TERM LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
THIS TERM LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Loan Agreement”) is dated as of November 2, 2015 and is entered into between SUMMIT APPLETON, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, SUMMIT XXXXXXXXXX MANOR, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, SUMMIT XXXXX VISTA MANOR, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, SUMMIT XXXXX VISTA GARDENS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (each of the foregoing, a “Borrower”, and collectively, “Borrowers”), and PACIFIC WESTERN BANK, a California state-chartered bank (“Lender”).
Recitals
A. Borrowers have requested that Lender make a loan (the “Loan”) to Borrowers in the principal amount of $13,500,000 (the “Loan Amount”). The proceeds of the Loan will be used by Borrowers to acquire the following assisted living and memory care facilities (individually, a “Facility”; collectively, the “Facilities”) known as “Carolina Manor” located in Appleton, Wisconsin; “Xxxxxxxxxx Manor” located in Green Bay Wisconsin; “Xxxxx Vista Manor” located in Green Bay, Wisconsin; and “Xxxxx Vista Gardens” located in Green Bay, Wisconsin and more particularly described on Exhibit “A” to this Agreement..
B. Borrowers have leased the Facilities to each of the Operators (as defined in Appendix B) pursuant to an Operating Lease (as defined in Appendix B), and each of the Operators will operate the Facility it leases. Borrowers and Operators are not Affiliates.
C. Lender is willing to make the Loan to Borrowers upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Loan Agreement.
Agreement
Borrowers and Lender, therefore, agree as follows:
I. | DEFINITIONS/GENERAL TERMS |
Certain terms are defined in Appendix A and Appendix B. Unless otherwise specified in this Loan Agreement, any agreement or contract referred to in this Loan Agreement (including the Loan Documents) means such agreement or contract as the same may from time to time be renewed, modified, amended, restated, consolidated, substituted or replaced. Unless otherwise specified, all accounting terms used but not defined in the Loan Documents have the meanings given to such terms in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, GAAP. Wherever used in the Loan Documents, the term “including” means “including without limitation.”
1 |
II. | ADVANCES, PAYMENT AND INTEREST |
2.1 | Loan |
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Loan Agreement, Lender agrees to make the Loan to Borrowers on the Closing Date. The Loan will consist of a single advance equal to the Loan Amount, to be disbursed to such account or accounts as Borrowers may request in writing. The Loan is not a revolving credit facility, and any repayments of principal may not be re-borrowed.
2.2 | Evidence of Loan |
(a) Lender shall maintain, in accordance with its usual practice, an account evidencing the indebtedness to Lender resulting from the making of the Loan, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to Lender. The entries made in this account shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded in such account, but the failure of Lender to maintain such account or any error in such account shall not in any manner affect the obligations of Borrowers to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.
(b) Borrowers have executed and delivered for the benefit of Lender one or more promissory notes or other evidence of indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Loan Amount in substantially the form of Exhibit B. All references to “Note” or “Notes” in the Loan Documents means the notes, if any, issued (and not returned to Borrowers for cancellation) under this Loan Agreement. Lender may, in its sole discretion, decide to cancel any Note issued under this Loan Agreement without affecting Borrowers’ liability with respect to the Loan or Borrowers’ obligation to pay all amounts outstanding. In such event, Lender may evidence the obligations of Borrowers to Lender on its books and records, which shall constitute prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded in such books and records.
2.3 | Interest Rate; Default Interest Rate; Late Charge |
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Loan Agreement, the principal balance of the Loan shall bear interest at a fluctuating per annum rate of interest equal to the LIBOR Rate plus 4.50%; but for the purpose of calculating interest under this Loan Agreement, the LIBOR Rate shall not be less than 0.19% (the “Applicable Interest Rate”).
(b) Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan shall be calculated on a 360-day year and will be paid for the actual number of days elapsed for any whole or partial month in which interest is being calculated. In computing the number of days during which interest accrues, the day on which funds are initially advanced shall be included regardless of the time of day such advance is made, and the day on which funds are repaid shall be included unless repayment is credited prior to 12:00 p.m. Eastern time.
(c) Each determination of the Applicable Interest Rate by Lender shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers absent manifest error.
2 |
(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Interest Rate. This Default Interest Rate shall continue post-judgment and subsequent to the date that the provisions of any applicable Debtor Relief Law are exercised against any Borrower unless the statutory post-judgment rate of interest is higher. In this case such statutory rate shall apply. The Default Interest Rate shall continue unless and until all existing Events of Default are waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement (or the Loan has been reinstated pursuant to the requirements of applicable law). This clause shall not be construed, however, as an agreement or privilege to extend the due date of any payment, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default. If the Default Interest Rate would otherwise exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, the Default Interest Rate will be limited to the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.
(e) If any sum payable to Lender under this Loan Agreement is not paid on or before the date when due, if any, Borrowers shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 5.00% of such unpaid sum or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by applicable law, in either case to defray the expenses incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment.
2.4 | Payment |
Borrowers unconditionally promise to pay to Lender principal and interest under this Loan Agreement as follows:
(a) beginning on December 5, 2015 (the “First Payment Date”) and on the fifth day of each subsequent calendar month (each such date, including the First Payment Date, a “Payment Date”), Borrowers shall pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan calculated at the Applicable Interest Rate;
(b) on each Payment Date commencing with May 5, 2017, in addition to the payment of interest described in Section 2.4(a), Borrowers shall make a payment in the amount set forth in Schedule 2.4(b) (each, an “Amortization Payment”); and
(c) on the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall pay the entire outstanding principal balance of the Note, together with accrued and unpaid interest and any other amounts due under the Loan Documents.
2.5 | Prepayment |
(a) The outstanding principal balance of the Loan may not be prepaid, in whole or in part, prior to November 5, 2017 (the “Lockout Expiration Date”). If, however, the Loan is for any reason prepaid or accelerated at any time prior to the Lockout Expiration Date (except for refinancings permitted under Section 2.5(c) and except for an acceleration due to Casualty/Condemnation Event at the Property when no Event of Default exists), in addition to paying all other amounts due and payable under this Loan Agreement, Borrowers shall pay Lender the Lockout Termination Fee as liquidated damages for such prohibited prepayment.
3 |
(b) The outstanding principal balance of the Loan may be prepaid in whole (but not in part), at any time after the Lockout Expiration Date if (i) written notice (the “Prepayment Notice”) of such prepayment specifying the intended date of prepayment is received by Lender not less than 60 days prior to the date of such prepayment, and (ii) such prepayment is accompanied by all interest accrued under this Loan Agreement and all other sums due under this Loan Agreement and any other Loan Document. No tender of a prepayment of the Loan shall be effective unless accompanied by all amounts due under the Loan Documents. If these requirements are satisfied, Borrowers may prepay the Loan on the intended prepayment date set forth in any permitted Prepayment Notice or within 30 days thereafter. If Borrowers do not prepay the Loan within 30 days after the date of prepayment specified in the Prepayment Notice, then (a) the Prepayment Notice shall lapse, and Borrowers shall then be required to deliver a new Prepayment Notice to prepay the Loan in accordance with this Section 2.5 and (b) Borrowers shall pay to Lender upon demand any expenses of Lender attributable to Borrowers’ failure to have made the specified prepayment (including all internal and external attorneys’ fees and costs). No tender of a prepayment of the Loan that is made more than 30 days following the date specified in the Prepayment Notice shall be effective, and Lender shall not be obligated to accept such prepayment. Partial prepayments of the Loan shall not be permitted, except for partial prepayments resulting from Lender applying insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Loan or as otherwise specifically permitted in this Agreement, in which case, provided no Default or Event of Default exists, no Lockout Termination Fee shall be due.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.5(a), Borrowers may (subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.5(b)) prepay the Loan in full (or in part pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 2.11) , without the payment of the Lockout Termination Fee, after November 5, 2016 in connection with any refinancing provided under a program sponsored by HUD.
(d) From and after the Lockout Expiration Date, subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.5(b), Borrowers may prepay the Loan in full and without payment of the Lockout Termination Fee.
(e) If such acceleration is during any period when any Lockout Termination Fee is payable pursuant to the provisions of this Loan Agreement, then, in addition to all of the foregoing, the Lockout Termination Fee shall also then be immediately due and payable to the same end as though Borrowers were prepaying the entire Loan on the date of such acceleration.
2.6 | Reserved |
2.7 | Payment Account |
(a) Borrowers shall cause all rents and other amounts due and payable under each Operating Lease to be paid directly to a noninterest-bearing account or accounts in each Borrower’s name with Lender (collectively, the “Payment Accounts”; individually, a “Payment Account”). Borrowers shall (i) notify each Operator that all rents and other amounts due and payable under each Operating Lease must be wired or deposited directly into the applicable Payment Account and (ii) receive in trust for the benefit of Lender and deposit or cause to be deposited into the applicable Payment Account, immediately upon receipt, any and all rents or other amounts received by Borrowers.
