(b) Borrower has taken reasonable measures appropriate to the circumstances (and in any event as required by law), to ensure that Borrower is in compliance with all current and future Anti-Money Laundering Laws and laws, regulations and government guidance for the prevention of terrorism, terrorist financing and drug trafficking.

(c) Borrower has taken reasonable measures appropriate to the circumstances (and in any event as required by law), with respect to each holder of an interest in Borrower, to ensure that funds invested by such holders in Borrower are derived from legal sources.

(d) Borrower requires, and has taken reasonable measures to ensure compliance with the requirement that neither Guarantor nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person who owns or controls a direct or indirect interest in Borrower is or shall be a Prohibited Person.

(e) All payments by Borrower to Lender or from Lender to Borrower will only be made and received in Borrower’s name and to and from a bank account of a bank based or incorporated in or formed under the laws of the United States or a bank that is not a “foreign shell bank” within the meaning of the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act (31 U.S.C. § 5311 et seq.), as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, as such regulations may be amended from time to time.

(f) Neither the Loan, nor Borrower’s use of the proceeds thereof, will violate the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto.

(g) Borrower shall deliver to Lender, upon Lender’s request at any time until the Indebtedness shall be paid in full, a certification confirming compliance with this Section 4.18 or such information as Lender reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any Anti-Money Laundering Law or Anti-Terrorism Law, or to respond to requests for information concerning the identity of Borrower or any of its Affiliates or any Person who owns a direct or indirect interest in Borrower, from any Governmental Authority, self-regulatory organization or financial institution in connection with its anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism compliance procedures, or to update such information. The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 4.18 shall be deemed repeated and reaffirmed by Borrower as of each date that Borrower makes a payment to Lender under any of the Loan Documents or receives any disbursement of Loan proceeds, reserve funds or other funds from Lender. Borrower agrees promptly to notify Lender in writing in the event that Borrower has reason to believe that any of the warranties and representations in this Section 4.18 are no longer correct.

The fair saleable value of Borrower’s assets is and will, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, be greater than Borrower’s total liabilities (including the maximum amounts of its subordinated, unliquidated, disputed, or contingent liabilities or its debts as such debts become absolute and matured). Borrower’s assets do not and will not, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur debts and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amount to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower).

Section 4.22 Margin Regulations. No part of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose which would be inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other Regulations of such Board of Governors, or for any purposes prohibited by applicable Legal Requirements.

ARTICLE 7

INSURANCE, CASUALTY, CONDEMNATION AND RESTORATION

Section 7.1 Types of Insurance. At all times during the term of the Loan, Borrower shall maintain, at its sole cost and expense, for the mutual benefit of Borrower and Lender, the following policies of insurance:

(a) Insurance with respect to the Improvements against any peril included within the classification “All Risks of Physical Loss” with extended coverage in amounts at all times sufficient to prevent Borrower from becoming a co-insurer within the terms of the applicable policies, but in any event such insurance shall be maintained in an amount equal to the full insurable value of the Improvements located on the Property. The policy referred to in this Section 7.1(a) shall contain a replacement cost endorsement and a waiver of depreciation. As used herein, “full insurable value” means the actual replacement cost of the Improvements (without taking into account any depreciation), determined annually by an insurer or by Borrower or, at the request of Lender, by an insurance broker (subject to Lender’s reasonable approval). In all cases where any of the Improvements or the use of the Property shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses under applicable Legal Requirements, the policy referred to in this Section 7.1(a) must include “Ordinance and Law Coverage,” with “Time Element,” “Loss to the Undamaged Portion of the Building,” “Demolition Cost” and “Increased Cost of Construction” endorsements, in the amount of coverage required by Lender;

(b) Comprehensive general liability insurance, including contractual injury, bodily injury, broad form death and property damage liability against any and all claims, including all legal liability to the extent insurable imposed upon Borrower and all court costs and attorneys’ fees and expenses, arising out of or connected with the possession, use, leasing, operation, maintenance or condition of the Property with a combined limit of not less than $2,000,000 in the aggregate and $1,000,000 per occurrence, plus $10,000,000 umbrella coverage.

