7.2.3.2 To pay, settle or compromise all claims that are, or may become, liens against any of the Alameda (Bayport) Assets, or may be necessary or desirable to clear objections to, or encumbrances on, title of any of the Alameda (Bayport) Assets;
7.2.3.3 To employ watchmen and erect security fences to protect the Real Property owned by Borrower from loss or damage; and
7.2.3.4 To take such action and require such performance as it deems necessary under any of the bonds or insurance policies to be furnished hereunder, to make settlements and compromises with the sureties or insurers thereunder, and in connection therewith to execute instruments of release and satisfaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision in any Loan Document to the contrary, if and when Lender enters into any agreement or signs any document under a power of attorney pursuant to any Loan Document for any Borrower, Lender shall not create any personal liability for Borrower beyond that which such Borrower is already subject. Lender will endeavor to provide notice of any document signed by Lender under a power of attorney for Borrower provided that the failure to do so shall not constitute a default hereunder by Lender or otherwise impair Lender’s rights or remedies hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.
7.2.4 All remedies of Lender provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available under the other Loan Documents or any other document or by law or equity, but subject to Section 11.15 below. No exercise by Lender of any right or remedy shall in any way constitute a cure or waiver of an Event of Default, or invalidate any act done pursuant to any notice of default, or prejudice Lender in the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Lender. No failure by Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver
-25-
or otherwise preclude enforcement of any of its rights and remedies; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right or remedy. Lender does not need to resort to any particular right or remedy before exercising or enforcing any other.
8. PARTIAL RECONVEYANCE AND RELEASE. Except as provided in this Section 8, the Real Property shall not be released from the liens of the Deed of Trust and the Venture Interest shall not be released from the Venture Pledge Assignment until Repayment.
8.1 Contributions of Real Property to the Venture. At the request of Borrower in connection with a contribution of Real Property to the Venture (“Contribution”), Lender shall execute and deliver (i) a reconveyance releasing that portion of the Real Property being contributed to the Venture by Borrower from the lien of the Deed of Trust securing such Real Property which shall be recorded in the Official Records concurrently with the Contribution thereof and in connection with each Contribution the satisfaction of each of the following conditions:
8.1.1 The Real Property being released constitutes a legally subdivided interest in real property, and sale thereof will not otherwise violate any applicable Legal Requirement;
8.1.2 Lender shall have received copies of all documentation executed by Borrower, Xxxxxxxxxx and/or CIC concerning the contribution of the Real Property to the Venture.
8.1.3 Borrower shall have paid all reasonable out of pocket costs, fees and expenses incurred or charged by Lender in connection with the release of the Real Property;
8.1.4 If less than all of the Real Property secured by the Deed of Trust is being released, Borrower will execute and deliver to Lender in recordable form and on terms acceptable to Lender, an Amendment to the Deed of Trust to reflect, among other things, that the term “Property” as used in the Deed of Trust shall thereafter mean and refer to the remaining portion of the Real Property which will be recorded immediately prior to the release.
8.1.5 If less than all of the Real Property secured by the Deed of Trust is being released, if requested by Lender, Borrower shall furnish Lender an endorsement or endorsements updating the existing loan title policy, and revising the insured estate to exclude the released portion of the Real Property, in form satisfactory to Lender. The endorsements shall insure the Deed of Trust to be a first and prior lien on the remaining Real Property subject only to the Permitted Exceptions and any other exceptions which may be approved by Lender, in its sole discretion;
8.1.6 If requested by Lender, Guarantor shall have reaffirmed in writing to Lender all of its obligations under the Guaranty.
-26-
9. ASSIGNMENT OF BUYER’S RIGHTS UNDER THE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT. Borrower hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to Lender, and grants to Lender a first lien security interest in, as security for the Loan, all of Borrower’s rights, title and interests in and to the Purchase and Sale Agreement relating to the Alameda (Bayport) Assets. During the continuance of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, Borrower shall not take any action or exercise any right under the Purchase Agreement relating to the Alameda (Bayport) Assets without Lender’s prior written consent, which may be given or withheld in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion. Borrower shall perform and discharge in all material respects each and every obligation, covenant and agreement of Borrower under the Purchase and Sale Agreement and shall do all acts that may be necessary to maintain, preserve and protect the Borrower’s rights thereunder. Borrower will not convey, assign, encumber or transfer, whether for purposes of security or otherwise, any of its rights under the Purchase and Sale Agreement.
10. ASSIGNMENT OF THE XXXXXXXXXX LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE SHORTFALL LOAN DOCUMENTS.
10.1 Note Collateral. As used herein, the term “Note Collateral” shall mean, collectively all of the Borrower’s right title and interest as lender under the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents and the Shortfall Loan Documents, including without limitation the right to receive the Shortfall Note Payments and the Xxxxxxxxxx Note Payments (sometimes collectively referred to as, the “Note Payments”), and any and all renewals and extensions of any of the foregoing and any and all replacements or substitutions for any of the foregoing; and any and all proceeds of the foregoing.
