any additional costs or amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Administrative Agent to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This provision shall survive payment of the Note and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents.
(viii) Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and Lender and to hold Administrative Agent and Lender harmless from any loss or expense which Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (A) any default by Borrower in payment of the principal of or interest on a SOFR Loan (or Alternate Rate Loan), including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by any Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a SOFR Loan (or Alternate Rate Loan) hereunder, (B) any prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) of the SOFR Loan (or Alternate Rate Loan) on a day that is not a Monthly Payment Date, including, without limitation, such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by any Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the SOFR Loan (or Alternate Rate Loan) hereunder and (C) the conversion (for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary or involuntary) of the Interest Rate from the SOFR Rate to the Alternate Rate with respect to any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan then bearing interest based on the SOFR Rate on a date other than the last day of an Interest Accrual Period, including, without limitation, such loss or expenses arising from interest or fees payable by any Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a SOFR Loan or Alternate Rate Loan hereunder (the amounts referred to in clauses (A), (B) and (C) are herein referred to collectively as the “Breakage Costs”); provided, however, Borrower shall not indemnify Administrative Agent or Lender from any loss or expense arising from Administrative Agent’s or Lender’s gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct. This provision shall survive payment of the Note in full and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
48
(ix) Intentionally Omitted.
(x) Status of Lender.
(1) If Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, Lender shall deliver to Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower as will enable Borrower to determine whether or not Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in (2)(A), (2)(B) and (2)(D) below) shall not be required if in Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Lender.
(2) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(A) If Lender is a U.S. Person, Lender shall deliver to Borrower on or prior to the date on which Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
49
(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower ), whichever of the following is applicable:
(i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(ii) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the IRS Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRS Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the IRS Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the IRS Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable;
(iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower ), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
50
(D) if a payment made to Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the IRS Code, as applicable), Lender shall deliver to Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the IRS Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that Lender has complied with Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(xi) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.5(b) (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.5(b)), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (x) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (x), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (x) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(c) Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (i) the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, overdue unpaid interest in respect of the Loan, shall each accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date the applicable Event of Default occurred, (ii) without limitation of any rights or remedies contained herein and/or in any other Loan Document, any interest accrued at the Default Rate in excess of the interest component of the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount shall, to the extent not already paid and/or due and payable hereunder, be due and payable on each Monthly Payment Date and (iii) all references herein and/or in any other Loan Document to the “Interest Rate” shall be deemed to refer to the Default Rate.
51
(d) Interest Calculation. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year (that is, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as then applicable, expressed as an annual rate divided by 360) by (c) the outstanding principal balance. The accrual period for calculating interest due on each Monthly Payment Date shall be the Interest Accrual Period in which the related Monthly Payment Date occurs. Borrower understands and acknowledges that such interest accrual requirement results in more interest accruing on the Loan than if either a thirty (30) day month and a three hundred sixty (360) day year or the actual number of days and a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year were used to compute the accrual of interest on the Loan.
(e) Usury Savings. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan (including, to the extent applicable, any prepayment premium and/or penalty) at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder (including, to the extent applicable, any prepayment premium and/or penalty) at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, and/or, to the extent applicable, any prepayment premium and/or penalty shall, in each case, be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan (including, to the extent applicable, any prepayment premium and/or penalty) does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.
(f) Use of Proceeds. Borrower used the proceeds of the Loan to (a) pay a portion of the consideration in connection with the acquisition of the Properties, (b) repay existing financing encumbering certain of the Properties, (c) make deposits (if any) into the Reserve Funds on the Closing Date in the amounts provided herein, if any, (d) pay costs and expenses incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan, as reasonably approved by Lender, (e) distribute the balance, if any, to the direct or indirect parent of the Borrower, and (f) for general corporate purposes.