(d) If all or any portion of the Property is located within a federally designated flood hazard zone, flood insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the full insurable value of the Property, (ii) the original Principal Indebtedness, and (iii) the maximum allowed under the related federal flood insurance program; and

(e) Such other insurance with respect to the Improvements located on the Property against loss or damage as requested by Lender (including liquor/dramshop, mold, fungus, hurricane, windstorm and earthquake insurance) provided such insurance is of the kind for risks from time to time customarily insured against and in such amounts as are generally required by institutional lenders for properties comparable to the Property or which Lender may deem necessary in its reasonable discretion.

Section 7.2 Insurer Ratings. Borrower will maintain the insurance coverage described in Section 7.1 with companies acceptable to Lender and rated not less than A in accordance with the latest “Best Insurance Guide”. All insurers providing insurance required by this Agreement shall be authorized to issue insurance in the state where the Property is located.

Section 7.3 Blanket Policy. The insurance coverage required under Section 7.1 may be effected under a blanket policy or policies covering the Property and other property and assets not constituting a part of the Property; provided that any such blanket policy shall provide coverage in an

amount and scope which is at least equal to what would be provided if the required coverage was purchased on an individual basis and which shall in any case comply in all other respects with the requirements of this Article 7.

Section 7.4 General Insurance Requirements.

(a) Borrower agrees that all insurance policies shall: (i) be in such form and with such endorsements and in such amounts as may be satisfactory to Lender; (ii) name Lender as an additional insured/loss payee and provide that all Insurance Proceeds be payable to Lender; (iii) contain a “Non Contributory Standard Lender Clause” and a Lender’s Loss Payable Endorsement or their equivalents naming Lender as the person to whom all payments shall be paid and a provision that payment of Insurance Proceeds in excess of the Restoration Proceeds Threshold shall be made by a check payable only to Lender; (iv) contain a waiver of subrogation endorsement as to Lender and its successors and assigns providing that no policy shall be impaired or invalidated by virtue of any act, failure to act, negligence of, or violation of declarations, warranties or conditions contained in such policy by Borrower, Lender or any other named insured, additional insured or loss payee; (v) contain an endorsement indicating that neither Lender nor Borrower shall be or be deemed to be a co-insurer with respect to any risk insured by such policies and shall provide for an aggregate deductible per loss for all policies not in excess of $25,000.00; (vi) contain a provision that such policies shall not be canceled or amended in any adverse manner, including any amendment reducing the scope or limits of coverage, without at least thirty (30) days prior notice to Lender in each instance; and (vii) with respect to commercial general liability, provide for claims to be made on an occurrence basis.

(b) In the event of foreclosure of the lien of the Mortgage or other transfer of title or assignment of the Property in extinguishment, in whole or in part, of the Indebtedness, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to all policies of casualty insurance covering all or any part of the Property shall inure to the benefit of and pass to the successors in interest to Lender or the purchaser or grantee of the Property or any part thereof.

Section 7.5 Certificates of Insurance and Delivery of Policies. Upon Lender’s request, certified copies of all insurance policies required pursuant to this Article 7 shall be promptly delivered to Lender. Certificates of insurance with respect to all renewal and replacement policies shall be delivered to Lender not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration date of any of the insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder and certified copies of such insurance policies shall be delivered to Lender promptly after Borrower’s receipt thereof. If Borrower fails to maintain the insurance required by this Agreement and deliver to Lender evidence of same and proof of payment as required hereunder, Lender may, at its option, procure such insurance, and Borrower shall reimburse Lender for the amount of all premiums paid by Lender thereon promptly, after demand by Lender, with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date paid by Lender to the date of repayment, and such sum shall be a part of the Indebtedness secured by the Loan Documents. All insurance premiums shall be paid annually in advance, and in no event shall Borrower finance any portion of the premiums for insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder. Lender shall not by the fact of approving, disapproving, accepting, preventing, obtaining or failing to obtain any insurance, incur any liability for or with respect to the amount of insurance carried, the form or legal sufficiency of insurance contracts, solvency of insurance companies, or the carriers’ or Borrower’s payment or defense of lawsuits, and

Borrower hereby expressly assumes full responsibility therefor and all liability, if any, with respect thereto. Borrower represents that no claims have been made under any of such insurance policies, and no party, including Borrower, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of any of such insurance policies.