(b) Provided no Event of Default has occurred or would result from withdrawal of funds, Borrowers shall be entitled to withdraw funds from the Payment Accounts.
4 |
(c) If an Event of Default exists, Borrowers shall have no right to withdraw funds from the Payment Accounts and Lender shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion to hold such funds as additional collateral or to apply such amounts to amounts due under this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including principal, interest and reserves) in such order and manner as Lender determines.
(d) If an Event of Default has occurred but is subsequently waived by Lender, Borrowers shall have no right to withdraw funds from the Payment Accounts and Lender shall thereafter have the right, on each Payment Date, and on any other Business Day as Lender deems appropriate to apply all funds paid directly to Lender or deposited into the Payment Accounts to amounts due under this Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including principal, interest and reserves) in such order and manner as Lender determines. If, after payment of all Obligations due and payable, and the deposit of all Reserves, in each case in collected funds, a credit balance exists with respect to the funds paid directly to Lender or within the Payment Account on a Payment Date, then upon written request from Borrowers, so long as no unwaived Default or Event of Default then exists and is continuing, such credit balance shall be released to Borrowers.
2.8 | Promise to Pay; Manner of Payment |
Borrowers absolutely and unconditionally promise to pay principal, interest and all other amounts payable under this Loan Agreement, or under any other Loan Document, without any right of rescission and without any deduction, including any deduction for any setoff, counterclaim or recoupment. All payments made by Borrowers shall be made by wire transfer on the date when due, without offset or counterclaim, in U.S. Dollars, in immediately available funds to such account as may be indicated in writing by Lender to Borrowers from time to time. Any payment received after 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the date when due shall be deemed received on the following Business Day. Whenever any payment under this Loan Agreement is due or becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date of such payment shall be extended to, and such payment shall be made on, the next Business Day, and such extension of time in such case shall be included in the computation of payment of any interest (at the interest rate then in effect during such extension) and/or fees, as the case may be.
2.9 | Unavailability of LIBOR. |
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Loan Agreement, (i) if at any time, any applicable Change in Law makes it unlawful for Lender to make or maintain the indebtedness evidenced by the Loan in eurodollars or (ii) if at the time of or prior to any determination of the Applicable Interest Rate, Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market generally, (A) deposits in United States Dollars in the relevant amounts and of the relevant maturity are unavailable to Lender in the London interbank market, (B) the Applicable Interest Rate does not adequately or fairly reflect the cost to Lender of making or maintaining the Loan due to changes in administrative costs, fees, tariffs or taxes or other matters outside of Lender’s reasonable control or (C) adequate and fair means do not or will not exist for determining the Applicable Interest Rate, then Lender shall promptly notify Borrowers, and the Loan shall bear interest, and continue to bear interest until Lender determines that the applicable circumstance described in the foregoing clauses (A), (B) or (C) no longer pertains, at a fluctuating rate per annum based on a substitute index selected by Lender plus a suitable margin to approximate, in Lender’s judgment, the return that Lender would have received if the circumstance had not occurred.
5 |
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Loan Agreement, if:
(i) | the circumstances described in Section 2.9(a) occur; or |
(ii) | Borrowers fail to make a prepayment of the Loan as permitted under this Loan Agreement that Borrowers had notified Lender in writing Borrowers would make; |
and the result is to increase the cost to Lender of maintaining the Loan or to reduce any amount receivable by Lender under this Loan Agreement or to cause Lender to incur any other cost, loss or expense, including any interest or fees that are payable by Lender to lenders of funds actually obtained by Lender, then Borrowers shall pay to Lender, on the second Business Day following Lender’s demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such cost, loss, expense or reduced amount receivable. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.9(b), Lender shall promptly notify Borrowers of the event by reason of which Lender has become so entitled and shall certify in reasonable detail any additional amounts so payable. Such certification submitted by Lender to Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
2.10 | Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy |
(a) If any Change in Law shall:
(i) | impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Applicable Interest Rate); or |
(ii) | impose on Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Loan Agreement or the Loan; |
and such Change in Law increases the cost to Lender of making or maintaining the Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make the Loan) or reduces the amount of any sum received or receivable by Lender under this Loan Agreement (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then Borrowers shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) If Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital or on the capital of Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Loan Agreement or the Loan made by Lender to a level below that which Lender or Lender’s holding company, as applicable, could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration Lender’s policies and the policies of Lender’s holding company, as applicable, with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrowers shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender’s holding company, as applicable, for any such reduction suffered.
6 |
(c) A certificate of Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate Lender or Lender’s holding company, under Sections 2.10(a) or 2.10(b) and evidence of the Change in Law, shall be delivered to Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Subject to Section 2.10(f), Borrowers shall pay Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt.
(d) Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall not waive Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate Lender under this Section 2.10 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date Lender notifies Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of Lender’s intention to claim compensation for such increased costs or reduction; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then such 180-day period will be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Loan Agreement, the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith shall be deemed to be a Change in Law and/or a change in capital adequacy requirements, as applicable, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Loan Agreement, if any Change in Law affects Lender and results in Borrowers having to pay additional amounts to Lender to compensate Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered, Borrowers shall have the right to prepay the Loan pursuant to Section 2.5 (without the obligation to pay the Lockout Termination Fee, even if such prepayment is made prior to the Lockout Expiration Date). Such payment shall be made upon not more than 150 days’ notice on the Payment Date specified in any Prepayment Notice given to Lender. If Borrowers fail to make the prepayment on the Prepayment Date specified in the Prepayment Notice, Borrowers shall pay to Lender: (i) interest at the Default Interest Rate from the scheduled date of prepayment through the later to occur of the next occurring scheduled Payment Date or the date when the Loan is prepaid, (ii) such additional amounts to compensate Lender for the additional costs incurred or reduction suffered from the Change in Law from inception through the date of prepayment of the Loan; and (iii) such additional expenses of Lender, if any, attributable to such prepayment (and for avoidance of doubt, such reimbursement of additional expenses shall specifically exclude any special or punitive damages).
7 |
2.11 | Partial Releases. |
(a) General Provisions. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, the Note, the Security Instruments or any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, upon the request of Borrowers, after the Lockout Expiration Date (or after November 5, 2016 in connection with the refinance any of the Facilities under a program sponsored by HUD, so long as Borrowers satisfy the other applicable requirements of this Section 2.11), Lender agrees to release up to two (2) Facilities (each, a “Partial Release Project”) from the lien of the related Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents, provided that Lender determines all of the following terms and conditions are satisfied (such release herein called a “Partial Release”):
(i) After giving effect to a Partial Release and payment of the Partial Release Price there shall be at least two (2) Facilities (and with at least sixty (60) residential units) remaining as security for the Loan.
(ii) No Default shall exist and no Event of Default or Material Adverse Change has occurred, and Borrowers shall certify in writing to the Lender that no Default, Event of Default or Material Adverse Change shall exist immediately after giving effect to the applicable Partial Release and the execution and delivery of all documents connected therewith.
(iii) Borrowers shall deliver, together with such request for the Partial Release, a pro forma compliance certificate in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion showing that, on a pro forma basis, after giving effect to such Partial Release, the Leverage Ratio and Rent Coverage Ratio will be equal to or greater than the Leverage Ratio and Rent Coverage Ratio immediately prior to such Partial Release.
(iv) Borrowers shall provide written notice to Lender of their desire to have the applicable Partial Release Project released as security for the Loan, and provide Lender with all information (including any purchase and sale agreement and proposed partial release forms) and documents relating to such release at least thirty (30) days prior to the closing of the sale or refinancing of the Partial Release Project and such partial release forms must be reasonably satisfactory to Lender in form and substance in its sole discretion.
(v) Such release will not affect the priority of lien or liens on the remainder of the Property, or Lenders’ rights in and to the remainder of the Property.
(vi) Borrowers shall pay all reasonable expenses of Lender, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and internal fees of in-house counsel, title insurance premiums, recording costs and similar costs in connection with the Partial Release.
(vii) Borrowers shall have paid to Lender a release price to be applied against the outstanding principle balance of the Loan in the following amount for each of the designated Facilities below:

(x) the Facility being released shall be transferred to a third-party that is not controlled by, or under common control with, any Loan Party pursuant to a bona-fide third party sale; provided, however, that this subparagraph (x) shall not apply in the event Borrowers refinance any of the Facilities under a program sponsored by HUD, so long as Borrowers satisfy the other applicable requirements of this Section 2.11;
(xi) the purchase agreement and all other documents relating to such sale are satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion;
(xii) In no event may Xxxxx Vista Manor or Xxxxx Vista Gardens be released unless both of such Facilities are being released concurrently pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof;
(xiii) the Leverage Ratio as of the end of the last Test Period would not have exceeded 9.00 to 1.00 if the Facility being released had not been included in calculation of the Leverage Ratio; and
(xiv) the Rent Coverage Ratio as of the end of the last Test Period would have been greater than 1.15 to 1.00 if the Facility being released had not been included in calculation of the Rent Coverage Ratio.

In partial consideration of Lender’s agreement to make the Loan, Borrowers shall pay to Lender at Closing a nonrefundable commitment fee equal to one-half percent (0.50%) of the Loan Amount (the “Commitment Fee”).
3.2 | Lawful Limits |
In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise, will the interest and other fees and charges paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of money under this Loan Agreement exceed the maximum rate permissible under applicable law that a court of competent jurisdiction, in a final determination, deems applicable to this Loan Agreement. If, due to any circumstance, fulfillment of any provision of this Loan Agreement, at the time performance of such provision will be due, will exceed any such limit, then the obligation to be so fulfilled shall be reduced to such lawful limit, and, if Lender shall have received interest or any other charges of any kind that might be deemed to be interest under applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful rate, then such excess shall be applied first to any unpaid fees and charges under this Loan Agreement (which do not exceed such limit), then to the unpaid principal balance under this Loan Agreement, and if the then-remaining excess interest is greater than the unpaid principal balance, Lender shall promptly refund such excess amount to Borrowers and this Loan Agreement shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific contingency, exceeds the highest lawful rate, Borrowers and Lender will, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects of such voluntary prepayments, and (c) “spread” the total amount of interest throughout the entire term of the Loan so that the interest rate does not exceed the highest lawful rate of interest. The terms and provisions of this Section 3.2 shall control to the extent any other provision of any Loan Document is inconsistent with this Section 3.2.
3.3 | CapEx Reserve |
(a) Borrowers shall establish and maintain at all times until indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations a reserve funded by Borrowers and held by Lender for payment of costs and expenses associated with Capital Improvements (the “CapEx Reserve”).
(b) On each Payment Date, Borrowers shall deliver to Lender, in addition to the monthly payments due under this Loan Agreement, an amount equal to $33.34 for each residential unit at each of the Facilities (the “CapEx Reserve Payment”) to be deposited into the CapEx Reserve. If at any time Lender notifies Borrowers in writing that Lender has good faith grounds to believe that amounts on deposit in the CapEx Reserve may be inadequate to cover Capital Improvements anticipated in good faith by Lender to be necessary, the CapEx Reserve Payment shall be increased to the amount specified by Lender in such notice, and Borrowers shall deliver to Lender such increased CapEx Reserve Payment on each Payment Date occurring after the date that is 30 days after the date of such notice.
10 |
(c) So long as no Default has occurred and is continuing and no Event of Default has occurred, Lender will disburse to Borrowers from the CapEx Reserve (but in no event to exceed amounts on deposit in the CapEx Reserve) within 10 days after Borrowers’ written request (and provision to Lender of any supporting documentation required by Lender), the costs and expenses of installing or constructing any Capital Improvement, provided such written notice includes a detailed description of the Capital Improvements installed or constructed together with (i) a certification by Borrowers (or the Operators) that the Capital Improvements have been completed in accordance with applicable legal requirements, and (ii) such additional supporting evidence as may be requested by Lender in its judgment, including such items as invoices, receipts or other evidence verifying the cost of the Capital Improvements, affidavits and/or lien waivers from those providing work or supplies, a certification from an inspecting architect or other third party acceptable to Lender describing the completed Capital Improvements and verifying their completion and value, and evidence that all necessary or required approvals or consents from Governmental Authorities have been obtained. Lender shall not be required to make disbursements from the CapEx Reserve more than once in any 30-day period. In making any disbursement from the CapEx Reserve, Lender shall be entitled to rely on Borrowers’ written request and supporting documentation without any inquiry into the accuracy, validity or contestability of any such amount or the nature or necessity of the materials provided or the work performed.
(d) Lender may, at any time and from time to time, at Borrowers’ expense, make or cause to be made inspections of any Facility. If any inspection report from any such inspection recommends that Capital Improvements are required, Lender may provide Borrowers with a written description of such Capital Improvements and Borrowers shall complete those Capital Improvements to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender within 90 days after the receipt of such description from Lender.
3.4 | Tax and Insurance Reserve |
(a) Borrowers shall establish and maintain at all times until indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations a reserve funded by Borrowers and held by Lender for payment of real estate taxes and assessments and insurance premiums on the Property (the “Tax and Insurance Reserve”).
(b) As of the Closing Date, Borrowers have deposited with Lender $22,550 for purposes of real estate taxes and assessments, and $3,710 for purposes of insurance premiums to be held in the Tax and Insurance Reserve. On each Payment Date, Borrowers shall deliver to Lender, in addition to the monthly payments due under this Loan Agreement, an amount determined by Lender to be sufficient (when added to the monthly deposits described in this Section 3.4) to pay the next due annual installment of real estate taxes and assessments on the Property at least one month prior to the delinquency date of such real estate taxes and assessments (if paid in one installment) and the next due annual insurance premiums with respect to the Property at least one month prior to the due date of such insurance premiums (the “Tax and Insurance Reserve Payment”); provided, at all times, the amount on deposit in the Tax and Insurance Reserve shall not be less than the amount determined by Lender to be sufficient.
11 |
(c) Borrowers shall pay, on or prior to the applicable due date, all real estate taxes and assessments and insurance premiums required to be paid by Borrowers under this Loan Agreement, and so long as no Event of Default has occurred, Lender shall reimburse Borrowers (to the extent of available funds in the Tax and Insurance Reserve, subject to the proviso in Section 3.4(b)) for the payment of such real estate taxes and assessments and insurance premiums within 30 days after the receipt by Lender from Borrowers of paid receipts.
(d) Lender, at any time upon notice to Borrowers, may elect (but shall have no obligation), but shall, at the request of Borrowers for so long as no Event of Default has occurred, pay real estate taxes and assessments and insurance premiums from the Tax and Insurance Reserve in accordance with this Section 3.4. If Lender makes such election, so long as no Event of Default has occurred, all sums in the Tax and Insurance Reserve will be held by Lender in the Tax and Insurance Reserve to pay such real estate taxes and assessments and insurance premiums in one installment before the sums become delinquent. If Lender makes such election, Borrowers shall be responsible for ensuring the receipt by Lender, at least 30 days prior to the respective due date for the payment thereof, of all bills, invoices and statements for all real estate taxes and assessments and insurance premiums to be paid from the Tax and Insurance Reserve, and so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing and no Event of Default has occurred, Lender shall pay the Governmental Authority or other party entitled thereto directly to the extent funds are available for such purpose in the Tax and Insurance Reserve. In making any payment from the Tax and Insurance Reserve, Lender will be entitled to rely on any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or insurance company or agent without any inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate and without any inquiry into the accuracy, validity, enforceability or contestability of any tax, assessment, valuation, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. If, at any time, Lender determines the Tax and Insurance Reserve does not contain sufficient funds to pay the real estate taxes and assessments and insurance premiums when the same become due and payable, Borrowers shall, within 10 days after receipt of written notice thereof, deposit with Lender the full amount of any such deficiency.
3.5 | Debt Service Reserve |
(a) Borrowers shall establish and maintain at all times until indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations a reserve funded by Borrowers and held by Lender for the potential payment of debt service (the “Debt Service Reserve”).