10.2 Pledge and Assignment of, and Grant of Security Interest in, the Note Collateral. Borrower hereby deposits with Lender and otherwise assigns, transfers and grants to Lender, and there is hereby created in favor of Lender a security interest under the California Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) in and to the Note Collateral as additional security for the Loan.
10.3 Nature of Assignment. Borrower agrees that Lender shall have sole and exclusive possession of the original Note Collateral, including the original Shortfall Note and Xxxxxxxxxx Note, and that the assignment contained in this Section 10 constitutes a present and current assignment of the Note Collateral and is effective upon the execution and delivery hereof. Payments under or with respect to the Note Collateral shall be made as follows:
10.3.1 Lender shall have the right, at any time, to notify the Note Obligors under the Note Collateral, of the assignment of the Note Collateral to Lender hereunder and, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, to direct Borrower and Note Obligors to pay all Note Payments directly to Lender.
10.3.2 So long as an Event of Default is not continuing, within one business day of receipt, Borrower shall pay to Lender Lender’s share of each and every Note Payment received by Borrower as and when required under the Note. All such payments received by Borrower during the continuance of an Event of Default shall be immediately delivered to Lender, in the same form as received,
-27-
with the addition only of such endorsements and assignments as may be necessary to transfer title to Lender, and pending such delivery, all such payments shall be held in trust for Lender. All Note Payments received by Lender (other than during the continuance of an Event of Default) shall constitute Mandatory Principal Payments and applied to the Note in accordance with Section 3 of the Note.
10.3.3 During the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby agrees that it shall pay, and Borrower hereby authorizes and directs CIC to thereafter pay all Shortfall Note Payments and Xxxxxxxxxx to pay all Xxxxxxxxxx Note Payments directly to Lender, and any and all such Shorftall Note Payments and Xxxxxxxxxx Note Payments received by Borrower shall be promptly delivered to Lender in the same form as received, with the addition only of such endorsements and assignments as may be necessary to transfer title to Lender, and pending such delivery, all such payments shall be held in trust for Lender and upon receipt by Lender shall be applied to the Indebtedness.
10.3.4 Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Lender, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, either in its name or otherwise, for the purpose of taking any or all of the following actions: to ask, demand, xxx for, attach, levy, settle, compromise, collect, recover, receive and give receipt for any and all of the Note Collateral and to take any and all actions as Lender may deem necessary or desirable in order to realize upon the Note Collateral, or any portion thereof, including the right and power to endorse, in the name of Borrower, any checks, notes, drafts and other instruments received in payment of all or any portion of the Note Collateral; it being specifically understood and agreed, however, that Lender shall not be obligated in any manner whatsoever to exercise any such power or authority or be in any way responsible for the collection of or realizing upon the Note Collateral, or any portion thereof. The foregoing appointment is irrevocable and shall continue, and any such rights, powers and privileges shall be exclusive in Lender, until full repayment of the Loan.
10.4 Note Collateral. The originals of the Shortfall Note and Xxxxxxxxxx Note, each duly endorsed by Borrower pursuant to an allonge, in form and substance acceptable to Lender (“Allonges”), and the originals of the other Shortfall Loan Documents and the other Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents, all have been delivered to Lender; provided, however, that so long as there is no Event of Default existing, Lender shall return such originals to Borrower as necessary for Borrower to enforce the terms and conditions of the Shortfall Loan Documents and/or the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents as applicable and provided further however that Borrower shall return such originals promptly after the completion of such enforcement actions.
10.5 Information About Collateral and Inspection of Books. Borrower shall keep at all times complete and accurate records of all Shortfall Note Payments and the Xxxxxxxxxx Note Payments received by Borrower and shall allow Lender upon
-28-
reasonable notice to inspect, audit, check and make extracts from such records, and Lender shall have the right to make direct verification from CIC and/or Xxxxxxxxxx. Borrower shall, immediately upon request by Lender, execute and deliver to Lender a sworn affidavit setting forth in detail any and all Note Payments received by Borrower during any period specified by Lender. Borrower shall promptly forward to Lender copies of all communications received by Borrower from CIC or Xxxxxxxxxx or from any other party, or sent by Borrower, relating to the Note Collateral. In furtherance of the immediately preceding sentence, Borrower represents to Lender that it has authorized and does hereby authorize Development Manager to give Lender access to all such communications and Lender agrees that, during the term of the Development Management Agreement, Lender shall be deemed to have notice of all such communications.
10.6 Good Title. Borrower is the sole, lawful and beneficial owner of the Note Collateral acquired from Seller and has the full and complete right, power and authority to create a security interest in the Note Collateral in favor of Lender, in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The security interest in the Note Collateral created hereunder constitutes and will at all times continue to constitute a valid and enforceable first priority perfected security interest in the Note Collateral in favor of Lender, free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances and rights of others. Borrower has made no contract or arrangement of any kind or type whatsoever (whether oral or written, formal or informal), the performance of which by the other party thereto could give rise to a lien on the Note Collateral or any portion thereof.