(a) Borrower shall make a payment to Administrative Agent for the account of Lender of interest only on the Closing Date for the period from (and including) the Closing Date through (and including) the fourteenth (14th) day of either (i) the month in which the Closing Date occurs (if the Closing Date occurs on or before the fourteenth (14th) day of such month), or (ii) the month following the month in which the Closing Date occurs (if the Closing Date occurs on or after the fifteenth (15th) day of the then current calendar month); provided, however, if the Closing Date is the fourteenth (14th) day of a calendar month, no such separate payment of interest shall be due. Borrower shall make a payment to Lender of interest in the amount of the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount on the First Monthly Payment Date and on each Monthly Payment Date occurring thereafter to and including the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Loan is funded into escrow prior to the Closing Date then interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan from and including the date of such deposit into escrow.
52
(b) On the First Monthly Payment Date and on each Monthly Payment Date occurring thereafter, so long as no Trigger Period then exists (and in which case, Section 9.1(b) and Section 9.3 hereof shall apply), Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to all Excess Cash Flow (after (x) all required expenses or reserves including Ground Rent, Taxes, Insurance Premiums, Debt Service, Replacements, leasing allowances or costs and management fees (in each case, incurred in compliance with this Agreement), (y) Borrowers’ share of any Required REIT Distributions and (z) all other amounts due and payable under the Loan and Operating Expenses, any other amounts due and owing to Administrative Agent and/or Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof and/or of the other Loan Documents and Mezzanine Debt Service have been so expended solely for such purposes) accumulated during the calendar month ended prior to such Monthly Payment Date to be applied in accordance with Section 2.7(a) (provided that no prepayment premium or penalty or Exit Fee shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.6(b)). For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent shall allocate such Excess Cash Flow between the Loan and the Mezzanine Loan on a pro rata basis based on the amount of the Loan and the amount of the Mezzanine Loan.
(c) Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of Lender on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Interest Shortfall).
(d) If any principal, interest or any other sum due under the Loan Documents, other than the payment of principal due on the Maturity Date, is not paid by Borrower on the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of three percent (3%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law in order to defray the expense incurred by Administrative Agent and/or any Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Administrative Agent and/or any Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.
(e) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments and prepayments under this Agreement and the Note shall be made to Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds at Administrative Agent’s office, and any funds received by Administrative Agent after such time shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.
(f) Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be deemed to be the immediately preceding Business Day.
53
(g) All payments required to be made by Borrower hereunder or under the Note or the other Loan Documents shall be made irrespective of, and without deduction for, any setoff, claim or counterclaim and shall be made irrespective of any defense thereto.
Section 2.7. Prepayments.
(a) Voluntary Prepayment. Borrower may, at its option, prepay the Debt in full or in part at any time and from time to time; provided, that, (A) no Event of Default is continuing as of the date of the applicable prepayment (other than for any prepayment in connection with a Default Release or the prepayment of the Debt in full in accordance with Section 2.7(c) hereof); (B) Borrower gives Administrative Agent not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice (which notice shall be revocable and subject to modification) (a “Prepayment Notice”) of the amount of the Loan that Borrower intends to prepay and the intended date of prepayment; (C) if such prepayment is made during the period commencing on the first calendar day immediately following a Monthly Payment Date to, but not including, the Periodic Term SOFR Determination Date (or if the Benchmark is not the Term SOFR Reference Rate, the Determination Date) in such calendar month, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent the Interest Shortfall amount for the current and next Interest Accrual Period, if any, estimated by Administrative Agent to be due in connection with such prepayment; provided, that once the Interest Rate for the next occurring Interest Accrual Period can be determined, Administrative Agent shall calculate the actual amount of interest required to be paid by Borrower for such prepayment and (x) if the Interest Shortfall paid to Administrative Agent is in excess of the amount required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.7(a)(i), Administrative Agent shall promptly return to Borrower such excess amount and (y) if the Interest Shortfall is less than the amount required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.7(a)(i) Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent within three (3) Business Days of notice from Administrative Agent, the amount of such deficiency; and (D) Borrower pays Administrative Agent, in addition to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan to be prepaid, (x) all interest which would have accrued on the amount of the Debt to be prepaid through and including the last day of the Interest Accrual Period related to the Monthly Payment Date next occurring following the date of such prepayment, or, if such prepayment occurs on a Monthly Payment Date, interest which would have accrued on the amount of the Debt to be prepaid through and including the last day of the Interest Accrual Period related to such Monthly Payment Date (all such interest payable under this clause (x), the “Additional Interest”); and (y) (I) all other sums due and payable under this Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to the actual Breakage Costs (if any and provided that if such prepayment includes the payment of Additional Interest, no Breakage Costs shall be payable to Administrative Agent) and the Exit Fee, and (II) all of Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable actually incurred attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually incurred by Administrative Agent and/or Lender in connection with such prepayment or in connection with a rescinded or extended Prepayment Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.7(a)(i), Borrower may rescind a Prepayment Notice upon delivery of written notice to Administrative Agent on or prior to the date specified for prepayment in the Prepayment Notice; provided Borrower shall be responsible for the reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by Administrative Agent and/or Lender in connection with the rescission of such Prepayment Notice, including any applicable actual Breakage Costs, the Exit Fee and reasonable actually incurred attorneys’ fees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, (i) the Exit Fee otherwise payable to any Lender shall not be payable to such Lender with respect to any portion of the Debt that is refinanced when a loan made by such Lender, (ii) no Exit Fee shall be payable if the Loan is refinanced in full in connection with a sale of the Properties on arms-length terms to a third party that is not an Affiliate of Sponsor or any of its Affiliates and in which neither Sponsor nor any of its Affiliates hold any direct or indirect interest and (iii) the Exit Fee shall not be payable with respect to any Net Proceeds Prepayment. If Borrower makes a partial prepayment of the Debt in accordance with this Section 2.7(a) and if, after giving effect to such partial prepayment, the outstanding principal amount of the Debt is less than the Minimum Loan Amount, Borrower shall be required to simultaneously prepay the Debt in full in accordance with this Section 2.7(a). Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, concurrently with any voluntary prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.7(a)(i), a simultaneous pro-rata prepayment of the Mezzanine Loan shall be made and Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent of such prepayment of the Mezzanine Loan.
54
(b) Mandatory Prepayment.
(i) On the next occurring Monthly Payment Date following the date on which Administrative Agent shall receive any Net Proceeds Prepayment that Administrative Agent is entitled to apply in accordance with this Section 2.7(b) and not otherwise make available or deliver to Borrower pursuant to Section 7.4, Borrower shall prepay or authorize Administrative Agent to apply such Net Proceeds Prepayment as a prepayment of all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan in an amount equal to the aggregate of (A) the Net Proceeds Prepayment up to an amount equal to the Release Amount for the affected Individual Property, (B) all Additional Interest and (C) the actual reasonable costs of Administrative Agent in connection with such prepayment to the extent such amounts are not paid to Administrative Agent in accordance with Article 7 hereof, excluding any Breakage Costs and the Exit Fee (collectively, the “Mandatory Prepayment Amount”). If, after giving effect to such mandatory prepayment in accordance with this Section 2.7(b), the outstanding principal amount of the Debt is less than the Minimum Loan Amount, Borrower shall be required to simultaneously prepay the Debt in full in accordance with Section 2.7(a) hereof. Amounts paid to or applied by Administrative Agent as a Mandatory Prepayment Amount shall first be applied to amounts required to be paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (D) above and then to the amounts set forth in clauses (A) - (C) simultaneously. Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, any Proceeds Prepayment to be applied pursuant to this Section 2.7(b) in excess of the Mandatory Prepayment Amount shall be paid to Mezzanine Lender and applied as Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service or if the Mezzanine Loan has been paid in full, to Borrower. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may apply such Net Proceeds Prepayment to the Debt (until paid in full) in any order or priority as Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion. No prepayment premium or penalty or Exit Fee shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.7(b). The Release Amount for the Individual Property with respect to which such Net Proceeds Prepayment was applied shall be reduced by an amount equal to the principal portion of such prepayment applied to the Loan; provided, that, nothing herein shall be construed to reduce the aggregate Release Amount for any Individual Property required to be paid to Administrative Agent prior to obtaining a release of the applicable Individual Property. Administrative Agent shall provide to Borrower, upon ten (10) days’ prior notice, (x) a release of the Individual Property if (I) at any time the Release Amount is reduced to zero, together with such additional documents and instruments evidencing or confirming the release as the Borrower shall reasonably request, or (II) Administrative Agent is required to deliver such release pursuant to a court order issued in connection with a Condemnation or (y) a release of the portion of an Individual Property that is subject to a Condemnation.
55
(ii) As provided in Section 7.4(e) hereof, each Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment tendered by Borrower to Administrative Agent in accordance with said Section 7.4(e) shall be in the amount of the Release Amount in respect of the applicable Individual Property. If, after giving effect to such Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment, the outstanding principal amount of the Debt is less than the Minimum Loan Amount, Borrower shall be required to simultaneously prepay the Debt in full in accordance with Section 2.7(a) hereof. No prepayment penalty or premium shall be due in connection with any such Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment or prepayment in full.
(iii) In connection with any release under this Section 2.7(b), in the event that such release would result in an Individual Borrower being an Unencumbered Borrower, such Unencumbered Borrower shall be released by Administrative Agent from the obligations of the Loan Documents, except with respect to those obligations and liabilities which expressly survive the repayment of the Loan pursuant to any Loan Document and shall no longer be a Borrower for the purposes of this Agreement. In connection with a release or cancellation of each Unencumbered Borrower, Administrative Agent agrees to deliver (A) a UCC-3 financing statement termination or amendment releasing Administrative Agent’s and/or Lenders’ security interest in the collateral pledged to Administrative Agent relating to each Unencumbered Borrower, and (B) instruments executed by Administrative Agent and/or Lender reasonably necessary to evidence the release or cancellation of each Unencumbered Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender in connection with such release shall be paid by Borrower.
(c) Prepayments After Default. If payment of all or any part of the Debt is tendered by Borrower or otherwise recovered by Administrative Agent (including through application of any Reserve Funds) during the continuance of an Event of Default, such tender or recovery shall be made on the next occurring Monthly Payment Date together with the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount and shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.7(a) hereof.
(d) Intentionally Omitted.
(e) Minimum Loan Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any Loan Document, if, after giving effect to any prepayment of the Debt (including in connection with a property release under Section 2.10 hereof), the outstanding principal amount of the Debt is less than the Minimum Loan Amount, Borrower shall be required to simultaneously prepay the Debt in full in accordance with Section 2.7(a) hereof.
56
Section 2.8. Interest Rate Cap Agreement.
(a) Prior to or contemporaneously with the Closing Date, Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party shall enter into an Interest Rate Cap Agreement with a SOFR strike rate equal to the Strike Rate. The Interest Rate Cap Agreement (i) shall be in a form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent, (ii) shall at all times be with a Counterparty, (iii) shall at all times be for a duration at least equal to the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which the then current Stated Maturity Date occurs, and (iv) shall at all times have a notional amount equal to or greater than the principal balance of the Loan and shall at all times provide for a strike rate to be equal to the Strike Rate. Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party shall direct such Counterparty to deposit directly into the Restricted Account, or from and after an Event of Default, as directed by Administrative Agent, any amounts due Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party under such Interest Rate Cap Agreement so long as any portion of the Debt is outstanding, provided that the Debt shall be deemed to be outstanding if the Property is transferred by judicial or non-judicial foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof unless the Loan was paid in full. Additionally, Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party shall collaterally assign to Administrative Agent, pursuant to the Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement, all of its right, title and interest in and to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (and any replacements thereof), including, without limitation, its right to receive any and all payments under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (and any replacements thereof), and Borrower shall, and shall cause Counterparty to, deliver to Administrative Agent a fully executed Interest Rate Cap Agreement (which shall, by its terms, authorize the assignment to Administrative Agent and require that payments be deposited directly into the Restricted Account).
(b) Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party shall comply with all of its material obligations under the terms and provisions of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. All amounts paid by the Counterparty under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party or Administrative Agent shall be deposited immediately and directly into the Restricted Account, or from and after an Event of Default, as directed by Administrative Agent. Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party shall take all actions reasonably requested by Administrative Agent to enforce Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in the event of a default by the Counterparty and shall not waive, amend or otherwise modify any of its rights thereunder.
(c) In the event of any downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the rating of the Counterparty by any Rating Agency below the Minimum Counterparty Rating, Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party shall replace the Interest Rate Cap Agreement not later than ten (10) Business Days following receipt of notice of such downgrade, withdrawal or qualification with an Interest Rate Cap Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender (and meeting the requirements set forth in this Section 2.8) (a “Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement”) from a Counterparty reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent having a Minimum Counterparty Rating.
(d) Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party shall deliver to Administrative Agent a new Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement acceptable to Administrative Agent in connection with each new Interest Rate Cap Agreement and Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement. In the event that Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party fails to purchase and deliver to Administrative Agent the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or fails to maintain the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Administrative Agent may purchase the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and the cost incurred by Administrative Agent in purchasing such Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date such cost was incurred by Administrative Agent until such cost is reimbursed by Borrower to Administrative Agent.
57
(e) Each Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall contain the following language or its equivalent: “In the event of any downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the rating of the Counterparty below (i) a long term rating of “A-” by S&P or (ii) a long term rating of “A3” by Moody’s, the Counterparty must, within ten (10) business days, find a replacement Counterparty, at the Counterparty’s sole cost and expense, acceptable to each Rating Agency and Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party; provided that, notwithstanding such a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification, unless and until the Counterparty transfers the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to a replacement Counterparty, the Counterparty will continue to perform its obligations under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. Failure to satisfy the foregoing shall constitute an “Additional Termination Event” as defined by Section 5(b)(v) of the ISDA Master Agreement, with the Counterparty as the “Affected Party.”” In the event that a Counterparty is required pursuant to the terms of an Interest Rate Cap Agreement to find a replacement Counterparty, Borrower covenants and agrees that Borrower shall seek Administrative Agent’s approval with respect thereto and shall not approve or consent to the foregoing unless and until Borrower receives Administrative Agent’s prior written approval and shall approve or consent to the foregoing upon receipt of Administrative Agent’s prior written approval.
(f) With respect to each Interest Rate Cap Agreement, Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party shall obtain and deliver to Administrative Agent an opinion from counsel (which counsel may be in house counsel for the Counterparty) for the Counterparty (upon which Administrative Agent, Lender and their respective successors and assigns may rely) which shall provide, in relevant part, that:
(i) the Counterparty is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has the organizational power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Interest Rate Cap Agreement;
(ii) the execution and delivery of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement by the Counterparty, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been and remain duly authorized by all necessary action and do not contravene any provision of its certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or equivalent organizational documents) or any law, regulation or contractual restriction binding on or affecting it or its property;
(iii) all consents, authorizations and approvals required for the execution and delivery by the Counterparty of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been obtained and remain in full force and effect, all conditions thereof have been duly complied with, and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for such execution, delivery or performance; and
58
(iv) the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and any other agreement which the Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, has been duly executed and delivered by the Counterparty and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Counterparty, enforceable against the Counterparty in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).
(g) Reserved.
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.8 or elsewhere in this Agreement, if, at any time, Administrative Agent converts the Loan from (I) a SOFR Loan to an Alternate Rate Loan or (II) an Alternate Rate Loan to an Alternate Rate Loan based on a different Benchmark Replacement, each in accordance with Section 2.5 above (each, an “Index Rate Conversion”), then, within thirty (30) days after such Index Rate Conversion, Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party shall enter into, make all payments under, and satisfy all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of, a Substitute Interest Rate Cap Agreement (and in connection therewith, but not prior to Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party taking all the actions described in this clause (i), Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party shall have the right to terminate any then-existing Interest Rate Cap Agreement) provided that if interest rate protection agreements with respect to Alternate Rate Loans are not available at a commercially reasonable cost (as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent), Administrative Agent and Borrower may pursue another option that is acceptable to Administrative Agent that provides Lender equivalent protection from rising interest rates.
As used herein, “Substitute Interest Rate Cap Agreement” shall mean an interest rate cap agreement between a Counterparty and Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party, obtained by Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party and collaterally assigned to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and shall contain each of the following:
(A) a term expiring no earlier than the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which the then current Maturity Date occurs;
(B) the notional amount of the Substitute Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be equal to or greater than the outstanding principal balance of the Loan;
(C) it provides that the only obligation of Borrower Interest Rate Cap Party thereunder is the making of a single payment to the Counterparty thereunder upon the execution and delivery thereof;
(D) a strike rate not to exceed the then applicable Strike Rate.
From and after the date of any Index Rate Conversion, all references to “Interest Rate Cap Agreement” and “Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement” herein (other than in the definition of “Interest Rate Cap Agreement”, the definition of “Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement” and as referenced in the first sentence of Section 2.8(a) hereof) shall be deemed to refer or relate, as applicable, to a Substitute Interest Rate Cap Agreement.
59
Section 2.9. Intentionally Omitted.
Section 2.10. Release of Properties. Except as set forth in Section 2.7(b) or this Section 2.10, no repayment or prepayment of all or any portion of the Loan shall cause, give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the release of any lien of any Security Instrument on any Individual Property. For the avoidance of doubt, any prepayment of the Loan in connection with a Condemnation or Casualty, and the related release of any lien of any Security Instrument on such Property in connection with such Condemnation or Casualty, if applicable, shall be governed solely by Section 2.7(b), Section 7.3 and Section 7.4 hereof.
(a) Release of Individual Property. At any time in connection with an arms-length transfer to a third-party Person which is not an Affiliate of Borrower, Borrower may obtain the release of an Individual Property from the lien of the Security Instrument thereon and related Loan Documents (each such Individual Property, a “Release Property”) and the release of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents with respect to such Release Property (other than those expressly stated to survive), upon the satisfaction of each of the following conditions:
(i) Borrower shall deliver notice to Administrative Agent of the proposed release of such Release Property;
(ii) no Event of Default shall be continuing on the date that the Release Property is released from the lien of the Security Instrument thereon other than as expressly permitted below;
(iii) Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent for the account of Lender the applicable Release Amount, together with the Exit Fee, if applicable;
(iv) Borrower shall submit to Administrative Agent, not less than ten (10) days prior to the date of such release, a release or assignment of lien (and related Loan Documents) for such Release Property for execution by Administrative Agent. Such release or assignment shall be in a form appropriate in each jurisdiction in which such Release Property is located and that would be reasonably satisfactory to a prudent lender. In addition, Borrower shall provide all documentation Administrative Agent reasonably requires to be delivered by Borrower in connection with such release or assignment, as applicable, together with an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such documentation (A) will effect such release or assignment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (B) will not impair or otherwise adversely affect the liens, security interests and other rights of Administrative Agent or Lender under the Loan Documents not being released (or as to the parties to the Loan Documents and Individual Properties subject to the Loan Documents not being released);
(v) After giving effect to such release, as of the date of such release, the Debt Yield shall not be less than the greater of Closing Date Debt Yield and the Debt Yield immediately prior to the release; provided, however, that in order to satisfy the Debt Yield requirement set forth in this clause (v) Borrower may make a prepayment of a portion of the Loan in accordance with Section 2.7(a) hereof in an amount sufficient to satisfy the Debt Yield requirement set forth in this clause (v);
60
(vi) Borrower shall have paid or reimbursed Administrative Agent and Lender for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender (including, without limitation, reasonable actually incurred attorneys’ fees and disbursements);
(vii) To the extent any Lease at an Individual Property that will remain collateral for the Loan following the release of such Release Property is cross-defaulted with any Lease at the Release Property, the Lease for the Individual Property that will remain collateral for the Loan following such release shall be amended to remove such cross-default;
(viii) Subsequent to such release, each Individual Borrower and each SPE Component Entity shall continue to be a Special Purpose Entity pursuant to, and in accordance with, Article 5 hereof;
(ix) After giving effect to such release, as of the date of such release, the LTV Ratio shall not be less than the Closing Date LTV Ratio; provided, however, that in order to satisfy the LTV Ratio requirement set forth in this clause (ix) Borrower may make a prepayment of a portion of the Loan in accordance with Section 2.7(a) hereof in an amount sufficient to satisfy the LTV Ratio requirement set forth in this clause (v);
(x) With respect to any Release Property subject to a Condominium (HI), Borrower shall be required to simultaneously transfer all units in the applicable Condominium (HI) owned by Borrower in a single transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be permitted to transfer a single condominium unit in any Condominium (HI) subject to Administrative Agent’s approval in its sole discretion; and
(xi) Borrower has provided Administrative Agent with evidence that Mezzanine Borrower has satisfied the release conditions set forth in the Mezzanine Loan Documents.
(b) Intentionally Omitted.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower shall have the right to cause the release of any Individual Property in order to cure a Default or Event of Default related to an Individual Property for which Administrative Agent has delivered notice of such Default or Event of Default to Borrower provided that (i) (I) prior to releasing such Individual Property, Borrower uses commercially reasonable efforts to cure such Default or Event of Default (which efforts shall not require any capital contributions to be made to Borrower or include any obligations of Borrower or Guarantor to use any operating income or Rents from any Property other than the Individual Property that is the subject of the Default or Event of Default to effectuate such cure) or (II) such Default or Event of Default related to an environmental condition at an Individual Property and (ii) such Default or Event of Default was not caused by (or at the direction of) Borrower or an Affiliate thereof in bad faith to circumvent the requirements of this Section 2.10 (a “Default Release”). In connection with any Default Release, Borrower shall be required to satisfy the conditions set forth in this Section 2.10, except that (I) Borrower shall not be required to satisfy the condition set forth in Section 2.10(a)(ii) to the extent any such Event of Default relates to the Individual Property that is the subject of the Default Release and (II) Borrower shall not be required to satisfy the condition set forth in Section 2.10(a)(v). Any prepayment of the Loan in connection with a Default Release shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and shall be subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.7(a) (other than (i) the requirement to provide 10 days prior written notice and (ii) Borrower shall not be required to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 2.7(a)(i)(A) to the extent any such Event of Default relates to the Individual Property that is subject to the Default Release).
61
(d) Intentionally omitted.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10, including clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) hereof, if the Loan is included in a REMIC Trust, as a condition to such release, the loan-to-value ratio of the Loan (expressed as a percentage) based upon valuations obtained by Borrower at its sole cost and expense using any commercially reasonable method permitted to a REMIC Trust (which may include an existing or updated appraisal, a broker’s price opinion or other written determination of value using a commercially reasonable valuation method, in each case reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, but shall be based solely on the value of real property and shall exclude personal property and going-concern value) shall not exceed one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) immediately after the release of the Release Property, otherwise no such release will be permitted unless the Borrower pays down the principal balance of the Loan by an amount not less than the greater of (A) the Release Amount or (B) the least of one of the following amounts: (i) if the Individual Property is sold, the net proceeds of an arm’s-length sale of the Release Property to an unrelated Person, (ii) the fair market value of the Release Property at the time of the release, or (iii) an amount such that the loan-to-value ratio of the Loan as so determined by Administrative Agent after the release is not greater than the loan-to-value ratio of the Loan immediately prior to the release, unless the Administrative Agent receives an opinion of counsel that, if clause (B) is not followed, the Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a REMIC Trust as a result of the release.
(f) In connection with any release or cancellation under this Section 2.10, in the event that such release would result in the release of all Individual Properties held by an Individual Borrower (each an “Unencumbered Borrower”), such Unencumbered Borrower shall be released (provided so long as there is only one (1) Borrower hereunder, that the Debt has been paid in full) by Administrative Agent and Lender from the obligations of the Loan Documents, except with respect to those obligations and liabilities which expressly survive the repayment of the Loan pursuant to any Loan Document and shall no longer be a Borrower for the purposes of this Agreement. In connection with a release or cancellation of each Unencumbered Borrower, each of Administrative Agent and Lender agrees to deliver (i) a UCC-3 financing statement termination or amendment releasing Administrative Agent’s and/or Lender’s security interest in the collateral pledged to Administrative Agent and/or Lender relating to each Unencumbered Borrower, and (ii) instruments executed by Administrative Agent and/or Lender reasonably necessary to evidence the release or cancellation of each Unencumbered Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that (i) an Unencumbered Borrower is the counterparty to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and/or the Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement, (ii) the Restricted Account Agreement is in the name of an Unencumbered Borrower, or (iii) the Cash Management Account is in the name of an Unencumbered Borrower (clauses (i), (ii), and (iii), the “Single Borrower Documents”), the release of such Unencumbered Borrower shall additionally be conditioned upon Administrative Agent’s receipt of evidence reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent that a remaining Borrower shall have assumed all of the obligations of such Unencumbered Borrower under the Single Borrower Documents. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Lender in connection with such release shall be paid by Borrower.
62
Section 2.11. Duration Fee. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent (for the account of Lender) a duration fee (the “Duration Fee”) equal to the following: (i) on the date that is ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, one half percent (0.50%) of the amount of the Loan then outstanding, (ii) on the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date, three-quarters of one percent (0.75%) of the amount of the Loan then outstanding, and (iii) on the date that is two hundred seventy (270) days after the Closing Date, one percent (1.00%) of the amount of the Loan then outstanding.
Section 2.12. Release on Payment in Full. Upon payment in full of the Debt in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Note and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent and Lender shall, upon the written request and at the sole cost and expense (including Administrative Agent’s and any Lender’s reasonable actually incurred attorneys’ fees and disbursements) of Borrower, release or, if permitted under REMIC Requirements, assign the lien of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents (except that those that expressly survive such release) on each Individual Property, in each case not theretofore released or assigned, as applicable.
Section 2.13. Release of Reserve Funds. In connection with a release of a Release Property, Administrative Agent will return to Borrower a portion of the Reserve Funds that is allocable to such Release Property, but only to the extent the remaining amount in the applicable Reserve Accounts with respect to all Individual Properties remaining subject to the Loan Documents exceed the estimated amounts that Administrative Agent determines in its reasonable discretion is necessary to satisfy the current obligations for which such Reserve Accounts were established.

The Loan Documents are not subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense by Borrower or Guarantor, including the defense of usury, nor would the operation of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Loan Documents unenforceable (except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Creditors Rights Laws, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law)).

Borrower has disclosed or made available to Administrative Agent and Lender all material facts related to the Borrower, Guarantor and the Properties and has not failed to disclose any material fact that could cause any representation or warranty made herein to be materially misleading.
Borrower agrees that, unless expressly provided otherwise, all of the representations and warranties of Borrower set forth in this Article 3 and expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are made as of the date hereof but shall survive until the Debt has been repaid in full.
ARTICLE 4
BORROWER COVENANTS
From the date hereof and until payment and performance in full of all obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents or the earlier release of the lien of the Security Instrument (and all related obligations) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees with Administrative Agent and Lender that:
Section 4.1. Existence. Each Borrower will continuously maintain (a) its existence and shall not dissolve or permit its dissolution, (b) its rights to do business in the State where it owns any Individual Property and (c) its franchises and trade names, if any.
Section 4.2. Legal Requirements.
(a) Borrower shall promptly comply, or shall cause each Tenant at the Property to comply, in all material respects with all Legal Requirements affecting the Property or the use thereof (which such covenant shall be deemed to (i) include Environmental Laws and (ii) require Borrower or Tenant, as applicable, to keep all necessary Permits in full force and effect).
79
(b) Borrower shall from time to time, if requested by Administrative Agent (which request will be made only if Administrative Agent has a reasonable basis for believing the Property may not be in compliance with Legal Requirements), provide Administrative Agent with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the Property complies with all Legal Requirements or is exempt from compliance with Legal Requirements.
(c) Borrower shall give prompt notice to Administrative Agent of the receipt by Borrower of any notice related to a violation of any Legal Requirements and of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations which relate to compliance with Legal Requirements.
(d) After prior written notice to Administrative Agent, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the validity of any Legal Requirement, the applicability of any Legal Requirement to Borrower or any Individual Property or any alleged violation of any Legal Requirement, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any instrument to which Borrower is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be permitted by and conducted in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements; (iii) neither the applicable Individual Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in imminent danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (iv) Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof comply with any such Legal Requirement determined to be valid or applicable or cure any violation of any Legal Requirement; (v) such proceeding shall suspend the enforcement of the contested Legal Requirement against Borrower or the applicable Individual Property; and (vi) to the extent that the aggregate amount being contested by Borrower under this Section 4.2(d) at any time exceeds $2,500,000, Borrower shall furnish such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be requested by Administrative Agent, to insure compliance with such Legal Requirement, together with all interest and penalties payable in connection therewith. Administrative Agent may apply any such security or part thereof, as necessary to cause compliance with such Legal Requirement at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Administrative Agent, the validity, applicability or violation of such Legal Requirement is finally established or the applicable Individual Property (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in imminent danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by a Lease, a Tenant may contest the validity of any Legal Requirement, the applicability of any Legal Requirement to Tenant or any Individual Property or any alleged violation of any Legal Requirement in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Lease, provided Borrower complies with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4.2(d).