(b) Subject to Section 3.5(e), Borrowers shall deposit with Lender $160,000 to be held in the Debt Service Reserve. It is the parties’ intention that at all times until indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations the Debt Service Reserve must hold funds sufficient to satisfy two months of debt service under the Loan, and upon written demand from Lender, Borrowers shall deposit additional amounts into the Debt Service Reserve to maintain the Debt Service Reserve at such level.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, Lender may apply (but shall have no obligation to apply) amounts held in the Debt Service Reserve to the Obligations at such times and in such amounts as Lender may from time to time determine in its sole discretion.
12 |
(d) Borrowers understand and agree that, notwithstanding the establishment of the Debt Service Reserve, all proceeds of the Loan have been and shall be considered fully disbursed and shall bear interest and be payable on the terms provided in this Loan Agreement.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.5, if Borrowers deposit into an account designated by Lender (the “Deposit Account”) the entire amount of the “Lease Deposit” (as defined in each Operating Lease) payable under the Operating Leases, and at least $300,000 remains on deposit in the Deposit Account, Borrowers shall not be required to deposit the Debt Service Reserve with Lender. If no Event of Default exists, Borrowers may withdraw funds from the Deposit Account but only if Borrowers make the deposit otherwise required under Section 3.5(b).
3.6 | Repair and Remediation |
(a) Prior to the execution of this Loan Agreement, Lender has caused the Property to be inspected and such inspection has revealed that the Property is in need of certain maintenance, repairs and/or remedial or corrective work, as more particularly described in those certain property condition reports (collectively, the “PCRs”) dated September 4, 2015 and prepared by Metropolitan Solutions (the “Required Work”). Borrowers acknowledge that they have received and reviewed the PCRs.
(b) [omitted]
(c) Borrowers shall cause the Required Work to be completed, performed, remediated and corrected to the satisfaction of Lender and as necessary to bring the Property into compliance with all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations on or before the date that is ninety (90) days from the date of this Loan Agreement, as such time period may be extended in writing by Lender in its sole discretion.
3.7 | Additional Provisions Relating to Reserves and Other Accounts |
(a) Without limitation on the other terms and conditions contained in this Loan Agreement, Borrowers authorize and consent to the accounts into which the Reserves have been (or will be) deposited being held in Lender’s name or the name of any entity servicing the Loan for Lender and agrees that Lender, or at Lender’s election, its servicing agent, shall have exclusive control over such accounts. Notice of the assignment and security interest granted to Lender in this Loan Agreement may be delivered by Lender at any time to the financial institution where the Reserves have been established, and Lender, or such servicing entity, shall have possession of all passbooks or other evidences of such accounts. Borrowers hereby indemnify and hold Lender harmless with respect to all risk of loss regarding amounts on deposit in the Reserves, except to the extent that any such loss is caused by the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Lender. Borrowers knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally stipulate, acknowledge and agree that the advancement of the funds from the Reserves as set forth in this Loan Agreement is at Borrowers’ direction and is not the exercise by Lender of any right of set-off or other remedy upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may, without notice or demand on Borrowers, at its option: (A) withdraw any or all of the funds (including interest) then remaining in the Reserves and apply the same, after deducting all costs and expenses of safekeeping, collection and delivery (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) to the Obligations in such manner as Lender shall deem appropriate in its sole discretion, (B) exercise any and all rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable Uniform Commercial Code, or (C) exercise any other remedies available at law or in equity. The application of the funds contained in the Reserves shall be deemed to cure any Default or Event of Default.
13 |
(b) The Reserves are solely for the protection of Lender and entail no responsibility on Lender’s part beyond the payment of the respective costs and expenses in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement and beyond the allowing of due credit for the sums actually received. Upon assignment of the Security Instruments by Lender, any funds in the Reserves shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Lender, as assignor, with respect to any funds in the Reserve shall terminate. The Reserves shall not, unless otherwise explicitly required by applicable law, be or be deemed to be escrow or trust funds, but, at Lender’s option and in Lender’s discretion, may either be held in a separate account or be commingled by Lender with the general funds of Lender. Upon full payment of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement or at such earlier time as Lender may elect, the balance in the Reserves then in Lender’s possession shall be paid to Borrowers and no other party shall have any right or claim to the Reserves. Any amounts received by Lender from Borrowers may be invested by Lender (or its servicer) for Lender’s benefit, and Lender shall not be obligated to pay, or credit, any interest earned thereon to Borrowers.
(c) To the extent funds are held in the Payment Account or the Deposit Account or are otherwise held by Lender, Lender shall not be obligated to pay, or credit, any interest earned on any Reserves to Borrowers.
(d) After indefeasible payment in full of all Obligations and release by Lender of the liens of the Security Instruments, Lender shall disburse to Borrowers all amounts remaining in the Reserves.
IV. | SECURITY |
4.1 | General Security Obligations |
The Obligations are to be secured by Liens granted under this Loan Agreement and pursuant to the Security Documents. At the Closing or at any other time within 60 days of Lender’s request, Borrowers shall establish deposit account control agreements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, over any and all Accounts of Borrowers, including any Accounts established after the Closing Date.
4.2 | Grant of Security Interest |
To secure the payment and performance of the Obligations, each of the Borrowers hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in and lien upon, and pledges to Lender, all of its right, title and interest in and to all personal property of Borrowers, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, including the following:
14 |
(a) all tangible personal property, including all present and future “Inventory” and “Equipment” (as defined in the UCC) (including items of equipment that are or become Fixtures);
(b) all sums on deposit or due under the Loan Documents including (i) the Payment Account, the CapEx Reserve, the Deposit Account, the Tax and Insurance Reserve, and the Debt Service Reserve (collectively, the “Reserves”), (ii) the accounts into which the Reserves have been deposited, (iii) all insurance on such accounts, (iv) all accounts, contract rights and general intangibles or other rights and interests pertaining to the Reserves, (v) all sums in the Reserves or represented by the Reserves, (vi) all instruments and documents now or hereafter evidencing the Reserves or such accounts, and (vii) all powers, options, rights, privileges and immunities pertaining to the Reserves (including the right to make withdrawals from the Reserves);
(c) all intangible personal property, including all present and future Accounts (including the Payment Account), contract rights, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper, Documents, Instruments, Deposit Accounts, Investment Property, Letter of Credit Rights, Supporting Obligations (as such terms are defined in Appendix B or in the UCC), rights to the payment of money or other forms of consideration of any kind, tax refunds, insurance proceeds, now owned or hereafter acquired, and all intangible and tangible personal property relating to or arising out of any of the foregoing;
(d) all Government Contracts and rights under such Government Contracts and the related Government Accounts; but Lender shall not have a security interest in any rights under any Government Contract of Borrowers or in the related Government Account where the taking of such security interest would violate an express prohibition contained in the Government Contract (for purposes of this limitation, the fact that a Government Contract is subject to, or otherwise refers to, Title 31, § 203 or Title 41, § 15 of the United States Code shall not be deemed an express prohibition against assignment thereof) or is prohibited by applicable law, unless in any case consent is otherwise validly obtained; and
(e) any and all additions and accessions to any of the foregoing, and any and all replacements, substitutions, products and proceeds (including insurance proceeds) of any of the foregoing.
Each Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to file Uniform Commercial Code financing statements in such jurisdiction and with such filing offices as Lender, in its sole discretion, believes is necessary or desirable to perfect the foregoing security interest of the Lender without need of any signature of any Borrower. Any such financing statements may indicate and/or describe the collateral as “all assets of the debtor, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising”, “all personal property of the debtor, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising” or words of similar effect and/or meaning.
V. | REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES |
Borrowers represent and warrant to Lender as of the Closing Date:
15 |
5.1 | Organization and Authority; Investment Company |

