Construction Event of Default and such obligations shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 5.2. Survival.

The termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 5.1 or 5.3 shall in no event relieve Construction Agent of its liability and obligations hereunder or under any other Operative Document which accrued prior to such termination, all of which shall survive any such termination.

SECTION 5.3. Remedies; Remedies Cumulative.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Construction Event of Default, at Owner’s option and without limiting Owner in the exercise of any other right or remedy Owner may have on account of such default (including, without limitation, any rights or remedies under the Lease and the other Operative Documents all of which are hereby incorporated by reference) and without any further demand or notice, the Administrative Agent acting upon the direction of the Required Participants may take any of the following actions to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law and Regulations, either individually or in combination with any other such remedy:

(i) exercise any and all rights and may pursue any and all remedies provided to it in the Lease, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated herein by this reference;

(ii) replace Construction Agent and cause construction of the Facility to be completed and require Construction Agent to pay to Owner any damages as a result thereof;

(iii) require Construction Agent to complete construction of all or part of the Facility (as determined by the Required Participants) with Advances and require Construction Agent to pay to the Participants any damages as a result thereof;

(iv) terminate this Agreement and/or the Lease and/or terminate the Commitments for the Construction of the Facility;

No delay or omission by Owner in the exercise of any right, power or remedy or in the pursuit of any remedy shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any default on the part of Construction Agent or be an acquiescence therein. Owner’s consent to any request made by Construction Agent shall not be deemed to constitute or preclude the necessity for obtaining Owner’s consent, in the future, to all similar requests. No express or implied waiver by Owner of any Construction Event of Default shall in any way be, or be construed to be, a waiver of any future or subsequent Construction Event of Default. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws and Regulations, Construction Agent hereby waives any rights now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise that may require Owner to sell, lease or otherwise use the Leased Property or any part thereof in mitigation of Owner’s damages upon the occurrence of a Construction Event of Default or that may otherwise limit or modify any of Owner’s rights or remedies under this Article V.

(c) Notwithstanding anything set forth herein or in the other Operative Documents to the contrary, during the Construction Period, the aggregate amount payable by Construction Agent on a recourse basis under this Article V shall be subject to the limitations on recourse liability set forth in Section 18.5 of the Lease subject to the rights and remedies of Owner and the Indemnitees set forth therein.

(d) So long as Owner has not exercised any other remedy inconsistent therewith, Construction Agent shall be obligated to purchase the Leased Property for the Purchase Amount automatically and without notice or demand therefor upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clauses (h) or (i) of Article XVII of the Lease. Upon receipt of the Purchase Amount, the Leased Property together with all of Owner’s rights to all insurance proceeds (other than any liability insurance proceeds) and condemnation awards shall be transferred to Construction Agent (or its designee) pursuant to Section 23.11 of the Lease.

(e) All payments received and amounts held or realized by Owner at any time when a Construction Event of Default shall be continuing and after the Lease Balance shall have been accelerated pursuant to this Section 5.3 as well as all payments or amounts then held or thereafter received by Owner (except for rents received by Owner from subletting pursuant to Section 18.1(a)(vii) of the Lease, which shall be distributed as set forth therein) and the proceeds of sale pursuant to Section 18.1(a)(iii)(B)(2) of the Lease shall be distributed forthwith upon receipt by Owner in accordance with Article X of the Participation Agreement.

(f) Construction Agent acknowledges that Owner has, as security for its obligations under the Rent Assignment Agreements and the other Operative Documents, among other grants, collaterally assigned its rights hereunder to the Collateral Agent and Administrative Agent and Construction Agent agrees that certain rights and remedies set forth herein are exercisable by the Administrative Agent as applicable.

SECTION 5.4. Surrender and Return.

(a) Upon the early termination of this Agreement, Construction Agent shall peaceably leave and surrender and return the Leased Property to Owner and Construction Agent shall remove from the Leased Property on or prior to such expiration or earlier termination all property situated thereon which is not the property of Owner and Construction Agent shall repair any damage caused by such removal. Property not so removed shall become the property of Owner and Owner may cause such property to be removed from the Leased Property and disposed of, and Construction Agent shall pay (without right of reimbursement out of gross sale proceeds) the reasonable cost of any such removal and disposition and of repairing any damage caused by such removal.

(b) Except for surrender upon the earlier termination hereof, no surrender to Owner of the Lease or of the Leased Property shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Owner.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the surrender and return of the Leased Property to Owner pursuant to this Section 5.4, the Leased Property shall be (x) capable of being immediately utilized by a third-party purchaser or third-party lessee without further inspection, alterations, licenses, permits, or approvals, except for any of the foregoing required solely by virtue of the change in ownership (other than to Owner), use or occupancy of the Leased Property, (y) in accordance and compliance with all Applicable Laws and Regulations including, without limitation, any of the foregoing required by virtue of a change in ownership, use or occupancy of the Leased Property other than to Construction Agent, and (z) legally subdivided and free and clear of any Lien other than Permitted Liens. Until the Leased Property has been surrendered and returned to Owner in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.4 and subject to the other provisions of Article V hereof, Construction Agent shall continue to be responsible for all Carrying Costs, Transaction Costs and Supplemental Rent due hereunder.