10.7 No Future Encumbrance or Transfer. Borrower shall not encumber, pledge, anticipate, borrow against, or create any right of offset against the Note Collateral, and shall not transfer, assign, sell or convey all or any portion of the Note Collateral.
10.8 Consents. Borrower will deliver to Lender on the Closing Date the written consent of Xxxxxxxxxx and CIC to the collateral assignment to Lender of the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents and the Shortfall Loan Documents, respectively, in form and content acceptable to Lender.
10.9 Perfection of Security Interest. Borrower authorizes Lender to file any one or more financing statements in California and/or in Delaware and to execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further assignments, security agreements, endorsements, and assurances as Lender may from time to time require for the better assuring, conveying, assigning and confirming to Lender of the Note Collateral and the rights hereby conveyed or assigned or intended now or hereafter to be conveyed or assigned, and for carrying out the intention or facilitating the performance of the terms of the assignment contained herein. Upon the earlier of the full payment of the Loan or the time required under the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents for the release of the Note Collateral, Lender will execute a release of the Note Collateral (as respects the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents), including a release of any financing statements that may have been filed in California and/or in Delaware. In addition, upon the earlier of the full payment of the Loan or the time required under the Alameda Loan Documents for the
-29-
release of the Note Collateral, Lender will execute a release of the Note Collateral (as respects the Alameda Loan Documents), including a release of any financing statements that may have been filed in California and/or in Delaware and a reconveyance or release of the Collateral Assignment of Shortfall Deed of Trust.
10.10 Collateral; Compliance and Defense. Borrower shall comply in all material respects with all obligations of Borrower as lender under the Shortfall Loan Documents and Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents. Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claims against the Note Collateral or any action that might affect the Note Collateral or any interest therein.
10.11 Protecting Collateral. Borrower will diligently and in good faith do all things and take all actions, including bringing appropriate actions against the applicable note obligor that are necessary or desirable to enforce the obligations of such note obligor to make the Shortfall Note Payments and the Xxxxxxxxxx Note Payments, as applicable, and to protect and preserve the interest of Lender, under the assignment contained herein.
10.12 Notices. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender copies of any notice received or given by either CIC or Xxxxxxxxxx. Borrower shall notify Lender immediately upon its receipt of any notice from either Xxxxxxxxxx or CIC of its intention to make a Shortfall Note Payment or a Xxxxxxxxxx Note Payment.
10.13 Action by Lender. During the continuance of an Event of Default:
10.13.1 Lender may take such action as Lender may deem reasonably necessary to protect the Note Collateral or its security interest therein, Lender being hereby authorized to pay, purchase, contest and compromise any encumbrance, charge or lien that in the sole and absolute judgment of Lender appears to be prior or superior to its security interest, and in exercising any such powers and authority to pay necessary expenses, employ counsel and pay attorney’s fees.
10.13.2 Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make advances to protect the Note Collateral and its security therein, and any such advances made by Lender shall be deemed advances under the Loan Documents, increasing the indebtedness under the Loan.
10.13.3 To ask for, demand, xxx for, collect, compound, receive, receipt for and give acquittances for any and all Note Payments; to endorse, in the name of Borrower or otherwise, all checks, notes, drabs, money orders, evidences of payment, or other instruments received in payment of, or on account of, the Note Collateral or any portion thereof; and to take any and all actions as Lender may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to preserve, process, develop, maintain and protect the Note Collateral and the value thereof and Lender’s interest therein for the benefit of Lenders, to realize upon the Collateral, or any portion thereof, including making any statements and doing or taking any acts on behalf of Borrower that are otherwise required of Borrower under the
-30-
terms of the Note Collateral or any portion thereof as conditions precedent to the payment of the obligations evidenced by, or to the exercise of, the Collateral or any portion thereof; and to exercise any right and remedies available under the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents or the Shortfall Loan Documents, either in the name of Borrower or otherwise, and to execute any document or instrument that Lender may deem necessary or desirable in connection therewith, including pleadings, consent orders, stipulations, and other documents and instruments that Lender may deem necessary or desirable in connection with judicial or non judicial foreclosure of the Shortfall Deed of Trust or of the Shortfall Membership Pledge, other legal actions or proceedings with respect to the Note Collateral;
10.13.4 To endorse and transfer the Note Collateral upon foreclosure; provided, however, that Lender shall be under no obligation whatsoever to take any of the foregoing actions or to exercise any of the foregoing authority or power, and Lender shall have no liability or responsibility for any act or omission taken with respect thereto. Lender may exercise all of such rights and powers at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, whether or not Lender has previously exercised its right to foreclose its security interest in the Note Collateral. The foregoing appointment of Lender as CIC’s attorney-in-fact is coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked by insolvency, reorganization, merger, consolidation or otherwise.