If under applicable zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of the Property is or shall become a nonconforming use, Borrower will not cause or permit the nonconforming use to be discontinued or the nonconforming Improvement to be abandoned without the express written consent of Administrative Agent.
80
Section 4.4. Waste. Borrower shall not (and shall not permit any Tenant to) commit or suffer any waste of the Property or make any change in the use of the Property which will in any way materially increase the risk of fire or other hazard arising out of the operation of the Property, or take any action that might invalidate or give cause for cancellation of any Policy, or do or permit to be done thereon anything that may in any way materially impair the value of the Property or the security for the Loan.

To the extent the Deemed Approval Requirements are fully satisfied in connection with a Borrower request for such consent in accordance with the foregoing sentence and Administrative Agent thereafter fails to respond, Administrative Agent’s approval shall be deemed given with respect to the matter for which approval was requested.
Section 4.12. Books and Records.
(a) Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent:
(i) After the first full calendar quarter following the Closing Date and quarterly thereafter, certified rent rolls for each Individual Property within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar quarter;

(iii) Commencing with the 2022 calendar year and annually thereafter, within one-hundred twenty (120) days after the close of each fiscal year of Borrower, with respect to Borrower (or any 100% direct or indirect owner of Borrower that owns no assets other than such ownership interest and the ownership of any intermediate holding companies that own no assets other than such ownership interest in Borrower), annual audited financial statements of Borrower (on a combined basis) audited by Deloitte, Ernst & Young, RSM McGladrey, Baker Newman Noyes, PwC, KPMG or other independent certified public accountant reasonably approved by Administrative Agent and prepared in accordance with Approved Accounting Method (the “Annual Financial Statements”). Such Annual Financial Statements shall set forth the financial condition and the results of operations for Borrower and the Properties (on a combined basis and with respect to each Individual Property) for such fiscal year, and shall include a balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement and notes to the financial statements (each of which shall not include any Person other than Borrower or any 100% direct or indirect owner of Borrower that owns no assets other than such ownership interest and the ownership of any intermediate holding companies that own no assets other than such ownership interest in Borrower); and
83
(iv) by no later than December 1 of each calendar year, an annual operating budget for the next succeeding calendar year presented on a monthly basis consistent with the annual operating statement described above for each Individual Property, including cash flow projections for the upcoming year and all proposed capital replacements and improvements, which such budget shall (A) until the occurrence and continuance of a Trigger Period, be provided to Administrative Agent for informational purposes and (B) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Trigger Period not take effect until reasonably approved by Administrative Agent (after such approval has been given in writing, each such approved budget shall be referred to herein, individually or collectively (as the context requires) as the “Approved Annual Budget”). Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Period, the budget currently in place will be deemed approved and the Administrative Agent will have a reasonable approval right over the next annual budget issued (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) provided that the Trigger Period is still in effect. In the event consent of the Administrative Agent is required with respect to a proposed budget and Borrower and the Administrative Agent cannot agree on a revised budget, the then existing Approved Annual Budget shall be deemed approved and shall continue to be the operative budget for the subsequent fiscal year until a new budget is approved; provided that, each line item of such Approved Annual Budget shall be increased by an amount equal to the increase in the consumer price index for the prior year (other than the line items in respect of Taxes, Insurance Premiums, utilities expenses, variable operating expenses that are directly related to increased revenues at the Properties and Other Charges, which line items shall be adjusted to reflect actual increases in such expenses). In the event that, during any Trigger Period, Borrower proposes to incur an extraordinary operating expense or capital expense that is not consistent with the Approved Annual Budget (each an “Extraordinary Expense”), Borrower shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent a reasonably detailed explanation of such proposed Extraordinary Expense for Administrative Agent’s approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
(b) Upon request from Administrative Agent, Borrower shall furnish in a timely manner to Administrative Agent:

Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent and its agents convenient facilities for the examination and audit of any such books and records (any such examination at Administrative Agent’s sole cost and expense other than during the continuance of an Event of Default).
84

Borrower shall be deemed to warrant and represent that, as of the date of delivery of any such financial statement, there has been no material adverse change in financial condition, nor have any assets or properties been sold, transferred, assigned, mortgaged, pledged or encumbered since the date of such financial statement except as disclosed by Borrower in a writing delivered to Administrative Agent. Borrower agrees that all Required Financial Items shall not contain any misrepresentation or omission of a material fact.
(e) within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month, a cash flow statement for the prior calendar month and a statement for Borrower’s operating account showing the beginning and ending balance for the prior calendar month, which statement shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate certifying (A) that all funds withdrawn from Borrower’s operating account during such calendar month were used solely for those uses permitted in Section 2.6(b) hereof, (B) that such operating account statement is true, correct, accurate, and complete and (C) to the amount of Excess Cash Flow generated during such calendar month.
(f) Borrower acknowledges the importance to Administrative Agent and Lender of the timely delivery of each of the items required by this Section 4.12 and the other financial reporting items required by this Agreement (each, a “Required Financial Item” and, collectively, the “Required Financial Items”).

Upon request, Borrower shall furnish Administrative Agent with executed copies of all Leases (to the extent not previously delivered to Administrative Agent unless Administrative Agent notifies Borrower it is unable to locate such executed copies).
(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not willfully withhold from Administrative Agent any information regarding renewal, extension, amendment, modification, waiver of provisions of, termination, rental reduction of, surrender of space of, or shortening of the term of, any Lease during the term of the Loan. Borrower agrees to provide Administrative Agent with written notice of any material event of default under a Major Lease within ten (10) Business Days after Borrower’s actual knowledge of the occurrence of any such event of default. Borrower’s failure to provide any of the aforesaid notices shall, at Administrative Agent’s option, constitute an Event of Default.
(d) Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent in writing, within ten (10) Business Days following receipt thereof, of Borrower’s receipt of any early termination fee or payment or other termination fee or payment paid by any Tenant under any Lease, Borrower shall deposit all termination fees into the Restricted Account for disbursement in accordance with the Restricted Account Agreement.

88
(e) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days of demand by Administrative Agent, deliver to Administrative Agent all Security Deposits. Without limitation of any other term or provision contained herein, for purposes of clarification, for a Security Deposit to be deemed “delivered to Administrative Agent” in connection with the foregoing, the same must be in the form of cash or in a letter of credit solely in Administrative Agent’s name. Such Security Deposits shall be held by Administrative Agent or Servicer for the benefit of the applicable Tenants in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements and the applicable Leases.
(f) To the extent that the Deemed Approval Requirements are satisfied in connection with any Borrower request for Administrative Agent consent under this Section and Administrative Agent thereafter fails to respond, Administrative Agent’s approval shall be deemed given with respect to the matter for which approval was requested.
Section 4.15. Management Agreement.
(a) Borrower shall (i) diligently and promptly perform, observe and enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed, observed and enforced to the end that all things shall be done which are necessary to keep unimpaired the rights of Borrower under the Management Agreement, (ii) promptly notify Administrative Agent of any event of default under the Management Agreement; (iii) promptly deliver to Administrative Agent a copy of any notice of default or other material notice received by Borrower under the Management Agreement; (iv) promptly give notice to Administrative Agent of any notice or information that Borrower receives which indicates that Manager is terminating the Management Agreement or that Manager is otherwise discontinuing its management of the Property; and (v) promptly enforce the performance and observance of all of the covenants required to be performed and observed by Manager under the Management Agreement in all material respects.

Manager may also receive a Construction Supervision Fee (as defined in the Management Agreement) in accordance with the Management Agreement no greater than five percent (5.0%) of the cost of such construction. In no instance shall Borrower pass-through any management fees to any Tenant in excess of the amount permitted under the related Lease.
89
(c) If Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed or observed, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, and without waiving or releasing Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, Administrative Agent shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Borrower, to the end that the rights of Borrower in, to and under the Management Agreement shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. Administrative Agent and any Person designated by Administrative Agent shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time for the purpose of taking any such action.

Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent if Manager sub-contracts to a third party or an Affiliate any or all of its management responsibilities under the Management Agreement.
(d) Not more than once in any twelve (12) month period unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall, from time to time, use its best efforts to obtain from Manager under the Management Agreement such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Borrower with the terms of the Management Agreement as may be requested by Administrative Agent.
(e) In the event that the Management Agreement is scheduled to expire at any time during the term of the Loan, Borrower shall timely exercise each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of the Management Agreement or submit to Administrative Agent by no later than sixty (60) days prior to such expiration a draft replacement management agreement for approval in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.
(f) Borrower shall have the right to replace Manager or consent to the assignment of Manager’s rights under the Management Agreement to another manager, in each case, to the extent that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) either (x) a “Cause Event” as defined in the Management Agreement has occurred, (y) if termination is permitted pursuant to Sponsor’s organization documents or (z) Administrative Agent consents to such termination, (iii) Administrative Agent receives at least sixty (60) days prior written notice of the same, and (iv) the applicable New Manager is a Qualified Manager engaged pursuant to a Qualified Management Agreement.

The foregoing consent right of Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, any reserve requirement) shall not be subject to any “cap” or similar limit on the amount of Reserve Funds held by Administrative Agent.
(j) If (a) an Event of Default occurs and is continuing or (b) Manager shall become subject to a bankruptcy proceeding, then, in the case of any of the foregoing, Borrower shall, at the request of Administrative Agent (such request being made no less than thirty (30) days in advance if there is an Event of Default continuing), terminate the Management Agreement and replace the Manager with a Qualified Manager pursuant to a Qualified Management Agreement, it being understood and agreed that the base management fee for such Qualified Manager shall not exceed then-prevailing market rates (and in no event shall such management fee exceed, with respect to each Individual Property, three percent (3.0%) of gross revenues attributable to such Individual Property to which such Qualified Management Agreement relates.
(k) Any sums expended by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Administrative Agent, shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt, shall be secured by the lien of the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Administrative Agent therefor.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by a Lease, a Tenant may contest by appropriate legal proceeding the validity of any Work Charge, the applicability of any Work Charge to Tenant or to any Individual Property or any alleged non-payment of any Work Charge and defer paying the same in accordance with the provisions of the Lease, provided that Borrower complies with the terms and conditions of this Section 4.16(b).

(j) Borrower shall cooperate with Administrative Agent and/or Lender in obtaining for Administrative Agent and/or Lender, as applicable, the benefits of any Awards or insurance proceeds lawfully or equitably payable in connection with any Individual Property (or any portion thereof), and Administrative Agent and such Lender shall be reimbursed for any expenses incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable, actual attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and the payment by Borrower of the expense of an appraisal on behalf of Administrative Agent in case of a Casualty or Condemnation affecting any Individual Property or any part thereto) out of such Awards or insurance proceeds. Any Net Proceeds related to such Awards or insurance proceeds shall be deposited with Administrative Agent and held and applied in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions hereof.
Section 7.2. Casualty. If any Individual Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Administrative Agent and shall, or direct the applicable Tenant to, as applicable, promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of the Restoration of the applicable Individual Property subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.4. Borrower or Tenant, as applicable, shall pay all costs of Restoration (including, without limitation, any applicable deductibles under the Policies) whether or not such costs are covered by the Net Proceeds. Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower.
Section 7.3. Condemnation. Borrower shall promptly give Administrative Agent notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of any Individual Property (or any portion thereof) of which Borrower has knowledge and shall deliver to Administrative Agent copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Administrative Agent may participate in any such proceedings, and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Administrative Agent all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall (or shall cause a Tenant to, as applicable), at its expense or the expense of the Tenant, as applicable, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Administrative Agent, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Agreement and the Debt shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Administrative Agent, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Administrative Agent shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If any Individual Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.4. Borrower shall pay all costs of Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by the Net Proceeds. If any Individual Property (or portion thereof) is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Administrative Agent of the Award, Administrative Agent shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, if, in connection with any Casualty or Condemnation, a prepayment of the Debt (in whole or in part) is required under REMIC Requirements, (a) the applicable Net Proceeds shall be applied to the Debt in accordance with Section 7.4(c) hereof and (b) to the extent that the amount of the applicable Net Proceeds actually applied to the Debt in connection therewith is insufficient under REMIC Requirements, Borrower shall, within five (5) days of demand by Administrative Agent, prepay the principal amount of the Debt in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions hereof in an amount equal to such insufficiency plus the amount of any then applicable Interest Shortfall (such prepayment, together with any related Interest Shortfall payment, collectively, the “REMIC Payment”). Administrative Agent may require Borrower to deliver a REMIC Opinion in connection with each of the foregoing.
129

(D) Borrower shall commence (or shall cause the commencement of) the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the issuance of a building permit with respect thereto) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements, including, without limitation, all applicable Environmental Laws, and the applicable requirements of the Property Documents, the Ground Lease and the PILOT Leases and/or the PILOT Documents, as applicable;