5.2 | Loan Documents |
The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, (i) have been duly authorized by all requisite action of each Loan Party and have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of each Loan Party; (ii) do not violate any provisions of (A) applicable laws, (B) any order of any Governmental Authority binding on any Loan Party or any of their respective properties, or (C) the applicable governing agreement or document of any Loan Party, or any agreement between any Loan Party and its stockholders, members, partners or equity owners or among any such stockholders, members, partners or equity owners; (iii) are not in conflict with, and do not result in (A) a Default or Event of Default or (B) an event, fact, condition or circumstance that, with notice or passage of time, or both, could constitute or result in a conflict, breach, default or event of default under, any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which any Loan Party is a party, or by which the properties or assets of any Loan Party are bound, the effect of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or could reasonably be expected to cause a Liability Event; (iv) except as set forth in the Loan Documents for the benefit of Lender, will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien of any nature upon any of the properties or assets of any Loan Party, and (v) do not require the consent, approval or authorization of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person except as has been obtained or filed and which is set forth on Schedule 5.2. Each of the Loan Documents to which each Loan Party is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each applicable Loan Party, enforceable against each applicable Loan Party in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of bankruptcy, moratorium, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights generally and to the effect of general principles of equity that may limit the availability of equitable remedies (whether in a proceeding at law or in equity).
16 |
5.3 | Subsidiaries, Capitalization and Ownership Interests |
The organizational chart attached as Schedule 5.3A is true, correct, complete and not misleading in any respect. Without limitation, no Loan Party has any Subsidiaries except as set forth on such organizational chart. The authorized and issued capitalization (or, as applicable, the outstanding membership and economic interests) of each Loan Party, the number and class of equity securities and/or ownership, voting or partnership interests issued and outstanding of each Loan Party and the record and beneficial owners thereof (including options, warrants and other rights to acquire any of the foregoing) are set forth on Schedule 5.3(B). The membership or partnership interests of each Loan Party that is a limited partnership or a limited liability company are not certificated, the documents relating to such membership or partnership interests do not expressly state that such interests are governed by Article 8 of the UCC, and no such membership or partnership interests are held in a securities account. The outstanding equity securities and/or ownership, voting, membership, economic or partnership interests of each Loan Party have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable, and each Person listed on Schedule 5.3(B) owns beneficially and of record all the equity securities and/or ownership, voting, membership or economic interests it is listed as owning. Schedule 5.3B also lists the directors, members, managers and/or partners of each Loan Party. Except as listed on Schedule 5.3B, no Loan Party owns an interest or participates or engages in any joint venture, partnership or similar arrangements with any Person. Schedule 5.3C lists (a) each Pledging Entity, each of whom is executing a Pledge and Security Agreement at the Closing, and (b) each other owner of a direct or indirect interest in each Borrower.
5.4 | Property Matters |
(a) Borrowers have good, marketable and indefeasible fee simple title to the Real Estate and marketable title to the balance of the Property, subject only to those matters expressly set forth on the Title Policy (the “Permitted Exceptions”), and have full power and lawful authority to grant, bargain, sell, convey, assign, transfer and encumber its interest in the Property in the manner and form done or intended pursuant to this Loan Agreement or to any other Loan Document. None of the Permitted Exceptions materially interfere with the security intended to be provided by any of the Security Instruments, the current primary use of the Real Estate or the current ability of the Property to generate income sufficient to service the Loan. Each Borrower shall preserve its interest in and title to the Property and will forever warrant and defend the same to Lender against any and all claims whatsoever and will forever warrant and defend the validity and priority of the liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents against the claims of all Persons, subject to the Permitted Exceptions. This warranty of title and the obligations under this paragraph will survive the foreclosure, exercise of any power of sale or other enforcement of the Security Instrument and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Lender if Lender acquires title to the Property pursuant to any foreclosure, exercise of any power of sale or otherwise.
(b) To Borrowers’ Knowledge, and except as disclosed in any zoning report or property condition report delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date, the Real Estate and its intended use comply with all applicable laws and regulations. Each parcel of Land constitutes a separate tax parcel for purposes of ad valorem taxation. Borrowers have received no notice (and have no knowledge) that the Real Estate requires any rights over, or restrictions against, other property to comply with applicable laws or to be used for its intended purpose. Each Facility is taxed separately without regard to any other real estate and constitutes a legally subdivided lot under all applicable legal requirements (or, if not subdivided, no subdivision or platting of any Facility is required under applicable legal requirements), and for all purposes may be mortgaged, conveyed, pledged, hypothecated, assigned or otherwise dealt with as an independent parcel;
17 |
(c) All utility services necessary and sufficient for the full use, occupancy, operation and disposition of the Real Estate for its intended purposes are in place, including water, storm sewer, sanitary sewer, gas, electric, cable and telephone facilities, through public rights-of-way or private easements reflected in the Title Insurance Policy;