(d) Construction Agent acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the provisions of this Section 5.4 may result in damages to Owner that are difficult or impossible to ascertain and that may not be compensable at law. Accordingly, upon application to any court of equity having jurisdiction over the Leased Property or Construction Agent, Owner shall be entitled to a decree against Construction Agent requiring specific performance of the covenants of Construction Agent set forth in this Section 5.4.

To Construction and Development Agreement

Construction Period Insurance Requirements

Required Coverages.

During the Construction Period, Construction Agent will provide or cause to be provided insurance with respect to the Leased Property and the Site of a character usually obtained by Construction Agent and its Affiliates against loss or damage of the kinds and in the amounts customarily insured against by Construction Agent and its Affiliates with respect to similar properties, and carry such other insurance as is usually carried by Construction Agent and its Affiliates with respect to similar properties; provided, that in any event Construction Agent will maintain or cause to be maintained, as applicable:

Comprehensive General Liability Insurance. Construction Agent will maintain or will cause each of the Developer and the General Contractor to maintain, comprehensive general liability insurance, including coverages for contractual liability, against third-party bodily injury, including death, and third-party property damage, written on an occurrence basis against claims, including against Construction Agent, Lessor, Developer and any Contractor, in an amount at least equal to $30,000,000 per occurrence and $30,000,000 in the aggregate (which coverage may be met in combination with Primary Commercial General Liability coverage and Umbrella Liability excess coverages); provided that no such coverage shall be under a blanket policy. Such coverage shall (x) not be subject to any self-insurance and shall be subject to a deductible of no more than $50,000 per occurrence, (y) be in such form and amounts and covering such risks as were approved by Owner on the Closing Date, and (z) name each of Owner, each Rent Assignee, the Agents as an additional insured (collectively, the “Additional Insureds”) and, with respect to the liability insurance maintained by the Developer, name Construction Agent as co-Named Insured. Construction Agent, Developer and General Contractor each may, at its option, purchase additional primary liability insurance to meet the combined liability insurance requirements.

Without limiting the foregoing, Construction Agent will maintain a pollution legal liability policy covering itself. Such coverage shall be written on a claims made basis and shall apply to sudden and non-sudden pollution conditions. Such policy shall have limits not less than $15,000,000 per occurrence and $15,000,000 in the aggregate claims for bodily injury, property damage and cleanup costs, shall be renewed for a period of three years following the Base Term Commencement Date and shall name Lessor as an additional insured with respect to such policy.

Automobile Liability Insurance: Automobile liability insurance for the Construction Agent’s liability arising out of claims for bodily injury and property damage covering all owned (if any), leased (if any), non-owned and hired vehicles used in the performance of the Construction Agent’s obligations under the Construction and Development Agreement with a $2,000,000 minimum limit per accident for combined bodily injury and property damage and containing

appropriate no-fault insurance provisions wherever applicable. The automobile liability insurance shall have no self-insurance amounts and shall have deductibles not in excess of $50,000.

Worker’s Compensation and Employer’s Liability Insurance: Worker’s Compensation and Employer’s Liability Insurance, with respect to the General Contractor and the Developer, including occupational illness or disease coverage, or other similar social insurance in accordance with the laws of the nation, state, territory or province exercising jurisdiction over the Leased Property. Employer’s Liability coverage shall have a limit of $1,000,000 per accident, per employee for disease and in the aggregate for disease.

Builders’ Risk Insurance. Construction Agent will maintain or cause the General Contractor and the Developer to maintain a special form builders’ risk insurance policy on terms and conditions acceptable to the Participants and in an amount not less than 100% of insurable replacement cost value, but if aggregate Advances are in excess of 100% of the insurable replacement cost value (such replacement cost value as determined at the time of claim under such policy) then in an amount not less than such Advances (the “Minimum Coverage”), subject to a deductible not in excess of $50,000 per occurrence but, in the case of flood, $50,000 per occurrence and in the case of named storms, $25,000 per occurrence and, in the case of earth movement, not in excess of $100,000 per occurrence (and not in the form of self-insurance) and shall have no other self-insurance with respect thereto. Such builders’ risk insurance policy shall provide for property damage on an “all risk” basis in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, subject to limits, perils, exclusions and deductibles insuring Construction Agent, the Participants, the Developer, any contractor and subcontractors at any tier, as their interests may appear, including coverage for the perils of earth movement (including but not limited to earthquake, landslide and subsidence), damage from collapse, coverage for fire, hurricanes and flood (if the property is located in a high-risk flood zone), strike, riot, vandalism, sabotage and damage or loss caused by machinery accidents and operational and performance testing and start-up. Construction Agent shall require and shall ensure that such policy at all times during the Construction Period name the Additional Insureds as additional insureds and the Administrative Agent as loss payee, as its interests may appear. To the extent Construction Agent contracts directly with any contractor with respect to the Construction other than the General Contractor or the Developer and other than with respect to contracts for acquisition, delivery and/or installation of personal property, Construction Agent shall maintain or cause to be maintained a special form builders’ risk insurance in conformity with the above with respect to the work and materials to be performed under such direct contract.