The Net Proceeds (other than the Rent Loss Proceeds) shall be disbursed by Administrative Agent to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the related Restoration item have been paid for in full (or will be paid from such disbursement), and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of Administrative Agent and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Administrative Agent by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy.
132
(iii) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Administrative Agent and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Administrative Agent (the “Casualty Consultant”). Administrative Agent shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Administrative Agent and the Casualty Consultant. All actual costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower. Borrower shall have the right to settle all claims under the Policies jointly with Administrative Agent, provided that (a) no Event of Default exists, (b) Borrower promptly and with commercially reasonable diligence negotiates a settlement of any such claims and (c) the insurer with respect to the Policy under which such claim is brought has not raised any act of the insured as a defense to the payment of such claim. If an Event of Default exists, Administrative Agent shall, at its election, have the exclusive right to settle or adjust any claims made under the Policies in the event of a Casualty.
(iv) In no event shall Administrative Agent be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Restoration Retainage. The term “Restoration Retainage” as used in this Subsection 7.4(b) shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until such time as the Casualty Consultant certifies to Administrative Agent that Net Proceeds representing fifty percent (50%) of the required Restoration have been disbursed. There shall be no Restoration Retainage with respect to costs actually incurred by Borrower for work in place in completing the last fifty percent (50%) of the required Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Subsection 7.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Restoration Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Administrative Agent that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Subsection 7.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the applicable Individual Property have been obtained from all appropriate governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, and Administrative Agent receives evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Restoration Retainage, provided, however, that Administrative Agent will release the portion of the Restoration Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Administrative Agent that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s, subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, and the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or by the title company insuring the lien of the Security Instrument. If required by Administrative Agent, the release of any such portion of the Restoration Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
133
(v) Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.
(vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Administrative Agent before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Administrative Agent shall be held by Administrative Agent and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 7.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents.
(vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Administrative Agent after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Administrative Agent that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.4(b) (the “Excess Net Proceeds”) and Administrative Agent has received evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be (A) (x) if a Trigger Period is in effect deposited in the Cash Management Account and applied in accordance with the Cash Management Agreement or (y) if a Trigger Period is not in effect, remitted by Administrative Agent to Borrower and applied or distributed by Borrower subject to its compliance with the terms of this Agreement or (B) if Borrower shall otherwise elect or if an Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing at the time that Excess Net Proceeds become available, applied as a Net Proceeds Prepayment.
(c) All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Subsection 7.4(b)(vii) shall be retained and applied by Administrative Agent toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Administrative Agent in its discretion shall deem proper. If Administrative Agent shall receive and retain Net Proceeds, the lien of the Security Instrument shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received and retained by Administrative Agent and actually applied by Administrative Agent in reduction of the Debt.
(d) Administrative Agent shall, with reasonable promptness following any Casualty or Condemnation, notify Borrower whether or not Net Proceeds are required to be made available to Borrower for a Restoration pursuant to this Section 7.4 (or, if the same are not required to be made available to Borrower for Restoration pursuant to this Section 7.4, whether Administrative Agent will nevertheless make the same available, which election Administrative Agent may make in its sole discretion, subject to the provisions of Section 7.4(e)). All Net Proceeds and the Net Proceeds Deficiency not required to be made available for a Restoration pursuant to this Section 7.4 and any Excess Net Proceeds required to be applied in accordance with subclause (B) of Section 7.4(b)(vii) hereof (as applicable, a “Net Proceeds Prepayment”) shall be applied by Administrative Agent to the payment of the Debt in accordance with Section 2.7(b) hereof.
134
(e) In addition to the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in connection with any Casualty or Condemnation, if (i) the cost of Restoration is expected to be more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Allocated Loan Amount in respect of the applicable Individual Property is the subject of a Casualty or Condemnation or (ii) the estimated Net Proceeds shall be equal to or greater than the greater of (x) ten percent (10%) of the Allocated Loan Amount in respect of the applicable Individual Property and (y) five percent (5%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan for which the Administrative Agent has not made such Net Proceeds available to Borrower for Restoration and after Borrower shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy each of the other conditions set forth in Section 7.4(b)(i), Borrower shall be unable to satisfy all such conditions and Administrative Agent does not disburse the Net Proceeds to Borrower for Restoration, then Borrower shall have the right, regardless of any restrictions contained in Section 2.7(a) hereof, to prepay the Release Amount of the applicable Individual Property (a “Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment”) utilizing the Net Proceeds (together with other funds of the Borrower if such Net Proceeds are less than the Release Amount) and obtain the release of the applicable Individual Property from the lien of the Security Instrument thereon and related Loan Documents, provided that (i) Borrower shall have satisfied the requirements of Section 2.10(a)(i), (iv), (vi) and (viii), and Section 2.10(e) hereof (if applicable), (ii) Borrower shall consummate the Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment on or before the second Monthly Payment Date occurring following the date the Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for such intended Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment and (iii) Borrower pays to Administrative Agent, concurrently with making such Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment, the amounts required pursuant to Section 2.7(b)(ii) hereof (without duplication or other amounts received by Administrative Agent in connection with such Casualty or Condemnation). Notwithstanding anything in Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 to the contrary, Borrower shall not have any obligation to commence Restoration of an Individual Property upon delivery of the written notice required pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(i) hereof unless Borrower shall subsequently fail to pay to Administrative Agent the amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.7(b)(ii) hereof (without duplication or other amounts received by Administrative Agent in connection with such Casualty or Condemnation). For the avoidance of doubt, no prepayment premium or penalty or charge or Exit Fee shall be due with respect to a Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Loan Documents (except Section 7.4(b)(i)(N) of this Agreement and the obligation to cause a Restoration in accordance with Sections 7.2 and 7.3 hereof) with respect to the disbursement of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in respect of any Lease, any PILOT Lease and/or PILOT Document, as applicable, and/or in respect to any Ground Lease, the express provisions set forth in the Lease, PILOT Lease, PILOT Document and/or Ground Lease, as applicable, shall govern; provided, however, to the extent the compliance by Borrower with the terms and conditions of this Section 7.4 do not create a breach or default under or otherwise violate the terms and provisions of such Lease, PILOT Lease, such PILOT Document or such Ground Lease, as applicable, Borrower shall comply with the terms and provisions of this Section 7.4; provided, further, that Borrower shall not grant its consent, approval or waiver with respect to any disbursement of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in respect of any Individual Property (if such disbursement would violate the terms and provisions of this Section 7.4) as may be requested or required in connection with the terms and provisions of any Lease, any PILOT Lease, any PILOT Document and/or any Ground Lease, as applicable, without first obtaining the written consent, approval, or waiver of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall respond to any request for consent subject to the standards for consent set forth in the applicable Lease, the applicable PILOT Lease, the applicable PILOT Document and/or the applicable Ground Lease; provided that any request for consent or approval shall either be sent (A) by the PILOT Lessor (or other counterparty to the PILOT Document) or Ground Lessor, as applicable, simultaneously to Administrative Agent or (B) by Borrower within five (5) Business Days following Borrower’s receipt of such request for consent or approval from the Tenant, the PILOT Lessor (or other counterparty to the PILOT Document) and/or Ground Lessor, as applicable.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lease Termination Deposits may only be used for tenant improvements and leasing commissions related to the Individual Property and space for which such payments were received until such time as such space has been released at which point they may be used for tenant improvements and leasing commissions as any Property. Upon the cure of the applicable Trigger Period and provided that no other Trigger Period shall then exist, amounts in the Leasing Reserve Account shall be disbursed to the Restricted Account on the next Monthly Payment Date.
138
Section 8.4. Operating Expense Funds. On each Monthly Payment Date occurring on and after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Trigger Period, Borrower shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) into an Eligible Account held by Administrative Agent or Servicer (the “Operating Expense Account”) an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Approved Operating Expenses and Approved Extraordinary Expenses to be incurred by Borrower for the then current Interest Accrual Period (such amount, the “Op Ex Monthly Deposit”). Amounts deposited pursuant to this Section 8.4 are referred to herein as the “Operating Expense Funds”. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent shall disburse the Operating Expense Funds to Borrower to pay Approved Operating Expenses and/or Approved Extraordinary Expenses upon Borrower’s request (which such request shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate detailing the applicable expenses to which the requested disbursement relates and attesting that such expense shall be paid with the requested disbursement).
Section 8.5. Intentionally Omitted.
Section 8.6. Tax and Insurance Funds. Borrower shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) on each Monthly Payment Date occurring on and after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Trigger Period (a) one-twelfth of an amount which would be sufficient to pay the Taxes required to be paid by Borrower, or estimated by Administrative Agent to be payable by Borrower (but excluding from such amount Tenant Paid Taxes), during the next ensuing twelve (12) months assuming that said Taxes are to be paid in full on the Tax Payment Date (the “Monthly Tax Deposit”). The Monthly Tax Deposit shall be held in an Eligible Account by Administrative Agent or Servicer and hereinafter referred to as the “Tax Account”, and (b) at the option of Administrative Agent, if the liability or casualty Policy maintained by Borrower covering the Property (or any portion thereof) shall not constitute an approved blanket or umbrella Policy pursuant to Subsection 7.1(c) hereof, or Administrative Agent shall require Borrower to obtain a separate Policy pursuant to Subsection 7.1(c) hereof, one-twelfth of an amount which would be sufficient to pay the Insurance Premiums payable by Borrower for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof (the “Monthly Insurance Deposit”), each of which such deposits shall be held in an Eligible Account by Administrative Agent or Servicer and hereinafter referred to as the “Insurance Account” (amounts held in the Tax Account and the Insurance Account are collectively herein referred to as the “Tax and Insurance Funds”). In the event a Trigger Period occurs, Borrower shall make a True Up Payment with respect to Insurance Premiums and Taxes (other than Tenant Paid Taxes) into the applicable Reserve Account. Additionally, if, at any time, Administrative Agent reasonably determines that amounts on deposit in or scheduled to be deposited in (i) the Tax Account will be insufficient to pay all applicable Taxes (other than Tenant Paid Taxes) in full on the Tax Payment Date and/or (ii) the Insurance Account will be insufficient to pay all applicable Insurance Premiums in full on the Insurance Payment Date, Borrower shall make a True Up Payment with respect to such insufficiency into the applicable Reserve Account. Borrower agrees to notify Administrative Agent immediately of any changes to the amounts, schedules and instructions for payment of any Taxes and Insurance Premiums of which it has or obtains knowledge and authorizes Administrative Agent or its agent to obtain the bills for Taxes directly from the appropriate taxing authority. Provided there are sufficient amounts in the Tax Account and Insurance Account, respectively, and no Event of Default exists, Administrative Agent shall be obligated to pay the Taxes and Insurance Premiums as they become due on their respective due dates on behalf of Borrower by applying the Tax and Insurance Funds to the payment of such Taxes and Insurance Premiums. If at any time during which Borrower is required to make payments of Tax and Insurance Reserve Funds pursuant to this Section 8.6, the amount on deposit in the Tax Account and/or the Insurance Account shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Sections 4.5 and 7.1 hereof, Administrative Agent shall, in its discretion, disburse any excess to the Restricted Account or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Funds. Any Tax and Insurance Funds remaining on deposit in the Tax Account and/or Insurance Account after the Debt has been paid in full shall be paid to (i) in the event the Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, Mezzanine Lender; or (ii) in the event the Mezzanine Loan has been indefeasibly paid in full, Borrower. Upon the cure of a Trigger Period and provided that no other Trigger Period shall not then exist, amounts in the Tax Account and the Insurance Account shall be released to Borrower on the next Monthly Payment Date. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts due and payable by the applicable Individual Borrower pursuant to the terms of the PILOT Lease and/or the PILOT Document, as applicable (excluding any amounts owed in connection with the acquisition of the fee title to the PILOT Property) shall be deemed Taxes for the purpose of this Section 8.6.

(a) Borrower grants to Administrative Agent on behalf of Lender a first-priority security interest in each of the Accounts and any and all sums now or hereafter deposited in the Accounts as additional security for payment of the Debt. Until expended or applied in accordance herewith, the Restricted Account Agreement or Cash Management Agreement, as applicable, the Accounts and the funds deposited therein shall constitute additional security for the Debt. The provisions of this Section 8.7 are intended to serve as a “security agreement” with respect to the Accounts and Account Collateral within the meaning of the UCC. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Accounts are subject to the sole dominion, control and discretion of Administrative Agent, its authorized agents or designees, subject to the terms hereof, and Borrower shall have no right of withdrawal with respect to any Account except with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent or as otherwise provided herein. The funds on deposit in the Accounts shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, unless otherwise consented to in writing by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall only be permitted to request (and Administrative Agent shall only be required to disburse) Reserve Funds on account of the liabilities, costs, work and other matters (as applicable) for which said sums were originally reserved hereunder.
(b) Borrower shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, further pledge, assign or grant any security interest in the Accounts or the sums deposited therein or permit any lien to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC-1 Financing Statements, except those naming Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lender as the secured party, to be filed with respect thereto. Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to file a financing statement or statements under the UCC in connection with any of the Accounts and the Account Collateral in the form required to properly perfect Administrative Agent’s security interest therein. Xxxxxxxx agrees that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or that Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby (including, without limitation, any security interest in and to any Permitted Investments) or to enable Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Account or Account Collateral.
140
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice from Administrative Agent or Servicer (i) Borrower shall have no rights in respect of the Accounts, (ii) Administrative Agent may liquidate and transfer any amounts then invested in Permitted Investments pursuant to the applicable terms hereof to the Accounts or reinvest such amounts in other Permitted Investments as Administrative Agent may reasonably determine is necessary to perfect or protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or pursuant to the other Loan Documents or to enable Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Account or any Account Collateral, and (iii) Administrative Agent shall have all rights and remedies with respect to the Accounts and the amounts on deposit therein and the Account Collateral as described in this Agreement and in the Security Instrument, in addition to all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in the Security Instrument, may apply the amounts of such Accounts as Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion including, but not limited to, payment of the Debt.
(d) The insufficiency of funds on deposit in the Accounts shall not absolve Borrower of the obligation to make any payments, as and when due pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such obligations shall be separate and independent, and not conditioned on any event or circumstance whatsoever.
(e) Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent and Lender and hold Administrative Agent and Lender harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations and costs and expenses (including litigation costs and reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) arising from or in any way connected with the Accounts, the sums deposited therein or the performance of the obligations for which the Accounts were established, except to the extent arising from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent, Lender, their respective agents or employees. Borrower shall assign to Administrative Agent all rights and claims Borrower may have against all Persons supplying labor, materials or other services which are to be paid from or secured by the Accounts; provided, however, that Administrative Agent may not pursue any such right or claim unless an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured.
(f) Borrower and Administrative Agent (or Servicer on behalf of Administrative Agent) shall maintain each applicable Account as an Eligible Account, except as otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by Administrative Agent. In the event that Administrative Agent or Servicer no longer satisfies the criteria for an Eligible Institution, Borrower shall cooperate with Administrative Agent in transferring the applicable Accounts to an institution that satisfies such criteria. Borrower hereby grants Administrative Agent power of attorney (irrevocable for so long as the Loan is outstanding) with respect to any such transfers and the establishment of accounts with a successor institution.
141
(g) All interest or other earnings on Reserve Funds shall be added to and become a part of such Reserve Funds and shall be disbursed in the same manner as other monies deposited in the applicable Reserve Account. The Reserve Funds shall be held in an Eligible Account and shall bear interest at a money market rate selected by Administrative Agent, provided that Borrower shall have the right to direct Administrative Agent to invest sums on deposit in the Eligible Account in Permitted Investments if (a) such investments are then regularly offered by Administrative Agent for accounts of this size, category and type, (b) such investments are permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, (c) the maturity date of the Permitted Investment is not later than the date on which the applicable Reserve Funds are required for payment of an obligation for which the applicable Reserve Account was created, and (d) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Borrower shall be responsible for payment of any federal, state or local income or other tax applicable to the interest earned on the Reserve Funds credited or paid to Borrower, provided that, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, such taxes may be paid from the applicable Reserve Funds. No other investments of the sums on deposit in the Reserve Accounts shall be permitted except as set forth in this Section 8.7(g). All interest on Reserve Funds (i) shall be added to and become a part of such Reserve Fund, (ii) shall accrue to the benefit of Borrower and (iii) shall be disbursed in the same manner as other monies deposited in such Reserve Fund. Such costs shall be deducted from the income or earnings on such investment, if any, and to the extent such income or earnings shall not be sufficient to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by Borrower promptly on demand by Administrative Agent.
(h) Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it solely shall be, and shall at all times remain, liable to Administrative Agent or Servicer for all fees, charges, costs and expenses in connection with the Accounts, including, without limitation, any monthly or annual fees or charges as may be assessed by Administrative Agent or Servicer in connection with the administration of the Accounts and the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel to Administrative Agent and Servicer as needed to enforce, protect or preserve the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and/or Servicer under this Agreement with respect to the Accounts.
(i) Any amount remaining in the Reserve Funds after the Debt has been paid in full shall be promptly paid to (i) in the event the Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, Mezzanine Lender; or (ii) in the event the Mezzanine Loan has been indefeasibly paid in full, Borrower. In the Event Administrative Agent waives the requirement for Borrower to maintain any of the Accounts, Administrative Agent consents to Borrower permitting Mezzanine Borrower to establish and maintain (as applicable) such accounts (and Mezzanine Borrower so establishing and maintaining), as the case may be, that would operate as provided herein. In connection with the foregoing, Borrower further consents to Administrative Agent transferring any available balances in the applicable Accounts to Mezzanine Lender if the Mezzanine Loan Documents provided for the establishment of such reserve accounts and Administrative Agent has received written notice from Mezzanine Lender that such accounts are required to be disbursed to Mezzanine Lender pursuant to the Mezzanine Loan Documents. Xxxxxxxx further agrees that Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx’s written notice that is entitled to such available balances and Borrower hereby waives any claim of liability against Administrative Agent and Lender in connection with Administrative Agent’s remittance of such available balances to Mezzanine Lender following such reliance by Administrative Agent.
142
Section 8.8. Letters of Credit.
(a) This Section shall apply to any Letters of Credit which are permitted to be delivered pursuant to the express terms and conditions hereof. Other than in connection with any Letters of Credit delivered in connection with the closing of the Loan, Borrower shall give Administrative Agent no less than ten (10) days written notice of Xxxxxxxx’s election to deliver a Letter of Credit together with a draft of the proposed Letter of Credit and Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent all of Administrative Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection therewith. No party other than Administrative Agent shall be entitled to draw on any such Letter of Credit. In the event that any disbursement of any Reserve Funds relates to a portion thereof provided through a Letter of Credit, any “disbursement” of said funds as provided above shall be deemed to refer to (i) Borrower providing Administrative Agent a replacement Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the original Letter of Credit posted less the amount of the applicable disbursement provided hereunder and (ii) Administrative Agent, after receiving such replacement Letter of Credit, returning such original Letter of Credit to Borrower; provided, that, no replacement Letter of Credit shall be required with respect to the final disbursement of the applicable Reserve Funds such that no further sums are required to be deposited in the applicable Reserve Funds.
(b) Each Letter of Credit delivered hereunder shall be additional security for the payment of the Debt. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or Mezzanine Loan Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall have the right, at its option, to draw on any Letter of Credit and to apply all or any part thereof to the payment of the items for which such Letter of Credit was established or to apply each such Letter of Credit to payment of the Debt in such order, proportion or priority as Administrative Agent may determine. Any such application to the Debt shall be subject to the terms and conditions hereof relating to application of sums to the Debt. Administrative Agent shall have the additional rights to draw in full any Letter of Credit: (i) if Administrative Agent has received a notice from the issuing bank that the Letter of Credit will not be renewed and a substitute Letter of Credit is not provided at least forty five (45) days prior to the date on which the outstanding Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire; (ii) if Administrative Agent has not received a notice from the issuing bank that it has renewed the Letter of Credit at least forty five (45) days prior to the date on which such Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire and a substitute Letter of Credit is not provided at least forty five (45) days prior to the date on which the outstanding Letter of Credit is scheduled to expire; (iii) upon receipt of notice from the issuing bank that the Letter of Credit will be terminated (except if the termination of such Letter of Credit is permitted pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof or a substitute Letter of Credit is provided by no later than forty five (45) days prior to such termination); (iv) if Administrative Agent has received notice that the bank issuing the Letter of Credit shall cease to be an Approved Bank and Borrower has not substituted a Letter of Credit from an Approved Bank within fifteen (15) days after notice; and/or (v) if the bank issuing the Letter of Credit shall fail to (A) issue a replacement Letter of Credit in the event the original Letter of Credit has been lost, mutilated, stolen and/or destroyed or (B) consent to the transfer of the Letter of Credit to any successor or permitted assign designated by Administrative Agent. If Administrative Agent draws upon a Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, provided no Event of Default exists, Administrative Agent shall apply all or any part thereof for the purposes for which such Letter of Credit was established. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the above, Administrative Agent is not obligated to draw any Letter of Credit upon the happening of an event specified in (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) above and shall not be liable for any losses sustained by Borrower due to the insolvency of the bank issuing the Letter of Credit if Administrative Agent has not drawn the Letter of Credit.
143
Section 8.9. Ground Lease Reserve Funds.
(a) Subject to the last sentence of Section 8.9(b), on each Monthly Payment Date after the Closing Date during a Trigger Period, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent one-twelfth of the rents (including both base rent and additional rents (excluding any Taxes otherwise reserved for hereunder)) (collectively, the “Ground Rent”) due under each Ground Lease during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Administrative Agent sufficient funds to pay all such Ground Rent at least thirty (30) days prior to the respective due dates. Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Ground Lease Reserve Fund” and the account in which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Ground Lease Reserve Account”. Upon the cure of the applicable Trigger Period and provided that no other Trigger Period shall then exist, amounts in the Ground Lease Reserve Funds shall be disbursed to the Restricted Account on the next Monthly Payment Date.
(b) Administrative Agent shall apply amounts in the Ground Lease Reserve Fund to the payment of the Ground Rent on or prior to the date such payments are due and, upon written request, shall provide to Borrower evidence of such payment. In making any payment relating to the Ground Rent, Administrative Agent may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease, without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate. If the amount of Ground Lease Reserve Funds shall exceed the amounts due for the Ground Rent under the Ground Lease for the immediately succeeding twelve (12) months as determined by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall return any excess to Borrower. Any amounts remaining in the Ground Lease Reserve Fund after the Debt has been paid in full or after the Ground Leased Property has been released in accordance with the terms hereunder, shall be paid to (i) in the event the Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, Mezzanine Lender; or (ii) in the event the Mezzanine Loan has been indefeasibly paid in full, Borrower. If at any time Administrative Agent reasonably determines that the Ground Lease Reserve Fund is not or will not be sufficient to pay the Ground Rent by the dates set forth above, Administrative Agent shall provide written notice to Borrower of such determination and Borrower, commencing with the first Monthly Payment Date occurring not less than five (5) days following receipt of such notice, shall increase its monthly payments to Administrative Agent by the amount that Administrative Agent estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date of the Ground Rent.