10.14 No Duty to Act. Lender shall be under no duty or obligation (i) to preserve, process, develop, maintain or protect the Note Collateral or any of Borrower’s rights or interests therein, or (ii) to make or give any notices of default, presentments, demands for performance, notices of non-performance or dishonor, protests, notices of protests or notices of any other nature whatsoever in connection with the Note Collateral on behalf of Borrower or any other Person having any interest therein; and Lender does not assume and shall not be obligated to perform the obligations of Borrower, if any, with respect to the Note Collateral.
10.15 Enforcement Rights. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that during the continuance of an Event of Default, and whether or not Lender, is the absolute owner of the Note Collateral, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise and enforce, in its name or otherwise, any or all rights and remedies of Borrower under the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents and the Shortfall Loan Documents to the exclusion of Borrower, including the right to inspect the Real Property, to receive information and documents, to declare due the Shortfall Note and the Xxxxxxxxxx Note as and when provided under the Shortfall Loan Documents and the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents, to grant or withhold approvals, and to exercise discretion with respect to any matter as and when provided under the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents and the Shortfall Loan Documents. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall not exercise or attempt to exercise any such right or remedy except with the written consent of Lender (which may be given or withheld in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion) and only in strict accordance with the instructions of Lender, and, if Lender so requires, the Shortfall Loan Documents and/or the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents may be reassigned to Borrower for such purpose. If Lender shall reassign the Shortfall Loan Documents or the
-31-
Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents to Borrower for the purpose of permitting the exercise by Borrower of the right of foreclosure or power of sale thereunder, or the exercise of other rights and remedies thereunder, such reassignment shall be in such form and substance as shall be acceptable to Lender in its sole and absolute discretion. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, enforce or conduct any action for foreclosure under the Shortfall Loan Documents or the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents in its name or otherwise, and Borrower specifically consents to any foreclosure (including non judicial foreclosure) under any or all of the Shortfall Loan Documents and/or the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents or any other action taken by Lender even though such action may release CIC or Xxxxxxxxxx or any other obligor under the Collateral from personal liability with respect to any of the Shortfall Loan Documents or Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents. Upon the exercise by Lender of any such remedies, any amount bid by Lender at any sale of the Real Property owned by CIC or any of the other collateral for the Shortfall Note or any sale of the interest of Xxxxxxxxxx in the Venture or any of the other collateral for the Xxxxxxxxxx Note may, at the option of Lender, be deemed to be a credit bid by Lender of the indebtedness evidenced by the Shortfall Note or the Xxxxxxxxxx Note, as applicable or either or both of them, and the indebtedness evidenced by the Loan; Lender shall be entitled to setoff the amount of any such bid against any such indebtedness, all at the election of Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion; and any or all proceeds of the Xxxxxxxxxx Note or the Shortfall Note may be applied against the indebtedness evidenced by the Loan in such order as Lender shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion, and Lender shall hold any property obtained by Lender at any such sale free and clear of any interest or claims of Borrower, regardless of whether Lender shall have exercised any remedy under this Agreement with respect to any of the Shortfall Loan Documents or Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents, or shall have sold any of the Shortfall Loan Documents or Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents or obtained absolute title thereto pursuant to its rights and remedies under the California Commercial Code or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Lender shall become the owner of any property securing the Shortfall Note or the Xxxxxxxxxx Note at any such sale, any amount bid by Lender, on behalf of Lenders, at any such sale shall be credited against the Indebtedness; and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by Borrower of any interest it may have under applicable law to any excess proceeds of any such sale.
10.16 Note Collateral Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies that Lender may have under this Section 10, at law, in equity or otherwise, all of the rights and remedies hereinafter set forth, and Lender may exercise without further notice to Borrower any one or more or all of such remedies without thereby waiving any of the others:
10.16.1 Lender shall have the right immediately to exercise all of its rights and remedies provided under the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents and the Shortfall Loan Documents.
10.16.2 Lender shall have the right to notify CIC and Xxxxxxxxxx that all Note Payments are to be made directly and exclusively to Lender; to collect and to continue to collect all Note Payments on the Note Collateral; to
-32-
renew, extend, accelerate, accept partial payments on, make allowances and adjustments and issue credits with respect to, release, settle, compound, collect or otherwise liquidate, on terms acceptable to Lender, in whole or in part, the Note Collateral and any amounts owing thereon or any guaranty or security therefor; to enter into any other agreement relating to or affecting the Note Collateral; to give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Note Collateral and exercise all other rights, powers and remedies and otherwise act with respect thereto as if it were the owner thereof; and to enforce payments and prosecute any action or proceeding with respect to any and all of the Note Collateral and take or bring, in its name or otherwise, all steps, actions, suits or proceedings deemed by Lender necessary or desirable to affect collection of or to realize upon the Note Collateral.
10.16.3 Lender shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the California Commercial Code as in effect at that time, including the right to take possession of the Note Collateral, and to sell or otherwise dispose of the same.