(f) Except as disclosed in any real property survey delivered or made available to Lender prior to the Closing Date, no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Land. To Borrowers’ Knowledge, each Facility is structurally sound, in good repair and free of defects in materials and workmanship and has been constructed and installed in substantial compliance with the plans and specifications relating to the Facilities. To the knowledge of Borrowers, all major building systems located within the Improvements, including the heating and air conditioning systems and the electrical and plumbing systems, are in good working order and condition;
(g) Except for the Operating Leases, there are no leases or subleases affecting any portion of the Property. The Operating Leases comply in all material respects with all applicable laws. There is a cumulative $353,199.95 security deposit held or required under the Operating Leases. Rent payments under each Operating Lease are due on a monthly basis and no rent payment any Operating Lease has been paid more than 30 days in advance. No rents or charges under any Operating Leases have been waived, released, or otherwise discharged or compromised. There are no outstanding options or rights of first offer or refusal to purchase all or any portion of the Property or Borrowers’ interest in the Property or any portion of the Property;
(h) No contract (including any Operating Lease), easement, right of way, permit or declaration (collectively, “Property Agreements”) provides any party with the right to obtain a lien or encumbrance upon all or any portion of the Property. Borrowers have delivered to Lender true, correct and complete copies of all Property Agreements and no default exists or would exist, with the passing of time or the giving of notice, or both, under any Property Agreement that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