(a) Schedule X hereto sets forth the amount of outstanding unfunded tenant improvement allowances, landlord work and leasing commissions outstanding as of the Closing Date under certain executed Leases which are to be performed or funded during the term of the Loan and the Parking Expansion Costs (collectively, the “Unfunded Obligations”). On the Closing Date, Xxxxxxxx paid to Administrative Agent an amount equal to $4,814,581. The amounts so held by Administrative Agent shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Unfunded Obligations Reserve Funds” and the account in which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Unfunded Obligations Reserve Account.” The Unfunded Obligations Reserve Funds shall be held by Administrative Agent in escrow in accordance with Section 8.7 hereof and disbursed to Borrower in accordance with Section 8.10(b).
144
(b) Administrative Agent shall disburse to Borrower the Unfunded Obligations Reserve Funds (or any portion thereof) solely with respect to the Leases to which such deposit into the Unfunded Obligations Reserve Account relates upon satisfaction by Borrower of each of the following conditions: (i) Borrower shall submit a request for payment to Administrative Agent at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which Borrower requests such payment be made, which request for payment for tenant improvement costs and/or leasing commissions shall specify the tenant improvement costs and/or leasing commissions to be paid and that such request is not duplicative of any request made for disbursement from the Leasing Reserve Account in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof; (ii) on the date such payment is to be made, no Event of Default shall be continuing; (iii) intentionally omitted; (iv) with respect to any request for payment relating to tenant improvement costs, Administrative Agent shall have received (A) an Officer’s Certificate (1) stating that all tenant improvements at the applicable Individual Property to be performed by Xxxxxxxx and to be funded by the requested disbursement have been (or will be) completed in good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements in all material respects, such certificate to be accompanied by a copy of any material license, permit or other approval by any Governmental Authority required in connection with the tenant improvements, (2) identifying each Person to be paid by Borrower that supplied materials or labor in connection with the tenant improvements to be funded by the requested disbursement, and (3) stating that each such Person to be paid by Borrower has been paid or will be paid the amounts then due and payable to such Person in connection with the funds to be disbursed; (v) with respect to any request for payment relating to tenant improvement costs in excess of the Reserve Threshold, such request is accompanied by (X) lien waivers (except that lien waivers from subcontractors who have performed work in the amount of $50,000 or less shall not be required) or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and (Y) at Administrative Agent’s option, a title search for the applicable Individual Property indicating that such Individual Property is free from all liens not previously approved by Administrative Agent (other than Permitted Encumbrances); (vi) reserved; and (vii) with respect to any request for payment relating to tenant improvement costs in excess of the Reserve Threshold, such request is accompanied by such other evidence as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request that the tenant improvements at the applicable Individual Property associated with the Unfunded Obligation to be funded by the requested disbursement have been completed and are paid for or will be paid upon such disbursement to Borrower. Administrative Agent shall not be required to make disbursements from the Unfunded Obligations Reserve Funds with respect to the Properties (i) more than once in each calendar month and (ii) unless such requested disbursement is in an amount greater than the Minimum Disbursement Amount (or a lesser amount if the total amount on deposit in the Unfunded Obligations Reserve Account on the date of the requested disbursement is less than the Minimum Disbursement Amount), in which case only one disbursement of the amount remaining in the Unfunded Obligations Reserve Account shall be made. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Unfunded Obligations Reserve Funds remaining on deposit in the Unfunded Obligations Reserve Account shall upon the earlier of (A) payment of the Debt and the Mezzanine Loan in full or (B) with respect to any Unfunded Obligations associated with a Lease, Borrower’s delivery of evidence reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent that all Unfunded Obligations with respect to such Lease have been satisfied in full, be paid (I) so long as no Trigger Period has occurred and is continuing, to Borrower and (II) if a Trigger Period has occurred and is continuing, into the Cash Management Account for application in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and the Cash Management Agreement.

The Restricted Account Agreement shall provide (and each Restricted Account Counterparty shall provide) Administrative Agent online access to bank and other financial statements relating to the Restricted Account (including, without limitation, a listing of the receipts being collected therein). In connection with any Secondary Market Transaction, Administrative Agent shall have the right to cause the Restricted Account to be entitled with such other designation as Administrative Agent may select to reflect an assignment or transfer of Administrative Agent’s rights and/or interests with respect to the Restricted Account. Administrative Agent shall provide Borrower with prompt written notice of any such renaming of the Restricted Account.

Section 9.7. Distributions to Mezzanine Borrower. All transfers of funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account to the Mezzanine Debt Service Account or otherwise to or for the benefit of Mezzanine Borrower or Mezzanine Lender pursuant to this Agreement, the Cash Management Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or Mezzanine Loan Documents are intended by Borrower to constitute, and shall constitute, direct or indirect, as applicable, distributions from Borrower to Mezzanine Borrower and shall be recorded accordingly in the books and records of the Borrower and Xxxxxxxxx Borrower and comply with the separateness provisions set forth herein. No provision of the Loan Documents or the Mezzanine Loan Documents shall create a debtor-creditor relationship between Borrower and Mezzanine Borrower or between Borrower and Mezzanine Lender.
149
Section 9.8. Administrative Agent Reliance. Administrative Agent shall have no duty to confirm, inquire or determine whether a Mezzanine Loan Event of Default or Mezzanine Trigger Period has occurred. Administrative Agent may rely on any notice it believes in good faith to be genuine and given by Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx.
Section 9.9. Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Collateral Account.
(a) Any Trigger Period that has commenced solely as a result of a Debt Yield Trigger Event shall terminate upon the date that the Debt Yield is equal to or greater than the applicable Debt Yield set forth in the definition of “Trigger Period” for two (2) consecutive calendar quarters, provided that no other Trigger Period then exists for any other reason. In addition, in the event of the occurrence and continuance of a Trigger Period solely as a result of a Debt Yield Trigger Event, Borrower shall be deemed to have cured such Debt Yield Trigger Event if Borrower shall have either (i) prepaid the Loan (and the Mezzanine Loan on a pro rata basis with respect to a Debt Yield Trigger Event and to the extent no Event of Default then exists) in accordance with Section 2.7(a) hereof (including payment of the Exit Fee), (ii) delivered to Administrative Agent cash (the “Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Collateral”), and/or (iii) delivered to Administrative Agent a Letter of Credit (the “Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Letter of Credit”), in each case, in an amount which, when or if applied to the Outstanding Principal Balance (and, with respect to a Debt Yield Trigger Event and to the extent no Event of Default then exists, the outstanding principal balance of the Mezzanine Loan) would be sufficient such that the Debt Yield test in the definition of “Trigger Period” is satisfied (and such cure shall be immediate and shall not require Borrower to wait until the end of two (2) consecutive calendar quarters before the termination of the applicable Trigger Period as a result of a Debt Yield Trigger Event).
(b) Any Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Collateral shall be transferred by Administrative Agent into an Account (the “Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Collateral Account”) to be held by Administrative Agent as cash collateral for the Debt. Any Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Letter of Credit shall be delivered to Administrative Agent. If the requirements of clauses (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) above are satisfied by Borrower, Borrower shall not be subject to a Trigger Period as a result of a Debt Yield Trigger Event, until such time as the Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Collateral if applied to the Outstanding Principal Balance (and, with respect to a Debt Yield Trigger Event and to the extent no Event of Default then exists, the outstanding principal balance of the Mezzanine Loan on a pro rata basis) or Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Letter of Credit if drawn upon and applied to the Outstanding Principal Balance (and, with respect to a Debt Yield Trigger Event and to the extent no Event of Default then exists, the outstanding principal balance of the Mezzanine Loan on a pro rata basis), as applicable, would not be sufficient to prevent the occurrence of a Trigger Period due to a Debt Yield Trigger Event. Following the termination of the Trigger Period (determined without consideration of the Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Collateral or Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Letter of Credit, as applicable) and provided no other Trigger Period resulting from a separate event has occurred which has not been cured, Administrative Agent shall, at Borrower’s request, return to Borrower the Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Collateral or Low Cash Flow Period Threshold Letter of Credit, as applicable (to the extent not previously disbursed or applied by Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).

Section 10.2. Remedies.
(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in Section 10.1(f) above with respect to Borrower or any SPE Component Entity) and at any time thereafter Administrative Agent may, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity, take such action, without notice or demand, that Administrative Agent deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Xxxxxxxx and in the Property, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately due and payable, and Administrative Agent may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or remedies provided in this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents against Borrower and the Property, including, without limitation, all rights or remedies available at law or in equity. Upon any Event of Default described in Section 10.1(f) above with respect to Borrower or any SPE Component Entity, the Debt and all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately and automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or in the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding.
(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and other remedies available to Administrative Agent against Borrower under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to, Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Administrative Agent shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents with respect to the Property. Any such actions taken by Administrative Agent shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singularly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Administrative Agent permitted by applicable law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.
156
(c) With respect to Borrower and the Properties, nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring Administrative Agent to resort to any Individual Property for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority to any other Individual Property, and Administrative Agent may seek satisfaction out of all of the Properties or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Administrative Agent shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose the Security Instruments in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Security Instruments then due and payable as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Administrative Agent may foreclose one or more of the Security Instruments to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Administrative Agent elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Administrative Agent may foreclose one or more of the Security Instruments to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan as Administrative Agent may accelerate and such other sums secured by one or more of the Security Instruments as Administrative Agent may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the Properties shall remain subject to the Security Instruments to secure payment of sums secured by the Security Instruments and not previously recovered.
(d) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, security instruments and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent from time to time, promptly after the request of Administrative Agent, a severance agreement and such other documents as Administrative Agent shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Administrative Agent shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) Business Days after notice has been given to Borrower by Administrative Agent of Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents and the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the Closing Date.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, any amounts recovered from the Property (or any portion thereof) or any other collateral for the Loan (including any amounts on deposit in the Restricted Account and/or the Cash Management Account) and/or paid to or received by Administrative Agent may, during the continuance of an Event of Default, be applied by Administrative Agent toward the Debt and/or for any other purpose for which such funds may be applied by Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of any Loan Documents, in such order, priority and proportions as Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall determine.
157
(f) During the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder or being deemed to have cured any Event of Default hereunder, make, do or perform any obligation of Borrower hereunder in such manner and to such extent as Administrative Agent may deem necessary. Administrative Agent is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property for such purposes, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by applicable law), with interest as provided in this Section, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Administrative Agent upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after such cost or expense was incurred until the date of payment to Administrative Agent. All such costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by the liens, claims and security interests provided to Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Administrative Agent therefore.

For avoidance of doubt, at all times the weighted average Interest Rate of all components of the Loan shall equal the weighted average Interest Rate at Closing; provided, however, that the weighted average Interest Rate may subsequently change as a result of (x) after a rated Securitization, any voluntary prepayment of the Loan and (y) any applications to principal during the continuance of an Event of Default.
159
(c) If, at the time a Disclosure Document is being prepared for a Securitization, Administrative Agent expects that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more Affiliates of Borrower collectively, or the Property alone or the Property and Related Properties collectively, will be a Significant Obligor, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent upon request (without duplication and to the extent not previously provided) (i) the selected financial data or, if applicable, net operating income, required under Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB, if Administrative Agent expects that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization does, equal or exceed ten percent (10%) (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization, or (ii) the financial statements required under Item 1112(b)(2) of Regulation AB, if Administrative Agent expects that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization does, equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization.