10.16.4 Lender shall have the right to foreclose the liens and security interests created under this Section 10 or under any other agreement relating to the Note Collateral by any available judicial procedure or without judicial process; and to sell, assign, lease or otherwise dispose of the Note Collateral or any part thereof, either at public or private sale, in lots or in bulk, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, or otherwise, with or without representations or warranties, and upon such terms as shall be acceptable to Lender in its sole and absolute discretion.
10.17 Application of Net Proceeds. The net cash proceeds resulting from the collection, liquidation, sale, lease or other disposition of the Note Collateral shall be applied to the payment and satisfaction of the Indebtedness in such order as Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect.
10.18 No Modifications or Settlements Without Lender’s Consent. Borrower shall not, without Lender’s written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except as to the following clauses (i) and (iii) which may be given or withheld by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion): (i) settle or compromise any payment due under the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents and/or the Shortfall Loan Documents; (ii) materially amend, modify, supplement or otherwise alter the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents and/or the Shortfall Loan Documents; (iii) cancel or terminate the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents and/or the Shortfall Loan Documents; or (iv) waive or forgive any obligation under the Xxxxxxxxxx Loan Documents and/or the Shortfall Loan Documents.
11. MISCELLANEOUS.
11.1 Sale of Loan and Loan Participations.
-33-
11.1.1 Lender may, at its cost and expense, sell participations to one or more Persons in all or a portion of the Loan not to exceed a 50% interest in the Loan. In the event of a secondary market transaction or any other sale or transfer of all or a participation interest in Lender’s interest in the Loan, Borrower and Guarantor shall be entitled to deal with and rely upon only Lender as servicer of the Loan or as administrative agent on behalf of all such participants of the Loan in connection with all matters relating to the Loan and shall not incur any costs greater those if the lead lender were the only lender (including enforcement costs). Any such transaction shall be at Lender’s sole cost and expense, including without limitation, the cost of any reports, certifications or opinions required of Borrower or Guarantor in connection with any such transaction provided that in no event shall any Borrower be liable (by way of certification or otherwise) for information or statements contained in third party reports used in secondary marketing transactions. No such transaction shall result in a material increase in the obligations or liability of Borrower or Guarantor under the Loan Documents by reason of any requested covenant, representation, warranty, indemnity or certification or otherwise.
11.1.2 So long as there is no Event of Default existing under the Loan Documents, Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loan in full in accordance with the terms set forth herein, if Lender desires to sell the Loan to a third party that is unrelated to Lender (“Unrelated Loan Purchaser”) and that is not occurring in connection with a Change in Control in which case Borrower will have the right to prepay the Loan pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 of the Note (hereinafter, a “Loan Sale”). If Lender desires to consummate a Loan Sale, then Lender shall give written notice of such intention to Borrower (“Proposed Loan Sale Notice”), which Proposed Loan Sale Notice shall set forth the purchase price (“Purchase Price”) payable for the Loan by the Unrelated Loan Purchaser. Once a Proposed Loan Sale Notice has been delivered to Borrower, Lender may not proceed with a Loan Sale until Borrower has been given the right to repay the Loan in full on the terms set forth in this Section 10.2. Borrower shall have five (5) business days after receiving the Proposed Loan Sale Notice to exercise the right to repay the Loan by giving written notice (“Exercise Notice”) thereof to Lender within such 5 business day period. If Borrower timely gives the Exercise Notice, then Borrower shall have until 5:00 p.m. on the 30th day after the date Lender receives the Exercise Notice to prepay the Loan in full by paying to Lender in cash or other readily available funds an amount equal to the Purchase Price set forth in the Proposed Loan Sale Notice. If Buyer fails to timely give the Exercise Notice, or if Borrower affirmatively declines in writing the opportunity to payoff the Loan, or if Borrower fails to repay the Loan in full within the time and manner herein provided, then Borrower shall be deemed to have declined the right to payoff the Loan and Lender shall thereafter have the right for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days to consummate the Loan Sale for a purchase price that is no less than 97% of the Purchase Price set forth in the Proposed Loan Sale Notice, after which time Borrowers’ rights under this Section 11.1.2 will apply again to any proposed sale of the Loan.
-34-

Except as provided herein to the contrary, no communications via electronic mail shall be effective to give any notice, request, direction, demand, consent, waiver, approval or other communications hereunder.