18 |
(j) The Real Estate forms no part of any property owned, used or claimed by any Loan Party as a residence or business homestead and is not exempt from forced sale under the laws of the State in which the Real Estate is located.

The Loan is made and transacted solely for business, investment, commercial or other similar purposes; and
(k) The Real Estate is used only for the purpose set forth in Recital A of this Loan Agreement, and shall not be used for any other purpose whatsoever.
5.5 | Other Agreements |

No Loan Party is a party or subject to any agreement, document or instrument with respect to, or obligation to pay any, service or management fee with respect to, the ownership, operation, leasing or performance of any Facility other than the Operating Leases, nor is there any property manager with respect to any Facility (whether or not any of Borrowers is a party to such agreement or arrangement) other than pursuant to the Property Management Agreement.
5.6 | Litigation |
There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to Borrowers’ Knowledge, threatened against any Loan Party or pertaining to any Facility other than a suit against Guarantor disclosed on Schedule 5.6.

No Loan Party has received any notice that it is not in compliance with any of the requirements of any of the foregoing, except for items that could not reasonably be expected to have or result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(a) Borrowers shall give Lender prompt written notice of the occurrence of any casualty affecting, or the institution of any proceedings for eminent domain or for the condemnation of, the Property or any portion thereof (each, a “Casualty/Condemnation Event”). Borrowers assign all insurance proceeds on the Property and all causes of action, claims, compensation, awards and recoveries for any damage, condemnation or taking of all or any part of the Property or for any damage or injury to it for any loss or diminution in value of the Property. All such amounts will be paid to Lender. Lender may participate in any suits or proceedings relating to any such proceeds, causes of action, claims, compensation, awards or recoveries and Lender is authorized, in its own name or in Borrowers’ name, to adjust any loss covered by insurance or any condemnation claim or cause of action, and to settle or compromise any claim or cause of action in connection therewith, and Borrowers shall from time to time deliver to Lender any instruments required to permit such participation, but Lender will not have the right to participate in the adjustment of any loss less than $50,000. Provided no Event of Default has occurred, Lender shall apply any sums received by it under this Section 6.19 first to the payment of all of its costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred in obtaining those sums, and then, as follows:
(b) If Lender receives insurance proceeds or condemnation awards upon the occurrence of a Casualty/Condemnation Event in an amount not in excess of the lesser of (i) 5% of the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan and (ii) $250,000 (collectively, the “Threshold Amount”). Lender will, to the extent such insurance proceeds or condemnation awards are available for such purpose, disburse to Borrowers the amount paid or incurred by Borrowers as a result of any such Casualty/Condemnation Event for costs and expenses incurred by Borrowers to repair or restore the Property (collectively, the “Repairs”) pursuant to disbursement provisions as determined by Lender.
(c) If proceeds or awards from a Casualty/Condemnation Event exceed the Threshold Amount, Lender may elect, in Lender’s discretion and without regard to the adequacy of Lender’s security, to (i) accelerate the Maturity Date of the Loan and declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, provided, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, no termination fee shall be charged, and apply the remainder of such sums received pursuant to this Section to the payment of the Obligations in whatever order Lender directs in its discretion (which should be reasonable unless an Event of Default exists), with any remainder being paid to Borrowers, or (ii) make insurance or condemnation proceeds available to Borrowers for repair or restoration if Borrowers establish to the satisfaction of Lender, in its sole discretion, that Borrowers otherwise satisfy the requirements of Section 6.19(d). Should Lender make the election described immediately above in item (ii) of this Section 6.19(c), Borrowers shall be obligated to undertake restoration and repair of the damaged Improvements consistent with the provisions of this Section 6.19.
40 |
(d) If Lender elects to otherwise make the insurance proceeds or condemnation award available to Borrowers for repair or restoration pursuant to Section 6.19(c), then if:
(i) | the Property can, in Lender’s Permitted Discretion, with diligent restoration or repair, be returned to a condition at least equal to the condition thereof that existed prior to the casualty or partial taking causing the loss or damage by the earlier to occur of the following dates: (A) 6 months after the receipt of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards by either Borrowers or Lender, and (B) 6 months prior to the Maturity Date, and |
(ii) | all necessary governmental approvals can be obtained to allow the rebuilding and re-occupancy of the Property as described in Section 6.19(d)(i), and |
(iii) | there are sufficient sums available (through insurance proceeds or condemnation awards and contributions by Borrowers, the full amount of which shall at Lender’s option have been deposited with Lender) for such restoration or repair (including for any reasonable costs and expenses of Lender to be incurred in administering such restoration or repair) and for payment of principal and interest to become due and payable under this Loan Agreement during such restoration or repair, and |
(iv) | the economic feasibility of the Improvements after such restoration or repair will be such that income from their operation is reasonably anticipated to be sufficient to pay operating expenses of the Property and debt service on the Loan in full with the same coverage ratio considered by Lender in its determination to make the Loan; and |
(v) | Borrowers shall have delivered to Lender, at Borrowers’ sole cost and expense, an appraisal report from an appraiser, in form and substance, satisfactory to Lender appraising the value of the Property as proposed to be restored or repaired to be not less than an appraised value of the Property such that the outstanding principal amount of the Loan is not greater than 75% of such appraised value. |
41 |
then Lender shall, solely for the purposes of such restoration or repair, advance so much of the remainder of such sums as may be required to facilitate such restoration or repair, and any funds deposited by Borrowers for such restoration or repair to Borrowers in the manner and upon such terms and conditions as would be required by a prudent interim construction lender, including the prior written approval by Lender of plans and specifications, contractors and the form of construction contracts and the furnishing to Lender of permits, bonds, lien waivers, invoices, receipts and affidavits from contractors and subcontractors in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Lender shall apply any remaining proceeds for payment of the Obligations in whatever order as Lender directs, or released to Borrowers, in its discretion. Borrowers shall, in good faith, undertake reasonable efforts to cause the conditions described in this Section 6.19(d) to be fully satisfied (e.g., Borrowers shall timely make applications for necessary governmental permits, shall order an appropriate appraisal report, etc.). If such conditions are satisfied, Borrowers shall be obligated to undertake restoration and repair of the damaged Improvements subject to the terms of this Section 6.19.
Any disbursement pursuant to this Section 6.19(d) of sums by Lender shall, subject to Borrowers’ satisfaction of the provisions of this Section 6.19, be in a manner to promptly facilitate the restoration or repair of the Property. If Borrowers fail to meet the requirements of this Section 6.19(d), then Lender may elect in its discretion and without regard to the adequacy of Lender’s security, to accelerate the Maturity Date and declare any and all of the Obligations to be immediately due and payable and apply the remainder of such sums to the payment of the Obligations in whatever order Lender directs in its discretion, with any remainder being paid to Borrowers.
(e) Any reduction in the Obligations resulting from Lender’s application of any sums received by it under this Loan Agreement shall take effect only when Lender actually receives such sums and elects to apply such sums to the Obligations and, in any event, the unpaid portion of the Obligations shall remain in full force and effect and Borrowers shall not be excused in the payment thereof. Partial payments received by Lender, as described in the preceding sentence, shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations in whatever order Lender directs in its reasonable discretion, with any remainder being paid to Borrowers. If Borrowers undertake to restore or repair the Property after the occurrence of a casualty or partial taking of the Property as provided above, Borrowers shall promptly and diligently, at Borrowers’ sole cost and expense and regardless of whether the insurance proceeds or condemnation award, as appropriate, shall be sufficient for the purpose, restore, repair, replace and rebuild the Property as nearly as possible to their value, condition and character immediately prior to such casualty or partial taking in accordance with the foregoing provisions and Borrowers shall pay to Lender all costs and expenses of Lender incurred in administering such rebuilding, restoration or repair, provided that Lender makes such proceeds or award available for such purpose. Borrowers agrees to execute and deliver from time to time such further instruments as may be reasonably requested by Lender to confirm the foregoing assignment to Lender of any award, damage, insurance proceeds, payment or other compensation. Borrowers irrevocably constitute and appoint Lender the attorney-in-fact of Borrowers (which power of attorney shall be irrevocable so long as any of the Obligations are outstanding, shall be deemed coupled with an interest, shall survive the voluntary or involuntary dissolution of Borrowers and shall not be affected by any disability or incapacity suffered by Borrowers subsequent to the date of this Loan Agreement), with full power of substitution, subject to the terms of this Section, to settle for, collect and receive any such awards, damages, insurance proceeds, payments or other compensation from the parties or authorities making the same, to appear in and prosecute any proceedings therefor and to give receipts and acquittance therefor .

(b) Borrowers agree that notice received by it at least 15 days before the time of any intended public sale, or the time after that any private sale or other disposition of personal property collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition.

8.3 | Advances to Protect Property |
Without limiting or waiving any other rights and remedies of Lender under this Loan Agreement, if an Event of Default has occurred, then Lender may, at its option, with or without notice to Borrowers, make any appearances, disburse or advance any sums and take any actions as may be necessary or desirable to protect or enforce the security of the Security Documents or to remedy the failure of Borrowers to perform their agreements (without, however, waiving any Default or Event of Default).

Borrowers agree to pay within five (5) Business Days of demand all expenses of Lender reasonably incurred with respect to the foregoing (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel), together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from and after the date on which Lender incurs such expenses until reimbursement thereof by Borrowers. Any expenses so incurred by Lender, together with interest thereon as provided above, shall be additional indebtedness of any of Borrowers secured by the Security Documents and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the Obligations. The necessity for any such actions and of the amounts to be paid shall be determined by Lender in its discretion. Lender is empowered to enter and to authorize others to enter upon the Property or any part thereof for the purpose of performing or observing any such defaulted term, covenant or condition without becoming liable to any of Borrowers or any person in possession holding under any of Borrowers. The remedies set forth in this Section 8.4 shall be exercisable by Lender, and any and all payments made or costs or expenses incurred by Lender in connection therewith shall be secured by the Security Documents and shall, without demand, be immediately repaid by Borrowers with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate, notwithstanding the fact that such remedies were exercised and such payments made and costs incurred by Lender after the filing by any Loan Party of a voluntary case or the filing against any of Borrowers of an involuntary case pursuant to or within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended (the “Act”), Title 11 U.S.C., or after any similar action pursuant to any other Debtor Relief Law (whether statutory, common law, case law or otherwise) of any jurisdiction whatsoever, now or hereafter in effect, which may be or become applicable to any Loan Party, Lender, any guarantor or indemnitor, the obligations or any of the Loan Documents. This indemnity shall survive payment in full of the Obligations. This Section 8.4 shall not be construed to require Lender to incur any expenses, make any appearances or take any actions.

In each such case, Borrowers waive the right to dispute Lender’s action based upon such request or other communication, absent manifest error.
57 |
10.2 | Delay; No Waiver of Defaults |
No course of action or dealing, renewal, release or extension of any provision of any Loan Document, or single or partial exercise of any such provision, or delay, failure or omission on Lender’s part in enforcing any such provision shall affect the liability of any Loan Party or operate as a waiver of such provision or preclude any other or further exercise of such provision.