If requested by Administrative Agent, Xxxxxxxx shall furnish to Administrative Agent financial data and/or financial statements for any tenant of the Property (in Borrower’s possession or control and permitted to be disclosed) if, in connection with a Securitization, Administrative Agent expects there to be, with respect to such tenant or group of Affiliated tenants, a concentration within all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization such that such tenant or group of Affiliated tenants would constitute a Significant Obligor.
160

(b) Administrative Agent and/or Lender shall cause to be delivered to Borrower the Disclosure Documents for review and comment by Borrower at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date upon which Borrower is otherwise required to confirm such Disclosure Documents. Xxxxxxxx agrees to provide, in connection with the Securitization, an indemnification agreement (i) certifying that (A) Borrower has, at Administrative Agent’s request in connection with each Securitization, reviewed the Disclosure Documents as follows: (x) with respect to the offering circular, the sections entitled “Executive Summary of Offering Circular”, “Description of the Properties”, “Description of the Borrower, Mezzanine Borrower the Guarantor and Related Parties”, “Description of the Property Manager” (if the Manager is an Affiliated Manager), “Description of the Management Agreement”, “Description of the Ground Leases”, “Description of PILOT Lease and PILOT Documents,” “Description of the Condominium Documents,” “Use of Proceeds,” and “Annex E – Representations and Warranties of the Borrowers” (or sections similarly titled or covering similar subject matters) and (y) with respect to the term sheet, all sections, solely to the extent the foregoing in (x) and (y) relate to Borrower, Mezzanine Borrower, any SPE Component Entity, any Mezzanine SPE Component Entity, Sponsor, Guarantor, Manager (if the Manager is an Affiliated Manager), and the Properties, excluding (I) any underwritten financial information (except to the extent such underwritten financial information is included in the Provided Information), (II) any information (including financial information or forecasted information) that is solely obtained from any third party report, including, without limitation appraisals, property condition reports or environmental reports, (III) any electronic media (except those portions of Annex A that are not otherwise excluded pursuant to this clause (A) and Annex E), (IV) any financial projections or reforecasts relating to the performance of the Properties and the other collateral for the Loan (except to the extent such projections or reforecasts are included in the Provided Information), (V) any statements and information relating to the cities and regions in which the Properties are located (other than the Property addresses), including local market information and local market performance data, and (VI) any Provided Information solely furnished to the Rating Agencies in connection with the monitoring and/or maintaining of the Securities (collectively with the Provided Information, the “Covered Disclosure Information”), and (B) the Covered Disclosure Information and representations contained in such Sections do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (ii) jointly and severally indemnifying Administrative Agent, Lender and any Affiliate of Lender and Administrative Agent that has filed any registration statement relating to the Securitization or has acted as the sponsor or depositor in connection with the Securitization, any Affiliate of Lender or Administrative Agent that acts as an underwriter, placement agent or initial purchaser of Securities issued in the Securitization, any other co-underwriters, co-placement agents or co-initial purchasers of Securities issued in the Securitization, and each of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates and each Person or entity who controls any such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”), for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, reasonable costs or expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses for enforcement of these obligations (collectively, the “Liabilities”)) to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject (whether or not arising from any third-party claim) insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Covered Disclosure Information or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in the Covered Disclosure Information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Covered Disclosure Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (B) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Covered Disclosure Information based upon information provided to Lender and/or Administrative Agent by or on behalf of Borrower or its Affiliates, and (iii) agreeing to reimburse each Indemnified Person for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person, as they are incurred, in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise have. Moreover, the indemnification provided for in clauses (ii) and (iii) above shall be effective whether or not an indemnification agreement described in clause (i) above is provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification agreement shall not require, with respect to any financial projections or reforecasts that are included in the Covered Disclosure Information or in the Disclosure Documents (to the extent such projections or reforecasts are included in the Covered Disclosure Information), that the Borrower be liable for any Liabilities resulting from the actual results being different from such projections or reforecasts so long as (i) the Borrower had no reason to believe that such projections or reforecasts were materially inaccurate and (ii) the Borrower has disclosed to Lender and Administrative Agent all facts known to them and have not failed to disclose any fact known to them, in each case that could be reasonably expected to cause any such projections or reforecasts or representation or warranty made herein to be materially misleading. Borrower shall not be liable for any Liabilities arising from Administrative Agent’s or Xxxxxx’s failure to revise any Disclosure Document and/or Covered Rating Agency Information to reflect any Borrower comments to the Covered Disclosure Information that have been delivered in writing to Administrative Agent and Lender and are specifically set forth on a schedule to the indemnification agreement.
162
(c) In connection with filings under the Exchange Act, Borrower jointly and severally agrees to indemnify (i) the Indemnified Persons for Liabilities to which any such Indemnified Person may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact in the Covered Disclosure Information, or the omission or alleged omission to state in the Covered Disclosure Information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Covered Disclosure Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (ii) reimburse each Indemnified Person for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Persons, as they are incurred, in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (A) the Borrower shall not be responsible for (x) any liabilities relating to untrue statements or omissions in any Covered Disclosure Information which Borrower provided notice to Administrative Agent in writing prior to the applicable filings under the Exchange Act, or (y) any liabilities relating to any filings under the Exchange Act (or the applicable provisions thereof) that Borrower is not first provided an opportunity to review; and (B) with respect to any filings under the Exchange Act of materials not provided by Borrower (or not required to be provided by Borrower), the Borrower shall not be liable for any misstatements or omissions in the applicable filings under the Exchange Act relating to such information resulting from Administrative Agent’s failure to accurately transcribe written information by or on behalf of the Borrower to Administrative Agent unless Borrower was provided a reasonable opportunity to review such filings under the Exchange Act of such materials not provided by Borrower (or the applicable portions thereof) and failed to notify Administrative Agent of such misstatements or omissions.
163
(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 11.2 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 11.2, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof (but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which the indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify causes prejudice to the indemnifying party). In the event that any action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled, jointly with any other indemnifying party, to participate therein and, to the extent that it (or they) may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel xxxxxxxxxxxx to such indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party under this Section 11.2, such indemnifying party shall pay for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnifying party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party at the cost of the indemnifying party.
(e) The liabilities and obligations of Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lender under this Section 11.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt. Failure by Borrower to comply with the provisions of Section 11.1 and/or Section 11.2 within the timeframes specified therein shall, at Administrative Agent’s option, constitute a breach of the terms thereof and/or an Event of Default. Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact to take any actions required of any Borrower under Sections 11.1, 11.2, and/or 11.6 in the event any Borrower fails to do the same, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest.
Section 11.3. Reserves/Escrows. In the event that Securities are issued in connection with the Loan, all funds held by Administrative Agent in escrow or pursuant to reserves in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deposited in “eligible accounts” at “eligible institutions” and, to the extent applicable, invested in “permitted investments” as then defined and required by the Rating Agencies.
164
Section 11.4. Servicer. At the option of Administrative Agent, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer selected by Administrative Agent (the “Servicer”) and Administrative Agent may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to such Servicer pursuant to a servicing agreement between Administrative Agent and such Servicer (the “Servicing Agreement”). Without limitation of any other provision contained herein, Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the set-up costs and other initial costs relating to or arising under the applicable Servicing Agreement with Servicer and Borrower shall not be responsible for the payment of the regular monthly master servicing fee or any other fees and expenses of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall promptly reimburse Administrative Agent on demand for (a) all actual out-of-pocket reasonable costs and expenses incurred for enforcement of the Loan, liquidation fees, workout fees, special servicing fees, operating advisor fees, certificate administrator fees or any other similar fees, (b) to the extent late charges and default interest under the Loan Documents paid by Borrower are insufficient to pay the same, interest payable on advances made by Servicer or the trustee with respect to (i) delinquent Debt Service payments or expenses related to curing an Event of Default, payable by Administrative Agent to Servicer or a trustee and provided for under any Servicing Agreement or actual out of pocket reasonable expenses paid by Servicer or a trustee in respect of the protection and preservation of any Property (including, without limitation, payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums), (ii) as a result of an Event of Default under the Loan or the Loan becoming specially serviced, an enforcement, refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided for under the Loan Documents in the nature of a “work-out” of the Loan Documents or any insolvency or bankruptcy of Borrower or (iii) the documentation of a conversion of the Benchmark and any related Conforming Changes, and (c) during the continuance of an Event of Default, the costs of all property inspections and/or appraisals of the Properties (or any updates to any existing inspection or appraisal) that Servicer may be required to obtain (other than the cost of regular annual inspections required to be borne by Servicer under any Servicing Agreement). Additionally, Borrower shall pay the customary and reasonable servicing fees in connection with any special requests made by Borrower during the term of the Loan.
Section 11.5. Rating Agency Costs. In connection with any Rating Agency Confirmation or other Rating Agency consent, approval or review required hereunder (other than the initial review of the Loan by the Rating Agencies in connection with a Securitization), Borrower shall pay all of the costs and expenses of Administrative Agent, Lender, Servicer and each Rating Agency in connection therewith, and, if applicable, shall pay any fees imposed by any Rating Agency in connection therewith.
Section 11.6. New Mezzanine Option. Administrative Agent shall have the option (the “New Mezzanine Option”) at any time after the Closing and prior to a Securitization and at Borrower’s sole cost and expense to divide the Loan into two parts, a mortgage loan and a mezzanine loan; provided, that (i) the total loan amounts for such mortgage loan and such mezzanine loan shall equal the then outstanding amount of the Loan immediately prior to Administrative Agent’s exercise of the Mezzanine Option, and (ii) the weighted average spread of such mortgage loan and mezzanine loan shall equal the weighted average Spread at Closing; provided, however, that the weighted average Spread may subsequently change as a result of (x) any payments of principal that are not applied on a pro rata basis in accordance with the terms hereof between the mezzanine loan and the mortgage loan (including any payments of the principal amount of the mortgage loan that are not applied on a pro rata basis to the Notes) and (y) any applications to principal during the continuance of an Event of Default. Borrower shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, cooperate with Administrative Agent in Administrative Agent’s exercise of the Mezzanine Option in good faith and in a timely manner, which such cooperation shall include, but not be limited to, (i) executing such amendments to the Loan Documents and Borrower or any SPE Component Entity’s organizational documents as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, (ii) creating one or more Special Purpose Entities (the “New Mezzanine Borrower”), which such New Mezzanine Borrower shall (A) own, directly or indirectly, one hundred percent (100%) of the equity ownership interests in Borrower (the “Equity Collateral”), and (B) together with such constituent equity owners of such New Mezzanine Borrower as may be designated by Administrative Agent, execute such agreements, instruments and other documents as may be required by Administrative Agent in connection with the mezzanine loan (including, without limitation, a promissory note evidencing the mezzanine loan and a pledge and security agreement pledging the Equity Collateral to Lender as security for the mezzanine loan); and (iii) delivering such opinions, title endorsements, UCC title insurance policies, documents and/or instruments relating to the Property Documents and other materials as may be required by Administrative Agent or the Rating Agencies; provided, that, (i) the Stated Maturity Date shall not be affected and the time periods during which Borrower is permitted to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents shall not be decreased; (ii) no such bifurcation or reallocation shall require any amortization of the Loan and (iii) there shall be no modification of the Loan Documents except to reflect the creation of such loans, participations, components or notes and the loan documents relating to such loans, components and/or notes shall be in substantially the form of the Loan Documents.
165
Section 11.7. Registered Form. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Note is, and any other promissory notes issued under the Loan Documents shall be, registered as to both principal and any stated interest. Administrative Agent or Servicer, acting for this purpose solely as a non-fiduciary agent of Xxxxxxxx, shall maintain a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the name and address of each Lender, the outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and other fees due it hereunder (any such amount a “Borrower Obligation”) and whether such Lender is the original Lender or an assignee pursuant to an assignment permitted under this Agreement. The Register shall be made available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and Xxxxxxxx and Administrative Agent shall treat the Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of any Borrower Obligation held by such holder, as indicated in the Register, for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register is intended to be maintained in such a manner as to cause the Note to be considered to be in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the IRS Code. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loan or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement.

FURTHER ASSURANCES
Section 15.1. Replacement Documents. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Note, this Agreement or such other Loan Document, Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement thereof, dated the date of the Note, this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as applicable, in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.
Section 15.2. Recording of Security Instrument, etc.
(a) Borrower forthwith upon the execution and delivery of the Security Instrument and thereafter, from time to time, will cause the Security Instrument and any of the other Loan Documents creating a lien or security interest or evidencing the lien hereof upon the Property and each instrument of further assurance to be filed, registered or recorded in such manner and in such places as may be required by any present or future law in order to publish notice of and fully to protect and perfect the lien or security interest hereof upon, and the interest of Administrative Agent in, the Property. Borrower will pay all taxes, filing, registration or recording fees, and all expenses incident to the preparation, execution, acknowledgment and/or recording of the Note, the Security Instrument, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any note, deed of trust or mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Property and any instrument of further assurance, and any modification or amendment of the foregoing documents, and all federal, state, county and municipal taxes, duties, imposts, assessments and charges arising out of or in connection with the execution and delivery of the Security Instrument, any deed of trust or mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Property or any instrument of further assurance, and any modification or amendment of the foregoing documents, except where prohibited by applicable law so to do. The foregoing taxes, fees, expenses, duties, imposts, assessments and charges, as applicable, are herein referred to as the “Security Instrument Taxes”.
176
(b) Xxxxxxxx represents that it has paid all Security Instrument Taxes imposed upon the execution and recordation of each Security Instrument. If at any time Administrative Agent determines, based on applicable Legal Requirements, that Administrative Agent is not being afforded the maximum amount of security available from any one or more of the Properties as a direct or indirect result of applicable Security Instrument Taxes not having been paid with respect to any Individual Property, Xxxxxxxx agrees that Borrower will execute, acknowledge and deliver to Administrative Agent, immediately upon Administrative Agent’s request, supplemental affidavits increasing the amount of the Debt attributable to any such Individual Property to an amount determined by Administrative Agent to be equal to the lesser of (i) the greater of the fair market value of the applicable Individual Property (1) as of the date hereof and (2) as of the date such supplemental affidavits are to be delivered to Administrative Agent, and (ii) the amount of the Debt attributable to any such Individual Property (as set forth on Schedule V hereof), and Borrower shall, on demand, pay any additional Security Instrument Taxes.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent and/or Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and any other Loan Document (including the advances owing to it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
Section 15.3. Further Acts, etc. Xxxxxxxx will, at the cost of Xxxxxxxx, and without expense to Administrative Agent or Xxxxxx, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all and every further acts, deeds, conveyances, deeds of trust, mortgages, assignments, notices of assignments, transfers and assurances as Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, reasonably require, for the better assuring, conveying, assigning, transferring, and confirming unto Administrative Agent the property and rights hereby mortgaged, deeded, granted, bargained, sold, conveyed, confirmed, pledged, assigned, warranted and transferred or intended now or hereafter so to be, or which Borrower may be or may hereafter become bound to convey or assign to Administrative Agent, or for carrying out the intention or facilitating the performance of the terms of this Agreement or for filing, registering or recording the Security Instrument, or for complying with all Legal Requirements. Xxxxxxxx, on demand, will execute and deliver, and in the event it shall fail to so execute and deliver, hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to execute in the name of Borrower or without the signature of Borrower to the extent Administrative Agent may lawfully do so, one or more financing statements to evidence more effectively the security interest of Administrative Agent in the Property. Borrower grants to Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest for the purpose of exercising and perfecting any and all rights and remedies available to Administrative Agent at law and in equity, including without limitation, such rights and remedies available to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 15.3.
Section 15.4. Changes in Tax, Debt, Credit and Documentary Stamp Laws.
(a) If any law is enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this Agreement which deducts the Debt from the value of the Property for the purpose of taxation and which imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on the Debt or Administrative Agent’s or Xxxxxx’s interest in the Property, Borrower will pay the tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. If Administrative Agent or Xxxxxx is advised by counsel chosen by it that the payment of tax by Xxxxxxxx would be unlawful or taxable to Administrative Agent or Lender or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury then Administrative Agent or Lender shall have the option by written notice of not less than ninety (90) days to declare the Debt immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any tax on Administrative Agent’s or Xxxxxx’s interest in the Property under this Section 15.4 from and after any transfer of the Property to Administrative Agent or its designee by foreclosure, power of sale (if applicable under the laws of the State in which the Property is located), deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise.
177
(b) Borrower will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or credits on account of the Debt for any part of the Taxes or Other Charges assessed against the Property, or any part thereof, and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from the assessed value of the Property, or any part thereof, for real estate tax purposes by reason of the Security Instrument or the Debt. If such claim, credit or deduction shall be required by applicable law, Administrative Agent shall have the option, by written notice of not less than ninety (90) days, to declare the Debt immediately due and payable.
(c) If at any time the United States of America, any State thereof or any subdivision of any such State shall require revenue or other stamps to be affixed to the Note, the Security Instrument, or any of the other Loan Documents or impose any other tax or charge on the same, Borrower will pay for the same, with interest and penalties thereon, if any.