11.3 Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, and in addition to Borrowers’ other obligations hereunder, at law, in equity or otherwise, Borrowers agree to protect, indemnify, defend and hold Indemnitees harmless from and against any Legal Action (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses in connection therewith),
-35-
liability, loss, out of pocket cost, expense or damage of any kind or nature that Indemnitees may incur or that may be brought or claimed against Indemnitees (collectively, “Losses”) in connection with (a) any breach by Borrowers or Guarantor of any material representation, warranty or covenant made in the Loan Documents or in any of the materials prepared by or on behalf of Borrowers or Guarantor; (b) any aspect of the Project, including the condition, occupancy/possession, use, management, planning, design, acquisition, sale, leasing, installation, maintenance, repair or construction of the Project; (c) the use of the proceeds of the Loan; (d) any lawful action that may be taken by Lender in connection with the enforcement of the provisions of the Loan Documents (including this Section 9.4), whether or not a Legal Action is brought by Indemnitees in connection with the same, or in connection with Borrower or Guarantor and/or any direct or indirect Constituent Owner thereof becoming a party to a voluntary or involuntary federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding; (e) any lawful action that may be taken by Lender in connection with Borrower, Guarantor and/or any member or shareholder thereof becoming a party to a voluntary or involuntary federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, whether or not a Legal Action is brought by Indemnitees in connection with the same; or (f) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (other than Lender’s failure to comply with any Legal Requirement that is applicable to the operation of Lender’s internal business affairs, including Lender’s failure to pay any fee for any license required to operate Lender’s business or Lender’s failure to pay its own income taxes). Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intent of Borrower and Indemnitees that Borrower shall be liable to indemnify Indemnitees under this Section 9.4 irrespective of the cause of such indemnification liability (i.e., regardless of whether or not caused by any act, omission, willful misconduct or negligent conduct (whether active or passive) of Borrower, or otherwise), except to the extent the cause of such indemnification liability is the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Indemnitees. Borrower further covenants and agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to pay or reimburse Indemnitees for all reasonable out of pocket costs, fees or expenses incurred by Indemnitees in connection with investigating or defending any of the matters that Borrowers are required under this Section 11.3 to indemnify Indemnitees from or against. Upon being notified of or served in connection with any Legal Action that Indemnitees believe is covered under this Section 11.3, Indemnitees shall give Borrowers notice of such Legal Action and an opportunity to defend the same, at Borrower’s cost and expense, with legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitees. Indemnitees may also, in their sole and absolute discretion, require Borrower to defend, at Borrower’s cost and expense and with legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitees, any such Legal Action. Borrower shall not settle or otherwise compromise any matter that Borrower is required under this Section to indemnify Indemnitees from or against Indemnitees without the prior approval thereof by Indemnitees, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The obligations of Borrowers under this Section shall survive Repayment and the surrender of the Note, release of the Venture Pledge Agreement, and reconveyance of the Deed of Trust for a period of one (1) year, except as to claims made by Indemnitees under, in connection with or pursuant this Section prior thereto, and the foreclosure of the Venture Pledge Agreement and/or the Deed of Trust and the extinguishment of the Deed of Trust by any means, including deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure for a period of three (3) years, except as to claims

11.4 Brokers. Borrower and Lender represent to the other that it does not know of any brokerage commissions or finders’ fees due or claimed with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby. Borrower and Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the other from and against all loss, damage, liability and expense, including costs and attorneys’ fees, that the other may incur or sustain by reason of or in connection with any misrepresentation by the indemnifying party with respect to the foregoing.
11.5 Change, Discharge, Termination or Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be changed, discharged, terminated or waived except in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, discharge, termination or waiver is sought. No failure by Lender to exercise and no delay by Lender in exercising any right or remedy under the Loan Documents or under the law or in equity shall operate as a waiver thereof.
11.6 Waiver. No previous waiver and no failure or delay by Lender in acting with respect to the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any breach, default or failure of a condition under this Agreement. A waiver of any provision of this Agreement must be made in writing by Lender and shall be limited to the written terms of such waiver.
11.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement.
11.8 Lender’s Costs and Fees. Borrower shall promptly pay all reasonable Costs (defined below) incurred by Lender in connection with the modification, workout, collection or enforcement of the Loan or any of the Loan Documents and all such Costs shall be included as additional Indebtedness bearing interest at the Default Rate until paid. For the purposes hereof “Costs” means all out of pocket expenditures and expenses which may be paid or incurred by or on behalf of Lender including without limitation, repair costs, payments to remove or protect against liens, reasonable attorneys’ fees, experts’ fees, receivers’ fees, engineers’ fees, accountants’ fees, independent consultants’ fees (including environmental consultants), all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any of the foregoing, Lender’s out-of-pocket costs and expenses related to any audit or inspection of the Real Property or Venture Interest, outlays for documentary and expert evidence, stenographers’ charges, stamp taxes, publication costs, and costs (which may be estimates as to items to be expended after entry of an order or judgment) for procuring all such abstracts of title, title and UCC searches, and examination, title
-37-
insurance policies, and similar data and assurances with respect to title as Lender may deem reasonably necessary either to prosecute any action or to provide evidence to bidders at any foreclosure sale of the true condition of the title to, or the value of, the Venture Interest or the Real Property, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred or expended by Trustee or Lender arising out of or in connection with any action, proceeding or hearing, legal, equitable or quasi-legal, including the preparation therefore and any appeal therefrom, in any way affecting or pertaining to the Loan Documents, the Venture Interest or the Real Property. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.9, in the event Lender or Borrowers bring an action against the other party (other than under or pursuant to any one of the Loan Documents or the Environmental Indemnity), the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs in such tort action.