Section 7.6 Restoration Proceeds.

(a) Any and all awards, compensation, reimbursement, damages, proceeds, settlements, and other payments or relief paid or to be paid, together with all rights and causes of action relating to or arising from, (i) any insurance policy maintained by or on behalf of Borrower following any damage, destruction, casualty or loss to all or any portion of the Property (a “Casualty”, and such proceeds, “Insurance Proceeds”) or (ii) any temporary or permanent taking or voluntary conveyance of all or part of the Property, or any interest therein or right accruing thereto or use thereof, as the result of, or in settlement of, any condemnation or other eminent domain proceeding by any Governmental Authority whether or not the same shall have actually been commenced (a “Taking”, and such proceeds, “Condemnation Proceeds”, and together with Insurance Proceeds, collectively, “Restoration Proceeds”) are hereby assigned to Lender as additional collateral security hereunder subject to the Lien of the Mortgage, to be applied in accordance with this Article 7. Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of any Casualty or Taking, and Lender shall be entitled to receive and collect all Restoration Proceeds, and Borrower shall instruct and cause the issuer of each policy of insurance described herein and any applicable Governmental Authority to deliver to Lender all Restoration Proceeds. Borrower shall execute such further assignments of the Restoration Proceeds as Lender may from time to time reasonably require. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Restoration Proceeds, less the amount of Lender’s costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred in collecting the same (the “Net Restoration Proceeds”), are $100,000 or less (the “Restoration Proceeds Threshold”), provided no Event of Default then exists, Lender shall make such Net Restoration Proceeds available to Borrower. All Insurance Proceeds received by Borrower or Lender in respect of business interruption coverage, and all Condemnation Proceeds received with respect to a temporary Taking, shall be deposited in a segregated escrow account with Lender and Lender shall estimate the number of months required for Borrower to restore the damage caused by such Casualty or replace cash flow interrupted by such temporary Taking, as applicable, and shall divide the aggregate proceeds by such number of months, and, provided no Event of Default then exists, shall disburse a monthly installment thereof to Borrower each such month. Subject to Lender’s rights under Section 7.7, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Restoration has been completed in accordance with this Agreement, any Net Restoration Proceeds available to Borrower for Restoration, to the extent not used by Borrower in connection with, or to the extent they exceed the cost of, such Restoration, shall be paid to Borrower.

(b) Lender shall be entitled at its option to participate in any compromise, adjustment or settlement in connection with (i) any insurance policy claims relating to any Casualty, and (ii) any Taking in an amount in controversy, in either case, in excess of the Restoration Proceeds Threshold, and Borrower shall within ten (10) Business Days after request therefor reimburse Lender for all reasonable out‑of‑pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with such participation. Borrower shall not make any compromise, adjustment or settlement in connection with any such claim in excess of the Restoration Proceeds Threshold or if an Event of Default then exists without the prior written approval of Lender. Borrower shall not make

any compromise, adjustment or settlement in connection with any claim unless same is commercially reasonable.

(c) If and to the extent Restoration Proceeds are not required to be made available to Borrower to be used for the Restoration of the Improvements affected by the Casualty or Taking, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, Lender shall be entitled, without Borrower’s consent, to apply such Restoration Proceeds or the balance thereof, at Lender’s option, either (i) to the full or partial payment or prepayment of the Indebtedness in accordance with Section 4(c) of the Note, or (ii) to the Restoration of all or any part of such Improvements affected by the Casualty or Taking, as applicable.

Section 7.7 Restoration. Borrower shall restore and repair the Improvements or any part thereof now or hereafter damaged or destroyed by any Casualty or affected by any Taking; provided, however, that if the Casualty is not insured against or insurable, Borrower shall so restore and repair even though no Insurance Proceeds are received. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 7.6, Lender agrees that Lender shall make the Net Restoration Proceeds (other than business interruption insurance proceeds, which shall be held and disbursed as provided in Section 7.6) available to Borrower for Borrower’s restoration and repair of the Improvements affected by the Casualty or Taking (a “Restoration”), as applicable, on the following terms and subject to Borrower’s satisfaction of the following conditions; provided, that Lender shall have the right to waive any of the following conditions in its discretion:

(a) At the time of such Casualty or Taking, as applicable, and at all times thereafter there shall exist no Event of Default;

(b) The Improvements affected by the Casualty or Taking, as applicable, shall be capable of being restored (including replacements) to substantially the same condition, utility, quality and character, as existed immediately prior to such Casualty or Taking, as applicable, in all material respects with a fair market value and projected cash flow of the Property equal to or greater than prior to such Casualty or Taking, as applicable;

(c) Borrower shall demonstrate to Lender’s reasonable satisfaction that such repair or restoration is feasible and that Borrower has the ability to pay the Indebtedness coming due during such repair or restoration period (after taking into account proceeds from business interruption insurance carried by Borrower);

(d) Borrower shall have provided to Lender all of the following, and collaterally assigned the same to Lender pursuant to assignment documents acceptable to Lender: (i) an architect’s contract with an architect reasonably acceptable to Lender and complete plans and specifications for the Restoration of the Improvements lost or damaged to the condition, utility and value required by Section 7.7(b); (ii) fixed-price or guaranteed maximum cost construction contracts with contractors reasonably acceptable to Lender for completion of the Restoration work in accordance with the aforementioned plans and specifications; (iii) such additional funds (if any) as are necessary from time to time, in Lender’s reasonable opinion, to complete the Restoration (which funds shall be held by Lender as additional collateral securing the Indebtedness and shall be disbursed, if at all, pursuant to this Article 7); and (iv) copies of all permits and licenses necessary to complete the Restoration in accordance with the plans and specifications and all Legal Requirements.

(e) Borrower shall commence such work within one hundred twenty (120) days after such Casualty or Taking, as applicable, and shall diligently pursue such work to completion;

(f) the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements.

Section 7.8 Disbursement.

(a) Each disbursement by Lender of such Restoration Proceeds shall be funded subject to conditions and in accordance with disbursement procedures which a commercial construction lender would typically establish in the exercise of sound banking practices, including requiring lien waivers and any other documents, instruments or items which may be reasonably required by Lender.

(b) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of Restoration Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as determined by Lender, less, as to each contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in a Restoration, an amount equal to the greater of (i) ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of such Restoration, as reasonably determined by Lender, and (ii) the amount actually withheld by Borrower (the “Casualty Retainage”). The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until Lender reasonably determines that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage.

No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of any Event of Default shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Event of Default or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. Any and all of Lender’s rights with respect to the Property shall continue unimpaired, and Borrower shall be and remain obligated in accordance with the terms hereof, notwithstanding (a) the release or substitution of the Property at any time, or of any rights or interest therein or (b) any delay, extension of time, renewal, compromise or other indulgence granted by Lender in the event of any Event of Default with respect to the Property or otherwise hereunder.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.1 Survival. This Agreement and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the execution and delivery by Borrower to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any portion of the Indebtedness is outstanding and unpaid; provided, however, that the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Sections 4.18 and 9.1 shall survive in perpetuity. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party. All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement contained, by or on behalf of Borrower, shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of Lender. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, express or implied, shall give to any Person other than the parties and the holder(s) of the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and their legal representatives, successors and assigns, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim hereunder.

Section 12.2 Lender’s Discretion. Whenever pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Lender exercises any right, option or election given to Lender to approve or disapprove, or consent or withhold consent, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender or is to be in Lender’s discretion, the decision of Lender to approve or disapprove, consent or withhold consent, or to decide whether arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory or acceptable or not acceptable to Lender in Lender’s discretion, shall (except as is otherwise specifically herein provided) be in the sole and absolute discretion of Lender.

Section 12.3 Governing Law; Venue.

(a) This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall be interpreted and enforced according to the laws of the state where the Property is located (without giving effect to rules regarding conflict of laws).

(b) Borrower hereby consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court sitting in the county and state where the Property is located with respect to any legal action or proceeding arising with respect to the Loan Documents and waives all objections which it may have to such jurisdiction and venue. Nothing herein shall, however, preclude or prevent Lender from bringing actions against Borrower in any other jurisdiction as may be necessary to enforce or realize upon the security for the Loan provided in any of the Loan Documents.