WAIVERS
Section 16.1. Remedies Cumulative; Waivers.
The rights, powers and remedies of Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which Administrative Agent or Lender may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Administrative Agent’s and Xxxxxx’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Administrative Agent and/or Lender may determine in Administrative Agent’s or Xxxxxx’s sole discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.
Section 16.2. Modification, Waiver in Writing.
No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents, nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given.

Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Administrative Agent or Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or any other instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents, neither Administrative Agent nor Lender shall be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.
Section 16.4. Waiver of Trial by Jury.

Section 16.6. Remedies of Borrower.
In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Administrative Agent, Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by applicable law or under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Xxxxxxxx agrees that neither Administrative Agent, Xxxxxx nor any of their respective agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Xxxxxxxx’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking specific performance, injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Administrative Agent or Xxxxxx has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking specific performance, injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. Administrative Agent and Lender agree that, in such event, it shall cooperate in expediting any action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.
179
Section 16.7. Marshalling and Other Matters.
Borrower hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the benefit of all appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, reinstatement and redemption laws now or hereafter in force and all rights of marshalling in the event of any sale under the Security Instrument of the Property or any part thereof or any interest therein. Further, Borrower hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption from sale under any order or decree of foreclosure of the Security Instrument on behalf of Borrower, and on behalf of each and every person acquiring any interest in or title to the Property subsequent to the date of the Security Instrument and on behalf of all persons to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.
Section 16.8. Waiver of Statute of Limitations.
To the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, Borrower hereby expressly waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to payment of the Debt or performance of its obligations hereunder, under the Note, Security Instrument or other Loan Documents.
Section 16.9. Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Administrative Agent or its agents.
Section 16.10. Sole Discretion of Administrative Agent. Subject to Section 18.11, wherever pursuant to this Agreement (a) Administrative Agent exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, (b) any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Administrative Agent, or (c) any other decision or determination is to be made by Administrative Agent, the decision to approve or disapprove all decisions that arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory, and all other decisions and determinations made by Administrative Agent, shall be in the sole discretion of Administrative Agent, except as may be otherwise expressly and specifically provided herein.

(a) Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx and Administrative Agent intend that the relationships created under this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower and Administrative Agent or Borrower and Xxxxxx nor to grant Administrative Agent any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or Administrative Agent on behalf of Xxxxxx.
184
(b) This Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note and the other Loan Documents are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent, Xxxxxx and Borrower and nothing contained in this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone other than Lender, Administrative Agent and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein. All conditions to the obligations of Xxxxxx and Administrative Agent to make the Loan hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and Administrative Agent and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender and Administrative Agent will refuse to make the Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Administrative Agent if, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, Administrative Agent deems it advisable or desirable to do so.
(c) The general partners, members, principals and (if Borrower is a trust) beneficial owners of Borrower are experienced in the ownership and operation of properties similar to the Property, and Xxxxxxxx, Administrative Agent and Lender are relying solely upon such expertise and business plan in connection with the ownership and operation of the Property. Borrower is not relying on Administrative Agent’s or Xxxxxx’s expertise, business acumen or advice in connection with the Property.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Administrative Agent and Lender are not undertaking the performance of (i) any obligations related to the Property (including, without limitation, under the Leases); or (ii) any obligations with respect to any agreements, contracts, certificates, instruments, franchises, permits, trademarks, licenses and other documents to which any Borrower Party and/or the Property (or any portion thereof) is subject.
(e) By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed or fulfilled or to be given to Administrative Agent and/or Lender pursuant to this Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note or the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any officer’s certificate, balance sheet, statement of profit and loss or other financial statement, survey, appraisal, or insurance policy, Administrative Agent and/or Lender shall not be deemed to have warranted, consented to, or affirmed the sufficiency, the legality or effectiveness of same, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute any warranty or affirmation with respect thereto by Administrative Agent or Lender.
(f) Borrower recognizes and acknowledges that in accepting this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, Lender and Administrative Agent are expressly and primarily relying on the truth and accuracy in all material respects of the representations and warranties set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement without any obligation to investigate the Property and notwithstanding any investigation of the Property by Lender or Administrative Agent; that such reliance existed on the part of Lender or Administrative Agent prior to the date hereof, that the warranties and representations are a material inducement to Lender in making the Loan; and that Xxxxxx would not be willing to make the Loan and accept this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents in the absence of the warranties and representations as set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement.
185
Section 17.11. Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Xxxxxxxx, Administrative Agent, Lender or their respective Affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents, or to Administrative Agent, Lender or any of their respective Affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval of Administrative Agent, Lender or Borrower, as applicable, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The foregoing shall not apply to any marketing materials that are prepared by or on behalf of Administrative Agent or Lender in connection with a potential Secondary Market Transaction, it being agreed that Administrative Agent and Lender shall have the right to issue, without Borrower’s approval, and Borrower hereby authorizes Lender and/or Administrative Agent to issue, such marketing materials, term sheets and other materials as Administrative Agent or Lender may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with Administrative Agent’s or Lender’s own marketing activities with respect to any potential Secondary Market Transaction, and such materials may describe the Loan in general terms or in detail and Administrative Agent’s or Xxxxxx’s participation therein.
Section 17.12. Limitation of Liability. No claim may be made by Xxxxxxxx, or any other Person against Administrative Agent or Lender or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of such Persons for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.
Section 17.13. Conflict; Construction of Documents; Reliance. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Instrument, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting and execution of this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or recommendations of Administrative Agent or Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Administrative Agent or Lender. Neither Lender nor Administrative Agent shall be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any rights or remedies available to it under this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents or any other agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Administrative Agent or Lender of any equity interest any of them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with respect to Administrative Agent’s or Xxxxxx’s exercise of any such rights or remedies. Xxxxxxxx acknowledges that each of Administrative Agent and Xxxxxx engages in the business of real estate financings and other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse-to or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.
186
Section 17.14. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written between Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lender are superseded by the terms of this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such prior agreement by its terms survives the closing of the Loan.
Section 17.15. Liability. If Borrower consists of more than one Person, the obligations and liabilities of each such Person hereunder shall be joint and several. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Xxxxxxxx, Administrative Agent and Xxxxxx and their respective successors and assigns.
Section 17.16. Duplicate Originals; Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of duplicate originals and each duplicate original shall be deemed to be an original. The failure of any party hereto to execute this Agreement, or any counterpart hereof, shall not relieve the other signatories from their obligations hereunder.
Section 17.17. Brokers. Xxxxxxxx agrees (i) to pay any and all fees imposed or charged by all brokers, mortgage bankers and advisors (each a “Broker”) hired or contracted by any Borrower Party or their Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) to indemnify and hold Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands and liabilities for brokerage commissions, assignment fees, finder’s fees or other compensation whatsoever arising from this Agreement or the making of the Loan which may be asserted against Administrative Agent or any Lender by any Person. Borrower hereby represents and warrants that a Broker has not been engaged by any Borrower Party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Lender hereby represents and warrants that a Broker has not been engaged by such Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Debt. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (a) any Broker is not an agent of Administrative Agent or Lender and has no power or authority to bind Administrative Agent and/or Lender, (b) Administrative Agent and Lender are not responsible for any recommendations or advice given to any Borrower Party by any Broker, (c) Administrative Agent, Lender and the Borrower Parties have dealt at arms-length with each other in connection with the Loan, (d) no fiduciary or other special relationship exists or shall be deemed or construed to exist among Administrative Agent, Lender and the Borrower Parties and (e) none of the Borrower Parties shall be entitled to rely on any assurances or waivers given, or statements made or actions taken, by any Broker which purport to bind Administrative Agent and/or Lender or modify or otherwise affect this Agreement or the Loan, unless Lender has, in its sole discretion, agreed in writing with any such Borrower Party to such assurances, waivers, statements, actions or modifications. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Administrative and/or any Lender may, in its sole discretion, pay fees or compensation to any Broker in connection with or arising out of the closing and funding of the Loan. Such fees and compensation, if any, (i) shall be in addition to any fees which may be paid by any Borrower Party to such Broker and (ii) create a potential conflict of interest for Broker in its relationship with the Borrower Parties. Such fees and compensation, if applicable, may include a direct, one-time payment, servicing fees and/or incentive payments based on volume and size of financings involving Administrative Agent and/or Lender and such Broker.
187
Section 17.18. Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lender provided by this Agreement and by law, Administrative Agent and Lender shall have the right in its sole discretion, without prior notice to Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Administrative Agent or such Lender or any Affiliate of the foregoing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower; provided, however, Administrative Agent and Lender may only exercise such right during the continuance of an Event of Default. Each of Administrative Agent and Xxxxxx agrees promptly to notify Borrower after any such set-off and application made by Administrative Agent and/or such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
Section 17.19. Contributions and Waivers.
(a) As a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Borrower will benefit, directly and indirectly, from each Borrower’s obligation to pay the Debt and perform its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Obligations”) and in consideration therefore each Borrower desires to enter into an allocation and contribution agreement among themselves as set forth in this Section to allocate such benefits among themselves and to provide a fair and equitable agreement to make contributions among each of Borrowers in the event any payment is made by any individual Borrower hereunder to Administrative Agent (such payment being referred to herein as a “Contribution,” and for purposes of this Section, includes any exercise of recourse by Administrative Agent against any Property of a Borrower and application of proceeds of such Property in satisfaction of such Borrower’s obligations, to Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents).
(b) Each Borrower shall be liable hereunder with respect to the Obligations only for such total maximum amount (if any) that would not render its Obligations hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of applicable Legal Requirements.
(c) In order to provide for a fair and equitable contribution among Borrowers in the event that any Contribution is made by an individual Borrower (a “Funding Borrower”), such Funding Borrower shall be entitled to a reimbursement Contribution (“Reimbursement Contribution”) from all other Borrowers for all payments, damages and expenses incurred by that Funding Borrower in discharging any of the Obligations, in the manner and to the extent set forth in this Section.
188
(d) For purposes hereof, the “Benefit Amount” of any individual Borrower as of any date of determination shall be the net value of the benefits to such Borrower and its Affiliates from extensions of credit made by Administrative Agent to (i) such Borrower and (ii) to the other Borrowers hereunder and the Loan Documents to the extent such other Borrowers have guaranteed or mortgaged their property to secure the Obligations of such Borrower to Administrative Agent.
(e) Each Borrower shall be liable to a Funding Borrower in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the (A) ratio of the Benefit Amount of such Borrower to the total amount of Obligations, multiplied by (B) the amount of Obligations paid by such Funding Borrower, or (ii) ninety-five percent (95%) of the excess of the fair saleable value of the property of such Borrower over the total liabilities of such Borrower (including the maximum amount reasonably expected to become due in respect of contingent liabilities) determined as of the date on which the payment made by a Funding Borrower is deemed made for purposes hereof (giving effect to all payments made by other Funding Borrowers as of such date in a manner to maximize the amount of such Contributions).
(f) In the event that at any time there exists more than one Funding Borrower with respect to any Contribution (in any such case, the “Applicable Contribution”), then Reimbursement Contributions from other Borrowers pursuant hereto shall be allocated among such Funding Borrowers in proportion to the total amount of the Contribution made for or on account of the other Borrowers by each such Funding Borrower pursuant to the Applicable Contribution. In the event that at any time any Borrower pays an amount hereunder in excess of the amount calculated pursuant to this Section above, that Borrower shall be deemed to be a Funding Borrower to the extent of such excess and shall be entitled to a Reimbursement Contribution from the other Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of this Section.
(g) Each Borrower acknowledges that the right to Reimbursement Contribution hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of Borrower to which such Reimbursement Contribution is owing.
(h) No Reimbursement Contribution payments payable by a Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Section shall be paid until all amounts then due and payable by all of Borrowers to Administrative Agent, pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, are paid in full in cash. Nothing contained in this Section shall limit or affect in any way the Obligations of any Borrower to Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.
(i) To the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, each Borrower waives:
(i) any right to require Administrative Agent and/or Lender to proceed against any other Borrower or any other Person or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by Administrative Agent and/or Lender at any time or to pursue any other remedy in Administrative Agent’s or Xxxxxx’s power before proceeding against Xxxxxxxx;
(ii) any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other Borrower, any guarantor of any other Person or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of any other Borrower or any guarantor from any cause other than full payment of all sums payable under the Loan Documents;
189
(iii) any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any other Borrower or any principal of any other Borrower or any defect in the formation of any other Borrower or any principal of any other Borrower;
(iv) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects more burdensome than that of a principal;
(v) any defense based upon any failure by Administrative Agent or Lender to obtain collateral for the indebtedness or failure by Administrative Agent or Lender to perfect a lien on any collateral;
(vi) presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind;
(vii) any defense based upon any failure of Administrative Agent or Lender to give notice of sale or other disposition of any collateral to any other Borrower or to any other Person or any defect in any notice that may be given in connection with any sale or disposition of any collateral;
(viii) Reserved;
(ix) any defense based upon any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code;
(x) any defense based upon any agreement or stipulation entered into by Administrative Agent or Lender with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy proceeding;
(xi) any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code;
(xii) any defense based upon the avoidance of any security interest in favor of Administrative Agent or Lender for any reason;
(xiii) any defense based upon any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation or dissolution proceeding, including any discharge of, or bar or stay against collecting, all or any of the obligations evidenced by the Note or owing under any of the Loan Documents;
(xiv) any defense or benefit based upon Xxxxxxxx’s, or any other party’s, resignation of the portion of any obligation secured by the Security Instrument to be satisfied by any payment from any other Borrower or any such party;
190
(xv) all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Administrative Agent and/or Xxxxxx even though the election of remedies, such as non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for the Loan or any other amounts owing under the Loan Documents, has destroyed Xxxxxxxx’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against any other Borrower; and
(xvi) all rights and defenses that Borrower may have because any of the Debt is secured by real property. This means, among other things (subject to the other terms and conditions of the Loan Documents): (1) Administrative Agent and/or Lender may collect from Borrower without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any other Borrower, and (2) if Administrative Agent and/or Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any other Borrower, (I) the amount of the Debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price and (II) Administrative Agent or Lender, as applicable, may collect from Borrower even if any other Borrower, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Borrower may have to collect from any other Borrower. This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Borrower may have because any of the Debt is secured by real property; and except as may be expressly and specifically permitted herein, any claim or other right which Borrower might now have or hereafter acquire against any other Borrower or any other Person that arises from the existence or performance of any obligations under the Loan Documents, including any of the following: (i) any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, or indemnification; or (ii) any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Administrative Agent or Lender against any other Borrower or any collateral security therefor, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law.
Section 17.20. Cross-Default; Cross-Collateralization.
(a) Borrower acknowledges that Xxxxxx has made the Loan to Borrower upon the security of its collective interest in the Properties and in reliance upon the aggregate of the Properties taken together being of greater value as collateral security than the sum of each Individual Property taken separately. Borrower agrees that each of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Security Instruments) are and will be cross collateralized and cross defaulted with each other so that (i) an Event of Default under any of Loan Documents shall constitute an Event of Default under each of the other Loan Documents; (ii) an Event of Default hereunder shall constitute an Event of Default under each Security Instrument; (iii) each Security Instrument shall constitute security for the Note as if a single blanket lien were placed on all of the Properties as security for the Note; and (iv) such cross collateralization shall in no event be deemed to constitute a fraudulent conveyance and Borrower waives any claims related thereto.
(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Xxxxxxxx, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Xxxxxxxx’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Properties, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of all or any of the Security Instruments, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Administrative Agent or Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Properties for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Administrative Agent or Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Properties in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Security Instruments, any equitable right otherwise available to Borrower which would require the separate sale of the Properties or require Administrative Agent or Lender to exhaust its remedies against any Individual Property or any combination of the Properties before proceeding against any other Individual Property or combination of Properties; and further in the event of such foreclosure Borrower does hereby expressly consent to and authorize, at the option of Administrative Agent or Lender, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of any combination of the Properties.
191
Section 17.21. Intercreditor Agreement. Administrative Agent on behalf of Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx are parties to a certain intercreditor agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) memorializing their relative rights and obligations with respect to the Loan, the Mezzanine Loan, Borrower, Xxxxxxxxx Borrower and the Property. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) such Intercreditor Agreement is intended solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent, Lender and Mezzanine Lender and (ii) Borrower and Mezzanine Borrower are not intended third-party beneficiaries of any of the provisions therein and shall not be entitled to rely on any of the provisions contained therein. None of Administrative Agent, Lender or Mezzanine Lender shall have any obligation to disclose to Borrower or Mezzanine Borrower the contents of the Intercreditor Agreement. Xxxxxxxx’s obligations hereunder are independent of such Intercreditor Agreement and remain unmodified by the terms and provisions thereof. In no event shall Borrower be bound by, or be charged with knowledge of, the terms and conditions of the Intercreditor Agreement.
Section 17.22. Illinois Compiled Statutes. Borrower represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that all proceeds of the Loan evidenced by the Loan Documents will be used for the purposes specified in 815 ILCS 205/4(l) (c) of the Illinois Compiled Statutes, and that the indebtedness secured hereby constitutes a business loan which comes within the purview of such statute.
Section 17.23. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
192
(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or
(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.
Section 17.24. Unintended Payments.
(a) If Citibank, N.A., Citi Real Estate Funding Inc., any Affiliate of the foregoing, or any agent thereof (including, without limitation, any Servicer or Administrative Agent acting on said Person’s behalf) (individually and/or collectively, the “Payor Party”) notifies Borrower, any Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of said Borrower or Lender (any such Borrower, Lender or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Payor Party has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Payor Party or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Borrower, Lender, or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Payor Party and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Payor Party, and such Borrower or Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Payor Party the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Payor Party in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Payor Party in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Payor Party to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Payor Party (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Payor Party (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Payor Party (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:
193
(i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Payor Party to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and
(ii) such Lender shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Payor Party of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Payor pursuant to this Section 17.24(b).
(c) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Payor Party to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Payor Party to such Lender from any source, against any amount due to the Payor Party under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement or any co-lender agreement entered into by and among any such Lender and any Payor Party.
(d) Intentionally Omitted.
(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents by the Borrower, Guarantor, or any Affiliate thereof, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Payor Party from the Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.
(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Payor Party for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.
(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 17.24 shall survive the resignation or replacement of any Payor Party hereunder, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of the Debt and all other obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