(b) If any such claim or cause of action is brought or filed in any United States federal court sitting in the State of California or in any state court of the State of California, and the waiver of jury trial set forth in Section 10.3(a) is determined or held to be ineffective or unenforceable, the parties agree that all claims and causes of action shall be resolved by reference to a private judge sitting without a jury, pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638, before a mutually acceptable referee or, if the parties cannot agree, a referee selected by the Presiding Judge of the Los Angeles County, California. Such proceeding shall be conducted in Los Angeles County, California, with California rules of evidence and discovery applicable to such proceeding. If Claims or causes of action are to be resolved by judicial reference, any party may seek from any court having jurisdiction over such Claims or causes of action any prejudgment order, writ or other relief and have such prejudgment order, writ or other relief enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law notwithstanding that all claims and causes of action are otherwise subject to resolution by judicial reference.

Any payments with respect to the Obligations received shall be credited and applied in such manner and order as Lender shall decide in its sole discretion.
61 |
12.4 | Indemnity |
Each Borrower jointly and severally shall indemnify Lender, its Affiliates and its and their respective managers, members, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents, representatives, successors, assigns, accountants and attorneys (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, allocable costs of in-house counsel, and in-house diligence fees and expenses) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person with respect to or arising out of, or in any litigation, proceeding or investigation instituted or conducted by any Person with respect to any aspect of, or any transaction contemplated by or referred to in, or any matter related to, any Loan Document or any agreement, document or transaction contemplated by any Loan Document, whether or not such Indemnified Person is a party to such agreement, document or transaction, except to the extent that any of the foregoing results directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person as determined by a final non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction. If any Indemnified Person uses in-house counsel for any purpose for which any Loan Party is responsible to pay or indemnify, each Loan Party expressly agrees that its indemnification obligations include reasonable charges for the costs allocable for such work of such in-house counsel. Lender agrees to give Borrowers reasonable notice of any event of which Lender becomes aware for which indemnification may be required under this Section 12.4, and Lender may elect (but is not obligated) to direct the defense of such event, provided that the selection of counsel shall be subject to Borrowers’ consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any Indemnified Person may, in its discretion, take such actions as it deems necessary and appropriate to investigate, defend or settle any event or take other remedial or corrective actions with respect to such event as may be necessary for the protection of such Indemnified Person or the Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any insurer agrees to undertake the defense of an event (an “Insured Event”), Lender agrees not to exercise its right to select counsel to defend the event if that would cause any Loan Party’s insurer to deny coverage; provided, however, that Lender reserves the right to retain counsel to represent any Indemnified Person with respect to an Insured Event at its sole cost and expense. To the extent that Lender obtains recovery from a third party other than an Indemnified Person of any of the amounts that any Loan Party has paid to Lender pursuant to the indemnity set forth in this Section 12.4, then Lender shall promptly pay to such Loan Party the amount of such recovery.

(c) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event any other Borrowers shall make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation.

The provisions of this Section 12.13 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of Borrowers or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 12.13 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

(b) In addition, Borrowers shall pay to the relevant Governmental Authority any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made under this Loan Agreement or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document (collectively, “Other Taxes”).
68 |
(c) Subject to Section 12.15(f), Borrowers shall indemnify and hold harmless Lender for the full amount of any and all Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 12.15) paid or payable by Lender and any liability (other than any penalties, interest, additions, and expenses that accrue both after the 180th) day after the receipt by Lender of written notice of the assertion of such Taxes or Other Taxes and before the date that Lender provides Borrowers with a certificate relating to such Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to Section 12.15(i) arising therefrom or with respect to such Taxes or Other Taxes, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Payments under this indemnification shall be made within 10 days from the date Lender makes written demand therefor.
(d) If Borrowers shall be required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Loan Agreement to Lender, then, subject to Section 12.15(f):
(i) | the sum payable shall be increased to the extent necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 12.15), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made; |
(ii) | Borrowers shall make such deductions; and |
(iii) | Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. |
(e) Within 10 days after the date of any payment by Borrowers of Taxes or Other Taxes to a Governmental Authority, Borrowers shall furnish to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to Lender.
(f) Borrowers shall not be required to pay any additional amounts in respect of United States Federal income tax pursuant to Section 12.15(d) to Lender or to indemnify Lender pursuant to Section 12.15(c) to the extent that (i) the obligation to withhold amounts with respect to United States Federal income tax existed on the date Lender became a party to this Loan Agreement or, with respect to payments to a lending office newly designated by Lender (a “New Lending Office”), the date Lender designated such New Lending Office with respect to the applicable Loan; provided, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply to the extent the additional amounts Lender (or any assignee of Lender) through a New Lending Office, would be entitled to receive (without regard to this clause (i)) do not exceed the additional amounts that the Person making the transfer, or Lender (or such assignee) making the designation of such New Lending Office, would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such transfer or designation; or (ii) the Internal Revenue Service has determined (which determination shall be final and non-appealable) that Lender is treated as a “conduit entity” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.881-3 or any successor provision; provided, however, nothing contained in this clause (ii) shall preclude the payment of additional amounts or indemnity payments by Borrower to the person for whom the “conduit entity” is acting.
69 |
(g) If Borrowers are required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of Lender pursuant to this Section 12.15, then Lender shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by Borrowers or to designate a lending office from a different jurisdiction (if such a lending office exists) so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payments by Borrowers that may accrue in the future if such filing or changes, in the Permitted Discretion of Lender, would not require Lender to disclose information Lender deems confidential and is not otherwise disadvantageous to Lender.
(h) If Lender, in its Permitted Discretion, receives a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrowers or with respect to which Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 12.15, it shall promptly pay to Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrowers under this Section 12.15 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund) and any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund, provided, that Borrowers, upon the request of Lender, shall repay the amount paid over to Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Lender if Lender is required to repay the applicable refund to such Governmental Authority.
(i) Lender, if claiming reimbursement or compensation pursuant to this Section 12.15, shall deliver to Borrowers a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to Lender under this Loan Agreement and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.
(j) The agreements and obligations of Borrowers in this Section 12.15 shall survive the payment of all other Obligations.
12.16 | Loan Agreement Controls |
If there is any inconsistency between this Loan Agreement and any other Loan Documents, the terms of this Loan Agreement shall control.
12.17 | Loan Party Obligations |
Wherever this Loan Agreement contemplates or imposes an obligation on a Loan Party who is not otherwise a party to this Loan Agreement, Borrowers agree that it shall cause such Loan Party to perform such obligation.
70 |

6. Payments Due on a Day other than a Business Day.

If, due to any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Loan Agreement, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall exceed any such limit, then, the obligation to be so fulfilled shall be reduced to such lawful limit, and, if Lender shall have received interest or any other charges of any kind that might be deemed to be interest under applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful rate, then such excess shall be applied first to any unpaid fees and charges under this Note, then to unpaid principal balance owed by Borrowers under this Note, and if the then remaining excess interest is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance under this Note, Lender shall promptly refund such excess amount to Borrowers and the provisions of this Loan Agreement shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate.
10. Joint and Several. The obligations of each Borrower are joint and several.
11. Governing Law. THIS NOTE AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS ARE GOVERNED BY FEDERAL LAW AND, FOR THE PURPOSES OF EXPORTATION OF INTEREST AND INTEREST FEES UNDER FEDERAL LAW, LENDER RELIES ON CALIFORNIA LAW.