11.9 Reinstatement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Lender’s rights hereunder shall be reinstated and revived, and the enforceability of the Loan Documents shall continue, with respect to any amount at any time paid on account of the Loan that thereafter shall be required to be restored or returned by Lender, including the restoration or return of any amount pursuant to a court order or judgment (whether or not final or non-appealable), or pursuant to a reasonable, good faith settlement of a pending or threatened avoidance or recovery action, or pursuant to reasonable, good faith compliance with a demand made by a Person believed to be entitled to pursue an avoidance or recovery action such as a bankruptcy trustee or a Person having the avoiding powers of a bankruptcy trustee or similar avoiding powers (and without requiring Lender to oppose or litigate avoidance or recovery demands or actions that Lender believes in good faith to be meritorious or worthy of settlement or compliance, or pursue or exhaust appeals), all as though such amount had not been paid. The rights of Lender created or granted herein and the enforceability of the Loan Documents at all times shall remain effective to cover the full amount of the Loan even though the Loan, including any part thereof or any other security or guaranty therefor, may be or hereafter may become invalid or otherwise unenforceable as against any other Person and whether or not any other Person shall have any personal liability with respect thereto.
11.10 Jury Waiver. Borrower and Lender voluntarily, knowingly, irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right to have a jury participate in resolving any dispute (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) between the parties hereto arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement.
11.11 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, constitutes the entire agreement of the parties to the Loan Documents with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersedes, in all respects, all other communications between or among such parties, whether oral or written.
11.12 Modifications. This Agreement may not be modified except by a writing signed by the parties hereto.
11.13 Independent Effect. All covenants herein shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any one of such
-38-
covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant, shall not avoid the occurrence of an Event of Default or Potential Default if such action is taken or condition exists.
11.14 Relationship of Lender and Borrowers. The relationship between Lenders and Borrower shall be that of creditor-debtor only. No term in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents or in the Purchase and Sale Agreement or the Development Management Agreement, and no course of dealing between the parties, shall be deemed to create any relationship of agency, partnership or joint venture or any fiduciary duty by Lender to any other party. No default by the Development Manager under the Development Management Agreement or by a Seller under the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall be deemed or construed to constitute a default under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to create a defense to the performance of Borrower’s obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, or to otherwise affect, impair, delay or alter in any way Lender’s rights and remedies under the Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that none of the rights or obligations of the parties hereunder or under the Loan Documents shall be affected, impaired, delayed or altered in any way by the fact that Sellers and Development Manager are affiliated with Lender.
11.15 Non-Recourse Loan. The provisions of Section 11 of the Note (Non-Recourse Liability; Recourse Carve-Outs) are hereby incorporated herein by this reference.

EXHIBIT D | ||||
-1- |
trustees, beneficiaries or any affiliates of any of them as a division or part of it, (xxiv) will not enter into or be a party to, any transaction with its partners, members, shareholders, beneficiaries, trustees or its affiliates except in the ordinary course of its business and on terms which are intrinsically fair and are no less favorable to it than would be obtained in a comparable arms-length transaction with an unrelated third party, (xxv) will pay the salaries of its own employees from its own funds, (xxvi) will maintain adequate capital in light of its contemplated business operations (as reasonably determined by each Borrower in good faith), (xxvii) if such entity is a limited liability company, limited partnership, or business trust then such entity shall continue and not dissolve whether as a consequence of bankruptcy or insolvency of one or more of the members, general partners, or trustees, as applicable, or otherwise, for so long as a solvent managing member, general partner, or trustee, as applicable, exists and, subject to applicable law, dissolution of the entity shall not occur so long as the entity remains owner of the Venture Interest or the Real Property subject to the applicable Deed of Trust.