Property Covered: The builder’s risk policy shall provide coverage for (a) the Facility, including buildings, all preliminary work, temporary works, non-temporary structures, machinery, equipment, facilities, fixtures, supplies and other property constituting part of the leased property including but not limited to boiler and machinery insurance covering pressure vessels, air tanks, boilers, machinery, pressure piping, heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment, and elevator and escalator equipment and other properties constituting the Facility, (b) coverage for foundations, including underground water and sewer mains, pilings and other

Other Insurance. Insurance shall not cover any terrorism or war risks unless Construction Agent carries insurance for such risks generally on similar property it owns or leases. To the extent any portion of the Facility is located in an area identified as a special flood hazard area by the Federal Emergency Management Agency or other applicable Authority, Construction Agent shall (i) obtain flood insurance for the Facility in an amount not less than the greater of (1) 100% of the replacement cost of the Facility, including any costs that may be required to cause the Facility to be reconstructed to comply with then current Applicable Laws and Regulations or (2) the aggregate amount of all Advances outstanding at any time, and (ii) require and shall ensure that such flood insurance at all times during the Construction Period name the Additional Insureds as an additional insured and Administrative Agent as loss payee, as its interests may appear.

Best’s or a claims paying rating of “A-” by S&P or by other insurers approved in writing by the Participants and shall be with such insurance companies as were approved by the Participants on the Closing Date. Each policy referred to in this Schedule shall provide that: (i) it will not be canceled, materially modified or its limits reduced, or allowed to lapse without renewal, except after not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to each of the Additional Insureds and Construction Agent provided, however, that with respect to the builders’ risk insurance policy to be maintained by the General Contractor, not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to each of the Administrative Agent and Construction Agent shall be

required for cancellation due to non-payment of premiums therefor; (ii) the interests of the Additional Insureds shall not be invalidated by any act or negligence of or breach of warranty or representation by Construction Agent or any Person having an interest in the Leased Property or the Site; (iii) such insurance is primary and non-contributory with respect to any other insurance carried by or available to any Additional Insured; (iv) the insurer shall waive customary rights of subrogation, setoff, counterclaim, or other deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise, against any additional insured or loss payee; (v) such policy shall contain a severability clause providing for coverage of each Additional Insured as if a separate policy had been issued to it; (vi) Construction Agent will notify each Additional Insured promptly of any policy cancellation, reduction in policy limits, lapse, modification or amendment; and (vii) the insurer shall waive all claims for premiums against the Additional Insureds.

Delivery of Insurance Certificates.

Pursuant to Section 2.1(c) of the Participation Agreement, Construction Agent shall deliver to each Additional Insured certificates of insurance satisfactory to it evidencing the existence of all insurance required to be maintained hereunder and setting forth the respective coverages, limits of liability, carrier, policy number and period of coverage. Thereafter, throughout the Construction Period, at the time each of Construction Agent’s insurance policies is renewed (but in no event less frequently than once every twelve (12) months) or upon written request by the Administrative Agent during the continuance of a Construction Event of Default, Construction Agent shall deliver to each Additional Insured certificates of insurance evidencing that all insurance required by this Schedule to be maintained by Construction Agent with respect to the Leased Property is in effect. Concurrent with the delivery of certificates required above, Construction Agent shall furnish each Additional Insured with a letter from an independent broker or the insurer(s) signed by an officer of the broker or insurer(s), stating that in the opinion of such broker or insurer(s) the insurance so carried is in compliance with this Schedule. Upon written request by the Administrative Agent, the Construction Agent will promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent copies of all insurance policies, applications, binders and cover notes or other evidence of insurance required to be maintained hereunder.

Construction Agent agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit any Additional Insured from maintaining its own insurance coverage, at the expense of such Person, which coverage shall not reduce the obligations of Construction Agent under this Schedule; provided, however, that no such insurance shall be maintained if its maintenance would prevent Construction Agent from maintaining insurance as to the Leased Property and the Site with insurers when required to do so herein.

No provision of this Schedule or any other Operative Document shall impose on any Additional Insured any obligation to verify the existence or adequacy of the insurance coverage to be maintained pursuant to this Schedule, nor shall any Additional Insured be responsible for any representations or warranties made by or on behalf of Construction Agent or any Cubic Person to any insurance company or underwriter. Any failure on the part of any Additional Insured to obtain the evidence of insurance required by this Schedule from Construction Agent and/or failure of any

such Person to point out any noncompliance of such evidence of insurance shall not constitute a waiver of any of the insurance requirements in this Schedule.