Section 12.4 Modification, Waiver in Writing. No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought, and then such

waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no notice to or demand on Borrower shall entitle Borrower to any other or future notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

Section 12.5 Delay Not a Waiver. Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in insisting upon strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege under any Loan Document, or any other instrument given as security therefor, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other future exercise, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment after the due date of any amount payable under any Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under any Loan Document, or to declare a default for failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount.

Section 12.6 Notices. All notices, consents, approvals and requests required or permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be given in writing and shall be effective for all purposes if sent by (a) hand delivery, with proof of attempted delivery, (b) certified or registered United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (c) expedited prepaid delivery service, either commercial or United States Postal Service, with proof of attempted delivery, addressed to the parties as follows:

If to Borrower:	Xxxxxxxx Industrial LLC 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Xxxx, X.X. Xxx 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx 00000 Attention: Xxxxxxx XxXxxxxxxx

A party receiving a notice which does not comply with the technical requirements for notice under this Section 12.6 may elect to waive any deficiencies and treat the notice as having been properly given. A notice shall be deemed to have been given: (a) in the case of hand delivery, at the time of delivery; (b) in the case of registered or certified mail, when delivered or the first attempted delivery on a Business Day; or (c) in the case of expedited prepaid delivery, upon the first attempted delivery on a Business Day. Communications between Borrower and Lender as to routine servicing matters, including any consents granted by Lender, may be made by email provided that the recipient acknowledges having received such email (with an automatic “read receipt” not constituting acknowledgment of an email for purposes hereof). Notice for any party may be given by its respective counsel. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the failure to provide a courtesy copy of any notice herein shall not void the effectiveness of such notice to Borrower.

Section 12.7 Trial By Jury. BORROWER AND LENDER, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THAT THEY MAY LAWFULLY DO SO, HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR

PROCEEDING, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY TORT ACTION, BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY HERETO WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

Section 12.8 Headings. The Article and Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

Section 12.9 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 12.10 Preferences. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower to any portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a payment or payments to Lender for Borrower’s benefit, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender.

Section 12.11 Waiver of Notice. Borrower shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents does not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.

Section 12.12 Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents, has acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under any Loan Document, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents, shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s sole remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking declaratory judgment.

Section 12.13 Exhibits Incorporated. The information set forth on the cover, heading and recitals hereof, and the Exhibits attached hereto, are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

Section 12.14 Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to the Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses

which are unrelated to the Loan and the Loan Documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon, the Loan Documents, and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

Section 12.15 No Joint Venture or Partnership. Borrower and Lender intend that the relationship created hereunder be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between any of Borrower, any contractor or Governmental Authority and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Property other than that of mortgagee or lender.

Section 12.16 Waiver of Marshalling of Assets Defense. To the fullest extent that Borrower may legally do so, Borrower waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, and of the Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of the interests hereby created, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Property for the collection of the Indebtedness without any prior or different resort for collection, or the right of Lender or any trustee under the Mortgage to the payment of the Indebtedness in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

Section 12.17 Waiver of Counterclaim. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against Borrower by Lender or Lender’s agents.

Section 12.18 Construction of Documents. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by counsel in connection with the negotiation and drafting of the Loan Documents and that the Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which drafted same.

Borrower and Lender hereby represent that they have dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement except as disclosed to Lender.

If Borrower has dealt with one or more of foregoing described Persons, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that such Persons may receive additional compensation and/or fees from Lender. The provisions of this Section 12.19 shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Indebtedness.

Section 12.20 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered (which may include delivery by facsimile or electronically by .pdf or other means) shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 12.21 Estoppel Certificates. Borrower and Lender each hereby agree at any time and from time to time, but in no event more than one time per calendar quarter, upon not less than fifteen (15) days prior written notice by Borrower or Lender, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to the party(ies) specified in such notice, a statement, in writing, certifying that this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same, as modified, is in full force and effect and stating the modifications hereto), and stating whether or not, to the knowledge of such certifying party, any Event of Default has occurred, and, if so, specifying each such Event of Default; provided, however, that it shall be a condition precedent to Lender’s obligation to deliver the statement pursuant to this Section 12.21, that Lender shall have received, together with Borrower’s request for such statement, a certificate of Borrower stating that no Event of Default exists as of the date of such certificate (or specifying such Event of Default).