Each such entity’s organizational documents shall contain such provision, (xxviii) if such entity is a limited liability company with two (2) or more members, it may be organized and existing under the laws of any state, (xxiv) if such entity is a limited liability company with only a single member then it must be organized and existing under the laws of the state of Delaware, and upon the occurrence of any event that causes the member to cease to be a member of the limited liability company (other than (a) upon an assignment by the member of all of its limited liability company interest in the limited liability company and the admission of the transferee pursuant to the operating agreement, or (b) the resignation of the member and the admission of an additional member of the limited liability company), each person acting as a Special Member (defined below) pursuant to the operating agreement shall, without any action of any person and simultaneously with the member ceasing to be a member of the limited liability company, automatically be admitted to the limited liability company as a Special Member and shall continue the limited liability company without dissolution. No Special Member may resign from the limited liability company or transfer its rights as Special Member unless a successor Special Member has been admitted to the limited liability company as Special Member by executing a counterpart to the operating agreement; provided, however, the Special Members shall automatically cease to be members of the limited liability company upon the admission to the limited liability company of a substitute member. Each Special Member shall be a member of the limited liability company that has no interest in the profits, losses and capital of the limited liability company and has no right to receive any distributions of limited liability company assets. Pursuant to Section 18-301 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “Act”), a Special Member shall not be required to make any capital contributions to the limited liability company and shall not receive a limited liability company interest in the limited liability company. A Special Member, in its capacity as Special Member, may not bind the limited liability company. Except as required by any mandatory provision of the Act, each Special Member, in its capacity as Special Member, shall have no right to vote on, approve or otherwise consent to any action by, or matter relating to, the limited liability company, including, without limitation, the merger, consolidation or conversion of the limited liability company. The Sole Member shall not, so long as the Loan has not been paid in full, amend, alter, change or repeal the definition of “Special Member” or any sections that relate to Special Members of the operating agreement without the unanimous written consent of all member(s) and Special Members. Until the Loan is repaid in full, notwithstanding any other provision of the operating agreement and any provision of law that otherwise empowers the limited liability company or
EXHIBIT D | ||||
-2- |
any member or any other person to the contrary, no member nor any other person so authorized shall permit the limited liability company, without the prior unanimous written consent of Lender and all Special Members, to take any Bankruptcy-Related Action (defined below). Until the Loan is repaid in full, the Sole Member shall cause the limited liability company at all times to have at least one Special Member who will be appointed by the member. In the event of a vacancy in the position of Special Member, the Sole Member shall, as soon as practicable, appoint a successor Special Member. One or more additional members of the limited liability company may be admitted to the limited liability company with the written consent of the member; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as any obligation to the Lender remains outstanding, no additional member may be admitted to the limited liability company unless permitted by the Loan Documents. The Sole Member shall agree that the operating agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Sole Member, and is enforceable against the Sole Member by the Special Members, in accordance with its terms. In addition, the Special Members shall be intended beneficiaries of the operating agreement. For purposes hereof the term “Special Member” means a person or entity who is not a member of the limited liability company but has agreed to act as a Special Member under the terms of the operating agreement with only the rights and duties expressly set forth in the operating agreement and only upon the occurrence of certain events that cause the member to cease to be a member of the limited liability company.
Until the Loan is paid in full, notwithstanding any other provision of the operating agreement and any provision of law that otherwise empowers the limited liability company or any member or any other person to the contrary, Borrower shall at all times have at least one (1) Independent Manager who will be appointed by the Sole Member and approved by Lender. To the maximum extent permitted by law, including Section 18-1101(c) of the Act, the Independent Manager shall consider only the interests of the applicable Borrower, including its respective creditors, in acting or otherwise voting on a Bankruptcy-Related Action. No resignation or removal of an Independent Manager, and no appointment of a successor Independent Manager, shall be effective until such successor (i) shall have accepted his or her appointment as an Independent Manager by a written instrument, and (ii) shall have executed an instrument signifying its agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event of a vacancy in the position of Independent Manager (as a result of the death or incapacity of such Manager or any other event causing such vacancy), the Sole Member shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, appoint a successor Independent Manager, subject to Lender’s approval. All right, power, and authority of the Independent Managers shall be limited to the extent necessary to exercise those rights and perform those duties specifically set forth in this Agreement. Except as provided in the second sentence of this paragraph, in exercising the Independent Manager’s rights and performing the Independent Manager’s duties under this Agreement, any Independent Manager shall have a fiduciary duty of loyalty and care similar to that of a Manager of a business corporation organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. No Independent Manager shall at any time serve as trustee in bankruptcy for any affiliate of any Borrower. Provided that the Sole Member complies with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Sole Member may remove the Independent Manager at any time and for any reason, with or without cause, by giving written notice thereof to the Independent Manager. The Independent Manager shall be required to provide at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of any resignation by the Independent Manager. Until the Loan is paid in full, the operating agreement for each Borrower shall contain a provision, which shall not be modified
EXHIBIT D | ||||
-3- |
without Lender’s written consent (which may be given or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion) until the Loan is paid in full, stating that notwithstanding any provision of law that otherwise so empowers the applicable Borrower or any other person, the applicable Borrower, and any other person on behalf of the applicable Borrower, without the prior unanimous written consent of the Sole Member and the Independent Manager, shall not, with respect to the applicable Borrower or any other entity in which the Borrower has a direct or indirect legal or beneficial ownership interest take a Bankruptcy-Related Action.
A “Bankruptcy-Related Action” means (A) filing a bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization petition or otherwise institute insolvency proceedings or otherwise seek any relief under any laws relating to the relief from debts or the protection of debtors generally, (B) seeking or consenting to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator, custodian or similar official for such entity or for all or any portion of such entity’s properties, (C) making a general assignment for the benefit of such entity’s creditors, or (D) making or filing a declaration of insolvency in a judicial action.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.24 of this Agreement, Lender’s acceptance of the foregoing requirements, as applied to the Guarantor, shall be evidenced by Lender’s approval of the operating agreement for the Guarantor as of the Closing Date, which may be given or withheld in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion. Lender acknowledges that Guarantor is also the Sole Member of each Borrower and of the CF Capital Borrower and will be the Guarantor of both the Loan and the CF Capital Loan.