ARTICLE 18
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; RELATIONS AMONG LENDERS
Section 18.1. Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Xxxxxx’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement as are specifically delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement for the benefit of Lenders. Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the exercise by Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all Lenders. Nothing herein shall be construed to deem Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms “Agent”, “Administrative Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, use of such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by Administrative Agent, copies of each of the financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms and provisions of Section 4.12 that Borrower is not otherwise required to deliver directly to each Lender. Administrative Agent will furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy (or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to Administrative Agent by any Borrower Party or any Affiliate thereof, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement of the Loan Documents or collection of the Debt), Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the Debt, provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel exposes Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable Legal Requirements, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under the Bankruptcy Code or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of the Bankruptcy Code. Not in limitation of the foregoing, Administrative Agent may exercise or may refrain from exercising any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document during the continuance of an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders have directed Administrative Agent otherwise and unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received directions from the Requisite Lenders, Administrative Agent may take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to any existing Event of Default as Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion; provided that in the event Administrative Agent shall not have received direction from the Requisite Lenders with respect to commencing, or refraining from commencing, the exercise of remedies pursuant to this Agreement prior to the date that is sixty (60) days following the date on which Administrative Agent has provided notice to the Lenders of such Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall commence the exercise of remedies in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Furthermore, and without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof, or where applicable, the Requisite Lenders or all the Lenders. Except as otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall have no obligation to recognize or deal directly with any Lender. Borrower may direct all notices, financial reporting, and requests for consents or approvals and any other relayed documentation or information to Administrative Agent and may conclusively rely upon the actions of Administrative Agent to bind the Lenders, notwithstanding that any particular action in question may, pursuant to this Agreement or any Lender Document, be subject to the consent or approval of some or all of the Lender in accordance with Section 18.11. This Article 18 replaces any prior co-origination or co-lender agreement among or between any of the Lenders with respect to the Loan and any such document is hereby terminated.

Section 18.2. Citi as Lender. Citibank, N.A., as a Lender, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though Citibank, N.A. were not Administrative Agent; and, so long as Citibank, N.A. directly holds or owns rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Note, the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Citibank, N.A., in each case, in its individual capacity. With respect to other transactions or matters unrelated to the Loan, Citibank, N.A. and its affiliates may accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower Party or any other Affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefore to the other Lenders. Further, Administrative Agent and any affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from Borrower or any of their Affiliates for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, with respect to other transactions or matters unrelated to the Loan, Citibank, N.A. and its affiliates may receive information regarding any Borrower Party and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.
Section 18.3. Collateral Matters; Protective Advances.
(a) Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Individual Property or Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the liens upon such Individual Property granted pursuant to any of the Loan Documents.
(b) Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any lien granted to or held by Administrative Agent upon an Individual Property (i) upon indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Debt; (ii) as expressly permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document, including, without limitation, pursuant to the terms and provisions of Section 2.10; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by Xxxxxxx in accordance with Section 18.11 hereof. Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, Xxxxxxx will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release such Individual Property pursuant to this Section 18.3.
196
(c) Upon any sale and transfer of an Individual Property pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the liens granted to Administrative Agent for its benefit and the benefit of Lenders herein or pursuant hereto upon the Individual Property that was sold or transferred, provided that (i) Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Debt or any liens upon (or obligations of Borrower or Guarantor in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower Parties, including the proceeds of such sale or transfer to the extent Lender is permitted to retain the same under the terms of this Agreement, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Individual Property. In the event of any sale or transfer of any Individual Property, or any foreclosure with respect to any Individual Property, Administrative Agent shall be authorized to deduct all of the expenses reasonably and actually incurred by Administrative Agent from the proceeds of any such sale, transfer or foreclosure (including, without limitation, any transfer or similar taxes incurred in connection with any such sale or transfer of the Individual Property).
(d) Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Individual Property exists or is owned by Borrower is cared for, protected or insured or that the liens granted to Administrative Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Administrative Agent in this Section 18.3 or in any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Individual Property, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, and that Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to Lenders, except to the extent resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.
(e) Each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent in accordance with its applicable Pro Rata Share with respect to (i) any fees payable pursuant to any Servicing Agreement and (ii) to the extent that the same are not reimbursed by Borrower pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof, Protective Advances with respect to any Individual Property up to the sum of (x) amounts expended to pay Taxes imposed upon the applicable Individual Property; (y) amounts expended to pay Insurance Premiums related to the applicable Individual Property; and (z) $5,000,000. Protective Advances in excess of said sum for the applicable Individual Property shall require the consent of the Requisite Lenders. Xxxxxxxx agrees to pay on demand all Protective Advances.
197
Section 18.4. Post Foreclosure Plans. If all or any portion of the Property is acquired by Administrative Agent as a result of a foreclosure or the acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or is retained in satisfaction of all or any part of the Debt, the title to any such Property, or any portion thereof, shall be held in the name of Administrative Agent or a nominee or subsidiary of Administrative Agent, as Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of all Lenders. Administrative Agent shall prepare a recommended course of action for such Property (a “Post-Foreclosure Plan”), which shall be subject to the approval of the Requisite Lenders. In accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, Administrative Agent shall manage, operate, repair, administer, complete, construct, restore or otherwise deal with the Property acquired, and shall administer all transactions relating thereto, including employing a management agent, leasing agent and other agents, contractors and employees, including agents for the sale of such Property, and the collecting of rents and other sums from such Property and paying the expenses of such Property. Actions taken by Administrative Agent with respect to the Property, which are not specifically provided for in the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan or reasonably incidental thereto, shall require the written consent of the Requisite Lenders by way of supplement to such Post-Foreclosure Plan. Upon demand therefor from time to time, each Lender will contribute its share (based on its Pro Rata Share) of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent pursuant to the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan in connection with the construction, operation, management, maintenance, leasing and sale of such Property. In addition, Administrative Agent shall render or cause to be rendered to each Lender, on a monthly basis, an income and expense statement for such Property, and each Lender shall promptly (but no later than seven (7) Business Days from receipt of such statement) contribute its Pro Rata Share of any operating loss for such Property, and such other expenses and operating reserves as Administrative Agent shall deem reasonably necessary pursuant to and in accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure plan. To the extent there is net operating income from such Property, Administrative Agent shall, in accordance with the approved Post-Foreclosure Plan, determine the amount and timing of distributions to Lenders. All such distributions shall be made to Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Xxxxxxx acknowledge and agree that if title to any Property is obtained by Administrative Agent or its nominee, such Property will not be held as a permanent investment but will be liquidated and the proceeds of such liquidation will be distributed in accordance with Section 18.14 as soon as practicable. Administrative Agent shall undertake to sell such Property, at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Requisite Lenders reasonably shall determine to be most advantageous to Lenders. Any purchase money mortgage or deed of trust taken in connection with the disposition of such Property in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall name Administrative Agent, as administrative agent for Xxxxxxx, as the beneficiary or mortgagee. In such case, Administrative Agent and Xxxxxxx shall enter into an agreement with respect to such purchase money mortgage or deed of trust defining the rights of Xxxxxxx in the same Pro Rata Shares as provided hereunder, which agreement shall be in all material respects similar to this article insofar as the same is appropriate or applicable.
Section 18.5. Approvals of Lenders. All communications from Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender (which written notice may be delivered via electronic mail), (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to Administrative Agent by Xxxxxxxx in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Unless a Lender shall give written notice to Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or determination of Administrative Agent (together with a reasonable written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination, provided that no such deemed approval shall be applicable to consents required pursuant to Section 18.11(c) hereof. Administrative Agent shall have the right to consult with each Lender with respect to any decision to be made by Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof.
198
Section 18.6. Notice of Events of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless (i) Administrative Agent has actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default in its role as Lender, (ii) has received notice from, or on behalf of, a Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or (iii) has received notice from a Lender referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” If any Lender (excluding Lender which is also serving as Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”. Further, if Administrative Agent receives such a “notice of default,” Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to Lenders.
Section 18.7. Administrative Agent’s Reliance. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment) in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the Borrower Parties or any of their Affiliates), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall be responsible to any Lender or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by the Borrower Parties or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of Borrower or other Persons or inspect the property, books or records of Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any Property covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any lien in favor of Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders in any such Property; (d) shall have any liability to any Lender in respect of any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Lender by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, facsimile or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.
199
Section 18.8. Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Regardless of whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are consummated, each Lender agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Xxxxxxxx and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Xxxxxx’s respective Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not as a “Lender”) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”), provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment, provided, further that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of Lenders, if expressly required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 18.8. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Xxxxxx agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Xxxxxxxx and without limiting any obligation of Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any out of pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to Administrative Agent) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents, any suit or action brought by Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Rent any workout, forbearance or modification of the Loan Documents or Debt, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against Administrative Agent and/or Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against Administrative Agent and/or Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws (as defined in the Environmental Indemnity), provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such costs to the extent resulting from Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment. Such out of pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by Xxxxxxx on the request of Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by Administrative Agent that Administrative Agent will reimburse Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section 18.8 shall survive the payment of the Debt and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement. If Xxxxxxxx shall reimburse Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section 18.8, Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.
200
Section 18.9. Lender Credit Decision, Etc. Each Lender expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys in fact or other affiliates has made any representations or warranties to such Lender and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower Parties or any of their Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to Administrative Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on the financial statements of Xxxxxxxx, the other Borrower Parties and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of Borrower, the other Borrower Parties and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower Parties of the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, the Borrower Parties or any of their Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or other Affiliates. Each Lender acknowledges that Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Lender except as may otherwise be agreed to in writing between such counsel and such Xxxxxx and consented to by Administrative Agent.
Section 18.10. Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent xxx resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving thirty (30) days’ written notice thereof to Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the current Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of Xxxxxxx, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee (as defined in that certain commitment letter dated as of November 5, 2021 between Sponsor and Xxxxxxx). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 18 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its affiliates by giving Borrower and each Lender prior written notice. Upon the occurrence of any of the following, the Requisite Lenders (excluding the Lender acting as, or Affiliated with, Administrative Agent hereunder from the determination of the Requisite Lenders) may, by delivering written notice to Administrative Agent, remove Administrative Agent from its role as administrative agent for the Lenders, without affecting Administrative Agent’s rights or obligations as a Lender, and appoint a successor Administrative Agent: (i) Administrative Agent commits gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; or (ii) the Lender acting as Administrative Agent (or an Affiliate thereof) no longer owns a Pro Rata Share of the Loan (it being understood that if the Lender acting as Administrative Agent (or an Affiliate thereof) participates its interest in the Loan it shall still be deemed to own the portion of the Loan so participated for purposes of this clause (ii)).

No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto.
Section 18.12. Defaulting and Non-Consenting Lender. If any Lender (a) becomes a Defaulting Lender, (b) declines to consent to any amendment, waiver or consent that shall have been requested in a writing by Borrower to Administrative Agent, which amendment, waiver or consent is a Unanimous Decision and/or a Requisite Lender Decision and has been recommended and approved by Administrative Agent (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) and such amendment, waiver or consent is not approved (e.g., all other Lenders or all other Requisite Lenders, as applicable, have consented to such amendment, waiver or consent and such consent is insufficient in accordance with this Agreement to approve such amendment, waiver or consent), then Borrower (with respect to a Non-Consenting Lender) or Lender (with respect to a Defaulting Lender), upon ten (10) Business Days’ written notice to Administrative Agent and such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable (the “Consent Request Date”) may, at Borrower’s sole expense and effort (with respect to a Non-Consenting Lender) or Lender’s sole expense and effort (with respect to a Defaulting Lender) require such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable to assign and delegate all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to an institutional lender approved by Administrative Agent that shall assume such obligations; provided that (i) with respect to a Non-Consenting Lender, as of such Consent Request Date and as of the date that such Non-Consenting Lender is replaced in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing other than an Event of Default which results solely from the subject matter of the amendment, waiver or consent that such Non-Consenting Lender disapproved, (ii) Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent an assignment fee of $10,000, (iii) such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, shall have received from the assignee Lender or Borrower payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan outstanding and owed to such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, as of the date such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, is replaced, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and any other amounts due and payable to the Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of its Loan had the Loan been repaid in full at such time (less, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, any amounts owed by such Defaulting Lender), (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law and (v) with respect to a Non-Consenting Lender, such assignee Lender consents to the proposed amendment, waiver or consent on account of which Borrower shall have exercised its rights pursuant to this paragraph; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties in writing, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Xxxxxx’s having been a Defaulting Lender. A Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if prior thereto, either (A) with respect to a Non-Consenting Lender, such Non-Consenting Lender consents to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent, (B) with respect to a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent agrees in writing such Defaulting Lender has cured any such default or (C) such amendment, waiver or consent required the consent of the Requisite Lenders and the Lenders constituting the Requisite Lenders consent to the same.
204
Section 18.13. Payments.
(a) The Loan, each payment or prepayment of principal of the Loan and each payment of interest on the Loan and all losses, costs and expenses suffered by Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders relating to the Loan, in each case, shall be allocated by Administrative Agent pro rata and on a pari passu basis among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.
(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied toward payment of the amounts then due hereunder ratably among the parties entities thereto, in accordance with the amounts then due to such parties.
(c) If any Lender shall obtain on account of its interest in the Loan any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its Pro Rata Share thereof, such Lender shall immediately (A) notify Administrative Agent of such fact and (B) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in their respective interest in the Loan as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender in connection with any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Xxxxxx’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (1) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (2) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect to the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 18.13(c) and will in each case notify Lenders following any such purchases or repayments.