Neither Borrower nor any Affiliate of Borrower shall contest the enforceability of this Section 12.22.

Section 12.23 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits hereto and the other Loan Documents, constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement, the Exhibits hereto and the other Loan Documents and supersedes all term sheets, prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

Section 12.24 Liability and Indemnification.

(a) Lender shall not be liable for any loss sustained by Borrower resulting from any act or omission of any Indemnified Party unless it is finally judicially determined that such loss was solely caused by the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender or any Indemnified Party. Lender shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability with respect to the ownership, operation and/or maintenance of the Property (including under any Contract or Permit) or under or by reason of any Loan Document. The Loan Documents shall not place responsibility for the control, care, management or repair of the Property upon Lender, nor for complying with any Contract or Permit; nor shall they make Lender responsible or liable for any waste committed on the

Property, or for any dangerous or defective condition of the Property, or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Property resulting in loss or injury or death to any tenant, licensee, guest, employee or stranger.

(b) Borrower shall indemnify and hold the Indemnified Parties harmless against any and all Losses, and reimburse them for any costs and expenses incurred, in connection with, arising out of or as a result of (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein, (ii) the creation, perfection or protection of Lender’s Liens in the Property (including fees and expenses for title and lien searches and filing and recording fees, intangibles taxes, personal property taxes, mortgage recording taxes, due diligence expenses, travel expenses, accounting firm fees, costs of the appraisal, environmental report(s) (and an environmental consultant), surveys and the engineering report(s) obtained by or delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan, (iii) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any amendment, waiver or consent relating to any of the Loan Documents, (iv) the exercise of any of Lender’s or the Indemnified Parties’ remedies under any Loan Document, or (v) any alleged obligations or undertakings to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability with respect to the ownership, operation and/or maintenance of the Property (including under any Contract or Permit), except to the extent that it is finally judicially determined that any such Loss resulted directly and solely from the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. If any Indemnified Party becomes involved in any action, proceeding or investigation in connection with any matter described in clauses (i) through (v) above, Borrower shall periodically reimburse any Indemnified Party upon demand therefor in an amount equal to its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the costs of any investigation and preparation) incurred in connection therewith to the extent such legal or other expenses are the subject of indemnification hereunder.

Section 12.25 Publicity. Lender shall have the right to issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials describing the Loan (including the amount and purpose of the Loan) and Lender’s participation in the origination of the Loan or the Loan’s inclusion in any Secondary Market Transaction effectuated or to be effectuated by Lender. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or their affiliates through any media intended to reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to Lender or any of its Affiliates shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender, except for disclosures required by law which shall not require Lender approval but which shall require prior notice to Lender.

Section 12.26 Time of the Essence. Time shall be of the essence in the performance of all obligations of Borrower hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents.

Section 12.27 Taxes. All payments made under the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority. If Borrower is required by law to deduct any of the foregoing from any sum payable under the Loan Document, such sum shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 12.27), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum Lender would have received had no such deductions been made. In the

event of the passage of any Legal Requirement subsequent to the date hereof in any manner changing or modifying Legal Requirements now in force governing the taxation of mortgages or security agreements or debts secured thereby or the manner of collecting such taxes so as to adversely affect Lender or the Lien of the Loan Documents, Borrower will pay any such tax on or before the due date thereof. In the event Borrower is prohibited by Legal Requirements from assuming liability for payment of any such taxes (or if any Legal Requirement would penalize Lender if Borrower makes such payment or if, in the reasonable opinion of Lender, the making of such payment might result in the imposition of interest beyond the Maximum Amount) or from paying any other Imposition, the outstanding Indebtedness shall, at the option of Lender, become due and payable on the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days after Lender provides notice to Borrower of such change in law and its election to accelerate the Maturity Date; and failure to pay such amounts on the date due shall be an Event of Default.

Section 12.28 Further Assurances. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender such documents, instruments, certificates, assignments and other writings, and do such other acts necessary, to (a) evidence, preserve and/or protect the Property at any time securing or intended to secure the Indebtedness, and/or (b) enable Lender to perfect, exercise and enforce Lender’s rights and remedies under any Loan Document, as Lender shall require from time to time in its discretion.
